Sen no Kiseki II OST - To A Glimmering Tomorrow 

loa luciferia fight is the embodiment of "maybe the real treasure was the friendship we made along the way"

Probably the most satisfying and memorable final boss in any game I’ve played. Perhaps exactly because it wasn’t some epic climax with the fate of the world at stake, but a deeply personal, intimate moment for characters we’ve grown to know and love.

"so it seems you needed good ol' crow to help you this time, i hope from now on you'll continue to move on your own....forward..."

This game made me feel like no other. I spent the entire CS1 and CS2 learning about the students, the country, and the lore of their history. At the same time, I felt like I was a part of their group, and we grew together. Fighting the last battle with this theme made me sad, knowing it's the end. And then Millium started crying and I just couldn't hold it in!!

There's just something really bittersweet about this song. It's triumphant, but also sad at the same time. It really gets the feeling of this moment across: "Our time as a class is almost over, let's have one last hurrah." Really makes it hit how the player's time with the class is ending too. I never expected to get as attached to these characters as I did. Though there is going to be a third game, so obviously we'll see them again soon.

Thou art possessed of a fine spirit.

At the cost of sounding extremely corny, I want to profess my love for Unisuga and this song. CS2's Finale hit hard. The decision of not ending the game there and instead showing the player what was happening in Crossbell was genius. Seeing the Rean vs Lloyd completely captures what makes Kiseki so special: There is no other series who can make you this invested in these characters and their world. And seeing two of our beloved protagonist having to fight for political reasons... It's truly something else. Rean, forced to fight war he didn't want to take part of, was truly at his bottom in these moments. He became a puppet in the hands of the government... Yet he still had a place to come back to: here comes the Epilogue. A final moment to enjoy the youthful school life the characters had in the past year. This Final Boss theme says everything I love about Kiseki. This isn't a climatic fight, the world isn't ending, no stakes are here, only the protagonists and a massive beast which proposed to test their will and spirits. This is _their_ final battle as friends and classmates. Now the thing that makes this final boss so special besides the context, is this absolute masterpiece of a song. I'm no music expert, I really have no idea how most instruments are even named nor do i know basic composition terms... But holy shit. Even I know perfectly that to make a song like this, you must be in love with the games and stories you're creating. *This song is talking.* I know it sounds cheesy, but when I listen to this song I literally _hear it_ narrate the story of Class VII. More specifically: 0:41-0:54 seems to talk about the joyful and innocent days. Reminiscing about the youthful times and the beginning. 0:54-1:09 seems to narrate the more chaotic, busy days of school. Taking tests and doing combat exams with Sara etc. 1:09-1:39 is the actual hard times, the challenges they had to face, the fights they fought against Crow and during the War. Then 1:40 hits. A wonderful melody that perfectly encapsulates the feeling of not being alone. Of fighting together. Of the happy, hard, sad, despairing and hopeful times everyone has lived through. This song is just friendship. This song is simply one of the most beautiful things ever created. Thank you Unisuga.

This song tells everything why we love JRPG. "It's time to say goodbye to our journey, the story will still go on, Let us make a flawless period here."

I've played a ton of RPGs, and this is easily the most unique final boss ever, and quite possibly my favorite one. No stakes, no reason, no reward.... Just one last hurrah for the characters I've come to love after all that time. A personal milestone before they go their separate ways.... And an occasion to let out everything they've been bottling up. The music is just amazing

The Loa of the Shadow Trial (i forgot his name) said that there is no reward in defeating him. But that's not true, his defeat gave Class VII their final triumph as a class.

This really is the “goodbye” song of this whole soundtrack. The final piece that plays in the final trial the class will overcome together as students.

The beauty of this theme didn't come from the music itself; it was the context of the battle that was accompanied with this complementary composition. Needless to say, this theme really did grow on me.

Such a great song for the final boss. It doesn't sound super dramatic, it doesn't sound super aggressive, but it _does_ sound climactic, perfectly fitting for the context. It's very sweet sounding.

Just goes to prove; Final Boss music doesn't always have to be Threatening or Gloomy. It can work while being happy too.

Fun times are over, those innocent days have came and went, now it's time to grow up and move forward relentlessly

Just finished my first play through. Easily one of my favorite games of all time and that ending.. An amazing journey until the very end. Bring on game 3!

This wasn't a boss battle, it was Class VII's goddamn victory lap! 💪

This felt like a very happy, final hurrah for Class VII and I loved it. It just made me glad to play the game.

you can say what you want about the epilogue of cs2 & how it feels tacked on but admit it...everything about this had you emotional for class vii’s final mission

The melody after 1:41 resembles the melody from “To the Irreplaceable People” and hearing the connection makes this much more meaningful, knowing that they are irreplaceable to each other and that Class VII (and the whole cast) is irreplaceable to us, the players. Sometimes I wish I could lose my memories about these games so I could rediscover these games and experience them again.

This was the song that sealed the deal for me for this series being my all time favorite game series. The first Cold Steel game was fantastic and reminded me why I love JRPGs so much. Absolutely love the story, my most favorite about the games is the characters and the soundtracks. It personally felt like an adventure with these awesome characters and seeing them grow and develop, the Cold Steel cast is my all time favorite ensemble cast. Rean Schwarzer ended up becoming my all time favorite character in gaming. This final battle and this song was really impactful, this wasn’t the boss theme it was as others have put it the final hurrah for Class VII as students and seeing who they have now become with your adventure with them. This whole series is literally incredible!!! Strongly recommend to those who are RPG fans.

I love how the final boss doesn't even really matter. They could be fighting an overgrown Pom for all they care. It doesn't matter that Loa's a big-ass white energy-dragon-thing. They *could not* give less of a shit. All that matters is that they're doing it together, and the game even takes the piss out of itself in the moment too, calling it "pointless" before Rean challenges Loa to a showdown and corrects the record on *why* they're doing it.

My GOODNESS what a game. After 340 hours in Cold Steel 1 & 2 I just could *not* cry like there was no tomorrow. There won't be this exact experience another time!

I love this song, and I feel that it's the theme of Class VII. This plays at the end of CS2, and CS3's track "Promise of That Day" includes melodies from it when you share special moments with class members. Obviously it's bittersweet when you hear it in CS2, but there's also so much hope there. Kind of like how their story has been all this time. They've all struggled, gone through trials both alone and together, but it's made them grow, become better people and able to see from each others' perspectives. At this point in the game, yes, Class VII must part, but that's not the end. There's so many more journeys left for them to take.

I absolutely adore this theme. It’s so triumphet yet sad. And hearing the melody again in the ending song of CS4 brings me indescribable joy

last night i finished cs2 i cried so hard damn, i miss emma and laura

Thus begins the shadow trial, show unto me children of man.

The final battle of Class 7... Fie i miss u :-(

My favorite piece of music from any Trails game so far.

Ah yes, the theme of everyone vanishing because I was too stubborn to change equipment lol.

Probably the most distinct final boss theme in tone just because of the hopeful nature of this track

The song already begins with a very motivating tone.

What a final boss theme! No epic, intimidating vocal choir. No terrifying, dominating organ. Just an uplifting, upbeat theme of hope that conveys the unwavering determination of a class that has grown together and knows they can overcome any hardships, no matter how big the obstacles that stand in their way.

One of the greatest moments and fights in my gaming history with rpgs. Trails of cold steel 2 brings you to your limits and this music at the end of the game where all fight together and bring this 150 hours story (with tocs1) to an absolutly fine end and fits perfectly in the picture. Your memories with class VII... Ah, its like a family. And even with trails of cold steel 3 and 4 or even the whole legend of heroes saga this fight gives me the goosebumbs of my life. And now... Lets fight together until the end and overcome the last trial!!!

This song was a great closing track for the first half of the Erebonia storyline. There wasn't really anything at stake, just a final battle fighting along friends. It's kinda nice being different in that its a cheerful final boss track but I liked it.

When i completed cs 2 i felt hollow like i was left behind and i didnt understand by then that class seven would graduate sooner and rean was staying but as i progressed in cs 3 i got over it

Duke Cayenne's actions not only caused destruction his actions have awakened the White Shadow which Class VII faced the embodiment of the chaos that happened in the second game which the White Shadow's reward give them a bittersweet ending

Nice final battle theme as Class VII! The feels! (Even Millium cried afterwards too! :'D)

Feels like a victory theme, sort of. And, well, honestly, just by making it, Rean and co. had already won.

last fight together as Class VII :')

I think Rean and "mirror" crow, as I call him as his spirit is a separate thing, doing their overdrive animation looks so epic as they're reaching for each other

Love the battle system in these games.

Man this song just hits you in the feels

There's something about the piano and violin accompaniment that adds to the emotion of the song and the atmosphere of finality.

This is basically the theme of Class VII. A rearranged version of this was used in Cold Steel 3 and 4 in scenes where Class VII (old and new) reunite or decide on something collectively as a group.

Falcom, my heart please.

Still my favorite ost, soooo goooooodd

this kind of song for a final boss theme, only this game can make it works

best final boss theme ever.

Best graduation music, bonus point if you completed this trials with only class vii member.

that time i didnt know there would be ss3 i felt like gonna cry and Rean was so cool .He turned his back and part from station like some kind of hero returning home that was the best that i had ever seen and the time i heard the news about ss3 i jumped a lot and so happy at that time what a good memory

학창시절의 기억이 좋았던 사람은 더욱 감정 이입해서 듣지 않을까. 싸울 필요도 없고 리스크 감수할 필요도 없고 아무 보상도 없다고 보스가 직접 말하지만 멤버전부가 반드시 이겨내야만 한다고 무언의 동의를 하고 함께하는 진정한 의미의 "졸업 시험". 절박하고 웅장한 노래도 잘 만들지만 이렇게 삼삼함에도 큰 감동을 줄 수 있는 노래도 만들 수 있다는게 놀랍다. 클리어 후 밀리엄의 울음은 짠하기 까지함. 근데 이 보스전 ㅈ같이 어려워서 패드 집어 던질뻔함 시벌

This isn't Loa Lucifeira's theme, this is the theme of Class VII

This fight was so brutal for me, haha. I was absolutely terrible at it. I was only playing on Normal, and it took me about five hours and three attempts before eventually beating it. And even then, I was only able to beat this boss due to using cheese tactics and just sheer luck that one party member who happened to get an S-Craft right before everyone died again and dealt just enough damage to wipe the boss out. It felt like such a fluke that I even won at all. But man, the music is fantastic.

I haven't even played 2 yet but this song really brings tears to my eye It's so beautiful so emotional.😢😢

Unisuga being unisugoi

the day draws near, for me to meet class VII again. just finished replaying I and II.

The final, final boss

This is “heck you, I fight for my friends” the musical

Boss : You don't have to it, you won't gain nothing for it, I'm not a menace of any sort Rean proceeds to give a cheesy spech saying how beating the crap out of it will solidifies his friendship with the Class VII

This is good choice for graduation videos theme

ذكرى؟نعم. شتاء 2016

This was a tough boss fight for me. I couldn't see anything due to my tears.

Even tho we can play as the adults, Elise or Alfin. The only legit way to win this final battle is by using only Class VII member, because this is their moment.

#ThankYouUnisuga a few days ago this was your graduation theme

The only reason I won this fight was the DLC zerum powders and capsules, and Emma XD She just dodged everything. It was so scary and amazing to watch lol

Hey... who started cutting onions...

7 years and I still heard Rean shouting (NOW)

It's nothing wrong with you Millium...

#ThankYouUnisuga

Damn this theme just hits harder after finishing cold steel 4

I cried bro wtf

soul...

2:07 reminds me of the first game's title screen music lol

Ah yes the graduation theme of Class VII.

Best boss

For some reason this theme makes me think of the battle against Asriel in Undertale, and there are some similarities between the two games, notably that the fight against the True End Boss is a culmination of the friendship you've developped with other characters in the game

That ending was completely and utterly pointless. I love it.

희망이 넘치는 마지막 보스 브금!!! 섬2 좋았지~~

Can this please play during my funeral ?

if anyone know where I can find the music sheet that would be nice :O for piano.

At 00:27 My emotions....

I find it odd that this is the most cherry final boss in the whole trails series lol

The execution of old class vii can be critiqued as much as people are willing to diss on them, but despite the flaws of having way too many characters and so little chemistry outside of rean on screen, I'd say this scene still hits differently after experiencing the crossbell doulogy (which is still the strongest overall arc for me, but as I played cs1 and 2 up to after Lloyd, I just played the two in a vacuum not knowing there's more to this series 😂, but I digress)

I want crow back😢

I was abusing my free Zeram Powders only because I found the boss very unfair

One of the most beautiful songs in the whole OST, for one of the worst bosses ever designed in any Trails game. Resistant to literally anything, lowers your HP to 1 whenever he wants and vanishes people in an AOE. Fun... not, especially in nightmare NG.

class 7 not full at this battle man,,, Crow,, remember him ? even he do appear that the end -_-
