D4 stats, it's the home stretch! In classic Board 8 fashion, the two contenders are To Far Away Times with 7 R4's and 4 R5's, then EXEC_CHRONICLE_KEY/. with 6 R4's and 4 R5's! Third place would have been Fight the Tower with 4 R4's and 3 R5's (oops)

Fight the Towers a painful loss, though thankfully POP TEAM BATTLE carries on the banner of triumphant chiptunes.

This exact mentality is why we should just go straight to extension rather than bothering with a tiebreaker

Another tie, another song Im strongly rooting for to win the breaker. I know CHRONICLE KEY can do it.

D3 one-rounder rankings:

Tier 1: Give Me Money!, Let It Die ~always see you there~, And Yet It Wanes

Tier 2: Moonlight Canyon, Soy Sauce for Geese, sometimes i breathe, Fullmetal Fighter, hinagiku (another version)

This Tier 2 is full of FM, uncanny atmosphere, and Kirby, all of which have something to like about them.

One of the reasons I didnt make a favorites bracket is that picking favorites for a whole bracket is really hard. Now that the field has been halved* and Ive heard every song here are my most wanted retirees as of the start of round 2:

Bracket A: Kobito of Shining Needle (runner-up), Moonlight Concert, KANNANSHINKU, Beat the Diamonds (winner)
Bracket B: Battle on the Sea (runner-up), Suna Gin, My Dark Disquiet (winner), Remnants of Celestial
Bracket C: Frozen Moonlight (runner-up), Festival of Dionysus, Miss Conductor (winner), Rampage
Bracket D: Song of Mourning (runner-up), Millenium Spark, They Who Govern Reason, The Grand Finale (winner)

To recap, my surviving predictions are:

Bracket A: NULL APOPHENIA (winner)
Bracket B: Shutoko - Spiral Maze (winner)
Bracket C: Frozen Moonlight (runner-up), Arlosa Mine, Labyrinth IV - Echoing Library
Bracket D: Sight of Silence (winner), Banbard

Im not high on most of these except for Arlosa Mine, Shutoko, and of course Frozen Moonlight. My prediction bracket is mainly an amusement at this point.

*except for the tiebreaker, but The Grand Finale is my number one regardless of the outcome.
