Cloud's worst nightmare: Having to fight off 7 Sephrioths while the shirtless one is always the one that gets the final hit in.
Make Cloud permanently small and we have a trauma to add to the pile.
Pentacontakaihexaslash
And you can make that happen right here on Smash Bros. Just set the one winged angle squad to the highest level with no smash ball or items to get in the way and make it a team battle. Let the nightmare fuel burn. 😂
Yeah... That was pretty much the stream live lol
I’m so glad I caught that on stream.
Sakurai has gone on record saying that he won't add in a character if he can't do them justice.
*He fucking **_nailed it_** with Sephiroth.*
Right mindset to do anything.
And then we learned Marx wasnt fully realized in the game as a boss....
Then Explain Geno that character got shitted on so bad that Geno Fans (like myself) are having a hard time accepting he's not in smash
@@silverdragoon27 What would Geno have gotten as a full-formed character that the Mii Gunner moveset wouldn't have already covered sufficiently?
@@silverdragoon27 your statement is contradictory how come he shittin on geno when he is not even in the game lol, the ts even saying about how sakurai will do justice to every char that he put in in the game, talk like that when geno really in the game
Next DLC character can be unlocked early if you beat their game lol
@@TheUltimateMachineGod if Soul of Cinder or Solaire got in I'd scream
Yeah that would be cool lol
Goomba from the Mario universe comin’ through.
Watch the next character be from the Demon's Souls remake
I hear Dr. Eggman's name getting thrown in. I see Sakurai is adding more villains this time round. Ridley, K. Rool, Dark Samus, Piranha Plant, Wolf and now Sephiroth.
"Sephiroth is not for children"
- Max 2020
Sephiroth is a Mai fan
Any sane person is
he is for advence children tho
Watching Max gush at the music in the menu is just wholesome
His eyes light up and is close to tears.
@@FlameJackstar ngl anyone including me will tear up hearing this nostalgic theme. its like a callback when cloud and tifa found out the crew dint left them at the highwind
I’m not even the biggest FF7 fan and hearing that remix took me back
I felt right at home listening to that theme
Yeah, i never played the game at the time myself, and i was also stunned by how good it sounded. Its probably one of the best tracks made for smash ultimate.
Between Max acting surprised when he unlocked Sephiroth on easy, several tweets and YT comments saying they thought the ability to unlock Sephiroth early had been cancelled, and multiple reaction videos either also thinking the whole idea had been dropped or missing the fact that you could unlock him entirely, I'm starting to wonder how many people had actually paid attention to that stream.
Most people were just spamming chat and being hype, rightfully so
Yea I didn’t know we could unlock him from mode. I thought it was something for fun mode to fight him, that’s it lmao
i missed the part where he said that they scrapped the part where it was one chance any difficulty. i initially thought it was one chance on very hard. kinda wish i unlocked him on very hard and not normal but oh well.
I think it was just worded weirdly or not clear enough
@@DanOwnsall112 how is not clear " If u defeat him, you get him" how is that not clear?
Sephiroth still blows my mind, he looks amazing, has amazing music with his addition and is insanely fun. Plus on top of that Sakurai really knew Sephiroth's status in pop culture and he did it, he made him a special boss!!! Smash Ultimate is definitely one of the best games ever made!!!
Maybe it’s because he made sure they did such an amazing job that I still can’t believe Sephiroth is actually in Smash Bros. Seriously. Still in that disbelief phase.
@@Hibernial I wonder who'll be next to top his reveal!
Who could have guessed a guy with Sonic in his name has shit taste in games?
@Sonic 2013 bad bad bad b8 my guy
@Sonic 2013 The hell? Why are you being so toxic?
“This probably won’t take very long.”
**Unlocks Sephiroth after beating him on easy.**
Max: “FUUUUUUUUUUUUU...”
ITS TOO EZ
*INSERT 7 SEPHIROTHS*
the only boss rage he couldn't surpass
Sephiroth: You underestimate my power
All of them with the FS Meter ON
Cloud: "Why is there One-winged angels overlapping One-winged angels in the background"
7 Sephiroth's show-up and one comes naked
7 Sephiroth's: Hello Cloud ready to feel despair
Cloud "ahhh shit"
@@petershirou892 He beat it last night.
"A weeb with power"
Sounds like a very motivated person
Virgil confirmed
@@goldzero1203 storm is approaching
Provoking black clouds and isolation
@@goldzero1203 - Why do you all get his name wrong? :'(
Maximilian dood : wait a sec just listen to the music
Listens for 15 minutes stright
He listened to the music more than 15 minutes
I mean if a music so good you spend 15 minutes bopping to it
*Cough* Streets of Rage 4 *Cough*
Let’s face it, we all did at some point, whether at the challenge select screen, My Music, or on the stages themselves.
@@myriadmediamusings true
@@SuperFusionAJ93 me but with the digimon cyber sleuth main theme.
It's almost confirmed that Sakurai's a closet Edgelord with what's known about Iori, Sephiroth, AND him wanting to make Marx creppier
Hideki Kamiya, beat your heart out!
And then he created Kirby
@@ShakeMilkyWay1 bruh if you know kirby lore, him being an edgelord is even less surprising.
@ Could'veBeenBetterProductions To be fair though, Kirby lore didn’t start getting super crazy until after he left.
Imagine showing someone back in the N64 days what the Smash roster would one day look like.
"What the fuck is a Steve"
"What fuck is a Wii fit trainer"
Imagine getting a dollar everytime you saw this comment
Or show the roster to someone the day the Sega Dreamcast launches to a hardcore Sega fan and wait tell they find out sonic is in it
@@guitarheroaddict12 "Wait... what happens to sega in the future? WHAT HAPPENS?!?!?"
Did you notice that just in Hard mode plays the Advent children version of One Winged angel? That was really nice :)
I believe the stage is Omega Mode on Very Hard as well. Love little details like that.
What I find funny is that thwack from the Hero actually works on him. That’s how I killed him in 26 seconds by complete accident.
I think someone employed the same strategy to kill him in less than 3 seconds xD I'll try to find the sauce.
Just finished VERY HARD with Cloud in 17 seconds
I did it that way too, but y took me 1 minute 26 seconds
@@nickharlow4464
I did it in 8 seconds
@@The_Vible same here. beat him as cloud in 7.86 seconds.
"I'm mad I'm not dying a lot."
Kingdom Hearts 1/2 spoiled us.
Did you mean KH1 and KH2 or KH0.5 'cause they have that too lol
*Catches Severe KH 1 Olympus Coliseum PTSD*
*Whilst hearing One-Winged Angel*
STOOOOOOOOOP. I swear that boss was impossible without strike raid
Maybe, I've never played Kingdom Hearts 1/2
@@mythicaldragon2686 Sephiroth is a super boss in them. He's not as bad in KH2, but he could oneshot and easily kill you in KH1 if you weren't properly leveled or skilled.
1:26 I love his reaction and stops to enjoy this new-added final fantasy music.
Hearing the music play when you choose the difficulty was amazing
The new music is actually breathtaking for me lul
It's not Aerith's theme, though.
max says later on that it was the new remix of the ff7 main theme
The new musical arrangements are fantastic. I love that Smash is contributing to so many games' musical legacies by adding new versions of classic songs.
yeah so many games unless you're a Final Fantasy without a 7 in the title :/
@@GameGodZERO So many other games, dingus. Not just Final Fantasy. (Edit: that was mean, sorry)
@@orion_shorts I mean lets look at all the other 3rd party characters in the DLC so far from big franchises.
Joker brought stuff from P3 and P4 as well as P5
Hero had music from 4 DQ, some costumes not tied to a single game, and every hero not playable is in the FS
Terry had 50 songs from across SNK's different games not just from Fatal Fury
Steve while more minor still had music from the spin-offs so it wasn't just base Minecraft represented
and then Final Fantasy gets nothing from anything other than 7, besides the Chocobo hat which isn't tied to a specific game. And I assume the Sephiroth spirit board will only have FF7 characters on it as well. They even finally implement a boss rush but have it locked to Sephiroth only.
@@GameGodZERO
It's not Smash's fault: Square is VERY stingy with their IPs. Cloud almost didn't return for Ultimate and it was likely a pain getting Sephiroth and the other songs, much less songs from other FFs and remixing THOSE too. It's just far too much to ask for. Ungrateful FF fans I swear. Getting angry when a poster game is treated like a poster game.
@@hadouradiance3566 I'm just tired of FF7 being the only game ever recognized for anything. Being a fan of literally any other FF game is suffering Especially with how basically no iconic aspects of the franchise are represented in Smash in any form unlike basically every other 3rd party in the roster.
Ultimate Sephiroth more damage, super armor, multiple phases/stocks and other improved stats. And finally a time limit to kill him before meteor falls.
Adding a time limit would defintley be great to match the stage.
Oh damn the time limit would fit perfectly for that stage. Somebody needs to get on that pronto
fr Very Hard is easy for me, an ultimate mode could be the craziest challenge in the game
Sounds like the remake's final battle
Sounds awesome. IMO I thought it would’ve been awesome if this mode gave Sephiroth a health bar like the game’s main bosses. Also if very hard had shirtless Seph and at around 25% hp gave him a final smash, just to add that “oh sh-“ intense/final boss feeling. Still a great mode that I wish would sit around in the vault or something because it’s so beautiful to look at and fun to mess around on.
I swear, Max's love and enthusiasm for FFVII is very contagious. It just radiates off of him like the aura of a super saiyan.
Max: Sephiroth is not for children.
Me at 30 years old: *Nods vigorously*
Does this mean I can’t use Sephiroth? ;x;
"But Max, it's for children!"
...
*"Sephiroth isn't for children."*
Truer words have seldom been spoken.
Sephiroth is for Final Fantasy 7 and because Sora will never be added, Kingdom Hearts fans
It's for edgy teenagers
@@KANDEN3000 Imagine losing your edge, smh
@AT Productions You... Have a good point... Hmm.
@AT Productions it's still a mass murderer, it's just a mass murderer making a cameo in a game with disney characters
You can just hang around on Max's stream and one day you'll gain a subscription thanks to his gambling addiction
Not to mention the chats, lmao
Not gonna lie, I didn't know what giftsubs actually were till earlier today (I don't really use twitch that often) so I always thought they were a bad thing
True, I have a 6 months sub and I have never paid for one myself lol
Depends how many people are there though. His 250 gift subs after Sakurai showing off Sephiroth had over 30k viewers. I'm sure he had a bunch of subs in there, but man is it easy to dodge 'em.
Aww man, i should know this earlier
Max: What?! That was too easy!
Sevenroth: Allow us to introduce ourselves
I’m not even a ff7 fan, and the music feels nostalgic and emotional to me. That’s how you know you have damn good pieces
I just noticed Max doesn’t have Hero and Min Min. Feels really weird not seeing it all filled in.
He atleast has to have Min Min because the Challenge was only available to those who bought the Fighters Pass.
Huh. Apparently he doesn't....that's weird.
@@Segvent well IT was stated that the challenge was available if you bought fighter pass 2 OR sephiroth only
So that may explain why he gets to play it
I want "Sephiroth is not for children" on a shirt for when in-person tourneys come back.
When holy and the life stream are hitting meteor with the stage animation, you can see like ghosts or floating bodies in and around the life stream
Marlene!
Max got a character he wanted multiple times for the past two Smash games
I mean, his most loved characters are from very popular franchises, so the chances were higher.
@@Kurisu545 true. I'm patiently waiting on Sora but my heart tells me Sephiroth was the highest negotiated character that Nintendo could afford.
@@MasutaMJ honestly i'd say it isn't even about what nintendo could afford. They could easily manage to put sora in just that they'd have to get permission from disney of all things.
@@jordanwalker3617 imagine that Disney copyright in the Smash credits. It might be disingenuous but if Goody and Donald can't cameo it won't be a total loss.
@@jordanwalker3617 if they put in sora, it would feel unfinished in a way since there's no way donald and goofy is also coming with him.
since there's an established rule about characters originating in a game or something.
Dude I teared up at the music bit at the beginning man. Love FF7 to death.
Yeah and you can tell how much Max loves it too. Not one of those people who says they love it and you can tell they dont mean it. With Max it's obvious from how much he loves to talk about ff7 that he's one of the real ones who truly loves it
@@darknesswave100 How can YOU tell they don't mean it? Don't be so sure about Max because you don't know him either. He didn't even play FF7 when it came out, he thought RPG's were "for nerds" at the time and eventually played it after it was already hailed by many as THE best game ever made. He says its his favorite game, but mentions nothing about any of the other FF's in the series (bar FF11). That is VERY peculiar and HIGHLY unusual... Especially when it's supposed to be his "all time favorite" game. I vaguely remember him stating he didn't start gaming really until the PS2 era. He's two years older than me, but I grew up playing all the games from the "golden era"... (these were all the RPG's on SNES and PS1 when RPG's were the biggest genre). You mean to tell me he missed all that? I've also noticed he misses details and tidbits even about FF7 that a die hard fan would know off top. Max doesn't even discuss the lore of FF7 at all... Just the surface level stuff. Don't be so quick to say others "don't mean it when they say they love it".... because you don't know them either. Max sheds a few tears in a viral FF7R reveal reaction video and all of the sudden he's the guru? Shit doesn't add up to be honest. Good guy, but I think he's a bit opportunistic when it comes to this FF7 thing. After all, people automatically think "Max" when FF7 comes up on social media now... Pretty shocking considering "RPG's are for nerds". And that statement is pretty consistent with him considering he has a gaming channel, but doesn't play any JRPG's.
Me too man.
I love when Max tries to show that the announcer only says the scary name with Sephiroth but does it with Ganondolf as well.
Not as much as Sephiroth tho xD
I was really hoping for Birth of a God! They don't respect that song enough man. Most underrated song of FF7
FACTS!
What about Jenova Absolute? That song is sick too!
I agree Bltzz, I agree indeed lol 😂
Finally someone agrees with me
@@nathan_drake1237 ayyye! I love seeing you guys here haha
Me, finding out that Sakurai used to be an Iori main: This does put a smile on my face.
Always has been. After all, out of all KOF characters he is the one to get a music track AND mii costume
@@residentlando yeah I remember that
Our edgy boy deserves all the care
@Nemesis King Negro Oh, I'm sorry. I just thought that since Max was knows a lot about competitive fighting games and stuff like that that I thought he was right.
@@Phantomistress363 whether or not he "mained" him or if there is evidence is not really important since Max was referring to the Terry direct where Sakurai said he loved Iori's design and thought his creator was a genius. I haven't watched that video since it came out a year ago to confirm if he said that Iori was his "main", but you can't blame Max for making that assumption.
Sakurai in Terry's presentation said that when he first saw Iori, he though that whoever disigned hiw was a Genius, so Sakurai really liked Iori's design.
11:11
I fucking love how the announcer just straight up GROWLS out Sephiroth's name, like HE'S the *real* big bad to watch out for.
Bro 1-shot Galeem so, yeah.
The music at the character select felt so fitting, I forgot nobou uimatsu composed the smash brawl theme, things came full circle 😊
He has a thing for Latin lyrics, it seems
If there isn't a smash-up of the two already, somebody got to make one.
“Sephiroth is not for children”
Not even... Advent Children?
I'll see myself out.
@@GoldLight73 No its fine. Come, I'll show you to the door.
Max’s reaction to this stuff in some way validates the feelings of so many of us.
Facts!!!!🤣🤣
You'll never see another game like Super Smash Bros Ultimate again, enjoy the moment everyone because it's something special.
Thank you Sakurai.
Seeing Max gushing so much during the music at the beginning put a huge smile on my face lol
Ridley killed samus's parents infront of her when she was a child.
And then sang it's the Circle of Life in front of her
Jaden Quest That sounds even darker tbh
Specifically, he ate them. Max's comments on Ridley are somewhat of a running gag from a couple of vids ago though.
Insert "but he only did it once" joke here
Yeah. Ridley and Sephiroth have literally killed people on screen. Ganondorf ain't even done that. At least I don't ever recall him doing so.
14:14 It's called Chuunibyou and it's quite common in otaku and fans of Japanese media.
It's been a dark time for the announcer. He's a smoker now that he says SEPHIROTH.
On a side note, the announcer did voice work for TeamFourStar's FF7 Machinabridged as Rufus Shinra.
If the Doomslayer gets in the announcer has to name him with the most guttural voice ever.
Remind you that's Joker.
@@AnotherCamilo Also if Doomslayer gets in, his trailer needs to have At Doom's Gate (Remix) play as well as a shot of him and Isabelle at Tortimer Island.
So you're saying Sephiroth's wing needs to be "clipped?" 😏
Cease
that made me lol
Listening to that theme on character select was like taking a deep breathe of fresh air, FILLS THE BODY.
That's not Aerith's theme at character select, lol... That's the main FFVII theme.
Exactly! I was like "did you even play FFVII ???" lol jk jk
I attribute it more to a slip. Max knows, lol
Sometimes fans really just fuck up at the most obvious shit lmaooo 😭
Cut him some slack guys lol he’s freaking out.
Literally, my favorite part of watching Max's Content is seeing him just overjoyed at things. Helps me feel almost just as happy as him just seeing his reaction.
They should made a new difficulty: The "Cry salty tears" mode. Using the original lv. 9 difficulty before it got patched aka nerfed.
13:05 That musical upwelling right as Holy emerges from the cave.
Stamina, Spirits, Master balls, and assist trophies with Final Smash meter. Taking down a 750% Sephiroth with demon-style Akuma alongside 2 other teammates in a 3v1 battle is still too tough for me, lol.
Anime has those characters that are "Edgelord to the point of comedy but I'm sure in Japan there are people that find them unironically cool?"
Sakurai is one of those people that finds them unironically cool. You always get that vibe from his work. Metaknight was how he got his inner edgelord into Kirby.
7:35 I swear the Sephiroth dash danced
13:02 felt like crying at this point. That camera work with Aerith's theme is SO GOOD
1:23 And thus begins the beautiful expressive display of love. His tears had me in tears
Max:Sephiroth is not for children
Sephiroth:this puts a smile on my face
"He's a weeb with power." The most accurate description of what's going. Fantastic and I love it!
This music was made during the covid era, guys. Phenomenal.
"We have to find a way to make it challening"
Oh boy... About 10 hours of Severoth later, I bet he regrets those words.
In the intro he got hit with the "Nothing personal kid."
Then at the very end he does the same thing XD Seph doesn't even go flying he just falls to the ground after a quick slash, it was perfect.
I think Sakurai turned Super Smash Bros. Ultimate into an ode to gaming as a whole, every character gets so much love put into it, it's crazy.
I truly appreciate how far this series has come to, and I'm already dying in anticipation to know what will become of it in the next iterations.
Seeing Max get teased with FFVII remake for years and then getting this much FFVII content dumped on him in such a short timespan really makes me smile, his hype is so wholesome :D
13:05
Perfect timing with the music
The osts mixed in with the Smash theme is so hype.
Super late, but the way I would have done it would have been like this:
1. Beat Easy -- Unlock the music (for use in Cloud's stage)
2. Beat Normal -- Unlock the stage + the music
3. Beat Very Hard -- Unlock everything
I LOVE that the first three minutes is just Max enjoying the amazing music!!!😂👍🏼
Max says Sakurai is not just a weeb but "A weeb with power". My kind of weeb.
the music timing at 13:01 is just amazing
I think a single tear of joy run down Max’s face during the remix theme ❤️
I really like that the One-Winged Angel theme has the same tempo as the count down, so they're synced on offbeats and it's epic for absolutely no reason LOL. I love stuff like that.
I mean... Sakurai DID say that he indeed turned down the difficulty.
For those *FILTHY CASUALS.*
Sephiroth too EZ, please buff.
If you noticed, it seems that in Easy and Normal mode (5:19) it plays the original One Winged Angel, while in Very Hard it plays the Advent Children version (6:56)
«but Max, it’s for children, hehehe»
«Sephiroth is not for children»
Me: well, he’s got a point there
Love how they use the Advent Children version of Sephiroth's them for Very Hard
10:27-10:34
Every Kingdom Hearts fan when there's no critical mode.
This is why I wish Boss Sephiroth has other stuff like:
-crazy stats (one f-tilt does 80% damage, for example)
-permanent wing mode
-Exclusive moves (ie. Meteor)
Saw a guy clear very hard by keeping ground slapping with DK
I love the detail that Easy and Normal challenges play the Smash Mix of One Winged Angel while V-Hard plays the Advent Children Version, which escalates the stress even more.
Max plays with Cloud: “Ah, I see you are a man of culture as well.”
Wow, the music really takes me back to Christmas break 1997! Just grinding through disc 1-2 before school starts back up.
I’ve never heard Max Dood scream like that before... 🤣
"He's too easy"
VH Sephiroth
"You gon' learn today"
Cool to see CLoud and Sephiroth from Ergheiz: God Bless The Ring make it to Smash
God Max having that 3 minutes of absolute inner peace hearing the FF7 theme remix at the start? I don't even care much for FF7, but that flow of emotions is a joy to watch
Okay, someone explain to me how it took Mew2king like ten tries to beat Sephiroth Challenge on Very Hard, but it took only two tries for Max?
Tf is up with that lol
@LegendaryKenchi idk man, he was playing as Cloud too though
Who cares what his main is, the point is, Max isn't even a competitive Smash player, but he picks Cloud and wins in two tries. M2k takes like ten tries w/ the same character. Unless you're saying Max's Cloud could beat M2k's Cloud (which would be kinda ridiculous on its own), I don't see why M2k's main would even matter at this point.
@LegendaryKenchi ???I never said that??? And why tf would I say M2k needs to get good lmao, he's a Smash champion
I wouldn't even bring him up if he wasn't
@@genm4827 If I had to guess, same reason lots of pros get hopped by cpu in arcades. Humans make mistakes, the computer you have to manipulate. If your experience is mostly humans you'd not pick up how to work the cpu.
@@ReikuYin Yeah, I was thinking across those lines a bit. M2k says that Very Hard Sephiroth was harder than the people he plays against online and that Very Hard Sephiroth has like, one frame reaction times or whatever, but maybe the logic in fighting against humans is drastically different from fighting CPUs, like you say. It's a weird thing to think about lol
I would have done the same thing at Stage Select by listening to the music. "Sephiroth is not for children!" Haha
Remembering doing the challenge with cloud. Got seph down to literally 0.4%, then he got ME down to 0.3% and won. >~
'I will never be a memory'
Btw the new remixes are done by legendary composers! Main theme is done by Motoi Sakuraba "Tales series,star ocean,Valkyrie profile,dark souls 1 & many" Aerith theme is done by okabe "nier" and Cosmo canyon is by yoko!! "Kingdom hearts,Parasite eve, XBC1" that's why these remixes are this good 😩👌🔥
“Power Weeb!!!”
2:06 That smile may be my new screensaver
I just like how much love this man has for FF7 and everything related to it :D
The very second I heard that remix of the main theme of FFVII, I knew we were in for something special.
Max literally true fan of FF7. I love the remix so much that I’m actually wanted more FF7.
Sakurai thought about the children. That's why he allowed it to be unlocked on Easy. He's such a kind man 😁
This is what I wanted since I was a child. All my childhood dreams are coming true. First FF7 Remake, and now Sephiroth In smash. I’m 12 all over again.
I freaking love how the Easy and Normal difficulty have classic One-Winged Angel playing and Very Hard has the Advent version. I didn’t notice till this video, since I went straight to Very Hard like a champ.
okay 13:05 was just epic. the music lined up perfectly with the background, and Max's reaction was a beauty to behond
So is this like an un-official boss rage?
Boss Nuisance then?
Hows this a Boss rage If he won in 2 tries?
It always warms my heart to see you get so giddy with excitement when you nerd out on FF7 or the FGC. Sakurai playing KOF'98 competitively is news to me and only adds to my appreciation of the man. I used to play that shit for ages.
"[Sakurai] is a weeb with power!"
But he's Japanese...
Sometimes we forget what weeb means.
Sakurai is an otaku* with power
1:25 music appreciation
So which character did you guys beat Sephiroth with?
I did it with Terry on easy, Cloud on Normal, and Joker on Very Hard.
Wii Fit Trainer on normal. I started trying with Simon but he's too slow and Seph keeps closing the gap too quick.
I did Kirby on very hard my first try cause I misread what Sakurai said (thought you had to beat him on very hard to unlock him), came out of it with 0.2%, a mini heart attack, and sephiroth
I used Ryu on Very hard. Gotta go hard bro!!
@@Adonis120989 Respect.
Pichu on every difficulty.
