A looped version of Caius's Theme. All rights go to Square Enix. This is my first video and I hope you like it. Download Link: www.4shared.com/mp3/kZexAue3/C...
Comparison to Sephiroth, Sephiroth's theme sounds as if someone or something is coming to haunt you down and take you down, But Caiu's theme, has that "Fighting me is Futile, You, This world, Everyone, WILL PERISH! a Theme of Desperation where Misery,sorrow & pain will be delivered..Perfect for Caius!
I think Caius and Sephiroth would work together for a goal rather than fight. Caius would only attack sephiroth if he threatened Yuel. And Sephioth wouldn't attack Caius or Yuel unless they got in his way. Cannon or not, in dissidia Sepheroth would turn on his own allies if they got in his way. So Caius would be no different. Caius wants to kill etro and sepheroth wants to end all life. Life does end if etro is killed so they would have a common interest.
Birth ends if Etro is killed, since her lifeblood is the font from which human souls are born. Life itself doesn't end. In any case, it was Etro and, in turn, Lightning that brought humanity into the conflict; before Lightning sent Noel and Mog to the past, Valhalla essentially only existed at the end of time, where Caius traveled simply by existing eternally. The timeline collapsed on itself and the paradoxes were born when Noel visited Serah in New Bodhum.
Idk about that, Sephiroth has issues with the rest of humanity, and see's himself and Jenova the only 2 worth of living in the world. Caius only cares about Yuel, and I don't think he'd trust him to not harm her. Sephiroth plans to absorb all souls and become a god, while Caius want's to save Yuel's soul, so I don't really think it would work out between them.
Caius can destroy Sephiroth without batting an eyelash. Just throwing that out there. They wouldn't get along that well. Sephiroth would be taken down.
Caius is a unique villain in the Final Fantasy series. He does not want to destroy the world for reasons of normal villains, he wants to put a stop to the suffering he and Yuel suffer. This theme is a mirror to such feelings and the way that Caius is trying to use to break this vicious circle.
Seriously guys, Caius is stronger then Sephiroth. It doesn't make Sephiroth a worse villain or Caius a better one, its simply the case then the XIII protagonists fight stronger foes then Cloud or Zack. To quote Monokuma "Like a punk anime protagonist trying to fight a super power anime protagonist. Good as he is, he has no chance".
I think a lot of opinions would change in Sephiroths standing in the theoretical "Which FF-series villain is better than which?" contest if Super Nova actually meant game over instead of a battle mechanic.

I haven't played dissidia at all but I have played 13-2. While my opinion stands on that game as not being so thrilling, Caius was in fact a magnificent character design. His theme even better. Someone got Yahtzee in Squeenix JP HQ.
dont know if anyone gives a shit but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last few months xD
I love the calming tranquility phases at around 3.22 , the uplifting sweep at 3.40 ,followed by the Godly reprieve which then melds into the overarching complete destruction melodies.
for some reason, Caius reminds me of Lu Bu. the hair, the face, the strenght, the attitude and the voice. this music sounds so majestic, so divine, very good fitting such personality of his. nice music for nice persona
Cloudburst was my only RAV during the later half of the game and for the highest level monster battles (for the full bestiary, Raspatil being the hardest). Its Feral Link buffs your party and heals them so I found it extremely useful if i couldn't switch to a MED in time. Also had Cactuar as my COM and and SEN monster for insta tortoise lol. Just talking about it now is making me want to go play it XD
When I herd this playing in the credits of FF 13-2 after seeing that ending the first time, it felt more like a permanent game over then beating the game. Even after beating Requiem of the Goddess hearing it in the credits again still felt like a game over. Especially if you saw the 100% comoleation cutscean after the credits.
I was pretty eager in this fight. It took me awhile to figure out what paradigms to use 'cause it was my first fight against Caius with the Paradox scope active. and it was by far the hardest imo
*listening to this song on my iPhone*.... *at 1:34 slowly lifts arms toward the sky* *mom walks in; totally plays it off as a stretch and leaves the room like a boss*
Dear Caius. I hope Square makes the right choice and makes you the main villain of Lighting Returns. If not the main villain then one of the main antagonists at least. I hope the teaser on Spember first will give us more details about the new game's story. Also, your coments are hilarious.
The only thing Caius's theme doesn't have that OWA does have is the irreplaceable high point that we all know and love in it. As far as an overall tone and theme, this works better. Both have their merits.
@StockexRaynieftw Exactly the same here. I didn't realize it until I thought, after like 10 minutes, »Umm, wait, why's his health still at 100%?!«. And when I realized... Well, it was too late... 2nd try I saw he had Reraise and I thought »What am I doing here?«, but when the fight still ended I was oooh, so relieved!
"Each hair is unique, doomed to die, but not anymore! With new Body and Soul™ you too can enjoy an ETERNITY of soft luscious hair like mine! Embrace the softness"
@TheNerobahamutzero well i used one of the cutscene vids and edited it to create a black night atmosphere. anyway, you want me to upload a looped and extended version of "colliding worlds" and "knight of the goddess"? and plus let others know if they're looking for this.
it's called invisible depths and i have it already. the second battle with chaos bahamut is called heart of chaos which ive done already. this is reupload with the question. srry i said followers of chaos. i made a mistake there :)
has anyone noticed that the voice actor of caius is also the voice actor for Gaara in naruto? i mean i have tried watchin g anime in english and I really dont feel the emotion, but the way square enix portraited this game, you really get involve with all of the characters, one of my favorite trilogy so far
+Nero Phantomhive The ones that get recycled a lot are extremely good and reused for a reason. Usually better then their Japanese contemporaries, where they got a way higher amount of used voice actors but they all do the exact same voices, so you get the issue of voice reuse but lack the advantage of experienced voice actors. Not that they don't reuse voice actors constantly as well. Fucking Rie Kujimiya.
I read that once, and was orrified. Then I went down and read all of Caius' comments, and by the time I was done and came back up here to look at the epic picture/new desktop, I had forgotten about it. My mind has suffered a brutal double rape this night. This is what I get for liking Caius...
he has the best timing for that spell and chain break he handed me my ass on 12 silver platters when battled him with just serah with the paradox scope activated
Motomu claims he worked month after month after month to perfect this song to top One Winged Angel. (it proves how epic that song was lol.) and i must say, it does top it. One Winged Angel is still epic, but more nostalgia. he DID top it, but you really cant compare the two. sephiroth's theme represents his insanity and behemoth fury and hatred. while the moment this song came on you could feel the pride and darkness of caius. this did top One Winged Angel though. wonderful job, Motomu! :D
It's sad that this song gets lost in a game many gamers won't try just because of FXIII. Faster paced (with some added assistance later ;D), easier to digest, more entertaining, and a much cooler ending to get blown away by. I did not see that shit coming...and I laughed all giddy because it was fucking awesome.
Caius, serah and Noel... Serah and lightning on Comos side (serahs mission was to go after lightning) and Noel and Caius for Chaos( Noel mission was to follow Caius since Noel wanted to become a guardian)
Comparison to Sephiroth, Sephiroth's theme sounds as if someone or something is coming to haunt you down and take you down, But Caiu's theme, has that "Fighting me is Futile, You, This world, Everyone, WILL PERISH! a Theme of Desperation where Misery,sorrow & pain will be delivered..Perfect for Caius!
Yes i was very immersed in the music itself someyimes i couldnt even concentrate
"I see." the blind man said to his deaf wife.
It's strange how this song is so calm, but at the same time has such intensity to it.
I think Caius and Sephiroth would work together for a goal rather than fight.
Caius would only attack sephiroth if he threatened Yuel. And Sephioth wouldn't attack Caius or Yuel unless they got in his way. Cannon or not, in dissidia Sepheroth would turn on his own allies if they got in his way. So Caius would be no different.
Caius wants to kill etro and sepheroth wants to end all life. Life does end if etro is killed so they would have a common interest.

Caius can destroy Sephiroth without batting an eyelash. Just throwing that out there. They wouldn't get along that well. Sephiroth would be taken down.
Thunder Hawke the only thing ive seen caius do is stop time...thats about it and ultimecia can do that better..
reviving the old thread : How do you guys think an allegiance would pan out between Kuja and Kefka
Siempre demostrando la calidad de música en cualquier video juego de Final Fantasy, excelente.
The song should've been called Caius' Ballad.
It is his theme after all.
Or Ballad of Caius... Btw, shouldn't it be Caius' instead of Caius's?
Maidros Fëanoron That's what I wrote tho
Ah! There you go, even I didn't notice. xD bygones.
Only... It's not a ballad.
Caius is a unique villain in the Final Fantasy series.
He does not want to destroy the world for reasons of normal villains, he wants to put a stop to the suffering he and Yuel suffer.
This theme is a mirror to such feelings and the way that Caius is trying to use to break this vicious circle.
I like that he is an antivillain for that matter.
Seriously guys, Caius is stronger then Sephiroth. It doesn't make Sephiroth a worse villain or Caius a better one, its simply the case then the XIII protagonists fight stronger foes then Cloud or Zack. To quote Monokuma "Like a punk anime protagonist trying to fight a super power anime protagonist. Good as he is, he has no chance".
Not to mention Caius is immortal. Even killing his heart of chaos didn't kill him.
+Vanalk - Bloons TD Battles & Mobile Gaming Yeuls are his second heart :)
I think a lot of opinions would change in Sephiroths standing in the theoretical "Which FF-series villain is better than which?" contest if Super Nova actually meant game over instead of a battle mechanic.

CAN WE PLEASE HAVE CAIUS PLAYABLE IN ANOTHER DISSIDIA GAME, PLEASE I BEG!!!!!!!!!
I haven't played dissidia at all but I have played 13-2. While my opinion stands on that game as not being so thrilling, Caius was in fact a magnificent character design. His theme even better. Someone got Yahtzee in Squeenix JP HQ.
Yes, Caius needs to be in Dissidia NT.
Too bad he’s only going to be in the mobile until the line gets a new title.
It would have been better if Caius would have appeared in all three games
@Marcus Blanchard yah... but 0 Final Fantasy caracteres :"c
dont know if anyone gives a shit but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all of the latest series on instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last few months xD
@Israel Bryce Yup, I have been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :)
Yesssss
Epic theme and you really can't notice the loop. Very well made.
Great music to be looped! Thanks and gratz!
Caius would be entertained when he meets Ultimecia...
such a beautiful lyrics..thank you so much! ^^
Crying manly tears right now...
1:35 touches my soul every time
Your... Body and Soul?
Indeed it does, best part of a perfect theme.
Thanks for keeping the quality there's ppl who extend songs but do it in shitty quality. Thanks bro.
Thank you very much for this looped&extended version of Caius theme , I really like this theme it's better than "one winged angel" from FFVII
I love the calming tranquility phases at around 3.22 , the uplifting sweep at 3.40 ,followed by the Godly reprieve which then melds into the overarching complete destruction melodies.
And I forgot to tell you that I also love the background image you used for your video ^^
Feel the pain and devotion behind this mans drive. Caius was so bad ass. I hope of there comes another FF13 sequel he's in it.
An amazing theme for an amazing villain!
That is a paradoxical existence. The Caius that died in Valhalla was the real Caius. The one we see in the Secret Ending is a paradox.
Caius's theme gives me eargasms, this is amazing. *_*
Great screenshot BTW.
That is just who i am.
I have marked you in such a way....
That you can even hear my voice, from outside the game...
Caius needs to be a optional super boss in a kingdom hearts game. He would be extremely difficult imo
The real super boss is keeping up with the God forsaken "story"
@@everilliem3292DARKNESS WITHIN DARKNESS
Oh yes, that would be sick. Screw Sephiroth, Caius should be the FF superboss.
Your theme is awesome.
It would be good to see Caius again. He is a great character.
Thanks that is really helpful
holy! this pic is just epic!
Thank you caius for giving yourself to the chaos and keeping the monsters concealed with you in hell. You're a good dude!
dshizzznit702 nevermind that he screwed the rest of humanity for yeul...
that would be an epic duel.
Indeed it is, thank you. I hope you quite enjoy it.
Cause he's that awesome. And yes, I did the same thing when I read his comments too.
Caius always seems to use those purple wave-like attacks during the peaks of this song's epic-ness.
for some reason, Caius reminds me of Lu Bu.
the hair, the face, the strenght, the attitude and the voice.
this music sounds so majestic, so divine, very good fitting such personality of his. nice music for nice persona
Indeed
1:43 my fav part. its just.... amazing!!!
goosebumps >,
The second battle with Chaos Bahamut in the DLC is backed by "Heart of Chaos" the theme that plays when you fight Caius on Valhalla's shores.
The Chaos has already spread, across the whole world wide...
It is why i said, the true age of chaos, is now truly beginning...*grin*
Definately!
A great idea for a sequel.
¡¡¡EPIC!!!
This song right here, and Somnus from FF versus 13, are my 2 songs that will come on when im in a epic sparring match
Caius is so freaking cool =P
Cloudburst was my only RAV during the later half of the game and for the highest level monster battles (for the full bestiary, Raspatil being the hardest). Its Feral Link buffs your party and heals them so I found it extremely useful if i couldn't switch to a MED in time. Also had Cactuar as my COM and and SEN monster for insta tortoise lol. Just talking about it now is making me want to go play it XD
Indeed.
Now this is what I'm talking about Square.
Cloudburst with its Friendly Fire feral link saved my ass multiple time in this game.
2:35 so epic!! cant stop listening :D
Also my favorite part!
When I herd this playing in the credits of FF 13-2 after seeing that ending the first time, it felt more like a permanent game over then beating the game. Even after beating Requiem of the Goddess hearing it in the credits again still felt like a game over. Especially if you saw the 100% comoleation cutscean after the credits.

epic
Caius is one of my favourite villains in FF history
*listening to this song on my iPhone*.... *at 1:34 slowly lifts arms toward the sky*
*mom walks in; totally plays it off as a stretch and leaves the room like a boss*
to much nostalgia
Caius has to be my favorite FF villain. I love his theme its so epic. ya hear that Caius your my favorite!! :)
We out here dreadmaxxing
Dear Caius. I hope Square makes the right choice and makes you the main villain of Lighting Returns. If not the main villain then one of the main antagonists at least. I hope the teaser on Spember first will give us more details about the new game's story. Also, your coments are hilarious.
caius is my FAVORITTEE DAMMMITT wuuu
Ha anyone had a hard time defeating caius both in oerba and sarah by herself? Mm good times made this song fit perfectly with the tension.
NizuiNizul
l
lolll
lll
l
Still a great one.
CAIUS!!!!!
Your not the only one. I hope he appears as an optional boss.
The only thing Caius's theme doesn't have that OWA does have is the irreplaceable high point that we all know and love in it. As far as an overall tone and theme, this works better. Both have their merits.
i would sooo buy it. If that happens :)
The teaser shall uncover some about the game, all i can say is wait, and watch on what is yet to come.
You should perhaps be pleased...
Ah thank you.
I thought It was Head & Shoulders with a hint of mint!
Caius vs. Sepiroth!! The 2 baddest villains in gaming history squaring off to determine who's the baddest villain of all time. Woot woot, FTW!!
that is if there's gonna be another one.
@StockexRaynieftw Exactly the same here. I didn't realize it until I thought, after like 10 minutes, »Umm, wait, why's his health still at 100%?!«. And when I realized... Well, it was too late... 2nd try I saw he had Reraise and I thought »What am I doing here?«, but when the fight still ended I was oooh, so relieved!
I want this at my funeral
"Each hair is unique, doomed to die, but not anymore! With new Body and Soul™ you too can enjoy an ETERNITY of soft luscious hair like mine! Embrace the softness"
Hair like a goddess
...I see....very well then...it is always...''fantastic'' to have Chaos believers...
I really hope a new Dissidia will be created on Vita... This one will be simply AMAZING!
@TheNerobahamutzero well i used one of the cutscene vids and edited it to create a black night atmosphere. anyway, you want me to upload a looped and extended version of "colliding worlds" and "knight of the goddess"? and plus let others know if they're looking for this.
it's called invisible depths and i have it already. the second battle with chaos bahamut is called heart of chaos which ive done already. this is reupload with the question. srry i said followers of chaos. i made a mistake there :)
has anyone noticed that the voice actor of caius is also the voice actor for Gaara in naruto? i mean i have tried watchin g anime in english and I really dont feel the emotion, but the way square enix portraited this game, you really get involve with all of the characters, one of my favorite trilogy so far
Games and anime recycle VAs quite a bit. Not saying they aren't good, but you can always spot em if you listen carefully.
One example being Garland from Dissidia. You can clearly tell he's Vegeta/Piccolo aka Christopher Sabat.
yeah, sadly US should get better voice actors for their anime, some sound really annoying
Rin Tezuka holy shit thats chris sabat?!!!!
+Nero Phantomhive The ones that get recycled a lot are extremely good and reused for a reason. Usually better then their Japanese contemporaries, where they got a way higher amount of used voice actors but they all do the exact same voices, so you get the issue of voice reuse but lack the advantage of experienced voice actors.

I read that once, and was orrified. Then I went down and read all of Caius' comments, and by the time I was done and came back up here to look at the epic picture/new desktop, I had forgotten about it. My mind has suffered a brutal double rape this night. This is what I get for liking Caius...
Because he's worth it
he has the best timing for that spell and chain break he handed me my ass on 12 silver platters when battled him with just serah with the paradox scope activated
...Knees and toes...
Hahahaha...*grin*...you've simply experienced a small taste of chaos...
Its not really hard to believe, they sound exactly the same o.o
You can say it... Kain is my favorite Final Fantasy Character and Caius is a great bad guy... I want him to the next Dissidia game!
Most badass villain in FF history >_
Motomu claims he worked month after month after month to perfect this song to top One Winged Angel. (it proves how epic that song was lol.) and i must say, it does top it.
One Winged Angel is still epic, but more nostalgia. he DID top it, but you really cant compare the two. sephiroth's theme represents his insanity and behemoth fury and hatred. while the moment this song came on you could feel the pride and darkness of caius. this did top One Winged Angel though. wonderful job, Motomu! :D
You cannot kill me not now
I TOTALLY SAID THE SAME THING WHEN I SAW HIM!!!
Always have been, and always will, after all it is whom always tak-....I shall say no more...silence is all shall be heard now...
All rise for the Final Fantasy Fan-boy anthem.
@BackpackBanjo true plus this is my own extended video so at least give me the benefit of the doubt
Imagine the possibilities with that!
Caius v Kain, either one could say, "Do I hear an echo?"
It's sad that this song gets lost in a game many gamers won't try just because of FXIII. Faster paced (with some added assistance later ;D), easier to digest, more entertaining, and a much cooler ending to get blown away by. I did not see that shit coming...and I laughed all giddy because it was fucking awesome.
So basically, Garland, but actually successful in creating a paradox.
Ooooooh creepy/cool background picture....
I agree only have one change instead of calling him Caius we should call him Epicness XD
ahahahaha, great comment man, lol, caius you're my hero....
Caius, serah and Noel... Serah and lightning on Comos side (serahs mission was to go after lightning) and Noel and Caius for Chaos( Noel mission was to follow Caius since Noel wanted to become a guardian)
