i really like the way that every pokemon mystery dungeon game begins with this song, but each one with a different leitmotif in the background that embodies the game it starts
the gates to infinity "theme of hope" in this one hits different than a lot of the others for me, because the motif of the theme itself is kind of...melancholic?
it kind of plays with sounding more contemplative and wistful? which really does fit with the themes that make gates unique when comparing it to the other games
if you haven't played gates to infinity, it's thesis is basically about the entire concept of hope
which means, that it has to veer pretty far into the idea of hopelessness too. and even a lot of its leitmotif reflects that!
and as someone who struggles with anxiety, the fact that the concept was actually a tangible part of the story honestly kind of destroyed me
anyway uhhh...
good game imo
