- Опубликовано: 23 дек 2024
- A remix of Scissors' theme from Paper Mario: The Origami King! Enjoy!
(Although, should I say it's a remix of Scissors' theme... Or a remix of Megalovania with the melody from Scissors' theme instead of the normal Megalovania melody?? w)
SECRET MELODIES IN THE ORDER THAT THEY PLAY:
1. "MEGALOVANIA" from Undertale (also the webcomic Homestuck. This secret melody plays throughout, and is the bassline and chord progression for most of the remix.)
2. "Cut Man Stage" from Mega Man (the original game)
3. "The Ultimate Show" (Final Boss Theme) from Super Paper Mario
4. The main theme from Paper Mario: Color Splash
5. "The Fanged Fastener" from Paper Mario: The Origami King
6. "The Royal Theme" (Original Leitmotif)
7. "Calamari Inkantation" from the Splatoon series
THOUGHT PROCESS:
Originally, the remix was actually going to have the bassline and chords from Scissors' theme... But then, because I have a habit of finding every song that can be played to the bassline of Megalovania easily, I found out that it fits well with the bassline of Megalovania. Thus, I took the lazy route and went with what I already know how to play. (I might do a different remix of Scissors' theme with the correct bassline and chords in future, so don't have a bad time just yet. Although, I am fickle, and I might just have this single remix, so don't bet all your money on me making another remix www.)
Scissors is way more childlike in the Japanese version, and since that is the version of Oriking I am most familiar with, I threw in a music box soundfont. Sans (who is associated with Megalovania because it plays during his battle in the Genocide Route) is shown playing the trombone at one point during Undertale, and so there's a trombone in the background.
Towards the end of the song, before the key change, I thought that it would be interesting if I had a different bass and chord progression for a little while. I was having a hard time thinking of one when I remember Calamari Inkantation, which worked almost immediately. I also threw in Stapler's theme, because in my gijinka (humanized) world, Scissors and Stapler are close friends (not a ship, although I DO ship Scissors with another member of the Legion of Stationery... w)
LOCALIZATION GOSSIP:
(Note that I saw fanart on Pixiv before I saw the actual game, so my reaction to the English localization is a bit strange as a result.)
I'll be bold and say that Scissors is the Legion of Stationery member who is the most different between the English and Japanese versions of the game. In English, they are somewhat serious and knight-like throughout their dialogue (though they show more of a battle-loving side when their sheath is broken, and they act a tad childish when you dodge Final Cut for the first time.) Seeing as how Scissors is said to be "Olly's top lieutenant," I can understand why they are so knightly in the English version.
However, in the Japanese version, their characterization is almost completely different - they act childlike instead of knight-like. Scissors' first-person pronoun is ぼく ("boku"; a first-person pronoun with a soft "masculine" vibe, can be used by adults and young children alike) and while they don't talk like a toddler per se, they definitely talk in a very playful, youthful way (I would guess about 6 ~ 8 years old.) They refer to the Paper Mistake Buzzy Beetle as their "toy" and refer to fighting as "playing." They also seem to love battle in the Japanese version as well; they shout "Let's play!" both before their battle and before they put their cover on, and when they charge up Final Cut, they let out a scream of excitement. I personally like the Japanese version of Scissors better, because they're adorably terrifying, but that's just me.
One more thing: I think Scissors is supposed to be "female" in the Chinese localizations, though I am completely unsure about this since I can't read Simplified Chinese OR Traditional Chinese. So don't quote me on that one.

Underrated :(
Underrated banger. This really shows how creepy Scissors was, ESPECIALLY the cutout soldiers. I love this remix and I hope you do a Vellumental one!
Thank you for your kind words, and sorry for the late reply! When I saw your comment, I was inspired to do a Vellumental remix as my first request of sorts. It's finished now, I'm just working on the keyart and then it'll be uploaded!
@@Kittygirl-nf9si (me trying to enjoy this)
My tablet: ... *LAG*
I've never enjoyed a cover so much this is amazing!!
Who knew Megalovania and Scissors’ boss theme would go so well together?
Also, I still didn’t hear the Ultimate Show, and I’ve listened to this loads of times. Even with headphones. XD
Maybe you've found it by now but it's *very* quiet in the background at 2:36.
To 99% the best "Dual bladed duelist" remix in existence and you can't change my mind
Check out a channel called tnhgameremixes not tryna hate on this one ofc but that's another good one
@@DSXL75 Aw yeah that one's a banger. This one is pretty good by itself too but it's missing a lot of the dramatic emphasis that the original had
“Laughs in Megalovania” 😂
Blade child…is your body ok? I don’t think having a pair of scissors as an arm is normal- Love the remix tho!
Species:
50% Scissors
50% Human

*Looks at the right blade* THAT’S NOT HOW REFLECTIONS WORK-
@@PlagelKnigchenko *N O -*
@@PlagelKnigchenko Oh, ok. 😅
Take Dis boi!!!
*rips their back off*
What happened to his right arm?
Trust, theres a mirror behind the camera thats reflecting the reflection
I know this is late, but I’m so glad you have a SoundCloud now! I found it and I love all of your songs!
When you think about sissors in a world full of paper beings would make sissors the equivalent of a eldritch horror to them. So yeah adding in megalovania makes sense.
Considering it's a Megalo if you look at it that way, I'm surprised there isn't the obligatory variation of "Birds are singing, Flowers are blooming" like in every single Megalo. That aside, I really love this remix.
For some reason, human scissors reminds me of Mario the music box, by the art style

This is really well done!

This is so cool!
That was awesome
ANOTHER ANIME SWORDSMAN!?!??! IN MY MARIO GAME!?!?!?!

WOW ! a good remix, finally !
You fool dare to challenge me!
the master of cutlery?
On the blade, your doom you'll see
To my sword you'll take a knee
I could heard MEGALOVANIA...?
That's right! I incorporated not only the melody, but the bassline and chord progression from MEGALOVANIA. I was originally going to learn the bassline and chord progression for Scissors theme, but I have a habit of finding every single song that works with the bassline+chord progression of MEGALOVANIA, so I took the lazy way out and mashed it up MEGALOVANIA. Thank you for noticing!
@@Kittygirl-nf9si and the fact that he was the most powerful boss
fuaaaaaa que Genial, me distraje un rato y cuando escuché el tema de sans me perdí jajaja
This is good.
OK, I love this.
I will mash this with Manifest, Fanged Fastener, the real song, and Megalovania
This is how you picture Scissors in human form? That's interesting.
Thank you! I like doing gijinka (humanized forms of characters) because it's good practice for character design, and as I plan on being an independent video game designer one day, character design is an important skill to have. (Also, I find that humans and humanoids are far easier to draw than non-humans... Just my opinion, ww.)
You’re planning on become a game maker?
@@andrewc.7071 Yup! I've always loved playing and watching video games ever since I was a little kid. Not to mention that video games combine visual art with musical composition, as well as good writing, all of those are skills that I love to use. Remixing other video game music is practice for writing my own compositions (which I also do from time to time, I'm just shy about posting my original works because I worry about plagiarism,) while designing human versions of characters is practice for character design in general (really, it's just character design within limits.) I also occasionally write analyses of song lyrics, since that's practice for both writing and storytelling (because you can't expect to write good stories if you don't consume good stories.)
@@Kittygirl-nf9si Same by me! I did it with Jean Pierre! And i work on my own game too! Sadly i am bad at making music but good in Story writing!
I like Scissors in human form, Kittygirl.
A-MA-ZING !!!
ハサミ！ ✂️
someone get this channel more subscribers
Scissors:omae wa mou, shindeir u
Mario:Nani?
Scissors: REEEEEEEEE!
Btw I refer the legion of stationery as he/she instead of they.
I wonder what you’ll do for the Disco Devil, Hold Punch if you do them and maybe the other LoS members?
so I wasn't the only one to see Scisor as a female character
Well I saw Scissors as a female character cause I played the spanish version of the game (all of the characters have a gender there)
@@Lya308_ so she really is a female? I just guessed because rubber band was a female too, and the 3 others previous bosses were all males (Pencil has a male name, Holepunch act like a macho guy and tape has a male hairstyle). Scissor is like quick and efficient in its mouvement and its crual personality might fit for a girl too so I guessed it was one.
@@necrotoy774 Just wanted to tell you that in the spanish version the only male in the Legion of Stationery is Colored Pencils
I actually made a drawing of human female scissors
I'm getting Yandere vibes off this
what is their name? I know the names of Jean, Robert, Nico, and Hans. What is their name?
Wait. That's the Legion of Stationery's actual names? I know there was Jean-Pierre Colored Pencils, but Robert Rubber Band, Nico Hole Punch, and Hans Tape? Correct me if I am wrong about that, though.
Is one arm gone or is it behind the scissors
God I hope second option
your gonna have a bad snip angle
lol
This is looking really ugly...
...I hit his holster too much!
OH MY GOD I DONT WANT STUPID ANIME SWORDSMEN
I WANT TO HEAR.. YAPE
Ey, lookie here! It's me, YAPE! The most powerful of all office supplies.
@@shawnburke-hutchinson5901 YES! FINALLY!
Wait, what do you do?
