Also, they both summon clones of themselves during the fight, which Honey B. Lovely and the Brute Bomber don't do. Also, they both have an arena made up of a 4x4 grid, and will shatter sections of that grid during the fight.
this shows the similarities and differences between the sisters. Eutrope taught Yanna how to survive, hence they have the same melody. But the genre of both songs are quite different, played by mostly different instruments. Eutrope is metal, very guitar heavy. But in Yanna's theme, part of the chorus melody is still guitar, and there are still guitar backing behind occasionally. Also the Yanna melody is played mostly with violin, Eutrope melody is sang. This shows Eutrope's character is way stronger and more developed, and the lyrics show how desperate and selfish she is. (Yanna pointed this out)
"Ahem. Please bear with us while we repair the ring." The way he says it so nonchalantly. Like he had to step away from the mic and remind himself "it's ok, it's fixable."
0:55 This hit so much harder after 4th floor She's walking the same path as her sister and don't even know she's doomed if she keep using her power The music is pretty cheerful but the violin make it feel weardly melancholic, and with this theme having the same motif from 4th floor's theme, it secretly tell us a lot about her destiny if we don't step up in arcadion
Also about her feeling inadequate and in the shadow of her stronger and more successful older sister. Which I think many younger siblings can relate to.
ah yes discovering a plot about fighters being tricked into abusing their bodies until they enter psychosis who are then shuffled into a private ward deprived of the only thing that could heal them... very fun.
@XelnasTV Except it can't heal them. They've basically revealed that they need especially dense souls, which, unless someone is rejoined, I doubt they'll have in spades.
so that tank buster "biscuit maker" apparently is a cat behavior when they're pushing their paws in and out in a furniture or anything soft like kneading dough. in savage, its a tank swap mechanic cuz she makes the first tank "soft" enough for her to kill you with her second attack. Genius

I just noticed that the violin at 0:54 is the melody from M4’s theme “Climbed every mountain, made it to the too, I had it all or so I thought. Traded tomorrow for a lie and found the price too high”
I love how infectiously upbeat this is, it really gets you in the mood for the raid. Also really cute that, as well as the chanting, you can hear the crowd clapping along to the beat in the quieter section just before the loop :)
When we saw in the LL it would be a contest with audience I said to my friends we better get the audience cheering like Sw/Sh!! Spoken did NOT disappoint!
i absolutely love the dawntrail normal raids ♡ memet supports us, comments everything we do on the stage for example if you fall off the map, the whole show plus the vocals are sooo incredible ♡
This song takes me for a ride Starts off with SF6 Mr. Top player vibes Then got the Persona 5 synths going Then got the Arms Vocals Finally the Xenoblade Violin comes in and it all comes together. 😮 Such a good song.
Once again Uvi comes to save the day! Sorry can't watch the video cause I don't played dawntrail yet. But I'll gladly listen to it :P Anyway thank you vermuch for your hard work Uvi!
Queen B was a songstress. I’m really hoping we get an Otherworld cover at some point. They could be saving X for something else. But Solution 9 gives off so many Zanarkand vibes, I’d be disappointed if we don’t get a Jecht moment.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought of ARMS and Persona with this song! Arcadion is giving me high hopes for the rest of the fights this raid series will have! Such strong boss themes!
Out of all of the DT raid themes, this is the one that has grown on me the most; I have always really liked M2 and M4, and M3 is fine, but this one I daresay is right up there with the other two...heck I may actually like it more than M4. If "Smile" is the wrong way to approach how to do an upbeat theme for XIV, this is definitely the right way.
Feasibly this could have been the track for all of the Light-Heavyweight Division minus M4, but of course Soken is cracked out of his mind and gave every single raid tier a unique theme.
I can only hope it continues. It makes each fight way more memorable and makes the characters distinct. And I say that as someone who loved Scream and The Tireless One.
I guarantee you, soken wanted a song with crowd participation. Next time they play and this song comes, the audience will know what to do. Calling it right now. Remember this comment.
We got a glimpse of this in the live letter and it's already pretty different from what we have usually. I think this is Soken himself or maybe Imamura?
These two songs are remixes/arrangements of one another. Makes sense, given this whole starting plot is about the sisters. The lobby/gym theme is also another arrangement 😊
A good starting theme for the raid series, WoL walking in like "I killed your king and your queen, now I've come for your pro-wrestling federation"
Every time an Alexandrian citizen went "thank you for freeing us from Zoraal Ja's tyranny! also, we're currently mourning Sphene who died under mysterious circumstances!" I imagined my WoL just sweating nervously.

And they’ll be like “wait she as nuts too?!”

oh and falling off the edge lmao

True but pretty much every raid set has a soft theme and a main theme, see the last one, with One amongst the Weary and Athena the Tireless One
The cheering made this song 1000x times better

After listening to this song for countless hours doing M1S, I can say that I appreciate them giving us such a catchy tune.

I'm loving this
I only just noticed, but this song has the same base melody as the song for M4. Once again, they knock it out of the park.
Because they're sisters, lmao.
Love the chanting.
To me, the violin feels like how the tournament being held in honor of the late Queen, like a moment of silence at the opening ceremony.
The violin is just straight out of any Falcom games trails series in mostly 😂😂😂
Ys is super heavy on violins too, but I get your meaning! Great raid tier this go around!
It does, for me itsnfor her sister.
This what I was thinking 😂@@john_7000
The strings are giving Persona 5
The Primals really released a mini-album that came with a bonus raid content. 4 different themes for 4 different raid bosses? Damn!
You can hear the leitmotif from M4 in it as well, so fitting since they're sisters. Love it!
I just noticed that the violin at 0:54 is the melody from M4’s theme “Climbed every mountain, made it to the too, I had it all or so I thought. Traded tomorrow for a lie and found the price too high”
Same theme in the green room too. It's pretty much the cat sisters' theme
This whole song and M4's theme are pretty much the same thing. Just played differently.

This track feels like it's waiting on a vocal reprise later in the series when we have a rematch for some reason.
i'm fully expecting the m12 theme to be a suped up reprise
M4 is the vocal version of this track!
This sounds like something straight out of Bayonetta. And that's quite the compliment. This SLAPS!
I'm going to do these raids forever just for fun
Whoever put ARMS music in my Final Fantasy, I LOVE YOU!!!
It's amazing how music can instantly set the mood

They're just letting the music team cook and it's paying off.. We got Jazz, Wild Arms, SMT in Everkeep, and now Persona
Havnt realized until now that this song shares a good part of its melody with floor 4

Only downside is we gotta wait so friggen long for these songs to hit spotify

The strings near the start definitely make me think of Let Me Blow You a Kiss
Writing ‘Nyan’ in your inventory was inspired
Besides the song, I honestly commend anyone that manages to raid with the party effects on, I'm getting confused even by just watching the video
I used to do it but then i turned it off for savage because my static couldnt tell what was happening in my recordings and i havent gone back
I had to turn it off when I started doing the 24 man raids. Everything was completely unreadable. Haven't gone back since.
Gives me the Dynamax fights in Pokemon vibes and I'm here for it

Arms
Pokémon Sword and Shield
Oh... Oh... the start of this song is just like the start of the 4th song
ARMS MY BELOVED WE MISS YOU

As soon as I dropped into this fight and the chanting kicked on I audibly went "oh he'll yea" and knew these raids were gonna slap.
Still love how the energy and sound of this theme perfectly exudes "The Red Hot Rookie". Like you know they're new, but they're nothing to sneeze at.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought of ARMS and Persona with this song! Arcadion is giving me high hopes for the rest of the fights this raid series will have! Such strong boss themes!
thank god i wasnt the only one who got in and was like "what is this, persona?"
Anyone else getting Bloody Roar vibes from the bosses this time around?
I mean Bloody Roars' whole premise is people turning into animals, so it makes sense.
I love that A1 and A4 themes are the same song but with different feelings
ngl, this raid ost all feels like something out of Persona and as a diehard fan of Persona I enjoy that!
This song gives me so many Shinsuke Nakamura vibes, great theme
This feels like if the Persona 5 soundtrack and ARMS soundtrack had a baby. I'm here for this!
Out of all of the DT raid themes, this is the one that has grown on me the most; I have always really liked M2 and M4, and M3 is fine, but this one I daresay is right up there with the other two...heck I may actually like it more than M4. If "Smile" is the wrong way to approach how to do an upbeat theme for XIV, this is definitely the right way.

Feasibly this could have been the track for all of the Light-Heavyweight Division minus M4, but of course Soken is cracked out of his mind and gave every single raid tier a unique theme.
they got to give that WWE feeling after all with each wrestler having their own theme and intro.
I can only hope it continues. It makes each fight way more memorable and makes the characters distinct. And I say that as someone who loved Scream and The Tireless One.
Does this not sound like Pokemon Sword and Shield during the gym fights to anyone else? With the crowd chiming in with the theme? I love it! :D
The crowd singing in time with the music reminds me of the main theme of ARMS.
As for the fight, it’s more fun than I figured it would be.
What in the Pokemon Sword and Shield is this Elite 4 Theme
They were an Elite Four, alright
It wasn't an Elite Four...the Pokémon League in Sword and Sheild was a Tournament Arc.
I guarantee you, soken wanted a song with crowd participation. Next time they play and this song comes, the audience will know what to do.
Calling it right now. Remember this comment.
Considering the cheers in the audience are recorded from Fanfest, probably.
Love the fact that you can hear the fourth song in this.

I guess you could say the kitten gloves are OFF!
"Looking good there, WoL"
wait. around 2:50, that's just the "to me" part of m4's theme isn't it? that's neat
