Damn this slaps hard I like how it sounded very hype at the beginning but shifted into a much more menacing or malicious melody afterwards. I think in general this OST describes Oda and what he was willing to do for Tachibana in 0.
Man, the description in the video puts extremely well in words Oda's character. The song also slaps and I could see it been the actual song for the fight.
i wish he’d gotten a second fight, but this song is for his first battle. after all - at this point in Y0’s story, you still don’t know if you can trust him or not
I genuinely wish we got to fight him in that abandoned carpark after he gets ratted out by Makoto, it would of been such an excellent place to put him and it would give the catharsis of giving this guy his just deserts. Except for legend players.
I love the horror and menacing instrumentation used here! Makes me wish more Yakuza bosses had it. Also, fuck Oda, I will never understand Kiryu remembering him at the end of 0 when he's punching Shibusawa
Kiryu remembers him at the end of 0 because he was also a result of the consequences in Shibusawa and Kazama's game of "live" chess. While Kiryu never liked Oda and still regarded him as an asshole years down the line, it doesn't change that Oda ended up being as much a victim as Tachibana in this game.
Because Oda redeemed himself in the end by using himself as a shield to let Kiryu and Makoto escape. He was an asshole, but the sacrifice in the end is what counted. His tonfa fighting style is also really cool.
I kinda wish that there was another boss fight in 0 right before Oda dies, like he gets disarmed, but not stabbed, then Kiryu has to kick his ass, the kinda dangerous psycho vibes would be similar to like Kyoya or sm
Funnily enough I thought Misery Comes On Beat fit Oda the most of all the characters it’s given to (because it sounds like the theme to an evil shit) but this is MUCH more fitting. I really like it! It sounds so cold which I think is right on the mark with Oda. He only cared about one person but not even enough to do what was right for them if it compramised his standing.
this is SO good dude, i can just imagine it now, your first playthrough and you're like "hmm, this oda guy's kind of a smarmy arsehole, why does he have such a scary and sinister fight theme?" and then you reach your second playthrough and it all makes sense, really great job!! :D
I think this might be my favorite of all the tracks you made, it kinda fits him perfectly and is just such a unique composition in general, great work!
Also, I interpret the title slightly different then you do (which is ridiculous, since you made the song, but eh). I see the house of cards in question as Oda's relationship with Tachibana rather than just Oda himself. He's so desperate to keep that house standing he'll do anything, but because of his own actions, it's doomed to fall no matter what. I'd almost say it's tragic, but this is Oda we're talking about, so fuck em
oh absolutely, oda's a prick but a well-written one at that i also enjoyed how they didn't try giving him a huge redemption (i believe his final "sacrifice" to be more of something done for himself) and that kiryu still refers to him as an unlikable person when reflecting in infinite wealth
Idk why , but glass breaking/shattering sound really fit with his true motive in the game itself , and hench his 'doings' breaks everything apart(including himself) after that event.
I feel like people give Oda too much shit. He was very territorial and distrusting like an attack dog for Tachibana. He was an asshole for sure and his past doesn't paint him any better, but he really shown his true colors in the end when he redeemed himself by sacrificing his own life to let Kiryu and Makoto escape. The fact that he told Shibusawa to get bent more or less reaffirms his loyalties to Tachibana. He was an old jealous dog that feared to be replaced, but in the end done what is right.
Human Trafficking makes him unforgiveable for me, remember when Lee talked about how Makoto didnt let go of his hand when he rescued her (reminding Lee of his deceased daughter)? That was a direct consequence of Oda manipulating and selling her which lead to her being subjected to sexual (and likely also physical) abuse. Also considering the Timeline of Makoto only being 20 in Yakuza 0, theres a very real chance she was still underaged when Oda tricked her.
"yeah sure, human trafficking is bad, but hey! at least he _meant_ well to tachibana.." Is not the case you think it is Oda is a horrible human being with very little redeeming qualities. I don't sympathize. Tho, I don't hate him as a character. You can't hate a bad person doing bad things and rightfully being punished for it, just how the story goes. I do find him at the very least interesting and somewhat (and by somewhat I mean very little) nuanced, but you'll never catch me acting as his apologist.
@@Norrabal Cool that you paraphrased what I said assbackwards. I was talking about his character writing quality, not telling people to feel sympathetic for human trafficking or whatever.
If he were a recurring boss, I could definitely imagine this being the music that plays during the final encounter with him, similar to Oath to Enma for Kuze or Destiny for Someya.
It's funny that people hate him while loving other characters that have caused worse or just as bad things. Oda definitely has one of the best motives for betrayal in the series.
I love the sinister vibes of this, gives off Judgment Long Battle OST vibes, or ngl (SPOILERS FOR INFINITE WEALTH) this could’ve also fit for Eiji’s club battle
@@Norrabal oh I don’t know… RUNNING A CULT AND MURDERING THE ACTUAL LEADERS OF IT TO PREVENT ANYONE FROM FINDING OUT SO YOU CAN CONTINUE TO BRAINWASH LITERAL CHILDREN AND ESSENTIALLY TAKE OVER HAWAII AND DOING THIS FOR NEARLY 70 (since Bryce is over 90 years old) FUCKING YEARS is probably worse than Human Trafficking.

Not only human trafficking, but considering Makoto's age in 0, she was most likely underaged while being trafficked. Not to mention hebis an all around scumbag, sure he had some dignity and honour by the end, but that doesn't change that he was a horrible person

“oda doesn’t deserve a good theme!!”
i know that’s why i made it sound sinister and creepy instead of badass
But the his theme is still good... Seriously, your fan-themes are simply rad 🔥 Keep it up, champ
Shit man, I’d love to have you be a composer for when I go and become a director because this is awesome
And it somehow, ends up being badass.
It perfectly fits the game, because kiryu and the player are very confused on what exactly is this shady company
im sorry bro but this is like the best theme you made
akiyama if he was a asshole
That’s putting it *veeery* lightly
Akiyama if he was a Korean asshole
“If he was an asshole” bruv he was a human trafficker😭
This is what kanai heard
The sinister intent in the theme reminds me of Sadamoto from the Kaito Files. Fitting since Oda's VA also plays that guy.
Damn this slaps hard
I like how it sounded very hype at the beginning but shifted into a much more menacing or malicious melody afterwards. I think in general this OST describes Oda and what he was willing to do for Tachibana in 0.
Btw do you mind if I used your music for any videos? I always credit and link them to the original source
@@tomatheshowcaseguygo ahead! all my music is free use as long as i’m given credit in the description.
kamuro district guy
HOLY ITS THE UF4 GUY
Man, the description in the video puts extremely well in words Oda's character.
The song also slaps and I could see it been the actual song for the fight.
AYO??? giving me vibes like if oda had a second fight, like right around the end of his story. absolutely sick track
Yeah! I imagine if he got a second boss fight, it's when he betrays you at that construction site.
i wish he’d gotten a second fight, but this song is for his first battle. after all - at this point in Y0’s story, you still don’t know if you can trust him or not
what fighting style do y'all think he would've had if he had a second fight? he has daigo's as an ai partner but idk
@@fallenstone17 I feel Oda would have like a type of Bajiquan, or something like boxing except he only uses banned moves
He doesn't deserve a theme this good.
yes he does lmao
I genuinely wish we got to fight him in that abandoned carpark after he gets ratted out by Makoto, it would of been such an excellent place to put him and it would give the catharsis of giving this guy his just deserts.
Except for legend players.
after my first playthrough i kept having memories of fighting him in the car park even though it never happened for some reason
@@ggyas2202And i throught that he died saying "Screw you" to Shibusawa until recently. Weird
@@iskanderrgwait that didn't happen?
Banging track to sell women to slavery to.🔥🔥🔥
Oda was a bit of a bro, until he wasn't. Definitely did his slimeyness justice with this track.
I love the horror and menacing instrumentation used here! Makes me wish more Yakuza bosses had it. Also, fuck Oda, I will never understand Kiryu remembering him at the end of 0 when he's punching Shibusawa
Lao Gui, Hirose, Soma, Kuroiwa, Sadamoto have menacing themes.
Plus you can’t do it too much or else it will no longer stand out.
Kiryu remembers him at the end of 0 because he was also a result of the consequences in Shibusawa and Kazama's game of "live" chess. While Kiryu never liked Oda and still regarded him as an asshole years down the line, it doesn't change that Oda ended up being as much a victim as Tachibana in this game.

Sadamoto in 1988
Ironic cuz both have the same Japanese VA.
This sounds so freaking good for Oda, definitely sounds like something I'd expect out of a Like A Dragon 0 Kiwami haha
this is SO good dude, i can just imagine it now, your first playthrough and you're like "hmm, this oda guy's kind of a smarmy arsehole, why does he have such a scary and sinister fight theme?" and then you reach your second playthrough and it all makes sense, really great job!! :D
the complete tone shift and piano around 1:18 give me a STRONG touhou vibe- i LOVE touhou music, so this is 100% a compliment

I think this kind of theme would've fit more if there was second fight with him (after a taxi chase scene to be exact)
this slaps harder than kashiwagi
you may not be a good person oda but i will still like you as a character
okay i was relistening to this and realized this might of been worded bad i absolutely hate oda as a person i just found his character intriguing
@@dqafq514it’s not easy to make a character liked for being hated and I think that Oda hits that mark very well

i find oda to be an unforgivable character. bro to tachibana or not, he still sold his sister into slavery and kept him in the dark until he died.

i just checked (i think) all of your yakuza fantracks and this and kashiwagi's are probably the best ones.
0:05 I feel like if that last note holds off for just another measure it would add just that little bit of suspense that would be the cherry on top.
This is awesome! Reminds me a lot of the Kaito Files penultimate boss theme, but with a ton of unique flare to it. Fits the character perfectly

This reminds me of Viper (Lost Judgment) in how it gives me the creeps.
