First Song: Yodeling in Meadow Hill (Tekken 6) Second Song: Let Me Carve Your Way (Guilty Gear Strive) #guiltygearstrive #memes #shorts #zato #guiltygearstrive
@@De_La_Evo Because instead of hiring a new voice actor and keep calling him Zato (until Strive), Ishiwatari opted for Eddie to take over him and that's how hix GGXX/Xrd lore came to be. If the VA was still alive we probably wouldn't have had Eddie, and Zato would have had a different storyline.
@@missquake You still play as Zato in GGX, apparently it wasn't super clear if he was possessed, overtaken or still struggling for control. In any case I recall Sol's ending is canon in GG1, so Zato's doesn't count (I may be wrong) and Ishiwatari kept the truth about Eddie and him nebulous until GGXX.
Not over how between xrd and strive Eddie went from "ominous shadow creature with the physique of a marble statue and a rock for a head" to "dopey cat shadow with way too many teeth"
@@Leffrey They're some of the most memed scenes in Guilty Gear lore I suppose: Ramlethal eating a hamburger and Sin Kiske explaining how babies are made in the story mode. Guilty Gear is very goofy aah.
Eddie is basically just dragging around Zato's dead body. A human with a puppet that's now dead with that same puppet controlling the human like a puppet.
Not anymore, they used magic to revive him in the game before strive, its actually his whole haracter arc that he revived but without being able to feel much aside from love from milia
Honestly I think he'd take PTSD over what he's got right now. Without Millia, he literally can't feel ANYTHING. That's why he latched on to being with her so hard. He at least feels something around her, even if it's guilt-ridden love that he can't fully understand.
@@senounatsuru6453 I actually quite like the part in his song where he's "don't forget the respect for pain". as in he's got so used to feeling it all the time, along with everything else that now that he's back alive it's like: "This means bad things are happening to your body, me. It's NOT just a thing that you feel, please concentrate or we WILL lose limbs"
Eddie always got the most o.inous artwork. This one in the video where he ols Millia's hair (?) Is good but theres another one where he looks like he escaped from the Spawn comic.
As someone who grew up with GG and mains Millia, I f*cking hated Eddie with every inch of my soul. I can't remember the number of times I had to fight that thing in story mode.
Well, Happy Chaos discovered the backyard, and trying to create a better world actually created something that wanted to destroy humanity. Then tryed to stop it and went crazy as the happy chaos we know so...
yeah, except he is constantly treated like this 'genie in a bottle' figure, only important while useful to I-NO and while he can accomplish her sayings. The moment she got stronger to deal with things herself, he got discarted like a used napkin.
Zato before: you ruined my life, you vile creature! I threw away everything for you and now I’ve died! This existence…is horrible! Zato in strive: you’re my friend now. We’re having soft tacos later :)
@@robertf3606 I komd of disagree, I like screamer metal so maybe that's why. GGST themes are a story, and even the best story makes no sense if we cut anything out.
Lyrics: "If there is a man who can, make anything...give me the tools to live in the past. It's all gone down so deep I can't see anymore. If that's not the way to go, let me....let me....let me carve your way, I'm the shadow always with you.
Yes, Eddie is his name. For a period of the history in the series, Zato himself is ACTUALLY dead, this was due to his VA dying. But he stuck around, with Eddie possessing his body. During that time, the character was called "Eddie" rather than "Zato". Since Xrd, when Zato and Eddie were brought back to life, they've gotten along much better, with Zato taking the reigns once more. He and Eddie now work more like partners, rather than master and servant. One of the big noticeable things from the animation is that Eddie is extremely expressive, unlike Zato, who lost his emotions once he was resurrected. It's one of my favorite theories that, as Zato cannot properly emote anymore, Eddie does the extra emotion to make up for him.
Strive was such a 180 turn from the rest of GG lore. Everything ended up with a happy ending. Which makes no sense considering his bleak GG was before.
My guy. The theme of the game is IN THE NAME. Strive. To seek out and claim something. For some, it's something profound, like self-forgiveness, peace, ease-of-mind after a life bound for vengeance. For others, it's simple, just wanting to be happy, to live a normal life, to sail away from their troubled past. Guilty Gear isn't grim dark. It's got bleak factors, but there's still good to be had. Because no matter what happens, the characters pull through. They have faith, that things can be better. And they *strive* for what they believe in. It is what they fight for. Even though they've had so many pains from the past, at least they can still have hope, to see a better day. If that isn't a good message, I don't know what is.
Zato can be played at an extremely high level, the problem is that the skill threshold required to use him effectively is also very high; you REALLY need an advanced understanding of all his mechanics to play him properly. Very much like Yoshimitsu in Tekken.
I watched a vid explaining ggst lore. And when they got to Zato, oh boy. Like just hearing that he was some mid tier assassin and then used 1 spell. Got his shit rocked by Eddie and now is just Eddie’s bitch. Zato ruined Eddie’s life years ago and is just seeing how much more he can. Zato dies, comes back as basically a husk, remembers nothing, and is confused why some pretty blonde lady seems so weird around him and why Eddie doesn’t like her. The lore is so confusing, but if you learn it then you’ll see that pretty much every single character has such a good story.
Assassin Guy who sacrificed his eyesight for the contract he made with shadow demon boio, Eddie. Died, but he got better. Lost his emotions, trying to make it up to someone he loved and wronged in the past.

Fun Fact: Zato's original voice actor died before the arcade release of Guilty Gear X, an event that really shaped Zato's lore.
How so?
@@De_La_Evo Because instead of hiring a new voice actor and keep calling him Zato (until Strive), Ishiwatari opted for Eddie to take over him and that's how hix GGXX/Xrd lore came to be. If the VA was still alive we probably wouldn't have had Eddie, and Zato would have had a different storyline.
@@Cyclobomber i thought zato died before the voice actor, at the end of the first guilty gear. Eddie takes control over him after he beats justice.

Yeah, old design was far more sleek and menacing. New one looks like a cringy 2013 sp00ky creepypasta character
I love having shit like this be my only source of Guilty Gear lore
I’ve watched/read most of it and this stuff actually does a pretty good job lol
Precisely, it makes no sense but eventually you add a hamburger and baby making to it and you just enjoy it.

He's alive again ever since Strive or earlier I think.
@@ravenred6878 Xrd, he was revived in Xrd without emotions
Where did I hear that? That's something happened also to a son of the Aubergine Man
what?
"Oh, this guy. Oh yeah, so his deal is he has PTSD now from having died a while back, even though he was revived"
"... wait, what?"
Honestly I think he'd take PTSD over what he's got right now. Without Millia, he literally can't feel ANYTHING. That's why he latched on to being with her so hard. He at least feels something around her, even if it's guilt-ridden love that he can't fully understand.

Eddie: y’all already know
Zato's Body: Ah shit, here we go again.
Man, older GG lore wad fucking raw.
Eddie always got the most o.inous artwork. This one in the video where he ols Millia's hair (?) Is good but theres another one where he looks like he escaped from the Spawn comic.
A lot of the old stories and art was WAY edgier then today which makes sense cause it was 00s being edgy was the thing to be
@@MILDMONSTER1234 pretty much edgy staff was actually good those times

skill issue
@@Yhurga0 Goofy ahh skill issue
Eddie has always been annoying… Zato has been primarily dead
Just vanish into dark
Damn, that really sinced up nicely with lore
this is literally every character .
even may.
her entire country literally disapeared
And it's terminally sick if I. Remember correctly
not chipp and HC they're just vibing

Nope not even he got a break
@@JustSippingTea damn

The worst thing to happen to Zato’s was him being the worst character in Xrd after everything he went through
"Oh, Zato is useless without Eddie? Then you guys won't mind if I nerf Invite Hell, right?"
it's okay he's strugglin in +R too
It's okay he's struggling in Strive too.
Guilty Gear’s story may be overly complicated but navigate the lore and you’ll find compelling and emotional stories
Guilty themes can be summed up as damn this is a banger but damn is it hard to see with these tears
I'm dead lmao that's so accurate
Yeah it's hard to see alright
its ok eddie said hes sorry
Zato before: you ruined my life, you vile creature! I threw away everything for you and now I’ve died! This existence…is horrible!
Zato in strive: you’re my friend now. We’re having soft tacos later :)
Tbf I think the lore ends up being "haha Eddie is so silly" eventually

Man, that song was so deep and meaningful... Oh yeah, and Zato's theme was pretty good too
"I see"
- Zato
If zato would not use the forbidden spell he would be much happier

It's really the only good part of his theme unfortunately

Literal and figurative addiction that consumed him and left him as something that isn't him anymore. Pretty Pog if I do say so myself.
that tekken 6 music caught me off guard and gave me nostalgia. thank you.
what kind of unnatural shadow monster is called 'eddie'? freaking Eddie?!
Its a reference to the metal band iron maiden, their mascot is a zombie called Eddie.

I know nothing about gg as a zato main in strive but DAMN he traded his sight for control over eddie and STILL got killed and controlled by him???
Hehe goofy eddi- *I once had some SWEET MEMORIES*
Eddie sprites: im the silly mans
Eddie lore: hand it over. that thing, your dark soul
Eddie has a sense of humour. :)
haha eddie is so silly
Silly eddie what do you think you are doing!
Never played guilty gear before. Eddie is that shadow's real name or is a name Made by the comunity??
Real name
Dude the young anime girl using an anchor like a fly swatter can canonically do so simply because she's japanese, you think we _need_ to make shit up?

The Venom of GG
No, the Venom of Guilty Gear hides his face and wields a pool cue.
@@Bomber679 I think he's talking about the one from Spider-Man, not from the same series.

Resumed lore videos
Same, i hate baldguy(faust) use instakill.
This is not fair
i just realised Eddie look like Millia character Logo LMAO.
Literally Venom
Say what you want, but I miss Eddie's voice in Guilty Gear. If there was at least one move where he talks, I would spam it.
It still annoys me that there is a line in the game which Zato says that they should act cool, which for me kinda ruins him a bit
Reine Fatoumata
Eddie is just a wacky goober (that slowly possessed and killed Zato)
Strive was such a 180 turn from the rest of GG lore. Everything ended up with a happy ending. Which makes no sense considering his bleak GG was before.

@@Sassaparilla Thank you for having common sense.
Have a 🐣
And i'm eternally grateful for it because 90% of GG lore up until Strive was just straight up bullying
They needed a game with a happy ending after Blazblue
"I'm edgy I don't like happy endings"
To be fair, he had it coming
The reason i want to play Zato-1
I know everyone's talking about Zato's lore, but why tf does Eddie laugh by saying "heh heh heh heh heh"?
Ah yes. Can't feel emotions because he experienced hell.
Eddie too silly
