The subtle detail where in the nier replicant versions there is only 1 emil singing, but in the nier automata version there are multiple emil's singing because he has cloned himself. JUST PERFECT!
This song always makes me think of a child singing the song of a hero that always saves the day, no matter the crisis, no matter how dark the day, that hero comes shining through. The child has faith the hero will come again now, and they are coming... but they won't make it in time... they WILL fail, and the pain of that will resonate with the hero for years to come. When the Automata version hits and the chorus songs those first notes of the hero's song, that pang of tragedy hits the hero again, only this time, they WILL make it. The stronger drums, the horns, and the bridge with the woman singing sounds like a prayer from the hero that this time they'll make it; this time, no one is going to suffer. Their heart, pounding in their chest, can't take another defeat like before.
Hear me out, Karma and Sacrifice are singed by one Emil, the original one. Despair is sang by a chorus of Emils, because of the cloning thing. But the one that really gets me is surprisingly Emil's shop, because he´s mumbling the song, as if he was trying to remember it. I might be over thinking but whatever.
It makes me think imagine if Emil could read these comments and how we all care for him maybe he wouldn’t feel so alone but it’s make me happy how we (the fans) unite to always defend our little floating friend because of how we love and adore him
Remember, Emil is the last human, watched his friends die, lost a war against the aliens in an attempt to protect the memory of his friends, and is immortal and un-killable making him unable to escape the despair-induced loneliness he is doomed to experience for all eternity.
i feel like an absoutle idiot but are the resistance members in nier automata not humans. Cuz all this talk about humanity being extinct but I mean the resistance members are like right there.
Poor Nier did a lot of wrong always with the best of intentions. The end of mankind was the result of a brother trying to save his sister, unaware of the weight of his actions. You can blame Popola and Devola a lot, though. They knew, and they didn't do enough to avoid it.
@@escopeteroce it was never made clear in the game, but a lot of the documents that devola and popola give you, along with the leaked information 9s steals in the sequel imply that humanity was dead regardless of what happened. Even if the gestalt soul lived, humanity would've died because the only soul capable of truly reuniting with their body was the gestalt themself. Every other soul was an imperfect copy. That's why they went insane and the black scrawl started appearing. Somehow the story is even sadder with the knowledge that none of it meant anything and they were all doomed to die anyways
Emil is the most well written and tragic character of this series and probably one of the whole video game industry. And still he's so cheerful, hardworking and optimistic. His whole story made me cry from the start to the end. I love this cute boy so much, thanks for the mix
I personally would say 2B Is the most well written, and overall 2B and 9S the most well written of his writing in general. It's mostly due to the subtlety and nuance of the characters relationship and past, and how it directly ties into the actual games themes and philosophies. It's overall impressive that taro managed to write such deep characters and still have them be sub-surface to the games focus, which remains to be it's ideas, themes and philosophies. And because the characters are "secondary" to this, but are the primary viewpoint that we experience these aspects/story from, it makes the characters act as practical demonstrations of said ideas/themes and philosophies. It's amazingly good writing on a surface level, but when dissecting it, it becomes stupidly genius. Taro took a huge risk writing a story in such an unconventional way. It was either guaranteed to flop or excel massively since it's just so *different*. Emil definitely has the most writing overall done on him, but I think it's a case of a character with a lot of writing vs a character/s with lots of complex writing that applies during their story. And I say character/s because you just simply can't talk about 2B or 9S as characters without talking about both since the relationship is so integral to their characters. Love emil to bits but as I've been saying, my personal favorite writing is 2B/9S, with 2B being my preference since she has loads of subtlety written into her in the game. 9S definitely has a more complete character arc though.
@@trevorveillette8415 it's a shame 2B's character is barely present in game lmao same with A2, but at least hers is accessible almost entirely within the game
@@tovi3280 yeah A2 gets a summarized backstory of the pearl harbor descent In the resistance camp, but I'm pretty sure it's anemones perspective on the events and not A2. The actual short story is definitely more in depth. Doesn't have sweet background music tho. As for 2B, yeah she becomes a scarce character in route C. Although it's very good writing that she was still kept veeeeryy relevant to the story in route C anyways. It still expands on her character. I think the way taro handled the amount of time for each character in the game is pretty much perfect when you compliment the game with the side materials for the lore and backstory to characters and just cook stories in general. 2B and 9S past together NEEDS to be kept secret from the player in order for the games story to work properly the way its intended. Taro couldn't give us a replicant style LN section for them even if he wanted to since any backstory at all spoils the reveals in the tower. So I think their backstory being stuck in the side materials is good for the game. Only bad part about it is that you get the occasional dumbass that played replicant and is like "replicant has better characters hurdurdurdur, automatas cast has no character, 2B has no personality hurhur, she's just ass lololol" You'd think they'd be used to reading books for backstory by now if they played replicant. A game that relies on the side materials for the story to actually make sense. And those same precum babies will say replicant has better story too even though 80% of it is in the side materials? And they clearly don't read them? Like, da fuq? Automata and replicant are just reversed for their side materials. 80% of replicants story is in the side materials, 80% of automatas character backstories is in the side materials.
@@trevorveillette8415 2B is kinda bland tbh, not saying she doesn’t have a character, but she’s not really all that interesting besides her looks. if it wasn’t for 9S being around, i probably would’ve been bored just playing 2B.
The contrast between the despairing vocals and the fast beat reflects Emil's Sisyphus-like fate: Where he's always against something unwinnable yet always choosing to struggle for the sake of his past friends The time stretching nature of this conflict is reflected in this mix, thanks for doing our poor boy justice
Only difference really was that Emil never meant to harm others while Zero was just not that good of a person. Mostly because of her situation. Emil was subjected to science experiments. While Zero killed,robbed, and was a prostitute to survive.
Bruh. This mix does Emil justice as the transition to the next set is smooth af. As someone that listened to many Nier mixes, this one is definitely the best mixes for Emil and the only best mix that uses all the possible available variants. Truly, well done. This aint a small feat.
Have to say emils one of the most heartbreaking characters to exist in a videogame, probably ever. To suffer through all that and deserve non of it. It's so painful it really is.
When music cam literally lift you up out of a bad mood, but compiled on top of the person Emil was it just completely creates a chorus of good feelings inside.
Mom, come pick me up. I'm crying over the little boy who was dealt blow after blow and still had the courage to continue on and face life's hardships again.
Only one song made me start playing this game. Only one song, it gave me the gift of cry after living without crying for 20 years. Only one song that made me feel goosebumps until now.
@@sebastiendacosta6296 Same as me......😢 After listening to this song and learning more about Emil, I regretted playing Nier Automata first and immediately bought Nier Replicant as well.....
Nothing like listening for an hour straight and being constantly locked within indescribable emotional torment and triumph like waves fluctuating between crashing and ebbing into a shoreline I wonder how long someone could just be in the Emil (Song) mindset if people kept making remixed and themed versions of the song. Hell, someone make Emil (Breakfast) and it would probably make me successfully hungry and wake up earlier while questioning my existence
12:52 made my tears just drop on the floor it almost felt like i saw Brother NieRs perspective and everything flashed by since drakengard to Replicant and leading to automata.
A video game character has never made me tear up then emil comes along. You fall in love with his character and witness the tragedy that happened and the sacrifice. My man's deserves all our love
I had a mod in Dark Souls 3 that plays this song while fighting Champion Gundyr. I was high on acid while fighting him and it was probably the most magical I've ever felt while gaming. It made that fight feel desperate and meaningless, had a real feeling of catharsis when I finally beat him, though it was short lived as I soon got to realizing that I'd never feel it that way again. Champion Gundyr's my homie.
That is amazing work my dude ! You turned a masterpiece into something even more unique, Emil's theme is probably my favorite with Song of the Ancients
I fell asleep to this song from another video, and Emil visited my dream. Like a friend long returned to say hello again. The dream wasn't anything serious, he was helping me find sheet music outside of a orchestra. But when I woke up I felt so sad since he was gone after the dream was over. I don't even know why, I hadn't played the game for a while and this happened. I looked up the song to help get the melody out of my head and this song couldn't have been more beautifully made. Thank you for such an amazing edit.
GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO OF EMIL THEME OF ALL VERSIONS. THIS THEME IS LITERALLY WHAT NIER IS TO ME AS A WHOLE AND IT REMINDS ME ALL THE TIME THE SONG IS STUCK IN MY HEAD.
I am someone who played Nier Automata first, and I found this song after clearing Emil's Despair mission for the Y ending and I cried after watching Nier Replicant's short video called 'Emil's Sacrifice'......😢
Look I don't even know this character but this video is making me go through an entire rollarcoaster of emotions. Kinda invested now I'm gonna play the game in the future when i get the chance Update: i got the game on christmas and finished Ending A and B. Will defs play Automata after i get Ending E one day.
It is hard to grasp the whole story without any help though. I think a lot of storytelling and character development happens "between the lines" and behind different endings which makes Taro so special as a game dev. I liked the games, but I needed other people talking about the story to understand the complexity of the Nier universe.
These are games I could never stop recommending to anyone. They're very complex when it comes to the story but once you get hooked on it, it'll be hard to let go. These games were my introduction to concepts that, without any sort of exageration, changed the way I think about myself and others. So really, I hope you have fun with them and come back and listen to this mix with added backstory and context, it'll hit way way harder once you do
@@lolettoa2971you miss out on the remake (and novela) only Ending E as well as a new chapter in the second half of the game by playing the original. I highly recommend playing the remake (even if you have to pirate it)
NieR is really just the story of Emil. hes the only one to live to the end of time to experience all the suffering the world has to offer, and yet he still keeps going (automata is ambiguous id say)
*_I'm... scared. I don't want to... die..._* *_Because this is the world my friend tried to save..._* *_Every day's a sale! Every sale's a win!_* *_Every day is great when you're me!_*
If a tragic, loving, grieving, suffering, optimistic and empathic God ever existed in physical form, dear Emil would be the one to ascend such painful and endearing height. All love to Emil and Yoko Taro for creating such a complex and lovable character!
I agree, although He was hopeful, not optimistic. Utmost will not have what it takes to be seen favourably at the Last Day, as written in Revelation of John, but He was hopeful that many as possible would turn to Trinity. He was pessimistic about man since man needed a path to be redeemed and even when the man received a path to walk, it would be as it was meant to be that something so horrible had to happen onto to the Messias, and that many would not see Him. Every other description fits the Son of Man and Son of God.
This is awesome. I think 10:43 - 11:33 is the most emotional charging for me. After hearing all the previous moments of quite and loud, rhythms, choir, and orchestra, to go not back to quiet again, but rather give this sturdy underscore refusing to be too much or too less, is a great decision. Then to use the DoD3 vocals on top of the regular beginning switches things up and means that the highest tone is touched on for a longer time than we expect, which creates this beautiful brilliance as the top of innocence. My only critical point in this is that it is the same two times in a row, but I don‘t really see another combination that wouldn‘t have lost that brilliance or feeling of variety. After that the sudden shift to the despair vocals, and the trumpet underscoring of it, cries out the unjust suffering Emil has gone through with the innocence gone from the melody and the tone it is sung and played in. This shift in this short time captures the essence of what we find the happiest and the saddest in Emils story, builds perfectly on what was given, and is pretty much a creation of the cutter. So I just mean to say thank you, @RobbyyGss. (Otherwise I also really loved the sudden turn from sacrifice to despair.)
This is a fantastic arrangement! The transitions are great, and the way you ordered them and put them together flows really well. I can't stop listening to it!
Its crazy like 10 years ago emils theme is the song that first introduced me to nier i ran across it on accident and i absolutely had to know where it came from and i ended up playing Nier Gestalt not knowing there were two versions. And i fell in love. This song is so beautiful
It's me again, I'm back. I've been listening to this all morning on loop for some reason... can't imagine why. (It's just very good.) I gotta say, it's not the music that hits me the hardest between Sacrifice and Despair, but the visual with "WARNING - EMIL" cause I remember that being the ONE part of Auto that messed with me. I've played every single entry in DOD/Nier blind. I didn't know what was coming, and I felt Auto was weak in comparison to the rest of the entries, so I fell off a bit on the universe of it-- choosing to watch a video.. and then seeing that one portion on youtube I remember the cold ice down my spine and my head. The mad man actually went and killed my boy. I STILL feel that. I can sit here and watch this video over and over again and still feel it every single time. I don't know why. It's just so embedded in me and the game is just so hardline unapologetic about letting you miss it that I DID miss it, because I felt the game was going easy on my feelings. It wasn't. I just wasn't committed enough. Long story short, that was a really simple visual but I don't know why-- it kicks me every single time this video loops. You done good.
i wonder how many emil clones have went crazy and started attacking androids like the one in the desert from automata. wouldnt be a pretty sight if all of them begin to get serious. possibly the plot for the next nier game.
![Nier Re[in]carnation - Final Chapter Act III - Final Battle BGM (Loop about 15min)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/-r_34zh2VdY/mqdefault.jpg)
The subtle detail where in the nier replicant versions there is only 1 emil singing, but in the nier automata version there are multiple emil's singing because he has cloned himself. JUST PERFECT!
A choir of Emil's would be a more fitting descriptor.
I DIDN'T NOTICE DAMN
This song always makes me think of a child singing the song of a hero that always saves the day, no matter the crisis, no matter how dark the day, that hero comes shining through. The child has faith the hero will come again now, and they are coming... but they won't make it in time... they WILL fail, and the pain of that will resonate with the hero for years to come.

The stronger drums, the horns, and the bridge with the woman singing sounds like a prayer from the hero that this time they'll make it; this time, no one is going to suffer. Their heart, pounding in their chest, can't take another defeat like before.
I genuinely cant fucking stress enough how fucking well this fits with the song, like it genuinely sounds like thats 100% the lore behind it.
have you played nier? because this is genuinely such an on point analysis
"Every day is great when you're me"

Just finished it actually in a ps3 emulator. I will play Nier Automata nexf
@@lolettoa2971you miss out on the remake (and novela) only Ending E as well as a new chapter in the second half of the game by playing the original. I highly recommend playing the remake (even if you have to pirate it)
昔から大好きな曲がこんな素敵な繋げ方してもらえるなんて……。製作者さんの作品愛と技術に感謝します🙏
u can tell love and effort was put into this.
this is PEAK music. I’ve never found an emil mashup where I could turn the volume up this loud
Play the Naruto games. They have amazing music that out perform these games
@@villaniousmustache4898 Naruto games are fun, but I don't think they're as good as NieR.
@villaniousmustache4898 It's nowhere near to nier lol
@@pineapple8934lmao yeah.. naruto have some very dope theme song.. but Nier just on whole different level..
Makes me cry every single time. Thank you so much of this. Secret final boss in automata hit different...
God I haven't felt that emotional in a long while... Thank you for this wonderful edit and tribute to such an incredible, yet tragic, character.
I was genuinely surprised at how good the section at 10:10 sounded :D
thank you so much for this masterpiece, emil's story made me cry so much and this mashup really brings all of his memories together
I was expecting the old emil sacrifice on the very end as a final cherry on top but damn this mix is amazing
NieR is really just the story of Emil. hes the only one to live to the end of time to experience all the suffering the world has to offer, and yet he still keeps going (automata is ambiguous id say)
he is still there, the last remnant of humanity and his mission is cool. Killing the clones I mean.
The real hero always until the end of time.
this gets me so pumped to play the game again ... my favorite game ever nier replicant
11:00 such a smooth transition intothe trumpets... I love that part... so beautiful...
Woah, this is really an amazing edit!! Thank you!
Am I the only one here who just wants to hug this poor, precious boy? And no. I'm not crying. You're crying! Or someone's cutting onions....
*_I'm... scared. I don't want to... die..._*
*_Because this is the world my friend tried to save..._*
*_Every day's a sale! Every sale's a win!_*
*_Every day is great when you're me!_*
The smoothest transitions of any mix I've ever heard, amazing job
Спасибо тебе за этот мешап всех версий темы эмиля❤ я плачу без остановки! Ты гений!
I love the violon part so much in Automata, you always recognize it
If a tragic, loving, grieving, suffering, optimistic and empathic God ever existed in physical form, dear Emil would be the one to ascend such painful and endearing height.
All love to Emil and Yoko Taro for creating such a complex and lovable character!
Jesus was that which you speak of and He will return to us again. He has the power of an indestructible life.
I agree, although He was hopeful, not optimistic. Utmost will not have what it takes to be seen favourably at the Last Day, as written in Revelation of John, but He was hopeful that many as possible would turn to Trinity.
He was pessimistic about man since man needed a path to be redeemed and even when the man received a path to walk, it would be as it was meant to be that something so horrible had to happen onto to the Messias, and that many would not see Him.
Every other description fits the Son of Man and Son of God.
I hope my boy is finally with his best friends Kaine, Nier and Weiss camping and having a blast
I’m crying so much this is why I love the Nier/Darkengard franchise so much.
5:35 god...this transition killed me, my eyes started to burn.
You mean our eyes, brother? ❤
This is awesome.
I think 10:43 - 11:33 is the most emotional charging for me. After hearing all the previous moments of quite and loud, rhythms, choir, and orchestra, to go not back to quiet again, but rather give this sturdy underscore refusing to be too much or too less, is a great decision.
Then to use the DoD3 vocals on top of the regular beginning switches things up and means that the highest tone is touched on for a longer time than we expect, which creates this beautiful brilliance as the top of innocence. My only critical point in this is that it is the same two times in a row, but I don‘t really see another combination that wouldn‘t have lost that brilliance or feeling of variety.
After that the sudden shift to the despair vocals, and the trumpet underscoring of it, cries out the unjust suffering Emil has gone through with the innocence gone from the melody and the tone it is sung and played in. This shift in this short time captures the essence of what we find the happiest and the saddest in Emils story, builds perfectly on what was given, and is pretty much a creation of the cutter. So I just mean to say thank you, @RobbyyGss.
(Otherwise I also really loved the sudden turn from sacrifice to despair.)
This is a fantastic arrangement! The transitions are great, and the way you ordered them and put them together flows really well. I can't stop listening to it!
Emil the best fictional character ever made
Maybe a bit of a stretch
I would say one of the best.
Its crazy like 10 years ago emils theme is the song that first introduced me to nier i ran across it on accident and i absolutely had to know where it came from and i ended up playing Nier Gestalt not knowing there were two versions. And i fell in love. This song is so beautiful
BRO? I JUST CANT STOP LISTENING TO THIS??? ITS TOO GOOD STOP IT?
Emil is the strongest, most caring, and most tragic character in all of gaming. Boundless love, and boundless pain, for all eternity.
this version is a masterpiece, 14 minutes of emotions... i cant thank you enough for this, so keep making awesome masterpiece.
It's me again, I'm back. I've been listening to this all morning on loop for some reason... can't imagine why. (It's just very good.) I gotta say, it's not the music that hits me the hardest between Sacrifice and Despair, but the visual with "WARNING - EMIL" cause I remember that being the ONE part of Auto that messed with me. I've played every single entry in DOD/Nier blind. I didn't know what was coming, and I felt Auto was weak in comparison to the rest of the entries, so I fell off a bit on the universe of it-- choosing to watch a video.. and then seeing that one portion on youtube I remember the cold ice down my spine and my head. The mad man actually went and killed my boy. I STILL feel that. I can sit here and watch this video over and over again and still feel it every single time. I don't know why. It's just so embedded in me and the game is just so hardline unapologetic about letting you miss it that I DID miss it, because I felt the game was going easy on my feelings. It wasn't. I just wasn't committed enough.
Long story short, that was a really simple visual but I don't know why-- it kicks me every single time this video loops. You done good.
Just wanna say, this piece absolutely slapped, and we need more like it in our lives!
Emil suffered so much and only wanted to do so much for humanity and his friends. What a legend.
This hurts... my precious child has suffered enough...
If yonah and Sebastian weren't a pen pal, NieR wouldn't have known Emil, and maybe He would've died by Popola's bursting energy
That final line of his in ending A in the first Nier…the first time around f*cking destroyed me.😭🌊
I still can’t watch the scene without tearing up.🥺😢
Wrote my thesis on Emil and the themes of identity. It kinda confused my teacher, but it was fun to write it all out!
the first time i heard Emil: Sacrifice and Emil: despair ingame, i got teary eyed for some reason. thank you for this!
this game brings back so many memories. even today. Played Nier Automata too. Both amazing games.
This video title has more slashes in it then it took me to beat the last boss.
💀
@@RobbyyBanoffee ❤️
My favorite character! his story is just so deep.
I've been listening to this remix religiously for a year straight without getting tired. It tickles my brain and feeds my Emil loving brain.
This is amazing; the transitions, custom titlescreens and timing are perfect.
i wonder how many emil clones have went crazy and started attacking androids like the one in the desert from automata. wouldnt be a pretty sight if all of them begin to get serious. possibly the plot for the next nier game.
Our boy Emil kept fighting in an endless pit of despair for friends who were dead and ash for 7,000+ years. He's the bestest boy.
min. 6:40 que sincronización mas perfecta, que gran mix tributo a Emil.
One of the best in Nier ost , I love this remix ver , thank you very much
Ты очень силен, ты очень крут. Твоя работа прекрасна ❤
Thank you so much for this. Brought me to tears again.
Much love from me to you. This was beautiful.
Thank you so much for putting this together 🙏🏾
This is perfect man. Thank you
Muiti bom👍👍Estou assistindo você e gostei muito de assistir tudo
“Thanks for always being there for me.”
getting hyped for the anime. i hope they gave emil some spotlight.
I need more videos like this, with others Nier songs
I play this all day when I got the deadline and overtime works to do. Recommended to keep you sane and productive 👍
Haven't played the game but these vocals are super amazing
