The symbolism in the song is also a big part. It symbolizes the fact that sunny accepts that she is dead. He forgives himself. As the new era of him starts he sees his whole life with Mari flash before his eyes. It’s a peaceful ending.
What makes me cry about listening to duet reminds me that Mari always loved Sunny, I’m a younger sibling and I can say that I don’t know my sibling yet, like how Mari and Sunny don’t really know each other, but like my sibling and I, they love each other. Sunny will play the Duet, even if it’s without a piano playing with him, even though it’s without Mari.
when i finished my first playthrough of OMORI about a month ago, I felt like shit. Not because of the game, but because of how on the comments of the OST everyone was talking about how hard it made them cry, and I didn't end up crying even once.. I felt like I was crazy or psychopathic for not breaking down over it, and I felt even worse knowing my friend, the sweetest person i've ever met, and the person who I look up to the most, cried multiple times. In the end I just ended up being happy I got the secret ending without a guide, and it felt so wrong to have not been as affected as most people. I'm planning on starting some new saves to explore some of the other ends, so we'll see if anything changes when thats done. maybe it will all hit at once. who knows.
I’m not sure what is driving you to think badly of yourself because of this, but know this: I cried during Final Duet. And guess what? I failed to cry when my very first dog died. I failed to really care that much. That was kind of where I began to hate myself, just as you are doing now. My advice for you is to not do that. Whether you struggle with empathy/sympathy or just didn’t feel attached to the game, please don’t think badly of yourself. It does more harm than good. There is nothing wrong with not getting emotional over a video game, alright?
The reason it's so sad is that the whole game was building up to the final duet. After the long emotional journey you've made through whole the game, you are hit with one of the most beautiful scenes in video games
I beat the game last night (I think it’s the best game I’ve ever played) and didn’t cry at Duet. I had already heard the song, was actually learning it on piano and had head everyone say “it’ll make you cry”. I did think it was incredibly sad and idk maybe I’ll end up crying if I think about it today. Great video!
The battle music between Omori and Sunny was always more sad, sorrowful for me than final duet. Sunny struggling for his life. While, for me, Final Duet is heartbreaking to an extent, it reminds me of a simpler time. The warmth and comfort of Mari, playing BY YOUR SIDE. By Your Side, feels more emotive to me than Final Duet. I think it’s because to me, I didn’t find the sequence of Mari being with Sunny of too much significance; wait no, it was important to me, but over time, the feeling dulled, leaving in its wake an aching emptiness that Something desired to fill. A home for flowers, the song that played during the sequence when Sunny was with Basil, when Basil’s grandmother was dying, a memento that carried on throughout the game, that carried purpose; that made me cry, hearing it for the last time before the uncertainty of the real world showed itself; after all, nearly everything before this point was either a dream or a memory of the past, or it just didn’t feel real, made it more impactful than I think it should’ve (in a good way.) but then, after listening to it many, many times, the feeling of melancholy reminiscence, of home and comfort, becomes ever so slightly less full. - I think I’m trying to say that the musical emotions depends on the context, like was said in the video, more than … Well, I really liked this video… Thanks for making it!
For some reason duet makes me cry for 30 minutes or more only when i see it at the end, after long gameplay. When i listen to duet purposely 'cause i want, it just gives me goosebumps and i feel like i want to cry but i can't. Idk man
Music have a big effect on me cause when I hear a really nice sounding music or just a banger I start crying because I hear a masterpiece and a beautiful sound that it makes me happy
it's so funny because (the title is stupid xD) should have added then some and not you as everyone- like I found it nice and cute but wouldnt make me cry. poems in the fog makes me cry instead. and I also cried on the sherlock eurus violin duet in the end of the show. tbh it was less the music but more the animations that got people. if the animations wouldn't be there and you would still just see omori's battle face people would not find it sooo touching.
Great video! Final Duet is truly a beautiful theme. Happy to see this video getting picked up by the algorithm. On a side note, is it alright if i reference parts of this video for a school project? Currently writing an essay on video game music and sound design, where Omori is one of the games i'm discussing. This video would be a great addition to my sources!
it didnt make me cry. im not joking. it was emotional sure, but im not really a person to cry over stuff like that. sorry if i sound like a jerk idk how to explain it. it did make me feel at peace though
i started playing it about a week ago and it honestly is one of the first games in years I've been emotionally invested in... it's also been the first game that I failed and came back to (i rage quitted at times out of frustration, but came back to it after a night of sleep)
Sound is one of the main human perceptions. And when music complements what we see, it gives a greater effect.
Finally, a reason to explain that im not insane by watching omori contents
true, I enjoy watching a lot of music videos tbh
The symbolism in the song is also a big part. It symbolizes the fact that sunny accepts that she is dead. He forgives himself. As the new era of him starts he sees his whole life with Mari flash before his eyes.
It’s a peaceful ending.
though he didnt really forgives himself for his unforeseen action, still he decides to continue. And thats what it all really matters in the end.
Nah tho, basil be taking all the hate for sunny. He needs a proper apologize, with the violin.
What makes me cry about listening to duet reminds me that Mari always loved Sunny, I’m a younger sibling and I can say that I don’t know my sibling yet, like how Mari and Sunny don’t really know each other, but like my sibling and I, they love each other.

OMORI (song) is the most powerful song for me personally, makes you feel very vulnerable. Despair, it’s immaculate
What makes me cry about this song is when they finish the Duet Sunny wakes ups and cries. Missing his sister more than everything. It's just sad

I didn't cry either. I think it's normal not to, but it's still normal to cry if that was sense.

interesting take man, good luck on other routes 😋
Saw this posted on r/omori nice vid 😅
Haven’t cried to a game in forever so this game really surprised me
i used duet in my videos before i played the game and then I played the game. i was so speechless
The reason it's so sad is that the whole game was building up to the final duet. After the long emotional journey you've made through whole the game, you are hit with one of the most beautiful scenes in video games
Good Morning made me cry rather than Duet because I know well I dont have the mentality to replay the game.
omori has such a good soundtrack ‼️
Now I finally have an explanation for why I start physically hurting inside when I hear final duet thank god
I beat the game last night (I think it’s the best game I’ve ever played) and didn’t cry at Duet. I had already heard the song, was actually learning it on piano and had head everyone say “it’ll make you cry”.

its genius the way the entire game builds up to DUET as the climax
For some reason duet makes me cry for 30 minutes or more only when i see it at the end, after long gameplay. When i listen to duet purposely 'cause i want, it just gives me goosebumps and i feel like i want to cry but i can't. Idk man
Ppl listening to Duet: hell yea
Hell yea
I've never played Omori before, but Duet actually made me cry. This video explains it perfectly
Underrated youtuber, keep it up. I believe you will go big at this rate!
AMAZING VID keep it up
hell, even this video made me cry
This video is so good and got me very hooked
Man I cried the whole game because of how similarly it feels! All that struggle with own mind... This game is a miracle!
Music have a big effect on me cause when I hear a really nice sounding music or just a banger I start crying because I hear a masterpiece and a beautiful sound that it makes me happy
If didn’t make me cry. I’m heartless.
This video makes me oh so proud of you, old friend.
I haven't even played the game, yet it still made me cry.
Lol I alr knew this video would boil down to motifs and minor 4 chords
Let the algorithm bless you little one.
**START COMMENTING BOYS**
thank you so much!
Because it’s nostalgia on how sunny… :)
In my eyes, ears and heart, Final Duet is the greatest song ever created.
this game tore me apart and sewed me back together
It's so sad to see beacuse they looked so happy and your forced to watch sunny and mari together for like 3 minutes 😰😰😰
it REALLY hits where it really hurts. Almost the same as gettint kicked in the balls.
Everytime I hear it, it feels like I get hit directly on front of my head and I physically get knockbacked for how emotional I get
PLEASE I WASNT EVEN 20 SECONDS IN THE VIDEO AND I STARTED CRYING
This really hit deep with final duet
This game hit me like a brick
it's so funny because (the title is stupid xD) should have added then some and not you as everyone- like I found it nice and cute but wouldnt make me cry. poems in the fog makes me cry instead. and I also cried on the sherlock eurus violin duet in the end of the show.
tbh it was less the music but more the animations that got people. if the animations wouldn't be there and you would still just see omori's battle face people would not find it sooo touching.
Finally ive done it. Not cry during duet
Great video! Final Duet is truly a beautiful theme. Happy to see this video getting picked up by the algorithm.

Sure man!
@@codagoober3276 Cheers!
Not only make me sad, this game also motivates me to play Violin.
I wished you talked about the music theory
Imma sub bcuz he cool
it didnt make me cry. im not joking. it was emotional sure, but im not really a person to cry over stuff like that. sorry if i sound like a jerk idk how to explain it. it did make me feel at peace though
I thought the Omori fandom died oh my gosh
It never dies just like Undertale
i started playing it about a week ago and it honestly is one of the first games in years I've been emotionally invested in... it's also been the first game that I failed and came back to (i rage quitted at times out of frustration, but came back to it after a night of sleep)
damn.
