The Edge of Dawn [8-Bit; VRC6] - Fire Emblem: Three Houses 

"If the professor doesn't show up in 15 minutes, we are legally allowed to play with his NES"

Somehow this makes me nostalgiac for a game I've had for a month

Woo a version nintendo might not take down

Dimitri did it. He killed every last one of them. The madman

You should absolutely give this game a try. No prior knowledge of the series needed.

That Edelgard pixel art is adorable!

edelgard: destroy the crest system and make everybody equal dimitri: get revenge on the people who killed his parents claude: E N D R A C I S M

I wish there was a bonus mode where characters would be good old sprites on the overworld and music would sound like this, and then when you attack it fades back to full blown orchestra and you see the 3D characters duking it out before zooming out and coming back to retro style sprites and music :p

When you realize that this song is sung from edelgard's perspective, it really hits me hard.

0:37 - 0:47 the heartbeat gets me every time because byleth only gains it in CF.

I have never heard 8-bit do a slur or vibrato and I am absolutely blown away!

It's 8-bitlgard.

Lyrics (if people want it): Reach for my hand, I'll soar away Into the dawn, Oh, I wish I could stay Here in cherished halls, In peaceful days I fear the edge of dawn, Knowing time betrays Faint lights pass through colored glass, In this beloved place Silver shines, the world dines, A smile on each face As joy surrounds, comfort abounds, And I can feel I'm breaking free For just this moment lost in time, I am finally me Yet still I hide, Behind this mask that I have become My blackened heart, Scorched by flames, a force I can't run from As I live out Each peaceful day Deep in my soul Oh, I know I can't stay So I wish I Could hide away Hold tight to what I love, Keep cruel fate at bay As the rain falls on the path, I chase your shadow I don't feel a single drop, Or the ground below Then you turn to me and I Stop before I know And the lie upon my lips I let it go Cross my heart Making vows I know will be betrayed A sad girl's pleas Live only for a breath and then they fade Don't ever take Back your kind hand Lest precious love Slip away like time's sand Only we will know All that was lost Scars that we can't erase Show us life's true cost The blue moonlight Cuts across our sight As pure and clear as a ringing bell Reaching for us in the night As the wind calms my thoughts, I have strung on this terrace I feel at peace, Carried away by the wind's song Open the door And walk away Never give in To the call of yesterday Memories that made Those days sublime These ruined halls entomb Stolen time Reach for my hand I'll soar away Into the dawn Oh, I wish I could stay Here in cherished halls In peaceful days I fear the edge of dawn Knowing time betrays

I'm all over 3H's OST right now; this couldn't have been uploaded at a better time. Truly, a gorgeous cover.

I love the nostalgia i get from this, hard to believe three houses is almost 3 years old.

When 9S hacks into Garreg Mach.

I have yet to hear a single bad take on this song. Speaks for the original.

日本から見に来ました！すごいです！！ エーデルガルドのドット絵もしっかり作られていてすごいです！！ I came from Japan! It's amazing! ! Edelgard dot paintings are also made well and amazing! !

Wonderful work as always. If there are more Three Houses covers in the future, I know what I'll be listening to on repeat.

There's something about 8-bit covers that make you feel nostalgic for a game that's only been out for 2 months

“Hey guys, wouldn’t it be funny if we made the theme for Fire Emblem: Three Houses be from Edelgard’s perspective, but give her the shortest route in the game?” I feel an immense amount of suffering.

This is absolutely fantastic. I almost want to say that I love it more than the original, but I can't say for sure. They're both so good! Also, I can't help but imagine an animation of each route in different parts of the song as this plays, so a pipe dream of mine is now for someone to make that happen.

2 Edge of Dawn covers/remixes within an hour. I love this

Edelgard von Hresvelg ❤

[Thanks to the efforts of Byleth, your allies are filled with DETERMINATION]

HOLY SHIT. This is incredible! The way you have meticulously fine tuned the intensity of the vibrato in different parts of the song makes it more expressive and reflects the different little phrasings of the vocalist!

"Greetings professor, nothing to report" - Real MVP

I look to you, like a red rose Seeking the sun No matter where it goes. I long to stay, where the light dwells To guard against the cold That I know so well.

Thank you so very much for this. It’s a reminder that, no, 8-bit music doesn’t have to be action packed, but can just be graceful, peaceful, and simply beautiful. This is always going to be what I share with people who don’t believe me when I say that, because, 8-bit music, as much as I have, and will continue to, love it for what it is, most often gets stereotyped as needing to be “high octane,” which, as I said, isn’t true. Much like many other different genres/styles of music, it can be calm, serene, and a true work of art. Again, thank you for this. This is wonderful.

Man you can hear the effort you put into this, amazing work!

You seem to have perfected the bass with this one. I've never seen anyone get so much damn BASS out of the VRC6 as you do.

I'm dying for more Fodlan Winds!

You know it's a good song when it sounds nice as an instrumental, when it has lyrics, and when it's in 8-bit

What a cruel irational world we are livin the crests are to blame

Mad respect for your work, seriously.

Even in 8-bit, this track is still a beauty

I love this so much it sounds so cool. I’m a black eagle at heart and I honestly love Edelgard’s character sm

This always makes me feel sad, like everytime this plays, sadness and nostalgic kicks in. Just that good of a song that it can me feel like such.

If "Fire Emblem: Three Houses" was released on the Famicom:

This is phenomenal! Listening to this gave me chills, it was that good.

I cannot explain just how much I love this game. One of the best ones I've ever played.

Does anyone else wish the "Love this" Button exists :') Because a simple like doesn't express just how much I can relate to Edelgard in this song, to the point where I sing this not just because I love it, but because those words, that feeling, are much like my own. Point is, this is amazing :D

Quality is always expected from you. Love it. 💖

I remember this song from the trailers and it always just sounded nice, and I love your rendition of it!

0:51 to 1:13 is the best part of the song to me.

I love this! Thanks so much for the dope chip tunes!

This has to be one of the BEST covers of The Edge Of Dawn I've heard in a GOOD WHILE! Well done!

This is your best work! Love this rendition!

Pitch bends are perfect! Very, very nice work.

This... is beautiful.... I am going through a hard time as we speak and I literally reached for this song's 8-bit hand. I'm a bit late to this, but thank you, Branflakes. I hope You continue to make wonderful content such as this. My Spirits have been revitalized.

THIS IS SO GOOD

Awesome job on this!!

It doesn't matter how much I see Edelgard as the wrong one. Her theme always make me feel bad for her 😫

This is incredible!

Oh damn you should definitely give this game a try dude! It's really amazing and very vexing on ones feelings Everyone playing it sees another 'true' enemy so I think it really is a good experience to make!

You had me hooked by the first note. I now have this saved on my computer and I will *never* delete it.

I like this cover, it's very well done. Also without lyrics I can actually barely listen to it without curling into a ball of tears after about half a minute.

I haven’t played three houses but this is still very good! Keep up the great work!

Goodness, thank you for your dedication to making this it's absolutely amazing, I just finished FE3H too XD

Thanks for making this cover!

Listening to this masterpiece again in honor of the new FE 3 Hopes warriors game trailer.

beautiful

Excellent work with this! 🖤

DUDE. THIS IS AMAZING!!!!

Here we go boys

I love this song so much

This is fantastic. Well done!

This is so beautiful man

"I am the king of grappling." Balthus, King of grappling

AMAZING

OMFG THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!!!

This is definitely your best one yet!

When you are the only blue lion boy in the comments

WHO DARES TO DISLIKE THIS GOD LIKE MUSIC

Amazing arrangement!

This is really good! It sounds like it's from a completely different game with its own awesome 8 bit tunes.

「フレスベルクの少女」ですね！ ファイアーエムブレム風花雪月めっちゃ楽しいですよね✨ 日本のカラオケでも歌ってます♪ 疾走感があるけど儚さもある素敵な曲の8-bit版最高です！！

Dancing in a chair in this study room forgot you can see inside.

Really nice! love that bass

This is so good omg

0:51 I burst into tears. This sounds amazing.

Man, I’m so glad that three houses didn’t pull a fates. If instead of Cindered shadows, we got a 4th route where everyone teams up and is all happy like revelations, it would’ve ruined the game. The best part about 3H is how each path has a good ending where Fódlan improves, but no ending is completely satisfying due to the sacrifices that had to be made. The gray morality of the Empire vs the Church was really well done in my opinion. Rhea and the church did some undeniably fucked up things, which would give Edelgard the justification for the war, but by needing the help of TWSITD, she’s seen as the bad guy by most no matter what. Sure starting a war is bad in just about any scenario, but does that include starting a war to depose a tyrannical dictator who has controlled the continent for a thousand year unopposed?

why does this sound so good as 8bit! this is awesome!

To me. This exudes nostalgia from a point in my life where things were happier. I guess it's more in line with who I am now then who I was then Anyway, lovely remix. I care for it a lot

Me: this is a beautiful 8-Bit version. *Looks at 0 dislikes* Me: Mom please stop cutting onions right next to me

Can we appreciate the beauty of this game? The music team developed this song, which made me cry before I knew the meaning behind the lyrics. Plus, the story is well told, as unless you recruit everyone, you are forced to reconsider war as you slaughter the other students, creating a beautiful moral gray. GGs I.S.

This feels so nostalgic i feel like im in tears

I never cared much about the original song, but stumbled upon this via RU-vid recommendations and absolutely love this version. Great job!

I can’t go back to this game whilst knowing how poor Dimitri ends up if I don’t side with him again...

Imagine this being a song back in the day in an old NES game. That woulda been unreal lol. I know a real NES probably couldn't support a song like this though.

Please do more! It's so awesome!

This sounds beautiful

This does make me remenber my childhood playng mega man and ninja gaiden

My wyvern rider Edelgard was a better Daenerys than Daenerys. atleast she wasnt the one who burned an entire city

Wow, I listened to this song so much a year or two ago now. I did a lot of my school work while this was going, lol.

That was awesome. Thanks for that.

I'm crying again 😭😭😭

This remix makes me turn from a Black Eagle to a Moping Eagle 'cause 'tis so good.

This song is simply beautiful.

Chills the whole time
