This cutscene touched me more than any other scene in a game up to date. It made me realize that every little friend I made throughout the game was not for naught. Even in the hopeless trial that was presented before Ammy, her long companionship with Issun paid off when he encouraged Ammy in her time of need and even gave her newfound strength by gathering the faith of all those they met in their journey. Even when separated, Issun and Ammy's friends supported her until the very end.
i cried when ammy imagined issun on her head like he normally would be, and imagined him telling her to give off a victory howl, then she realized he wasn’t really there...that hurt 😭

Tis better to have died while creating a masterpiece without care for the financial comeback than lived while being just serviceable to a majority. A game that sold poorly yet got a 9 will have a legacy everyone will remember, the games that sold more but scored a 6 will be forgotten. That lesson clover knew and chose not to go down the Nintendo path.
@@urbiznesnunuv6938 ??? Given that loads of nintendo games don't sell that well but are critically acclaimed this feels like you're picking the wrong company as example
Only game that was almost like Okami was RDR2 but has a sad ending instead of a happy one that made everyone sad after Arthur died I even teared up too RDR2 is just as good as okami in a different way
"When one tries to master something, it ends in either success or failure. But it is in the attempt itself where you find the true value." ---Oki. This part is just so so touching and tear-inducing!
i know half of these comments are probably super old but i just wanna say okami is one of those games you never want to end and you just wanna keep having an amazing adventure with issun, but i can say okami is and will always be my favorite game.
@@peach6648 2020 gang! This year has lot of sad things behind and In the future, but every time I listen this and other Okami songs I found hope for the future
2021 gang and still going strong barely finished Okami and I can't stop crying tears of joy the ending was great and the music this game deserves a sequel man but it's been years since so I don't think they'll make another masterpiece like okami
Okami has some of the best music from any game that I've ever played. It's a shame that it didn't get the same level of popularity in the States as some other Japanese imports.
Cheer up everybody, these are nothing but tears of happiness. Now, let's join our hands. Prayer is power. Power is prayer. For it comes from our hearts. And if you believe it hard enough, then the sun will rise and shine, once again.
I love so much how Issun couldn't truly leave Ammy's side. :D Like, nah, lemme keep your memory around by showing the world just how amazing you are through ART! "I hope you didn't fall asleep up there, furball..." I cried.
Ammy, we grew to love you, to see you battered and beaten it brings tears to our eyes. Then to see Issun who had abandoned Amaterasu because he had what he wanted, come to his friends rescue like that... Good show Issun, good show. Sunrise, come forth!
Just this moment when you hear Issun's touching speech and see everyone praying it's just like "OMG Itouched THIS many people's lives and ALL these people care for Amaterasu (me)" it makes my cry every time I get this far in the game
Makes me cry every time and also makes me see how awful the world is today, and that makes me cry even more. What a cycle of crying... Such a beautiful and heart touching song. I absolutely love it.
me: no ammy no! don't lose your powers! *sniff, sob* dad: haven't you finished this game three times already? Me: BUT THE ENDING! THE ENDINNNNGGGGGG...
+Northern Lights Luck is with me, because until i found the name of the soundtrack in the extras within the game, i couldn't know about this, so i couldn't spoil me.
One of only 4 scenes in gaming that has ever made me cry. 1: This scene. 2: When Lucina tries to kill your avatar (Fire Emblem: Awakening) 3. The sacrifice ending (Fire Emblem: Awakening) 4. Kurow's Death (Okamiden)
Brings back so much memories. My BF and I took turns playing until the very end. This song gave us goosebumps, fuzzy feelings and made us cry. I’ll never forget.
This game. This game. I played this back when I was about 13 for the first time. I was mostly pushed by Chugga to play this game, and I enjoyed it the first time. But i never really came back to it. Not until 2019. I sat down, got the hd version, and it felt like I played it for the first time all over again, but with light spoilers instead of the whole game fresh in my mind. And surprisingly, I got all the collectibles off of just my memory. And this climactic final boss got me. I was in tears by the end of it. This recemented this game as one of my top 3 games of all time, easily.
Me too! I watched his Let's play on this game, and I've listened to the music for years and years. I finally got this game a few weeks ago, and I'm really having a blast! Even just running around doing side quests is fun. It was so surreal to hear Cherry Blossom Storm while I was in Kamiki after listening to it for so many years to fall asleep or while in the car or just background noise. Such a fantastic game.
This was the first and the only game that makes me cry. This song helped it a lot... No doubt Okami was... no... IS one of the best game ever exist or will exist... I'm listening the song while I write and I can't hold my tears... Thank you Clover studios... Thank you!!
I really like how this song starts off as a simple flute-harp combination, gradually swells to a full orchestral score, then goes back to the flute and harp.
Spoiler!!!! That moment in the last fight...When Ammy hears the voices of all the people she met on her journey. And when they start to believe in Shiranui again. It's the point I always break into tears. Gives me so much goosebumps. TwT
@@kyusukui2460 bro this game was my whole childhood, I think I also gave amaterasu strength because she also helped me in a way or another, by giving me good memories.
Finished the game today. Cried my own weight in tears, and loved every second of it. And this song is one of the greatest responsibles for me bawling :'D
The Graphical approach of Okami is just as perfected as it's soundtrack and playability as well as its incredibly well-written story. In my opinion Okami is one of the most breathtaking game-experiences there is as of today. Maybe this will change in the future, but few games thus far have set the standards as high as Okami. I have played through it several times, but am still driven to tears by some of its scenes. This song is one of its masterpieces, which says a lot!
10 years later this is the first game I ever played when I was 5-6 with my dad. I’ve now beaten this game over 20 times I have it on the wii ps2, ps3, and ps4. Every time I finish this game it makes me cry because it reminds me of my whole life.
Almost 15 years later and here i am, looking like an idiot for not playing this masterpiece sooner. I’ve played some good games but this just tops all of them, the ending felt like being hit by a train. This game is now my favorite game of all time. That says a lot for a 14 year old game, i miss clover but I’m glad they became platinum, i wish they would make another game with the story, structure and impact of okami but the classic platinum action. This game and studio has changed me
This song is truly moving and fits the seen it's set with perfectly. Uniting with the people of Nippon, the light cannot die as long as there is still one strong person who believes in it! Fight on, Ammy!
Shadow Dragon Comms. i now listened to it again, yes great song :) but for me the thank u version of reset still ist the best because of the great bossfight :)
My favs. I don't know what there called but. This one. (Idk if this is the song that Issun leaves you, but if it isn't then that ne is my fav. If this one is, then this one is my favorite.) And then ALL DE OTHERS
To all those I have met, have yet to meet, or didn’t make it. To those I am friends with, and to my enemies. To those who made me who I am, and those I’d rather forget. To all my heartbreaks, to my love, to my family, and to everyone else. Thank you.
Unfortunately most of this game, including the ending was spoiled for me before I got the chance to actually experience this game for myself. I still really enjoyed it though. Some frustrating, downright infuriating moments with the fishing mechanics and brushwork, but that was partially due to my sensor bar for the Wii not working right at times. But once I fixed it and got the hang of things, it for a bit easier. But regardless of how angry I got at times, I still immediately wanted to replay the game after I finished.
i swear there are some parts in this game that made me cry like when issun leaves okami and then there are parts that are uplifting i love this game! :3

I feel you. The world needs more games like Okami. It's games like this that have made me who I am today. If you want a similar game, check out Xenoblade Chronicles. It's one of those rare games that really sticks with you throughout life. Just like Okami
The part at 3:43 hits so hard, is just beautiful and makes me cry. This is not a videogame, its a masterpiece, im so happy that we alredy have a sequel announced to this masterpiece
I knew about Okami because of Marvel vs Capcom, where Amaterasu was my favorite character just because she was a wolf. Even if I knew about the existence of the game, I never played it. Until Okami HD released. I bought it for Xbox One. And I tought I was ready. I tought Okami would be like another game like Zelda, Pokémon (and I really like those games, really) in terms of experience and fun. God... I wasn't even close. I have played a lot of games, and I have enjoyed most of them. But Okami... Okami is really different. I wouldn't know if I can say that Okami if my favorite videogame, but... Damn. I really loved it. The characters, the story, the gameplay, the japanese ukiyo e and acuarela style, the music... God. I just finished the game. I really cried a at this part. Because of all the memories of the game. Because of the memories of those evening where I was playing Marvel vs Capcom with my brother. Because I finally played one of the best games in all history.
I once used this track for the ending of a three year long D&D campaign. Four players, all Superheroed up and imbued with additional power. They encountered the final boss, who at the moment of it's resurrection ripped it all away from them, it having been the source of their power from the beginning. Their mentor appears to them as time freezes, as he starts to berate them teasingly, and then tells them they don't need that power now, because they cultivated something much greater all the way along. I watched tears roll as I described -EVERYONE- they helped calling out to them to succeed, I got roars of triumph out of the Fighter, I saw the resolution on the Monk and the Wizard, not because it was just a game, but because they had done great things. And at that climax point (2:47) the mentor appealed to them "Only thing standing between you guys and them is That Fuckin Thing.. Ask yourselves right now. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT!?" I have never had emotions surge around my table quite like that before, and it added to the greatest conclusion to my DMing I've had in almost 10 years at that point. Thank you Clover, for giving me the greatest tools I never knew I needed.
this song always paint the same picture for me. a warrior who is in the edge of defeat but the hears voices both living and deceased which give him strength and help make his dream a reality
that's so sweet! my mom and brother just came home one day and were like "look what we got." i had been talking about it a lot at the time, also i constantly watched reviews and such online. i stayed up all night playing it :D
That reminds me of when my parents got Ōkami for me. I had shown a huge interest in it, as it seemed to be right up my alley(which it was). I had heard great things about the game. And then one night when my mom picked me up from my dad's house, she said she had gotten something for me, and low and behold, it was Ōkami HD. I smiled almost all the way back home(At one point I had to stop smiling bc my cheeks were hurting). And I started playing it the next day. I already had super high expectations for the game, and it still exceeded them. Now here I am, about 5 months later, on my third playthrough and unable to stfu about it.
Played this game with my niece whenever we would pick her up from school. Finally finished it today and, still, even 12 years later, this scene still makes me tear up. Though, it didn't help that I was reading out loud the text to her. Still my favorite game of all time.
My bf just started playing Okami (I gave it to him for christmas) and I told him about how this kinda starts out as just a simple flute/string piece but then it builds into an orchestra and he said that kinda related to the game and how you started off really weak but over time you got stronger and then you're an absolute BEAST!
AAAAAAGH~!!!! THE FEELS!!! So awesome how Issun helped spread the word about Amaterasu's contributions and everyone started praying and believing in her, thus giving her tremendous power! I love this game so much!
What makes this music so powerful is the slow evolution of the mood, starting with vibes of sadness and despair to end with a feeling of strength and hope. Truly an underrated game.
This game's gameplay is very similar to The Legend of Zelda franchise and the gibberish voices of the character are very reminiscent to Banjo-Kazooie. Plus, this game's music is so powerfully majestic, and in this case for this song, you all need to know that it's okay for men to cry as there's absolutely nothing necessarily wrong for men to cry, like seriously, there's absolutely no rules saying that men cannot cry.
+Khoi Nguyen Literally *EVERY* piece of music from Okami will make you cry without even playing the game. Like these for example: 1. Sorrowful Goodbye 2. Kaguya's Departure 3. Kamiki's Sorrowful Tradition 4. Cursed Shinshu Field 5. The Celestials Have fun crying :,3
Same! I wanted this game for so long for the PS2, and then I found it at an old BlockBuster store, but I didn't have the money, so my mom pitched in and bought it for me. I've beaten it three times, it's my favourite video game ever, and I can't help playing it without feeling gratitude towards my mom for helping me play something so inspiring!
im a FF fan myself and i see where your coming from. If only the big companies actually listened to real fans about issues like that. (i would really like a ff6 rmk but it would most likely lose the pasion that was so great about it)
on my first time playing through the game, when i came to the part they played this, the music was so fitting, the soft background of reset and the amazing things done by Issun was just too much, i nearly cried
Indeed. This is probably one of my favorite games of all time. I look back on it, and i can not think of anything wrong with it. Just pure, gaming bliss. It's a shame that Clover Studios went out of business.
To think Okami Ame she didnt give a damn on her status as a god just wondering around helping others and being called all kind of name and treated like a mud as she is lol and solo battling Yami until she loses all her power in the verge of death still defend things she love which is the people of the land she met , and thanks to issun help she able to recover back her power to fight Yami and ascended back to Heaven.

This is not a videogame, its a masterpiece, im so happy that we alredy have a sequel announced to this masterpiece
I knew about Okami because of Marvel vs Capcom, where Amaterasu was my favorite character just because she was a wolf.
Even if I knew about the existence of the game, I never played it.
Until Okami HD released. I bought it for Xbox One. And I tought I was ready.
I tought Okami would be like another game like Zelda, Pokémon (and I really like those games, really) in terms of experience and fun.
God... I wasn't even close.
I have played a lot of games, and I have enjoyed most of them. But Okami... Okami is really different.
I wouldn't know if I can say that Okami if my favorite videogame, but... Damn. I really loved it.
The characters, the story, the gameplay, the japanese ukiyo e and acuarela style, the music... God.
I just finished the game. I really cried a at this part. Because of all the memories of the game. Because of the memories of those evening where I was playing Marvel vs Capcom with my brother. Because I finally played one of the best games in all history.
This made me cry so hard. I love this game so much.
A tear-jerking song...
A truly great song...
A song of happiness...
This song is all of these. Truly poetic.
I once used this track for the ending of a three year long D&D campaign. Four players, all Superheroed up and imbued with additional power. They encountered the final boss, who at the moment of it's resurrection ripped it all away from them, it having been the source of their power from the beginning.
Their mentor appears to them as time freezes, as he starts to berate them teasingly, and then tells them they don't need that power now, because they cultivated something much greater all the way along.
I watched tears roll as I described -EVERYONE- they helped calling out to them to succeed, I got roars of triumph out of the Fighter, I saw the resolution on the Monk and the Wizard, not because it was just a game, but because they had done great things. And at that climax point (2:47) the mentor appealed to them "Only thing standing between you guys and them is That Fuckin Thing.. Ask yourselves right now. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT!?"
I have never had emotions surge around my table quite like that before, and it added to the greatest conclusion to my DMing I've had in almost 10 years at that point.
Thank you Clover, for giving me the greatest tools I never knew I needed.
this song is just so good It makes you cry with a smile
This is by far, the most beautiful song in this entire game. When I played it, I legit cried.
Okami, this game touches my heart.
God I LOVE THIS GAME, the essence of the traditional Japan, the mistery, the majesty, and of course THE INCREDIBLE SOUNDTRACK! :D
Thank you, now I have the option to cry whenever I want randomly Q_Q.
Used Okami as a paper topic. Thanks for the 'A' Okami!
this song always paint the same picture for me. a warrior who is in the edge of defeat but the hears voices both living and deceased which give him strength and help make his dream a reality
that's so sweet!
my mom and brother just came home one day and were like "look what we got." i had been talking about it a lot at the time, also i constantly watched reviews and such online. i stayed up all night playing it :D
That reminds me of when my parents got Ōkami for me. I had shown a huge interest in it, as it seemed to be right up my alley(which it was). I had heard great things about the game. And then one night when my mom picked me up from my dad's house, she said she had gotten something for me, and low and behold, it was Ōkami HD. I smiled almost all the way back home(At one point I had to stop smiling bc my cheeks were hurting). And I started playing it the next day.
I already had super high expectations for the game, and it still exceeded them.
Now here I am, about 5 months later, on my third playthrough and unable to stfu about it.
I’m coming back to remember this beautiful soundtrack as I await for the sequel. Imagine how epic the new soundtrack will be!!!
I remember not leaving the Kamiki Festival for 8 days because I didn't want the happiness and partying to go away... Damn it, Yami.
Played this game with my niece whenever we would pick her up from school. Finally finished it today and, still, even 12 years later, this scene still makes me tear up.
Though, it didn't help that I was reading out loud the text to her.
Still my favorite game of all time.
My bf just started playing Okami (I gave it to him for christmas) and I told him about how this kinda starts out as just a simple flute/string piece but then it builds into an orchestra and he said that kinda related to the game and how you started off really weak but over time you got stronger and then you're an absolute BEAST!
Man I love this...
I shivered when I listen to this song.
1:15
(Why am I'm crying?)
This just proves that music can sing without words.
AAAAAAGH~!!!! THE FEELS!!! So awesome how Issun helped spread the word about Amaterasu's contributions and everyone started praying and believing in her, thus giving her tremendous power! I love this game so much!
3:41 No joke, when I hear this, no matter how many times I have listened to this amazing song, I come to the brink of tears, so much emotion.
Nearly all of us, if not all of us, cried because of this song and Issun's grand speech. That much is certain
What makes this music so powerful is the slow evolution of the mood, starting with vibes of sadness and despair to end with a feeling of strength and hope. Truly an underrated game.
I've got this game for my birthday this year and I finished today. This game is an authentic experience, very beautiful in a lot of senses
dang, i feel sorry for you. i'm on my way to beating it twice- and i still love it madly. its one of those games i'll beat over and over again.
This game's gameplay is very similar to The Legend of Zelda franchise and the gibberish voices of the character are very reminiscent to Banjo-Kazooie. Plus, this game's music is so powerfully majestic, and in this case for this song, you all need to know that it's okay for men to cry as there's absolutely nothing necessarily wrong for men to cry, like seriously, there's absolutely no rules saying that men cannot cry.
Why is it that whenever I listen to this song, my eyes water? And I have never even played the game.
+Khoi Nguyen Literally *EVERY* piece of music from Okami will make you cry without even playing the game. Like these for example:
1. Sorrowful Goodbye
2. Kaguya's Departure
3. Kamiki's Sorrowful Tradition
4. Cursed Shinshu Field
5. The Celestials
Have fun crying :,3
this song has a hopeful sound! i love it thank you for posting this!
God the music
I'm gonna go play it again tmr
I can't even ;-;
O7
Thank you clover studios for going all out on the masterpiece of a game
Ah...... I have a cold right now, so I was feeling pretty down. But this cheered me up! This is a absolutely beautiful song!
Same! I wanted this game for so long for the PS2, and then I found it at an old BlockBuster store, but I didn't have the money, so my mom pitched in and bought it for me. I've beaten it three times, it's my favourite video game ever, and I can't help playing it without feeling gratitude towards my mom for helping me play something so inspiring!
I spent so much time talking to people and doing little side quests for them and it made this scene hit so hard 🥺
im a FF fan myself and i see where your coming from. If only the big companies actually listened to real fans about issues like that.
(i would really like a ff6 rmk but it would most likely lose the pasion that was so great about it)
Invigorating. What I wanna know is who in the right mind would dislike something like this? Unheard of.
So Sad I want to cry :')
i love this song so so so much ! i...it makes me cry every time
on my first time playing through the game, when i came to the part they played this, the music was so fitting, the soft background of reset and the amazing things done by Issun was just too much, i nearly cried
WE NEED A NEW OKAMI GAME ;-;
Most of the times I died in the yami boss fight was because I couldn't stop crying from the part where issun gets everyone together to pray
It's been years and this song still makes me cry
Listening to this is an awesome way to get rid of stress.
this music, along with this cutscene and what happened before= the perfect formula for tears and a heart warming tale of the Sun God Amaterasu
I...I love this so much...
Indeed. This is probably one of my favorite games of all time. I look back on it, and i can not think of anything wrong with it. Just pure, gaming bliss. It's a shame that Clover Studios went out of business.
Just beautiful. The music is just beautiful. That is one of the things that makes a great game. Not graphics. Its music, storyline, and playability.
This song is so sad yet happy at the same time. To me it’s saying even in death your journey isn’t over.
To think Okami Ame she didnt give a damn on her status as a god just wondering around helping others and being called all kind of name and treated like a mud as she is lol and solo battling Yami until she loses all her power in the verge of death still defend things she love which is the people of the land she met , and thanks to issun help she able to recover back her power to fight Yami and ascended back to Heaven.
