The bravery of JSDF is unquestionable. They took horrendous losses trying to hold off Godzilla, until they released they could just re-use the footage of past battles whenever the monsters showed up again. This brilliant decision saved countless lives.
I just realized. The first JSDF March is called“Furigētomāchi”. Transliterated meaning "Frigate march" (no official title given)-as in the ship class. Though Japan doesn't have any frigate classifications, so they might be referring to destroyers (given the context; it's quite ironic and fitting) A Real Imperial Japanese March Composed by Akira Ifubuke during World War 2. It was intended for War Time Military March for the IJN. but it was never used and left abandoned in his desk. Until 1954 when he decided to use the nearly abandoned score as a movie soundtrack for 1954 Godzilla.
Update Edit: Fun fact: the "Godzilla" theme we all know and love wasn't originally his own. Back in the 1954 Gojira, the music piece played three times. It first is heard in the opening titles of the film. It appears two more times within the film during the scenes the army fights Godzilla. In the original film score it was named "Pursue Godzilla" stated to be the main title but the original film score had it named "pursue Godzilla". "Godzilla comes ashore" and "Godzilla's fury" were the slow building dread filled cues of music played during two of his rampage scenes. These were meant to be the score for Godzilla. As for Godzilla's own theme, this was the main score played for when Godzilla would appear in the shoes era with a high temp version of "Godzilla's fury" attacked to it. You can hear this in the opening titles of Godzilla Final wars before the Arctic scene begins though this was heard first in the showa king kong vs Godzilla film. By the time the film Terror of Mechagodzilla arrived, it was already understood that the 1954 opening titles music was associated with the monster so within that film what we know as Godzilla's theme because officially his own during his more heroic shift and played for him several times throughout the series from the end of the showa, most of the heisei, and millennium, and few times further on. "Godzilla's fury" from 1954 and "Godzilla comes ashore" was altered with many variations in the showa era as already stated and also appeared in the heisei movies along side the millennium, changing in tempo over the years film to film. As for the army theme, the music the 1954 film during the scenes where bombs are dropped in the sea to kill Godzilla as well as the scene where the ferry takes off were made as such. Throughout the remainder of the series it would come to be known currently as the "Army March"
I’ve always been of the opinion that if the Japanese Self-Defense Force (JSDF) were to use some or all of these marches as actual songs they play or use as marches, no one would be complaining. They may as well be the music most associated with them to begin with because man, they are good.
I recently unlocked the F-86F Sabre for the Japan tree in War Thunder - as it's the fighter jet which fought Godzilla the most in the Showa era, I blasted these marches through my headphones while playing, and I had tons of fun :)
The Japanese Army March is probably my favorite piece of recurring music in the series. It may not be as iconic as Godzilla's theme is, but it does a fantastic job of establishing the feeling of bravely fighting as hard as you can against all odds.
Its is really good, almost sounds like it was made by an american composer and so does the next one as well. But i still think Akira Ifukube's theme is better, as it is the original
I like the theme cuz it builds a feeling of confidence determination more specifically it makes me feel like the jsdf are confident with their new military might that they could finally bring down Godzilla for good Spoiler alert they can't beat them still a very beautiful music truck but invasion of Astro monsters some jsdf March was better
In my head I’ve always thought of it as the 54 and Monster Zero version being the armies theme as they get ready while the 84 theme was the people’s point of the view of the military getting ready for action.
It would be awesome if McCreary does a version of the Military March for Kong vs Godzilla, I was a little sad we didnt had a revision of it in King of the Monsters.
I'm a massive fan of the SDF prepares for Attack theme, because it gives this feeling, at least in parts, that this is Humanities best and last shot, Our backs are being put against the wall by Aliens and Monsters alike, and it falls to these brave men amd women to dig deep and fight back. That last part is usually the objective in all the military defenses, but when its EVERY MONSTER, its a little more critical
I remember as a kid going into a dvd shop and seeing destroy all monsters at the time I was six and all I thought was big monster cool and the military march stuck with me
The invasion of the astro-monster theme is the best one and probably the most known but the original is good as well considering they are the same just slown down and one has a sound effect instead of an instrument
They are not the same,but they are similar! I know my Orchestral themes! So watch this a couple more times,you will see the difference,and Astro-Monster is much longer than the original,how are they the same?
@@kellykimble665 as yes they are different I have heard them just as a first glance they sound similar but are both really good. I think I'm liking the original 1954 more tho
Try not humming to the tune of these. Believe me, it's hard for a superfan. And I have no choice because it's 3:00 in the morning where I am and I don't want my parents to know I'm up
all of this military marches:Exist Shin godzilla's Yashiori strategy (Battle of outer space):Am i joke to you? Well,considering the music is for urgent/emergency theme,So it still doesnt count huh?
@@jacobsonstudiosgoji okay, the main melody of this theme starts at 1:54, then it starts again at 1:57. It's the same melody of the theme, but one starts a couple seconds after the other. You can hear both of them playing at the same time, one's just a few seconds ahead. They also both end at the same time, despite being a couple seconds off the whole time they're being played
(0:39) This march was in Godzilla vs Mothra 1964? I thought it was only in the 1992 movie. If that's true then I have to hear the 1964 version because this one is amazing.
Yes I love the march and the new movie wow! Godzilla was the winner. I love all the music and yes kong was also great. I have seen the new movie 8 times now.
i wish bear mccreary would listen to all the music From Military March/ G-Force That Akira Ifukube for composing this beautiful music, for making a remix in the Monsterverse!
If they keep redoing the classic music in the new movies, I want them to do a classic military march next. Maybe something less silly sounding from the Heisei or Millenium Eras. Godzilla Against the Self-Defense Forces and G-Force March would be good. But then again, Destroy All Monsters' march would fun to hear too
whenever i feel down i listen to all godzilla themes which you have a video of and this i liked both of them so much i saved a playlist in youtube for this
Godzilla: king of the monsters Mothra: queen of the monsters Ghidorah: three headed demon Roddan: the fire demon King: king of skull island Gamera: Guardian of the universe Muto: demon
I actually get briefly hopeful maybe this time they'll do it and stop me when this plays when they raise the Disaster Level in the Godzilla game, then when the short cutscene stops I go back to obliterating them.
I'm gonna be honest, the JSDF have some serious balls for even trying to take down Godzilla in the first place and for that reason I respect them.
What else are they gonna do just watch?. Like Batman said once "even if there's a one percent chance We have to take it as absolute certainty"
well Japan had way more experience sense Godzilla started there and headed straight for us
Bro,the JSDF actually had the BALLS to actually try and stop the king,
The bravery of JSDF is unquestionable. They took horrendous losses trying to hold off Godzilla, until they released they could just re-use the footage of past battles whenever the monsters showed up again. This brilliant decision saved countless lives.

So what you're saying is if Japan hadn't lost, the Godzilla military march would actually have been Japan's military march? That's cool
Could also be because the song is first used during the scene where a bunch of Destroyers hunt for Godzilla

0:37 is my favorite military march.

Best March literally. Saying 1000th times Akira Ifukube was a true legend.

Mine too
the JSDF theme from godzilla 1984 is supposably from the civilians point of view as they view the military as there're last hope.
Honestly is sounds very cool but the song makes it look very "generic" I do not know how to explain it
ビオランテの時の溢れ出るドラクエ感

True I agree
I loved the lines of toy tanks rolling along to get in attack formation as these marches played!
You know what’s going to happen, but you can’t help but cheer for them.
Destroy All Monsters sounds great but the Invasion of Astro Monster version is my favourite because it described how the Xliens were being defeated.
All of you join me in..escape! *💥*
Japan: *Sends military*
Godzilla: "Ah, they never learn..."
true
Suicidal desperation
Gotta say , Destroy all Monsters have the Most Chaotic poster.
Hot take, 12:33 is slowly becoming my favorite.
7:21 sounds like something straight out of Dragon Quest.
No surprises, since it's the same composer: Koichi Sugiyama.
Pretty much all these tracks give me goosebumps and teary eyes at the same time.
Thank you for this. It is wonderful to hear Ifukube's music again . Like finding an old friend you hadn't seen in years. Again, thank you .
Defense forces 5:36 will always be the endless classic to me,and if i was gonna fight id be using this 🔥🥂
F in the chat for the soldiers who are told they will be intercepting Godzilla and try to slow him down.

These songs unironically slap
2:30 is used in Shin Godzilla!
0:00 is too
It's also used for the Godzilla Battle Line overtime theme
In the credits, the ome during train scene was a sped up battle in outer space theme.
0:00 and 2:30 is pretty much Monster Zero March
I only remember the "G-Force March" since I grew up with the hesei series
It would be awesome if McCreary does a version of the Military March for Kong vs Godzilla, I was a little sad we didnt had a revision of it in King of the Monsters.
SPRidley McCreary isn’t doing Godzilla vs Kong
Junkie XL is the composer not Bear this time.
And that never happened
Cant have a Godzilla movie without the military March
