❤ascension ❤ this ost 🙏🏻 for this video

2:11 I have text on screen at this moment saying the repeated halfstep implies the Sephiroth motif, but it obviously is just a different part of Shinra Inc.

You’re videos have been recommended to me for a while now and boy am I glad I finally tuned in. Your channel is absolutely amazing with serious quality content. I instantly subscribed :)

Okay after the video, im dusting of my ps2 to play Xenosaga. Thanks Torgal.

My favorite " have you not looked outside the window "

Can't wait for you to get to the other AC motifs used throughout, it was one of my favourite parts of the score!

Let's goooooooooo!

I seriously don't know how your channel hasn't blown up the algo yet. It makes the game 10x more interesting to me to see how many careful little details they put into the soundtracks. I hope this reaches a wider audience someday because man, this music and your insight both deserve it.

All right, well these three videos were amazing. Time to check out every other video on your channel...

I just got recommended this video and wow, this deserves more views than it has. You did a great job organizing this soundtrack. I'm learning a lot, including the word 'antepenultimate.'

Oh wowww Ryo Furukawa arranged Ascension, In The Riddle, Logos and No Risk, No Reward??? And apparently he also arranged one of my favourite FFXIV track called "In The Balance"??...he definitely is underappreciated!

Insane video, so detailed. Can’t wait to watch all of your other videos, especially Rebirth! 😂

Bro, I've been trying this for hours over three days using another video. LITERALLY tried your strategy for the first time and got it right away with some ridiculous time of 1:34. Omfg, thank you. Eff these frogs man!! 🐸

Thanks man you are a hero :D Managed it just at the last second💪

49:48 can someone pls explain?

37:00 the wrong cids had me dying especially the owl one

30:38 bro gave up had me dying

19:32 whats that game

Before this video, my life was in the toilet. I had mounting debt, from paying so called "professional frog coaches", my marriage was falling apart ("all you think about is those damned frogs!" She was right) and my career prospects were seriously hampered by my constant watercooler discussions about "jump timing breakpoints" and "rotational vector theory". Today i am a new man, and i will live my life as it ought to be lived.

I still can't believe this game is real... the music team went above and beyond with this soundtrack, it's nuts! Be prepared for what comes next, it never stops getting crazier ;)

Dude again, super cool video! I like that you're going chronologically with the in-game music, so many little arrangements and tracks that are absent from the soundtrack and now I get to give a proper listen with added analysis! I don't know how long you intend to keep going like this but if it's chapter after chapter, I'm here for the ride haha, great job and good luck!

I used this strategy and had like 20 seconds to spare. Thank u so much. I would have never done it without your video!

I needed this! Can't wait to watch the rest later :)

Love your analysis!

Zangan's theme reminded me very strongly of the Veldt theme in FF6

Its really cool to have these analyses laid out and made explicit, even if we can just form conjecture/theorize about them, its awesome to be given to space to do so by these videos/this work you do !

Thanks for the video. I really enjoy your insight on the music.

Underrated video! Great job!

Stuck on this game for untold hours and two tries after your stick to the middle advice and it’s done. Thank you.

Pumped for part 3 and a comprehensive breakdown of remake. Awesome work.

Thank you thank you thank you for this amazing video. I'm mad it was just recommended to me bc I try to watch all the music stuff behind xvi

Thank you thank you thank you for this amazing video. I'm mad it was just recommended to me bc I try to watch all the music stuff behind xvi

This is really awesome! It's so much fun to find out or explicitly reflect on all of these musical references, your voice is well suited for this, and your editing is on point. It's also clearly your own style, which should help you in the long run. I was very surprised when I saw how little traffic this channel currently has - you could definitely do Alex Moukala numbers just by keeping up everything you do in these Rebirth analysis videos. I hope to see your channel grow, I really want to see more of your analyses. Good luck!

Thank you very much for your video! Helped me greatly!

You're a hero! Got it in 3 tries thanks to you 😊

Not alone is my absolute favorite track from ffxvi. Instantly captivated me !

This is so damn good, thank you for making this!

I have no words...... I began to accept that the excellence and sublimity of ffxvi music are lost on people. I had been desperately searching for YT vids that discuss the topic in-depth but to no avail (until now). I'm a person who is deeply affected by music, and when 'Ascension' came on during the throes of the battle against one maddened Bahamut, i was completely swept away by the aesthetic perfection of the music, the plot, and the visual, which had come together to create a singularly unforgettable moment in storytelling. This may sound cheesy, but that moment in gaming and the track changed my life. I might get an FF16 bahamut tattoo just because of that 😂 And now Rising Tide is out, please do 'Cascade'!

Make more! Love it

I love this analysis. I think I got lost in the visual spectacles that the eikon battles are, and so I didn't really notice how much thought was behind the music. This is my second watch, now that I have listened to the soundtrack again and again, I love that I can identify the recurring melodies thanks to this video!

16:20 agreed. Picking up the prelude in the theme makes me smile while playing the game.

@23:39 piece took me by suprise how beautiful it is just like how beautiful the jungle looks, then turn even better when it transition to combat theme.

Great video. From the quality of editing and attention to detail, It must have taken you so much time and effort in making these videos. Very Appreciate someone who appreciates the final fantasy music.

Im a big ff16 fan because of ita music. This video alone worth ny subscription.

The rise of tide DLC released even more music you can play during hideout

Found the video from a reddit thread you posted it in. Really great work. It needs more views. I really appreciate it when people delve deep into soundtracks.
