Actual title should be "Ending Theme"

[Libera]

Well this sheet is badly in need of a replacement so thanks for this.

Just a few things on a first look:
-I think it'd be better to make more use of the page, it kinda looks a little cramped horizontally and is empty at the bottom (there are a lot of notes in some of those bars!). 
-Bar 11 doesn't look very playable as written.  I'd change the semibreve to a dotted minim and it'd make it much easier and I'm not sure you'd really lose anything from doing that.

Nice, yes another good replacement

- Measure 6 beat 2.25, is different from the others; that chord has a C in it instead of a G.
- m. 8 should have D's in the first chords. The other chords could be filled in a bit more too if you want.
- The A in m. 12 should move up to a B on beat 3.
- First chord in m. 13 should have a D (moves up to the E you wrote in the next chord)
- Ab-->G# in the last measure (E chord)
- Last bass note in m. 8 should be E instead of F
- If you flipped the beam for beat 1 of the last measure to avoid long stems below the top staff, make sure to move the staccato appropriately below the dyad.

Perhaps, but when you up the system count to 5, you need to have a system with an extra measure & it just looks all wonky. I personally think it's fine the way it is right now.

[Brassman388]

When it comes to margin space, the top margin usually gets 2 in, and the bottom between 1.0 in - 0.5 in.

That should fix any wonkiness you got.

You substituted the wrong note here.

I personally think 2 inches for the top is a bit much, but I do agree the bottom margin could be widened here. (To me, distribution looks alright.)

[LeviR.star]

May I ask why the last measure has a D.C. instead of a repeat sign?

Why not?

Sheet looks solid to me! A few very minor comments:

• I'd suggest adding staccatos to the eighth notes in beats 3-4 of m4 LH, as well as the eighth note on beat 2.5 in m16 in both LH and RH.
• Optimally, in m15, the pianist would keep all the notes held as they played them, but... I don't know of a good way to notate it on piano.
• Meh, I do think it is pretty cramped. Personally I'd use a 4-3-3-3-3 distribution, but if you prefer it the way it is then go ahead.

[Libera]

Ok I've gone through the notes finally.  Sorry for the wait.

-The bottom A in the first minim of bar 12 extends through the whole bar.
-The B in the chord on beat 2 of bar 13 is an A (moves up to the B on the next chord).

• Optimally, in m15, the pianist would keep all the notes held as they played them, but... I don't know of a good way to notate it on piano.

This as well.  Ravel ties are one option.

That's all I have for this.  Good work!

Seems like the best option for that. Fixed.

I apologize if it seems like I'm being stubborn about this issue, but I really don't like how it distributes across 5 systems. I'd prefer to keep it the way it is.

[Latios212]

If you're going to use the Ravel ties, make them all bend downwards so as to avoid the new note being struck.

I was referring to adding staccatos here in m16:

But it's a very minor suggestion. Otherwise, the sheet looks good to me.

Bold of you to assume I can follow instructions correctly. Fixed.
