Guilty Gear Xrd: Revelator - Freesia | Reacting To Video Game Music! 

For those wondering Freesia is a flower species that is symbolic of trust and friendship (the botanist who discovered it actually named it after a friend)

The singer's name is Naoki Hashimoto, who I'm pretty sure is the only (male) vocalist for 99% of the whole series' soundtrack (Someone else sang the backing vocals in Love The Subhuman Self, at least). I think there are around 10 rock ballads like this in the whole series. Most, if not all of them are some sort of credits theme.

«Where are the guitars?» I WISH I could describe the snickering face I pulled there, but alas.

Well now he has to listen to "All I can do" and "Lily"

It's a love song. it's basically saying that you can be the richest man in the world or the king of the universe, but without that special someone by your side, you are nothing. Very deep.

finally, the day has come for the ballads to rear their head onto this channel. daisuke is a huge queen fan and you can really feel it ooze out of songs like these. all i can do and freesia are my favorite gg ballads, and they're also the songs that really made me appreciate how crazy naoki's vocal range truly is. the guy can do seemingly anything he wants with his voice

Guilty gear was basically an excuse for daisuke to create his own rock albums.

THE WHOLE WOOOORLD IS KIIIIIIIND TO MEEEE

THIS IS A SPACE BASE!!!😭😭🔥🔥

This is my favorite song in all of guilty gear The usual thrash stuff is great, but the fact that these amazing ballads are so often overshadowed is an absolute crime Thank you for reacting to and breaking down this song

Daisuke Ishiwatari likes to be...VERY expressive and experimental with his Ending Songs.

Explaining the whole lore of Guilty Gear would be really difficult, but this song talks about the guilt of some characters, feeling that even if they get to save the world, they couldn't save it's significant other (this can apply to a lot of characters, but more specifically Sol Badguy and Asuka R. Kreutz), in the lyrics of the song there are parts about "The whole world is kind to me, but sorry sorry sorry" "wearing a fine suit, paying by a credit card, but i cannot prove myself" "wearing a shiny crown, paying by a blanc check, that still will not convince myself" This song was on the credits of Revelator, but there are a lot of songs like this on Story Mode, which is basically Guilty Gear anime (there are no fights or whatsoever, it's just an anime inside the game for you to enjoy and know what is happening) Freesia doesn't necessarily is someone or something on the series, it's a flower irl, but i think they used it to refer to Aria, Sol's wife that he killed in order to save the world (she was technically brainwashed and wanted to take over the world) and i think this because in the lyrics it says something about "But without her, I'm not here. Only my shell. Remains here. Lonely, my soul. Left somewhere" "Freesia. Here I am. And sorry sorry sorry." "Hands shaken everywhere, But I, but I, want you by my side!" I love your videos and this one i actually made it almost ten minutes after uploaded, good video as always!

Revelator is the "SF3 Double Impact" of Guilty Gear Xrd. Major update with added characters, story, music, etc. But wasn't the final version of Xrd.

Daisuke was probably already thinking about "Radio Asuka" in the moon base when he wrote this (Asuka, aka "That Man", known as the villain, just restored -kinda- his friendship with the main characters in the Strive ending, literally having a moon base where he broadcasts goodwill words to earthlings) . And its lyrics only made some sense two games down the line, since it played more as a calm tune in ggrev story mode (and maybe at one staff roll iirc). Great stuff, at that time it wasn't already uncommon having lyrics in Guilty Gear, but it wasn't the main feature it became now.

This one for some reason is one of my favourites from GG. I think it’s the vocals as it sounds so personal and emotional by the last part, I just get pulled into it. Certainly different from what’s usually expected.

Oh hell yeah finally one of the the calm guilty gear tracks. Honestly while I do love the thrash of normal guilty gear I absolutely ADORE when Daisuke is able to indulge in his love of Queen. While freesia isn't my absolute favorite calmer track (that goes to 'All I can Do') its such a mellow vibe track...and the only place I've ever heard someone soulfully scream out "credit card".

Btw, NAOKI is the singer for almost all of the songs, and some appearences from AISHA

freinds : "promise you won't cry" me : "yes, i won't cry" the chorus waiting for me :

You are now the second person on all of RU-vid that I have found reacting to this song…

Freesia always breaks my heart...

FRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

If you like seeing this other side of GG, I recommend checking out Birthday Train. Also, the Arcade Mode credits song from Strive, The Name of Heaven, is really good.

Ballad's became a little more common with Xrd onward, usually in relation to the story. My favorite is All I Can Do, but they're all a nice break from the rest of the soundtrack.

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS RAAAAAAAAH

oh fuck yeah, so glad this made it to the channel. never underestimate the wild stylistic range of these games and their soundtracks

Should check out Holy Orders (Be Just Or Be Dead), Ky's theme for most of the series

FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I'm late but, the story of guilty gear (has alot to it but,) has the main thematic recurring element of freedom, both as an individual and in a cosmic sense.

Credit card 😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥

FREEEESIAAAA, HEREEEE III AAAAAAMMM

my favorite guilty gear song!!!! thank you ❤

FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

You should definitely listen to more XRD songs, theyre different but really amazing.

Now we need you to listen to Lily, eventually.

Revelator is just a content expansion of Xrd. Before Arc System Works fully embraced the concept of DLC. This song is from the story mode (an in-game 9 hour movie).

This song is pretty great, pure vibes. It sounds like someone is apologizing for wronging someone else. I don't recall exactly what moment this plays unfortunately but I think it was near the end of the story or credits. Not my favorite ballad from the series but it's still very good.

I've liked this song so much I learned how to sing it, such a good sog overall!

YES! I've really hoped you, Jesse, notice and mention that this song sounds like something out of Elton John's discography. For me it sounds like if Elton John has been tasked to write Space Oddity from the scratch and it shouldn't be Rocketman.

asuka theme "the gravity" is great too

Manifesting the Play The Hero video

YESS FREESIA IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES!

Freesia and All I Can Do are probably the most different from all the other pieces.

FREEEEEEEESIAAAAAAAA!!!!

You weren't far off. It's a song from the credits of Story mode :o

If this is the calmest you've heard Daisuke Guitar, check out Lily from the same set of games.

"Nice and metal" Daisuke Ishiwatari about to pull a full 180° and do soft piano music:

Funny thing I happen to be playing rev2 and this showed up

another banger is from xx2, burly heart

Oh Fuck yeah

FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESIA HERE I AMMMMMMM

Like you enjoy it. Nice track.

idk why the lyrics just reminds me of David Bowie's Space Oddity...

best song in GG for me

At last!

Do a three-part long vid consisting of: - Holy Orders (Be Or Be Dead) - Magnolia Eclair - The Roar of the Spark All three are Ky Kiske’s themes, from XX, Xrd, and Strive, respectively. There’s a genetic throughline there that I’m interested in seeing you discover.

Do I need to be high to really enjoy this?

Hi! Please reaction music "Megaman X vs Zero remix"
