I was playing this just now on my Switch and when I got to this part I was completely surprised that it was completely redone and voiced! It put a huge smile on my face.
This was a beautiful moment in this game❤😊
I just went through this scene right now, man. Although I prefer the original OST (due to personal taste and nostalgia), this completely remade opera scene really moved me.
I'm also playing on my Nintendo Switch.
You guys playin on switch too?
Yeah i playing it on Nintendo switch too for nostalgia reason. I've played it on SNES.
Sooo... I started the SNES version of the game a few months ago, lost the save and when I knew the pixel remaster was coming to Switch I decided to wait.
I got to this part in the original version and just last night I got here in the pixel remaster. Amazed at the work they've done with this whole part in general :')
Never realized before how similar this song and Aerith's theme are!
They always tends to reuse stuff for next games. They learned how to make the characters to "laugh" in ff5 and abuse that in ff6 for kefka.
As soon i heard this song on the game i thought "Hold up, this sounds like Aerith's theme"
And also, listen to Eyes on Me/Julia's Theme...all three songs have similar parts.
That’s kind of what happens when you have the same guy do the music for many entries of the same series.
It's just Nobuo's melody choices. If you listen to any artist closely enough, you'll start to see commonalities in the melodies they use.
Holy shit, no matter the version, I can't help but cry 😭
Came here just to see how it had changed and...... 😢😭😭
"You were wonderful, Celes." - Locke
I would imagine Locke would've been moved to tears reacting to Celes-as-Maria's performance.
Especially considering Rachel is front and center on his mind during this whole segment.
@@ZenMonkeyGod Good point. Before this, Celes wanted to know straight-up if Locke saw her as his new Rachel.
"Am I just a replacement... for her?"
@@movinitlikedat45 Oh yeah, that's gotta sting, too, since he doesn't really answer her. That moment is so well doje though.
This and Aerith's theme are two sides of the same melodic coin
first three notes ale the same, right?
@@intactwindowThe entirety of this song follows a similiar structure to each other and share the first notes.
My favorite part of Final Fantasy VI. Such a powerful moment...
Damn it I’m not crying you are 😭
So beautiful
I am not crying you are!
The 2.5d integrated into the scene is absolutely stunning
Ikr, they should remake the whole game like this
I'm glad they found a female vocalist with a good, realistic singing voice to keep on tune, because as we all remember that Celes is a military general, not a real singer.
She is an opera floozy at heart. She even got sad when the opera was cancelled in World of FF.
That and an IMMENSE increase in storage space
That makes Celes' voice acted singing a lot more sense, and building up her guilt of herself from the opera before the world of ruin a lot more endearing.
This song still made my eyes wet😭
This song always gets me and I actually like the remaster of it. I remember hearing the original when I was 7 or 8. It was one of the first times music made me feel complex emotions that I couldn't understand or explain, being so young. My brother playing, I would just sit down and listen completely entranced.
I played this game in my late teenage years, and it still moves me in ways no other song has. 😭
@@alfredkennedy2069 I feel it man! Same!
Same! For me cool game music was Mega Man. This scene changed everything.
Holy shit, it's voiced?! I cannot fucking wait for the Switch version!
This piece of music is easily one of the most beautiful songs in the entirety of Final Fantasy.
Final Fantasy VI in my opinion still the best in the series and also Kefka the best villain in the series.
Kefka and Emet-Selch tied for first place imo, each for their own reasons. One deeply sympathetic, and one you just love to hate (hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate!)
Celes has such a beautiful voice!!! 😍😍😍😍
I'm not surprised they put a lot of love into this scene. This is a lot of peoples' favorite part of FF6. Some of the castle looks a little meh, but everything else is perfect. The moon looks gorgeous. Celes' singing is great.
I noticed the castle being a little off too, but then I thought about it and remembered that it's not supposed to be a real castle, but a stage play attempting to make a castle and that made a lot more sense to me
Yeah, this actually reminds me of why VI looked better than VII back then; VI came along at the peak of the SNES' graphics, while the first 3D entry, VII, was released when 3D was still relatively new. The stage visual's graphics are similar to PSX era, so it really stands out among the superior 2D art.
It's a damn shame they didn't put this version of Celes' Theme on ANY of the Theatrhythm games. This would have been great DLC.
I feel like a distance memory from a distance past of your love couldn't ever forget
I can feel it too.
That must be one giant stage to fit all of this on. 😮
… dangit, I'm at work! I can't sit here sobbing like this! I was *not* expecting voice accompaniment!
Happy birthday to you Celes.🎉🎂🎊🎁
Always.
Wow!! The voice actress did an amazing job!!!
I got to this part today and it threw me off guard. It's so good.
Dang it! Who left this bowl of onions here?!
When I started playing the Final Fantasy 6 Pixel Remaster and started getting lost in the music, I had a thought about the opera part of the game and I was so hoping there would be actual singing and this scene blew me away. I'm so glad my expectations were not only met but blown away.
I was moved back on the original, but this brought tears from the very first notes. Props to the pixel remaster voice actors and the dev team who brought the idea of having the opera being actually sung in the first place😻😹😻😹😻
thia was the best scene of a videgame, now is the very best.
wow, imagine growing up with the remastered version instead of a pixelated 8-bit opera with no "singing" back in 1996.
thanks for the upload! great video
Yes, I do not even remember this scene in the old 1996 version. I think I had no idea about what a good opera is back in 1996. Thanks for the comments and for visiting my channel.
At least you can change the music back if you want.
I like it, but it doesn't work for this old man. The original version of his song has some deep personal meaning
Growing up with the old version…. Seeing this almost brought me to tears. I was lucky to see the full scene performed at a distant worlds show, but having the vocals in game now… it’s something.
That how I am with vii story game 😂 never play original 1997 version, I play vii crisis core when I was 8, I waiting decade later for remake 😁 so glad I grow up with remake modern graphic and gameplay 😁honestly I proud vii crisis core is my first final fantasy game :)
@@PlaystationGamerZX the original is sweet too, but the yeah better graphics better experience (except FFV iOS version lol)
Absolute masterpiece of a game.
There's a great Paper Mario Thousand Year door to this, and it's fantastic.
Wow! I'm not a Final Fantasy kind of guy, but this music truly is beautiful.
Beautiful scene!!!!!
... "What?" ... "Crying? No!" ..."You're the one who's crying." **Snifft**
I like to think that in her mind shes singing to Locke
I can't get used to the reworked lyrics, though. The original SNES lines are unforgettably burned into my memory, and the reason I sign everything I ever write to my wife as "forever yours":
Oh my hero, far away now
Will I ever see your smile?
Love goes away, like night into day
It's just a fading dream
I'm the darkness, you're the stars
Our love's brighter than the sun
For eternity, for me there can be
Only you, my chosen one
Must I forget you? Our solemn promise?
Will autumn take the place of spring?
What shall I do? I'm lost without you
Speak to me once more
We must part now, my life goes on
But my heart won't give you up
Ere I walk away, let me hear you say
I meant as much to you
So gently, you touched my heart
I will be forever yours
Come what may, I won't age a day
I'll wait for you, always
This scene was a defining moment for Final Fantasy that changed the series, from which character depth and development became central to the game. (Sorry Faris and Syldra)
FF4: Am I a joke to you?
nobuo uematsu was genious
I just got to this point in the PS5 version. I’m glad they didn’t use someone who would have an amazing singing voice, since Celes is a general, not a singer.**
Having played FF3 on the SNES with the “MIDI” sounding singing…this was a pleasant surprise for sure, and I’m glad it was included
**Note: I’m not dissing on the woman singing at all, she did amazing, was pointing out that I’m glad they went with the average person singing vs a trained singer. Even if the woman is an actual singer, she pulled off how it would sound if a normal person got up and did it.
I agree. It was lovely, sounded like Celes. And as Celes and Lock are my favorite characters, I'm happy they did this!
I agree completely. They still chose the women with the sweetest voice ever for this scene
@@dii1314
Even Setzer was impressed.
As a massive fan of the original SNES game (my 2nd favorite game of all time) and its soundtrack, I never thought any re-release or remaster would ever top the original soundtrack, especially with how the gameboy advance butchered it. But this remaster proved me wrong; all of the tracks are absolutely wonderful, especially the opera with actual vocals.
I've listened to this scene in multiple languages. Italian, and the French version are the best sounding.
Since I've heard a number of renditions of Aria De Mezzo Carattere by this point, I was actually a little disappointed in how "shrill" Celes' vocalist sounded compared to others such as in the Distant Worlds concert. But I think that actually works. Celes shouldn't have been able to become professional quality in one day of practicing.
Hope it will port to Nintendo Switch
Wish granted.
Me playing this on PS1: "eh, it's a silly opera scene. What's the big deal?"
Me playing this on the PR: "Holy shit..."
I was kinda expecting the change but I wasn't expecting it to be 3d
Imagine if this was in full 3D, like later FF games. It would feel more emotional.
Yes l, try to play Genshin Impact and visit Fontaine nation and visit its opera house, it remind me of FFVI Opera.. and the game is free to play.

I am not teary eyed, it's just the onion I am chopping making me tear up. Still to this day one of Nobue Uematsu's best track.
Screw Cloud+Tifa, Squall+Rinoa, it is Locke+Celes ship I want to be in.
This isnt even the full thing, the entire opera is voiced
They should make this a real opera
Is it same singer with vogel im kafig from attack on Titan?
😢
joder tio q seinen
Is this a computer version? I'd love to play it again
FFVI Pixel Remastered is released in Steam and Mobile Phone.
PS4 in the spring too :)
Is the voice in the remaster version???
And why lyrics changed
Wish the whole pixel remaster series couldve been like this, it would justify the $75 price tag on Switch
It's not?
$75 for 6 amazing games is a damn good price point.
@@Pichu-82 lmao you can get the GBA or PS1 versions that have more content for less
These are just phone ports slapped on console
@@TmaadHMD $75 plus 25 shipping on Square Enix store for the standard edition
@@cybershroom9240 - More content that does nothing for the story and really adds nothing to the games, you mean.
The nifty thing is the Pixel Remasters were marketed as remasters of the ORIGINAL games. You know, the ones where they didn't have that additional content that served as fluff to the games. Sure, I loved Dawn of Souls and enjoyed the extra stuff they added in the Advance remakes. Doesn't mean I expected them in the Pixel Remasters and they really don't lose anything by not including something that wasn't present in the first place.
Also, Dawn of Souls, FF4, 5, and 6 Advance, FF Origins, Chronicles, Anthology... all of those cost more than the average of $12.50 per game in the $75 price point of the Pixel Remasters on Switch. So, how exactly are you getting more for less? Looks like more for more to me, but then, I never did buy into that new math.
Celes is the protagonist after Terra, correct?
Yup, she's the main protagonist of the World of Ruin part of the game.
Technically the idea is that the story focuses on the group more than one individual. Otherwise Locke is the only one who is with both girls and on his own
I personally will argue Kefka is the main character and the game has a Villain Protagonist structure told from the opposite side but I've been chased out of conventions for suggesting this.
@@zachariahjonahmaldonado5897 I wouldn't disagree with you, I mean it worked for Avengers: Infinity War so why not FF VI?
@@zachariahjonahmaldonado5897 I would agree if the World of Ruin didn't lose steam so quickly. He terrorizes a couple towns and then he's just there skulking in his tower until you fight him.
Even in GBA i still love this part of the game i really hate that octopus that ruin the fun lmao
Hmm they changed up the lyrics
what she sings now?!
in the remaster yes they added vox but some folk hate it i personally love it
Watching that white materia slip out of your hands
Who's that VA singing?
Okay, I like the fact they got a real vocalist, that's great. But WHY DID THEY CHANGE THE LYRICS? It takes away a ton of what the song ACTUALLY represents; her feelings for Locke.
I’m pretty sure the lyrics are more true to the original (maybe)
The SNES lyrics did not fit the tempo of the song at all. You'd either have to rush through them in places, or have to draw them out in others, to the point where it didn't feel natural. These lyrics fit the song better and flow more naturally
they did this bullshit but couldn't include the GBA bonus content lmao
The original ost sounds better but this is great
The scene is better but it feels... hollow. Just give me the original.
Nostalgia blind af. it doesn't feel hollow, you just don't have sad nostalgia for the actual singing and not the fake singing noises from the original
How are some 16-bit oh ahs better than actual singing? lol
@@Rutawind because he's sad and lonely and only has a strong connection to nostalgia over actual people
The opera scene. Celes' suicide. Aerith's murder. Zidane's Depression. Cecil's redemption. The final fantasy series has some of the best emotional moments in gaming.
Spoilers 😂
These, Serah’s death in 13-2, the final scene of 15, Palom and Porom turning to stone, Galuf’s death, and countless other in the series
Kain's heel turn...both of em 😅
Damn bro I’m playing the game for the first time and just passed this scene lol I know the game is old af but no need to unload the whole spoiler mag in one comment
@@ForceEdge47 that's spoilers for 5 different games lol
The English version's singer isn't great, but she's not terrible. But does anyone else think the Japanese version sounds awful? It's like icepicks stabbing into my ears.
Solid effort but pales in comparison to the original version.
I disagree. This is better imho
Nostalgia blinders.
I too prefer the original
Agreed. I appreciate the artistry and evolution here. It's very good. There's a lot to like.
But... for me, newer doesn't always mean better.
There was an honesty to the original version 94. You really FELT that this is the first time something like this scene had ever been created.
Video games didn't try for this level of emotion back then.
It stirred the imagination as well as the heart. Made all the more so by the tragedy of her story arch later.
Again, all new concepts. Early transcendence of video games becoming an art form.
Everyone has a different first experience so that will always be nearest to the individual's heart.
And I prefer the original translation lyrics. I find them the most poetic.
Wrong
