Oh my fucking god this eight pack. Almost every song is a damn banger. Even the two worst songs here are pretty decent. This might either be the best, or second best R1 day for me looking ahead.

I think I missed a day. Why are The Landing and The Extreme right next to each other in the bracket? That's going to be a stupid SFF round 2 match.

Easy choices today. I've always loved FFV's main theme.

Crazy Chocobo is a funny concept but I don't enjoy actually listening to it at all

Speaking of FFIV, Rydia's Theme and the Normal Battle theme are glaring omissions from this contest. It's a shame more people wanted to nominate Crazy Chocobo as a goof than recognize these absolute classics. Shame on you

Prelude is good, but The Extreme is a masterpiece. If only X's final battle theme were nearly as good

I don't think Crazy Chocobo was a goof, plenty of people really like it! But yes there are notable omissions.

You did miss a day, poor Matoya! And idk, that's where they fit and I thought it might be a fun matchup. Also I had no idea how Crazy Chocobo would do!

round one can quite frankly kiss my ass

these not ff iv pixel remastered videos are starting to get out of hand i actually prefer the pixel remaster of the ffv theme lol whoops >>

i don't really like crazy chocobo, but the song is so batshit i have to applaud it for existing.

i remember falling asleep to the prelude the first time i played ffx because i made the bold decision to play during a sleepover at like 4 am. i feel bad about voting against it now lol but the extreme does so much cool shit and set dressing. i love the distortion.

I've kind of lost interest in the contest in general, but I still feel passionate about super old-school FF music, so I'll vote in the second match today! It doesn't matter much to me who wins it.
