Especially considering we were so deep in the covid meme at the time they really pulled out all the stops. The game broke the glass and cashed in payoffs it had been building up for years here.

I think my only complaint is that the first phase of the fight should've had another track and To The Edge should've been saved for the climactic second half. Tsukuyomi had not one but THREE boss themes for the same fight, after all. Oh, and that Elidibus' villain redemption arc robbed us of 5.0-era Elidibusposting which was probably my favourite gag of all time in these threads.
