I would rather they just focus on one person per episode


I'd rather that happen too, but I think the documentary's intent is to chart development across a range of people in a somewhat chronological way, and not to be hyperfocused portraits. The non-comments (which, yes, I agree, are dull and don't contribute much, although I do understand the desire to show some sort of "ripple effect") by unrelated musicians will only begin to annoy me if they become prominent. But they make up a very small part of the current video, and I can't be bothered to get worked up over them.

I'm glad this is a thing that is happening less for myself and more for the composers.

Those are the most incredible album covers. They just get better and better.

I do wonder why Warnaar (from Anamanaguchi) is present since he hasn't said anything. It's a little awkward.

Episode 3 could've stood to have lost all the footage with Mr. I Won't Take My Glasses Off Indoors Or Emote Too Strongly Because That's NOT COOL. And also mentioned how exceptional Sakimoto was in the usage of FM synthesis with his Terpsichorean driver. Otherwise, a good episode. I wonder if anyone knows what the tune at the 7:35 mark is. Seems like something Tamayo Kawamoto could've written.

Btw, since it's not labeled and people might be curious, the chipper tune that plays during the bit with Sakimoto in the sushi restaurant is from the obscure Hourai High School SuFami soundtrack.

That's prob why they didn't interview him.

It's hard to know what interviews have or haven't happened because of availability or willingness.

I do agree that this last episode was stupidly limited in its representation, though.

Also Masashi Hamauzu was not credited for the piano piece played during the Final Symphony bit. NOT BY UEMATSU

Yamane hasn't composed for any 16-bit JRPGs. She's getting interviewed anyway. Must be the next/last episode.
