Just replying to a couple of things rn:

In general - some of the rests, I hid so that they wouldn't bother me when I was arranging, but I forgot to show them again.

m.11- Yeah, the chord should have been higher, and I don't really like its sound when it's in the bass, but I put it there to make it easier. I'll mess with that. The slur actually refers to the phrasing of the flute line underneath, not the koto. Tried to imply the koto line was detached by ending the phrasing the note before
m.13-14 I actually use my RH 4-5 for the tremolo, which left my thumb free for that. Since the pedal is being used there, it's also possible to sound the F and E without holding it. The bass notation, I don't quite remember either, though.
m.16 I play the bottom 5 notes with 1-5-1-2-3 with my LH, so I left it like this so other performers could use their own fingerings.
m.20  - have no clue how that second flat got there, will fix
m.21 - honestly, I think it'd be clearer just to use three staves for this section. I don't like the clashing, but having the slur underneath makes it more clear which line it's referring to.

Noticed some alignment is a bit off, will fix that too.

Also, I kept it at 80% resizing since I hate how large everything is when printed out at 100% size, but I can do some tinkering to spread it out a bit more. I rationalized keeping a ton of voices in since even though having 5 voices at the same time isn't quite idiomatic for piano, I shun tradition anyway, and it's still possible to keep the voices clear if you're precise enough with your hands.

That being said, I do realize that most people who play this will probably muddle the voices :P

What kind of potential are we talking about? Gravitational potential? Electric potential?

- "Insig, why don't you stop spreading chords over 2 octaves?"
- "Insig, why don't you stop using extremely dense chord voicing?"

no.

inevitably... there is an end.
in the time before,
                            there has been a search for Meaning
     and it
               is feared, for the universal Meaning
, accepted by all,
                         is unknown;
                                  as such, Man has
searched for a Meaning

 but–
                                  where is it?

What do you daydream about?

Bumping this topic

couple of comments, i haven't done a thorough run-through but it sounds like m.9 should have the Am chord while m.11 has the C chord, and it's pretty hard to get the intensity at the climax from just single notes played loudly like that, so you might consider integrating some tricks to make the sound richer there like doubling or adding some pedal

absolute banger

preliminary look-through looks good, love the articulations and shizz, just wondering about m.25 where it's sounds like the vibes be doin' something up there, i guess you left it out cuz it was pretty quiet?

m.59 you did the beam break for the first group but didn't do it for the third group :(
#69
Doin' a bit of note-checking here

m.2 sounds like the last E in the bass should be F
Sounds like you're missing some voices, like in m.5-6 I hear a C D E F G in the bass. D'you want any help with that or do you wanna try and work it out yourself first?
#70
I'm cool with this
#71
I'm hearing the grace note in m.17 as an Eb (with maybe an F in between)?

m.23 I'd add some indication that the bass is coming out and being the big boy now, same in m.29

m.26 would add accent markings on the appropriate beats since the chords are not stressed all the same way

I feel that your m.69 could be more climactic, fill in the chords for the measures beforehand and you could add some more of the bass for more of that oomph

also goddamn this is a banger
#72
There's some collisions with accidentals and articulations in m.5-6 that you can just tweak a bit.

I'm hearing the opening as G#-A-E#-F#-C#-B#, and that chord as something like E-G#-B#-C#

For m.5, you can slur the B# to the C#

Places like m.7, m.9, you could fill out the left hand with the chords that play on beats 2 and 4
#73
So you know how in m.12-13 and other related measures, you can hear the A in the treble play throughout most of the measure, right? Your sheet needs to reflect that. As well... you should write that Db as a C#.

I'm not hearing the Eb in m.22.

Not sure what's up with the ending, here.

Looks like all the Ab's you have here should be spelled as G#'s instead.

Only comment I have is on the name, since the naming seems to be inconsistent. Latios' link is down, but I found this instead
