Mega Man ZX OST - T05: Green Grass Gradation (Area A - Forest)

[@GlennMagusHarvey]

Best starting area music EVER. So bright and full of energy. It sounded so fitting for the birth of a new hero (or heroine, as I prefer playing Aile, because she's just so darn awesome).

[@NecoArc1782]

im 11 years late but Departure (megaman Zero 2) > Green Grass Gradation (ZX)

[@noaht2005]

@@NecoArc1782 I was going to say that. Both are amazing though

[@Novice_tactician]

@@NecoArc1782 both gives different vibes to me. Departure feels like a legendary hero returned into action after long hiatus. Green grass gradation feels like the energetic born of a rookie hero

[@Shekillsxeno.]

@@NecoArc1782 nah

[@youngkappakhan]

@@NecoArc1782 agreed, i also like esperanto in zero 4 better but all of the themes in question fuck hard

[@abraveastronaut]

Ah, yes, Mega Man ZX, the game that dares to answer the question: what if Mega Man was a magical girl?

[@ShadowS.R.]

Nah, that's Megaman Battle Network (and the anime counterpart)

[@abraveastronaut]

If you'd said Star Force I'd understand, but Battle Network? Not really seeing the magical girl connection there. It's more analogous to a Pokémon-type series. (Either way, ZX is a better match on the grounds that it has a playable character who is actually, you know, a girl.)

[@ShadowS.R.]

abraveastronaut I did forget about Star Force. XD But the reason why I'm saying that is more because of the anime (Cross-Fusion more precisely) and the Double Soul/Cross Soul.

[@bezoticallyyours83]

ROFL! That's terrible! But true.

[@moose7145]

Lol I never realized this. My mind has been enlarged by this one

[@WildManToons]

Well cyber elf X isn't in the final smash either but I do wish model x was in it as well

[@tokyobassist]

No offense but ZX fans are an even lesser minority than Legends fans and that's saying a lot.

[@quillion3rdoption]

tokyobassist But the worst part is that they had _every_ Blue Bomber from the franchise join Mega Man in his Final Smash. With the GLARING exception of Vent/Aile! There was absolutely NO REASON to exclude one of the franchise's blue guys in something that was supposed to represent the whole franchise.

[@D0ntTaseM3Br0]

Best song in the fucking game. This game really tells you that Zero really did unite Reploids and Human's together... giving his brother... his best friend his dream come true... peace between the two and unity. Something X fought so hard for and was so conflicted. And now X and Zero live on as biomedals probably not knowing who they were in the past obviously. But their sense of justice is still with them.

[@javierdejesusahumadareyes3422]

I hadn't thought about they not remember who they were in the past

[@kratosorokai1546]

the best thing is both are shining examples of justice x is it in its purest form hence why he is so strong and zero is someone who was evil but later became good and they both came to this feat by themselves

I can't get over how much Vent and Aile just look like siblings minding their business here. It'd been great if the story incorporated both of them.

Perfect song for a new adventure. A new adventure begins!

[@joseusainternet]

I've never finished this game cause of the difficulty, but I'm planning on giving it another chance JUST for the music.

[@KoreeluStromboli]

Good.

[@PrimeGamator]

If you have been playing on Hard i also suggest that you lower the difficulty. I've won the game on Easy no problem but i couldn't beat the lava stage on Hard :/

[@joseusainternet]

I've been playing on Normal. But I'm stuck at the last level cause I'm lazy. Still an awesome game.

[@Aberrant17]

It gets easier once you get access to the Model HX transformation. The hover and air dash capabilities go a long way when you're platforming or dodging. If you're still having trouble, try getting a hold of the E-Tank and Sub Tanks. All these make the game far more forgiving.

[@bezoticallyyours83]

Jed Gonzalez Yeah! Once I get Harpuia's, I almost never bother with Fairy or Fefnir's.

[@yaboikerbe9696]

Tfw they brought back this stage in Rockman X Dive but they used Wood Man's theme for it instead of this theme. We were robbed.

Really strange thing to note that Mega Man ZX has two separate versions of Green Grass Gradation. This is the version that plays in game for the First Mega Merge Cutscene as well as for Area A. The other version appears on the game's OST.

[@LoyaLZX]

I don't understand why people say the concept of Megamerge/ROCK On is ridiculous or lame. When that concept is a homage to Classic Mega Man. Rock is still a normal robot assistant that can turn into Mega Man. Vent/Alie are cyborgs, humans with mechanical parts that can be Megaman Model X. They do the same thing, it's just different eras.

[@sylvyboi]

While I agree that ppl shouldn't bash that concept like they do, Vent and Aile aren't cyborgs, they're common humans who were chosen by the biometal.

[@lhommemystere3938]

[@mohdadeeb1829]

I like ZX because it has more experimentation with new characters. Proto Man was first sentient Robot. Mega Man was the first *successful* Sentient ever created. Bass was the most advanced Robot Ever created by Wily upto that point. X and Zero (IDK who is older) were the first Robots who can think like Humans. And they were also the first to stop Sigma ans Weil. Axl was the first Reploid who can shape shift. However, Vent and Aile are basically no one characters.
