It's rather interesting symbolism that the Pope himself is man, whereas Andoain is God. Could it refer to how Andoain is the one showing the "better" path to overall Terran salvation over simply Laterano salvation that the Pope represents, and that's why he's the God, over, y'know, the actual Pope? But maybe I'm reading too far into this.
Both Andoain and the Pope are so cool. This scene is sick asf, my favorite cutscene of the event. Andoaine is one of the very few Arknights villains that I genuinely like, he's not even an antagonist story-wise, only in gameplay. Make Andoain playable please!
It's refreshing to see a pope portrayed as one of the good guys in media. My man is adorable (loves sweets), badass (as seen in this picture), and is good-natured while also not naïve. I know the chances are non-existent, but I really hope he becomes playable someday.
I get what you mean, I don’t think he is that good but still it feels refreshing instead of a simple bad guy in Priest clothes. But his color scheme make me think of Santa Claus and I cannot stop seeing him as anything else now.
@@roxashunter8879 I mean, he wants to help other Terrans as well. But taking in each and every one of the downtrodden would just ruin everything. Laterano included. The reason for this can already be seen with Fia in this event. The two victims of Andoain's transgressions have already forgiven him thanks to their shared empathy. Laterano is able to stay as a paradise because exactly of this reason. And as we can see, Fia, a person that doesn't share this empathy, is still out for Andoain's blood, leading to more conflict even when her two friends have already moved on. Helping people Andoain's way will only lead to ruin as Terra is an unforgiving world. There's almost no way to reach Laterano's level of stability without their race-wide empathy. Which is why he created the forum that we saw in this event instead. He definitely looks like Pope Santa Claus tho.
@@ahmadyulinu It is avalie point and I approve of the name Pope St-Claus. Maybe Terra is the world where our dear Santa saw it wasn't enough to bring only toys.
Oh mann , i'm waiting for this event for really long time and now its finally here! Can't wait to jamming to the music and read the story on this event
My expectation: Andorn, calculating mastermind, a threat to all Laterano, who is not hesitating to injure a close one and shows zero remorse about it. Andoain in event: "Hey, pope, can you please explain what in the name of all holy is even going on, because I do not understand it at all, I just do random stuff and this Shimmering Vigil girl wants to kill me for it"
Well, from the beginning, all he wants is just to find the answer; Especially after what happened to his homeland, and how Laterano reject his request to help his homeland. Yeah I understand that some people think Andoain will do 'something great' to Laterano, but that's not his intention at all. Even Patia and Oren sometimes doesn't understand what he is thinking.
He want to ask: why Laterano wont open their door to help other race, and the Pope answer: because that's exactly how Laterano can mantain their own paradise for now. Laterano is truly paradise, but also just a oasis between everlasting Inferno Terra. You cant expect a drop of water to extinguish a sea of fire. But then in the end, there are somethings change: Cecelia ring the bell and Pope's speech about connecting Terra together. We may see a new Laterano very soon
There's this one thing thats not shown to us players yet: what exactly did the pope show him? From the dialogue I guess its something like a supercomputer? And that sanktas are modified humans connected to this hive mind. It made Andoaine confused for some time
this event is less "everyone is scheming something behind the curtains" like the past few ones we've had (especially Break the Ice) and more "everyone is fighting for what they truly believe is right". it's a nice change of pace.
The Martyr of questions against St Sankta clause of Kentucky fried candy both are so badass and the weapon they or maybe laterano chose considering their ranks are absolutely mind blowing.
thanks for putting this together! i've been listening to it for study bgm ever since the event was released on EN lol i stream it on spotify now but this version is way more seamless so i still come back to it
For all that Andoainis a low-HP boss, he cannot be blocked like Faust, has evasion, and he has ammo for bouncing shots that hurt, plus his phase 2 defensive aura and scanshot can hurt if you're not prepared.
ANOTHER Possibilty: Andoain Pathfinder Forces Literally Obliterate Fudo's Security, Waiting for the Moment Where Rukia Kuchiki Shield Tsubasa from Fudo's Shot and Andoain Comes for a Gunfight Against Fudo, While Fudo Keep Using His Sword, Andoain Disarms Fudo's Sword by Shooting it and Stating the "Bring A Knife in a Gunfight" Joke, Fudo Readies his Mauser and this is how GUNFIGHT BETWEEN ANDOAIN AND FUDO BEGINS!
"Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum" This is pretty much John wick, and yes I do know anime has tons of church figures boasting impressive arsenals, but in the spirit
For my doctor, think the background would be that he worked as a double agent for the Pope/Leader of Lateranos, to embedded as an agent with the Queen of Fiends, in exchange for his family's safety as his parents went against the kingdom and was thus hunted down in return, and as for his work would be de-stabilizing, reducing his place to a shell of itself to prevent Kazdel's expansionist ideals and throw the world into a war it cannot recover from, it failed and he was presumed K.I.A
If there ever was a song that perfectly encapsulate the saying, "You can't expect God to do all the work", this would be it.
Martyr Joshua Graham:
I just lack the brainpower to come up with something clever atm
You know it's Arknights when you mix Cyberpunk music with Choir
That scene artwork of the pope pulling out a pistol against andoain was probably one of my favorites in the entire game
サンクタの神聖なイメージと、爆発日常茶飯事ラテラーノ民のノリだけで生きてるイメージがどっちも入ってる気がしてとても好きです…
THE ARTWORK
Revolver Pope vs Flintlock Martyr
The artwork in this event was so good
You may have a flintlock pistol, but I have a double action revolver!
Doktah : "Guys, the Thermal Bible. Go get it."
I just realized the image is a reference to The Creation of Adam.
OMG IT ACTUALLY IS
I've never noticed this before, how-
Except it's "give me that last slice of pie"

@@xyne6542 ... oh wow :0
that's a really interesting observation
@@xyne6542 hope its not a dark foreshadow in some ways for the future 😅😅

Man playable andoain would be sick
Still hoping for playable Martyr
If I remember correctly, Andoain and Rhodes Island have (mostly) the same goal so chances are high
アンドアイン、今までのイベントボスで1番気持ちに共感出来たし好意を抱いたけど、戦闘でやる能力度し難い！回避率50%永続はやりすぎだろ！！
One of the best battle music in AK omg
A theme most appropriate for visiting the land of the Apple Pie.
F’s to the Dokutahs who have been assimilated into the apple pies
@@Eadragonixius …… assimilated into apple pi- *looks at half eaten apple pie* sh*t.
I love the way they are mimicking "The Creation of Adam" from Michelangelo
When God is Up to Date:
I gotta say, never imagined that Texas, The Vatican and Cyberpunk would mesh so well together.

Its incredible how good is the mix of Fantasy and Futurism thematics in Arknights, in the music and the visual too.

この曲、本当好き
Oh mann , i'm waiting for this event for really long time and now its finally here!
Can't wait to jamming to the music and read the story on this event
Im really excited to fight against Andorne, the tilted halo Sankta and is holding a "simple" flintlock pistol, also this still slaps hard!!!
Simple flintlock that shoot a mother fucking arts
I just lack the brainpower to come up with something clever atm
Ah yes. "Simple"
Can't wait to hear my fav osts in the game!
The ost for this event is rlly a banger
Such an awesome and haunting boss theme. I can't wait for my suffering soon in the event.
Nothing beats listening to a banger boss theme as your operators got ragdolled by explosions XD
that wallpaper is kinda badass

YESSS 30 MINUTES OF THE BADASS MUSIC
I was waiting for the 30 min version since Guiding Ahead dropped in CN. What a banger. Thank you for your hard work, RiverV!
“GUYS COME TO FLOOR 438 QUICK! JESUS AND A FURRY ARE BOXING IN THE LOBBY!”
Holy dubstep crusade
Coming soon
finally ,the 30 min version i was waiting for
can't wait to farm gels at the same time of listening to this in game
This was my first event that i can clear until the Ex-CM. This bgm probably one of the reason for it lol
The Martyr of questions against St Sankta clause of Kentucky fried candy both are so badass and the weapon they or maybe laterano chose considering their ranks are absolutely mind blowing.
I will listen to this as I cope for playable Andoain 😭🙏
人工ゲル乱獲テーマソングのイメージが強すぎて他が霞んでしまう……
跳弾と手塚ゾーンが辛かったですまた来てください待ってますアンドアインさん
While the pastor was blessing me, he suddenly got up to breakdance.
thanks for putting this together! i've been listening to it for study bgm ever since the event was released on EN lol
i stream it on spotify now but this version is way more seamless so i still come back to it
I swear, this cutscene is so epic.
Holy sheesh, Gabe Newell as the Laterano Pope in Arknights!?
Let's hope he doesn't know how to count to 3 or else Andorne gonna die XD
Our venerable RNG Lord Gaben 🙏
dude, I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought of that.
ひええ〜っ もうジェラートはこりごりだぁ〜〜っっ！
For all that Andoainis a low-HP boss, he cannot be blocked like Faust, has evasion, and he has ammo for bouncing shots that hurt, plus his phase 2 defensive aura and scanshot can hurt if you're not prepared.
dont be fooled, the Pope is muscular dude under the robe. no one can beat him in arm wrestling in Laterano......
i still cant unsee the Pope as Gaben
アンドアインまた来てくれんかな。未亡人感エグいって
That's what I always wanted but was too shy to ask for.
Already set to alarm when I wake up
That Theme slaps so damn hard
i love the artwork

even angel nowdays had to go through war :") it will be exciting to play real FPS in heaven though
if someone let an Actually modern Father or nun listening to review this music that will be awesome.
Electric orchestra: a new crossover of music genre
Remind me of creation of adam art.
"Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum"
This is pretty much John wick, and yes I do know anime has tons of church figures boasting impressive arsenals, but in the spirit
Make Andoain playable please! He's super cool!
this really reminds me of some of the music in Furi.
even the tittle is so fit
Sick!
This gives me Crypt of the Necrodancer vibes somehow
FK YEAH I WAS WAITING FOR THIS 30MIN VER FOREVER
only 250k views? man, that's not right considering this is literally one of the best tracks i've heard
5 minute version has 1 million views
Almost 2 million views now
Gaben Pope use revolver
This sounds like Le Catle Vania
ngl, this ost would fit for a geometry dash level
Along with every Kazimierz OST (and maybe Boiling Blood too as an extra)
アンドアイン戦はフレンドを借りて何とかクリアをした。アンドアインの攻撃は嫌だけど曲は好き。
DMC4のbgmですって言っても通じそう
SLAPS
damm this suit payday2 vibes really much.
Sounds similar to Overwerks music haha
John Wick x Arknights when
Make the 30min regular battle music also pls
Payday ahh song
Genesis！
Pope in other media :
Pope in Arknight :
Andoain did nothing wrong
Is that AoT reference LOL!
