2 songs each round. You can add explanations if you want.
1st one will be a theatrical music video. Something like general music videos, anime openings or game trailers.
2nd one will be OST or music with a still image background.
So basically one judged on the theatrics and the other judged only on music.
Theatrics will still be judged on music but it will also be judged on what is going on in the video. 2nd one is specifically music based.
Not rated because it is subjective and doubt I have time and effort to argue for a standard in this debate.
R1: a
love the minimalist feel, the slow mo and matching with the song was great: and the quiet build up really felt theatrical : 8
B: this reminded me of Royksop, love the down tempo and softer feel, struck a great emotional chord with me: 8
R2: alove me some MGS, great game, but Imo the trailer didn’t age well. The build up was great prior to the main drop, but the rest was a bit disjointed: 5
B: this brought back memories! The song is not the best Zelda song in my opinion, but it’s a nice soft tune that brings back some good memories! 7
R3: a) this was just a bit odd; kinds snazzy but get a little cookie cutter: 4
B.) this is a really unique song, very funky, kinda jazzy and not the type of thing I’ve heard year in any battle, this really grew on me, and made me think a little of a take on jamiraqui- I really, really liked this one! 9
R4a) build up was great, song was not: the build up and fight was good then kinda fizzles out: 5
R4b) average metal shouty track: goes well with the game style imo, but I can’t tell whether it’s a great song or not: 6
R5a) ugh Avril lavigne: 5
B.) Ugh Avril Lavigne: 5
Total: 62
R1: a: seemed a bit of a knock off of pros round 1 in terms of game feel, but the music seemed out of place with the song: 5
B: I heard this in another anime debate. I loved the feel of this, and the variations of tocata and fugue in d! 8
R2: a very theatric feel! This one went brilliantly with the music, the first major fight really synched up perfectly, but got a little more disjoint at the 2 minute mark. It peaked then and didn’t recover. Still great: 8
B: great song, really conjoured up the right feelings of emotion: 8
R3: a.) this was just an odd mash up. The song didn’t go with the visuals well at all; while the song was good, it was a terrible visualization: 3
B.) a nice middle of the road emotional song, hearing the low quality synth backing violin let the song down a bit for me; but wasn’t too bad: 7
R4: a) this did nothing for me at all. No context, no direction, visuals didn’t go well with the song, I’m not even sure what this was: 3
B.) this was just a rap song. There didn’t seem to be anything particular special, it wasn’t for anything in particular, nor was it an ost: it wasn’t that great so 6
R5a:) ugh another song that failed to sync up or match up in anyway with the video, it’s just a rap song and clips of vikings: 4
R5b nice dramatic theme, kinda cookie cutter basic attempt: it was good but not great: 7.
Total 59
Pro wins 62/59
This is too long :/ I don't have the time
You were going to use Avril Lavigne or Attack on Titan even though in previous pickings none of them had to do with them?
Clearly false about the similar part. You can use courtesy call Attack on Titan as your number 1 because that wasn't the one I picked. It was my second choice. Since I was only allowed 1 for each you could have easily used my Attack on Titan Courtesy call if you wanted to.
No, what you did was link extra so that I couldn't use it myself or use something similar to it without seeming filthy.
To people who don't know what I did was. I added more than 1 song that could have been what I picked. That is not going to be voted on instead can simply be another song to listen to. I thought I didn't need to say this but since my opponent doesn't understand I am sure there are other people who won't understand either.
