I'm honestly surprised you haven't covered Broken Sun and Merciful Broken Sun yet since Adam Gubman composed them 😅

[@galeria_m]

Which do you guys prefer over Broken Sun and Merciful Broken Sun? I prefer Broken Sun over the Merciful one ngl

I like merciful broken sun

[@StablePlutonium]

I think merciful broken sun is the continuation of broken sun.

[@otagamexe2004]

Well, she is indeed under Kal'tsit orders, Ascalon is the head of the secret S.W.E.E.P. squad who are basically an assassins' squad among Rhodes Island, dealing with inside and outside problems secretly and problems that need to be dealt secretly, which is at some point pretty straight-forward. I feel like this song is the kind of song that people like more and more as they listen to it again and again and as they obtain more info on the character.

[@Silverhorse777]

2:55 Yes, that's what I was thinking too! It's a perfect modern James Bond theme, especially given who Ascalon is in the plot. Yes, the song itself clashes a lot in your head, especially in terms of lyrics, unlike many other Arknights EPs, but the more you're listening to that, the more catchy it becomes, as others noticed here.

[@galeria_m]

you're torn about this? dont worry, us too

[@the_maskedman]

I feel like the more I listen to this song the more I enjoy it. It feels like something that could fit in the Metal Gear series (no, its not the "What a thrill" part... probably). Definitely not one of my top picks, but its still a nice surprise when it comes on during my playlist shuffle

[@chaosstripe9446]

You should definitely do Broken Sun and Merciful Broken Sun next. Also as others have said, this seems highly inspired by Adele and the James Bond song Skyfall. This makes sense since Ascalon's job basically is spying and assassinating, though wether the style is more James Bond or Agent 47 is a topic for debate.

[@kalleparkkinen6457]

For some reason this reminds me of adele and yeah bond movies

[@SoilworkWT]

I really like melody in this, but lyrics are killing it for me. Not the voice itself, just lyrics, especially chorus.

[@velen2531]

Interesting. I was not a fan of this one really, which is a pity since the character is great. Was nice to hear you pick apart and put to words what my qualms were with it since I find it really hard to pinpoint what it is I do or don't like about music, and I think you might have hit the nail on the head with this one.

[@LahiruVIP]

oh im early, im wondering if you could do some reacting to some of the lobby theme or battle themes of arknights. two i can recommend is near light lobby theme , here a people shows lobby theme and Zwillingstürme im Herbst battle theme - Der Hexenkönig

[@Nakirakira]

Oh yeah AK have a new EP

[@HIWTYLSL]

Now that I look back on what he’s gone over, have we not had him react to Wrathful cerulean flame yet? But if he has, I think he should do the 2 broken suns songs

[@voltorian-games]

not personally a big fan of this song. i'm not actually sure how to describe the characteristics of the music that i like. it's nice to see what others pick up on a song analysis though also day 2 of suggesting "the shadows" by taishi. context in day 1

[@akmalrisyadhakim9089]

Yow, good sir, I just finished watching some of your Arknights reaction videos, and I believe you haven't reacted to Arknights EP Autumn Moods. Please tell me if I made a mistake, otherwise, it would be great if you can check this one out. Anyway, love your videos man, cheers!

[@SenbonTokoyami]

It's a pity that Control's Wish wasn't played with pv.

[@Haptic_Sensation]

This song is definitely for more of a niche audience. It’s good for what it is but I personally don’t like it that much, it feels like it’s lacking something for me. Maybe once she releases for global I’ll like it more.
