@@pacifistichuman82649okay so sweetheart is part of sunny's headspace, a figment of his imagination. the point is that sunny is depressed but imagines banging tunes while fighting against an imaginary enemy
Honestly I barely associate this game with horror anymore. I consider it more storytelling than anything. The gameplay, music and humor make up for all the horror in my mind.
This is psychological horror for _sunny_ because he despises this side of his sister. Being irredeemable makes it easier to beat sweetheart: there is no messy conflict in making the choice.
When you picture your sister as the irrelevant, vexatious recurring flea buzzing about loving herself because you, for roughly three years, have stewed in resenting your sister even after you regret killing her by accident
If you think about it, Sweetheart is an exaggerated personification of Mari’s obsession with perfection, possibly stemmed from Sunny’s hatred of that part of Mari. For Sweetheart it was the perfect suitor, while for Mari, it was the perfect song. Both of them are also smitten with Hero. Sweetheart also acts as a source of conflict in Headspace, because of Sunny’s need for a villain to distract Omori and friends on their adventures. This led to Sunny’s mind creating her from the most hated traits of Mari, combined with the obnoxious Candy Store Lady from Othermart, in order to make the perfect villain for Omori and friends to pursue.
Also, Sweethearts main emotion gimmick in the battle is making herself happy and everyone else angry. What Mari saw as a fun bonding moment of playing music together, omori found to be a challenge that did nothing but make him angry.
@Bill James by design and other features, yes. but I would be hard pressed to find many things in the headspace that isn't represented by more than 1 thing in his real world, especially in any of the major bosses
Yeah, a few of the major bosses hone in specific characters in your party. Smiling with Hero wins over Sweetheart's.. heart, and restores Hero's HP. Similarly, flexing with Kel against Pluto in his strongest form, causes Pluto to feel proud of how for he's come, and Kel's HP restores as well. Humphrey, being a special entity in Headspace (and also the oldest), focuses on mocking Omori during the fight, specifically he jokes about how "stuffy" it's getting. Which alludes to how Headspace is starting fall into ruins and become increasingly uncomfortable. Humphrey and Omori also have some VERY strong parallels, creating their own world inside their minds, inhabited by people who are actually just extensions of their host selves.
it also has another dialogue when you eat a donut snack in her boss, she says something along the line of "you dare eat a donut in front of me?!" or something, i forgot
Incredibly funny how the most viewed Omori themes on RU-vid are Duet and My Time, both very emotional songs from the end of the game, and then . . . this.
I beat Sweetheart first try, and I attribute that victory towards a combination of my entire party being enraged and dumping ridiculous damage on her, and how hyped up I was listening to this.
Whatttt! How did you beat her when your party was enraged? That was a total disadvantage for me, the first few times when I did it my whole party was enraged but that was impossible to win with and I only started being able to win when I made them sad/ happy??? Guess that's the only way lower levels can win :')
@@no-hp3dt I always found Anger to be really useful in boss fights. My main strategy for bosses is to make them happy, then get Omori and Aubrey mad and spam Hack Away and Beatdown with Hero and Kel on support.
@@no-hp3dt Maybe it would've worked better if I'd made them Sad instead, but Happy worked really well against Sweetheart so I just never changed my strategy.
I thought Sweetheart was just going to be a random broad that never going to actually appear, but she ended up being the best Arc Antagonist in the game. Her music is bitchin',too. What a turnaround!
But its called "World's End Valentine" which means that you'll be proclaiming that Valentines day is the end of the world... ... and you would be doing that yearly!
b-b-but... How could you hate the glorious perfect sweetheart? This is imposible, this is treachery, this is... HERSEY!!!! HAROLDS!!! Take this peon to the dungeons where they belong!!
I went in totally Blind. When I heard the first part of the Track, I was expecting something a bit Elegant, but when I heard that Drop, I was like damn, this shit goes HARD!
@@kair.s9078 Rage Aubrey is the go to strat for most bosses. Also you can turn one enrage by having her basic attack and interact with Kel which is a good investment on bosses that can hit more than one member and fill your gauge faster.
Me: if I make her angry, then make the whole party happy, maybe that’ll work- Game: SWEETHEART: OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! AUBREY feels ANGRY! HERO feels ANGRY! OMORI feels ANGRY! KEL feels ANGRY! Me: this can’t get anymore bullshit can it SWEETHEART: *OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!* SWEETHEART feels HAPPY! SWEETHEART cannot be made SAD or ANGRY! Me: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
This song playing in the background as your team gets taunted to hell, all steaming with anger really adds to the insanity of the whole track. Seeing everyones' Furious portrait really added too the experience too! Never seen anything like it!
SPOILERS: not to mention that his emotions being the only ones in his party that are able to go to extreme lengths (manic, depressed, furious), foreshadowing that omori is going to be a boss since only bosses are able to do that aswell. furious looks like something, depressed looks like omori when he looks at maris piano somewhere in the game that I forget, and manic looks greedy and unhinged to represent how sunny thinks that him being able to be happy makes him a bad person. this game is so brilliant with all of the little details I love it so much
i’m not even at this boss yet but i’m kind of in love with sweetheart??? just from hearing the mixtape and i’m so excited edit 12/30/20: i just started the boss battle. i crave death. why is she so strong.
Everything about this comment is so funny, the pfp, the fact that it's basically what one of the letters in her castle says, the edit, all of it, mwah.
I just woke up, and I happened to dream of some absurd stuff. In short, I dreamed that on TV they were showing an Omori anime with the same artistic and animation style that Osomatsu San has; and that at the end of each episode in the credits, World End's Valentine played in the background, and there were Omori, Kel, Hero and Aubrey flying with Pluto endlessly until the credits ended.
@@ckowkay Just thought of these to do if I want more pain Nomori Run: Can't use omori Hero Run: Only attack with Hero (everyone else legal for non attack moves) Glass Cannon Kel: All bosses must be completed using only Enraged Kel (everyone else legal for non attack moves) No girls allowed Run: No Aubery (including breaking walls and stuff aside from the roadblock)
My scale of emotions during my various attempts at Sweetheart’s fight: 1-3 - I love her design and this music slaps 4-6 - Why must you be so strong 7 - I’ll time how long it takes me to die 8-9 - Wait I was just underleveled this whole time DAMMIT KEL…wait you can swap movesets too? 10 - YESS I BEAT YOU I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOUR STUPID FACE OR HEAR YOUR MUSIC AGAIN!!!! Post-game - why tf does she have to be the fandom’s favorite
@@Corenebubae didnt know it was a thing i just read that flex+run n gun is good but i didnt use it, my luck is great and i kept getting angered, so i just kept it that way
I'm making my bet now: In a month, there's gonna be a bunch of remixes of this ABSOLUTE BOP floating around, at least 2 of which will sample THE WORLD REVOLVING.
god. genuinely my exact thoughts fighting her. what i ended up doing is spamming aubrey's team spirit and using kel to rubberband her while hero reduced her attack, + keeping omori sad with his sad poem and spamming stab. i also ended up releasing energy twice because i got lucky with her attacks never managing to toast anyone
SWEETHEART : * OMORI, get that banana! AUBY : * ...OMORI isn't gonna do what you say! [does not get it] SWEETHEART : * Oh! Ohoho! I said that on purpose! * Now you will suffer from potassium deficiency!
Nothing compares to the feeling of carefully selecting what moves to take for your turn at around 1:08 and hearing the music slowly ramp up again as you contend with the results of your choices and see how Sweetheart retaliates.
reading these comments and im so glad im not the only one who thought this was the boss battle that made everything click like “yeah this is the best game i’ve ever played”
Dude if your game can have a great story, GREAT music, great characters, a friggin plot twist that reveals the protagonist killed her sister and one of the most emotional endings ever, you have well deserved RIP alongside Toby fox and the whole team cherry
Undertale: Megalovania Omori: World's end valentines Me: *I see no difference* Edit 2021: Sweetheart: who are you? Queen(Deltarune): I'm you but 100% memeable
I'm definitely thinking the composer is a fan of Touhou. Absolute masterpiece of a boss theme and the instrumentation is just so fitting for Sweetheart.
I was already in love with pretty much every song in the castle area….. and then this happened. To say I’m speechless and in awe over how amazingly put together this is would be an understatement
This iconic OST paired up with battling Sweetheart gave me HUGE Umineko vibes. Not to mention that Sweetheart herself sorta looks like she could pass of as a witch in the Umineko universe and her crazy personality is kinda similar with both Beatrice and Lambdadelta's personalities. 💕💕💕
OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO OMORI feels ANGRY AUBREY feels ANGRY KEL feels ANGRY HERO feels ANGRY PLAYER feels ANGRY SWEETHEART can no longer feel SAD or ANGRY PLAYER feels ENRAGED PLAYER can no longer feel HAPPY
@@muhtesemsiyanur Atleast you know how to separate the good and bad sides of people in a fandom, unlike others who will lash out and say "X is cAnCeR" when it became too populR.
When I listened to this song for the first time, I hadn't played Omori yet, and didn't know whose theme it was. The song told the tale of an abandoned lover, filled with fury towards the cruel world and all who did them wrong. When I played the game, however, I learned that I was right, but that the song was written in the voice of the cruel mistress who abandoned him, as she laughs at his humiliation, all the while secretly fearing it herself, and the poetic justice that's about to be smacked right into her stupid, jelly filled face. Well done, Pedro Silva, you have created a masterpiece. And thank you, OMOCAT, for spreading it.
