All Of The Above Points. I Love When I See A Post About The Musicality Of A Piece. Much Appreciated For

All of the above points. I love when I see a post about the musicality of a piece. Much appreciated for putting into words what some of us can't!

Now that the live stream has concluded 45 minutes ago, and The Wisdom Saga is now live on Spotify, I spent some of my time to listen to the songs again (without headphones, I know I might've missed a few hints on the instruments and arrangements.)

So for now, here's my notes for this Saga (musically and story wise):

Legendary

The youthful touch of this song is just what this saga needs. MICO as Telemachus was a wonderful choice. His voice bounces within the song, and he sounds similar to Jorge's so it's like... He is his dad's son.

Story wise? It laid down a clear picture of what's happened 7 years later. His need to be stronger to protect his mother safe, especially that Ody's away.

It sounds like it's wishful thinking in a song.

Little Wolf

Oh my god, my anger in this song. I was scowling the whole time. Jorge is so good at painting a picture in the song. The taunting in the song, the way they challenge Telemachus.

I love how this songs sounds like a video game soundtrack, like Tekken (and the way the animatic looked like Tekken). Athena's entrance? Amazing. Telemachus being a geeky kid? AMAZING! He's such a kid, I love it!

I love Athena so much!!!

We'll Be Fine

Teagen's voice? Angelic! I thought her very best song was My Goodbye, but she really topped it with this one. I loved how she and Telemachus' sang Odysseus' melody in Warrior of The Mind. It's a wonderful touch that shows they're both longing for the same person.

The way MICO sounds so youthful??? He sounds so geeky and a teenager who's so excited about something. It's adorable!

Ody and Telemachus really see Athena as a friend. It's so touching.

Love In Paradise

This is the song I'VE BEEN SO EXCITED FOR (along with God Games). One thing I love: the flashbacks. Jorge really did a great job with the placement and tied every saga perfectly. I literally had chills when she finally saw what happened in Thunder Bringer.

Calypso. Calypso, my darling. Her voice is just so pure, so summery. She gave me summer vibes, seriously. It's kinda reminds me of TWICE's Alcohol Free, for real. Oh my god.

We've heard clips of this song before, and now that they recorded this song again, they sound so mature and clear. Oh god, I love this song so much!

Odysseus really be losing his mind. He was really losing it. Athena is the only one who can save her, and the way he screamed Athena's name. Oh my god, it broke me so hard!!

God Games

Luke Holt's voice... That's it. He sounds so big and scary. I love how his voice digs deep, the growls, it's even better than Thunder Bringer.

I was so excited about Apollo's voice. I did imagine him to sound a little cute, kinda like Yuuji in the English dub lol! So adorable! The little harp melody!! Uggh!!

HEPHAESTUS!!! okay, okay, the way he sang "Trust is not given not forged" was in the tune of Scylla and Mutiny ("I will not let you get into my way"), and it's UGGHH because that's the part where TRUST was tested. Oh my god JORGE!!!!

Aphrodite and Ares, my little sweethearts! Ngl, the animatic between Aphro and Athena was... Ughhhh!! I love Ares, I'VE ALWAYS LOVED ARES! Their voices fit them so well!! Athena fighting back to Ares for badmouthing Telemachus??? Holy shit.

Hera is so groovy!!!! So so groovy!!! I can imagine her throne room as a little dance floor!! And Zeus!!! Oh my god, Luke Holt!!! LUKE HOLT!!! PLEASE!!! STOP I'M OBSESSED!!!!

And Athena, oh my god. I wanna hug her. Her voice when she sang "let him go, please." Oh God, it's hurting me so bad. The animatic really didn't help because I was bawling!!!!

In conclusion, Jorge you smart and amazing person! You are creating a masterpiece!!!! This will be so big on stage, I can't wait till that happens!!!!

My favorite thing:

When Yusaku plays a card too quickly and Ai has to scrunch back into the duel disk to avoid getting smacked.

Look at him.

LOOK UPON THIS WRETCHED CREATURE

I will never get over the unparalleled comedy of robot characters learning How To Human from autistic characters.

The idea of the magic card "Swords to plowshares" is essentially that target creature rejects the way of the sword and becomes a farmer instead, hence you lose them as a combatant but gain the health from their farming.

This is really fuckin funny in conjunction with a lot of potential targets for that card. Can you just imagine you're an average farmer in an MTG plane, have a normal-ass day, and all of a sudden you look to the east, and stretching up past the clouds you see Ulamog, the despoiler, one of the infamous eldrazi titans, a creature that corrupts all that is good by its mere presence. And all the enormous bastard is doing is using their massive fuckin tendrils to plow the land and plant potatos, and tend to their flocks of eldrazi spawn, and then it turns its eyeless head thats the size of several cities at you and tips its wide brimmed straw hat at you and continues going about its work.

Yugioh went "gardeners are actually inherently a little Fucked Up In The Head and Crave Violence." and they were so real for that.

Unsolicited thoughts. Keep what you like. Disregard what you like. Scroll by as it suits, lol. Freewill is good like that.

Situational awareness matters.

McDonald's is a real estate company.

Google is an advertising agency.

Meta/BookFace is a data mining company.

Disney is a political machine.

We are collateral before citizens.

We are products before customers.

Media & reality TV are Roman circuses.

The govt & Fed is serving Roman bread.

The Central banks are a cabal.

WW3 is actually WW4 and started long ago. Pray for the non-power players in all theatres that are having their days and nights ripped apart in ways we cannot fully understand. The fifth columns will be what impacts the proletariat the most IMO, for good or bad, on every front.

1984 and T2 apparently should have been studied and reflected upon more.

Still believe in hope and humanity.

Chase the day. Walk by faith, even when it's the size of a mustard seed.

Sort your priorities. Resort as needed. Declutter things around you to declutter your mind.

Protect your clan. Help it thrive. Accomplishing that does not always have to come at the expense of others.

Be generous IRL when you can. It's better than throwing money, etc at things you're not around in your regular life.

Pray for people you care about. Pray for people you're peeved at. This is a winning strategy.

Unproductive emotions cost too much. Let it out and make decisions to do something you actually can accomplish. Stewing in a funk doesn't do much.

Get off your phones more. Touch grass.

Talk to people IRL more about things so you're aware and can digest things and form your own views and opinions and priorities.

Listen to things you agree with and don't agree with and form your own thoughts. Be okay changing your mind.

Find ways to keep whatever is roaring at you at white noise levels.

Make time to enjoy the silly fun IRL.

Don't let the Internet of Things rile you so far you find unreasonable fault in decent humans in your life that might not be clones of your current priorities and views of the world.

Inappropriate laughter is a valid cope.

Good hearted fun laughter is a necessary emotion. It's not the same when it happens online vs IRL.

Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.

The Buff is forever.

Stay classy.

Have the grooviest day possible always wherever the day takes you.
