13: Blooming Season
Simultaneously flamboyant and powerfully elegant, this remix fits the character perfectly! The application of the trumpets and strings over the more standard pop percussion give it a party feel, but there's also a serious edge to it. It's like a Persona 5 track, almost. The upcoming 17.5 has resurged some interest in this theme, and I'm more than pleased about it. I wish I could find the lyrics, though. 8/10
14: Dancing Doll
The jagged soundfonts ruin this piece for me. I can't tell what mood they're going for; elegant, intense, or some rectification of the two. When they drop the the electric guitar (or whatever it's supposed to be) and commit to the more elegant side, they exhibit some potential for the piece. But the choice of instrument for carrying the main melody derails the thing completely. 5/10
15: A Star of Hope Arises in the Blue Sky
Anybody else notice the lack of chiptune arrangements on the shrine? This isn't the best I could pull out, but I believe it showcases what the style is capable of. The sharper sounds add an intensity to the track without loosing the feeling of heroic committal from the original. There's a uniqueness of sound in this area, and there's at least a few artists out there that are willing to get creative with it. 8/10
