Edgeworth vs Arino is super tough, they're both super close in my eyes. I think I like Edgeworth's more musically but Arino's probably works better as entrance music and the Kacho on! pushes it over the edge, that phrase immediately gets me hype for this charming humble man, point to Arino.

Barret vs Toad is an easy win for Barret though. Toad also has a great soundclip, possibly one of his best since it tells you pretty much everything you need top know about VGCW Toad, but to me that's where his entrance peaks. Even back in Melee I was never super fond of Rainbow Cruise's music and I don't think it's all that much better as an entrance, its fine but I'd definitely agree there's plenty of better options for Toad out there.

Torn on the first one... I do like both themes a lot. But Edgey-poo's theme is very much his own, whilst I don't get why Arino has Ode to Joy. This may be a reference to an episode of GCCX I haven't seen (i.e. most of them), but I'm going to give my point to Edgeworth.

The other matchup? No-brainer. AVALANCHE reppin' 'til the day I pass on! My vote goes to Barret.

Remember last year when we were excited for this?
First match is difficult, but as it is best song, and not best entrance, I've got to give my vote to The Chief. It may trail off a bit, but it starts a lot stronger, and that means a lot.

Second match, Barret no contest.

I've never actually seen the show myself but I was under the impression Ode to Joy was the (or one of the?) opening theme to Gamecentre CX

Arino's theme just puts me in an excellent mood from the first note and is a nice high-energy song. It's a great attention-grabber that never fails to create hype and put the crowd in a good mood no matter what disappointments might have happened earlier in an episode. "Kacho on!" is the father of all soundbytes and is still fantastic. Edgeworth's theme is also distinct from the start, and though it lacks a soundbyte it gets the crowd energized. It also has the advantage of some great dramatic notes atop the ramp and when Edgey reaches the ring. Edgey's theme has some sync too, the biggest being the "sync steps", but to be frank those have never really been consistent. Often it'll be the first foot that hits sync 1, then dragging up the second leg on a different step for sync 2, etc. That's not really about the song itself, but I just wanted to add my two cents on that. Anyway, they're both pretty good themes, but Arino's just gets me more invested and that "Kacho on!" is a joy to hear. Arino gets my vote.

I've said before why I like Toad's theme, and Barret's is a great song that really helped sell him in VGCW over, say, Cloud back in the day. The rap's really good, is from Barret's perspective, and sums up what he's all about. It's very engaging and gives Barret a voice. Also, it's just really fun to sing along to, from the eight "hey" opening to the "AV-AL-AN-CHE yeah that's who we be!" Toad might be THE BEST, but his theme, though good, is not. Barret gets my vote.

Yeah, this was a very close one, but Chief Arino just barely squeaks out. Meanwhile, Barret Wallace gets one more vote.
