Behind-The-Scenes Commentary:
I wasn't sure if I was going to make another guitar quartet cover.
It's a LOT of work, and my first quartet video (Pixel Time) is actually my lowest performing video so far, so not a great motivator either.
However, there was no other way I wanted to tackle this track.
It also serves a "sequel" of some sort to Pixel Time anyway, with all of the characters returning (+ Toki too)

I started working on this cover over 1.5 months ago in order to release it at the same time the event does.
I was cutting it dangerously close.
There were so many issues in creating this cover.

The main issue was the lack of range I have on the guitar.
Pianos have 88 or so keys, meanwhile I'm lucky to have about 36~ frets, and about 12-16 of the frets overlap notes anyways depending on what guitar tuning I use.

So many notes are shared across the 4 guitars that balancing the sound was extremely difficult. My original transcription came out extremely muddy as the low notes just melded together and sounded a mess.

I originally wasn't going to have any special attachments to my guitar, but I was lucky and had all three of the new characters in my Blue Archive keychain collection, so I hung them on my Capo to reasonable effect.
(Unfortunately don't have any Maid Momoi and Maid Midori keychains, so I used a regular one)
Also used two BA patches I bought from artists as a secondary decoration.
Compulsively buying BA merch from small artists has payed off...

Momoi and Midori aren't the main focus of the event, so they get relegated to the minor roles in the quartet
Yuzu got to hide in the last video, so I forced her to have a main part alongside Aris.
Toki is a mixed bag, but still gets to shine.
Every student gets to play the melody at least once.

I'm tired...
I'll see you next time with another Blue Archive cover (and probably not a quartet/trio/duet this time)
