As someone said, no matter who wins here, someones going to lose, and that loss will be the end of a entire race. The music fits not only as a means of being the final battle, but to show how dire it is. A battle for survival, for both sides.
theres a easter egg/reference in Mario and Luigi Bowsers inside story where in Fawful's castle aka bowsers castle in the theater if u go to the right in the first row u will actually see a shroob! and when u talk to it, it will have just "..." as if its like "sh*t im caught" search it up on RUclips and u will see it
I remember playing this game when I was like 7, and I was never able to kill the final boss. It freaked me out as well, since it was a pretty happy game up to then.
This theme is so fitting, Elder Shroob is desperate to the point she's killing her own people just to try to get a hit on you, it makes you feel bad for the shroobs if not just a little, despite how awful they are.
Nah, the Shroobs are monsters, completely rotten to the core. They only live to destroy. No leader would consider using a fleet as projectiles, but their dark mindset makes it easy to do.
The Shroobs never once attempted diplomacy. They could've peacefully integrated with the beings of Earth. Plus, their home planet decaying wasn't presented in a very sympathetic light, especially when you consider how they actively chose to invade and take over.
This is rather unique for a final boss battle theme in the Mario series; most of them are fast-paced and fill you with that rush to beat the boss, but this one is much slower and more melancholy. Don't get me wrong though, it fits the atmosphere of that battle great!
Well think about it, this battle decides which species goes extinct. It's a dire and desperate battle for both sides of the coin. Either way somebody is going to lose.
It always horrified me how once one brother-pair is fully defeated, the remaining brother carrys both babys in a last attempt to protect their lives :'(
My first mario and luigi game at 8 years old... didn't dissapoint. I fought this battle when there was a thunder storm outside, lights were out, I had nothing to do.. so I played this.. Lets just say this series is the greatest mario series that HAS and WILL ever exist. I don't see much story in the other games. This boss took me probably 2 hours.. but It was the greatest boss I've ever fought..
bowser's inside story for its gameplay, but partners in time for its story and music. god damn i loved those 2 games, and i'll still love them. mostly partners in time because i played it during my childhood
What I liked about this game is that they don’t portray peach as an useless princess, she really tried to do all she could to protect her kingdom and didn’t rely completely on the Bros, I mean, she faced both shroob sisters and captured one of them by herself and actively helped in the final battle... till the monstrousity and real form of queen shroob showed up…
It’s lovely to see legends like yourself at the far flung corners of youtube. And also this game was fantastic, you’ve always had good taste in games my man.
Princess shroob: This is too easy, why is this a boss? Pricess shroob's sister: Wow this is hard I hate this uggh. Super shroob: STOP DYING MARIO I LEVELED YOU UP FOR A REASON!
by traveling through time, the brothers created a loop in history. By creating that loop they now have memories of the adult brothers coming to help their younger selves.
@@vlasic5522 in one of the other Mario & Luigi games there's a room where there's a shroob frozen. It **does** actually say that they remembered fighting against hem as babies. There was also an interaction with another character in a different Mario & Luigi game where they Mario and Luigi try to talk about what had happened to another character that was there, but the character didn't remember as they had memory loss. (I think it was Kylie Koopa)
I heard a lot of thing about this fight...I was really worried that maybe it was gonna too hard Beat her on my second try and im really happy that I didn't have difficulties with this wonderful fight
So, I'm reading the comments to see that people are saying this is the only good thing in partners in time so... Am I the only one who likes this game?!
If you think abut it... the consequences for Mario and Luigi failing here would result in not only the end of the mushroom kingdom, but Mario and Luigi would never have gotten the chance to grow up, never have been heroes... never been able to prevent the end of the universe... this battle is probably more important than all the others, because if this one was failed, the others would never have happened.
It’s such a shame that we will never hear a definitive remastered version of this theme, because this is tied for first with In The Final from Bowser’s Inside Story in my personal opinion. RIP AlphaDream. :(
honestly . I’ll always keep it alive in my heart though . Looking back at this theme now just really sheds light on the genius of the composers, with the deep chimes of the clocks and everything setting the tone
@@lightmarginits 1 single Composer; her name is Yoko Shimomura; she did the Super Mario RPG OST and all of the Mario and Luigi game OSTs; shes also known for being the composer for most of the Kingdom Hearts games
Man i remember it taking me 3 weeks to beat the final boss without a doubt the hardest fight in all of the mario and luigi saga rest easy alphadream you will always stay in our hearts
What makes this song so emotional is that no matter which side wins, and entire race will die. This piece of music adds more of that emotion and conflict to the fight and it's so beautuful 😢😢
Still gives me goosebumps when I listen to this song. It was not the best bossfight ever, but THIS SONG!!! When I am about to face a great challenge, it somehow empowers me :D
+Ultra[]Z[]Gamerz if you want to beat her in half an hour defeat as many eneimeies before hand,then use mix flowers to get rid of her arms and legs,then do what you can to get rid of the crown,after that do as much damage as you can!
(This happened when I was 6 years old) Me: Yay I beat older sistew! EPS: *activates crown and that creepy glint sound plays* Peach: Aaaah! EPS: ROOAAR! Me: AAAAAH MOMMY THERE'S A GIANT ALIEN MUSHROOM!
Your Boy Guzma I played this game when I was about 5, and I saw this coming. Even as a measly 5 year old I had played enough games to know, "That boss was too...regular, so there must be something after."
Playing this for the first time as a 10 year old, i remember beating the elder sister, just for her to activate the crown and this theme kicks in. I was legitimately scared lmao
One of, if not THE best final boss themes ever. The roar at the beginning makes its SO much better, it really captures how desperate Queen Shroob is to defeat you, actually using her own troops as literal ammunition as a last ditch effort to defeat the Mario bros.
I forgot just how good the box art for this game looks. Also this is the video that introduced me to this game all the way back in 2013 and for that thank you
so fucking epic. This song tells a story, allow me to translate. -The final moments before the end -Pulling through,get hit, and get back up. The roar in the beginning tells you that this is the most epic fucking boss music ever.
When I was like 10, I was very emotive, and the tension during this final boss was so high that the first time I fought it I fell sick from too many emotions : the end of a game I took a whole damn year to beat, the tensed atmosphere of the fight and of course the thought that it's a fight for which race is going to get extincted. It's the only game that made me feel that, and just for that it's in my pantheon of video games.
This game means a lot to me because my cousin would play it all the time with me but he's no longer with us so i tried to beat the game but was never able to and got stuck on the boss before this one. (Just to let you know I'm not one of those assholes who use the death of a loved one for attention)
+Ahmad Hanafee Abdul Hamid >elder princess shroob >debatably the hardest boss in the game >have to be REALLY fucking high leveled and skilled to beat within atleast 15 minutes >says it took one minute to beat her Don't. Just don't even try.
This song gives me HORRIBLE memories... I loved this game, but OH MY GOD. I spent at least 5 hours on this boss, because I was underlevelled, and had NO Bros. items... and refused to give up... What a nightmare. ; _ ;
This game is like Mario's equivalent to Sonic Generations, Adult Mario and Luigi (Modern M and L) meet up with Baby Mario and Luigi (Classic M and L) and both team up in the same adventure to fight the main antagonist.
I was so under-leveled and lack of items the first time I beat this it took a little less than three hours. This music actual took a toll on me I felt almost scared and really depressed.
Still to this day, in 2023, I remember this boss battle more than any other boss battles in gaming. Even Kratos vs Zeus comes second to this one in my mind, such an amazing battle
The Final Boss is synonymous with the main enemy in the majority RPGs as well as being the climax of the plot; it is what all of that training was for. This IS the Final Boss by definition of what is the final boss is. The fight that comes after that was more like a "goodie" that the developers inserted, probably to calm the empty feeling that one gets when you finish a really good game/series/book.
I love this music. It's the only video game music I've looked for to download so far. All other soundtracks I have come from movies. This music is epic enough to be in a movie. Nuff said.
+Sour Memes Well I was a very strategized nine year old. I was sweating like nobodies business and my hands were going numb, but it took me an hour and a half to win. I kept saying, "THIS IS THE GREATEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE!!!"
+Sour Memes In reality, the fight with regular princess shroob took about ten tries. But when I finally beat her, I said to myself, I can't give this chance up.
So did i. Only took about half an hour. Princess shroob died in like 2 turns, whilst elder shrrob took another 2. The third form took about 20 turns And uh... shrowser? We dont talk about shrowser. How was all this possible? Be level 26 with 99 copy flowers with the dynamic badge A on mario and the multi whatever badge in luigi. The dynamic badge A quadrupled the power of attack items but consumed 4 whilst the multi free badge let me use any attack item i had for free. Copy flower spam/mix flower for elder shroobs crown and legs. Only items used were about 5 1 up supers.
I love this, and I wish there were more boss themes like it. Extremely epic like a final boss battle should be, but with a saddened twist, like in this one. It makes you feel for the Elder Princess, despite that she is an alien psycho.
@1supermiguel Both. The componist that made the soundtrack for Kingdom Hearts made the soundtrack for the Mario & Luigi RPG series as well. As such, none of them will lose.
I was in the same position as you when I fought this boss; I think I literally went at it for a good half hour or more taking her down, this fight is definitely one of the more intense battles of attrition I ever fought in a video game. The fantastic music made it all worth it though, this is still one of my favorite final boss themes.
This is just amazing. This battle is a battle to the death, with the one who gets defeated will lose an entire race. This song makes it a tragic battle of survival. Either mario triumphs, but the aliens who needed a home will perish or elder princess shroob stops mario, but at the cost of the population of the mushroom kingdom. In the final may be my favorite, but this is the best final boss of any mario and luigi game. Don't get me wrong, in the final is epic in it's own right and the battle also has high stakes, but this has a greater deal of pressure and tragedy as there will be loss of an entire race. Nobody wins without a price. This is why this song is the best final boss theme in the series of Mario and luigi.
@Wackygirl74 Yoko Shimomura, from KH series, Radiant Historia and Legend of Mana series, as well as Final Fight and Street Fighter... ...probably the top female composer for video Games ...She's also doing Final Fantasy stuff, i think its the FF13 versus
First three ML RPGs battle by categories: Plot: BIS Antagonists: PIT Difficulty: PIT Idle Music: BIS Battle Music: BIS Final Boss: BIS Final Boss Music: PIT Final Boss Difficulty: SS Epicness: PIT "Loveableness": BIS Diversity: PIT Most fun to play: BIS Results: BIS - 6 Points PIT - 5 Points SS - 1 Point Congratulations to Bowser's Inside Story for winning and of course to Partners In Time for this close 2nd place!
The funny thing about this boss is that i defeated it without gears and armor (as a kid it was my first rpg and i didnt know hood english bach then, so i thought that gears/clothes are useless. It took me at least 5 hours... God....)
Man, why do people shit on this game? People don't like it, and I had that mindset going in, but I ended up LOVING it. At least it will be more appreciated now that paper jam has taken the place of worst mario and luigi game
I need to remember this music at least for the next seven decades, or however long it will take for my life to end. This theme is connected to so much nostalgia...
Pug 0001 This one is more geared towards a final fight that will determine the fate of the world, while the BIS theme is kinda the same thing, but without the whole "One race will go extinct" thing goin' on.
I JUST noticed that in every M&L game, the villain possesses/mimics Bowser in some way: SS: Bowletta. PiT: The battle after this. BIS: Dark Bowser. It took me years to notice, I know.
wow this is actually pretty good! I didn't think that it would be this awesome but it is! Awesome Mario music! The shadow queen second battle is pretty good too!
GOD. This was a difficult battle. ...ok, maybe not difficult, but VERY long. If you have the right items/ equips, it is easy... but it is VERY, VERY long.
I've been humming this all day. It fits perfectly when you are under a severe time limit, like in an exam. I actually got told off for humming too loudly in class :3
For the longest time, I called this song "Yet Another Requiem", but I've also seen it called "Another's Requiem" or "Another Requiem". Meanwhile, according to the Mario Wiki, it's listed on the "Mario & Luigi RPG: Sound Selection" soundtrack CD as もう一人のレクイエム and the English translation they give for that is "One Person's Requiem"... I suppose it's just easier to call it "The Final Battle" or "Elder Princess Shroob", but honest, I like the other name(s) better, it sounds more poetic. Actually, I tend to like video game soundtrack names like that more often then just the basic "character battle theme" or "level 1" or whatever... even if it does make it confusing when you're looking up the track in question.(that roar at the beginning, though)

This song floored me when I first got here. Mario RPG's never disappoint with final boss music
I still can't believe that I beat this on my first try.
+Sour Memes Well I was a very strategized nine year old. I was sweating like nobodies business and my hands were going numb, but it took me an hour and a half to win. I kept saying, "THIS IS THE GREATEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE!!!"
+Sour Memes In reality, the fight with regular princess shroob took about ten tries. But when I finally beat her, I said to myself, I can't give this chance up.
So did i. Only took about half an hour. Princess shroob died in like 2 turns, whilst elder shrrob took another 2.
The third form took about 20 turns
And uh... shrowser? We dont talk about shrowser.
How was all this possible? Be level 26 with 99 copy flowers with the dynamic badge A on mario and the multi whatever badge in luigi. The dynamic badge A quadrupled the power of attack items but consumed 4 whilst the multi free badge let me use any attack item i had for free.
Copy flower spam/mix flower for elder shroobs crown and legs. Only items used were about 5 1 up supers.
These threads 😂😂
I love this, and I wish there were more boss themes like it. Extremely epic like a final boss battle should be, but with a saddened twist, like in this one. It makes you feel for the Elder Princess, despite that she is an alien psycho.
They should have called it "The end of time."
It's actually called "Another's Requiem".
@@nintendoentertainmentsyste5705 no it's not
@@ancients6623 yes it is
@1supermiguel Both. The componist that made the soundtrack for Kingdom Hearts made the soundtrack for the Mario & Luigi RPG series as well. As such, none of them will lose.
If I'm correct, this song was composed by Yoko Shimomura. Knowing that, this song really starts to remind me of Vector to the Heavens...
That is correct. Yoko Shimomura also composed the music for The Kingdom Hearts games, and some of, if not all, of the music for Xenoblade Chronicles.
I was in the same position as you when I fought this boss; I think I literally went at it for a good half hour or more taking her down, this fight is definitely one of the more intense battles of attrition I ever fought in a video game. The fantastic music made it all worth it though, this is still one of my favorite final boss themes.
It isnt the same without the roar
This is just amazing. This battle is a battle to the death, with the one who gets defeated will lose an entire race. This song makes it a tragic battle of survival. Either mario triumphs, but the aliens who needed a home will perish or elder princess shroob stops mario, but at the cost of the population of the mushroom kingdom. In the final may be my favorite, but this is the best final boss of any mario and luigi game. Don't get me wrong, in the final is epic in it's own right and the battle also has high stakes, but this has a greater deal of pressure and tragedy as there will be loss of an entire race. Nobody wins without a price. This is why this song is the best final boss theme in the series of Mario and luigi.
You know what, fuck it I'm gonna say it- this is more beautiful than Final Hours from Majora's Mask.
There ya go.
@Wackygirl74 Yoko Shimomura, from KH series, Radiant Historia and Legend of Mana series, as well as Final Fight and Street Fighter...
...probably the top female composer for video Games
...She's also doing Final Fantasy stuff, i think its the FF13 versus

Congratulations to Bowser's Inside Story for winning and of course to Partners In Time for this close 2nd place!
I like partners in time more than bowser inside story I dont like How your inside bowser for manly the whole game
One of the best final boss themes I've ever heard in a Mario game.
This song is better with the *RAWR* at the begenning.
I have used this for a few flipnotes, thank you for posting this on youtube so i could use it for my flipnote music.
The funny thing about this boss is that i defeated it without gears and armor (as a kid it was my first rpg and i didnt know hood english bach then, so i thought that gears/clothes are useless. It took me at least 5 hours... God....)
And maybe someday you'll master it.
I hope so.:)
D5dizzler This freaking boss took me 4 hours, and i could remove 50 hp max to every body part!
There’s that roar we all love! XD
Man, why do people shit on this game? People don't like it, and I had that mindset going in, but I ended up LOVING it. At least it will be more appreciated now that paper jam has taken the place of worst mario and luigi game
hrhnicholasable yeah, paper jam sucked. this and Bowser's inside story were the best
paper jam was my favorite
I need to remember this music at least for the next seven decades, or however long it will take for my life to end.
This theme is connected to so much nostalgia...
I perfuer the mario and luigi bowser's inside story final boss music
I think I do too
i think i like it when you can spell
I KNEW Yoko Shimomura did this song! It just sounded like one of her works. Amazing as always.
mario and luigi bowser inside story final boss battle theme sounds better than this
I think so too.
But only slightly better.
Pug 0001 This one is more geared towards a final fight that will determine the fate of the world, while the BIS theme is kinda the same thing, but without the whole "One race will go extinct" thing goin' on.
no
I prefer this one as it encapsulates the theme well
I JUST noticed that in every M&L game, the villain possesses/mimics Bowser in some way:
SS: Bowletta.
PiT: The battle after this.
BIS: Dark Bowser.
It took me years to notice, I know.
@Jakerooo123 That is the BEST summation of the importance of this battle. Seriously. I tip my hat to you.
Dark Bowser had little HP (1000) because they also needed Mario and Luigi to fight Fawful Bug...... But still it is easy.
The finale music of this game really makes you feel like you could take on the entire world as long as you have your friend by your side.
wow this is actually pretty good! I didn't think that it would be this awesome but it is! Awesome Mario music! The shadow queen second battle is pretty good too!
I love the fact that its like if u lose u world will be lost but yet u die and u get to restart the battle XD
The music in the Mario and Luigi games are seriously awesome, I can't wait for the next one. And the box art on here is cool too!
Music from DS games are typically pretty epic.
Shrowser: *Roars in the start of this track*
RUclipsr: "The one thing that makes this tune legendary."
The only game where toads died... Paradise in a video game.
GOD. This was a difficult battle. ...ok, maybe not difficult, but VERY long. If you have the right items/ equips, it is easy... but it is VERY, VERY long.
I've been humming this all day. It fits perfectly when you are under a severe time limit, like in an exam. I actually got told off for humming too loudly in class :3
:3
For the longest time, I called this song "Yet Another Requiem", but I've also seen it called "Another's Requiem" or "Another Requiem". Meanwhile, according to the Mario Wiki, it's listed on the "Mario & Luigi RPG: Sound Selection" soundtrack CD as もう一人のレクイエム and the English translation they give for that is "One Person's Requiem"...
I suppose it's just easier to call it "The Final Battle" or "Elder Princess Shroob", but honest, I like the other name(s) better, it sounds more poetic. Actually, I tend to like video game soundtrack names like that more often then just the basic "character battle theme" or "level 1" or whatever... even if it does make it confusing when you're looking up the track in question.(that roar at the beginning, though)
