Suna no Shiro -The Castle of Sand- No Turning Back Snowfield Match 1 is, guess what, another ridiculously strong one. With this one, its clear to me that there are parts in Balearic Birds (1:29-1:42, 2:10-2:24) that I like more than any part in The Castle of Sand, but The Castle of Sand is more overall consistent in how much I like it. Also, Balearic Birds looks like the underdog here and who doesnt like an underdog going for the win? So I will be happy with either one winning this. I didnt vote for Live & Learn this time! I voted for Credits Song instead. Crush 40 has nothing on the catchiness of Weapons drawn, oh somethings wrong. Also, there's Love Psalm, Nocturnal, Deserted, and Shining Eyes in there. Bracket A is deep. --- Tune in to over a decade of VGM history with the VGMC playlists! (Work in progress, currently VGMC1-12) https://pastebin.com/JUNkGWQ4 ... Copied to Clipboard!

[-Aka-] - Suna no Shiro -The Castle of Sand- Blue Reflection: Second Light - A Hopeful Astraea The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC - The Merciless Savior A Hopeful Astraea to round 4 is not the result I had in mind when filling out the favorites bracket, but it'd be a very welcome one. Merciless Savior over Snowfield is the round 3 result I had in my favorites bracket, but it still feels a little sad to vote against Snowfield, even with as lopsided of a match as it is for me. ...
