This game was talking about memes before memes were really MEMES
Kinda like Metal gear solid 2, the whole theme for this one was memes.
@@brotbrotsen1100 Both use the term not to refer to recurring motifs of comical internet edits, but rather a closer homage to it's roots in evolutionary psychology and anthropology. But it's still hilarious in retrospect.
@@Eternal-pj8zh Yeah i know, when i first played MGS 2 i didn't even knew about the comedic memes, if they even were on the scale of today back then.
Meme theory was developed originally by Richard Dawkins in the '70s.
It shows how powerful memes really are
I find it funny how in this world where people can summon and turn into huge, city-sized dragon things, the most consistently dangerous object is just real-ass guns
Cause real guns cant be stoppesd by imagination or soul
They are devices that work solely based on RG physics so laws that affect other planes cant stop em.
In other words: you can imagine magic all you want, but if you dont utilize the physics/code of the world you're in, you cant do shit.
@@ordinarytree4678 Persona 3 have similar subplot.
Only in the UG. In the RG, I’m pretty sure reaper have no power, so a gun work well
"resolving the dispute with memes"
One of the coolest RPGs you've probably never played.
My favorite DS game even though I played it in the most scuffed way possible. I didn't understand the food mechanic and thought it was only temp buff so I never ate anything. Shit got really hard on last few bosses lol.
You’re wrong I never played it.
@@unknowingreaper6556 I emulated it
Ds is my great nostalgia for this game, I’ve played it all night
It’s up there for me with Doom eternal, Metroid prime, KH2, smash, majoras mask, and skyrim all being contenders for my favorite game ever.
4:34 You forgot to mention that Uzuki actually says that if Neku didn't kill Shiki in the allotted time she gives him, she would kill him herself, which means that Neku was stuck between a do-or-die situation. This is a part of why Shiki forgives Neku because she felt that he basically had no choice in the matter.
Well, don't forget the part where Neku was hesitating on killing her, until Uzuki told him Shiki was a Reaper spy without any real evidence and that was enough to convince him to go through with it despite Shiki's pleas. Regardless, Neku took the deal. Like Hanekoma said, Neku was a fool for taking the bait and foolish for not trusting his partner.
bugchungus do you like big bugs
meanwhile the writers of the anime: “bro it was noise possession bro they can do that in the UG now bro trust me bro”
@@DiscountYT read the secret reports, it's written noise can possess people in the UG and RG including reapers
@@songhill6962 oh ok, thanks for the correction. on the other hand, i'm still not happy about how they changed neku's internal conflict to just "he can't help it because the noise got to him." it's still made to be that he had a lot of negative emotions and desperation, which is how the noise take over, but it makes his character in week 1 seem very different to me.
Kitaniji is probably one of my favorite main antagonists, and it's almost entirely due to that one flashback. It's so obvious that he genuinely loves Shibuya, going as far as immediately accepting the risk of complete erasure if it meant a chance to save Shibuya -something he, technically, succeeds in as well. Furthermore, he is something of a true reversal of Neku, going as far as having design similarities with the protagonist (namely, the headphones). While Neku begins as a stubborn, close-minded and arrogant person who eventually becomes a far more accepting and friendly guy, Kitaniji is simply flipped; showing signs of genuine appreciation for both the city of Shibuya and its people in the flashback to the point of actual love -but is later (earlier, in terms of gameplay) seen treating people more as if they were some kind of pests infesting the city he was tasked with saving.
I assume it's sorta accepted at this point, but I remember back when I first beat the game years ago thinking that Kitaniji's entry fee was his "love for Shibuya/its people" or something along those lines, and that this loss of his love of it/them ultimately resulted in his losing the Game. He's not exactly the most fleshed out character I've ever seen, but what is seen is enough for me to look at him and just feel a little bad for him, you know? He was so quick to risk his very existence to save Shibuya, but the Game he played to do so was practically rigged from the start...
Again, though, I still feel like he 'won'. He was willing to risk erasure to save Shibuya. He may have been erased, but Shibuya was saved.
...and then Coco happens, I guess. Oh well.
Edit: Lolita Bat is the best Pin, don't @ me.
Damn, I didn't even think about that side of things. Great point; I look at him in a completely different light now.
That new arc with Coco is pretty pointless to me the game was already good and perfectly closed. It was not necessary at all. I had the same feeling with "The Answer" in P3.
@@lokasocba it’s not pointless considering who she REVIVED 😈
Might be a bit late replying to this but this is a genuinely interesting take which I never considered but does make a lot of sense.
Especially the part about them mirroring each other with their outlooks and how they start with almost polar opposite views. This is shown in how they wear the one main similarity in their design, the headphones. Neku wears his over his ears shutting everything out whilst Kitaniji has his lowered around his neck, showing his acceptance of the "noise".
@@lokasocba hoo boy
Thank you, Patrons who voted for this title. I have to admit, this one took longer than expected (it's a rather grindy game). So, Technically this is a one-off game, even though a sequel is coming sometime in the future. Before anyone says anything, I am aware I said 777's name as 7-7-7 and not Triple 7 like its supposed to, honest mistake. Also, there is a subtle time I only caught where I say Hanekuma instead of Hanekoma, but the timing of it is almost appropriate, so I left it in (call it a happy accident). Otherwise, I wanted to leave in some side stuff like Makoto's arc, but it was getting long and really wasn't crucial to the central story. Personally, I feel the switch version is fine, and I like some of the remixed tracks more than the original, though I kept the original versions in this video. Please enjoy and look forward to Neo: The World Ends with You.
Next RECAPitation will be: Killer7
Killer7, yay!
YESSSSSS
45:30 Coco drags Beat and Neku to the UG, not the RG
Amazing coverage of this game. I loved this game for the DS but never knew anyone who played it. I actively wear pins from this franchise to this day lol.
Weird question, the Narrator has the same name of someone I am familiar with in the Tekken community who made the Tekken Chicken app. Can't be the same guy could it???
46:24 nvm, what was Coco referring to in the previous timestamp, if she initially sent Beat and Neku to a pseudo-parallel world?
46:39: The World Ends with You, Morioh Edition
Was looking for a comment like this
It is a crazy noisy bizarre Shibuya (?)
The secret reports sounded very kingdom hearts-ty
Funnily enough they're IN Kingdom Hearts, but it wasn't a very big part.
same director
@@bryanyap3888 Nomura was creative producer, not director. The actual director was Tatsuya Kando.
@@thebigchungus4515 Considering the dude workload, pretty easy to make that mistake
They're part of the same extended universe. You'll see.
Great. I need a refresher of the story before the sequel comes out.
Or just wait for the anime
@@erichfiedler1481 wait there is an anime continuing from this game? a sequel anime??
@@Imblu95 its an anime of the first game. 4 episodes so far
@@solidsnake7023 what's it called?
@@artin9835" japanese name of The World Ends With You" The Animation
Honestly, ghr final scene between Joshua and Hanakoma on the new day was intresting, especially for Joshua, because when he says it's doesn't matter that Neku has died, he days it like he doesn't really believe it, and secondly, it directly contradict his actions as he was clearly rushing to where Neku and Beat were, which could be read as him attempting to save Neku. Joshua is great as a character because you can never truly tell what's going on with him, but it was a nice character touch because although he says he doesn't care about Neku his actions clearly state otherwise and you can tell ots a point of conflict for him.
The Game:
Avoid the Tabuu Noise and Survive until the Anime airs on April 9th.
Fail, and face Erasure.
-The Reapers
I've played thousands of games in my day ranging from Zelda to The Last Of Us to The Witcher and I can safely say this is my favorite game of all time. If you've never played it, please do. I don't think a game has ever genuinely made me crack up at times or sick to my stomach in tears or tensed me up for antagonist encounters like this. You literally feel Neku's pain and it's crazy watching him grow.
I love this game to death, and obviously I remembered the drama and amazing character moments. But replaying the game recently, I realized that I totally forgot how FUNNY this game is. There was so many laugh out loud moments, especially with Neku's inner dialogue, Beat's smooth brain, and Joshua being a cocky, snarky asshole. Even Shiki has some great hilarious moments, although her character is more cute than funny. Need I mention Another Day? I really hope the sequel lives up to this game, since it has some huge shoes to fill.
Fans: Can we plz hav sequel?
Square Enix: **crickets**
(13 years later)
Square Enix: .........how about a sequel and an anime?
Fans: **JOYOUS SCREAMING**
Well we got a remake (sorta), an anime and the sequel!
The fact its was XIII years later makes me SUPER suspicious.
@@OneColdRepublican Prepare to meet Sora in the post-game as a teaser for KH4 (haven't played NEO so i dunno if that actually happens, wouldn't be surprised though lol)
I know the game is being recapped here but the background music is too damn catchy to pay attention.
TWEWY Is one of my favorite games.
I have yet to actually play the Switch version but that extra story and the secret reports are definitely interesting. I'm super excited for the next game.
In short Joshua put Neku through a shit ton of traumatic stuff because he didn't want to branch out to people, while in reality it's a completely different story you absolutely can't trust anyone ever.
I played this when I was like 13 on the ds and thought the game was really long, decided to replay it again on an emulator and was surprised that it was actually so short, I just didn't know how the entire battle system works so it took me longer back then. Glad that they decided to make a sequel on my favorite ds game of all time.
"Rhyme explains to Shiki what memes are"
Yeah, they're the DNA of the soul.
I loved this game, never got past the final boss though, I loved seeing the cast in KH3D despite how awkward that game's story was. Great work as always sir.
The World Ends with You 2. A new game, new Players, new Reapers, and new set of Days. Let’s Survive.
NEO: The World Ends With You.
It Exists.
@@pugsgotgaming7773 I can't believe they missed the opportunity to call it "The World Ends With 2"
@@DrDirtyLeggz lol yeah and instead of focusing on just 1 persons journey (like neku) it would focus on 2 people maybe together idk but yeah that would have been better.
@@DrDirtyLeggz I kinda like it because I read it as "The World Ends With You, Too" haha
@@Ari-hk7oi Oh, that's a good one!
Been looking foward to this
Twewy is my favorite game of all time and I'm glad to see you cover it
The characters, enemy, and gameplay designs are top notch, and never seen before, love the animal and tribal tattoo motifs
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS OMGGGGGG
This is the greatest video game of all time please play it
THIS GAME IS SO GOOD PLAY IT
Agreeded? Man I really want to play it on my DS if I can find it.
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! THANK YOU
Here from NicoB! Thank you for the recap ^_^
Absolutely excellent for picking up a playthrough after an extended break, well done good sir
Can you please do other SMT/Persona games in the future? I really loved your Persona 1 video
I could see a lot of the ideas presented in the secret reports shaping the Kingdom Hearts series going forward from KH3
6:48 "They come across Beat and Rhyme and Rhyme explains to Shiki what memes are".
Love these videos bud nice job, thanks for the treat.
6:50
Rhyme tells Shiki about the power of shitposting
Thank you for another awesome video!!!
Newer people that are watching this: PLEASE PLAY THIS GAME!IT'S SO UNDERRATED AND DEFINITELY WORTH YOUR TIME, not many people know about this game and I say it's a crime, if you want it for switch play in portable mode want it for DS emulate it or actually get it for DS, just please play it, you won't regret your decision
I'd so wanted to play this game for so long, I finally dropped $18 on the mobile version. Loving it so far!
AW YEAH. THIS IS HAPPENING.
yeah bigchugus you there?
the big chungus
This really helped! Been a while since I played the DS and Switch version (plus i no longer own it) so this recap was a good refresher. Super stoked for NEO TWEWY!
Gonna flip all your discs, Susukichi!
Thank you for your summary! Now, we are ready for the sequel !!
I had always heard good things about this game, so it actually ended up being the first game I got on my Switch. Ya know, aside from Smash, but I got that WITH my Switch so that doesn't count.
Anyways, I only made it to Day 7 of the first game so it was really interesting to see how the rest of it played out.
Its funny, towards the end when you hit us with, "As the game concludes..." I'm over here like, "What do you MEAN conclude?? Shibuya was just erased?? What???"
I now understand why people compare this series to Kingdom Hearts lol ya know, aside from the art style.
Considering Nomura came out said if sales of final remix were decent we'd get a sequel if not that was it no more tries?
Thank you for making this video bro, you're the best
I love your recaps!
Waiting for the soul reaver LoK series.
I didn't even think the symbols carrying the Noise are graffiti but it makes perfect sense in the context of the game. Wow. Less than a minute in, and I'm seeing insightful takes on this game's storyline. While I've never been enthralled by the gameplay of either version, a RECAP of this story has been overdue because the tale is ultimately why I continued playing this game to begin with. It is an example of superbly done world-building, establishing the rules of said world, and everything that follows consistently obeys those parameters. While the beginning is exposition heavy, the last two thirds of the game give new revelations and realizations with much better pacing.
I have to compliment Neku's character development in this game. From his darkest moment of Force Choking Shiki to admitting that he can't forgive Joshua but still trusts in him, he is a completely different person because of the journey we endured with him.
Now this new episode that I've never seen... All the world building I had complimented on seemed to be tossed out the window for the sake of baiting a sequel. I'm a little perturbed by all this nonsense, and the resurrection of Sho simply makes being erased/dying rather trivial. In basic terms, I'm not a fan, but I still love the game's tale overall.
Thank you very much for this RECAPitation, and I'll meet you on the next Playground - I mean, the next battlefield.
I needed a refresher before NEO and I must say: Thank you so much!
Can you please do tales of destiny recap? It’s one of my fav game and brings back lots of memories...
The whole game plot
18:30
Came after playing the sequal Neo: the world ends with you. They really tied the two stories well for a satisfying ending.
As great as this video is, my mind just melted. XD
I was told this game was great years ago but didn't have a DS at the time so this was nice surprise.
BREATH OF FIRE 2
I'm in the middle of playing NEO and it's so nostalgic, man.
Oh, I'm looking forward to this
love it and will do a recapitation to neo The World Ends with You?
Just Used this as a refresher before NEO
Same, I’m so excited to finally play NEO. I still can’t believe they made a sequel for this game.
The World Ends with You is beautiful makes me wanna play it but I know there's a good chance I'd probably never finish it unfortunately
The story continues in Neo: The World Ends With You
Why the fuck wasn't I subscribed to this? I really enjoy your content bro, I liked your video on automata and xenogears a lot.
I didn't know this game was that deep
Mad respect for dealing with such continuity confusion
why the FUCK am i just now finding out about this remaster?
to hell with replaying this on a DS emulator...
now we can replay it on a switch emulator B)
"unimpressed at their zetta slowness" I love this.
SO EXCITED FOR THIS
I needed to watch this video since the game got pretty grindy after you get to collect the reports. I kinda gave up since i realized that A new day is not available in the DS version and therefore there wouldn't be a secret epic boss after all the grind and sweat and tears (looking at you, Kitanaji no.87 boss on week 1). It was nice watching this from the guy who made me understand KH'S Story. Although I still need to watch the cinematics and all the stuff he didn't cover (maybe because it's not vital to the story, I'm talking about some cinematics and dialogues), I think I'm ready to play NEO now.
Zetta Cool. Thanks for making this
Heh, get outta here zeptogram
i remember playing this on the DS, but i didn't know wtf was happening
So I am guessing the later content is from the updated switch version?
Question still unanswered:
Where do the Taboo Noise originate from?
How did Sho know so much about everything even when he was alive?
We might get answers to that
Literally just beat this game today, pretty funny timing Haha
I just finished it
I didn't get past the first stage since I was just a clueless kid
its actually on my phone! (solo remix).. nice to see the extra....extra ... content
I'm going to miss the premiere because I'm at work
You were here in spirit
Omg I’m excited for this
All caught up for NEO LETS GOOO
It's great to see one of my all time favoirte games get some more spotlight, Here's hoping the Anime and NEO stick the landing , it's been so long since the series got anything so im really hoping this means something good and not another 13 years of nothing
Level imaginary Zetta flare, Donald Duck would like talk with you
This game is best played on the DS with the stylus the “Remaster” is very weird to get used to decent but definitely not how it was supposed to be played do yourselves a favour if you can GET THIS GAME! Never thought I’d fall in love with a DS game like this first tattoo also when I got older
I disagree, having all 3 versions, I much prefer the Solo/Final Remix versions.
But I agree that if one can get the game they very much should! Such a great experience!
when i replayed this when it came to switch and saw they were called memes this whole time..
I never play more than 2 hours when it came out in the Ds (never like touch games) but years later my friend let me borrow the switch copy and i beat it. Didn't have time to 100% it or play the extra episode. But what i can say is. I freaking hate you JOSHUA. That ending gave me such a void in me, after they revealed what he was and what he did.
This game is a masterpiece
5th time I watched this, I think it makes the game more interesting than the game itself lol
Hopefully, Oni will make a NEO vid someday 😊
One game that actually is fun on the cell phone.
42:28 for A New Day summary
Are you going to do a recap of NEO TWEWY?
While waiting for the Switch sequel...
What a wonderful time...
I like how he just *had* to mention stealing Minamimotos hat
enjoyed this more than going through it
the sequel however improves upon all the meh of this one. which im happy with.
Crazy noisy bizarre district. Accurate, but a reference? Hmm.
Christ.... well Sora and Neku kinda had something somewhat in common 😅 they both died and vanished at the end of their major journey. The parallel
Sho is my favorite Reaper. Change my damn Zeta mind!
No need
XD
Just asking: is a Persona 2 Innocent Sin Recapitation in your list of things to do? I really liked the first one, and I would like to watch more
Yes
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO
Cousin had it. Managed up to week 1 day 4, couldn't get past the shark as a kid
cant wait for the next installment coming in june
Can you do a racap on the game Overblood or Baroque?
The Secret Reports remind me of KH3 & Remind
Neo: TWEWY is out! ;)
So if I wanted to play this game before the sequel comes out, this is the recommended version right?
Yes
its hard to play in phone with ds emulator
I'm so damn lost, i don't understand that new ending.
So they decided not to tie it to Kingdom Hearts. That's surprising given Dream Drop Distance.
Thank God! I love Nomura's designs and ideas but KH is kind of a mess plot wise. I hope he lets his IP's have their own identity rather than try to weld together seperate ideas like he tried with FF15 and KH ReMind.
Still wish we got Versus 13 or Verum rex as they were planned tho
I'm so happy because I didn't want a bunch of kingdom hearts fans trying to gatekeep a game if they don't even know about
Obviously not lol.
Neku is nothing but a cameo in KH.
Um their appearance in 3D is another version them not the game’s version given the dialogue
@@sudohnim1275 don’t you mean complex lore?
I was honna wait till i beat the game but i was half finished but my progress got deleted......so.......im probably not gonna finish that anytime soon.
When I saw that everyone was alive, I was so happy! even so relieved to see them reunited! but when Coco comes and kills Nezu and makes everything into chains...
Me : Ah.. never mind i'm tired /Holds a knife wanna kill Coco/
Tfw I played for like 30 minutes and fell off, but im hooked by NEO
Ain't gonna lie I liked this recap more than playing the game... RECAPItation of twewy:n when?
