Ah Julius, the most powerful Belmont, the one who made Dracula die so hard he had to RE-INCARNATE to come back, he uses Grand Cross and makes the WHOL DAMNED CASTLE start BREAKING APART in the background. After the fight? "you were holding back..." "...yeah, I was."
Julius is fantastic, but he wasn't alone in that fight. Alucard and Japanese Shinto priests were present and assisted in sealing Dracula's castle in the solar eclipse so the 100-year cycle of resurrection would be broken.
I wonder how many here people know the first part of the remix is from a 1987 arcade Castlevania game called Haunted Castle. The track is called “Don’t Wait Until Night.” Great remix BTW!!!
Funny enough, "夜まで待てない" (Can't wait Until Night) is the actual name of the song (Even the Aria of Sorrow and Harmony of Despair/Smash Ultimate ones), "Heart of Fire" specifically refers to the NES/Famicom track. However people still use "Heart of Fire" internationally.
@@elneco4654 Blame Konami for doing the same. Both the Dominus and Advance collections call it "Heart of Fire". Even the origina Haunted Castle track (which was weird of them).
I just can't believe it. One of my favourite tracks from Castlevania got remixed in this DLC. And it sounds freaking awesome!! Thank you so much for your continuous hard work!! I'm waiting impatiently to play this Ode
@@BknMoonStudios I checked a wiki: "In the Japanese version of Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Soma was specifically indicated to have originated in Japan, while in the international versions, he was indicated to be a transfer student from an unspecified country outside of Japan. However, in the Grimoire of Souls Western script, it is again confirmed that he is indeed from Japan, making it now canon overseas."
I love how Heart of Fire is a medley made up of two older Castlevania tracks, both bangers in their own way but combined make what is the definitive Belmont theme, this song screams determination, fitting for the one who slays Dracula once and for all, Julius.
_Antonio's Notes on Interdimensional Allies: Julius Belmont_ "Seemingly the _only_ member of the Belmont clan to have actually killed a vampire definitively. Frustratingly, nobody cares to share any details about this 'War of 1999' where he performed the deed. Why are the details so sparse? Doesn't it seem like critical information to share???"
Dawn of Sorrow's library actually tells that Julius was able to permanently kill Dracula thanks to the Hakuba priests who separated his soul from his castle and sealed it inside the eclipse.

This comment was stolen wholesale from someone more creative than me. However, much like the Belmont's, its legacy must live on. "Let me tell you about Julius Belmont. Dracula was the incarnation of all evil guaranteed to resurrect at least once a century, until he met Julius. When Julius Belmont ices a bitch, he stays dead.

Years later you get to play as Twinkula disciplining your pet castle and wannabe Dracula trying to fill the power vacuula. And it's all pretty tame until you meet Julius FUCKING Belmont, who is pretty FUCKING sure he said No Draculas. Some of you may remember the next part, because if you were young it's where you got your ass kicked to the sound of Julius' personal ass kicking mix. And once you think you've got him down he just uses Grand Cross, instantly kills you, and rips apart the castle in the background just because. So you finally get through all that and become Top Drac, only for Soma's bat-senses to kick in and he comes to a realization: "This motherfucker is sandbagging" "This is the hardest fight in the game and it's just Julius giving up because he feels sorry for me" "This is what Julius throwing a fight looks like" Julius is like "Sorry I only feel comfortable killing vampires not Japanese women" and Soma doesn't correct him, just runs off to punch the castle in the snout until it behaves because Jesus Christ you stony prick you're going to get me killed. And everything's fine until cultists try to get their hands on Dracula's stash again in Dawn of Sorrow. There you have to use touch screen to seal bosses or they'll resurrect indefinitely. Without sealing magic, you can't just murder bosses so hard so hard they don't come back--unless you're Julius Fucking Belmont. Fuck your touchscreen gimmicks, Belmont says. How old is Julius during the games? Late fifties. This is what old and busted Julius Belmont looks like. Julius Belmont in his prime cannot be depicted, for no game can contain him."
Ah, Julius... The reason the Vampire Survivors haven't found a single Vampire... not even their remains.
Soma is there right? A vampire.

every castlevania song is a banger to some degree. its downright illegal to make a bad castlevania song
@@shelbybunnylike Harmony of Dissonance
Normies are finally introduced to some good fucking food.
I think Smash Bros did that first.
Julius had this remix in his Walkman when he climbed up the stairs for his final Dracula battle in 1999.
And then had to stop midway up the stairs cuz the tape got stuck.
@@Sperium3000Batteries running out, too. So many pitstops at the local station for backups.
In 1999 the Walkman was going out of style, the Discman was all the rage
@@Yarott75maybe Hammer brought a supply of batteries
Party like it’s the Battle of 1999!

you forgot the part where he's also HOT AS FUCK.
Oh it's the Aria of Sorrow one that has "Don't wait until night" AND the NES1 "Heart of Fire." WE'RE EATING GOOD with this OST
I wonder how many here people know the first part of the remix is from a 1987 arcade Castlevania game called Haunted Castle. The track is called “Don’t Wait Until Night.” Great remix BTW!!!
for some reason, in the dominus collection, they called dont wait until night “heart of fire”

Julius on his way to beat Dracula's ass and turning the dark lord into a Japanese twink.
Isn't Soma an exchange student from South America? 🤔

Evelyn has already mastered Heart of Fire
I was really hoping this would be a track on here. These are some of the best Castlevania remixes ever
The manliest remix for the manliest Belmont!!!
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
One of Castlevania's best tracks. So hype it's gonna be in with Julius!
Honestly I think this is the best version of Heart of Fire that I have EVER heard.
WE KILLIN DRACULA WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥
Yesssssssss🎉🎉 this is the song I’ve been waiting for! Glad to hear that it’s a banger supreme
Okay, who else was sitting here hoping poncle would drop another song on us? 😂
Seriously though this is WONDERFUL, oh my God -
Julius......... Berumondoooooooo!
Somacula fight was the coolest addition they made to any of the alt-character modes in the post-GBA games.
I can hear Soma's evil laugh just by reading this

What Dracula heard in 1999 while Julius powerwalked his way up to the throne room:
Julius doesn't do the Belmont powerwalk.
@@DarthEnderX he did in 1999, we just have to see it
My heart was set on fire the moment i saw this!
here comes trouble elmo, you see the stop sign?
it's a vampire crossing sign, better watch your steps.
:O
Was that the Whipcrack of 1999? - Markiplier
1:05 Do my ears deceive me? Is that a theremin?
Imagine, if you will, a middle-aged vampire hunter
THANK YOU! This is the one song I was waiting to hear! Julius is my favorite Belmont and you have absolutely delivered with his theme.
Poncle out here like DJ Kaled: Another One
Julius: I LIVE.
Simon: I had this theme first. *And I just got a new game.*
This rendition of Heart of Fire never plays in any of Simon's games.
Shame we never got Julius's fight with Dracula game.
Castlevania is the only series I know of where the hypest chapter still has yet to be made. Some day, maybe Konami might bless us.
This song must be how it feels to cause an ancient evil castle to crumble with a single attack.
Poncle spoiling us with all these remixes
This is a mix of 2 different songs.
"Don't Wait Until Night" from Haunted Castle and "Heart of Fire" from Castlevania 1
Thank you very very much.
This one is really fire! ❤🔥
Poncle continues to cook us food! 🍲
Such a great track for such a great character.
The only good thing that came out of Haunted Castle that was remixed for Aria of Sorrow.
Music so good it’s making me go Julius mode
夜まで待てない
The more fire they drop the more I want it
JULIUS BELMONT IS BEST BELMONT
AND THIS SLAPS
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Julius mode engaged!
JULIUS LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Only 90s kids will remember this banger playing while the dark lord died so he could reincarnate into a Japanese twink
Spanish Twink, likely, "Cruz" isn't exactly a Japanese surname.
@@keithfilibeck2390Kurusu is the real name. The translation team fucked up big time

To be fair, those 90s kids wouldn't know because WE NEVER GOT THAT DAMN 1999 GAME.
Julius! My man!
There it is! can't have Julius without HoF
uh..I love these remixes but is that Zero's theme from Megaman X mixed in there near the beginning most noticeably
