Jago (and Orchid) dad was american, Jago mom is stated to be asian but it was never revealed were she was born (could be chinese, korean, philippine, japanese or from any other asian country). Jago mom was killed by Gargos (or one of his omens) and he was raised in the tibet by the monks of the tiger (who worshipped Gargos without knowing it). So in a nutshell, he is asian american but raised in the Tibet.
3:56 - 4:35 Kinda wished that atmospheric bit lasted longer. I love when metal themes cut to calm like this and then return; it cleanses the soul then polishes it.
@@EclipseHedgehog I had a cool idea plot wise were Omen beats Jago but then Gargos betrays him immediately after since he has no use for him. At that moment in the song is where Jago offers to rejoin one last time in a fight against Gargos. When the old song starts to fade in Gargos turns around to see Shadow Jago.
2:42 - 3:29 The first part is daunting, the last part is emotional. But, this part is where the hero momentarily turns the tide. Seriously, the instrumentals, the chants, then the lyrics come back in with those on top of that. You can easily imagine the intensity of the fight skyrocketing here.
There's another layer of emotions on the official soundtrack version. After the end of this theme, there's a few minutes of silence to it. Afterwards, it picks back up as a sombre, acoustic version of the KI theme plays, signifying Mick Gordon's work is finished. A sweet lullaby and goodbye. Love this man.
The entire song feels like an unwilling monster momentarily remembering themselves, suddenly having the brutality of what they are now, and the soul of who they truly are. Like a werewolf monk. And at 4:00 you hear both the beast and the person in complete unison. In PERFECT balance of both.
It almost makes me wish that instead of Omen taking over or Jago fully repelling him. A balance was achieved for that part of the song to fit even more.
Everytime I listen to Omen's theme I always imagine it to be the perfect song for the White Scars (Essentially Space Mongols) from Warhammer 40k, and I absolutely love it
_"Weak vessel. You were to herald my master's return, but you proved too... incorruptible. But your conflict gave me strength, and your resistance has given me... freedom. Woe to those who stand against me, for I am his herald and the sign of things to come. I. Am. Omen!"_
+Sateki Taulanga Depends on your definition of "Weak"..probably meant weak in that Jago was not "Strong Enough" to let Omen's power flow through him, making Jago's "Virtue" weakness.
With the way this song arranged now, makes Omen really feel like a secret KOF final boss, one you fight right after beating Aria with her already magnificent theme.
Search "Composing Instinct" by Hold Back To Block. It's a near 2 hour video where Mick and his collaborators talk in detail about the creation of some of the songs in the soundtrack.
How to perfectly sum up Omen: -Mortally despised for supposedly being "overpowered". -Menacing design. -Kickass theme. -Fun to play as. -Did I mention kickass theme?
When the music gets more calm a bit after 4 minutes, I picture Omen and Jago realizing that their power together could beat Gargos, so they decide to merge into Shadow Jago and kill Gargos, then go their separate ways.
that makes so much sense, i can see that happening now. and when the beat comes back in, that's when Shago emerges and goes in on Gargos and when it fades that's when they go their separate ways.
Slow Poison as shown in Shadow Lords and just the story in general, Omen shows signs of wanting to work for himself, and if Omen is your captain or just part of your party, he taunts Gargos after and before a fight. Omen has these feeling due to being part of Jago once, as Omen is the incarnation of all Shadow Jago's past fights, this also gave Omen all of Jago's memories, this gave Omen an obsession to have a full body, like Jago. So in short, Omen is the Herald of Death.
The whole sequence that begins at 3:57, and especially the part that starts at 4:58, is probably one of the most inspirational things in any musical track ever, let alone in just video games It's the musical equivalent of that anime trope where the hero, after having been thoroughly beaten down by a villain who seems unbeatable, remembers all the friends who believe in him, stands up with a new fire in his eyes, and the tables turn in an instant. Unbelievable amounts of sheer hype. You can tell that this is where the theme stops being Omen's and becomes Jago's again.
@Kasumi Yoshizawa "I don’t get the point of clicking on such a brutal song like this, and then point out the worst parts of it when it loses all momentum and brutality as the “best parts”." And I don't get the point of clicking on someone's comment only to type out the most idiotic thing you could think of at that time. OP was simply pointing out what they liked about the song, which I happen to like as well. Stop being an ass and making a fool of yourself.
@@carsontyler3203 Well that's just, like, your opinion, man. I like the whole song but tbh I'd love an extended version of that last part as its own song
@@astuteanansi4935 I was responding to the other comment. I love the whole song and agree with your original comment on that particular part. Extended versions of any of the KI songs would be nice.
I think this theme represents Jago while possessed by omen. Gargo's theme is played while maintaining elements of Jago's monk theme while also retaining the same lyrics, just reflecting his international conflict. By the way it changes at 3:53 I would say that's when Jago gained freedom. That peace and calmness doesn't last too long but now the song sounds more like his original theme minus the vocals. The end music almost sounds joyous. I like to think this theme represents freedom after an endless struggle.
In the story, Omen actually gains free will from having been inside Jago and chooses to go against his master, Gargos. While not allying himself with the heroes, Omen is now his own man... demon... person, with his own individuality. Having had a taste of human emotions, he no longer chooses to obey the commands of Gargos. Side note: After this newly-gained freedom, Omen has a crush on Sadira. Probably sounds a lot more childish when I type it out like that, but it isn’t fan fiction. He genuinely finds her attractive, in his own weird, transcendent, spiritual way, I suppose.
Esteban Romero Jago has a noble spirit, kinda like Ryu. So a demon becoming less evil and more sentient because of that is cool, I think. That Sadira bit came out of a piece of lore from the Shadow Lords mode. I forget the exact “archive” or “manuscript” or whatever they’re called, but yeah, it was a noteworthy advancement. Perhaps in the future, Jago and Omen could agree to become allies in order to defeat a common foe, and maybe form Shadow Jago again? Or a stronger version? It’s cool to think about.
@@EnderTitan So Omen was inside Jago's body, but Jago kinda kicked him out at one point? His Omen in the game Jago's body being possesed by Omen? Or is he a separate being?
Light Omen is a separate being. Shadow Jago is Jago’s body being possessed by Omen. Jago kicked Omen out of his body, returning to normal, but now Omen can transform into Shadow Jago (apart from Jago). It seems to be that whenever Omen possesses someone, he gains their body as a new form that he can morph into, even when he is not currently possessing them. At least that is what I understand from Shadow Lords. Hopefully that makes sense.

This song is great for waking up. It starts up with a few smooth notes to gently start to wake you up, then the guitars and drums kick in for the full awakening. And just in case you were still dozy, it goes: YEAAAAHHHHWAAAAA! DOMO! MOTHERFUCKING JAGO!
I know the lyrics are basically Tibetan gibberish, but I love how with this one it does sound like he’s saying COWER and Jago. As if either Jago should cower before Gargos (or at least his herald), or people should now cower before Shadow Jago.
+CaptainDemo779 I actually know the guy who provided the vocals (De Leon). He said that the majority of it is basically gibberish and phonetics based on Tibetan chanting.
Honestly that intro to the song sounds like the moment when the villain(Gargos) has the heroes(The Alliance) on their last legs, only for the used-to-be villain(Omen) to appear and after declaring himself freed from the Villain kicks his ass and save the heroes before leaving to do whatever he pleases be it evil or good without anyone to tell him what to do. Edit: As for the slow part it's like it's representing the new Anti-Hero reminiscing about the event that lead him to this point, memories of its past actions and of the new feeling he attained.
This is my personal opinion i like casually but hate both as competitive games since they feel gimmicky and mix-up heavy which i dislike. (this is also the reason why i only play smash competitively and street fighter semi competitively)
Woah, this version kicks ass of all kinds. Why the hell is the part from the beginning and 4:35 not in the game!? It would be so hype whenever you (or the opponent for that matter) gets a second wind via C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!, COUNTER BREAKER! or even SHADOW COUNTER! and is rewarded with this portion of the song dynamically kicking in.
The theme encapsulates really well the inner fight between Jago and Gargos influence, the parts were the chanting and the traditional instruments hit is were Jago is gaining the upper hand
I may not like death metal... but the friggin atmosphere of awesomeness coming from the synergy of sounds slamming into my auditory cortex is simply too much. *smacks that save button*

The last part around 4:00 is like the Darkness & Light inside Jago finally accepting eachother and choosing to save the world.

Light Omen is a separate being. Shadow Jago is Jago’s body being possessed by Omen. Jago kicked Omen out of his body, returning to normal, but now Omen can transform into Shadow Jago (apart from Jago). It seems to be that whenever Omen possesses someone, he gains their body as a new form that he can morph into, even when he is not currently possessing them. At least that is what I understand from Shadow Lords. Hopefully that makes sense.

Edit: As for the slow part it's like it's representing the new Anti-Hero reminiscing about the event that lead him to this point, memories of its past actions and of the new feeling he attained.
Not gonna lie, that actually sounds pretty badass...
omen's season 3 story can just be summed up as #notallomens
I'm not even a metal fan yet I fucking love this theme
That's how good the KI ost is.
1:58 OH MY GOOD YESS
THE DARK LORD IS COMING
AND SO I'M I
ew
BRB WINDMILLING TO THIS SHIT \m/
Chris The Unlimited God NO I AM
THERE IS NO LIGHT OR DARK, ONLY MANDALORE!
Only reach
Damn this theme is freaking beautiful!!
Mick Gordon always nailed it!
LUGGA LUGGA
WUGGA TUGGA
You have good taste in music
I can't believe how awesome this track is.
This song makes me want to scream to the gods for strength like an ancient warrior and take on an entire army
The awesome music, along with this picture zooming out throughout the video is just so badass, I get chills when I hear this!!!!
4:35 is glorious!
2:00 Gargos theme from KI 2 makes this so beautiful
Something is different about this one tho, if you listen to the trailer version it sounds alot better
3:55 Silence, Defeat, lost and Saddness. 😰😔😩
4:35 Rising Strength, Raging Justice and Un'KILLER'able Hope. 😤😎😈
This man really wants you to know he's the herald of Gargos.
1:58 Gargos opens a portal and samples his theme, Roars of approval are bellowed from Omen
This is what fentanyl sounds like.
1:52 Sounds like "Shago!! Shadow Jago, Shadow Jago, Shadow Jago!"
I was sick with a sore throat, cough & hurting chest. After I listened to this I was as healthy as an Ox
04:30
4:13 Panties, where are you going? PANTIES, COME BACK!!!!
+PouresMaggie *catches ze panties and hands them to you before anyone notices*
TheEmeraldPirate777 They slipped through my jeans, I swear! *bows* Thank you, kind sir. If you mention this to anyone, there will be blood....
PouresMaggie Yanderes, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy....
Who knows....she should be a Yangire.......
Please stahp... V_V
Honestly I think Omen's one of the best new additions to Killer Instinct that the folks over at Iron Galaxy made.
If I didnt know this was from a fighting game I would seriously think this is some vampire stuff
Don’t know how I got here but I love it !
Welcome now bow before the herald of gargos
@@anubisshadowreaper8808
Bow before the Barrel of Wargos
When he said "Waka waka" i felt that.
Is it weird that I got Ninjago vibes from this? Like, season one Weekend Whip type vibes
Nope same ninja theme
Mortal Kombat X may be my fav game, but its music is lackluster compared to this masterpiece.
@The King Of Vaseline lol, no. KI is a bad fighting game.
RIDDICK0911 excuse me ?
This is my personal opinion i like casually but hate both as competitive games since they feel gimmicky and mix-up heavy which i dislike. (this is also the reason why i only play smash competitively and street fighter semi competitively)
RIDDICK0911 stfu there both good in there own right
KI did not get love fron the devolopers for me the old ones where better but some of the music is good
This song made me love Omen
+Rasamatazz Me too! :D I don't play as him though.
As well as Shadow Jago.
Who else literally had their soul ripped out, buffed, and shoved back in by this song? Just me? Ok
i literally died and then i literally called keanu reeves and he literally died and my soul literally exploded just me ok
@@animeprofilepicture8855 not just you XD
Mick built-ups bring tears to my eyes!
Woah, this version kicks ass of all kinds. Why the hell is the part from the beginning and 4:35 not in the game!? It would be so hype whenever you (or the opponent for that matter) gets a second wind via C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!, COUNTER BREAKER! or even SHADOW COUNTER! and is rewarded with this portion of the song dynamically kicking in.
Man this is just a masterpiece.
Eat a entire cake challenge
No problem!
*plays song while eating*
+gonzalo torchia At 1:58 in a loop
Sing this song while eating. It will make you eat faster.
*stuffed with cake*
Me: Ah um tha herldh uf Grghos!
I want to like but I cannot possibly destroy perfection....(thu March 5 2020.......I still see the 69 likes)
Maximilian Dood this game still rocks
The theme encapsulates really well the inner fight between Jago and Gargos influence, the parts were the chanting and the traditional instruments hit is were Jago is gaining the upper hand
0:21 JO JO
CHUGGA LUGGA JAGO
WUGGA CHUGGA COWER
WELCOME TO THE STAGE SHOW
I may not like death metal... but the friggin atmosphere of awesomeness coming from the synergy of sounds slamming into my auditory cortex is simply too much.
*smacks that save button*
Lol same
This isn’t death metal by a damn sight lmao
If I could have music like this in ALL my games that would be amazing 🤘
