Called out by Daisuke, the team is amused at the theory that her hair is oxidized metal, but by his statement it's just hairdye and wanting to show that she is more open to the outside world.
I mean, her hair is obviously hair. It moves like real hair and not stiff strands of copper. It's an interesting idea sure, but pretty obviously isn't the case.
I believe you’re missing her perfect run arcade mode story, talking about how she questions whether or not their relationship is actually healthy but eventually working it out.
Right? I was waiting for him to mention that and I was surprised when he didn’t. It’s nice to see the development that their relationship got throughout the games. As weird as it is to say, I kind of like them together.
10:18 from an interview done by I believe rooflemonger its stated that A.B.A willingly changed her hair color since she wanted to try fitting in more now that she's free to wander the outside world. The corrosion is just a fan speculation but I think both are good reasons, with the first one being more relevant to her being out amongst people.
First off, honoured that I was referenced by @zachstarattak7320 ; and I wanted to add some very interesting facts about Paracelsus that was revealed 20 years ago in a Japan only audio drama CD called the Night of Knives Vol.2 (you can find an upload of it and links to an English transcript on UA-cam). In the audio drama, Slayer had come across and fought ABA and Paracelsus, with Para recognizing Slayer and being embarrassed to be found in his current state. Para then begged Slayer to get him away from ABA and to wield him. But eventually, Slayer figured out several things, the most important being that Paracelsus was lying about wanting to return to the battlefield, or that he wanted to leave ABA. - Paracelsus was suppressing his most destructive abilities and even some character traits, seemingly for ABA. - Slayer knew Para could in fact take complete control over ABA’s mind at any time, and force her to kill anything and everyone around her. If he wanted her to leave him, Para could force her to do that. - Slayer noted Para’s heart was already turning “gentle and kind” even by then, due to ABA’s influence. - Slayer then figured that Para is an empathetic weapon, that’s affected by his wielder’s personality and thoughts. Because ABA saw Paracelsus as her “key to a hopeful future”, that had ‘bound’ Para to fulfil that ideal she had of him. So he was gradually changing to ‘fit’ the idea she had of him, and he became protective of her as a result too. - Feeling that the two of them do best to support each other as they emotionally developed, Slayer decided he’d check back on their progress in 20 years time. He also theorised that Paracelsus would eventually gain a human form too. And yup, it’s 20 years since then. With STRIVE, we see the emotional development Slayer predicted come through, AND he is the next DLC character. Is this coincidence, or all sort of Daisuke’s grand vision!
And this is why I actually like them together. Yes, their relationship is messy, and for the most part unhealthy in the beginning, but they acknowledge that, and they work through it in the arcade.
Here's a comment I stole from @Elementroar: In their Stage 9 expert ending, Para actually talks about his blood demon axe days as a bad thing, that he lost his sanity over his bloodlust. Mechanically, the new 'Muroha/Jealous rage' mode not draining ABA's health could be cos he actively doesn't want to drain her blood anymore. They figured out that ABA's fear of losing him was causing emotional instability that affected his shapeshifting, so he assured her he never thought about leaving her, they just need to work out their relationship to be less toxic and have boundaries.
a.b.a honestly had a massive impact on me recently, I was actually like her for a while now over someone I loved as we both kind of hurt each other in the process as I helped her, putting my life on hold and it nearly killed me mentally. and she and paracelsus helped me see the unhealthy problems my relationship was having. I don't want to give more details because a lot of bad things happened on both sides and i'm not proud, but now, I'm beginning to take the first steps to fix myself and my relationship to be healthy again. I wasn't expecting to be shown my flaws by A.B.A but I am glad it was shown to me. thank you A.B.A
Glad it helped you in a way. Chipp’s theme really helped me to keep my mental stable when I was applying for jobs in Japan, it happens to all of us in some way.
Romantic relationships are tough. Sounds like you are a self aware, intelligent, and insightful person. That’s a great position to be in, both in general and when it comes to your next relationship. The person for you will help you feel like MORE of who you really are and help you grow. Wishing you all the best!
all I'll say is, it was a one sided romance on my side, she was doing things that runned the risk of further damaging her own fragile mental health and the stress of it caused me to have an almost Schizophrenic breakdown and I had to run away, cutting contact.
i remember ppl being like 'lololol no chance in hell is ABA the new character', like thats the first thing that i ever heard from this fandom, so finding out she made it is INSANE to me
9:26 WOAH- I seen people draw fanart of Paraselsus’ human design but I didn’t even know it was a official wow!! (Obviously I never played the games before LOL- I just got into Aba recently cuz her design is cool)
Sooooooo he didn't fix her, she fixed him? He was bloodthirsty once but due to her love for him he calmed down? Lmao that strangely reminds me of Mako being the only thing to keep Ryuko calm when she went berserk on KLK.
I only within the past two days have seen stuff about Paracelsus and A.B.A’s relationship, and I kinda instantly got hooked. Partly because it’s a great portrayal of their relationship dynamic-whether you have the other endings or the one in which they talk it out that they need to work on their relationship or not- but mostly because I see myself in my own relationship in A.B.A. Don’t get me wrong, our relationship is absolutely nothing like theirs, and we’re actually really happy and good together; but I still see a lot of the same feelings of obsession with Paracelsus that I often deal with for my partner. I see similarities in how the insecurities of me and A.B.A alike take a toll on our relationships. I see a lot of the same assurance from Paracelsus that my partner gives me. It’s hard to describe, but it’s comforting to see that particular ending and see something that I feel really bad about be played back to me. I often don’t know how to view things outside of me or perceive others’ emotions towards because I panic that I’m doing everything wrong, so it gives me a feeling of peace in a way
wait, you didnt address all the alternate routes in the strive story? you only discussed the basic ending? there is a Lot more lore and background in ABAs strive arcade to do with her and Paracelsus coming to agreements on how they treat one another.
Experiencing ABA's Strive arcade mode story as my only experience of the character, I found it to be one of the most profound and heart touching stories that Strive has to offer. It's interesting to hear the opinion that it's not as satisfying when tied into the rest of her lore.
This character came across my shorts feed one day and I have been in love ever since. Not to mention that when ABA and Para are in the jealousy form in strive, when ABA runs her hand down Para's face and Para makes this weird noise/maybe says something????, it reminds me of the ENA series and that alone, that sound bite and form alone made me have a hyperfixation on a character i now want to cosplay
Watching this after Dizzy arrived (and their interactions) is so interesting as the two have a lot in common. The main one being left alone and looking for a place to belong.
Her creator being called "Paracelsus" is not a theory mind you, this is mentioned in Paracelsus' GG World entry 🤔 In Strive, Asuka mentions that "the Frasco specimen" (A.B.A) was interesting to him, and inspired him to create his own clone.
Thank you! Be sure to take a look at my other Guilty Gear (as well as other) story videos as well. Also, don't hesitate to share which Guilty Gear character story video would you like to see next before the release of the last DLC character. (possibly Slayer)
She dyed it to seem more open to the world around her, in terms of style the earlier games took place when she was younger so her hair grew out. I'm happy there is a red hair opinion for her skins, but I wish they did a younger A.B.A. skin as well.
Have you been playing as A.B.A ? Did you like her design? Which Guilty Gear character would you like to see next?
I love her design! Maybe one day... I'll play.
Bridget or Testament, they both look cute~~!!
Bedman, the goat of guilty gear
Ky Kiske
May or Bridget❤

@@Omicron9999that doesn't really mean anything its also technically wrong. Her hair moves in clumps like wire would. It's really just the art style.
@@krispingle It moves like other hair does in guilty gear strive. There, happy?

@@eyeruscat9439me too. I like this couple and I hope the next stories shows them being more open to communication and strengthening their relationship
This character has made me single handly interested in this game
Omg same! That and the art and animation
Same here, known abt GG for a few years but damn I’m really intrigued now
I don’t have a good computer rn, but when I eventually do I’m going to get this game, or if it’s on Xbox I might get it for that
Me too!
literally! like a few weeks ago i knew NOTHING abt this game

Or maybe is a bit of both, 10 years with bronce keys might have given her an idea
I aint even a guilty gear fan im just here because I am utterly obsessed with A.B.A
My exact same situation too lol
Ur so real for that

Ngl, I learned way more from this than from the video

Nice read, thanks for the information 🙂
As someone who doesn't knows anything about the game, I loved your input! Thank you!
SHE WAS 174CM TALL AND WEIGHTED ONLY 34KG??
Bruh. Why doesn't she look like Eugenia Cooney?
Maybe she was created without bones or organs lmao
Put that in American terms?
@@seraphim_son google lol
@@seraphim_son you have free access to the internet tho... Couldn't you just look it up
Surprisingly wholesome character. Loveable and visually stunning
You can't fix her 😂
@@christyma9191 well para did fix her
@@christyma9191No shit. That key already single handedly did the job for us
Their relationship made me wanna check out the game cuz who is thirsting over a big old key bro I HAD to see
Her new Song has hit me in a place I didn’t expect so beautiful and relatable

That makes sense because in the game whenever they go into jealous rage aba says " dont leave me!"now i understand why

I'm sure they'll add more interactions and story for A.B.A in future updates!

You can't fix her.
Never wanted to. She is PERFECT
Para already did… somewhat… it’s a work in progress for the both of them…
True, Paracelsus fixed her already.
I don't need to
great video. i only just wish we knew more about their dyanmic right nowwww. kinda wish that was more expanded on
Her face kinda looks like mistral from mgr with the eye bags and other general features
Wish he’d talk about the blue Paracelsus ending
She’s literally me
Amazing video🎉
Glad you think so!
If zappa be next in strive....oh boy
5:12 can anyone tell me the name of the animation here 🙏I want to see the full thing but searching "aba animation" isn't really helping 😅
Also paracelsus is not chained in strive, he just has a guitar strap
Mama mia, here we go again
I only subbed cuz of the Guilty Gear Strive Stories💯💯💯
whats the song from the backround section not the start like the actual backround song what was the song used?
the one 4 minutes in
Quicksilver (guilty gear)
Where can i find more stuff of aba in the pink skin?
I love the design of the human ver of A.B.As husband?
i loved ur zato videom. this is cool too! I love the accent!
Thank you! Be sure to take a look at my other Guilty Gear (as well as other) story videos as well. Also, don't hesitate to share which Guilty Gear character story video would you like to see next before the release of the last DLC character. (possibly Slayer)
What does A. B. A. Mean? Or that was really her name
Her name comes from the Swedish pop band ABBA
Honestly i thought the red haired ABA was a better deseign
There should be a crossower between guilty gear and metal gear
You should make a Testament video
My dumb ass:is this monculus but human like
Shocking you could spend anything more than 3 seconds on her lore
the frasco specimen,,
Bro thinks he can fix her
Frasco means jar in spanish
My waifu
Here she’s so cool me haha yeah
I've been reading her name as aba... Like the band....
CHIQUITITA TELL ME WHATS WRONG 💛💛💛😔😔😔
It is said as ABBA the band, that is what her name is based on. The announcer in game says it the same. This guy threw me saying A-Bah.
@SakariSakuranbo that’s the Japanese pronunciation my guy
A.B.A A.d.d.a.m.s
“I can fix her”
34 kg???????😊
I rather her old hair
She dyed it to seem more open to the world around her, in terms of style the earlier games took place when she was younger so her hair grew out. I'm happy there is a red hair opinion for her skins, but I wish they did a younger A.B.A. skin as well.
