Fire Emblem Three Houses - God Shattering Star - With Lyrics by Man on the Internet ft. Alex Beckham 

Nemesis: the ultimate sword bard

“You green haired bitch, I was singing!”

Wait, what other song has vocals in the Thunder Version, but not in the Rain Version?

All songs have 2 versions that play in game, one normally, and one for combat. The vocals go quiet whenever you enter any combat.

@@megame5573 Is that comment adressed to me?

In fairness killing God is bragging rights.

@@rustkarl True, but it wasn't even really his win. He was the weapon, not the killer.

@@isaachepworth7860 The Agarthans tricked him into thinking he had been the killer though. This song does accurately portray Nemesis' perspective.

@@adamrhodes9533 Fair point.

It's all about marketing.

Or, in my case, Claude range. 🏹⚔️

:) Hilda Range…

Who would win: *"NO FORGIVENESS!!"* or "YOU'RE IN MY WAY!!"

@@AkameGaKillfan777 how about "You're irrelevant"?

@@Ian-wn5lc I think that one is only pre-timeskip

*Fighting a mutated step sister:* "Same song used in the dragon god fight."

some games call ganondorf the bandit king. nintendo is used to giving crooks biblical cosmic power. magalor was basically a grifter who gaslit kirby into giving him the power of a god, after all

⁠@@gren8te319 Marx 2.0, the most “want to see me do it again?” of Kirby villains

While using said god's spine as a sword, and you can't even deal damage to the guy until you kill his 10 zombified commanders who literally created or helped create everything about this world

Némésis : I killed God Kirby : amateur

you: But how exactly did you manage that? Nemesis: look, that's besides the point... but have you see this spine sword?

@@Dark_Peace Kirby is a god though :P

In any other JRPG, doing that would get protagonist stamped on his head.

"None can defeat me! for I wield the Sword of the Creator!" he says while his opponent also wields the Sword of the Creator, but theirs is the original while Nemisis only wields a replica. Nemisis is then beaten by the so called "cowards" who refused to face him in single combat, dying as he falls over. really ironic isn't It?

@@aiden6559 A replica with 1 more Mt and 10 more uses. The game cheated us >:(

@@AkameGaKillfan777 TWSITD realized maybe bone isn’t the best material to make a sword out of

@@AshenDust_ Well the material used to repair it is called Umbral Steel which implies that either dragon bone is hard enough to be called metal, or they were made by fusing it with another metal. Since Umbral Steel drops from Demonic Beasts (including the wild ones) it implies that it comes from them.

"You merely adopted the power of the Creator. I was born to it"

I haven’t played this game before, so I don’t know the context of these lines, but “All will bow before the king of liberation. And all will cower who cannot accept salvation. None can stand before the sword of the creator. And those who struggle will be nothing more than stains. On the blade.” definitely feels like lines from a religious maniac rather than the killer of god. It’s amazing that without even knowing the series, you can tell that this is a man who has fallen to hubris from his great achievement just from the song.

@@memerarts4914 you’re not super fall off either but it’s less of a fall of a religious maniac and more of an arrogant . Nemesis (the god slayer in this context) in universe is treated as this hero and servant of the goddess alongside the ten elites, to fight against wicked gods, but fell to corruption by the power given to him and was killed by Seiros according to the church. SPOILERS In truth, however he was nothing more then a bandit leader who was tempted by ‘Those who slither in the dark’, an ancient enemy of Fodlan, to steal Sothis’ bones and heart as weapons of destructions against Seiros and the people of fodlan. What’s left of him in this song is a walking corpse revived by Agartha/TWSITD

The bone refers to the 4 weapons made of Sothis' (Pretty much the deity of Fodlan) bones. The sword of the creator is the most well known, which is the one that can extend into a whip as shown. That bow also happens to be one.

@@WhatIsThatThingDoing not just 4, but all but one of the bone weapons from the many noble houses are from Sothis’ remains. The bow and the Sword of the creator are just one of them.

@@Castersvarog I thought they were made from the Nabataean's bones, while the SotC was the only one from Sothis (because of the Crests) Especially considering that there are many Crest Stones (the things that let them work, even at a lower power without the crest they are associated with) because those are literally the Nabataean's *hearts*.

I love how you refuse to call Seirose by name and just kept referring to her Jesus. Lol

Prtty much perfectly accurate, but if anyone is Jesus I would consider it Byleth. Serios and her siblings are more like Michael, Gabriel, etc. lesser divine beings made by god as opposed to the physical manifestation of god that Byleth became after more or less cutting their way back from being banished to hell/the void

@@arridueldes5638 Byleth just god again.

@@gabrielrussell5531 Exactly, if we are going with the matching them up to Christianity Byleth and Sothis together can be seen as representing the Holy Trinity Sothis in life was The Father, Mother in this case I suppose, the active force of Creation Sothis as a higher being without physical form would be the Holy Spirit- the divine that while lacking form still has power and is credited with the revival of Jesus...much like Sothis' power through the divine pulse can resurrect fallen allies and this version of her enables Byleth to return from his magical banishmeent Byleth is The Son(or Daughter depending on character customization), aka Jesus, the physical part of god that lived among humans as one of them before the revelation of his divine nature who would eventually redeem humanity, in Byleth's case by ending the old order and creating a new age for Fodlan alongside whichever house leader you choose to side with. That ended up a little long so sorry about that, but short version: You are correct and because you are correct I am as well, religion can be weird like that.

As a Christian, I have several questions-

And then we've got Kirby which is... *Kill all.* (Also ik It's not a JRPG or even an RPG at all, but I love Kirby so shut up)

Or eat all

@@AmericanBrit9834 *Consume*

*in their sleep

Devourer all

Yeah… those Hero’s Relics are rather creepy.

@@rustkarl I mean, they ARE made of bones,after all.

@@alicebrey The worst part is some, like the Lance of Ruin, wiggle as if they’re still alive.

@@rustkarl Well, in the lore, the bones that the Lance of Ruin and other Heroes' relics are made of don't decay. It explains why they've been used so many times before and haven't completely broken. The bones are (technically) alive.

@@alicebrey Hard to say. The material used to repair them is Umbral Steel which can be gathered from wild Demonic Beasts. Assuming that most Demonic Beasts aren’t of the same quality as the Nabateans it’s possible that the material used to make them is a composite material of Umbral Steel and their bones. There’s also the fact that it’s notoriously hard to keep a Nabatean dead. Sothis was ‘dead’ but still sticks around in her Crest Stone, even after pulling that Fusion Dance with Byleth. So I think that the remains of life and sentience within the Crest Stones embedded into the Relics are the shreds of sentience still lingering from their owners, not really sentient or aware but ever so slightly alive enough to react.

Well, statistically speaking, anyone playing 3 Houses for the first time has a 50% chance of hearing Apex of the World as the final boss theme, over GSS' 25%. This isn't even factoring the amount of people who simp for Edelgard

Every match would have to wait 25 seconds to allow the full intro to complete!

Thats the problem with Smash when they bring in new characters they waste opportunities to use their banger boss music from their games!!

Not even a Three Hopes remix 😭

Even better question WHY THIS SONG WASN'T ON THREE HOPES??!??!

His dad must be proud

For all Agarthans… let there be light!

I love how the Agarthan lyrics are so fanatical. This is simultaneously both the culmination of everything they've done, and their last stand.

Words cannot describe how much I love that part.

Makes one wish that Hopes would have had an Agarthan Route.

@@shizachan8421 I had an idea that it would be like the lore route, and a good chunk of the missions are flashbacks to the Agarthan War.

The Agarthans weren't totally evil. They believed they were right

@@CojaGamez Believing you're in the right doesn't make you any less evil, my guy.

@@ninetails8471 I mean weren't they just defending what they believed was their native land from basically an Alien invader calling itself a god

I mean the original canon lyrics state it he does believe he is right but he also has some belief in the liberation he seeks. A good way to paint it is like the asteru belief in crusader kings. With Violence and vengance being seen as something of merit rather than sins.

In short, Nemesis did nothing wrong and sought to free us from the yolk of dragon aliens.

Then comes your disappointment at how no other route actually gets this far

@@wolfherojohnson2766 actually Crimson Flower this sort of happens of screen

@@solgeo1296 Off Screen. That's the problem. It's cool _telling me_ that I defeated the evil mole people cult and god killing bard, but I want to actually... do it.

@@randombrit4504 which is fair its kind of funny only Azure Moon really doesn't get rid of them

@@solgeo1296 no it happens in azure moon, it just sucks how the entirety of the TWSITD are boiled down to 5 units on the corner of the final chapter. Yes, the bottom right corner of the map, with those 5 units, it’s specifically stated, that for some reason, THATS ALL OF THE REMAINING ONES. So yeah, Fear the Deer.

I know!! Is there any voice this guy can’t do?! I’m amazed each time!

FEAR THE DEER FEAR THE DEER FEAR THE DEER FEAR THE DEER FEAR THE DEER

Fear the Deer!

@@jhmltn4488 For real! This guy is like the Mel Blanc of musical genius!

He had nothing to do in his coffin other than sleeping or bench pressing the lid.

The fuck are those

The Gonerils are nightmares, lovable but an absolute terror to face.

Ugh. You're making me *work*!

UhG YouR MaKinG Me WoRK!

Or the Moon of Ordelia

"I don't have time for this!" The last words someone should hear after our sweets loving nuke destroys her enemy with a black hole or needles that makes the Death Knight afraid.

They are definitely really into "So ends the hope of Seiros" and "Butcher of god!" So what you will about TWSITD, but their Sunday sermons must be lit.

I love their short solo. Sothis fell to our design, and Nabatea’s doom is nigh! So let the dark swallow the sky, the people of Shambhala rise!

Yeah, since Dimitri's half of Apex was used for last year's Songtober.

Wait, byleth is a final boss for three houses?

@@thesoureevee6412 No, her daughter is.

@@thesoureevee6412 Well, the final bosses varies depending on what route you take.

@@70thalternativeaccount63 You're mistaking Byleth for Sothis.

But twilight of the gods never got a lyrical cover.

This isn't Truth, Despair, and Hope though?

I still prefer Apex and FoF over GSS, but all 3 are bangers.

Twilight of the gods says hello

So, everyone is just going to ignore Power-Hungry Fool? *Limitless Power, got them mixed up for a second.

@@johnw.alexander3037 Those two don't even come close to the batshit insanity that God-Shattering Star or Twilight of the Gods are.

@@xyannail4678 I like all the 4 route final boss themes. But ID Purpose is still my favorite

There's going to be more versions?

Juno semi-confirmed God-Shattering Star for his Song of Heroes: Wave 2, in a video where all the characters and voices were revealed. Nemesis was in that video.

I kind of like the parallelism: Claude can either become the anti-Nemesis in his more idealistic route, or he can become the new Nemesis (albeit for far more sympathetic reasons) in his more cynical route. It's now entirely legitimate to say Claude or Nemesis is singing God-Shattering Star, depending on the timeline.

@@jord839 Claude in three houses showed that he felt it would be better if rhea was dead ( support points raised if you said it would be better off if rhea was dead and his beliefs opposed the church’s tenants he was never an ally for dimitri. Or church he in vw used the church for good publicity and he canonically agreed with edelgard but just felt her actions wouldn’t work he never sided with rhea he sided with byleth because he saw them as possibly mitigating the worst aspects of the church and a feasible replacement to rhea between a rhea without byleth and edelgard he would side with edelgard whose ideals correspond with his own

@@adonaimelles2317 I've honestly alwasy agreed with Claude more than anyone else (Dmitri's story is a lot more emotional, that's why I like it more, but when it comes down to it, Claude has the best plan, sadly Edelgard is trying to use Those Who Slither to kill the church but is in turn being used just like they did to Nemesis when they are the one's to blame for her current predicament not Rhea)

Counter point; Dancer Marianne

@@Labyethan that's not a counterpoint, just admitting to also making the same mistake

@eric_moore-6126 same mistake? She actually excels at a Dancer. Like, incredibly - she's a decent healer sure, but Mercedes outperforms her easily. Same case with Linhardt. Magic, despite her unusually high crit chance - people like Lysthia exist. Keeping heals and a good bit of magic, she gains the ability for further support - plus with Dancers, you get the added bonus of the default 20+ avoid with sword, which is handy due to her Hero Relic. There's a whole breakdown explaining it better than I could on the cursed site called Reddit, and honestly, yeah it checks.

you mean Claude right? they haven't done a FFVII crossover (i think)

@charlesfisher-kh5sw lol thank you! Stupid auto correct got to my phone and i never realized this!!

@@B.I.G.TEA707 should they do a FFVII crossover?

It'd be kind of weird though, since the true lyrics for God-Shattering Star is a war rally and propaganda, telling people to take the world back from God.

@@xreamed What do you mean "true lyrics"?

@@gazelle_diamond9768 the actual "translation" of the original song, not to be confused with the lyrics in this video

@@xreamed What translation are you talking about? Has there been an official translation?

@@gazelle_diamond9768 God-Shattering Star uses a false language. There's an official Japanese translation in the soundtrack booklet, which can be translated to English. If you search for "God-Shattering Star official lyrics," it should be easy to find.

I am honestly happy we get any at all considering how relatively niche fire emblem is

Check out Juno Songs, who often collaborates with this channel, and has covered songs for other fire emblem games! Songs of heros wave one is complete, and wave two is planned

@@theskyisfullofclouds4806 Awesome!

Sothis fell to our design, and Nabatea’s doom is nigh. So let the dark swallow the skies, the people of Shambhala riiiiise! That’s my favourite.

Please put some quotation marks

That makes two of us.

Three as well

Four

5

Definitely would love this!

They have one in the spooktober group with dimitri and eldagard that would be a banger if fine tuned

I would LOVE to have a Three Houses musical from these guys which INCLUDES the Cindered Shadows DLC because I can JUST imagine the lyrics to "At What Cost?" when Byleth, Dimitri, Claude, Edelgard and the Ashen Wolves face against the Umbral Beast.

Agreed. This is why I just can't make myself side with Edelgard. It's honestly difficult to side with any one side because they're all so flawed, but that's also one of the most realistic things about this game. No matter what you do, your path is imperfect and there is no Golden Ending where everyone is happy.

A rubix raptor fan i see.

More of a revenant. A lich is usually a powerful mage, and Nemesis is never seen using magic. Revenants, at least in D&D are creatures kept alive due to determination for revenge, which fits Nemesis far better. Just my opinion!

"defenseless goddess", she is as a god dude

​@@ozgurruh2535who was sleeping! Killing someone in their sleep is no challenge at all. So it's NOTHING to be proud of.

​@@DamontheDemon7you do realize that bitch can create the power of nuclear bombs on her finger tips right? Nobody would be a challenge to her. İ would call what he did cunning, also, her temple was likely defended to hell and back, do you think they would leave the literal goddess alone? He likely had to fight a goddamn army before reaching her

@@ozgurruh2535 He already had one? Hello? It’s not a feat to “kill” someone in “permanent sleep” (aka dead).

​@@wildfire9280bruh, youtube did not send a notification for your reply and i am just noticing it while scrolling lmao. I would like to say something back but i am really not in the mood to argue about this after a month has passed

I agree

The Immaculate One? Nah, Claude is the true Immaculate One

SO REAL

@PhillipOnTakos Wait, he didn't appeared in it ? That's kind of a shame, they could have expanded on him and the Argatheans a bit more

@@infinitelegionis515 yeah they choose to expand more on the three main nations. While making other agartans more of the main villain. It's still a good game just crazy how they cut one of the final bosses.

​@@PhillipOnTakos Well, at least they didn't completely cut them out of the game. But I agree with you

His sword appears in New Gane+, though.

well she was a god while he was just human so there is that

​@@FireWolf42yeah, not everyone is like Kratos or Joker (P5)

He says that after he makes you waddle through the mud hiding behind his 10 elites

@@FireWolf42 A sleeping god that even the most inexperienced child could kill. Because she’s… asleep.

Alternative sentence: big words for someone in lysithea distance

In all fairness, the other routes do have something else overtaking their main role, and thus, not everyone may be able to have time to build up Nemesis. Crimson Flower has the whole Edelgard vs Rhea Blue Lions pretty much has the whole relationship status between Dmitri and Edelgard and how they view each other in the age of war El set up. I'd possibly argue there might have been a possible chance for the Church route to include Nemesis, but after that gauntlet of a final boss fight? Probably would've been a bit too much for one route, even after the Church Route goes through Shambala, then possibly fighting Nemesis before the final boss of that route. And given part of the Golden Deer's early game was somewhat going through Fodlan's history, Nemesis likely made for a much fitting final boss, not just for Golden Deer, but perhaps for Rhea as well. Though those are my two cents and I can't recall every little detail since it's been ages since I played this game, so I might be off on the overall theming for the routes here.

@@TheGreatPikminZX789 I can sort of see that for the deer but it feels very feeble and it does just raise more questions due to the messy relationship between Silver Snow and Verdant Wind (and the sheer amount of "this is totally the final mission we swear this time" fatigue). I suspect if Verdant Wind had more time and energy devoted during development it would feel a lot less jarring.

He literally killed god, not a single god of a pantheon, no like he killed the god. Think of it like killing Jesus but more

Well now it have one.

Lol Nemesis is nothing compared to Luigi!

Now, we have *two* Three Houses songs since this guy also did Apex.

"YOU ARE MAKING ME WORK!" "HOLD A GRUDGE IF YOU MUST!" "YOU WILL REGRET THIS!"

​"MY BLOOD COMPELS ME!" "IN A HURRY TO DIE, ARE WE?"

Yes, Nemesis will learn to FEAR THE DEER!

And stamp out the remnants of the Siltherers personally, not relegate it to an epilogue monologue. *ahem Crimson Flower*

👍 N O I C E

Oh look here, I found Alois

He and the legendary berserker would be bffs
