Final Battle ~Opportunity~
Rainbow Road
Theme of the Last Time Travel
Ridiculously easy first match. What a weak, weak choice for Phoenix Wright's alt. You should've saved a song that at least had Round 2 pedigree for the alt, people!
Second match was interesting...until I got 10 seconds into Rainbow Road (having listened to Credits first) and that was that. It's not that Credits was *terrible*, just that Rainbow Road was awesome. Also, I liked Espionage X more. >_>
Third match was hilarious. I don't get the love for the Okami soundtrack, *at all*. Ryoshima Plains was just casual ambient music! It doesn't have a real ending, and no sense of payoff - it just keeps droning on and on and...you get the idea. Theme of the Last Time Travel not only has the decency to know when to end, but also has that amazing orchestral feel - most tracks don't pull off orchestra work succesfully, but boy does this one pull it off. It has a sort of 'quiet strength', if that makes any sense, as it can be simple background music, but by paying attention to it the small nuances and little details come out to the fore. And of course, it has its ending as an ace in the hole. Who'd think it'd build to such a powerful conclusion from that calm beginning?
Overall, three weak matches, but two of the six songs are great and a third one is pretty good. Theme of the Last Time Travel>>Rainbow Road>>Final Battle>>>Credits>Ryoshima Plains>>>>Elise Deauxnim.
