The battle music against battling imps, demons, and devils. This is serious stuff, man! Copyrights to Okami belong to former Clover, ReadyatDawn Studios (for Wii port), and ultimately Capcom.
imagine they add ameterasu along with a dark souls character. that way we can reenact the boss fight against sif in smash bros. (assuming they have her using the sword weapon)
Fun fact: this song utilizes some african percussive instruments, "since African percussion instruments give an impression of the earth, it fits Amaterasu who runs on the earth and the atmosphere of the battles", as said by the composer in an interview
Personally, I find it nice this music doesn't re-start if you get into fights in relatively quick succession; it just fades in again when th next battle starts from the point it left off. And obligatory weapon preference comment: I'm actually hooked on using glaives as a main and 2:1 reflectors to rosaries as a sub. The glaive was really off-putting at first, but once you get the rythym of the attacks down, it's an extremely satisfying weapon.
I downloaded this game for my Switch (it was on sale at the Eshop)and god damn is this the most gorgeous game I've ever played. The graphics, the music the compelling story...everything is so gorgeous.
Main: Rosaries for racking up combos and, thus, godhood. Glaives for dealing with enemies that are down for long periods of time (like certain bosses). Reflectors for a balance of power and speed. Sub: Rosaries for abusing ink bullet......................................................POW! Glaives for sword-surfing fun. Reflector, "A good defense is the best offense."
Reflector x Reflector. Not only do you have a decent combo in air and on ground, but defense, AND and attack made from that defense. Perfectly balanced moveset.
This has comments as old as eleven years ago and as recent as a few months ago, so I guess it's valid to still comment? Main: reflectors at first, then felt at home with glaives. It's so fun to jump above enemies damaging them with that one dojo technique, then unleashing that falling slash-stomp!! Sub: rosaries, specially those that fire one "bullet" at a time. Good for a distance and I feel they're more reliable. I was very thankful that Tundra Beads were of this type. Bonus: I'm yet to go through the second and third Black Devil's Gate challenges, but I used Whirlwind during most of the ones in Ryoshima's to hilarious and ungodly (pun not intended!) effects. I doubt it'll be as reliable for stronger Devil's Gate challenges, though...
There is some african percussion present tho, there to give the song an impression of "earth" to the atmosphere of the battles, as said by the composer in an interview
One of the little things I love about this game is the drum beat at the 10-second mark or so. That riff appears in several of the other early level fight themes on the soundtrack, and somehow it feels kind of like the pre-battle handshake, getting you into the headspace for a fight.
after years, I started playing this game again. I have found myself entering in normal battles just for the sake of listening to Amaterasu exorcise devils with this on the bg. Oh, also, since everyone is saying their equipments of choice... I go glaive/main, rosary/sub. I find glaives dealing quite some damage, and don't really allow any flinch to enemies, as they get downed before it triggers. Rosaries are just auxiliary weapons for some chip damage from safe distance.
Rosary as main and reflector as sub! The shield is SUPER useful and I usually like to keep my attacks long-range so the rosary is useful :D (occasianally i switch to glaive for sub if im feeling for quicker fights :D )
I remember liking rosaries the best, cause i could never figure out the other weapons cause i skipped the tutorial dialogue 😓 it was only until the end of the game that i figured out i could press z to use my sub weapon.
My main usually varies, but I *always* use Rosaries as subs. I was never good with Glaives, and I can do just fine without them. In Devil Gate Trials, I use Rosaries as my main for Godhood and the Bead String damage bonus. Add that to some Steel Fist Sake and maybe the String of Beads, and everything dies without trouble. Everywhere else in the game, though, I set Reflectors as my main.
thunder edge helps SO MUCH when you're in that one place doing the demon gate over and over ten times to get a stray bead, by the way, an easy way of beating a blue cyclops (blue stone face one eye with wings with a pipe) but ONLY do that when you have the most powerful weapon in the game equip that as main and equip thunder edge as sub
I love swords, so I usually used glaives as both main and sub. Sword-surfing is fun. My favourite is the Blade of Kusanagi due to its jade green colour. I sometimes changed my sub to rosaries 'cause I love shooting bullets at the enemies. I rarely used the reflectors, but I absolutely love the design and enchanting movement of the Infinity Judge.
God, the fckn Trials. The only Reason i keep stacking up the Sake, the Ink Stones and the Retributions throuout the entire Game so that i don't have to grind them later.
As you walk among the dark path... You see nothing but a pitch black nothingness... Then... You ran... As fast as you can... But you were never moving... Now you are in my hands... You Allowed the pitch black darkness to shallow you...
I use Rosaries as my main and Glaives as my Sub...surfing on a sword makes the harder fights easier and I need to get some God Hood so Rosaries are ideal
Since everyone's sharing their weapon main- I enjoy glaives as main and rosaries as sub, so I can shoot from afar and build up Godhood, then slash the enemy to ribbons once they get close. Although double glaives are nice once you get the dojo technique that strengthens them both!
I usually use glavies as my main and a eflector as my sub, seeing as how reflectors act as sheilds. i almost never change it, i'm too used to pressing (triangle i think for the ps2 xD) triangle and reflecting the attacks. once i changed it to the beads and almost got killed. (i was fighting Ninetails :P)
I REQUIRE AMATERASU IN SMASH BECAUSE IF THERE IS NO AMATERASU, I WON'T PLAY I AM BORED WITHOUT AMATERASU BECAUSE SHE INSPIRED ME WITH HER JAPANESE POWERS AND STUFF!!!
I usually fought with the Tundra Beads and had the Solar Flare as a sub if things got serious, like when you had to fight the multiple Nagis for that one stray bead... but if Im just having fun I liked to use a glaive or two. :P
@BoltFraction Second'd. The final hit with the multiple quick strikes is always satisfying. They seem nicer to wear as well, the beads are a little off putting and the only reflector I like is the first one, since that's Ammy's look!
everyone's saying their weapons so i use all rosaries bc i like range and speed for fighting in almost all fight games and i never use sub weapons and rosaries look the coolest as subs
Imagine being a Demon in ancient Japan, having fun making whole village sick because you thought all Gods were long dead, and then you hear this.
Imp: That wolf coming at me has some strange taste in body ar-
As a selectable Smash character, this wolf would whoop everybody's asses.
YAAAAAASSS WE NEED AMATERASU IN SMASH
So would Shadow Man from Mega Man 3 And Magna Centipede From Mega Man X2
Her moveset would easily be the most original of the game
imagine they add ameterasu along with a dark souls character. that way we can reenact the boss fight against sif in smash bros. (assuming they have her using the sword weapon)
@@gigaswardblade7261 I can see it now
"Oh boy another swordie
...wait... a swordie dog?"
Fun fact: this song utilizes some african percussive instruments, "since African percussion instruments give an impression of the earth, it fits Amaterasu who runs on the earth and the atmosphere of the battles", as said by the composer in an interview
Can you link the interview? I'd love to read it
Screw waluigi, Amaterasu needs to be the next dlc fighter
It won't happen also they both deserve it
@@baconlovingvampire4523 idk, okami is pretty popular, and capcom seems perfectly fine with allowing their characters into smash.
fuck waluigi
all my homies hate waluigi
Capcom has a lot of representation in the roster already, but they have great characters!
...if only their business practices matched that.
Amaterasu for smash would be awesome
imagine the music they’d add in
Meanings of the kanji appearing on the barriers:
魔 - demon, evil spirit, spell, devil; 凶 - evil; 鬼 - demon, oni, devil; 死 - death; 闇 - darkness; 暗 - dark; 無 - nothing, naught; 病 - disease; 呪 - curse; 怨 - grudge; 悪 - bad, evil; 怪 - mysterious, suspicious; 厄 - misfortune, mischief, disaster; 憎 - hatred; 駄 - inferior, poor, useless, no-good
That's really cool. Thanks!! The detail in this game is so amazing.
Oh my gosh!!! Thank you! I was just wondering about that!!!! ❤️
bad stuff, bad stuff, bad stuff, bad stuff
All the bad things combined into one arena. Wow Amaterasu is always so brave to fight this
Ah yes, I remember the Kanji for "bad" very well. Sanosuke used to wear it on his shirt.
AKA "the song that will always end at around 0:44 when fighting imps from mid game onward"
Ikr
Ha! Especially if you're on your second run and you have the String of Beads.
@@frosted_glaceon5513 lol I think at that point, the song would end long before 0:30
The Trials are the only Places were goes on for longer
That moment when a demon scroll gets you in Yoshpet
Oof
Not when you have good ol' peace bell
...unless, y'know... You run straight into them on accident
Personally, I find it nice this music doesn't re-start if you get into fights in relatively quick succession; it just fades in again when th next battle starts from the point it left off.
And obligatory weapon preference comment: I'm actually hooked on using glaives as a main and 2:1 reflectors to rosaries as a sub. The glaive was really off-putting at first, but once you get the rythym of the attacks down, it's an extremely satisfying weapon.
I've always been partial to rosaries as a main weapon myself.
Oh yeah baby a sequel finally happening
THE DRUMMING MAN, THE DRUMMING PUMPS ME UP WITH ADRENALINE
I can almost hear the fighting sounds along with this song.
The song is great.
I downloaded this game for my Switch (it was on sale at the Eshop)and god damn is this the most gorgeous game I've ever played. The graphics, the music the compelling story...everything is so gorgeous.
Same!!!! #switch
i got the game last year in the same way and i absolutely agree
Same here
Main:
Rosaries for racking up combos and, thus, godhood.
Glaives for dealing with enemies that are down for long periods of time (like certain bosses).
Reflectors for a balance of power and speed.
Sub:
Rosaries for abusing ink bullet......................................................POW!
Glaives for sword-surfing fun.
Reflector, "A good defense is the best offense."
Sounds good ^^
***** What about shitting and pissing on your enemies for demon fangs?
That's obligatory obviously.
Rosaries: for those who keep screwing up the motion controls on reflectors
Sword surfing!?! Wow I never knew
Imagine being an evil monster/demon of Ancient Japan, killing anything that moves, and then all of a sudden you hear this song in the distance.
If Amaterasu gets in smash this soundtrack will definitely be one of the battle soundtracks
Reflector x Reflector. Not only do you have a decent combo in air and on ground, but defense, AND and attack made from that defense. Perfectly balanced moveset.
This has comments as old as eleven years ago and as recent as a few months ago, so I guess it's valid to still comment?

I literally have not heard, or maybe paid attention to, past forty seconds, so... this is nice.
this is the most japanese battle theme ever
Did you mean the most amazing battle theme ever
There is some african percussion present tho, there to give the song an impression of "earth" to the atmosphere of the battles, as said by the composer in an interview
@@Rogerino im too white to notice any african instruments in this song
@@gigaswardblade7261 what the fuck
@@FukurouYGR you got a problem with me being white?
Come on Sakurai put Amaterasu in smash already, we got a fricken plant ok so it isn't out of the relm of possibilities
Oh god please I begging to have amy in smash. She’s the only fighter I’ve ever asked for.
Seriously! I've wanted her for so long.
One of the little things I love about this game is the drum beat at the 10-second mark or so. That riff appears in several of the other early level fight themes on the soundtrack, and somehow it feels kind of like the pre-battle handshake, getting you into the headspace for a fight.
at the end of every battle, i always try to time the jump so that ammy lands as soon as the barrier goes poof
For me was the bark
1:50 My favorite part but I know I'm going to get a bad score for time when I hear it. 😄
after years, I started playing this game again. I have found myself entering in normal battles just for the sake of listening to Amaterasu exorcise devils with this on the bg.
Oh, also, since everyone is saying their equipments of choice... I go glaive/main, rosary/sub. I find glaives dealing quite some damage, and don't really allow any flinch to enemies, as they get downed before it triggers. Rosaries are just auxiliary weapons for some chip damage from safe distance.
Trials: Depressing
Items you didn't need all Game: allow us to introduce ourselfs
This song is the reason I enter into battles, it really gets you pumped!
Red Imp: Start us off.
Green Imp: U gots it! :D
Reflector main, glaive sub! I'm a sucker for sword surfing around the battle arena.
Don't forget that you can charge your sub glaive!
Rosary as main and reflector as sub! The shield is SUPER useful and I usually like to keep my attacks long-range so the rosary is useful :D (occasianally i switch to glaive for sub if im feeling for quicker fights :D )
LEARN TO FIGHT FOR REAL, DOUBLE GLAIVES OR NOTHING!
I only double glaive for the damage boost
Time to get 'em demon fangs. :3
I got 113 demon fangs so that's enough for the water tablet.
Time to piss on enemies
I always use the purple beads as my main weapon and the electric sword, amazing combo.
Glaives are so much fun as a secondary weapon
Wow...haven't heard this much yet. Pretty intense battle music!
One of the best battle themes!! Love it.
When you hear the second half of this song, you just know that score at the end of the fight is gonna stink
The problem with battle music is that you don't really hear it in-game, since you're focussing on battling.
Luckly, we have TH-cam.
I remember liking rosaries the best, cause i could never figure out the other weapons cause i skipped the tutorial dialogue 😓 it was only until the end of the game that i figured out i could press z to use my sub weapon.
My main usually varies, but I *always* use Rosaries as subs. I was never good with Glaives, and I can do just fine without them.

Everywhere else in the game, though, I set Reflectors as my main.
God when that shimsen kicks in, you know a slaughter is about to happen
The theme that plays when a demon scroll keeps engaging battle, so annoying lol but worth it
i love the intro bit just as much as i love the whole song
@MyMrWalkthroughs I always liked that Yellow Imp intro cutscene, namely when it leaped out and beat the drum.
thunder edge helps SO MUCH when you're in that one place doing the demon gate over and over ten times to get a stray bead, by the way, an easy way of beating a blue cyclops (blue stone face one eye with wings with a pipe) but ONLY do that when you have the most powerful weapon in the game equip that as main and equip thunder edge as sub
It’s a crime that Amaterasu did not make it in Smash!
I love swords, so I usually used glaives as both main and sub. Sword-surfing is fun. My favourite is the Blade of Kusanagi due to its jade green colour. I sometimes changed my sub to rosaries 'cause I love shooting bullets at the enemies. I rarely used the reflectors, but I absolutely love the design and enchanting movement of the Infinity Judge.
God, the fckn Trials. The only Reason i keep stacking up the Sake, the Ink Stones and the Retributions throuout the entire Game so that i don't have to grind them later.
Eeeeh, I usually just switch my new weapon to main and the one before that to sub....
As you walk among the dark path... You see nothing but a pitch black nothingness... Then... You ran... As fast as you can... But you were never moving... Now you are in my hands... You Allowed the pitch black darkness to shallow you...
i bet if you finish at the end of the song your time isn't even listed.
Got dem chills.
I use Thunder Edge as my main and Solar Flare as my sub, I love this music
I don't remember hearing that intro before in the game. Weird...
Wow (Nostalgia)
I use Rosaries as my main and Glaives as my Sub...surfing on a sword makes the harder fights easier and I need to get some God Hood so Rosaries are ideal
Since everyone's sharing their weapon main- I enjoy glaives as main and rosaries as sub, so I can shoot from afar and build up Godhood, then slash the enemy to ribbons once they get close. Although double glaives are nice once you get the dojo technique that strengthens them both!
I only hear this much of the music if I have the game paused mid-battle, like if I'm getting a snack or something. :3
Rosary because I'm bad with reflectors and glaives so all I can do is shake the Wii Remote to kill things. It works great.
i fight with rosarys as a main weapon and reflectors as a sub.
01:37 is the best part
I almost always use reflector/rosary or reflector/reflector. Reflector can take down anything, rosary is for flourish.
Glaives as main and Rosary as sub, I find it pretty fun lmao.
N O S T A L G I A
ayyyy reflectors main and glaives sub FTW BOIZ
I use thunder edge as my main and infinity judge as my sub, DEADLY weapon combination
I usually use glavies as my main and a eflector as my sub, seeing as how reflectors act as sheilds. i almost never change it, i'm too used to pressing (triangle i think for the ps2 xD) triangle and reflecting the attacks. once i changed it to the beads and almost got killed. (i was fighting Ninetails :P)
double reflectors is good
glaive and shotgun type rosary! so much fun :D
EEEYAAAAAAH!
Bring this gem of a song into monster hunter rise
Reflector main with glaive sub. Let's do this!
Same here ^~^
I always use glaives, it makes me feel like i'm from the Okina tribe and could change into a human and fight like Izanagi!
I REQUIRE AMATERASU IN SMASH BECAUSE IF THERE IS NO AMATERASU, I WON'T PLAY I AM BORED WITHOUT AMATERASU BECAUSE SHE INSPIRED ME WITH HER JAPANESE POWERS AND STUFF!!!
Glaive main with Glaive sub. I just love slicing and dicing
*YOOOOOOOOO*
良しゃー!
I swap out between rosary and glaive as main, but always use reflector as sub
Rosaries as mains and glaives as subs for me.
Little Wolf Taima Opposite for me, though usually i even toss the rosaries for another glaive
I usually fought with the Tundra Beads and had the Solar Flare as a sub if things got serious, like when you had to fight the multiple Nagis for that one stray bead... but if Im just having fun I liked to use a glaive or two. :P
This game *kind* of plays like the sonic unleashed night stages. Or should I say the sonic unleashed night stages play like Okami
@BoltFraction Second'd. The final hit with the multiple quick strikes is always satisfying. They seem nicer to wear as well, the beads are a little off putting and the only reflector I like is the first one, since that's Ammy's look!
I love the yuwuahh at 0:40
everyone's saying their weapons
so
i use all rosaries bc i like range and speed for fighting in almost all fight games
and i never use sub weapons and rosaries look the coolest as subs
Double reflectors baybee.
Rosaries as main, never used my sub so I don't know what it was.. maybe beads?
Why did I think I saw Exorcizing Fail? LOL.
Listening to this while reading Demon Slayer during fight scenes
BASED
Im in here.
1:20 EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Glaive as a main and rosary for sub. I just really like spitting bullet and have no use for a shield when I can just dodge
Eeyooo
Getting attacked by 3 nagi's in the last demon gate trial sucked. Still haven't died in my two playthroughs.
I used the devine retribution as a main and rosaries as a sub through mostly the entire game... does that make me bad? Lol
@fallenfire868 I use two reflectors :D
i like to use a rosary as a main and a glaive as a sub. (i can't get uset to a glaive as a main) i mostly use seven strike as a sub.
THEWALLS allhailkabegamiaru Opposite for me
@blarge911 YOU TWO ARE THE SAME PERSON
