Well, if there's one good thing about being in lock down, it's that I now have time to upload some content. I hope you've all been keeping well during these dire days.
This dual mashup combines the original version of Ideal and the Real with the end version from Persona 5 Royal. Enjoy!

This music... This specific version represents how I feel now that Billy Kametz is in a better place...
It made my heart die a little when I heard the news. RIP to a absolute Unit of a young man. May you watch over us Billy forever and more.
May billy kametz rest in piece, may his hard work fly high

This is one of the best comments I've ever read and I need to come back to it every month.
"There is no growth in the comfort zone, and there is no comfort in the growth zone."
Beautiful quote that sums up both Maruki and Sumire
ah-
mm
damn that's deep
There will never be both in one zone.
You just need a forward operating base at the edge of your comfort zone and go on patrols into the growth zone.
I went inside his office for a new confidant relationship. Stayed for the music (and treats)
I stayed for the snacks :D
i went for extra sp lol
I came for the story, stayed for the story and sp and went through the whole thing for the love of his topic and because it's needed for the new endings.
You gotta love how much he pressures you into counseling with snacks.
Im not gonna like or else the 420 likes is ruined bruv
This picture is vauge enough as a thumbnail that its not a spoiler to those who see it, but to those WHO KNOW. Are just sad all over again.
i-
what??
tbf i haven't gotten to that part in the game yet so what would i know :\
context is everything
I'm guessing they're related. He could be her father. They could be twisted in a mess of familial ties. I hope I'm not close I haven't played Royal
@@tragicsense5283 well yes but actually no
@@premonition5508 this should be the slogan of the persona franchise xD
I... can’t quite get over this picture. Maruki looks like he’s fed up with the world and only cares about completing his work, and Kasumi just looks dead inside. It doesn’t quite seem right given their personalities, but then again, it also fits perfectly
It somewhat fits, Maruki's looking up towards the reality he created, fed up with the unfairness of this world.
Sumi feels empty, trying to remember something that was taken out of her memory, looking at an object from the past and remembering the pain that she can't quite explain.
Spoilers:
I love how Kasumi almost looks as if she’s incredibly hurt and hesitating to make a difficult decision, like taking on her true identity. Her glasses represent Sumire, something she is struggling to accept but she has the determination to do so anyway. God this game is so good
I know this comment is quite old but is nobody gonna point out the fact that Sumi takes off her glasses to see the world as it is while Maruki uses his "Rose-tinted" glasses to see the reality he wants
Oh god this art with this song makes my heart hurt once more. I love it
hurt is definitely right, especially if your like me and was unironically hesitant at first
@@omarsherif9764 same in my first playthrough i was honestly hesitant
for real guys, the choice we had to make just destroyed me to the point where I couldn't even sleep right
@@lucasboyadjian3131 both endings are sad to me :'(
I agree 💔😢
What if you, wanted to take back reality?
But Maruki said: 0:00
“Do you want some snacks?”
What if you, wanted to take back reality?
But the person who you trusted and created a temporary truce with told you that he accepts Maruki’s reality.
@@andys2801 [Unnamed] boy: The deal's off...
@@andys2801 a small price to pay for salvation as thanos used to say
she took her glasses off, not wanting to see the reality , while maruki sees the harsh truth
I think that what it really means is when she takes off her glasses signifying removing the guise of Kasumi she was living under, while Maruki keeps trying to make everything ideal, staying away from reality
Maruki got the wrong prescription.
The glasses are a mask, much like Jokers glasses, which are shown to be a symbol of his 'masked self' throughout the game. Maruki wears his mask, unable to see why he pursues this 'happy reality' so much, and refuses to aknowledge it's only for his own sake and not for others. Sumire takes her glasses off, removing the guise of 'Kasumi,' and accepting herself as Sumire.
Does Sumire even need glasses? She seemed to do just fine without them when she was "Kasumi"
@@shadowagent7361 Contacts, probably.
The VA behind Maruki has passed away just a few days ago.
RIP Billy Kametz.
Went far too soon, rest in peace.
He also voice Ferdie in 3 houses.
😢RIP Billy Kametz 😭
already that long, huh
Feels it happened longer than 5 months ago…
Rest In Peace.
God... the art just embodies the whole mood of the third semester for Royal.
Yo this mix captures both feelings of Dr. Maruki, one side he talks to you all happy during counseling and then the other side is his sadness for everything he lost. Great job👍🏼
Jose?
@@Real_Igor044 Jose's catchphrase is actually "Good job" but yeah, he might've been going for that effect.
P5R has a story that makes you cry more then the original
Especially 'Kasumis' backstory
I’ve never heard a song that’s so upbeat yet sad at the same time
Spoilers!
Fits Maruki perfectly. On one hand he has lost everything, on the other even through that, where anyone else would have turned evil, he fully devoted himself to helping others by creating a perfect world. SSS tier character. XD
Fly high billy
This is absolutely wonderful. This is by far my favorite song in the Royal soundtrack. It just, brings so many emotions running through me. Especially when it’s paired for when you get the bad ending when you agree to marukis deal. It’s just, sad. But happy. It’s hard to explain. Thank you for making this.
I would not call this a bad ending to be fair.
Right, it not a bad ending, I say it a good/fake ending and the other is the true ending.
That ending is quite emotional, is like very happy and very sad at the same time.
@@Lazaruz95 There's also the Maruki Bad Ending where you end up pretty much just laying in bed every day
I love gentle madman
"And as he reached out to the construct that his own lies built, he realised he had lost both reality and himself. The castle fell, a crack here and a crack there but soon the cracks turned to quakes and the walls so sturdy began to shatter to sandy glass, that he realised what it all meant. He had time but it was wasted on what wasn't truly there, a castle built on sand from Father Time, longing to be used anywhere but here. Seemingly acknowledging this, he knelt further forward his head thumping against the floor as he tore his gaze from the illusion."
-"The Man who dreamt a world"
oh
OH NO
One of the best antagonists in videogame history, it felt like the phantom thieves was the bad guys and maruki was the good guy trying to everyone be happy. I am not gonna say that maruki is a villain, because he ain't one
Saidakk he is definitely not a villain, just an antagonist (has views opposing the protagonists own)
It’s the perfect villain for the phantom thieves because they pretty much have similar end goals, only difference is how they achieve it
@@Jesus-rj1hg that's not a villain
@Jesus Maruki isn’t a villain, he can only be considered an antagonist. That said, you’re exactly right otherwise. He is after all the gentle madman, and considers himself Adam who has lost Eve, bearing the burden of the fruits of knowledge on his shoulder due to the whispering, shape-shifting snake that is his persona in his ear...
@@Jesus-rj1hg there's a word for this: anti-hero
Rest In Peace Billy Kametz, your voice as Maruki was amazing and I’ll never forget you.
Damn that art of kaSUMI is REally good, and the music, ah! This game was so feckin good!
I see what'cha did there.
I was about to ask why was “sumi” capitalised and then I realised.
Would’ve been better if it was just the s tho to make it seem more like a name
@@ameliabloodborne3366 yeah but "is" is between the first and second half so it would look kinda weird
Good one. And I agree. The art, the music, and the game are all fantastic.
Anybody who isn't braindead will see right through this. A spoiler in plain sight smh
"Right now, I'm suffering"
-Jose 20XX
This is one of my favorite tracks from Royal - I remember stopping conversations with Maruki just to listen to this and I was very happy to find that there was an alternate version to the "bad" end. Thank you for your hard work in making a dual mix!
I wouldn’t even call this a bad ending.
There’s the Good ending (Vanilla P5 ending after Yaldabaoth)
Bad ending (Selling our your team/ accepting Igors deal)
True ending (Defeating Maruki)
False ending (Accepting Marukis reality)
@@Binks129 I wouldn't call it a false ending. I'll call it the happy ending, because that's what it is, pure happiness.
@@Binks129 dont forget the new bad ending if you fail to reach maruki's treasure before February 3rd (i believe it was the 3rd)
A really mean person Oh yeah I forgot to mention that one, the Cobweb ending...
Jor Jor Banks Well false as in theyre in a false reality.
I recently got Royal and finally hit the new semester, this game is beautiful.
I like how it’s kinda like those dual headphone mixes/mashups where there’s two different versions of the song, but in whichever mix is dominant in one headphone, the other is present, but subdued, kinda hidden.
I played this game a year ago and unintentionally got the true ending (I had no clue what I was doing, only thing I knew was a friend told me the counselor was important) just recently came back to it, I'm currently finishing up the 4th palace, I forgot the pain this game caused me, the ending makes my heart hurt especially knowing Billy passed now 😭💔 absolute masterpiece of a game, not perfect but damn it's a phenomenal game!
All I can recall from lockdown 2 years ago is playing through this game for hours on end every day. And when I finally got to the end of the game and found out that Maruki had these intentions this entire time it blew my mind. Honestly, it was the first time in a game where I struggled with choosing between "right" and "wrong". His choice felt like the right one to me, he never seemed like a villain and I can see why he wanted to create the world he did. It's just not that straightforward sometimes. Hands down one of the best antagonists of all time. Never had any ill intentions from the start.
Ever since I came across this at 2 am last night I must’ve listened to it over 50 something times. I absolutely love this, thank you for blessing my ears! Subscription coming in hot!
Whoever drew the art is 👌
Edit, 2 or 3 years later: Wow I do not remember making this comment, my point still stands
IMO that artwork tells alot but nothing at the same time, love it
I love these two ost in one ❤
persona 5 was the first and only persona game i played, it was the best single player game i have ever played and the tracks are all so beautiful!
The whole series is amazing, it's almost insane how it went under the radar for so many years, even the mainline series that Persona spun-off of is actually fantastic, the franchise easily became my favorite JRPGs ever.
Damn, just finished the game yesterday, this remix really hits hard, one of the best games I have ever played, thank you, the art is pretty good too
The one man that makes you doubt everything the 100+ hour JRPG you have been playing stands for
Still coming back to this, my favourites experience in gaming since I first played P5.
Ngl I'm an almost grown lad and this game never ceases to bring a few tears in my eyes especially 3rd semester....god I love this game
the glasses really have a great symbolism
God bless Billy Kametz
We'll miss you dearly.
wait holy shit i think i just realised something, in this image kasumi is holding sumire's glasses, she knows she's not kasumi, and is looking down as if hesitating to put her true self back on. Kinda like how the protag wears his glasses as his mask to the world, Kasumi took off Sumire's glasses to wear the mask of kasumi. OOoOooooO thinking. lel
This would mix well with Futabas theme
i can hear it in my head and it's so good, someone please make a dual mix of that
th-cam.com/video/YZSMGugZ19k/w-d-xo.html because of your comment i actually made a mix with futaba's theme
Yup, uses a similar chord structure and instrumentation. I remember when the ost for royal came out on youtube and I heard this song. That's what I immediately thought
What's crazy too is that those are the two songs you can feel the most sadness through. Futaba's Palace and the final palace are both so somber and the songs 100% reflex that 🥲
man now its been 3 years i feel old
That guitar section near the end is perfection
Maruki and Sumire 😍
Wistful. Such a beautiful tune! Thanks so much for making this!
This ARTWORK is 10/10
I love this whole track but something about them last 35 seconds that just sound so good to me
i never thought i needed this mix. Its amazing thank you
Thank you, Billy Kametz. Thank you, doctor.
Wait imagine if Maruki works is completed and everyone in the world "Wishes" came true. That would mean Makoto/Minato would've been resurrected and get a second chance to live and shinjiro too.
If you agree to his offers, at the end of the credits instead of saying “fin”, it says “end”. To me this shows that in Maruki’s reality, there can be no more conflict and no more evil presence threatening the Persona universe, this showing the end of the story for all future Persona users. The true ending says “fin” which to me means that this was the end of the story for the Phantom Thieves but not for Persona users as a whole
@@mikeh5139 doesn't really explain the other endings that say "end"
The only question is: How would this affect the whole Erebus thing. Since no one specifically wishes Erebus to be gone, just for Minato to be out, which under normal circumstances would be the end of Erebus or Nyx. But these arnt normal circumstances. Then again Maruki would probally do some tweaking to make it so that no one wishes for death or somethin.
@@Siuolplex When everyone is happy, no one would even think about death. The pain and suffering that accumulate in someone mind is the one who lead them into thinking they want death. If Maruki grant everyone wishes it would stop all of their pain and suffering like losing a love ones, Not meeting people expectations, etc. Thats why you dont need to think about Erobus
@@gabe3885 It's not as classy as "Fin".
I always have this video looping in the background when trying to focus on something. Great mix!
This mash up is... genius :) Really like it! It has been on repeat for the past couple of hours
Rest in peace Billy. You were one talented guy :)
I love this mashup of the two different versions! It works so well and thank you! I know what I’m gonna be listening to next time I go on a road trip!
At 05:13 kinda sounds like Futaba's palace theme
Edit: Wow the guitar from the 'bad' ending theme really complements the original theme
This mix is truly amazing
I feel real lucky to have started getting into the Persona series with 5. Honestly the best game I've ever played hands down. I'm kinda fearful that 6 may not be as big as 5 has become but then again I said the same thing about future Smash Bros games, then they turned out to be bigger and better than the last. So here's hoping!
Thats nice to hear. I highly suggest if you can playing Persona 4 Golden if you want to explore more of tbe series, if not, the P4 anime is also a great watch.
We dont talk about the p5 anime lol
@@Krysta1Rose True, also P4 Golden is on steam now, so it's easier to get it...
But still, we have P3 movies and P4 anime! P5 Anime it's NOT safe...
Persona 4 is... definitely a video game. I liked it, but I don't even think it was all that great or even good, it just gets by on its buckets of charm and the good setting. If games like the CDI Zeldas are good bad games, then Persona 4 is a bad good game. It's definitely worth playing still.
I didn’t get to play royal yet, but persona 4 golden is for now my favorite persona game. I played a bit of fes but I never got to finish it because all of my saved data was gone. I’ll just wait and see if fes will be in released in steam also.
Some of y'all is goin to be real mad at me, but it must be said. Why don't you play a real sheen megumi tensay game?
This is probably my favorite iteration of this song, post-Royal, this version seems more depressing and more fitting
The art also helps set the mood
Great rendition, thanks for making this, and even hooking us up with the download, thanks for that alone I subscribed.
When you undermine your entire journey to accept a perfect world that is not even able to be earned through merit or triumph, you reach the ideal world, but is such a thing as this Utopia even real? Is it something that people actually wanted? To remove pain and strife for unending happiness and falsifications? Or does it even matter, as once you accept it even for a second, you can’t deny it ever again. This wasn’t made by some evil mastermind and isn’t anything like The Matrix, rather it was made out of kindness by a man willing to be a martyr if that meant nobody had to suffer ever again; a good man who saw himself as Adam after loosing Eve...
this hits different staring at the art of a broken Maruki and Sumi
R.I.P. Billy, we miss you :(
one of the greatest JRPGs of all time.
A wonderful mix and an excellent picture to go with it!
Such a damn good song
This is magical!
Very good thank you
This mix is so so Majestic
Dude, holy SHIT this is good.
I'm gonna cry
This mix is unbelievably good
This reminds me so much of Pokemon Black and White with Ideal and Truth I cant its so fitting
Honestly I wasnt that hype for Royal since I enjoy the SMT games more but damm...This game was worth every single hr of my day. Everything was improved and I love the new takes of the persona series. The only thing I never enjoyed was the never ending spinoffs... Instead of making spin off they should have made Royal aleast 2-3 new more palaces...Because damm that last palace and story and writing was amazing.
There's now a direct sequel for the vanilla Persona 5, though not royal, sadly.
Mmm this is such a beautiful mix
Thank you for this
I legit thought Maruki was Futaba's dad for most of the game
wait what
God imagine the twist
If maruki was in the base game that would be my 100% guess
@Nobody he was into cognitive psience, and Wakaba would be the only character that could recognize him
Maruki and Wakaba studied in the same field, so they could've at least walked past eachother at some point maybe.
Totally missed this video, I'm sort of upset I did XD, this one is super good. Honestly its one of your best Mixes for sure.
love this artwork
It almost seems like Maruki is Kasumi's father considering we were helped her buy glasses for her father. I haven't finish the game yet but it's interesting. And Maruki so far is such a cool character.
Just finished today! What a blast it's been. 130 hours well spent! Only 3 trophies away from platinum, and I messed up the only viable saves that could've helped me get those 3 trophies easily, so I'll likely have to start all over, but oh well! I want those themes!
I have just finished today. It took my nearly 200 hours. You probably messed up Master of Akihabara trophy because this trophy requires some days spent in maid cafe and you had no enough free days. Besides, P5R trophies are preety easy to obtain much easier than in P5.
@@TheAlin1213 oh yeah, I know. It was the maid cafe trophy, reaper, lottery, and incense on a persona in lockdown. So that means I have to level up the twins this play through too. I legit just started my newgame plus 15 minutes ago haha
@@evakasai1164 I got my plat at 131 hours. I read that some people got plat at 70-80 hours. XD I wonder if we're playing the same game. I did read up on trophy list in advance so I didn't miss anything though.
Finished it in 90 hours w platinum
This is great, thank you!
I really like this mix
This mashup is heavenly.
This is really cool, kudos! :D
I love this chill music so much i bought the ps4 dynamic theme!!!!
Makes me want to play Royal again now it's been a while.
This is soooooooooooo good!
The number 1 most underrated song in Persona 5
I LOVE MARUKI AND SUMIRE❤
This artwork is awesome.
Love this theme 🖤
Love it ❤️
This music is too good ❤️
God this game is so fucking good
I don't know anything about persona 5. All i know is that their music is damn good for relaxing.
havent played royal yet but just judging from this pic alone I can tell that I am in for another big ride! Best theme song by far!
Good vibes fr
That guitar solo towards the end is one of the finest guitar solos I've ever heard in such a long time. Props to Shoji Meguro SUCH TALENT!!
I love how this theme represents perfectly how Maruki feels, he wants to help the people by saving them from pain however, he deeply knows that what he is doing is wrong. I love Maruki's arc and that whole part of the game, I think the only moment that surpasses it is Persona 3's conclusion. Persona 5 became such an underrated game because of the gatekeepers :c
the best theme on royal
P5r: Joker fist fights Maruki.
Me: Therapy is great.
Best antagonist in the whole series hands down. Great ost to go along with him as well.
The more I think about Maruki, the more I realise how he wasnt a bad guy at all and just wanted to help people. I have never felt this way towards a character to this extent in a video game before. Best game i have played in years 100%
