"BGM #18" from Cardcaptor Sakura: Tomoeda Shougakkou Daiundoukai on the Game Boy Color (2000)
Composer/Sound Team: Kiyohiro Sada
Album: No Official Release
Publisher: MTO
Developer: MTO(?)
No, I've never played Cardcaptor Sakura: Tomoeda Shougakkou Daiundoukai or any game in the Cardcaptor Sakura series, but something drew me to the penultimate track from this game. I watched/sped-through a walkthrough of this game and didn't hear this tune anywhere, but the video did seem to skip the credits if there were credits and that was one of two thoughts as to where this track would go. Considering the rest of the game is about challenging your classmates to various athletic activities during a sanctioned sports day at school, this track feels either a little out of place or perfectly in place as a victory march full of pomp and circumstance.
This could just be me, but I hear a lot of similarities between this and some of the music in Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy II, specifically "Ending Theme - FFI" and "Finale - FFII." So, you know, music that closes out a video game. I wasn't able to find a lot of information about this game, let alone the specific composer, but I did find that Kiyohiro Sada worked on the sound team in the role of "Sound Driver." Maybe he just worked on some aspect of the music in the game without being the actual composer, but we're going to list him as at least working on the Sound Team until I can find something more conclusive.
