Nine Sols - Nine Sols
SaGa Emerald Beyond - Auld Lang Syne
Stella Glow - Hikari no Metamorphosis

MATCH 1

Nine Sols has a very cool alt rock sound with an incredible vocalist. I love her high notes and the vibrato in her voice during them like at 2:05.

X&Y Champion is a decent champion theme. I like the part at 0:11 the most. I don't remember if there's any champion themes I'm really into from the Pokemon series. I know for Elite Four themes, I really like Black and White's and Sun and Moon's Elite Four themes.

MATCH 2

Spring to Mind is not my thing. Honestly, I always ignore the Groove Coaster machine when I go to the arcade lol.

Auld Lang Syne was another song I was watching in the last hours of nominations. I really like the vocals and there's some cool electronic stuff going on in the background as well. I like that one higher-pitched melody at 0:14 especially.

MATCH 3

This is a cool Brinstar Depths arrangement. I always liked that melody at 0:32-0:44.

Hikari no Metamorphosis is in the dramatic flavor of anisong, and it sounds great! As is often the case with these songs, the chorus is great and definitely one of the highlights of this song. Funny enough, for a while, I didn't know that several songs I liked in the video game sphere were sung by Konomi Suzuki. Besides this song, it was some of the OPs and EDs from Summer Pockets (specifically, Alkatale from the base game and then Asterlore from Reflection Blue for the OPs, and Lasting Moment for the ED), and those songs were what made me make the connection. Days of Dash from the anime The Pet Girl of Sakurasou is the song that put her on my radar by name as a singer. "This Game" from No Game No Life is also really good.
