Can we talk about how Kirby fights these reality-destroying threats on the regular and no one recognizes him off the bat as the world-shattering powerhouse he honestly is?
I mean, he literally IS a world-shattering powerhouse since he and Void are one in the same Too bad the main characters can't read pause screens and listen to musical elements in tracks (yes I'm replying to a year old comment)
@@KarmaticFluff Kirby has secretly been a horror game all along. The horror is insidious, hidden under the surface. You may think it's the big bad that was secretly an eldritch being, but Kirby himself is beyond all comprehension. That is why no one recognizes how terrifying he is at first.
Well when you first meet Kirby all you see is a cute pink ball, so of course nobody realises how powerful he is. And you can't tell that he fights these things regularly since there's nothing left after he beats them. Like Kirby just looks the same before and after destroying something.
it's interesting how this song sounds like it is just growing tired of the struggle, getting more and more desperate to end a conflict to a pratically unkillable beast, it tells a story.
Honestly, it'd be awesome if Void's reincarnation made some sort of appearance in a future game, even if just as a cameo. Personally I think it'd be awesome if it had the same body style/face as Kirby, but with the werid white/rainbow color patterns it has in the boss fight, albeit with a bit more pink than the rest of the colors.

Oh, Dark Lord of Despair!_ _Crush the stars! Lay waste to care!_ _Upon your wing, dark judgment bring!_ _May your symphony of tragedy cause the end of everything!"_
Ever since he went to Rakuen (at least in the Japanese version, he gets to go to Paradise after Kirby finishes him off for the last time), I think Void Termina retired from this world-and-time-ending stuff. ...At least for now. The Japanese also keeps titling Void Termina as a considerably tamer "God of Destruction". Think of it this way--Shiva is also a god of destruction, and he is nowhere near prone to destroying worlds. (At least until it finally IS time for the world to end.)
"The final battle at hand, Void takes his first steps toward a new age. In place of tyrannical rage, will he find... naptime? Gentle breezes? Treats? He may even dream again... a dream of friends reunited!" Happy New Year Gametal!
"As the spring breeze blows, a young traveler appears. After greeting new friends and bidding farewell to old ones, his path has finally led him here. Let's beat this guy already! After that, lunch and a nap!"
This text is the base of 'positive astral birth void = Kirby' theory but you can't deny that 'little ball of absolute death' quite describe both of them
"We're finally taking on the most requested GaMetal song of all time" Does it mean... *_Is it time for Magikarp Festival to rise and shine once and for all?_*
This forced me to go back to Designing For's analysis of the Void Termina battle in "Designing For Friendship." Is Void a fallen deity or is Kirby a reformed god of destruction? The answer is, "Run."
3 years in a row, the finales have been incredible! 2017 - Adventure's End 2018 - The Darkest Lord 2019 - The Star-Conquering Traveler Man, must feel great to finally get Void done. I bet you feel like you can do anything! ;)
This is a perfect ending song for the decade. I feel like this was the decade where Kirby came back and better then ever. And this is honestly my favorite final boss theme in any game. Also, I want to say, thank you for all the wonderful music this decade. I am glad I discovered this channel. Hoping for more in the next decade. And of course, HAPPY NEW YEAR!
TheCrowdedOne every month, Jonny streams the monthly Patreon drawing where he randomly chooses a song from the Patreon Request List (all patrons of tier 3+ get to pick 3 songs to be put on the PRL, Jonny chooses one of them to be entered into the drawing) to be put onto the to do list. He also handpicks a song from the PRL himself every month as well. In order to be able to watch the drawing streams/see the to do list you have to join his Patreon, and to be entered into the drawing you have to join at Tier 3 or higher
I think GaMetal playing this song on New Year's Eve is why 2020 is destroyed. Void Termina has unleashed the coronavirus, riots, and global chaos...soon everyone on the planet will perish.
The year started with a remix of a multiverse destroyer's theme. Ended the year and decade with a remix of a multiverse destroyer's (and creator's) theme. We go full circle huh? Thank you Jonny, for everything you've done, if this isn't a hell of away to end the decade, I don't know what is.
Honestly I think the Void is Kirby theory is just a bunch of shit. The happiness stated to be coming in the pause screens indicate the return of Astral Birth Void, the good god known by the ancients who was the multiverse creator, after Termina, the corrupted form is destroyed.
@@xx_squirtle8621 Yeah the lore on Void is pretty vague, but he is known to be the ancestor of Dark Matter… and Kirby! Hope we get more lore later this month
HE FINALLY DID IT!!! ENDING THE DECADE ON AWESOME NOTE! LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW YEAR! God the slow part gives me chills every time and he captured it perfectly with the guitar. Such a heavy fight if you know all the implications and lore... Love the Nintendo GaMetal bit and then the solo!
(Possible spoilers for various Kirby games) So 0 was a Kirb all along? That explains the Snow costume for Kirby that's white with red feet... kirby.fandom.com/wiki/Spray_Paint (And maybe Carbon is Dark Matter?)
I'll be honest, I figured you'd do this later, due to this song being quite the undertaking. But, I'm pleasantly surprised by this last day upload. Very nice work. Aside from O2, Void is my favorite final boss in this whole series.... And you did this song justice.
Everyone: "Okay but what about Void Termina." Jonny: *Waits until the last day of the year to do it.* Edit: I know this is a common thing, but this is the most likes I've ever gotten. Thanks for 666 likes hehe.

When Jonny eventually does a live show in the distant future, everyone is going to demand that he does both Dancing Mad & Void, & only then Jonny will realize that he probably shouldn’t have made 2 12-13 minute songs in the same year.
Now that you said it, yeah, it kinda does ! Remind me of the first time I listened to the delicious final song of Octavarium, 24 minutes of pure emotion. Now the same but it's only 12 minutes long unfortunately...
"No telling if it’s true, but according to the ancient scrolls, Void Termina may rise again in other forms depending on whether positive or negative energy is gathered. It seems this being of darkness will wander the galaxy until one day he is reborn into a new existence. When he returns, hopefully it will be as…a friend." - Pause Screen VS. Void Soul. ... I ain't kiddin', go check for yourself.
Top 2 times veterans cried due to a bosses theme: #1: Void Termina, when 8-bit Green Green's reveals everything you need to know about this boss. #1: Soul of Cinder, phase 2. Exact same reason , but with a piano... And its a boss you actually want to put down.
I AM BEYOND HAPPY. Your Kirby covers are one of the main reasons I subscribed because they’re incredible. To do, while not my favourite final boss in the franchise, but the most impactful one I really do appreciate. Godspeed, Jonny. Here’s to an amazing 2020.
The Song of Supplication (Johnny Atma Version) In spite of all, cold as ice! In spite of all, hard as stone! In spite of all, hear our comments! In spite of all, all alone! In spite of all, we reconcile! In spite of all, we pass the trial! In spite of all, hear our comments! We beg of thee! We beg of thee! In spite of all, we comment for you! Please hear our pleas and remix for us! In spite of all, lobsters attacked! In spite of all, darkness grew! We call to you! We dream of you! In spite of all, this all for void! In spite of all, cold as ice! In spite of all, hard as stone! In spite of it all, it would seem…in spite of all, we’re but a dream. Hear our plea, you must! (You must!) Please remix the void for us! (I'm not good at editing lyrics but I feel happy with this)
The best part is that this was uploaded *exactly* at midnight in the country I am in. It was perfect timing! Love this remix, I gasped when I saw it on my notifications! Keep up the good work, hope things go well in 2020! Oh, and damn, that next one's gonna be a great listen as well.
Jonny, you exceeded everything everyone expected, & that’s saying a lot considering how high the expectations were. I’m not kidding when I say that even when the bar is set super high, you still manage to surpass the bar. Happy 2020 Jonny, & here’s to many more.
Unbelievable. I just got back home from visiting some friends for the new year, and the last thing we did was beat Soul Melter EX. Like... an hour ago. I come home and see this... This is the best way to finish off the night. Thank you so much. Always amazed to see more Kirby from you!
FINALLY! THANK YOU JONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNY! What a way to end the decade! This cover was ABSOLUTELY beautiful. I would have suggested putting the Star Allies Sparkler/Parallel Mage Sisters theme at the end, but we take those! PeaS: The Heavy Lobster prophecy has been fulfilled! Happy Birthday Dark Lord! Happy Birthday!
When I heard the acoustic guitar, I got _chills._ Phenomenal work as always, Jonny. I'm always impressed by your dedication to not only covering songs, but adding your own personal flair that really puts it on another level. Here's to another great year of GaMetal.
This... I don't think I have ever clicked on a video faster than I had before seeing this in my notifications. This song was absolutely amazing to listen to in the Kirby Star Allies, this is just as well an amazing song to hear remixed. A great song to end off the year.
I didn't realize how popular these themes are, even having played Kirby Star Allies. The amount of requests for this were insane! I love Star Allies because of the many references, playable characters, and how Void Termina is a reference to Dark Matter. Very intense remix, I like it and hope those who asked for it enjoy it too. Happy 2020!
You must have been working hard on this remix, and then you finally star conquered the year perfectly. I have no opinion that this was the greatest song in my entire life, of the entire year and even the entire channel, you rock man!
I only recently noticed the green greens motif, thanks to this I can hear it better. XD Wonderful cover Jonny. Let's see what chaotic fun this new year will bring us!
The more and more Kirby erases the bad emotions from void the more chaotic Yet peaceful the song becomes towards the end when we get green greens it’s I sign telling us that void has almost been healed I friggin love star allies and I hope Nintendo doesn’t stop here and I hope they continue the Kirby franchise
*This starts playing in distance* Me: why do I hear Kirby boss music? The source of the music: aaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH Me: oh no, it too well made AAAAAAAHHH
