- Marshmallow
This file is boring. It's good in terms of steps, but it's boring.
- ZAMURAI
Kinda risky file, 1/12th on 200bpm? Good job on this.
- This Is My Life
Wow, awesome. One of best files in DDR brackets of this competition!

- Marshmallow
Song is awful, but steps are really fun.
- ZAMURAI
All the bpm changes seem correct, but they still left me confused, even after playing it a few times. It's hard to get into the steps and find them fun when I'm being thrown off by the song.
- This Is My Life]
Sounds like an old school DDR song, with appropriately-breaked steps to match.

Marshmallow
THIS IS MY LIFE

Not files that shine the brightest in this competition, but they both do what they're trying to do very well. ZAMURAI is a risky one, but that doesn't automatically make it good because of its creativity. So, for me, the file didn't deliver in the end.

#1 - Marshmallow - (Just plain awesome, although I don't understand why there are so many useless BPM's in the file (changing from 140 to 140 to 140 to 140 to 70 to 70 to 70 [over and over again], the speed-up is so well done though, and the steps, and video, and everything are fantastic).

#2 - This Is My Life - (It's good, steps go well, video is okay, song isn't that great, but it's overall better than...)

FAIL: Zamurai - (Wow you had so much to work with, J-hip hop/breakcore, great video, but the BPM changes suck and there could have been better flow in the steps (I know it's breakcore and therefore fairly random, but I think it could have been better still)!! and the video is not synched to the song... but at least I've now heard a freaking great artist Hifana, just need to get rid of these stupid Sync gimmicks).

V - This is my life. simply good.
V - Marshmallow. Really great patterns, but I can't see myself playing this much more because of the song. Also maybe that speed up, although, didn't fit that much with a song like this? It was well done, I'll give you that.

X - Zamurai - I actually like it, but Oni felt kind of unnecessary and a bit overdone, and the patterns didn't stand out enough as Marshmallow.
Why do you need SEGA Original Hedgehogs...?

Urgh. I feel awfull. I forgot to vote up on "THIS IS MY LIFE". So to make it up, imma play it to see if ti deserves it.

1st: Marshmallow
(Overall presentation and stepcharts are solid good.)
2nd: THIS IS MY LIFE
(Okay. I know I did give Zamurai a bit lower than Marshmallow. But if I ever vote on THIS IS MY LIFE, the chart is decent, that I think it deserves to be on the 2nd. Oh and the BGvideo made me WTH.)

So here's my votes.

Marshmallow
This Is My Life


This was a somewhat difficult decision. While This Is My Life definitely has its share of areas that could be slightly better-polished, what it all comes down to, it's a pretty darn fun simfile. Zamurai is nice for being something fairly different, but the ineffective song structure and somewhat unpolished steps make it a less satisfying package overall.
