Now this is a classic VGM jam right here! I've been seeing requests for this song since the beginning of GaMetal. Back then we just called it 'Battle for Everyone's Souls', but it's now officially known as Battle Hymn of the Soul.
It's remained such a strong request, that you all voted it up to the #5 spot on the 2021 GaMetal Song Ballot (tied with Revenge from Everhood), and was the #1 most requested Persona song.
So let's get to it!

15 years later and still not any other persona game cant surpass this theme and moment in the story, how much it did impact in my life. Just like Nyx Avatar said: "It doesnt matter who you are, death awaits you" , its the reason to live your life to the fullest, achieve your dreams and love your family and friends. Dont leave this world with any regrets. Also your sacrifice will never be forgotten Minato Arisato (AKA Door kun).
