@@alvarotargaryen4589 I love Seth and ringabels themes
Man, Bravely Second is my favorite of the three games, and I like a fair amount of the soundtrack even though REVO isn't onboard. But someone *really* should've told the composer that there were more instruments than electric guitar.
I was so annoyed when Anne's battle theme primarily focused on acoustic guitar and violin and I was just like "Oh so you CAN use other instruments and you've chosen not to??"
Basing classes off intended role: 😢
Basing classes off character themes: 😊
...one of these days someone needs to put serpent eating the horizon in the mix just to mess with people
Elvis' is completely out of left field and I love it
Don't sweat the details
And her sister got the same style along with serpent was so damn good, her them is my favourite in all three games
Him and his accent that makes you wonder what part of Ireland/Scotland/Northern England he hails from.
I really like how the themes in Bravely Default 1 & 2 feel like character themes, complete with unique instrumentation. While the Bravely Second themes are nice, having them all just use electric guitar the whole time makes the themes feel less unique and more like additional generic battle themes.
Revo is amazing!!
While I agree that Second using the same instrumentation for all special themes is disappointing, and makes them lose identity, it does give a slight trade off of higher unity between them. Also, despite how it sounds at first, they do have distinctly different melodies. As annoying as it is to see You Are My Hope, and Baby Bird being exchanged for generic themes, not counting BB's use in chapter 1, I do appreciate Yew and Magnolia's special themes still being their character themes, they just happen to be instrumented into rock. The cutscene versions of those two themes sound more distinct as well.
It’s because REVO didn’t do the soundtrack for Bravely Second, but they did end up reusing some of the tracks from Flying Fairy
It's sad because BS's character themes could really shine if the composer used different instruments and soundscapes for each theme to give them a distinct character. The composition itself is amazing, but using the same guitar for all of the melodies just makes them feel samey
I agree completely. Listening to Bravely second made me remember why i loved 1’s so much. Listening to these as a nostalgia ride, i could tell who’s songs were who for the 1st without looking, but struggled with second.
Still, loved them and I wish there would be more.
I recently noticed something about the names of the themes of Bravely Default II : in addition of talling something about the characters they also tie in the element of the Crystal that chosen the Character. It's the kind of details I absolutely adore.
Elvis is down to earth, Gloria goes with the flow, Adelle having a flame inside of her, etc
Guy who played Seth’s special theme on acoustic will never have functioning fingers ever again
The only thing I miss in Bravely Second and Default 2 is vocal versions of those themes. They're way too good.
In bravely default 2 I miss not being able to name your special attacks. I popped off naming those. Just imagine dying to an attack named "Escargo to hell."
@@XxrayXtheMaster that....is a beautiful special attack name I would be honored to be killed by that lol last thoughts be like "escargo to hell....Ha I get cause he's a cook that's a pretty good pun-" dies
@@WanderingRonin509 also because Magnolia speaks French
Gloria one is the best imo. but, never forget, any music made by Revo is awesome.
Facts
Gloria is my favorite theme it definitely suits her it's like her theme is a battle between a duty and her own sadness 😭
I prefer Adelle’s
My top 3 of char tracks are: Ringabel (maybe the closest to a Sound Horizon track made for the game, with that rockish and romantic feeling, also hearing it in a certain scene made me absolutely love it), Seth (THAT FREAKING GUITAR DAMN!!!) and Adelle (really symbolic for the character, also the trumpets brings me some Touhou vibes), they are so damn iconic ^^
This will also be my all time favorite RPG game (bravely default)
Well, if you haven't played it you shouod play Octopaty Traveler, maybe your opinion would change
@@alvarotargaryen4589 Man the job system in octopath travaler is never gonna surpass the job system in any bravely default game,If you look at octopath travaler after playing bravely default you're gonna realise.
My main issue with Bravely Second themes is that they didn't reference the original themes for Tiz and Edea. Yew and Magnolia ones are incredible, but they should've used different instruments.
Yes! Magnolia’s theme is my favourite of every theme! ❤
It's even weirder because Baby Bird plays when Edea first shows up to fight Bella.
Thanks you for uploading this compilation! So glad Revo came back for Bravely Default 2 🔥🔥🔥
I know the BS themes are very divisive in the community but Magnolia’s theme is incredible, easily my favourite!
I like the cutscene version of it more than the Limit Break version. Same with Yew's music. They feel a bit more distinct there.
15:23 The Elvis Theme is so different like him, and i love it
Can't go wrong with jazz
Definitely my favorite of the BD II themes.
He’s like nah fuck that *jazz time*
15:31 Boom! Peeeeeeerfection!
I love all 3 games and all 3 OSTs but I have to say, Second’s is easily the weakest OST, Ryo isn’t a bad composer at all but there is such thing as too much electric guitar, it makes the entire game feel different compared to the other two, especially coming out of 3DS speakers, it’s a different quality, a different tone
Edit Note: it’s especially glaring when you stop to notice the electric guitar plays like, 99% of the OST’s melodies, and some other instrument or choir is always maintaining the same note, same melody, underneath. It makes the whole OST feel a little “samey.” It lacks Revo’s uniqueness
Agreed.
To this day I will not understand how the composer of World Is Mine one of the most iconic vocaloid songs managed to fuck up special themes so bad
@@vPUNKsTERNE To be fair there are still some bangers in bravely second. Like Kaizer Oblivion theme
i agree but i still think second had EASILY the best boss theme in the series
@@FracturedPhantasm which one? Because Baal battle is actually Revo too
My favourites in order would probably be
Tiz & Ringabel (I've never been able to choose between these two) > Seth (that acoustic guitar is fire) > Adelle (feels kinda Touhou and I love it!) > Elvis (that jazz is so good!) > Gloria > Agnes > Edea > Tiz (BS) > Edea (BS) > Magnolia > Yew
I'm in general a lot less fond of second's ost so it's not a surprise (it has good songs, but I often feel like most of it blurrs together and there's a lack of a good bass line for most of the tracks), but I think when it comes to these four it's not that they're bad per say. It's that the first time I listened to all of them while doing something else I had a hard time realizing when one ended and the next one started. It's the exact same sound... It tragically lacks personality, I don't 'hear the characters' in it :/ But I feel like Tiz's has a more intense feel than the others, which is why it's my favourite of the four!
the difference between everyone else's themes and Tiz's ones in second is that Tiz has an aditional instrument: those weird metalic percusions (not sure if they're actual cymbals or something else).
Everyone else is the same exact guitar, drums, chorus and violin. Only Tiz has those added, and IT SHOWS how special the theme feels because of it. It kills me how they didn't decide to do something similar with all 4 characters, keeping the base instruments but put an aditional one that's different between them to give it more personality. Could've knocked it out of the park.
Almost the same for me.
I love these games so much, so hyped for Bravely Default III or Bravely Third
Clearly, the next game is Bravely Second II. Lol
10:39
Would normally be the time I see a pacifistic country bumpkin clock a shotgun. Best game ever.
Thank you for this comment. Best mental imagery ever
ANd he uses the Trigger Happy Special. Gun go bang bang!
Ahhh - thank you for putting these all together in one video :-)
You know, I would agree with the majority that Bravely Second has the weakest Special moves by a long margin. But, listening to them now - it's not that they're *bad*, not even close. They're pretty damn fun & catchy in their own right.
They just don't compare well to Revo's masterpieces ^^;
Yeah they're definitely not bad songs! They're just strikingly different in the face of uniqueness Revos personalizes onto the characters.
i don't like the shift they made in main themes from bd 1 to bs, in the first one there were distinct melodies with a signature instrument while in the second one they are too similar to each other. Glad they changed this back in bd 2. The 4th wall breaks in bravely second were on another level though and even in the first one were not joking, like when the camera records you during the final bossfight
Edea's themes always slap the best. Not sure why but I like bravely second ones better
My favorite from greatest to least
(Bravely Default)
1. Ringabel
2. Tiz
3. Edea
4. Agnes
(Bravely second)
1. Tiz
2. Yew
3. Magnolia
4. Edea
(Bravely Default 2)
1. Seth
2. Gloria
3. Adelle
4. Elvis
Nearly the exact same as mine. Good tastes lol
The dip in quality of music between Default and Second is staggering. I've replayed Bravely Second a half a dozen times and I still could not tell you the difference between any of those character themes.
Ringabel and Tiz from bd 1 wete incredible...BUT ELVIS, HOLY SHIT
I'm a sucker for Seth, those acoustic guitars 👌
Do you mean that Elvis theme is good or bad? (Sorry for my english)
@@junioraguiar1240 It's the best one so far
@@moonlight2870 I agree, it's my favorite
I like Elvis Themes
I've always been partial to the Bravely Second themes, though that might be bias because it was my first game and I just like electric guitars. So, personal ranking is: Magnolia - Yew - Tiz (BS) - Edea (BS) - Edea (BD) - Elvis - Seth - Gloria - Ringabel - Tiz (BD) - Adelle - Agnes.
I like them all, of course, but only the top six are the ones I actively listen to, and I've always been of the opinion that while Agnes' theme is a fitting song for her in some capacity, it doesn't sound like a special move theme. Maybe it's the way it drops off so quickly into something quiet that sounds more like background or cutscene music.
My personal ranking:
1) Seth
2) Ringabel
3) Elvis (it just hits the spot imo)
4) Tiz
5) Yew
6) Adelle
7) Agnes
8) Edea
9) Tiz (BS)
10) Gloria
11) Magnolia
12) Edea (BS)
Edea (BS) is my favorite one lol
マグノリアがピアノかオルガンにイデアをトランペットに変えるだけでも印象変わると思うんだけどな〜
Rankings:
1) Edea (BD1)
2) Ringabel
3) Gloria
4) Elvis
5) Tiz (BD1)
6) Magnolia
7) Seth
8) Adelle
9) Yew
10) Edea (BS)
11) Tiz (BS)
12) Agnes
I really don't like the BS ones very much because while I love ACE it 's just not the style I associate with BD series. Adelle's is low because it's a low energy theme for a high energy character that I feel is out of character. Edea's is by far the best and I love the live concert version with lyrics even more.
Love the thumbnail!
Thank you! I had fun making it too
RINGABEL!! My boy!
..But also Seth.
Finally! Someone did it!
My ranking:
Seth > Ringabel > Tiz > Adelle > Elvis > Yew > Gloria > Agnés > Edea > Tiz (BS) > Magnolia > Edea (BS)
Heresey, ringabel not being number 1. (I do agree Seth is fire doe)
@@XxrayXtheMaster it was really tough deciding between Seth and Ringabel. I just have more nostalgia towards BD2. While not being the first I picked up (that would be BD1), it was the first one I've beaten, and 2's music gets me so nostalgic and emotional, and it hasn't even been a year since the game came out. It's the same reason why I like Battle With Those We Must Face over That Person's Name Is. Nostalgia goggles.
@@Demi-Joker yeah I honestly like BD2 soundtrack a lot more than BD1s. I don't have nostalgia goggles for BD1, but I do have nostalgia goggles for Ringabel. Best fictional character I love that man
@@XxrayXtheMaster yeah, Ringabel is my favorite character in the series, but Bravely Default II's music goes HARD
@@Demi-Joker Especially that final boss theme. My favorite final boss theme of all time by a large margin. My number 2 is persona 3s battle for everyone's souls. What do they have in common? One strong opera woman singer. I think I'm biased. (Also god shattering star from fe3h and that's also opera)
The Boss: Why I'm hearing Boss music?
TRUE!! This is how I've always thought of special themes
I swear I heard some of ringabel's theme in elvis's, it's like right near the end but I swear to god I heard it
BS Tiz ftw! Magnolias is my favourite, sounds holy and determined.
I'm a ringabel man myself, the sounds of accordion to me just sounds exactly like Ringabels personality. I think his theme fits him the most of of the character themes
@@XxrayXtheMaster I Agree I love Ringabell's one too it only got beat by a hair.
That octopath background for the bravely default 2 themes tho
Same artists did both octopath and bravely art. That was just a picture that came up when I searched for offical art
@@XxrayXtheMaster oh wow that’s pretty cool!
@XxrayX wait really, I didn’t know. They look pretty different
A lot of the official artwork for BDII includes the Octopath characters in it, especially in the official artbook there's tons of Octopath characters meeting with Seth, Tiz, and Yew.
I find myself wondering if Seth is actually originally from the Octopath Traveler world. It would explain why he doesn't recognize the continent despite being a sailor but doesn't seem fazed by the asterisks... existing.
Thanks for preparing and uploading. As someone who played all three, bravely second's OSTs are somehow disappointing, they missed the uniqueness and the spirit of the characters.
I agree completely. REVO's strength as a composer (for videogames at least) is his uniqueness and it helps to really fit the characters and match with their personalities.
@@XxrayXtheMaster Revo's original music has made him perfectly primed to write music for video games - especially haracter themes. His original band sound horizon is where he creates entire stories and worlds with amazing characters all through music.
In essence he has trained himself to write emotional empathetic music ( for characters) and atmospheric scenic pieces (for the scenes the stories are set in)
Ryo just doesn't have that experience - so it's only natural some of his tracks miss the mark. (However, diamante, kaiser, providence and the Japanese theme are perfect)
...
PLEASE PLEASE CHECK OUT SOUND HORIZON - ITS LITTERALLY AMAZING THEY'RE LATEST RELEASE IS A BLUERAY ALBUM THAT LETS YOU CHOOSE WHICH THE DIRECTION THE STORY TAKES AND WHAT KINDA BAND DOES THAT!?!?!?!? Tell me!? And almost all of it is on par with or even above the bravely default 1 and 2 osts!
I really like tiz’s theme : )
Maybe I'm biased (look at my icon) but Tiz's BD theme will always be the best
To me the song sounds hopeful, sounds strong. To me it's the music of Tiz despite having already lost everything, giving everything, giving Agnés, his all, his hope and trust
None of the other themes have giving me the same feeling of hope, made me feel as strong as Tiz's
S I L E N C I O
Pusiero... 4:37
Seth and Gloria's are my favourites
Based
@@XxrayXtheMaster they got that sweet melody man :)
@@od1401 agreed
Who else thinks Seth looks like he's related to tiz or yew?
Just bravely's "main character" look I suppose
*song is called winds course*
*mostly uses a violin*
I genuinely can't tell the difference between Magnolia and Yew's theme bruh.
Those drums are confusin the hell out of me.
You know, I agree with the majority of people saying that BS specials are weak, but I have to wonder why.
BS had some killer tracks - I would argue Battle of Oblivion to be the best track of all 3 games. So I'm left to wonder why the same quality hasn't been kept for the whole OST.
Kaisers theme does go really hard. Shadows cast by the mighty might have to be my favorite of the series though. (Excluding final boss themes because they're on another level).
Well actually I love wicked flight a really really lot too
I don't think it holds a candle to Serpent Devouring the Horizon tbh. Second's OST is weak imo.
@@eddnav Praline's theme from BS disproves you.
@@SHODAN_0 That weeb idol shit is no match to BD1's final boss theme.
I came here only for one man...
And as always I'm not dissapointed...
The Bravely Second Soundtrack really did devolve into just Electric Guitar Riffs as it got going. There's good stuff in there, but the other 2 games had better soundtracks for their restraint and variety, if nothing else. You can't get the absurd left-turn tone swerve of Elvis's theme in Bravely Second, or the delightful characterization the first time you hear Ringabell's theme and go "Oh, that's what this idiot is about", just saying.
Ringabel sounds a lot like BD2 Boss Battle 1
I’ll never get the hate for Seconds music it honestly keeps the epic factor the entire time it’s probably why second is my favorite of the 3.
They are good, but Revo’s never share a lead instrument. It makes the BD1+2 themes stand out as character themes.
This is relevant for the Special themes, but just for comparison: pay atention to Tiz's vs everyone elses in Second. It might not be the best, but it is the most easily recognizable because of it's aditional instruments, and it FEELS leagues different by virtue of that too. Everyone elses kinda blend together, even if they do sound incredibly cool. And that's the crux of the issue. Even if on Bravely Default some might appear similar, the instrumentation helps differentiate them from one another.
Tiz's flute, Agnes violin, Edea's trumpet and Ringabel's castanets are immediately recognizable the moment the theme starts: try pulling the same thing without needing to wait for a few dozen seconds into anyone that isn't Tiz on Second.
I haven't played Second to comment on the music overall, but there's a chance the repeated use of instruments and similarity between compositions extends to more than just the themes. And that, when compared to either of the other two, people can't help but feel let down because of it.
Even tho bravely second music sounds weak in comparison still my favorite game out of the bunch
the jobs combo is just fun
Yeah I've never understood the hate for bravely second. I know they had a lot of sitcom moments, but I didn't think it took away from the atmosphere too much
Exactly ,It's a old style jrpg for goodness sake who cares
At least I don't mind me those sitcoms they are hilarious
@@mareizia Some parts were definitely oversaturated like Edeas mrgrgrs every once in a while felt forced, but like the hate the game gets is way more than what it deserves
Yes!!! Bravely second was definitely the best one in my opinion. I loved how funny and entertaining it was. It knew when to take itself seriously. Bravely default 2 felt too pretentious and the characters were boring
Funny thing is even though I feel like Second kinda fell short a tad with the annoying humor the game was not a downgrade from the original the story was still great and the gameplay was the same level. It was actually overall better than BD 2's story even though I think 2 was a slightly better game with a better ost.
FOR THE GRAVY
Yeeeeeeees!
雛鳥と王女の矜持が好き
Wait, why do I feel buffed?
For some reason the music of BD2 doesn't click for me, but BD ost and BS ost tho
Edit : I've found why. It's because it doesn't sound like a battle them and more like a character theme, it lacks punch compare to the other two
What song is magnolias theme based on?
Ringabel > Edea (Default) > Adelle > Tiz (Default) > Yew > Tiz (Second) > Edea (Second) > Magnolia > Gloria > Agnes > Seth > Elvis
I like Elvis Themes
@@似テ非ナルモノ His character theme is.. fine, just not my personal taste. His combat theme is terrible and completely at odds with the rest of the system. It also sounds awful in the final boss character medley.
Bravely 2nd are just noisy and annoying, they don't even tell story and just randomly given. 1 and 2 got more impact as they literally characters personality and story.
