>It's hilarious how you're trying to attach Mitsuda's name to Kato too.
I'm not trying anything. They've worked together on all the three chrono games (RD is canon to the CT universe) and CT has been praised for its plot and music as much as its gameplay.

I didn't want to say that the original "dream team" was useless. Horii also came up with the time travel plot after all, among what you said. There are also a lot of names we don't mention a lot that were essential like Takashi Tokita (Live-A-Live is awesome)
I just meant that, there is a particular "mood" that feels "Chrono" and that this anon describe perfectly >>6455232
And that feel is the combinaison of Mitsuda's music + Kato writing. (The sealed door theme + the last dialogue of the Nu when you're gonna grab the Epoch is this)

Chrono Cross is very flawed, but it has this "chrono feel", even without Toriyama. This is why you have people who love both games. They're linked by this "feeling" even if the surface elements and gameplay are very different
