@@TweetyTv-iv3be Idk if you finished it after all, your comment is about 1 year old by now, but just in case or if someone else is reading this: You're going to feel like the game is about to end and then you'll realize that was like 20% of the main story lol
I guess Chibiterasu will never make another appearance huh, or is the adventure finally at the sacred plane that Ammy and Wakka gone into? I'm going to miss Issun if that happens.
@@velvetsparrow Waka's a mythological Tao Master, as in a manipulator of life energy to use supernatural abilities, as in the same junk as Dragonball Z but more refined.
+Kalithar Well, he's a Taoist, and Taoism revolves around the concept of qi or life energy. And a lot of popular culture sprung up around tales of manipulation of qi to perform superhuman feats (Such as the Dragon Ball franchise)
I like this song not only for the fact of how awesome it sounds, but how creatively they used the instruments. Everything is timed just perfectly, and comes in carrying its own melody. By the end of the song, there's an entirely different feel. There are parts that feel energetic, hopeful, and even sad, still using the same instruments. That's pretty awesome to be in one song, if you ask me.
"Ah... Amaterasu. Origin of all that is good and mother to us all... For too long, I, Kazegami, god of wind, have walked a shadowed path. At last, light shines upon me. Use my power to manipulate the wind! BANISH THOSE WHO WOULD SEEK TO SHROUD THIS WORLD IN DARKNESS!"
Ah i just love that sentence "Ah... Amaterasu. Origin of all that is good and mother to us all..." its like a prayer and a salutation to her, it really shows that she is truly a god.
@@Kurisu545 also how her power is to make sun rises and beautiful flowers bloom at her feet wherever she goes. It makes me feels good to play as her :D
Definitly one of the best fighting songs ever, it just has so chaos imbedded into it. As for this "wig debate" that seems to be going on, maybe he just wanted to hide his blonde hair, wasn't that a trademark of the moon tribe? Wait a second, if you haven't gotten past Sei-an city don't read any further. But Kaguya(bamboo girl) has blonde hair too, and she had a spaceship. Do you think she was a member of the Waka's tribe too? That'd be one crazy twist! XD
I'm pretty sure it's confirmed by the game that both Waka and Kaguya are members of the Moon Tribe. Whether or not they're from the same family, clan, or whatever, is up for debate.
@@lunalgaleo1991 Kaguya is definitely part of the moon clan, considering her rabbit ear things on her and how rabbits in japan are associated with the moon.
This is a super old comment, but it's mentioned in the complete works artbook that Waka hid his hair because he was the last survivor of the Ark of Yamato genocide, and Yami was searching for him the whole time. So he had to try and hide his identity while waiting for Amaterasu to return.
As mentioned, it is mentioned in the artbooks that Waka and Kaguya are members of the Moon Clan. It's also alluded to in the sequel Chibiterasu during Yamato's son's section and their exploration of the arc. It could also he explocitly mentioned, but I don't recall
Gosh, I remember being obsessed with Waka when I first played this game. I was about 13-14 years old at the time and I'm turning 22 soon. Wild how time flies.
augment96- It's because he spoke English in the Japanese version, which made him sort of a pretty-boy sounding guy. So, the English equivalent would be French. ^^
Tbh, furball would make for a great assist trophy if anything. Think about it, you summon her, time freezes, and she uses a random brush technique. i.e. Spawning a giant firework bomb, blowing your competitors off the stage, slashing through the middle of the stage, planting a tree that shoots opponents upwards etc.
Sanderooh Oohhh to add to that, she can appear as either her weaker form, the one we play as in Okami, or she appears as Okami Shiranui at full power. I'd love to see that golden brush unleash powerful attacks lol
Oh, so there'd be a rare chance she'd appear as Shiranui, similar to legendary pokémon from regular pokéballs? And there could be a really small chance to get Issun, who would just make some lame jokes and then leave, similar to Resetti :>
I hated this dude when I first played. I was convinced he was evil until the Ark of Yamato. Then he became one of my favorite characters from this game.
Waka is hilariouis I think. I absolutely love his hand gestures. That, and I like how they made his motives highly questionable throughout much of the game. Really made you wonder who's side he was on.
1:28 this part is completely sick, just wow, we really feel the traditional japanese culture in it, I get shivers just by listening to this entire musical masterpiece
Okami is a ancient japanese folklore kinda watercolor asthetic sorta game. Waka is a british (french in the american and og version) moon sultier who plays the flut and fits in perfectly...until he pulls his laser swort. He has an ancient japanese katana and a god danmed laser swort. And I can not stress this enogh...he fights you...with BOTH!
Is it just me who thought Waka's fight was freakin' hard?! Seriously, i must have died at least 10 times when i first played against him. The funny thing is that i didin't die once the whole rest of the game.
+david e I know! I nearly rage quit, thinking he was an actual boss who was way too hard. Then I finally beat him and took him out my first try the second time you battle. Waka will have a place in my heart for being one of the hardest battles I ever dealt with for some reason.
+david e It's probably because Waka is the first enemy with whom you HAVE to strategize a little to make the battle easy. Until that point, you can beat pretty much any enemy with no problem regardless of how you approach them.
david e Best strategy is to keep him at bay once you get the prayer beads. I hate using the shield for its short range and the glaives because it takes a second to start up, leaving you vulnerable. I may or may not have used golden rage on him a couple times.
+yutzu hush There's an HD version out for the PS3, which I am actually just about a PS3 only for mostly that haha since I want to see how the graphics change from the PS2 version to it. We're in similar boats.
tcrpgfan You would be a terrible businessman if that's your logic. If they released a remake more people would buy it for the higher cost because better graphics. Humans are stupid (and don't say you're an exception, we humans are all idiots in the grand scheme of things) enough to buy that stuff... including me I'd totally buy an Okami remake.
DarkMagolor Even then considering what I know about how well okami sold, a remake is just not feasible. Okami sold only just over a million units across three consoles over the course of seven years. Most AAA titles sell that much in just over four months. A remake of okami just wouldn't sell.
Minamoto-no-Yoshitsune is the Japanese best hero who existed on the history. Yoshitsune was beauty and shorter man like the woman. Yoshitsune won in Genpei-War by an unique tactics. However, his older brother was afraid of him and murdered it. Because Yoshitsune was loved by a Japanese, innumerable legends about him are recited to date.
May we meet again soon, Waka
And may we dance once more, Waka
May you wield Pillow Talk once more, Waka
Waka: I will fight you.
Issun: WHY? Ammy did nothing wrong.
Waka: *screams in french and turns his flute into a sword*
Sílvia i have the game in french, what is he saying in french ?
@@K1LL3R268 well he tends to say "ma chérie" to ammy all the time.
also the obvious ones "Oui" "Bonjour" etc
The funny thing is, in German he speaks screams in english.
Waka in the non English versions of Ōkami: **screaming in English**
Waka in the English version of Ōkami: **screaming in French**
Yea pretty much
I understand why his sword is called Pillowtalk.
Because it sings you to sleep. Permanently.

Waka is the greatest lightsaber-wielding, flute-playing, french-speaking, slightly-psychic, fruitcake-badass ever.
Fruitcake?
I dunno, but I can agree to everything else, though.
I dunno about fruit cake, but he reminds me of plums and cherry blossoms.
Sure, why not. ;)
hes a great person
I'd kill for a flute that turns into a lightsaber.
I always thought a normal blade extended from the flute, it just glows green because... moon tribe

よく見ると2人の表情がどことなく楽しそうなのがまたいい…

+Friendly Claw “Jokivirta” Best game ever
I really love both this kind of old Japanese culture and the culture they have in modern Japan.

I love that Waka’s attribute to being a mysterious character is “oui oui! I’m FRENCH!”
It'll take two to tango in Ōkami II.
WE'RE SO BACK ☀️🔥🔥🔥

I don't know what, but there's something about this song I just truly adore...
How about everything? :D
I saw and held my first wooden flute 15 years ago. I still want to own one after years of flute playing.
Waka is hilariouis I think. I absolutely love his hand gestures. That, and I like how they made his motives highly questionable throughout much of the game. Really made you wonder who's side he was on.
