“You shall bear witness to the power of post-game content!”

[@christopherchasteen4990]

Yep. Culex is not messing around this time. Along with his new glorious 3D look, he and his crystals are at PEAK power! It'll take everything you've got to win this time!

[@untitleddocument5231]

oh hey the guilty gear songs guy

[@Theguywhowanders]

Everybody gangsta until Mario rpg 4D remake shows up in 2060 💀

[@ArtNegative]

I believe my live reaction to this track in game went a little like this: "No, wait. Yoko please! Put down the strings! *Oh. My. God* " Granted, that was also partly because Culex's 3D ass was now staring me down. And i knew exactly what pain awaited me.

[@dellapj]

Did you also do the Squidward meme “OH NO HE’S HOT” reaction?

[@ArtNegative]

@@dellapj Can confirm.

[@wileecoyotegenius5955]

I loved the postgame bosses so much, they give you an actual reason to use all the most powerful equipment and items from throughout the game. Usually I find there is no use for overpowered items and in fact I don't even want to equip them 'cause they make the game too easy so it makes me wonder why I even bothered getting them to begin with. Having bosses that are tough even with all stats maxed and the best equipment in the game makes it feel a lot more rewarding to go to the effort of becoming so powerful to begin with.

[@Flatzone_Kingdom]

I need this theme in Smash Bros. 6

[@wesleyboyett2203]

And Geno and Culex in it

[@durpanda123]

we gon get a whole new generation of people asking for Geno in smash now@@wesleyboyett2203

[@YangTheAce]

Culex as a boss fight would be fire.

[@joesmoe2616]

As somebody who enjoys this game and ff 4 man this theme hits hard

[@UltimateCerberus]

But not harder than Zeromus in FF4 DS version

[@dirktrash3455]

That incredible feeling when you perfect parry Final Claw!

[@wilji1090]

The thing that surprised me was that I had never beaten Culex as a kid. So when I triggered this fight, my immediate thought was "Welp! I'm dead!" because Culex downed Mario and Bowser, two of my heaviest hitters from the word go. Basically, it became a tag team of having Peach reviving Mario and Mallow healing him. But then the part where I started going "Wait... I CAN win this?!" was when I saw the message "Culex FP is gone." The reason why that fight wasn't a total wash? Peach was rocking the Lazy Shell armor which turned CUlex's most devastating attacks into a joke.

[@TechDogeth]

Was it Culex or Culex 3D? I would feel you if it was the first one, but 3D slams hard unless you get good at perfect blocks... edit: maybe I just suck, it took me a while to get the second fight completed and many turns.

[@BKLYN48]

im saying dawg, Peach is my freaking GOAT

[@movinitlikedat45]

I went in with Mario/Peach/Geno.

[@omicronalpha8827]

Everyone gangsta until one of the crystals pulls a Bowyer

[@ianfinrir8724]

Nyeh!

[@RaceBandit]

Bowyer was *NOT* someone I expected Culex to draw inspiration from.

[@superpapermariofan]

go ddamn. this has got to be one of the best remixes. it perfectly captures the intencity and the power of this behemoth in its new 4th wall breaking full form. its an intence match that keeps you on the edge of youre seat whole through out!

[@krisdreemurr3533]

*Sound like True Final Boss.* 0:38 *Oh cr4p, sound like Pokémon.*

[@RangoTheMercenary]

What's funny is there are two more boss themes over this one in Final Fantasy IV. Four Fiends and Zeromus' theme. How one typical boss theme could go this hard, especially back then, shows Uematsu's genius.

[@senlanguna]

3D culex is True Final Boss in Super Mario RPG.

[@lfvgamerbro]

Bro can’t even type “crap” 💀

[@FigConsumer]

this did not have to go so hard 🔥🔥🔥 still impressed that they managed to make an epic theme sound even more epic, gawd damn!! by far one of my favorite tracks in this entire franchise

[@Vitrous]

Oh yes it did

[@ianfinrir8724]

Yes! They! Did!

[@untitleddocument5231]

yes they did! only the best for my boy culex

[@MaestroDrake]

Music must fit difficulty level.

[@CaptainOfTheLeviathan]

Wtf am I looking at?! A heartless?!... We're...still playing Mario...right?...

[@LegoCowManZ]

Same composer.

[@CaptainOfTheLeviathan]

@@LegoCowManZ I know, I was making a joke is all

[@ronaldood4678]

@@LegoCowManZNobuo Uematsu of the final fantasy series composed this, but the arrangement in both the original Mario rpg and the remake was done by Shimomura. Her style definitely comes through with the strings.

[@moonlitwyvern6840]

Really really good arrangement from Yoko, I'm just not sure if it beats the 4 other remixes we've gotten from FFXIV this year as well LOL Definitely love the percussion in this version though

[@MrButternutsprinkles]

Battle 2 is delicious. They're all delicious flavors. Now we can choose one to suit our tastes of the moment.

[@moonlitwyvern6840]

@@MrButternutsprinkles That is very fair.

[@ProfessorHeavy1]

​@@moonlitwyvern6840 We're getting enough modern remixes of Battle 2 to make a large scale mashup at this point. The saxophone in the FFXIV version would go so well with the strings at 1:05.

[@retokazene5085]

We have the original nes, gba, ds, 2d culex, pixel remaster, ff14, 3d culex ver. What did I miss?

[@dellapj]

Back in Baron raising a son with Rosa.

[@astrofenix9839]

Culex the best boss of kingdom hearts

[@maybepolly_]

i love how, despite it being a nobuo uematsu composition, you can SO CLEARLY hear the yoko shimomura style, especially with the strings

[@ghostofhallownest5300]

This is hard asf bruh 🔥. Yoko went crazy over this mix. I have to say it’s up there with the original both are lit asf.

I always liked that this was almost the FFI battle theme for a very FF boss.

Oooh, can you just imagine a FF4 remake like this? 🤤🤤

[@DynamoWD]

Why sounds like a blockbuster anime movie

[@NL-X]

Frikin Death Note 😂

[@scottythegreat1]

It does. However, its origins come from the Bergamasque suite by: Claude Debussy. Listen to movement 4 - Passepied This isnt the only game composition that rips off this piece of music.

[@DynamoWD]

@@scottythegreat1 I mean it makes sense, lots of Japan musicians do this kind of composition when their stories are about a world in danger were you fight deity monsters

[@squeakyfoxx]

@@scottythegreat1 "Rips off" is a strong phrase. I can here *some* resemblence, especially more in the original SNES version of this track from FF4, but it's definitely its own thing. sounds *_nothing_* like Passepied. that's like saying Valentina's theme from this same game ripps off Bach, or another baroque composer. it's called inspiration. it's not like they took the melody of Passepied note for note.

[@lightyoshiman]

me fighting culex when I'm older: why is he so much harder than when I fought him years ago (remembers I had the big koopa shell) oh

[@MaestroDrake]

One person who watched and liked this got to this battle honestly, the rest of us cheated, shame on us.

[@ellasbian]

am i the only one who feels like this version fits the 6.x bosses in ffxiv more while that theme would fit the tone of mario rpg more? i guess the somewhat jarring tonal shift works but this has a lot of that ”void”yness from the world of darkness and shadow of mhach raids

square called atlus saying culex isnt for sale

[@ghostofhallownest5300]

Nope atlus owe Square for making meta bosses like this they are the dad of this shit.

[@RaceBandit]

Culex 3D might've been hard if I had banned the Lazy Shell. Instead, my first try saw me Red Star one or two of his crystals at level 26, although since I killed Culex first, I then had to go through a _second_ 9999-HP lifebar, dragging out the fight to 59 turns. _"That is quite a long time."_
