Best of Megaten Battle Themes

First of all I just want to say thank you guys for 200 subs and that we're almost reaching 300 already. I couldn't be more grateful. This video is just my personal numbered list of my favorite Megaten battle themes and also a compilation of some of the best Megaten battle themes in the series. I'll be back to uploading some time around after New Years so I wish you guys a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays.
THIS IS VERY MUCH PERSONAL PREFERENCE. I WAS UNABLE TO PLACE EVERY SONG THAT I ENJOY ONTO THIS LIST. May do an unranked megamix in the future.

honestly one of the major selling points of SMT for me was the soundtracks. i have rarely ever seen such love put into the st of anything else, even though music is an important component in creating games and contributes HUGELY to the atmosphere of the games. its always just an afterthought? not for these games, though, and i love that.

[@memesandgasoline]

Another game series with a good soubdtrack is the Drakengard/NieR series. It's not everyone's cup of tea though, but most people who've played them have liked the soundtrack, if you were looking for other series with goid music. Totally agree with you though, SMT as a whole has amazing music.

[@deadrottenbird]

@@memesandgasoline nier wins a ost award at the game awards like every year at this point bruh lmao. I'm pretty sure it's most people's cup of tea

[@ChimericWhite]

If you are cool with metal and rock, another two series with huge love towards the soundtracks are BlazBlue and Guilty Gear. I like BlazBlue's more overall due to the more prominent focus on the orchestral instrumentation blending very well with the already metal focus. Personally, I can't stand the remix songs over the original versions when it comes to BlazBlue. To each their own though. Also, BlazBlue has a crazy story for a fighting game. Anime as all hell, it even has several manga adaptations, manga tie-ins, and light novel tie-ins as well, most of those which greatly expand upon the lore of the Dark War preceding the events of the main story.

Strange Journey soundtrack is not necessarily better but on a whole theatrical level!

[@DetectiveKuzunoha]

Very true. It’s not something I’d listen to with other Megaten songs but on its own it’s fantastic. Just very different from the rest of the series. I felt like it had to make the list though cause it’s just that good

[@DrummerDucky]

@@DetectiveKuzunoha The main issue why the SJ soundtrack is that every track is repeated way too often; Devil Survivor games also have this issue on a lesser level (worst part of this issue is that the least enjoyable BGMs tend to be the one that you hear over and over; let's call this the Chrono Cross Syndrome).

the synths in the SMTIV soundtrack are so tasty

[@mrnoob-333]

you have good taste of art

[@drowzee6076]

normal battle town is the best nocturne song imo. Probably my favorite battle theme in all of megaten

暗黒ヤング伝説

[@bromanultra6364]

GODDAMN bloody destiny is wild

[@IosLocarth]

Surprised you didn't include the VR battle theme from SMT4. It's one of the best songs in the game

[@Gontiify]

I can't believe this list doesn't include "Awakening Legend" and "Deadline" Thats sad

[@TheSergio1021]

Oooo, I like Battle For Survival - DDS 2 I really dig that one

[@gi-zero07]

BATTLE FOR SURVIVAL.

[@BorsPepsi]

Oh god hearing the Lucifer boss theme in SMT Nocturne gave me PTSD.

[@cybelleeee1467]

HOLY SHIT THE AUDIO QUALITY IS SO GOOD HOW DID YOU GET IT

This video was released on my birthday

[@peachiepao942]

I work from home and put on this video thinking it would boost my productivity, but all it's doing is making me want to play SMT games lol

[@Mikey___]

I'd love an updated best of compilation including some of the SMT V tracks (especially the Shiva fight)

[@mrnoob-333]

1:47:56 why this one soo good

[@richanddarksbane1439]

Where do you find such gorgeous pictures?

[@DetectiveKuzunoha]

They're all official art for the games. Just look for art by Kazuma Kaneko, Masayuki Doi , and Shigenori Soejima

[@narindersingh9802]

keeping Battle B2 out of top 10 is a sin.

[@enzito_sdf6978]

good list. strange journey should be higher imo tho, also the p1 psx tracks are absolutely brilliant, iirc it's one of the last osts with hidehito aoki before he died. he did the final boss theme, transitory butterfly, awesome stuff.

[@jessevance148]

I agree with most of this list, but not adding the Vs Isabeau theme is criminal.

[@MadameMimic]

Divine Powers at 50th has me shook, that would be in my top 10 for sure. Eh, to each their own.

[@snailthelostcow63]

@Weston Meyer Or strange journey in general. But well, each to their own

[@PhoenixDecim]

I feel like they went with 7/8 for Lucifer's theme because the name has 7 letters lol
