Gotta love Finale's ultra ritardando interpretation.

Nice arrangement! Makes me happy to see more SotC arrangements!

A couple of things:

M.8: Maybe write down the glissando octaves with notes instead, like 32ths, or use a grace note. It doesn't really feel like a glissando, but maybe that's just me.

M.10: The "mp", move it in a bit so it doesn't collide with any lines, it looks better that way. 

M.23-24: I think you're missing some notes. before the 2 last RH chords, I think there are short grace notes just before the chords, like lower chords.

Tanks

Maybe a grace note would work. Personally, it sounds to me like the octaves in "Gwyn, Lord of Cinder," which I would also write arpeggios for if they were more consistent through the piece. I'll admit, a two-note arpeggio is kinda strange, but it sounds like the lower note hits on the beat, and the higher one hits after, as if rolled up. But I don't know if it's supposed to be as rigid as a 32nd + other stuff. It was hard deciding what should be a grace note in this piece, especially given the general style concerning grace notes in the soundtrack in general.

Fixed spacing.

I'm not getting any grace notes. There's some wavy stuff going on and the piano echoes slightly. There's also a low voice that kinda fades into the same notes as the LH, but I don't know what you mean by grace notes.

Some small suggestions:
- It seems like you're using accent marks a little bit much, particularly in measure 3 where they're on all the RH notes. Perhaps just a dynamic change in measure 4 or something? Also I don't think they're really needed in 12-13.
- I think measure 19-20 LH would look nicer in bass clef.
- The cresc/dim in measures 9, 11, and 22 touch the right barline while the others don't. Mright look nicer if you nudge the right endpoint left a little. Also the f in measure 6 is a bit high.

That thingy in measure 8 looks fine to me. So do the last couple of measures.

Really nice sheet ^^

Removed a bunch of accents. (It's such a hard-sounding piano)
Changed clef change location to 19
Changed spacing of stuffs.

Cool. Just right-align the composer/arranger, fix the collision in m. 20 (selecting the whole note using simple entry tool should re-space things, then just move the articulation), and maybe raise the tempo marking a bit and we're good!

Select text boxes and then Ctrl+Shift+]. Silly, I know, but just for the sake of OCD...

I mean, I did it, but it literally didn't change anything. This is what it looked like to me on both the PDF and MUSX before making the change:
