    Another villain, only this time it's Babidi. Not a very threatening character, however, what he did to Vegeta used to creep me out. We know that in time, Vegeta is able to resist Babidi's curse and that he wanted to be manipulated for his own gain, but until that moment, it feels heartbreaking believing that our character who's come so far, is regressing into his former, evil self.

    BRO YOU REMADE THIS?! Dude this is THE song to define Majin buu when Goku was going over Buu's entire story from when he hatched to his final moments with the Super Spirit bomb.
    "You have to know what it's like to have your life taken against your will. It's WRONG"
    It didn't just work with Vegeta's villainous turn, it also worked with that moment. Damn impressive!

    • @GladiusThemes
      @GladiusThemes  Рік тому +12

      Yes that's right! Such great voice acting from Sean in that line you just wrote :) i'd say it's one of the darkest pieces in the Faulconer productions score. And it's so different from Frieza or Cell's themes, yet it has it's own flavor of evil.

    This was Mike Smith's track too? Oh lord I'm about to weave you another yearn...
    And you added a backing chorus to this cover you too? You! Absolute! MAD LAD!
    See I didn't mention this on your covers of The Ginyu Force theme or Frieza's Symphony, but I'll probably never get to tell Mike Smith how these three themes lived rent free in my head as a teenager. Especially when I would draw my fan comic crossovers of DBZ/Pokemon/Digimon/Sailor-Moon/Yugi-Oh/Marvel/DC/Invader Zim.
    By the time I got around to writing fan-fics involving Buu this theme would bounce around in my head. By the time I was fifteen I started writing my own original comics and novels, and briefly played with resurrecting those old fan-fic ideas as web-comics in 2008.
    Listening to this brought those old ideas back and has me considering working on them again. And they already didn't make a lick of sense with Babidi teaching his magic to a digimon who then used it to control various pokemon and digimon. I had lickatung transforming into a Machoke,(because magic I guess), and my OC helping Goku and Co. fight Buu in the mean time. It was a mess...
    I turn 35 on the 29th, which'll mean I've been writing my own original comics, novels, and short stories for 20 years.(Man I'm old,) and I'm curious to try and see if all that writing experience will enable me to tidy up some of these fan-fic plot lines.

  • @ioannisstrategos221
    @ioannisstrategos221 Рік тому +1

    Oh, this is wonderfully intense. It does just feel like a battle to resist Babidi, like if this was cast on you, this would be you spending every ounce of energy to fight it off from consuming you. Or, if you're the prince, you're just letting it take over, and this is you just feeling yourself being made to be more powerful in some sick metamorphosis.
    I like you saying that it was creepy, because Dragon Ball Z, imo, was a little too quick for me to get any sense of more primal feelings of disgust, I just wanted our heroes to win and triumph. But, when I stop and think about it, Cell, Buu, and now that I'm processing it, Babidi are gross in a way I can't really place. They don't belong, they shouldn't exist, or they're an abomination to otherwise naturally occurring phenomena. The thought of wrapping around this nebulous spore of evil within someone and yanking them around is gross in a way hard to put to words. It's like a parasitic infection, borrowing to feed upon you, but not in a literal sense, more to feed off of your potential to induct you into this dark sorcerer's grand scheme. Worse still isn't that magic is capable of doing this, or creating barriers or the numerous other feats he performs, but honestly that he CHOOSES to do this. Dabura, Yakon, Pui Pui, Spopovich, Yamu and numerous other henchment were deliberately targeted because of their unyielding negativity brings up emotions of disgust I would recognize in the thought of narcissism, or in the case of the two humans, who are undoubtably much younger than Babidi, maybe even grooming. It's gross, and I think it brings another layer of horror to the Buu Saga, helping to cut through some of the levity that Buu's reveal had. He may be a fluffy and chaotic guy, but his master is a disgusting creature well worth his eventual death.
    On a different note, could you imagine how bad your midlife crisis would have to be to WILLINGLY go back to complete evil and debauchery? Like, it's kinda sad, and I empathize with Vegeta. He's had wins, sure, like becoming the Saiyan of Legend, getting a good family, and the numerous wins in battles throughout the series, but his main rival he's never beaten, who then dies and takes his motivation away like air beneath wings, and he's left to just slowly sail down. It makes him a sore person with a few more needles than before because his main point to conquer, that of surpassing and staying somewhat steadily in front of Goku vanishes, and he's left with this nagging thought of not being number one. It feels like a case of chronic abuse in his childhood, that he HAD to be the premier, and it's still haunting the prince after decades.
    And then, when Goku returns to the land of the living, it must have been like dangling a canteen of water to a man dying of thirst in an arid hellhole, where every attempt he made to snatch that canteen, that mana of purpose, elixir of life, the antidote to his anxieties was to be pulled ever further away, leaving him still just as parched with no chance at success. He wanted to, needed to and had to fight Goku, had to beat him, and when he was denied too often, and then he sat back and saw the chance, he took it. I cannot blame that man, because, well, without delving into it, I've felt like this at times, where the thing I desperately needed evaded me, and it feels like hell watching it evade you no matter your efforts, or your desires, oh how it taunts you so. The man broke, and gave in, taking the one route that promised something other than constant disappointment, and it started his path down darkness.
    Funnily, anyone who watches that fight proper realizes that SSJ3 made his transformation worthless, and I'd like to believe that, in his final sacrifice and watching from The Other World, he finally had to make peace that, instead of being a second best, he was never a second best at all. He was the Prince of All Saiyans, who had survived and triumphed this far, only to be conquered by his anxieties, his fears and his traumas, and he succumbed to it. That in his break in his pride, he saw, instead, not what he should be, but rather, what he should do. That he should save the universe, and attone for his grave missteps, and once he was presented the opportunity, he took it. I think this change in him really allows him to break from his desire for evil entirely, because instead of gunning for the top, he desires fulfillment in his loved ones, his continued improvement, and a friendly rivalry in Goku.
    My take, at least, and no doubt through the lens of my own life experiences and views, but I'd like to believe that the Prince finally was able to break through whatever convinced him he had to be evil, like some core thoughts, and make him choose the path of good, even if he is far more gruff and aggressive than his compatriots.

    • @GladiusThemes
      @GladiusThemes  Рік тому +1

      I said to someone recently that Vegeta’s death and rebirth was like a cleansing of his soul, his second, second chance, failing in death, but now with an opportunity to succeed in life. So this whole arc for him of his repressed darkness coming forth and manifesting in his crisis and literally in Buu, just adds more weight to his eventual resurrection; he had experienced it before after being killed by frieza, but instead of coming back not having changed much, now he comes back with the chance to be good, transformed. You’re very poetic Ioannis!!Do you write, creatively?

    • @ioannisstrategos221
      @ioannisstrategos221 Рік тому

      That cleansing is succinct to say the least, it gave him a new engine that drove him through the Cell Saga with a completely different aura, and so I have to agree with you there, he really did come back a man with a cleaner soul and more full purpose. He really subverts, in my opinion, what most deaths in Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z appear to be, for the most part, where our heroes come back unchanged, how villains come back with even more hatred and rage, and how the people of the world, often slaughtered by the evil opposition, counterpart to our champions, come back with no care of how or why they died, nor any respect to the fact that they were even absent at all.
      Vegeta, in maintaining his prominence and separation from the rest of the entire show, is the only one who dies and returns a different man every time. A wonderful showing to be certain, and in my opinion, one of the strongest reasons he is as liked in the show as he is.
      I do indeed write creatively, but most of my stuff isn't really worth the paper it's written on or the data it consumes. But I write because it takes the ideas that swirl endlessly in my head and puts it down somewhere I can maintain it and keep my sanity, a best of both worlds. Because of it's general quality, given that it's at best, ridiculously amateurish, and at worst, is just hot garbage, I just figure I have to keep writing and getting it to improve incrementally. I'm not great now, nor do I think I will be a great writer, but just trying to get a little better can't hurt, to say the least.

    This track is another one of those super underrated ones from the American OST.

Both had some highlights but man the disrespect I’ve seen for some of these stand out tracks frustrates me.
