Ishiwatari HAD to be proud of this song because it was in EVERY OTHER MENU in CT/CS. Story menu? There. Gallery menu? There. Replay menu? There. Network/Lobby menu? There. Options menu? There.
The beauty of this song makes me sad that Nu's arc was droped after only one game. She wasn’t at all in CS and was only a background villain CP and CF.
Bruh Blazblue is filled with so many BANGERS my but personal favorites always involve terumi, Susanoo, or Hazama I mean Gluttony fang and endless despair to Silent scream and MUST DIE to HAKAISHIN the snake boys get the banger themes
This is a phenomenal theme..... however WAILING WAILIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG A LOUD CRY OF PAIN OR RAAAAAAAAAAAAGE OR SORROOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW AND WITH A, WONDERFUL SINGING VOICE UNBRIDLEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDD WAILING WAILIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG A LOUD CRY OF PAIN OR RAAAAAAAAAAAAGE OR SORROOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW AND WITH, A WONDERFUL SINGING VOICE I WAS, BESIDE, MYSELF, MYSEEEEEEEEELF
Nu and Mu have amazing themes. Might be my top two in the series. Ragna's theme, Tager's theme, Celica's theme, Six Heroes, Must Die and Blood Pain, are excellent too and are some of my other favorites. There are a whole lot of others that are amazing too that I'm forgetting, but Blazblue music is generally superb! \m/
My favorite part of this song will always be my personal experience with it in Calamity Trigger. The gameplay matched the fight against unlimited Nu almost perfectly. The way i kept trying to block her only to see her chipping away my health while i couldn't do anything as the music builds up, then it kicked in as i started to get overwhelmed by the mix-ups and she would take 60% out of my health in a single combo and then i the match would often end with the chill flute part showing the brutalizing was finally over. Even now that i can wreck her shit rather easily even in Hell difficulty, i still remember the fight for when i first started playing TFGs and set the difficulty to very hard and spent hours getting the biggest video-game beating of my life. I think it would be safe to say that she is my favorite boss fight ever, cuz i didn't knew shit about the game or the story outside of Hakumen being OP in lore because of those deathbattle type videos, but then i get to her and for the first time a game made me feel like i was facing a world ending threat with the difficulty spike and the song to back it up.
Also the fact that at first the instrumentation is mostly the low voices, the bells and some kinda artificial drumming sound that even scratches at one point. All ominous ans godlike and artificial But when the female voice comes in there's a low bassline, which feels much more natural like the thumping of a heart
Also also, (yeah a year later) I notice that the male choirs are actually midi samples but the female vocals are an actual woman singing. Confirms the whole duality of artifical and human-like
@@Wiziliz Yeah, themes in online menus were changed. Depedning on the mode or server you were in. You could still use it as Battle BGM, but in menus are naturally stuck with whatever the dev chose. And in CT that was Awakening the chaos.
I do like many of the songs of Blazblue, but for the og blazblue, Queen of Rose has to be my favorite. Cs is Howling Moon, CP is Black and White, and CF has too many I like. The I listen to the most recently is Stand Unrivaled.
Reminder that this song is so good that used to be the gallery theme in calamity trigger and continnum shift. The only song better than this is its vocal version imo
I think my favorite theme is Black & White. Not sure I can go into detail, but there's just something really captivating in literally hearing two similar yet so different views on the world collide. Anyway, you did a great job analysing Awakening The Chaos. Instant subscribe. It's been a while since I've seen a passionate Blazblue channel. Keep it up, bro!
Isn't this the song that plays in the background for the "Extras" menu? I remember hearing this song for HOURs when I was grinding through this game's......Uhhhhhhhhhh interesting Story Mode to 100% Completion....yeah.
it was the menu music too i think. it really stands as a testament to how good this song is. i too, have listened to it for hours, but it still is one of my favorite blaz blue tracks.
English dub can be exceptional you know.. like most of the time. I learn this truth while watching many anime in Eng. It was a fun ride lemme tell ya.. them dub VAs I appreciate their craft.
Hooooold up there. StrIVe music is cool and all, quite the bangers. But better than Central Fiction music? Oh hell no. Maybe you meant the other way around lmao
Yeah... No, especially with how everything is having a vocal that pretty much try to spoon feed you the character way too much with almost no subtletty and how loud it is, STRIVE giving everyone a vocal theme also make it got old really fast to the point the theme start to feel samey accross each other, making pretty much every character having vocal theme also make vocal theme feel less special too, like before STRIVE barely any character in Arcsy game get a vocal theme which make the few vocal theme their characters got feel much more special, but since STRIVE give everyone a vocal theme it just feel much less special than it use too
