Ok. I’ve spent a large amount of the day looking into both Robbie’s sources, and Speedwagon and Dio’s sources. I found the playlists for their sources weren’t really as expansive as I would have liked, so I tried making my own.

Here’s mine for Robbie (which is still kinda small).

And here’s mine for Speedwagon and DIO.

Coming to a decision with this fight really hurt me, since they’re my 2 favourites. Even when I vote I feel like I’m gonna regret not voting for the other. This single match is harder for me than anything in KFAD was. Most times I found a good song, the other had a good song as well to counter it:
 * End of The World Vs. We Are Number One
 * Who Killed U.N Owen Vs. Hope
 * Divine Bloodlines Vs. We Love Burning Town
 * Killer Vs. Dave Jones

I won’t lie, apart of the reason I want Robbie to make it far is to be a tribute to Stefan Karl. We Are Number One is the main meme I give credit to for getting me into memes, and maybe I wouldn’t even be here without it. This made the loss of Stefan really hurt, and even if Robbie was just a character, I can’t help but feel a sense of both nostalgia and sadness when I hear We Are Number One. Robbie also has more really good stuff. From One Piece to a little bit of Shantae, to Sea Shanties.

But in the end. After listening to tons of the music from both sides, Speedwagon and DIO’s music spoke to me more. JoJo just has so much variety in its tracks that the songs from Lazy Town don’t really deliver. And while Robbie’s pirate stuff may have more stuff than vampires, one simple franchise blew the pirate stuff away. Castlevania! Its music can go from rock, to piano, to choir, to much more. And it ended up being the deciding factor in my decision.

I will be voting for Speedwagon and DIO. But regardless who wins, I hope the loser pulls a Mariya/MissingNo and recovers to the final 4. Maybe the final match will be a rematch between the two?
