Ice Vellumental: ICE MAZE Switch Screen Capture: My time has come

I can't believe how well that violin fits with an electric guitar and drums.

I love the fact that at 0:50 you think the song is going to restart but instead it goes for an epic last part

The fact that Olivia always mentions that the vellumental was being folded really makes you wonder how they looked like before. I mean, good for us that they are, we probably wouldnt have to battle them if they werent, which means we would have never got to hear this music. Yeah I know, horrible thought.

0:38 goes hard man. I loved hearing this in the battles

Water Earth Fire Ai- sorry I mean Ice

STOP RUNNING INTO THE BURNING FEATHERS

This. This is why Origami King’s soundtrack is my new favorite in the series.

Ah... My favorite battle theme in the game. I had the biggest grin on my face when I first heard it and this is the theme that really convinced me that this game was going to have an outstanding soundtrack. Just listen to the violin go at 0:38... Perfection.

My dad looking the fully charged water vellumental: “I think he needs to pee soon with all the water he’s drinking.”

Something I've noticed so far, these Vellumentals seem to based on creatures from Chinese folklore. A turtle, dragon, phoenix, and a bear.

Fire vellumental: Moltres Water vellumental: Salamence Earth vellumental: Torterra Ice vellumental: Beartic Vellumon: Gotta catch 'em all!

You gotta love how Paper Mario's head is bopping to the tune of the godlike Vellumentals' theme right before he charges off through the rings to lay down the smackdown with Olivia by his side. God, this theme is SO damn good! It makes fighting these things SO much more worth my time.

‘Mario used ‘Brutal Fold Arms!’

this went sooooo hard

0:37 This part is pure magic... ✨️

i love how the song goes with the fire vellumental's wings flapping

0:04-0:07 I love when the console has to throttle here during the loading battle screen as this part is dope.

The Baritone Saxes(I think that’s what they were) reminded me of the Runaway Train in Color Splash

Earth: Pretty easy and fun tutorial. Water: Analyze every move you make to ensure the Spouts don't wash away the important stuff. Fire: If the field is too cluttered, try to put at least one heart in your next path. Ice: Use your finger (or the camera if you need to) to memorize the path you have to take.

Those guitars are so heavy! I need to cover this as soon as possible.

Theme of "You dun goofed."

I love re-fighting the bosses just for this theme!

Earth: Simple tutorial boss Water: took me a billion tries on first playthrough Fire: Makes no sense Ice: why isn't it AIR

"Oh dang i'm so used to Paper Mario 64!" - literally me

Was not expecting this masterpiece at all. This amplifies the atmosphere surrounding the battle and adds a sense of history and god-uhh-things making is truly incredible. It starts good but then that violin just makes this even better. Another great piece!

Man the goosebumps I got when this song first hit in game. That's a good song when it does that! Especially those hard-hitting doomsday notes that are amplified in the passive/thinking mode of the song. You could feel the weight and urgency of your decisions. Great composition!

I was very pleasantly surprised when the first boss wasn't an inanimate object but an ancient creature with the power to *conjure earth*

Gives me goosebumps. I was going crazy when I first heard this

Probably my favorite boss theme of every game ever... AND PERIOD!!!

The freaking Fire Vellumental. I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it Edit: THE ICE ONE IS WORSE

The Vellumental temples were some of the best parts of the game for me. They really nailed the zelda dungeon vibe and gameplay on the head with this game.

This theme is amazing 😍

This song is more common than what’s supposed to be the “general” boss theme, not that that makes either song bad!

Knowing Nintendo records a lot of their OSTs with a live band, I would've loved to see the recording of this one :(

The bangeriest banger of all time

"Vellum is prepared animal skin or "membrane", typically used as a material for writing on. Parchment is another term for this material, and if vellum is distinguished from this, it is by vellum being made from calfskin, as opposed to that from other animals, or otherwise being of higher quality." Source: Wikipedia

Fire velumental is just a paper moltres Change my mind

Ah yes, origami inflation dragon

This music gives me a strong Super Paper Mario vibe, specially at 0:37

Am the only one think the vellumental battles have Final Fantasy vibes?

0:34 so 🔥

This song is up there with never let up from m&l dream team

This is SO GOOD for only playing like 4 times

For the first boss theme you hear in the game, this goes incredibly hard; easily my favorite theme from the game. Hole Punch is a close second and Stapler's third.

I played through super a month ago 100% (ok technically 99% I'm missing 2 cards but i grinded to hell and got bored) and I'm actually kinda questioning buying this game. I bought color splash and played it twice... I'm just watching all da youtubers play this. HO-LY shit this song is awesome!

Me: FRUSTRATION My brain: Oh the music is cool Me: Bangs my head to the music in FRUSTRATION (I don't actually do this. This is all jokes... Except for the FRUSTRATION! That parts real.)

Olivia Came In Clutch Against The Ice Vellumental!

mario when he runs into burning feathers: oh no! anyway

The fire vellumental took forever, dont wanna know how bad the ice vellumental is...

Nintendo should do music for every bosses fights in games :)

My god the water one was so annoying, strangely I only had problems with the ice one in the king Olly boss fight ended up retrying to get a easier venumental lmao.

As a musician i can tell they had alot ot fun making this track, i would too!

This song is more fire than the Fire Vellumental itself

I know people hate fighting the Vellumentals but can we appreciate the boss theme?

We getting better at origami wit this one 🗣🔥🔥

This needs more attention

I was just listening to the battle themes of this game and I almost completely forgot the Vellumentals exist

1:09 this got me head banging so hard

Violin, electric guitars and saxophone? What kind of masterpiece os this?

When you have 5 minutes left on a test

the strings bring me to my knees 🥺 so good

Do we agree that the fire is a shiny moltres, the ice a beartic and the ground a big koopa ?

Vellumental like elemental masters like: Cole: master of earth 🌎🌍🌏 Nya: master of water 💧💦🌊 Kai: master of fire 🔥 ☄️❤️‍🔥 Zane: master of ice❄️🧊🥶 P.s: if you know, like me

This music is cool too

Ah yes! The theme of Mario beating the crap out of GODS (and Goddesses- not assuming genders) with his shoes, hammer and bare hands!!!

Me when I get attacked by a polar bear that can make mazes out of ice

ok this actually good tho

This isn’t just the best paper Mario boss theme it’s the best Mario boss theme

Slaying gods in a Mario game

listening to this theme for 30 minutes bcuz of the fire vellumental boss🔥🔥🔥

WHY IS THERE NO AIR VELLUMENTAL

0:38 makes me think of the toads in the bleachers cheering you on

1:56 is my favorite part of the theme, despite how short it is. Hopefully someone else can appreciate how imposing the aura of this motif is!

Love or hate this game, you gotta admit, the music slaps.

The Fire Vellumental was H E L L

There is something about the way the violin hits at 0:38 that just... it's just quintessential Paper Mario soundtrack to me! It's so elegant; grand, yet mysterious-sounding. It's a very specific vibe that I've always associated with Paper Mario.

Water Vellumental: Uses This Move Deviant Artists: Its My Tine To Shine

I feel good knowing i never died once on my first playthrough.

Pro tip for Ice: Capture button. The bottom of the left joy con. Next to minus on the pro controller. Bottom left on Switch Lite.

Earth, Water, Fire, and Water again but cold. Really couldn't have done air or electricity

I still remember how i somehow beat the ice vetumental without solving his puzzle rather using a fire flower and i killed it

I am disappointed that the last Velumental is not a tiger. I was pretty sure that they would follow the Japanese / Chinese Cardinal Symbol beasts : The Black Turtoise Genbu The Azure Dragon Seiryu The Vermilion Bird Suzaku The White Tiger Byakko With the yellow dragon as a super boss… When i saw that the forth beast was a bear, i was crushed

0:17 Sticker Star vibes?

I ❤ THIS THEME, BECAUSE THEN I'VE CAN DO EVERYTHING!!!!!

Am I the only one that loved beating these things into a pulp with the arms after getting help from my stream chat throughout the entirety of the puzzles and then being asked am I okay, no?

0:38 favorite part

Saw the big musician mashup and I really liked this song

I swear this sounds like the shy guy bandit theme from color splash

Pro tip for ice vellumental: Just move the 1000 arms tile to the front of Mario

POV:the music that plays when you're fighting for your life when you're the first one to sleep at a sleepover

I love this song, it inspired to write one of my fanfics.

I just struggled too much with the ice and fire vellumentals, It took me a lot of time, and I didn´t died.

this sounds like it would be right at home in shin megami tensei in the orchestral rock parts

The vellumentals are actually kinda wrong, expect for the fire vellumental, suzaku is the vermilion bird of the south, and represents fire, but the other ones they get it wrong, the earth vellumental, genbu is the black turtle of the north, is actually supposed the water vellumental, the water vellumental, is seiryu the azure dragon of the east, who is supposed to the wind vellumental, and the ice vellumental is the one who got the most worng, byakko who they are supposed to be is the white tiger of the west, and is supposed to be the earth vellumental, so if I were to switch vellumentals around, I would have you meet the earth tiger vellumental in the east, then the fire Phoenix vellumental in the south, then the air dragon vellumental in the west, and finally the water turtle vellumental in the north, so you go earth to fire to air to water.

This feels so mideavel Britain times No seriously this whole game does ❤

It's interesting how doing the Vellumentals feels like mandatory side missions to get past some kind of roadblock.

ay they need award for that violin playing 0:38

"freeze the 1000-Fold Hand magic circle one more time and I'll double the rate of climate change" - me doing the Ice Vellumental Boss
