- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 พ.ย. 2013
- I couldn't find a version of Viral's (awesome) theme with lyrics anywhere, so I decided to make one. Enjoy!
The ground below my feet elevated
Instinctively programmed there for me
No thoughts my visions clear not too complicated
I'm here because you're here
You've got a problem now!
The speck of fear grows in your eyes
You'll meet your death in no disguise
It may come as a small surprise
There'll be no compromise for you
No problem can't be solved temporarily
Then soon it gets forgot that you exist
Sounds echo underground nauseating
I'm here because you're here
You've got a problem now!
The speck of fear grows in your eyes
You'll meet your death in no disguise
It may come as a small surprise
There will be no compromise for you
All rights of course go to Gainax etcetera etcetera, please support the official release! - บันเทิง
You either die a villan, or gain immortality and become a hero
I'd do the former.
the most underrated comment ever
Viral was always a hero.
^This.
BitchSlay0r Kamina's death was one of the most important moments of the whole show. without it, Simon would never have any meaningful development. And even though I loathe Kamina, I can appreciate how essential he was, but his death was his biggest contribution arguably.
Viral is an immortal, a badass, and above all, a man that wants his god damn helmet back
OMG LOL
He never got it back though.
And a family
He got it back. He became Gurren's pilot.
GURRENS PILOT not laganns :)
Lagann Park: Viral Theory
Your comment is so underrated
ajajjaajja
It does sound a lot like Points of Authority lol
I honestly thought this was a Linkin Park song I never heard when I heard the instrumental used in some other video XD. This definitely sounds like their style, lmao
I'm laughing at this way to much xD
"I'm here because you're here" kind of describes Viral's whole character in the first half, huh
Sandjack yes!!!
Then they tell YOU GOT A PROBLEM NOW just perfectly described how it is each time he shows up
"I'm here because you haven't returned my God Damned Helmet"
-Viral, probably,
I'm a sucker for the cool villain who becomes an ally and Viral is one of the coolest.
Same I love those characters. Jellal is another favorite of mine, Kumagawa too
+FallenZero8 gajeel too.
+hyperdeath84 and what about the Spiral King himself :D
iisthphir Oh yeah, most definitely. His sacrifice at the end was superb.
+hyperdeath84 Note to myself : never scroll too much.
And through the whole story thick and thin he never got his helmet back.
He did when he pilots Gurran(Laggan)
Icarus Reaver as well as in the movie when he gets a new gunmen, with a new crown.
Lol
Pesky humans.
at the end of the story he got a beret.
Anyone else who fuking loves the two pics in the middle of each episode? *-*
Ah. Yes. I love them.
tgjadm That was one of the better things, see most series they do the same thing for so many episodes. Not so with TTGL!
JS Protiva You'll be surprised with what they did for High school DxD.
Ali Haidar Let me guess... boobfest?
tgjadm They are called eyecatches
How can somebody who looses so much be so badass?
your nick,your avatar,that comment...so perfect
ask vegeta that...he basically invented the badass that always loses fight trope in anime
ARandomGuy wich was your avatar when i comment that? i dont remember
***** It was the same as it now, Takamura.
Probably by consistently putting up a fight against TEAM GURREN.
Not even the Four Generals survived more than a few fights each with them.
A surprise attack is just that: a surprise. IT ONLY... WORKS! ONCE!
what if you make a different surprise attack. he wont expect it if its different from last time
Tybust3r Think of it this way; you can sucker punch someone once in a fight, at the start of the fight. Altering the way you throw the next punch doesn't make it a new sucker punch. Same with drawing a hidden weapon. Even if you draw another one, they probably suspected that you still had hidden weapons.
true but it can work sometimes depending on the person and how smart they are.
Tybust3r A Suprise Attack is its own thing, that just means the next Suprise Attack is a different one otherwise it wouldn't be a Suprise Attack.
TheHollowMoon Thats what i meant
Viral had one of the coolest entrances I've seen in an anime.
He deserved it, One of the best characters in the show.
ikr
99% because of Kamina's excruciatingly long sword draw but yes! lol
Fr I just started watched and I've only just barely seen his character in memes and was not expecting such a sudden entrance
@@aihsato He also voices link :O
I can't believe it's not Linkin Park.
CRAWLLLIIIIIING IN MYYYY CRAWWWLLLLLLLL
+Yoshi Kira (Yoshi Yoestar)
It's more like Papercut than Crawling.
P
+BlueJane I'd say it's more like Points of Authority
R.I.P
All he wanted was a family... ;_;
This hit me a little too hard in those feels.
And his helmet
I think by the second half, he's come to terms that he's never getting his helmet back.
Considering he's piloting Gurren in the second half, he actually kinda has gotten his helmet back.
Hey, I didn't come here to cry okay.
When everyone got trapped in their own dreams and his was just to stop fighting and have a wife and child and lead a humble life I was like "Damn. same, dude"
"Ride Wife, life good"
"Wife fake"
"Kill God who made me care about wife"
Genuinely I don't know why but this has stuck with me years later as the most poignant moment of the show despite it being like a 10 second scene and established him as my favorite character
@@youngkappakhan seconded. I just watched GL the first time and I don't think I'll forget that line "I was just having a sappy dream like everyone else"
@@dylanp629 this show is just a big love letter to super robots so if you liked it you should definitely go back through its roots and check out more older super robot stuff like aim for the top, brave series, getter robo (
@@youngkappakhan sounds good 👍
Funfact, Satsuki from Kill La Kill was based off of his mech's design.
slothkingn1 also Tsumugu lines 'i will learn you two fact' (i think its that in english) come from Virals first speech with kamina
and i think the Japanese voice of Viral and Samageyama are the same
Robin Decque same voice as Ikkaku from Bleach :)
i didn't watch or follow bleach since like 5 years but probably
+slothkingn1 clearly you don't rember the naked Prison fiht from the second half
Cook the uncookable, bake the unbakeable. Bro Bro pass the flour
thanks here`s another, poop the unpoopable flush the unflushable bro bro fix the toilet
Clean the uncleanable, wash the unwashable. Bro bro take a shower!
You guys are hilarious xD
do the unbearable
do the unbreathable
bro bro brush you teeth
Vik,Correction Bear the unbearable
Breath the unbreathable
Bro bro Brush your teeth.
Probably the most badass thing about him is that he's perfectly aware he will never be able to tap into the reality breaking power of the universe and fights anyway.
I have to face it. Viral really has balls to do that.
He might later, after he gainedimmortality, because that dream, but yeah , balls
Also the saddest thing about him is that he won't get his dream which is about having a family anymore.
I thought it was confirmed he unlocked spiral power thanks to Simone and friends
@@dragon091327 Correct. He does in the movie version.
Everyone talking about how cool this character is,
But can we take a second to enjoy how FU****G good this song is and how much it kicks your ears with that incredible guitar, sublime bass, brutal drums and fantastic lyrics/vocals
Sounds like Points of authority from Linkin Park.
How fitting.
This song doesn't get enough love smh
Absolute, thats a real Banger!
So good it was used as the menu music in the DVD release.
@@returnedtomonkey8886 not to me
Kamina: If I pulled that helmet off, would you die?
Viral: It would be extremely shameful.
Kamina: You won't make a compromise.
Viral: For you.
Sneedu
Niko/bane/
You're a big guy
comment approved by the Sneed Department
I love your comment dude
seriously, this song PERFECTLY summarizes Viral's personality and beliefs. The badass, yet honorable, warrior who fights to his fullest and strikes fear into the weak.
Chase Randalow yet. The first appearance of this song it was for Kamina
One of the few times when the boss joins the main character's party and wasn't nerfed for plot reasons.
In fact he got even stronger
Because he is a boss intended for level 10 characters, but by the time he joins, the party is level 80.
MFW I JUST REALIZED VIRAL'S NAME IS AN ANAGRAM OF RIVAL
I'M KILLING MYSELF NOW
Lieselotte Aya Goddamn, the creator of both this and kill la kill has no end to those cool subtle themes and clever wordplay. Every little detail is intentional and means something. This one wooshed right over my head too but it's so satisfying when you finally notice it.
@Zombor Viral like a Spiral?
@Zombor yup, virus ;)
@420Praiseit Gitgudneosucksasstoo That's what I thought it meant
your face made you into Gwen Stacy?
I used to listen to this song a lot when I was in severe depression. Helped me a lot.
Viral is my favorite character from Gurren Lagann. His dynamic change in the series was so well done and his perfect world featured in Lagann-Hen brings a tear to my eye every time.
yeah the transition from evil to not evil to good was very well done imo
@@maestrofeli4259 i dont think he's evil, he was just a foot soldier doing his duty
The fact that he is the first beastman to question Lordgenom motive tells me he's a good person from beginning
@@sureyeah3678 that makes sense
@@sureyeah3678eh
"It was such a sappy dream too."
This song will always be badass to me. Viral was such a kickass character, even though he lost like every fight lol, but it's probably his mentality that we all like. His determination to win, he never cried about losing, his anger, and of course this bad ass song were all things that made him the bad ass that he is.
Don't forget his (Japanese, haven't heard the dub) VA, his voice is amazeballs
Karthrim yoooo, at least watch the English dub when Viral comes in his voice matches him in the English (Also Kamina's voice is better in English) please at least watch the first two in English and reply your thoughts
I thought Viral cried once after either the bird boy or scorpion lady died. Also,he looked very sad when Lord Genome told him his immortal body isn't meant for fighting humans,after Simon beat him up
He did kick chickenman ass at least.
@@luniie5172 Ngl, Russian dub is badass too.
Points of Authority with a splash of Don't Stay
YOU GOT A PROBLEM NOW!!!!
Sasaki Haise Yes
Sasaki Haise Yes
Yes
No
Way to spoil it -_-
I love how everything about Virals Character pushes 2 motifs. 1. He's the rival from his name being Rival Backwards to his Gunman being called Enkidu (Gilgamesh's Rival) to the line 'Im here because you're here.' in this song.
And 2. He's designed to be ( though not actually) an Apex Predator. His design takes from Mainly from Cats (even stray cats are a apex predator in most ecosystems). And Abit of Shark with his teeth. As well as most of lyrics in this song .
Like someone in the writing room said : what if our Char character was Catboy with a inferiority complex?
I agree with your analysis but I think they went more for the badger like the honey badger but the cat and shark work to though
@@ajjohnson4684 I'm curious why Honey Badger? Like I get it's usually top of it's food chain but like what design elements?
The reason I said car was his big ass hands and the fact his imaginary wife was a cat girl.
Again not arguing I'm just curious.
@@InShane162 well I say manly from the attitude like fighting with everything he's got whenever he can sort of thing but he is a beastman so maybe hi just wanted a cat wife I don't know interlay
You had me until the last paragraph
@@jagerzaku9160 I'm sorry sir
Star Wars: “Give up Anakin. I have the high ground”
Gurren Lagann: “The ground below my feet elevated”
Same energy.
TheLightningKing Now, this is something original.
bro glad found someone who still listen to this mastapeece
@@haziqakmal2621 This song slaps
DIO during his fight against Jotaro
It's actually the perfect response.
people who are still listening to this are legends
🤟
Viral when he pilots Gurren Laggan for the first time: "Told you I'd get my helmet back."
8 years later still a banger
Truly a great song and a perfect fit for Viral
@@alphasnorlax184 yes
I think my favorite moment in all of Gurren Lagann is when Simon and Viral get broken out of jail
And after years of feuding and having been at each others throats mere moments prior,
Simon’s just like
“Wanna help me save the universe?”
“Bet”
Viral is by far my favorite character from this anime, I just love him *-*
Andrea Marcano agreed
Me too.
A lot of people love kamina, but viral is so perfect
Me too.
Yo this REALLY gave my LP vibes
Let me remind you that Viral one of the best badasses in anime history is a cat Beastman.
+Jay M (JokerJay779) Im usually not a cat-person in animes but Viral is on a whle different level... Fuckin badass
Dennis Kunz
Indeed.
+Jay M (JokerJay779) actually he's half cat half shark
*****
Are you sure he is half shark?
Jay M it says it on the first line of his wiki page
Guys he’s still pulling out his katana, what do I do?
Great song. Great character.
Agreed
is it bad that i unironically love how edgy this song is
@Hans Hanzo And why something edgy can't be epic?
edginess is not an inherently bad thing imo
i don't get why many people think that edginess is a bad thing. there are many games, shows and characters that are edgy and good, even great sometimes. edginess is a good thing when it's executed successfully.
@@justsomeguyontheinternet562 lol i see that ratchet deadlocked is a good example of this aghahahahaha, nice pfp btw^^
@@chickenanims9895 thanks.
Viral was always my favourite character. You can’t help respect his warrior outlook and how he never compromises his own code of honour.
Years later this beat is still pumpin'.
Years later it still be pumpin my man
@@cianos9011 A year later still pumpin my dude!
The way he names his gunman is cute,tho.
Enki
Enkidu
Enkidudu XD
TheKalluto Read up on your mesopotamian mythology. Tha last one is a good pun though lol.
+OMGEpyonistaken Now Imagine if you will, A Gilgamesh Gunman.
Well, in reality is a tribute to the mangaka Enki Bilal (in japanese you cam read in the same way Viral and Bilal)
+OMGEpyonistaken Not as good as his Teggen Toppa Mech in "the lights in the sky are stares" movie. is "Enki Durga." which as 14 arms. which is the Hindu god Durga's ammount 10 plus the amount Enkidudu had
isnt that the name of Gilgamesh best friend?
This guy is villain, unbreakable, immortal, criminal, prisoner and most importantly a HERO!
Forfeit the game, before somebody else takes you out of the frame
And put your name on the shame
Cover up your face
You can't run the race
The pace is too fast
You just won't last!
The Fantom Convoy "Don't Stay" like beats and Points of Authority
No it sounds way more like disturbed down with the sickness
They actually have this crossover mashed up floating around on TH-cam here, and it works as perfectly as you'd imagine
@@beauxrathburn Does that one have record scratches and is it on the same phrygian key as the LP stuff?
Proof that even in the inferior beastmen, a Badger's resilience and lust for battle put it far above anything else. To the point where Viral became the only Beastman to be able to fight alongside Team Gurren Lagann.
Necrobadger he's a badger?
Unless I'm mistaken, isn't he a mix of shark and feline?
@@splashketchum5011 Yup Viral is based on honey badgers. Which explains why he absolutely batshit awesome.
Viral isn't a honey badger, though. He's a shark-cat hybrid.
@@DaRkLoRdZoRc a honey badger is just a weasel with the spiteful heart of a shark-cat hybrid.
had to listen to this since Viral's actually my favorite character :3
Same
+MrPlatinumboii Same.
Same
Same
From enemy to anti-hero then hero
His dream was only to have a peaceful life and family, it hit me right in the feels
I'm listing to this with headphones and the volume 100% on both my computer and youtube... Still not loud enough...
Then throw out common sense and do the impossible so that you can get it loud enough.
Rika Furude
I need more spiral energy!
InebriatedGalvatron Believe in the you that believes in yourself!
Rika Furude
Mark my words. These decibels will open a hole in my eardrums! And that hole will be a path for the music behind us! The nostalgia of the music that has fallen, the anticipation of the music that will follow! Those two sets of feels weave together into a legendary medley! Playing a path towards our ears! And that's Mimi (ear) Toppa (Piercing)! That's Ongaku (music) Shifuku (bliss)! This song is the song that will pierce the eardrums!!!!
InebriatedGalvatron Eardrums themselves shall continue to spiral onwards to handle them, and one day soon handle any sound in the universe!
All these years later this is still my favorite Linkin Park song.
Viral just gets better the more and more I think about him.
In the end, he got his helmet back, and that's what matters
am i the only one who thought viral was super awesome seriously he gets the crap beaten out of him two much well at least to me
Viral is sick as hell.
+Foye McLemore IMO he is not just awesome,he is my favourite character in the entire anime.
+Foye McLemore why would he not be awesome? hes badassery in beastman form... and he gets to pilot gurren.
+blucookie And Kittan. Can't forget about Kittan, man.
+Foye McLemore Too* not two.
The beginning sounds like Linkin Park.
like the album "hybrid theory" yep
+Vegas Vanga It's also funny to see people accepting they are cunts.
+Vegas Vanga Don't worry dude i ain't crying. And i don't blame you for not liking Linkin Park (as it's not problem) or making the internet worse than it already is, i only complain for your relatives :)
+Farmiluc SAVAGE
+OmegaBlack2609 It's the same genre tho, lol
Viral got his own theme how fucking cool is that
If you told me this was a song on Hybrid Theory I wouldn't have any reason to think otherwise.
I’ll tell you two things: first any human on the surface will be completely annihilated by our human eradication army. Second that is my dinner - give it back!
You know s*** gets real when you hear this
Yoko's song : pure happiness and joy
Yoko in the anime : a badass teenager sniper baddie
Viral in the anime : a loser that keeps fleeing ( and didn't got his helmet back )
Viral's theme : *YOU'LL MEET YOUR DEATH IN NO DISGUISE*
0:47 im here because your hair

#CanNeverUnhear

lol
(continues with real lyrics) YOU'VE GOT A PROBLEM NOW!!! xD
Least intense time gate 1v1:

Viral is by fair one of the most badass villains turn antiheroes ever to me. He was a fierce soldier who did everything he could to complete his orders. He never gave up because of his pride but never forget what made him a warrior. even after being gifted immortality he held his old values. But when you think he still wants man dead. He actually starts to help them live their old lives instead of being forced out. He could have tried to keeo a peaceful life but gave it up to save all life. I wish he had a series all about him
My favourite character in the show
Me too, and Rossio
Viral may lose a lot, but he sure as hell aint out! Such a hardass he is...
A lot of people didn't know that the voice actor that played viral voiced Clovis from code geass
+dj emery really?
+Jorge Corea yep in the dubs
+dj emery He also makes all of Links grunts from most Legend of Zelda games. Yup
+dj emery He played in a whole lot of shows...
+dj emery He also did Edward Elric in Fullmetal Alchemist.
*WHY. IS. ANIME. MUSIC. SO. GOOD*
a villain so bad ass they gave him his own theme song
"Sneak attacks only work once"
*Immediately spends the rest of the series getting bodied by them*
10/10 character
RIP Chester Bennington.
Wait, this ISN'T Linkin Park?
"So that was just a dream"
The ground below my feet elevated,
Instinctively programmed there for me,

Not too complicated,

They'll be no compromise for you!
No problem can't be solved temporarily,
Then soon it gets forgot,
That you exist,
Sounds echo underground nauseating,

i have a couple of requirements of badass characters and Viral meets all of them
One of the best themes in anime history
That's my alarm song.....for 3 consecutive friggin alarms...so I can wake up to go to work.
seriously? You picked an awesome alarm
ashrafnfs How do you get anything done with your alarm? I've listened to this on repeat for an hour while procrastinating my bio exam prep.
ashrafnfs My alarm is "Little V's" redo of Gamagorie's theme from kill la kill...but my ring tone is now this on both work cell and personal phone....
+UnlimitedBlades Weasel did you pass that exam by any chance? :DD
pure linking park
This track never gets old.
Viral is still one of my favorite characters of all time.
viral has such a cool theme so badass
Imagine if Gladion's theme from Pokémon Sun/Moon was this edgy.
KSound Kaiju I can only hear virals voice when gladdion speaks in Pokémon moon, no other voice fits him
Michael Babbitt amen amen
Michael Babbitt I picture him sounding like Genos from One Punch Man
KSound Kaiju yeah gladion theme will be edgy
KSound Kaiju it already to edgy.
Thanks been lookin for this for a while
I haven't watched Gurren Lagann and this came up in my auto play at 2am, but holy fuck this shit goes hard
This is your sign to watch it, You won't be disappointed.
THERE WILL BE NO COMPROMISE
so how was the anime?
It if you don't say great it's BLASPHMY!
@@kevinerbs2778 I haven't watched it yet... I'm watching One Piece rn amongst a few other thing, just finished 7ds:4kota and jobless season 2 part 2 so I'll probably watch it soon
This song give me Linkin Park vibes)))
I honestly did not know until Childhoods End the movie that Viral was voiced by the same guy who does Link from Legend of Zelda's grunts. It was a tremendous mind blowing moment, it was damn awesome as well for me. Yup
Funny enough at the end of his imaginary world vision with his catgirl wife and daughter, he does hops and jumps making some Link sounds lol.
_"That is my dinner"_
THE GROUND BELOW MY FEET, ELEVATEEDDD!!!
INSTINCTIVELY PROGRAMMED, THERE FOR MEEEEEEHHH-
NO THOUGHTS MY VISION CLEEEARRRR-
Points of authority 2 electric boogaloo
viral park- points of nikoruity
*screaming Hiei voice!!*
I liked Viral but I wish they did more with him in the first arc. I thought he was going to be some sort of royalty or something but he was basically just a midboss henchman.
Viral is an anagram for rival
“This is how a compilation episode is done!”
Badass
This is literally just Linkin Park lmfao.
Скрытые атаки хороши только своей скрытностью
All he wanted was the Triforce... ;_;
And his mech's helmet
ugh this brings back so many wonderful memories this is literally my favorite song from the OST.
Viral is my favorite character I have been on and off with characters but since I first saw him he has been my favorite and always will be
Sounds like Linkin Park. Hybrid Theory.
Fun fact. His voice actor does alot of Links voices from Zelda.
only the OoT Link tho.
Rossiu voiced a Zelda too. And a certain Luminary...
BTW Viral is also the voice of Erdrick and Erdwin...
There's also Leeron as Sylvando, Old Simon as King Carnelian, and Kamina as... well... Tetsu, Jormun and Abominable Showman.
That's a lot of GL bois in DQXI.
Awesome! I love it :D
