Four Reasons Why "Out of Kindness" Isn't A Great Palace Theme *SPOILERS*

Welcome back everyone!

I cannot thank you all enough for the love and support you gave to my analysis of "Gentle Madman" from Persona 5 Royal. Thanks to all of you, it's the most popular video on my channel! From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. That means the world to me. 

With the success of that video, I've had lots of people ask me to do an analysis on "Out of Kindness", which is the other piece that plays during the secret dungeon in Persona 5's third semester. But, it's lacks a lot of what made "Gentle Madman" so interesting to me, so I wanted to dissect whatever I could with this piece and provide ways it could have been fixed. 

*THIS WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR PERSONA 5 ROYAL. DO NOT SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU!*

If you guys enjoyed the video, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more content! And be sure to follow my Twitch account (Link down below) to catch a stream where I notate "The Ideal and the Real" by ear! 

*If this video gets 50 likes, I'll work on my overall analysis of that piece!*

Not entirely too sure what the next video will be, might be a review, might be a challenge run, but I'm going to need time to prepare for whichever I decide to do overall, so please bare with me!
