Hey, lore fiends! This one was tougher than I was expecting it to be. Let me know what I missed, or what you think of the lore of Bayonetta 1. BUT! Here's the problem: Bayonetta 2 is a Nintendo exclusive. I do not have any Nintendo consoles (I only have a PC), nor do I have a budget to purchase one right now. I WILL play Bayonetta 2 someday, so this video had to be done WITHOUT knowledge of what occurs in that game. Please try to make comments as SPOILER FREE as possible, as spoilers/foreshadowing really ruin the magic of these blind playthroughs.
Also, as I generally make a point of not commenting on gameplay mechanics or character critiques, I wanna say it here: I adore and appreciate Bayonetta as a character. I absolutely love her strength, her attitude, her sass, and her unapologetic sexuality. Making this video came at a very rough time for me, and it was good for my soul to make this video. I very much look forward to returning to this universe one day.
PEACE!
-Tip
I think a great message is in these games about how small acts of kindness can change us but also how we can become our own role models true strength comes from within
I mean... with the reveal of Bayonetta 3 as potentially another Nintendo Exclusive, *possibly not*, Bayonetta 2 is still an informative game that while it doesn't expand on Bayonetta's plotholes, it does expand on the aftermath of Bayonetta.
@@Devilcakes I’m pretty sure Bayo3 is also funded by Nintendo. Since Bayo appeared in Smash and Bayo2 was exclusive, Platinum claiming “if you want this somewhere else ask Nintendo, while you do that ask for Zelda on PS4”, I see Bayo as a Nintendo IP.
HNG. Bayonetta2 is kinda important for understanding Bayonetta. Must. Not. Spoil.
@@Cruznick06 Kind Of. While Bayonetta fleshes out the clans within its lore, Bayonetta 2 fleshes out the environment those clans take place in, at least from what I understand from Luka's notes.
Religious pastor father fights stripper daughter to the death on top of the Empire State Building . This is how someone described this game to me. I enjoyed this game so much!
👌
He’s not wrong, that’s as good a summary as this video.
I mean...he's not wrong.
Lmao that funny
i'm dead 😂
"wouldn't that cause a time paradox?" Well now that Bayo3 is officially announced soon, guess we'll find out now, won't we? hahaha xD
Holy shit, you're right!
ahh yes this aged like fine whine
Talk about forshadowing.
Bayo 2 already introduced the Bootstrap paradox.
@@FromBeyondTheGrave1 Only in the case of Loptr + Balder, not the impact of young Cereza being sent back from the future by her present self.
I just gotta love a few things about the lipstick.
1: Bayonetta's pistols are perfectly gauged to accept the lipstick tube as a shell.
2: The lipstick is strong enough to not get visible rifling striations in it as well as punch into a person's skull.
3: It's so heat resistant that being fired out of a gun doesn't melt it, like, at all.
Imagine the business that can create lipstick of this quality and density and how much a tube of it will REALLY cost.
Spoiler alert:
That same lipstick was of her mother, so it's sure to assume it was created using supernatural materials, explaining its durability
Maybe the lipstick was never lipstick. Maybe it was a comoflauged bullet all along.
@@UmbraWitch612 no it definitely was lipstick it was Rosa’s Lipstick 💄, you have to remember their witches and very cunning ones at that as much as they would love to shop for certain things I’m sure they have more then enough knowledge to make their own products without wary or confusion
@lyzder7298 it was. The lipstick enhances Bayo's magic, I think.
It's so hard to imagine that Bayonetta was once a fearful little girl who lost the will to fight. Ever since the start of the game, she's always appeared so strong, confident, and sassy that I was always confused when Jeanne said "the fear is still not gone from your eyes". Bayonetta never appeared to fear anything. I wish we'll be able to see a snippet of Cereza's fears in the third game just to understand what she actually went through as a child.
I think they just announced a top-down spinoff where you play as kid Cereza.
@@Visuwyg I saw! This comment was made before the release of Bayo 3
*Imagine having Bayonetta as a mother.*
Sakamoto,Joker & Kirby: ...
He looks like he *should* of been her kid.
Genderblend Joker be like -
My own Headcanon. This is true. Even if it would raise so many questions. Like. Who would be Joker's father? What badass dude got to hook up with Batonette? Lol
@@Qardo probably Luka due to the grappling hook
@@Qardo Sakamoto from the anime. On god look it up youll understand what i mean.
these comments! no!...please!...stop!
27:13 There is an extremely tiny detail about the angel Bayonetta that I'm pretty sure 99% of players did not notice.
*She* *does* *not* *have* *a* *beauty* *mark* because beauty marks are a mark of a witch!
Omg I really never noticed. I love that!
When I was younger I had a beauty mark in my lips if I knew about this I would 100% call myself a witch
That battle with Jubileus and Bayonetta was one of the most epic final battles I've played through, it was on the same level as the fights in Asura's Wrath, another game I wholeheartedly loved.
Oh hello again person who may or may not be the same as the other person from all the other videos that I have and haven't seen 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾
How the hell does my comment get like single digit likes but yours gets 90+ commenters annoy me so much-
I blame you for covid
How are you everywhere on UA-cam?
@@MB-te9xw because he's an annoying little pest that didn't get exterminated.
I had a beautiful little moment around 14:53 where I said out loud "how much more complicated does this need to get?" right before you finished with "... things must become MORE complicated."
🤣 The lore must go DEEPER!
Fun Fact: The Spider Demon that Bayonetta summons is actually the same one from the first Devil May Cry game.
Also Antonio Redgrave is also a reference to Dante's (Main character of DMC) former alias when he lived in the city of Redgrave, Tony Redgrave.
Doesn't bayonetta also mention a witch with Dantes mothers name?
I thought that spider looked familiar!!!!
Yep and apparently if I’m correct madam butterfly is sparda’s sister
Enzo is also mentioned in the manual for the first DMC. He was an informant for Dante, same as Bayo
@@rawrdino7046 yes the team.behind bayonetta have kind of stated that dmc are in the universe or dimension or something like that but I dount there will ever be a collab
Funny how bayonetta's hair in the third game looks like little ceraza
They are the same entity, after all.
This is the best explanation I've seen so far. It lays everything out in order leaving no question of how it all connects. This is a great video!
Thank you so much!
This definitely helps support the Alternate Timeline Cereza in Bayonetta 3 theory.
Still blown away from that trailer!! =w=
Just remember (spoiler alert for Bayo 2) the eyes of the world are gone and Loki warned that the world could be destroyed because of it. Even in 1, Rodin warned Heaven and Hell are gonna come at each other’s throats.

@@happythoughts3170 we see a snippet at the end where Loki is supposedly reborn, so I'm pretty sure the world didn't end :D
Outside the lore. A fun fact I learned and hope I am remembering correctly: Most of the main cast of the game wear glasses. All as a big middle finger to people who claimed glasses aren't cool and shouldn't do it. Well, proved them wrong. Glasses are cool and sexy.
Fun fact on top. The devs had to fight with the publisher to let Bayo keep her glasses.
Fun fact²: the glasses thing came to be after Bayonetta was designed and they wanted to know what she'd look like with glasses just cause and they loved it. They integrated them ever since
This was a great video, at times I felt like I was sipping tea and listening to Bayonetta herself tell her tale😂
This was obviously done with love, thanks for doing this!
Thank you for checking it out!
@@TiptoeTheTank
your voice is soothing like a perfectly steeped cup of Tea
When your dad expects you to raise yourself.
🤣 your comment is criminally underrated, have a like which I don't do often.
There's one minor note I wanted to add, the red gem that was in Bayonetta's Umbra Watch has no relation to The Eyes of the World: the gem is just a barrier/sealing stone. The Eyes don't exist as objects, they exist as powers inherited by members of the Sages and Witches. The Eyes choose who to inhabit based upon the candidate's power and their ability/potential to affect history. The Eyes basically want to be in the hands of the people who will witness the greatest amount of key events in history, whether these individuals also cause these events is irrelevant all that matters is that they will be there to witness them.
Cool, I thought it was stupid at first that for no real reason, she was born to wield something that was never to be used and sealed away, but this explanation actually pulls the entire lore together for me. The fact that it's something that can't really be controlled or kept safe and has a mind of its own actually makes more sense. Honestly, I was about to drop it at the start because the very first thing they tell you she was born for seemed like an asspull to me.
This is great! But you really need to have played Bayonetta 2 to explain a lot of the lore in Bayonetta 1. Those games are so interconnected.
she doesnt have a nintendo console since bayo 2 is a nintendo exclusive
No, to be precise, B2 is only on the WIIU
@@lorgariiix and switch too.
@@lorgariiix also, watching online gameplays/buying the game and emulating it is a thing nowadays.
I know the lore is supposedly just a set piece for the action.
But this game helped me work out some big issues I had during my Catholic Highschool years.
Haha thar can certainly be doozie! Are ya out of that shit now? 😅
This was VERY well done!!! Info, research, and the sass & tea 🍵 were all on point. I love it! This is, without a doubt, THE BEST Bayonetta Lore Exposition I’ve ever seen on UA-cam.
Thank you so much for those kind words!
Historians will say they were just really good friends
Can't say I ever got into Bayonetta, but my god the game seems crazy, and way better than I would have thought.
I'm telling you friend Bayonetta is a trip.
Man i remember seeing my uncle playing these types of games when i was a kid an i though they were so fucking cool 🤙🏾 Bayonetta, Devil may cry, Resident Evils all of em! Final Fantasy! I play as many as i can get now! 😅✌🏾 So glad my uncle was gamer back then. You should take a sniff at these games n shit. There is much to be appreciated.
I love that brief intermission at 12:43 especially with all the Bayonetta Voice Clips.
The way you explained the lore of Bayonetta is both informative and entertaining which is not easy to pull off. Well you mentioned the shift in timeline and now we see our Cereza all grown up in the latest trailer, I just can't wait for Bayonetta 3 to come out. Thank you for making this video.
A few errors:
1) The gem was a red herring, it is not the left eye at all. It has no significant purpose other than protecting Cereza. It is not the left eye and even Sapientia called it a worthless rock. Many speculate that the gem sealed Bayonetta away and Jeanne was able to convince the angels that she died to a blade and vanished. The gem is also powerful enough to break Jeanne’s brainwashing but its merely an Umbran jewel/relic.
2) Balder was not shot with a bullet. He was shot with Rosa’s/Bayonetta’s lipstick. Why? I have no clue. Makes no sense to me lol.
3) One crucial detail… Yes, the courage of Cereza is vital as it plays a role in awakening the left eye in Bayonetta’s timeline. So bringing her back in time when she is mentally strong will allow her to fight off the angels and prevent the resurrection without being sealed away. HOWEVER, you left out that the sealing ritual was stopped due to Cereza’s umbran watch. Because of the watch blocking the blade, Jeanne knew that Bayonetta was prepared to fight back.
Other than that, VERY GOOD VIDEO!!! I subscribed and I hope you get the chance to play Bayo 2/3.
23:50 that whole cutscene of Bayonetta and her past self was so cute and hilarious.
I've always said Bayonetta doesn't have a bad story, it just has bad -conveyance-. Once you understand what's going on, it makes sense despite being so crazy. So thanks for this video proving that!
Yep, you could make a great movie out of this.
That Patreon ad was genius! haha 😂 *chefs kiss*
😉
ikr i was laughing to hard
Bayonetta, the queen of voguing.
It's both stupid and awesome that DMC and Bayonetta take place in the same universe. Hope sometime we will get a crossover game with the characters. Would love to see how the characters interact with each other and knowing how witty everyone is in both series, there's great potential for some shade-throwing conversations and kickass battle sequences.
This lore has been brought to you by American Bayonetta. Less British, 10 times more sas
I'd just like to mention that during the part where Bayonetta fights sapientia, the whole fight takes place in just a few seconds.. she's sitting in the helicopter when they get up there..
This video was incredible. So well-explained, well-organised and thought-out. This must've taken you a long time to put together, and it truly does the first game justice. I love this story, and even though I know the whole thing off-by-heart, it was great to hear it explained fully, especially with how confusing and difficult the game can be to understand first time around
FUN FACT: Dante from DMC chose the alias "Tony Redgrave" out of respect to Antonio Redgrave, his favorite journalist.
Idk if this is on purpose or not, but the part where Cheshire eye gets severed, the eye is BLUE! While the RED eye, remains. Very neat foreshadowing?
I do have a little problem with the Bayonetta lore and it's that sometimes it doesn't stick with the already established lore or it doesn't fully explain some concepts, on top of that the animated movie changes a LOT of the lore so it mixes in my head, but you're explanation and narration makes it so much better!!
I hope that whenever you do get a Nintendo console, and play Bayonetta 2, you'll have just as much to say about it as you did this video. I have to say this, the Umbran Witches temporal control technique is called Witch Time, not Witch Walk. Witch Walk is what lets them walk on walls and ceilings. The law about light and dark was broken nearly 600 years ago, Bayonetta was nearly 100 years old when Jeanne sealed her away, and she was sealed for 500 years. Bayonetta was born December 19, 1411, and the witch hunts started in 1509. She'd be about 98 when they started, and 598 near the start of the game. She woke up twenty years before the game started though.
And now this will become the perfect pre-Bayo 3 video
Honestly amazing job, I thought I knew almost everything about the lore but you really outdid yourself and know I know way more!
The low-key breakdown about the tarantula is a mood
Saw the pinned comment but…..find yourself some kind of access to a Wii U or a switch, cuz Bayonetta 2 actually clears up and explains and adds context to EVERYTHING covered in bayonetta 1 to the point that it completely changes how some things play out.
Bayonetta is a masterpiece that meshes together the fanservice we needed and DMC style fighting. 👌
Bayonetta 3 is basically Balder's plan going on, that's Cereza at her full potential, probably fighting those beings of Jubileus
Balder plan or Aesir?
Never played Bayonetta, was always interested in it, and your voice is so good for narrating
Another thing to note here is that both the witches and the sages weren't allowed to use their powers against the humans, and Paradiso used this to their advantage as the witches can't fight back against the humans.
I haven't even played Bayonetta but this got a like for the storytelling. You have that quality in your narration that keeps me interested and wanting to listen.
this is the best explanation of the lore of the game i’ve seen! love your content, and appreciate videos like these so much. keep it up! 😄
this series only has 2 installments so far and the lore explanation video is almost equivalent to gamestop's ahs timeline video
This is so good, your voice over is incredible and I found myself fangirling SO HARD
This was so wonderfully done! Thank you so much for all the time and effort you spent putting all of this together. Just perfect!
I wish they would put all of the Bayonetta games on PS...I love this freaking series.. it always intrigued when I was a teen. I look forward to the new game. I had to SUBSCRIBE...YOU DID THIS FLAWLESSLY!!!!
If Sony had put up the funding for Bayo2 as well as greenlighting other titles to keep PlatinumGames solvent like Nintendo did, then your wish would likely be fulfilled.
What a great video! I've watched other "story/lore" videos on Bayonetta, and by far, none of them have provided as clear or as entertaining of an experience as this one!
This was an amazing video, thank you for the time, energy and effort you put into this! I love the franchise as it's been so far and like many others, eagerly anticipate 3! BTW, you have yourself a subscriber!
Outstanding, thank you so much!
I found this channel looking for lore videos to fall asleep to but instead I'm binging the whole channel!
Also Babynetta is life and everything.
Excellent video! I love playing and watching Bayonetta a lot but I always found it difficult to understand her lore, especially when we get to messing with past, present, and future and this video helped out a lot with me understanding everything! (Also Bayonetta 3 HYPE!!!! I can’t wait for it to come out!!!)
I love listening to you retell the story of games i have played in the past.
Even though i have played them and know the stories it feels like i haven't when i listen to you retell them all. It's really cool.
You have an amazing story teller voice and talent, extraordinary.
Can’t wait to watch the next, your narration is awesome
Your explanation was so fun! I’m not much of a gamer, but I love listening to game lore. Keep going! 😊👏🏽
Loved the video!
I thought Bayonetta's outfit was made entirely out of her hair? Maybe there is some leather incorporated because a lot of the texture wouldn't make sense otherwise.
All of the black parts of her outfit, excluding her shoes, are made from her hair. It is... magic, so it basically hardens into a leather-like substance.
i remember playing this game and beng like "WOW SO MUCH LORE" and now its like "WOW SO MUCH MORE LORE! HOW DID I MISS ALL OF THIS!?!??!?!"
youre a wonderful storyteller, it flowed like water on a stream so smooth
I love how you explain things and I love how you bring excitement in your voice.
Wow, your narration is extremely smooth. I have been made to realize that I love Bayonetta and this entire game/story. The style is truly unmatched. Love the details in this to an extent I haven’t experienced yet lol. Thank you! Excellent job with this⭐️
this is absolutely amazing, ive played these games up and down and still learned so much from this. great job and thank you from July 2022. praise to bayonetta 3!
I love how you narrated this.
Man this actually really good you deserve more subs
your narration voice is wonderful. It makes watching lore videos so much more enjoyable. Great job, and keep up the amazing work!
Delightful as always
Really cool lore. The way you narrated it is amazing!! Seems like a cool game, specially facing all those angels
Incredible video!!!! You did an absolute wonderful job🙌🙌 Appreciate you and your vids!!
Been looking for one of these. Good job.
The first video of yours I've watched and I gotta say your script is tremendous and comprehensive. Great stuff. Sub'd
Thank you. I have an even greater respect for the Bayonetta series. Subscribed!
Tip toe with these lore videos have become my new addiction, and I'm loving the high
Best lore video for bayonetta i had seen!!Thanks a lot for this work!
Okay, I just found your content and I adore your light hearted nonchalant sarcasm. Never stop
I LOVE THIS VIDEO, everything was so good🥰 i never enjoyed a patreon ad before but i loved this one.
Best lore video out there!! Everything was explained better than most die hard fans I know. (Including myself) You did such a good job!!!
Never realized how awesome the story was. Gonna give it a try now
This video was so well done. I discovered this channel by accident and am now going to subscribe.
12:44 is where the channel trailer starts lmaoo
Just found your stuff and now I’m binging through loads 😄 really love your content!
Awesome! Enjoy that binge, and thank you!
I’m in love with the thumbnail! 😭❤️❤️
excellent work gained another follower, i was looking for a complete video about bayonetta lore i am brazilian and i know a little bit of english and i have to say that this video was one of the best done so far that i saw explaining bayonetta lore , everything connects perfectly without missing a beat and your narration and voice blended perfectly with the video
Awesome video! I loved the script and sass of the narrator, it's perfect for a game such as Bayonetta.
Oh boy have I found a very underrated channel, might consider becoming a patron
The narration for the Patreon ad was amazing!
This was so well done!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! You explained everything SO well and I’m just happy to finally understand what happened in this game😅 also very entertaining
I’ve spent almost an hour of time first time watching your vids in foreign language and all I could say is you did your work very well,thank you.
Awesome narration! Made the 40 minutes feel like 10.
Looooove it! Glad to finally know what was happening in this game 😂 can’t wait for you to do the sequel!!!
Gurrrrrrllll I love your commentary lols 😂
But very good narration and clips !!
Wow you explained the plot way better than the actual game. For somebody who’s played this game several times, this is the first time that what’s actually going on makes sense.
Would love to see something on the Surge series. Mostly cause I feel like the lore and stuff going on would make a good story
You'll be happy to know it's on the list 👌
I really enjoyed The Surge series and look forward to when she gets around to it.
I am a huge fan of this game series. I have to admit hearing the story of Bayonetta 1 told by you was absolutely was an absolute pleasure. Your voice lends a lot to the story.
Great video! I always wondered what the plot of Bayonetta was. Glad to know.
Loved the info dump of Lora of Bayonetta. Excited to hear the rest. Thank you for doing this.
I can't with you right now lmfao you killed me with your advertisement 🤣🤣🤣 you know you are wrong for that, it was hilarious thank you.
Her: holy crap what insurance do you have
