Rules:

- Listen to both of the songs. Links have conveniently been provided for both songs. Even if Song A is your favorite of all-time and Song B is from a series you hate... Listen. To. Both. (If I have suspicions your vote is not based on a fair and impartial preference, it will be disqualified.)
- Obvious contest rules apply (no alts, one vote per person, no rallying, etc.).
- Please make your voting options clear, rather than burying them in text.
- Each set of matches lasts 24 hours, even if the new one isnt up by then.
- Always vote on the versions of the song provided, not versions from different sources.
- If you know ahead of time that you're not going to be around and you want to vote in advance, post your choices in the discussion/bracket topic.
- Please do NOT post tallies/score updates in the middle of the match, as this has a tendency to directly influence matches.
- You don't have to vote in all the matches, but it'd be cool if you did!

End of All (Land)

Even if I disagree with who the winner of that match should've been, MOtC vs Trombe easily, both of those songs rule.

End of All, I guess.

Thought I knew for sure what I'd go with, but now that I listen to both back-to-back, it's a very close match. My vote almost feels arbitrary.

Would be kinda funny the 16 seed take the tournament, especially considering its title.

Hidra Heteromycin

It's beyond frustrating that End of All made it past Stage 2, let alone being in the semis.

you know, i never really thought of either of these as favorites, but this still isn't too bad for a semifinal match i guess. i like this matchup more than choices 4, 5 & 7 on the poll today for sure. and possibly 1 & 6 (i don't remember Dark Cloud Main Theme).

Vote:
Hidra Heteromycin

In an ideal world:
Fallen Angel > Twilight of the Gods

twilight of the gods advanced out of the 25% of the bracket without any of my nominations, but it totally deserves to be here - what a great find

but fallen angel was one of my pet songs this year - after it lost last year by one vote in round 1 to a song that would go on to retire in a match that barely broke 20 votes, i wanted it to give it another chance, and i'm very happy with its run in the actual contest

in the ideal bracket it advances to the finals where it will likely get squished by true hero but who knows
