RvB Character Themes - The Meta 

I swear man- the Meta was functionally perfect. He was EXACTLY what the show needed to raise the stakes. Him being a mute rendered him immune to the rambling antics of the Reds and Blues, creating a character that was impossible for the audience to relate to- a first for the series. Then, there came the 'death' of donut. Yeah, he doesn't really die but in the moment you don't know that. In the moment, it's the writers telling you they've stopped fucking around because now, ANYONE could die while the Meta was on screen. He single handedly elevated the show and raised the stakes, and even after his death, his legacy lives on as an unmatched monster. The show certainly didn't forget about him. Even after everything he did, the man inside the armor is still just a victim of Project Freelancer. It's such a chilling story.

The meta is the definition of “Actions speak louder then words”

Run, Agent Texas. We are the Meta and we will find you... Very soon...

"DID YOU ALL KNOW?" "INCLUDING ME?" "HOW COULD YOU KEEP THAT FROM ME?"

It says a lot that, even though he's long dead, The Meta's presence is still felt throughout the series.

Meta was like: " You get the boys. I'll take care of these guys. " ' Are you sure? There's an awful lot of them- ' " *THEY HIT ME WITH A TRUCK.* "

I had Meta's armor in Halo 3 and when I went over to a friend's place to play in a LAN party, I'd have this playing on the iPod dock speakers I brought as I was hunting people down and blowing them away with the brute shot, or blasting them away with the shotgun. ( I got every season OST, would find the Meta's theme in each of them as they came out and then use them as they came. Still sad that I never got to play Halo 4 with everybody long enough to get Felix's armor though. They both went to the Marines and I got a uh... certain sickness that kept me making visits to the hospital ever since. )

0:20 the heart rate of an RVB fan they hear this song 1:18 the heart rate of an RVB fan when they see the meta on screen

He need not speak, for his actions speak for *him*

When you wear the meta outift on h3 and then grab the brute shot

There was never a villain that fit the RvB universe like the meta. Not Felix, not Cronos, not Temple, not the director or chancellor. The Meta will always be what changed RvB forever

Has anyone else noticed meta is mentioned in every season after his death? Plus how they played his theme in season 16 it seems like Washington might become a meta prodigy

Even their villans were tragic . I mean Maine took a shot for Carolina and he really didn't have too, if she got hit it would have moved him up the board but thats how he was. But then he needed Sigma and thats when he started to lose himself. The Meta was a monster for everyone else to deal with,but there was still a guy somewhere in there who killed everyone he knew.

............ever get the feeling............like your being watched?

Everybody gangsta till the meta show up

i got chills scariest mute ever

The meta is the perfect character. He’s a badass, he’s frickin terrifying, he plays an important role in the entire series, he impacts the series as a whole, and he has an effect on all the characters, and he’s very very dynamic

Always been my favorite character,right next to Micheal J. Caboose

Man. Best character in RvB.

Church, there is no such things as Ghosts. You're one of them. You're an AI. You.... are The ALPHA!

The moment you realize that the meta has a spartan laser.

Red vs blue fan or not. If you hear this music, you know shit is Bouta go down

The most badass character in red vs blue

Anyone here after Season 16?

You run, Agent Texas. We are the Meta. And we will find you. Very soon.

The weird thing is that even though its a show and i know that the season 6 meta theme still gives me chills when i hear it

Bro all these themes still give me chills, the meta has to be one of the most badass characters in rvb

Still my fav Character

Even after drowning to death, The Meta was still making a presence.

Dun, dun dun Dun, dun dun Dun, dun dun Dun, dun dun Dun, dun dun Dun, dun dun Dun, dun dun

I remember setting up my Halo 3 spartan to look like the meta and then playing his theme over Xbox live. Those were the best of times

I love how in I think season 13 they reveled that the Meta never wanted to be evil, it wanted to be human, through any means necessary, it makes Maine and the Meta feel tragic in a way, Maine was the victim of a horrible organization, he was used as their brute, their strongman, he didn't matter to them outside of that. The Meta was a bunch of AI fragments who just wanted to be whole again but knew that the only way to become whole again would be to take the other fragments by force and to kill its way to humanity. What a truly amazing Villain for a show to have, one whos impact is felt for awhile with intresting dynamics with other characters, like Wash and Carolina, Wash worked with him after he lost all his AI, leaving behind a angry husk of a man just looking for anyway to become whole and stronger, Carolina seemed to be his friend long ago, she made no attempt to fight back when she first spotted the Meta pushing towards her to rip the AIs out her neck, she yells at Church saying "You didn't know Maine like I did" when he says shes acting like the Maine he knew, wanting more and more to be better. And of course his armor comes back, a suit full of powers operated once again by the fragments of Doctor Lennard Church, but this time to help people because the fragment was already human, Church basically reached the Meta stage for AI, and understood he could sacrifice himself for the greater good, fragments that would die after operating the suit but these were born not of torture and horror, but if humanity, love, friendship, made of hundreds of human memories felt by a AI fragment, letting the suit be used by a force who wanted nothing more then to save and help the people the Fragments would call friends. We got to see what the Meta would've been if the AI weren't so tortured.

Im so happy to see people still love the former RvB!

There is nothing left of Agent Maine, all that is left is the shell of a man.. Sigma has taken over.

God damn bro I miss the Freelancers. One of the best arcs for sure in RvB. Those new guys in RvB Zero just don't make the cut. Like, at all.

I play this when my wife comes into the room

We almost had the biggest return on the century. *He’s still out there, somewhere out there in virtual space now…. *The Meta.*

The Meta was the perfect personification of "Careful around the quiet ones". He gave no-nonsense, no restraint, no hesitation. And then learning he was a Freelancer was the most terrifying thing to know, knowing any one of them could have been him if he wasn't rendered mute. Like Carolina, since it was originally HER AI that started it all

Imagine if he came back.

The best kind of chills from this.

is it me? or does "another one down" sound kinda like "(when) your middle name is danger" but reversed?

The scariest fucking mute in the galazy

We need backstory of Agent Maine or inside the mind of the meta or what was maine. He deserves his own spinoff episode. And tbh all of the freelancers do. Even Agent Illinois so we get to learn more about him.

Doughnut: "Hey Simmons! Guess what? Blue team got a new soldier! Simmons: "What?! They sent another team member?? Why would they do that?! That doesn't make any sense. *Sees that is Meta standing in front of Doughnut* Simmons: "OH FUCK!!!" *Runs away* "Welcome to the neighborhood see you later!"

Heavy: I fear no man. But that thing.. it scares me. Scout: look I ain't gonna talking about that freak alright. Spy: one shatters to imagine what in human thoughts lies behind the mask.. what dreams of chronic and sustain of cruelty.

10:15 we are the meta

Red V Blue had a lot of badass, cool, and dangerous characters. But Meta had something else compared to the others, he was terrifying.

0:00 (When) Your Middle Name Is Danger 2:05 Another One Down 4:23 Absolute Control 7:09 Reparation 9:41 Reparation (it’s actually, bad memories)

Between this guy and Neo, I think we can all agree that RoosterTeeth makes the scariest quiet ones.

This man made me love the EVA set

"Trust me pal, you're not *that* guy."

“Is that-“ “an ancient weapon used by the scariest fucking mute in the galaxy? Yeah.”

There is nothing scarier than silence.

When you find out Mark Zuckerberg is a robot named the "Meta"

Man i still get the chills listing to this

The Meta hangs over this series like a shadow. Even long after its death, it lingers. You could hear hints of its amazing theme pop up in other pieces every now and then, its suit appeared, being compared to the Meta was the only thing that snapped Carolina out of her power grab, and much more. And, crucially, as long as Epsilon still has the Alpha's memories, it'll never truly go away. Sigma and his pet will never be far from Epsilon, because you can't escape what's in your own head. And that's why I'm so excited that the final season's trailer hinted that we're going back to Sigma and the Meta to wrap up some unfinished business. I'll see you all this Fall :) And so will Sigma

I honestly prefer his Season 6 theme, it radiated pure menace and terror, which is exactly what the Meta was. He was a man who was essentially, the unstoppable force and the immovable object. He stopped at nothing to achieve his goals and practically won every encounter.

I wonder what would happen if alpha possessed the meta like he did with the reds and blues, would he take control or would there be a internal fight between him and the other ai. Possibly giving the meta exact what he wants with a full ai under his control, or giving alpha the most powerful body with all the freelancer upgrades.

Just wanted to say thanks for putting all these together bro 🤟

Imagine the meta didn't die and he's just lurking in the shadows just waiting to make his move

When you know that your gonna Die a Brutal death, or a Epic fight depending on who you are

Tmw Eta and Iota aren't mentioned at the end as being part of the Meta even though they're the first ones he takes by force-

all of the songs are amazing!!!!!!

you know whats really cool about this video is you can see the line thingy go up and down when theres sounds

Halo's Terminator.

70 years later, he is dragged out of the ice and is given the weapons he had before his "death", joins a group of superheroes to fight against supernatural threats, and goes under the name of Captain Amer-... No, wait...

Chills man... Every frickin time... Chills

Anyone else coming back here after the new trailer?

Just searched this for no reason. Well, time to rematch this series for 34th time.

HE IS BACK

Something that I just realised is that the Meta uses a time distortion unit and remember when Wyoming or Church used it it left behind clones of the original person so if the meta used it then what happened to the clone

Best villain ever. Of all time.

Nice commentary, buddy

The Meta is my favorite villain ever. Of all time.

Nice vid man

He's like the boogyman of rvb

This better be updated with Tucker in the pics, XD

the meta is a badass

This man gave me my online Alias, best villain of all time

I love Red vs blue

00:22 when ur mom says shes on her way but the house is a mess and u haven't cleaned it.

I honestly wish they would bring him back

This is so sinister

I was listening while I had south park on in the background, so while I was listening and doing schoolwork, I just hear OH MY GOD! THEY KILLED KENNY! I honest to god pissed myself laughing

the 'of all time' in your description is a refrence to wash saying 'that was the worst throw, of all time' tell me I got you. also this is the theme that plays when you have an A.I named after a greek letter

I really wish they didn't kill of the Meta, they could of done alot more with his character.

2:05 is my favorite

The official oh shit song of the series

When you see the meta: are you F***ing kidding me???!!! RUN!!! Emile: I’m ready! How bout you?!? I’d kill to see Emile vs Meta

I wish we had more of the rvd in the halo later halo games lime halo 4-5-wars like takes of the meda the reds the blues n the all of project freelancer, find mains armor somewhere, or terminals of the reds active story in those games

Alternative title: Red and Blues PTSD theme

Scariest mute ever.

The Doomslayer is The Meta after going to hell You cant change my mind

2023 ... the birth of real AI has begun.

Metas watchimg you...

everybody gangsta until they find out the quiet kid is ripped

I swear Reconstruction was a fucking horror movie.

here before 100k

But in the death battle,
