Zero no Kiseki OST - Inevitable Struggle

[@-mist]

When composers put their entire heart into a track, you get bangers like this. Protecting KeA and the IBC while being outnumbered, and finally earning the respect of Grace and Cao was one of my favorite moments in Trails games. You really feel like everything is at stake. Love it

"I promise you this, Special Support Section, I'll make this the best scoop in history. Please, LIVE through this so you can see the fruits of your efforts!" Man, i nearly teared up with Grace's encouragement, and fired me up even more. That whole sequence was phenomenal beyond words

[@Callius0]

I went into Zero no Kiseki just thinking, I'll play these because I really like the series. This SSS seems weird (played Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2 first). Over the course of the game I grew to like Randy more and more, and then this song and this event at IBC made me just love these characters so much more than I thought I would.

[@AlithinoiDesmoi]

The moment this first started playing during my first playthrough of Zero, I realised something; Falcom music is truly special. What a glorious track. Words fail to describe just how much of a masterpiece this track is. It's something that you truly have to experience in-game to realise how special it is. And even after all the times the theme has been arranged, nothing even comes close to the original, just like Silver Will. This is a track that has that "legendary" status so many songs try to capture, and will go down in history as one of Falcom's finest.

[@カーロス-w1g]

"I don't think anything will come close to Silver Will or Overdosing Heavenly Bliss..." *Inevitable Struggle hook hits* "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YES"

[@nesoukkefka1741]

​@@ectjr Even then CS3 is inferior and only get good in it's last part, CS4 is pretty good tough. Honnestly I think it's pretty telling when it takes CS, 3 all games to really get me invested (altough I did like CS2 and CS3's ending) while with Zero I was invest in the story and characters almost right away (and I started the series by Cold Steel just so we are clear). Zero is I feel the best first game among the 3 arcs, it introduce the character and setting well but still has a good story and good character development that are just more well paced (not perfect mind you), compare to Cold Steel 1 and Sky 1 which are games that bored me to death and that I never want to suffer through them again, I actually wouldn't mind playing Zero again.

[@drakath5727]

If there's one thing I sorely missed from Zero while playing Azure, it was the impactful sense of desperation throughout 1:05 - 1:55. The fact that it was dumbed down and basically left completely nonexistant in the arrange really took away from those tight moments during the major bosses compared to the times it played in Zero.

[@thequincy_]

Inevitable Struggle is definitely one of the most emotional tracks in Trails- or really any piece of media I have consumed. It really drives home the *struggle* S.S.S has to go through in order to achieve the results that they strive so hard for. This track plays around three times, against Garcia, defending IBC against nearly the entire Crossbell army, and against Joachim. Each instance is incredibly powerful, each signify the significance and urgency of the situation at hand.

[@nathanlabrador7664]

It also plays in the battle against Yin on Stargazer's Tower.

I was fortunate enough to have played these already but it's a little sad that while OST videos for Trails in the Sky and Cold Steel are filled with English comments, Zero and Ao ones get no love (yet).
