(And for the record, my favorite “cinnamon roll” character in fiction is probably Haru from Persona 5. I actually dated her in one of my P5 playthroughs because I couldn’t bear to reject her and break her heart.)
While I was talking about Jet Set Radio, I mentioned the extra tracks added to the game for the international version. Here are some links to a couple of them:
Scapegoat Wax: Aisle 10 (Hello Allison) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BP7knlQjaw 
Guitar Vader: Super Brothers - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yz9FOI1YFc

All your favorite VGM podcasters are doing a series called “Masters of VGM”, where we do episodes devoted to our four favorite video game composers. For my first entry into this series, I’m going through the greatest hits (and a few other songs) of my favorite VGM composer, Nobuo Uematsu.
