Dialga's Fight to the Finish! Purple Town abstain for now This may be the last "amazing" day of music for me.... everything here got at least a 9.0 except To Far Away Times, and even that one is my top 100. I need to re-listen tomorrow to decide the third match, but I'm leaning towards Azure. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is a party?"

Dialga's Fight to the Finish! Purple Town Moonlight Concert Well, here it is. Retirement round. I had my doubts, but the princes beat three great tracks on the road to here, and today they stand at the door of glory. It has been an absolutely fantastic time, and here's really hoping they can make the last push to the Top 16! As for Azure... well, I used to find it a really weak song, but it's slowly grown on me. Nonetheless, I don't doubt it's a surprising, but fierce rival to the throne of A2. I feel absolutely satisfied whatever the result is today, because damn if Round 4 at first appearence doesn't mean strength. But I know it can get even better. Good luck! Match 1 and 2. Yeah, hmm.... Dialga and Far Away are both great, but my horse it's always PMD. I still respect Northeast a lot, but I'm closely siding to Purple. Come on, the armonica cat moves mountains. Great retiree either way. As for the drawing, well it's 5 AM and I almost never draw Lea or the Wolf, so I don't feel it's a beast of an artwork by any means. Depending of how tomorrow goes, it might be just a warmup, though! For now, please accept this art. I have so much fun doing these!https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/2/3/4/AAfGkeAAEtFS.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Match 1 is probably the lowest quality R3 match this year. They're both very whatever tracks that don't have anything interesting in them. I guess TFAT's melody is better, so it'll get my vote. Now on to the retirement round. Both of these songs are very good. I do think Purple Town's lead synth needs to be less bright, which will be the main thing that'll take it a notch below NE Frost Street, but it's still a really solid composition. I'd be fine with either of these retiring. Moonlight Concert is one I didn't expect to get this far, but it is very good, so I'm good with it. Azure Archipelago is also nice, but it's definitely a step below in quality from Moonlight. R3 ended on a bad note, but the start of R4 is looking very promising (even if all my noms are dead already).

To Far Away Times Northeast Frost Street Azure Archipelago The two best songs are in r1 but I still have a very clear preference between the two. Dialga good but at the end of the day, TFAT is way better in my eyes. NFS is great and one of the better FL songs for sure, but I'm surprised to see it made it this far. The last two songs are good except one has annoying vocals and the other doesn't so it's a pretty easy vote there. --- Fox Only, Final Destination. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Dialga's Fight to the Finish! Northeast Frost Street Azure Archipelago Match 1 is a tricky pick, they're both very good songs. I think this is genuinely the last time I will ever pick this way for this matchup, but I'm sticking with it. Best of luck to both! R4 starts off with a pretty good matchup between Kirby and Border Down! While not my favorite song from Forgotten Land, I really liked Frost Street to begin with and it's only grown on me more at this point. Purple Town's harmonica has always been the best lead-in for the rest of the song for me, and the synths are still a delight to listen to. Very close match for me here! Being in VGMC for this long has definitely made me appreciate songs like Moonlight Concert more, with its folksy vibes and its Umineko/Gust-like vocals. But I gotta give it to Azure Archipelago here, its pleasant beach vibes with those steel drums are a combo I will always adore. ... Copied to Clipboard!
