The beat lengths aren't the same between your suggestions.

Whoops! You're right. Not sure what I was thinking at the time. Hehe.

I couldn't play the LH An (and I added them at the bottom of the RH), so I removed them. Your suggestion is ignorant of the melody in the RH, but if the 9th comes up again, I can move the Bn up an octave in the LH.

That works!

Hi! Just thought I'd chime in and offer some visual feedback. I haven't checked for note accuracy.

I think all grace notes should be tied.

m1&3- RH beat 3.25, these should be dotted eighth notes (so there should be no ties), like how you have them in m11&12.

m4- LH rests, should be a dotted eighth rest rather than the 16th+quarter rests you have.
 
m5- In the RH, the first two beats in the second layer should be a tied 8th note to 16th note (F#), then a dotted eighth (A)

m11- LH beat 1. This might be unplayable for most people. I would move the dotted eighth note (C#) to the RH, at least for the dotted eighth note, and then move the RH E an octave below. So it would look like (C#-A-E-C#) . And then for the 16th note, I would either add the C# and remove the top note (A) so it becomes (E-A-C#) or put the C# in between what you currently have, so it becomes (A-E-C#-A).

m16- LH, the eighth rest should be moved a little further down.

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to tackle this long and complex song. Everything you've pointed out has been addressed.

Happy birthday, NSM! Only one more year left to the legal drinking age. 

Noticed a playback error on "MNN+@0・ (Ma-non Ship (Day))" where it kept repeating endlessly. I fixed it so that it only loops once. Could someone please update the files? Thanks in advance!

And sharing this one, just in case!

Sorry, this took so long!

Files have been updated per Latios' comments. (Btw, I'm glad you like the lead sheets! Still have a few more songs to add to the catalogue haha)

General changes to the sheet:
-Measure system-wise, the previous file felt cluttered. Decreased to 2 measures per system (not all of them)
-Revamped most of the LH part
-Added guitar voice (m2-4), piano chords (m7, 9, 10, 13, etc.), strings (m27-29, 68, 69, etc.)
-Guitar solo (m60-67) has been tweaked a bit to be more pianistic

Hi! Sorry for the wait. I just wanted to prioritize my other sheet for the update. Now that it is on-site, I can shift my focus back to this one.

That being said, I'm currently out of town. I intend to get back to this as soon as I can.

Files are updated.

Thank you Latios! 

Wonderful! And I'm really sorry it took me another month to finish checking the notes. Here's my remaining feedback!

No worries!

- The RH lower layer beat 1 of m. 53 sounds like an F# instead of D

Did you mean m. 54? If so, I changed it per your feedback.

- Last RH note of m. 57 sounds like G instead of E

Are you suggesting G-D (currently written as E-D) in beat 4? I don't hear the G. :S

Not a lot, everything you have here is really solid! I mostly just have one last thing to comment on. It feels like the presence of harmonies in much of the right hand across pages 4-6 is inconsistent at times. You've already kicked into full gear at m. 49 and started including fuller harmonies in the right hand, but there are times where you have exposed octaves and single notes which feel a bit out of place when it feels like there should be a fuller texture everywhere throughout this section. Let me know if you want any specific suggestions, but what I'd recommend is generally just more harmony (that should be pretty easy to fit to the chords) on the places where you have the melody in octaves or single notes.

Added the harmonies in this section, though I'm open for any suggestions.

Everything else has been addressed.

Thanks Latios212. I'm happy to spread joy... (er...sadness and hopefulness I guess haha) of this song. Mitsuda is an absolute legend.

Everything has been fixed.

Any particular reason the left hand is split into two layers there? It makes sense but it's a bit odd to see it like that just in the first two measures and then going back to one layer for the rest of the section.

Oh right. I believe I was playing around with the layers. My first version had the second layer in the RH, then I moved it over to the LH. I must have forgotten to revert it back.

^all done. Thanks for your help, Bloop!

Everything has been updated accordingly.

For other updaters: I received further clarification on the stem directions and rests from Bloop in a private message.

-m63: Similarly here in beat 3-4, I'd arrange the trumpets instead of the strings (so D, E and C# in the same rhythm as in beat 1-2)

I think I hear E, D, B.

I struggled a bit on the placement of the lyrics as they tended to clash with many things. It is not perfect.

As always, feedback is appreciated. Have a great day!

Ooh! Looks spiffy. Nice work to all who contributed.

Congrats everyone!
