Baiken is blind in one eye and missing an arm. Hence, why some of her crazier weapons only come out for a moment: They're in her sleeve where her missing arm would be.
😯
You got strive on pc? I'm always looking for matches!
@@ThePhilocypher I do now! Let's play!
@@ThatSamoanGuy and he was never heard from again
@@monsieurtophat4853 legend says he was stomped 3 for 3 by a anji player and couldnt haddle the shame
Sol Badguy's backstory is both really sad but also really funny. Funny because he's actually a massive dork. He's got this whole badass vibe but he's actually a scientist. He proposed to his wife with a fucking computer program error message. He has a degree in particle physics. He made his own weapon not because he needed one but he wanted a hobby. And his real name isn't Sol Badguy. It's fucking Fred. Imagine picking a fighting game character called Fred.
Fred’s can be badass too 😜
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Daisuke Ishiwatari (the main creator of this series) is a huge Queen fan. So Sol’s name being Fred is an homage to Freddy Mercury lol.
@@shaunrpmusic Both of his names are. Same last name (Bulsara), Freddie and Farrokh, both of Mercury's names can sorta be combined into Fredarrokh, which is very close to Frederick, and Badguy is of course an homage to the solo album and nickname of Freddie Mercury, Mr Bad Guy.
have you seen bob from tekken?
He also kiled his wife like 3 times
Here’s a fun fact about every character!
-Sol: He helped create genetically-engineered bio-weapons called Gears, and he was the first prototype.
-Ky: he is the first of 3 kings of Illyria, a melting pot nation made from England, France, and most of Asia.
-May: she is a pirate, one of the many (exclusively female) war orphans adopted by Captain Johnny.
-Axl: He is a time traveler who recently learned to control his powers.
-Chipp: he was an American drug-addict who was reformed by a ninja, and eventually founded a KINGDOM in Africa, that he became the PRESIDENT of.
-Potemkin: he was a slave warrior from Zepp (formerly India) that helped lead a revolution for his country and now serves as the second in command. His muscles are a genetic disorder.
-Faust: He was a doctor who went crazy and became a serial killer after a little girl died on his operating table. After learning it was staged malpractice, he put the bag on and reformed himself in order to save as many lives as possible to atone.
-Millia: a former assassin harboring a magical beast parasite that turns her hair into a living weapon. She now leads a government intelligence bureau.
-Zato-1: his shadow is a beast like Millia’s. They used to be lovers but she killed him (it’s complicated). He became the first human to be resurrected and now lives to protect the woman he loves.
-Ramlethal: she declared the second war on humanity but Ky’s son helped her discover emotions and she is now on the side of good serving Illyria.
-Leo: 2nd King of Illyria. He has survivor’s guilt from the war against Gears, and fights with his back turned so it’s easier for him to die on the battlefield.
-Nagoriyuki: he is a Vampire Samurai, unsealed and controlled by Happy Chaos against his wishes.
-Giovanna: a member of the US presidential security team, her wolf is named Rey and she leaves her cleavage exposed so she can attract a good man to take home.
-Anji: a Japanese man who is lead purely by wanderlust. His giant fans are a stolen sacred relic, and he has close ties to Baiken.
-I-no: another time traveler who was created by the depression from the war manifesting in an alternate dimension as an artificial life.
-Goldlewis: Secretary of Absolute Defense. He doesn’t believe in aliens, but they pull pranks on him like abducting his opponents when he looks away after defeating them.
-Jack-O: an artificial life created using half of Aria’s soul. Aria was Sol’s lover who died from a terminal illness and was used to create the first Perfect Gear, Justice, who later started the war against humanity before the very first Guilty Gear game.
-Happy Chaos: The man who first discovered magic, who eventually lost his mind and is now out to spread chaos. In GGST story mode, he leads a terrorist attack on the White House. He cares little about good or bad, he just wants drama.
-Baiken: a Japanese woman who lost an eye and an arm during a gear attack, and is out for revenge against Happy Chaos.
-Testament: a man who was killed and experimented on, becoming a Gear and has transcended both genders. They were previously a mind-controlled evil pawn but now just want to live peacefully.
Chipp has a cool story. Being reformed by a ninja is always a win 😊
Baiken is not after Happy Chaos' head, she's after Asuka's head. AKA 'That Man'.
@@reefisgonethey cover it in GGST story mode, there was actually 2 of “That Man”. One who created the Gears and made some choices like Destroying Japan AKA Asuka. The other committed various atrocities throughout the Crusades under the guise of being That Man, aka Happy Chaos.
They go a little more into detail further confirming it in Another Story, when Baiken reveals that Anji told her about who she should really be after.
@@reefisgone nope, that man is a mantle shared by 2 people, Asuka and chaos, Asuka made gears and nuked Japan, Happy was going around committing atrocities during the crusades, one of which was orphaning Baiken
Thanks for the lore👍
*Ken: Immediately snaps up May*
Ah, I see he's continuing the "Grab all the evil characters" thing from League of Legends
😂 and here I thought she was on the good side 😈😁
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames shes more evil then you can imagine
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames her game plan is definitely evil in the way she makes people suffer.
Yes! As somebody with multiple Guilty Gear tattoos, I have been waiting for you guys to get around to this!
Say what?
Sounds badass ngl
Damn
How many and of what and whom? 🤔😯😎🤟
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I've got a few of the lyrics from the songs in xrd and I've got a big one of Sol Badguy's sword on my inner left forearm :)
Interesting fact: The creator, composer and musician for Guilty Gears' multiple games are all the same person. Daisuke Ishiwatari. This is his brainchild he's been crafting for decades now.
Can't wait for you to see more of this crazy series.
Gotta respect the passion and dedication to overseeing so much 🙂😎🤟
is daisuke the primary musician? i thought he just composed and directed (plus doing some key art and most character design)
@@paperwoman839 he's also the voice you hear in most songs lol
@@sayantanchatterjee3626 nope, that'd be naoki
daisuke only composes the songs
Baiken only has one arm, that's why she uses her mouth to sheath the sword.
😎👍😀 Thanks!
Happy chaos is likely the most powerful being in the universe- and he uses a gun because they look cool. Also his theme is the adhd anthem. I love him and he’s very fun to play
Edit: also sol bad guy is canonically a queen fan.
Edit 2: other things, nagoriyuki is a vampire, Goldlewis doesn’t believe in aliens- even they they prank call him and abduct his foes, and jack-o is kinda but not really sols wife? Guilty gear is weird
Haha, love the random Goldlewis fact about aliens 😂😁😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I have a ton of random facts. Sol is kys father in lw
one of happy chaos guns is really strong though, where only 5 exist in the multiverse. The other one is just a copy he made for fun
@@plain7439 He still doesn't need the guns though, He obliterated an entire District by snapping his fingers with minimal effort, And he was able to move around when Axl stopped time
Further note on Goldlewis, he actually knows something is in the coffin, but instead, thinks it is a random Cryptid, as he doesn't believe in Ghosts or Aliens.
Some notes about the characters.
Leo is actually a lot sadder than you might think. During one of the biggest wars, the soldiers he led, all died. He got some major PTSD from it, in his theme he multiple times asks for forgiveness and to be "let out of this hell". Basically whenever he fights, he has two goals. Beat the opponent or die. Ky was also in that war, but because he's a devout Christian, just carved 'hope' on his belt.
Zato isn't that much better, when he made a pact with his shadow buddy (Eddy btw), he lost his eyes. But I think Eddy can see for him, he apparently can use a computer no problem. But, Millia amd Zato were once lovers. Until plot reasons happened and Millia killed Zato. Eddy then takes over his body for a while until Zato is brought back to life. After being in GG version of hell, Zato lost his ability to feel emotions. All but for one exception. Millia is the only person who can make him feel anything, so his only drive to go forward is to protect the person who killed him.
Heavy spoilers
Axl and I-no are in a weird way the same person.
Thanks for the info on Leo and Zato 🙂
@DissedRedEngie I might be wrong on this but for Axl and I-No they are actually from the same timeline and we're lovers but both were changed (especially I-No) when thrown into the main timeline and can hardly remember/know each other,you can get alot of hints of this when watching the strive story
Two things, first Faust has a name for the Mother of all Scalpels he uses "Margarita" and second, Season two was announced at EVO recently with a returning character "Bridget". She's been a heavily requested character since the early Guilty Gear games and her return is something.
Nice! Happy to hear Guilty Gear community got a nice reveal for season two 😀
Guilty Gear is really bonkers.
Stylish Characters, Amazing Music, Alot of Music References.
And an absolutely crazy Story.
😂 makes for a fun time 🥳
I recently fell down this rabbit hole, heard some music in a meme. Looked up the music.
$60 for an album with a fighting game attached is a pretty good deal.
I play Anji, his gimmick is that his specials all start with an invincible spin that all look the same. You are essentially putting a gun to your opponents head and forcing them to play Rock Paper Scissors.
Was this meme by chance a video of 2 poorly drawn birds fighting each other?
@@venomousasian6579 no actually, it was a fire emblem meme. Smell of the game was playing as a sword master was shmoving on someone.
ua-cam.com/video/IKGOR7RrbdU/v-deo.html
I had never even HEARD of guilty gear before.
That’s a cool Guilty Gear origin story 😁 And Anjis gimmick sounds like fun 😎🤟
Nah homie you do that spinny shit catch this grab 😂
Kens face of pure confusion when he saw Testament was freaking hilarious
Now I'm just hoping to see your reaction to Faust's second super! Since his opponents have different reactions depending on WHO Faust is fighting, but it'll be a tad bit painful.
Honestly, they would need to see some video that covers character reaction to Faust super, Potemkin super, getting an afro (since they actually have reaction quotes), and getting abducted by aliens
That’s fun that each character has a different reaction on some supers 🙂😀
honestly Faust is my favorite because his story and how he is moves in the games are so ridiculous you cant not love him.
😁😎🤟
my favorite is zato, i like his backstory, he's fun to play, and his theme is fire
The thing with Baiken it's that she's missing an eye and an arm, using her empty sleeve to store multiple weapons, which includes a claw on a chain, a big blade, a spiked club, a cannon, a shotgun and a rope that she can use to tie herself closer to the opponent
Also, Happy Chaos is pretty much in-universe one of the strongest beings around, the strongest being I-No. But he just wants to do whatever he wants, and uses guns just because they look cool. Also, there's Axl Low, who is also crazy powerful because of his time powers, but he's one of the good guys, so people don't consider him a threat.
For some reason, Faust went from "nice, wacky comic relief crazy doctor" to "creepy crazy doctor who tries to be funny". He has a super where he accidentally tackles the opponent down to gaze at a four-leaf clover, but sees the downed opponent and grabbing a wheelchair, rushing in to help... But ends up accidentally hitting the wheelchair right on the opponent's leg, causing them to funnily contort their faces in pain
Haha, that Faust super is crazy. Fun whacky game. Dare I say. Kooky and crazy 😛
The freeze thing is a wallsplat. It’s a universal mechanic and if you hit a splatted opponent you wallbreak. It’s the main tool this game uses to keep combos from going on forever
You should check out Testament's Japanese Trailer, even just for yourselves. That trailer made a lot of people confused and question their preference.
Thanks for the rec 🙂
2:16 When this was first shown at EVO this was the moment the crowd went nuts.
😎🤟🤩
Fun Fact about each character;
- Sol is a reference to Queen, in both character name (Bad Guy was Freddie Mercury's nickname) and character's real name, Fredrick Bulsara (Freddie Mercury's real name)
- Ky Kiske is also a reference to a drummer, is married to a machine and is Sol's son-in-law
- May is from a group of pirates named after months
- Chipp is a recovering drug addict who bought a country and trained to be a ninja
- Zato 1 and Eddie (his shadow thing) are both canonically dead and resurrected
- Potemkin was a slave soldier responsible for liberating an entire country
- Axl Lowe can stop time, and comes from 1999
- Ramlethal is a shard of a computer demigod named Valentine. She *was* going to destroy humanity until she found pleasures in petting dogs and eating burgers.
- Faust was a doctor who went a little nuts after someone died on his operating table through no fault of his own
- Leo Whitefang is a king of a country, who has severe PTSD and survivor's guilt from the crusades (a war between humans and gears). He also has his own dictionary.
- Nagoriyuki is a straight up vampire
- Millia Rage's hair is alive
- I-No caused a bit of controversy on launch, with a voiceline where she says "Be my bottom bitch"
- Anji ruined everything because he was curious
- Baiken is from Japan, a country that was atomized in GG's lore, making her a fugitive
- Giovanna's theme is near identical to Sabotage by the Beastie Boys
- Testament is a shard of Justice, the original Gear that went all Skynet and attempted to wipe out humanity. He later turned pacifist and stayed in the woods.
- Goldlewis has one move and it's a banger
and finally;
- Happy Chaos is an immortal wizard who uses a gun because it's funny. He doesn't fight for a reason, it's just something to do. Also, his theme has a "disney princess" vibe to it.
Edit: I forgot Jack-O. Jack-O is technically a clone of Sol's dead wife
Minor correction, Testament is not referred to as "he" anywhere in official sources. It has been a common misconception for a long time that Testament goes by he/him when in reality they go by they/them. They're agender. Whether this is a result of the Gear process is unknown, but likely not as there are gendered Gears like Sol, Sin and Dizzy.
Some corrections:
Ky is not married to a machine. The Gears are not machines. They are artificially created, but they’re organic, living creatures.
Ramlethal was created by the Universal Will, not Valentine. The original Valentine was created by the Universal Will in the same way Ramlethal was, but long before her
Testament was not created by Justice. He was under her control for a time, but his origins and birth have nothing to do with her
@@Rd0Lg Testament is referred as "he" in GG Wolrd and by Nago in the arcade. Though Chip uses they, so is not very consistent
You forgot Jack-O and the fact that Baiken lost her arm
@@blakekoch1299 Gears are an amalgam of reptiles, machines (like programming) and magic. Not *fully* machines, but not fully flesh either.
Ramlethal (and Elphelt) call Valentine their "mother" in xrd
Testament was technically a gear made from the remnants of Justice and the Megadeath-class Gear that destroyed britain.
Faust’s Wheelchair super causes each character to have a different facial expression as the wheelchair hits their shin. His old super in its place was him teleporting behind the opponent to ram 2 fingers up their ass. Again, each character has a unique reaction, ranging from pain to anger to embarrassment to even arousal in Ino’s case. Faust was much more comedic in the older games and the horror angle is new.
We were told they have videos of everyone’s reaction to it which is pretty fun 🙂
Probably a tall order to ask for you to react to each character’s themes since they’re all unique. Loved the vid btw.
We haven’t covered just music before but we could eventually start checking that stuff out 🙂
I have been waiting for this. This is so much fun to watch y’all react to fighting games. Love y’all channel because you guys are watching every genre and not a single of genre of games. Great work 😁😁. Hope y’all react to their supers some time because they are pretty cool.
Glad you’re enjoying the diversity of content. Fight night Friday is always fighting games but has been for a decent streak now. 🙂
Guilty Gear is one of my favorite fighting games because of how awesome the characters are
😎🤟🤩
So Happy Chaos, the guy at 17:15, is one of the most powerful magic users in the series and is incredibly dangerous. Funnily enough though, as soon as he was released from his box prison, he found a gun and a cool jacket and just went with it. Guy’s awesome.
Also I believe Testament is nonbinary
Happy Chaos is a fun character all around 😀😈😇
This was such a creative way to creative and fun way to react, claiming the characters and all haha
So some random, unsolicited fun facts.
You probably wouldn't guess it, but lore-wise the most powerful character in the roster is... I-no. Happy Chaos is a close second, but only because he absorbed half of I-no's power to stop her from transcending time and destroying existence. Perhaps even more strangely, Axl Low is also one of the most powerful characters in the series due to his time-manipulation powers, but none of the characters consider him a threat because he's such a nice guy.
Speaking of Happy Chaos, unlike most villains he doesn't really have an end goal or huge ambition. He only does what he does to alleviate his boredom. He even deliberately leaves holes in his plans because it's more fun that way.
In the previous games, Faust was BY FAR the goofiest character and was basically almost entirely comic relief. Between games he went through....something that turned him into what he is now. Look back at him in your Guilty Gear Xrd video and compare that to him now.
Testament as the 5th DLC character was a massive but not unwelcome surprise for most fans. For comparison, Goldlewis and Happy Chaos are new characters from the story mode, while Jack-o and Baiken were in the previous game. Testament, on the other hand, hadn't appeared in the series for nearly two decades.
The series is filled with references to real-life rock and heavy metal bands. For example, Axl Low is named after Axl Rose of Guns N' Roses, and Sol Badguy has numerous references to Queen, such as his real name being Frederick and his headband having "Rock you" carved into it
Happy Chaos leaving holes in his plan is pretty fun. That could lead to some good comedy 😂 wish more games did cinematics like Overwatch and Apex Legends to where they go over lore, backstory and such 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames guilty gear's story is very much a 1-2hr movie which is pretty good
Fun fact:
Sol Badguy who's real name is 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗕𝘂𝗹𝘀𝗮𝗿𝗮 which refers to Queen's lead singer 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗱𝘆 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗰𝘂𝗿𝘆's nickname "𝗠𝗿. 𝗕𝗮𝗱 𝗚𝘂𝘆"
Also Bulsara was Freddy mercury’s real surname
Doesn't Jack-o's crouching position make you think of fat bottomed girls?
😎🤟 great fun fact! 😀
@@JforJegan which is even better.
Yeah Guilt Gear has tons of musical references just like the Jojo series. xD
My all-time favorite character in the Guilty Gear series is Dizzy, she is very innocent to that of a child who does not want to hurt anyone but because of what she is she can essentially go berserk and become a merciless individual, at least that's what I got from her lore, I hope they add her to the Strive roster at some point.
Any reason why they wouldn’t add her? 🤔
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I do not think so, she might come to the roster in the future.
Yooo! I've been waiting for this reaction! If you want to go further down the rabbit hole that is Guilty Gear I recommend WoolieVersus Lore series which goes through everything in the lore in a nice and easy way and leaves off at the current games story modes.
Thanks for the channel rec! 😀
If you guys have time listen to their themes also nagoriyuki has two themes his normal one is called What do you fight for, and his Boss battle one is called Crawl
We have been hearing the themes are a good listen and give some backstory even 😀
It's either Jack-O or Baiken that's may favorite character, but Testament has also been really fun to play.
If you guys enjoy Guilty Gear I'd also recommend checking out Blazblue: Central Fiction. Another very over the top anime styled fighter developed by Arcsys. The Astral Finishers (Super Moves) can be a real treat experiencing them for the first time with no context.
Blazblue is on our request list to check out 🙂
Guilty Gear is one of my favorite fighting games of all time. It's SO fun to play and the characters are crazy. The music is a total blast too. Giovanna came out in Strive and she VERY quickly became one of my favorite characters. I just got done customizing my arcade fight stick with art of her.
Hadn’t realized Giovanna was a new character to the series 😀
Same I'm LOVING Gio
Loved this video! Happy to see you guys getting into more Anime stuff.
Guilty Gear is a special type of fighting game. Theres a lot of passion put into the personality, character lore, and of course the music.
Each character has a theme song describing the character and their goals. Their album is actually on Spotify if you guys like rock music.
We plan on checking out the themes as well 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Awesome, looking forward to it. Wish you much success to your channel 👍🏻
Would love it you two did draft for Granblue Fantasy Versus! Also worked on by Arc System so the visual style is very similar.
We will be checking that game out in the future 😇
Always love the Fight Night Fridays! Especially with Guilty Gear Strive.
🥳🥳
Long have I waited, guilty gear strive reactions activated 😁 Ty.
Our pleasure 😀🥳
You should do a video listening to their theme songs!
This games music has so much personality and you can get a lot about the characters from listening to the themes too
Although some of them are a bit confusing
There's a good play list on UA-cam that has the songs and lyrics over the gameplay made by someone named CloudDrop
They're really well edited and if you do choose to listen to them for a video I would highly recommend their Playlist!
Thanks so much! We had heard about the themes but didn’t want to watch just a video of a still image and then the music (we briefly scrubbed through one vid just to check out what the visuals were like.) But this playlist with actual fighting is a win win 😀
Happy Chaos is easily my favorite, he’s laid back and apathetic, but ruthless with his execution, and follows his own rules that drastically oppose whoever he meets, making him Happy and also Chaotic, and also he plays a pretty badass game with those guns
Happy Chaps Looks like a fun character 😀
If you ever plan to try to react to character themes in Strive (which are basically extension of their backstories), I highly recommend GekkoSquirrel's video explaining the meanings behind the songs.
Thanks for the channel rec cuz we do plan on checking out the themes 🙂
This is one of my favourite games. Glad to see you react to it.
🙂
That side eye when he said he digs ram lol
😒😜
What would be cool is for you guys to listen to all the game's Character OST and see if it changes your picks :D
This game's OST adds so much more to the characterisation !
Make sure to be using the CloudDrop playlist ! :D
Happy chaos looked at the normal world, said "fuck it" added magic to it, then gave that magic to humans, so he would use his magic in game right? After all he is the most powerful magic user in the setting (to my knowledge). Nope, he rolls up with a gun and caps you cause using his magic would be boring to him
He did save the world from a new dark age when he was a sane human, but otherwise that’s about right. Afterwards he disappeared and became Chaos
Gotta respect Happy Chaos wanting a challenge 😁✊
My first intro to this game was actually a outdo to adeptus ridiculous where they played the first few seconds of the very first song in this video and it was so good I immediately went and got the first one of the series and have been going ever since.
Nice origin story ☺️
Ah, my favorite fighting game!
Just look at this characters! They're amazing!!!
And their music themes, oh boi, they are magnificent 👌
Fun game for sure 🥳🤩
I'm glad you guys got around to Guilty Gear Strive. It has the coolest characters of any fighting game and their current iterations are by far the best looking (and most cohesive as a roster) that the series has ever seen. The soundtrack is amazing as well, so I highly recommend checking out all the character tracks.
We do plan to check those out at some point 🙂
Hell yeah so glad Bethany, drafted majority of my favorites from the cast Giovanna being my main, I-No, Potemkin and Testament being my second picks.
Here's hoping these characters peaks your interest in story of the series, because it's kinda nutty. Like how the story is set in a timeline where what if Y2K actually happened.
More along the lines of "Y2K was averted because the illuminati showed up and taught people how to use magic"
We have been getting some fun story facts and this is indeed super whacky haha. Makes us curious though and keeps it interesting 😀
Love watching some Guilty Gear trailers lol, I play a lot of May and Nagoriyuki!
😎🤟
As a Zato main I'm so curious to see your take on some of the theme songs. They literally are all bangers but Zato's in particular is a punch to the heart if you understand the lyrics and context.
So should we check our lore before the songs then? 🤔
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames The lore of Guilty Gear is absolutely bonkers but yes, go for it!
Let me tell ya, you'll love the characters if you guys ever introduce yourself for more, like for example:
- an old man veteran knight with a giant dragon tooth sword who can age backwards
- Monster/machine that looks like a dragon
- Johnny Bravo swordsman who fights with style
- A Chinese cook girl who fights like Bruce Lee
- A mystical billiard player with hair that covers his face
- Monster girl who looks like an angel
- A robot parody version of existing character
- A vampire man who recites haiku in Sean Connery accent, while fighting with fists
- A dude possessed by the Ring ghost girl, and others
- A young boy who dresses like a girl and uses yo-yos as weapons
And MORE...
You're forgetting Abba, the frankenstein's monster-esque lady who uses a key/axe as a weapon.
@@SSD_Penumbra oh no, you're right, I forgot her
Also a kid with a flag who looks like a man, a fox man, a dragon scholar, an emotionless girl with living balloon and an immortal, edgy masochist
@@axelwust9376 Oh I forgot about Sin, the 5 year old who resembles a man in his 20s because GEAR MAGIC.
This one liners about them are quite entertaining on their own 😀
Love this franchise and glad you featured it. I think you all would have fun with a BlazBlue draft. I think the last installment has the most characters which would be fun to watch. Especially since I think their characters are just as wild as Guilty Gear.
We do plan to check out that franchise as well 🙂
This game has a lot of badass female characters! I love it!
😎🤟😁
the most funny to em is that the two characters who appear in the first video, are oviously been rivals from the beggining of the videogame saga... but now, for weird plot happenbings the blonde guy is son in law of the red guy XD
😯
an often overlook character element is Axl Low is meant to be based on Axl Rose from Guns and Roses - the designers like using bands and singers as inspiration or as references like the aforementioned Sol - Queen/Freddie Mercury. Random note i was very surprised with Potemkin's look in the current series as in the older ones he was almost hulk like in his look but i guess he got promoted - his backstory was he is a bio-engineered slave soldier and his old look had him topless save for massive collar/shoulder harness which was part armor part means of keeping him in line if need be.
We should’ve been able to guess that one 😝
The draft is an interesting way to add depth to this kind of content. Came for the Nago reaction, stayed for the draft. Nice work
Yay, more guilty gear! Thank you guys so much for checking more out!
Our pleasure! Fun and crazy series 😛
Haha the Testament reaction was so pure, especially at the super, just constant amazement. XD
😂🤩🤗
Everybody in guilty gear has a musical reference in their names or attacks. Sol is Freddie Mercury, Potemkin is the name of the band, Jack-o is a reference to Michael Jackson, etc.
😎🤟 dig it 😁
God "love the subhuman self" is such an amazing song, only song me and my friends fight to besides the GG theme
😎🤟
i was waiting for this one
🥳🥳
Make sure you check out the older Guilty Gear games (& GGX opening intro).
I know this comment is pretty old but I'm starting to see you all over the place now dude lol, seems that we have pretty similar interests
Millia and Giovanna are easily my mains in this game. I don't play as much as I did before but I honestly kinda miss it. Y'all's reactions just might make me pick it up again and refresh myself.
Glad we could help inspire ya to pick it up again. Let us know how it goes 🥳🥳🙂
basic character background in order
*Sol Badguy* : Birth name, Frederisk Bulsara. 200+ year old bounty hunter, formerly an american theoretical particle physicist. forcibly subjected to a prototype cellular modification bioweapons experiment known as the Gear project that was initially developed from medical cellular research that he himself helped to devise with his lover, Aria Hale as well as former colleague, Asuka R.

Chief Commander of the now defunct Sacred Order of Holy Knights during the Crusades against the Gears. Currently married to an 8 year old Gear and has a 5 year old Gear hybrid son.
*May* : ~22 year old Japanese woman and acting captain of the harem group known as the Jellyfish Pirates. name given to her to reflect the month she joined the pirate group
*Axl Low* : British former gang leader. Experienced an unknown anomaly that created two timelines and granted him temporal abilities. Control of these abilities came only after he destroyed one of those timelines.

Thanks for giving us some more info on the characters! All very unique designs and some fun backstories to go with it 😀
A shame not all characters from Xrd are here tho.. Would've loved to see you draft them, as well.
This is cool to see just how the trailers did in showing the flavor of the characters. I think they did great with some and meh with others.
Good representation was probably: May, I-no, Testament, Giovanna
More cloudy representation was probably: Ramlethal, Baiken, Zato (although you guys picked up more than I would have thought), Nagoriuki
Most of this is understandable, because the characters have a lot going on. For example it might be hard to explain Ramlethal's character arc/state in 30 seconds. On the other hand, another example, im not sure either of you picked up that Baiken needed to unsheathe her sword with her mouth because shes missing an arm. They could have had better conveyance there for sure.
I had a lot of fun seeing your reactions to the characters!
We totally missed that she didn’t have an arm. We just thought she was being a badass in that moment 😂
Man, Happy Chaos is the ultimate shitlord. He isn’t even trying to win any of the fights he’s in, he’s just there to see what happens. You can see in the way he moves and barely even aims, it’s unreal.
😎🤟
Oh man guilty gear is my favorite game to play of all times I love this game man let's get it
More like let's rock
😎🤟🥳
So after having one of your videos recommended to me last week I have caught up with your fighting game content. I have some ideas for future videos, there's quite a few (if you've heard some before I apologise). So reaction ideas:
- Samurai Shodown (2019) all character trailers
- Samurai Shodown (2019) all super and rage moves
- Soul Calibur 6 al critical edges, intros and win poses
- All Tekken 3 endings
- All Tekken 5 endings
- All Tekken Tag Tournament 2 endings
- Street Fighter X Tekken trailers (be careful pretty sure they contain copyrighted music)
- All Tekken opening cinematics (that being the thing that plays wen you turn on the game before you get to the main menu)
- All Soul Calibur opening cinematics
I know thats alot of suggestions but while binging your content I didn't want to suggest a thing here and there as it came to mind, so decided to write a list of them. Videos for these things should be easy to find but for samsho character trailers all I could find was a playlist of all trailers and not a video of them spliced together but shouldn't be too much difference.
I'm loving all the fighting game content, I look forward to seeing more :)
Welcome! Glad you caught up on the videos and appreciate all the recommendations! And yes, bummer that the Street Fighter x Tekken cinematics are copyrighted. Still trying to figure out a way around that while still experiencing it 🧐
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I hope you can figure something out, but even if you can't there's tonnes of other fighter game stuff to react to that I'm sure people will love to see
I hope you guys play this game it is quite fun and has a story that you guys might like
Ps. I don’t know if you guys would like to react to music or not but I would love it if you reacted to this soundtrack.
Plus since it’s a game soundtrack you don’t need to worry about copyright as mich
Hell yeah they should listen to the soundtrack it is motherf@#$ing hardcore.
We like that fighting games are incorporating story modes now 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames I enjoy it as well because not only do you get action but you also get lore and details about your favorite characters. Also I loved your guys reactions and I hope that one day I can find someone to share something like this channel with like you two do. I wish you all the best
I love happy chaos. He’s the strongest magic user in existence can break the 4rth wall and address the player and literally only causes chaos in the story mode for “the drama”. All of that and he chooses to just use a gun. A great character
This was fun. Had some unexpected picks like Ken going for Ky and Milia and Beth going for Sol, Nagoriyuki & Potemkin.
It also sucks that the trailers for the characters in the base roster were so short and had no dialogue from the characters.
We would’ve liked them to be longer but they were still very enjoyable and we had fun with this draft 🙂
A lot of people mentioned to react to the character theme songs for good reason, GG lore is confusing but the songs do a good job of expressing the characters feeling, struggles or backstory
Ah nice. So the songs give lore so we don’t need go into the lore to understand or appreciate them? 🤔😀
I wouldn’t say it like that, more like every character song has lyrics describes them, From May (the girl with the anchor) is about her love for Jonny( the guy with sun glasses from the Xrd game) or Leo Whitefang that is about survival’s guilt
It's finally here!
🥳🥳
Neat. I would recommend reacting to character music themes. They are pretty good.
We plan to check those out at some point 🙂
Yeah most of those characters appeared in your GGXrd Instakills reaction video. Remember that?
We’ve seen so many now, and we do remember checking out the supers from earlier game, but it takes a bit for characters to sink in for us 🤗
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Welp, buckle in then cuz you're staying for the long ride on the long run... 😏
Hope the other suggestions get their due... 😉 😜
Since you watched this if IF you are curious about the characters...there is a video "What does each strive character theme mean?" By Gekkosquirrel... That's pretty cool and touches on each character well.
We’ve been told the character themes/songs are where it’s at with this franchise 😀
So...as I said on the Xrd All Instakills video, here's the story recap:
Sol Badguy is a former scientist and half-Gear who studied the creation of biomechanical weapons of mass destruction named Gears. He's pretty much immortal and ages very slowly.
Ky is his friend from the Crusades against Gears and the one who helped him destroy Justice.
Aria is Sol's girlfriend which That Man transformed her into a gear named Justice just to piss Sol off.
Dizzy is Justice's daughter but she didn't appear in this game. Aria would then be later resurrected as Jack-O since her DNA was used to create Ramlethal Valentine (alongside Elphelt and the original Valentine which the latter Sol destroyed).
That Man is Sol's scientist colleague turned antagonist...though his goals are as noble as they are mysterious....
Chipp Zanuff is the Japan-obsessed druggie turned Japan-obsessed US president (with Answer as his staff manager)
May - Johnny's second in command of the Jellyfish Pirates crew.
Testament - The gear who was obsessed with taking Dizzy away from Johnny's crew. He looks pretty dapper here.
Faust is the flawless doctor who went mad once a little girl died and he went on a rampage. From what we see so far this is him (as Dr. Baidhead) before he found out the truth of the girl being assassinated.
Axl Low - The Time traveler from the past who is Raven's alter ego.
Potemkin - Subordinate of Gabriel who is a friend of Slayer and the leader of the flying nation named Zepp. He was freed from enslavement by Gabriel.
Leo Whitefang - Him with Ky co-rule a nation.
I-No - That Man's subordinate and Sol's rival.
Baiken - Hates Gears and That Man. Lost her arm and eye as a young girl...when the gears attacked..
Anji Mito - A Japanese person who escape the reservation/colony of his country to fight.
- Millia Rage and Zato-1(leader) are assassins from the Assassin Guild founded by Slayer and Venom loves Zato-1 as well.
The new characters that didn't appear in any Guilty Gear game prior to this:
Nagoriyuki - He's a vampire samurai
Goldlewis Dickinson - No introduction needed.
Happy Chaos - Could possibly be Bedman resurrected after he lost the fight against Venom and Robo-Ky and after being betrayed by the main villain in Xrd 2...ending with him turned to stone and dust since he couldnt be awake in real life due to his condition. He has a younger sister named Delilah.
Giovanna - No intro needed. Her wolf's cool tho.
Also Ragna vs Sol DB explains this better...
Though wouldn't be surprised if Happy Chaos is That Man going berserk. They kinda look the same...him and Bedman.
You know you are badass when no intro is needed 😁😎🤟
yall should to a reaction video to all the starter guides for guilty gear strive characters uploaded by arcsystemwork to get a breakdown on the character's move set/playstyle and ultimates.
Thanks for the vid recommendation 🙂
Axl uses twin kama on rope( kama is small scythe in japanese) used for farming but turned into weapons for self defense....and i kinda loved Giovana's Design....first few female fighters with simple look yet pulls of the...i dare say it....SEXY LOOK.....and wolf spirit is a bonus a good puppy indeed...Ramethal is like using her mind or some magic link to her weapons.......
Bethany taking ino is really funny. Ino is really really crass. She's one of the reasons the game is M
😯🤗
Guilty gear strive and xrd are rated T while accent core plus r has both a M rating and T rating depending on where you look.
if you want a good way to find out what the characters are like and where they are during strive i recommend listening to their themes (with lyrics)
Yup. We plan on checking those out eventually 🙂
Guys it would be great if you saw the pilot chapter of hazbin hotel and please see the credits since the names of the voice actors appear along with an image of their character and so you can see who gives the voice to your favorite character and There is also a post-credits scene.
Guilty gear is my favorite fighting game series because of the gameplay and music
Don't forget about the visuals
😎🤟
@@aaronatkinson3050 yessir!
Fun fact, Testament, the top hatted grim reaper at the very end, is recognized as non-binary in the canon. Thought you'd be interested in learning that. 83
Thanks! 😀
Guilty Gear is very much a rock album with a game attached to it. Also has great design on characters too.
😎🤟
hopefully yall will watch the Super attacks videos lol
also, fun fact, Sol Badguy is not his actual name. it is an Alias. his real name is Frederick Bulsara.
Freddy Mercury fan we heard 😀😎🤟 We will check out the supers down the road 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames woo! Also. I don't know if you remember one of my previous suggestions/recommendations but I feel like yall would get a kick out of the disgaea series and it's crazy attack skill animations.
Oh! Also, Super Robot Wars attack animations. Specifically SRW Alpha 3, SRW OG2 any of the PS4 versions.
I don't know if either of you have ever heard of super robot Warriors by among the giant robot community it is a game that is well known for its absolutely ridiculous attack animations and I think you both would really enjoy it
The whole saying is "mankind knew they could not change society, so instead of reflecting apon themselves they blamed the beast, but they found beauty in the lives of beast and couldn't lie to themselves about any more". From the games theme song Smell of the game
Baiken sheathed her sword with her mouth cause she only has one arm and still kicks butt.
😎🤟 badass 😁
The entire guilty gear franchise is built on Rock and Roll. All the characters and the names of their moves are based on real life rock and roll songs and bands. The creator of the series even makes the rock and roll soundtrack himself.
😎🤟
Ken snatching up Ramlethal, Happy Chaos and Baiken might give him some of the strongest guys in the series
Nice! 😁💪
I know you guys have done a bunch of Strive stuff, but have you considered watching the Strive story trailer? It's pretty nutty.
This is actually the only GG strive one we have done. So we wouldn’t mind checking out more 🙂
We need the theme reactions lmfao 🤣, pleeeease
We have been gathering info and playlists on some good videos featuring the themes 😁
Great video
😎🤟🥳
I really like the work of Arc System, they really put effort into their games, next time maybe you can react Dragon Ball FighterZ intro and Victory pose or the trailers but that trailers are very short hahaha
We plan to do the intros and victory poses for some DBFZ 😁
11:59
Angry Bethany 😠😠😠 I feel like this is some get back from the KOF XV draft. 😁
😂
You guys should really do another one of these, there’s plenty of new characters and a new character has also recently been released.
Another one of my favorite franchises!
😎🤟
Funny how none of them question Testament's body and his/her voice
🤗
Bethany, you look different somehow! Did you change your hair?
And I can't believe that you two took so long to decide on whether or not you wanted Ramlethal! As soon as I see those two ginormous, telekinetically wielded swords of hers, I want to play her _so_ much! Slicing and dicing anyone who gets in her face is just a bonus. 😁
(What else was a bonus? Watching you two have that little back-and-forth spat over Nagoriyuki! Ken, you really shouldn't make her angry like that! 😆)
