I'm gonna go with September. Both files are great, but September had more charm with steps that were slick and fun. Sunny The Ride was a bit formulaic for me, but I do give it credit for its spot-on placement.

I'm gonna go with September. Sunny the Ride was nicely done, but I though September had a slight egde.

September

Overall, the chart felt like it flowed a little better, and I really really liked how well the video was executed, though the Oni was SO not an 8 foot.

While I liked both entries lots, I'll have to go with September. It takes a lot of skill to sync a 70s song, but you got it pretty much perfect.

OH, ALRIGHT THEN, IT'S A NEW ONE.

Sunny the Ride. Because those steps look more DDR than some 70s song.

Damn, I hate it when two good files go up against each other. :|

SUNNY THE RIDE is just my favoritest Love Shine clone ever. :D It's fast, it's energetic, it's got great jumps and use of repeated linked phrases. It's definitely one of my top favorites in BEST-mix.

SEPTEMBER is another of my favorites, because I love the song and the Oni chart is great. Which is not to say the Heavy chart isn't fun either. This is a very hard decision to make, but I'm going to have to go with...

SUNNY THE RIDE

Sunny The Ride was a really good simfile with some fun steps that fit the song. but my vote goes to September because of its really fun steps and memorable readme.

I would've voted for September, because it takes a bit of time to sync a song with an unstable BPM like this (good thing there's DDReam!), and nice background and video editing. My only gripe on this file? The banner. :( It's almost unreadable due to some lack of shadowing on the texts (it could be better if he/she add some more).

So I'll go for Sunny The Ride. I have a thing for songs and steps like Love Shine and Candy (heart). Also, it has decent graphics.

Sunny The Ride gets my vote. It's a solid file, the slow-down feels a bit forced but the steps are overall fitting, songwise I would have chose September but the sync is kinda sloppy (the fact that everyone notices it's an inconsistent BPM song is because they can tell it's off-sync, if it were spot-on nobody would be noticing without opening the .sm file). I also would liked to have seen some more challenging steps in September, it would have been awesome if you could have followed the beats that EBA used.

This was a close one. I love SEPTEMBER as a song, but ever since the remix was in DDR Universe I've grown attached to that file instead. If I saw this one first I would be voting for it. My vote is for Sunny the Ride. I haven't seen a Jpop song that I enjoy in a very long time.

September had more creativity, in presentation and in steps. The steps are sure worth playing around in Diet Mode with.
