Nice to meet you 2DX users, I'm Asaki.
Those who like gothic songs will probably enjoy this.
Please play it sometimes.

Asaki

This is an EXTRA STAGE song. Since this is a so-called "boss song", it's about time to make a super boss-like song! So I made a song like this.
Surprisingly, I didn't have gothic taste songs, so it looks like I made it plain and easy to understand, but when you listen carefully, it's not plain at all. I secretly tried to add some strange tastes to it.
Thanks to doing this, it has a slightly strange atmosphere (heavy breathing) =3.
Please immerse yourself in it while spinning and weaving round and round.

Asaki

I stubbornly played phrases on the guitar that gothic and symphonic people generally play using a keyboard...
My fingers are hurting.
As expected of an EXTRA STAGE song. Or rather, to Satan?.. Or rather, the last boss?
Well, I'll need to make Four Heavenly Kings-styled songs someday! Oh, wow...

This song was crossed over to 2DX, so I helped out just a bit.
It has a different movie size, so I remade it to fit in 2DX.
I didn't have the Gitadora movie with me, so there may be some slightly different scenes, but....

Everyone, please also play it elegantly in 2DX.

This song has a gothic taste, so I tried to create an elegant and simple illustration.

I always paid attention to the line flows, and I intended to show them as much as possible.
I used the three Gothic colors "red", "black", and "white" to paint the tones.

Please play it elegantly.
