Minor spoiler for the current event, but I love the way the game characterised Raiko. She's so wholesome in this iteration:

ClumsyRecord - Fight it out! A bit tamer than I set out to find, and surprisingly reminiscent of flip-cup-flop from the Unreal Mahjong soundtrack (something to do with the accompaniment harmony, I think). There was another arrangement by a circle called Watermill, but the audio quality was poor, so I decided to go with this instead. Rami - Moment:_ Fun-though-confusing animation aside, I appreciate the tone of this arrangement. I'm not sure if it's the genre or musician's style, but it reminds me of Sonic Colour's Aquarium Park; chill, but with an active energy, mostly communicated through the contrast of the melody on piano and the accompaniment on lighter synth elements. However, I will admit to struggling at finding the familiar Sailor of Time motifs in this remix. Hopefully it's just me. RichaadEB - Strawberry Crisis!! Mostly as contrast to the previous features, but also because almost every arrangement of this piece is over-the-top symphonic metal, I went with a more straightforward but still high-energy metal remix. Perhaps this won't be a new listen for anyone, but I hope it will at least be an entertainingly fresh one.

So... the conclusion is that ZUN cannot draw adult-looking characters, it seems.
