I love how they reused this theme in Hacker's Memory when Arata supports you in the fight against Arcadimon-possessed Ryuuji. Especially when you remember from where they came from and how the past of these 2 characters had been 👍
Awesome music. No. That doesn't even begin to do this justice. This is the fucking quality music that you think of when you think if you like a character and why, what defines them. And this is Arata Sanada.
honestly my first thought was "ok...first off you wanted power....and to help out...so why the fuck did u not go for the enemy knights....like...wtf...your making it soo much more difficult..." of course i like the challenge he gives
I love how the violin slowly comes into the foreground, eventually drowning out the guitar. It's great storytelling in music if you consider the guitar represents Arata and the violin represents the MC.
Hoo...Hoo Boy. When this theme first started playing, I had to put my controller down and absorb the moment. This theme is probably one the coolest, most heart-sinking tunes in the whole of Digimon.
The Anticipated New World would like to have a word with you. But all jokes aside, this is an amazing theme, and it made me even more mad at Arata for eating Gallantmon
It absorbs based on a % of damage dealt. If you defend his charge attack, his healing gets fucked up a little and it gives you a good opportunity to recover, debilitate him and proceed to wreck him some more.
@@originalmaincharacter5714 You sure? I watched my bro switch to lv.1 Digimon to absorb the Power Impulse Tyrant Cluster and he still healed all his hp. This was on hard mode, Switch version.
It might be just me but my full party of 99lv digimon barely took 1k damage from his charge attacks, throw in King Etemon with Moneky Wrench and he wasnt dangerous at all.
This fight on Hard Mode was such a surprise for me. First time playing, first time with a Digimon game, and I went all in on Hard Mode. I had a few Game Over’s. The “Eve” Eater (where it has Yuuko) messed me up, and BanchoLeomon was pretty tough. But the difficulty jump when going to Arata was insane. I could immediately tell that I wasn’t going to be able to cheese it or do anything with my current team, and I spent the next 3-4 days beefing everyone up. Noise Guard really helped too. This theme suits Arata so well, and I’m glad my favorite character got such an awesome song. I love this game.
I think I'm getting really close to this fight (in cyber sleuth as I have the complete edition and haven't started hackers memory yet). I'm in the same position as you with being my first game and first playthrough. But I did my research so it hasn't been as difficult, eater eve definitely did some damage though. I've spent so much time grinding my digimon that I've maxed out the Friggin playtime clock on the save file, probably from leaving the game open on my switch overnight or something.
Get defence penning attacks, like cannonbeemon or (if you have her) rosemon BM work amazingly. Just remember to block when he winds up his AOE and youll be fine (I was on normal granted but still
May I point out: the fucking orchestral melody under the heavy guitar, sending the moment like you're facing something out of your reach, hoping to scratch its surface as, on the second half, the orchestra fades away, leaving a spot for the same melody to be played through electronic instruments, or otherwhise electronically distorted orchestrals, putting a foot down as you fight your way through, fucking Arata and his goddamn awesomeness.
For me, my eyes sharpened, Vegeta-style, and I let out a sigh of contained anger... *Followed by taking an imaginary battle stance!* Then, I said: " You want my power, do you? Okay, then. *I'LL MAKE YOU CHOKE ON IT!* " (Yeah, I watch so much Anime and DB that I show emotions native to those naturally! 😅😆)
I'll bet it did. Defensive strats are the difference between it taking forever and just not winning at all. They nerfed it a bit in the duology re-release (Enemies are only 1.5x as strong rather than a flatout 2x) but the Vita fight was goddamn rough as hell.
+Machiri Lilithmon is the answer to everything. :P Anything else may as well be a baby compared to her. She can even one-shot Vaccine types with Phantom Pain if you hit them with Bug first.
Anything and everything that pierces and has a double/triple multiplier is basically NEEDED for end-game hard mode unless you plan on cheesing with de/buffs(and even then some bosses like the GC Royal Knights shrug those off)
Oh hello Arata. Guess we're finally fighting this out, huh. Welp. You saw how I took out that big dragon. You know what comes next buddy. Attack Charge Field, Acceleration Charge, *ALL FOR ONE BIG HELPING OF FLASHY BOSS PUNCHHHHH BABY*
+Saif Al-Farai UlForceVeemon and a digimon with a Def-penetrating attack might work. WarGreymon is the easiest to get for that. I did this before thinking of going down that route. Fight is painful without some kind of Defense-ignoring attack.
+Zenihdrol WarGreymon may be the easiest option, but he's not the best. Against any troublesome Eater, Lilithmon is your best friend since Phantom Pain ignores DEF, deals *triple* dark damage, *and* has a 35% chance to inflict Poison. The most broken move in the entire game by far.
I defeated him this evening. It took every single Mega in my team to beat him. He just kept shrugging off a lot of their attacks. So I kept switching them out to gradually chip away at his health.
+Darkstar263 I was so overpowered from grinding out my back up digimon that I was able to beat him without taking a single hit. I just kinda...stared at the screen for a few seconds dumbfounded. Do not underestimate a level 97 Imperialdramon.
Evnyofdeath Most of my team was in the level 70 - 80 range. I think I may have grinded too much lol. I'm probably going to need to be that strong as I plan to attempt the Royal Knights missions before starting the final chapter.
+Darkstar263 Digimon who can pierce defense are your best friends against Eaters (including Eater!Arata), *especially* Lilithmon. Lilithmon is overpowered as hell with her Phantom Pain skill.
I had Alphamon Ouryuken, Rosemon Burst Mode, and Crimson Gallantmon go up against him on my most recent playthrough. Why strategize when you can triple pierce him to eternity and back?
I've beaten him on hard mode. I lost many times. It was a though battle and the only battle where I had to use Guard to minimize his special attack. My team: - Ravemon BM LV60 - MetalSeadramon LV90 - BlackWarGreymon LV90 - Gatomon LV99
It does nuke damage bc Tyrant Cluster is a penetrating attack. Which tends to do the most damage. On NG+, I had a Sakuyamon hold a Memetan Replica and it blocked the damage as I was curious myself to see why it did that much damage. Eater ADAM is by far one of the harder bosses in the game. But like any old Eater, you can debuff him. Buff own Speed, debuff ADAM and put up Safety Guards.
I kinda saw his entire arc comming, after all, he kinda looks like Sauske from Naruto if he were a hacker/nerd( self proclaimed geek) insted of a ninja. I enjoyed it though.
+Zenihdrol Lilithmon. Lilithmon is the answer to almost every dilemma in the game, she's that freaking broken. Up against Vaccine types? Just hit them with Bug and then set Lilithmon loose and let her do her thing.
Playing this game as the first time in hard is so surprising: lets go my digis are strong enough to go to the end :D arata: no, you are not strong enough arata goes 5 turns consecutively :U
None of my friends could beat him on hard, they reverted to normal mode for this fight. I didn't see what the problem was. I just had my PltNumemon nuke his SPD to hell and spammed Mastemon's 25% damage attack til he was at half health and switched to BlkWarGrey for his DEF ignore attack. As long as you defend his charged attacks, he's not that big of a deal.
Original Maincharacter He was still hard though, I had to beat him with my Lilthmon's Super charged Phantom Pain, My Hououmon Speed advantage, My Shine Greymon's Geo flame, My Minervamon strike roll, Beelzemon's special skill that rises attack power every turn. every now and then I had to use Sakuyamon and Kuzuhamon to take away his special stats. That fucker was really hard though. Never got the chance to fight him on normal.
Im gonna be completely honest, I really hate he's after you beat him he is instantly forgiven for everything he's done and then this is quickly forgotten. Almost as fast as people forget about Leopardmon after you beat him
The worst thing he did was absorb Gallantmon(far as we know anyway) and he's shown on the roof okay, but injured, so he didn't do anything irredeemable.
@@TwistahsWorld Two things, With Gallantmon defusing, ot makes you wander whether the other beings be absorbed were diffused, and the second, I wander how much control he actually had over himself despite his assurances he could control it. The game doesn't get that deep into it though so it kinda whatever.
How did you beat him in four turns? It took me over 20 turns to take him down, and I was using a plat digimon before in every fight for the extra exp. Also, it is nice to see a new comment.
I sadly didn't have those two. I was using some random Digimon that I got over time due to their strengths and types since I never looked up who are the strongest.
Kingetemon made this fight a joke even on hard mode. Just used monkey wrench a couple times then one shotted him with an acceleration boosted corona destroyer from Beelzemon BM
Honestly At the Begging I Liked Arata and him being a little eater was fine once he did THIS I was like Omgggggggggggg Whyyyy I have to fight yu I HATE Suedou But atleast I love the theme Tho Lol
Y'all had trouble with this fight on hard mode? Yeah I'm on complete edition but my team going into the fight wasn't even full megas and it only took me like 2 maybe 3 tries
To be honest Arata isn't all that tough on hard either if you know to debuff his speed and buff yours, so you can time when to guard vs his Tyrant Cluster(fuck). Then you just slowly whittle down his HP until he starts spamming Tranquility and it becomes a matter of outdamaging him so he kills himself with the 3rd level ATK buff.
Funny thing is, he mentions he'd been consuming Digimon and Human data because the Eater side of him prompted to. Then it's never mentioned again once he's "rescued" from his assimilation. Makes me wonder; who did he consume?

Awesome music.
No. That doesn't even begin to do this justice. This is the fucking quality music that you think of when you think if you like a character and why, what defines them. And this is Arata Sanada.
He had to absorb Dukemon.. My favorite royal knight. "Ill never forgive you!"
+Zfox you better put some respeck back on his name.
honestly my first thought was "ok...first off you wanted power....and to help out...so why the fuck did u not go for the enemy knights....like...wtf...your making it soo much more difficult..." of course i like the challenge he gives
apparently Gallantmon survived, just injured.
When Gallantmon first returned after that I thought he would soon become ChaosGallantmon and be another boss.
InsertNameHerePl0X He absorbed Takato!
I like how they reused this for Beelzemon in Hacker's Memory when he kills SkullMeramon.
It's the generic best character in the fucking game music, that's all
I love how the violin slowly comes into the foreground, eventually drowning out the guitar. It's great storytelling in music if you consider the guitar represents Arata and the violin represents the MC.

Enjoy it more with hard mode battle
Gosh he doesn't take dmg
The Anticipated New World would like to have a word with you.

Never give a (Hard Mode) boss a one shot multi-hit attack that heals them. NEVER
It absorbs based on a % of damage dealt. If you defend his charge attack, his healing gets fucked up a little and it gives you a good opportunity to recover, debilitate him and proceed to wreck him some more.
My first proper time actually choosing to guard. Being my first game over in the game probably had something to do with it.
@@originalmaincharacter5714 You sure? I watched my bro switch to lv.1 Digimon to absorb the Power Impulse Tyrant Cluster and he still healed all his hp. This was on hard mode, Switch version.
@@obitouchiha9027 Pretty sure it then heals based off whatever damage it would've dealt beyond your Digimon's max HP. Guard is the way to go.
It might be just me but my full party of 99lv digimon barely took 1k damage from his charge attacks, throw in King Etemon with Moneky Wrench and he wasnt dangerous at all.

arata by far had the most awesome music in this game :P
street fighter announcer" and now, fight your rival!!!"
This was the coolest theme yet.
All hail Wisemon, my saviour for this fight. Taking a quarter of Arata’s health really helps.
One of the best boss fight themes I've heard in a long time.
it was at this moment, where suedou went on santa's naughty boy list
*Arata step through portal to transform hears theme kick in. Me "Oh fuck."
For me, my eyes sharpened, Vegeta-style, and I let out a sigh of contained anger... *Followed by taking an imaginary battle stance!*
Then, I said: " You want my power, do you? Okay, then. *I'LL MAKE YOU CHOKE ON IT!* "
(Yeah, I watch so much Anime and DB that I show emotions native to those naturally! 😅😆)
Just like monsoon from MGR:R teaching you to parry, Arata taught me how to guard
The best piece of music in the game, felt so hyped up during this fight
i'm love this game, her gameplays and his band sound
This fight in hard mode was hell
Learned that the hard way.
On Hard difficulty, this was a pure battle of attrition.
Safety Guard, buff and debuff. Heal. Repeat.
Just have to make sure the AI doesnt spam Tyrant Cluster bc thats actually a penetrating attack.
@@RinaShinomiyaVal That's what I did and it still took forever.
I'll bet it did. Defensive strats are the difference between it taking forever and just not winning at all.
They nerfed it a bit in the duology re-release (Enemies are only 1.5x as strong rather than a flatout 2x) but the Vita fight was goddamn rough as hell.
Gives of SMT vibes and I like it
I had no idea until I saw it happening. I was in shock!!!
This is the song that plays when you on your villain arc…:oh wait
Sasuke is that you? :o
Arata the missing uchia
That would make Aiba a Uzumaki, after all they already have red hair...
He even performs a darkness Chidori when transformed!
Sasuke's Brother: Sasuke, i bought you a digimon..
Sasuke: yaaaaaaaay.....
Sasuke's Brother: BUT THEN I DELETED IT!
Sasuke: NOOOOOOO...
Ow the Edge!
I used Boltmon for this. Speed Broke him until he wasn't on the stack at all. Proceeded to beat him down mercilessly with Mastemon and Chaosmon.
+Machiri
Lilithmon is the answer to everything. :P Anything else may as well be a baby compared to her. She can even one-shot Vaccine types with Phantom Pain if you hit them with Bug first.
Anything and everything that pierces and has a double/triple multiplier is basically NEEDED for end-game hard mode unless you plan on cheesing with de/buffs(and even then some bosses like the GC Royal Knights shrug those off)
I badly one shot Leopardmon with her XD
My main strat is just use Supreme Canon with ATK and Acceleration boost an INT break on enemies. Or the same with Transcendent Sword
"Hacking Pride"(this song's title) reminds me a bit of both "A New World Fool" from Persona 4 and Rundas' boss music from Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.
Oh hello Arata. Guess we're finally fighting this out, huh.
Welp. You saw how I took out that big dragon. You know what comes next buddy.
Attack Charge Field, Acceleration Charge, *ALL FOR ONE BIG HELPING OF FLASHY BOSS PUNCHHHHH BABY*
AMAZING,love digimon ❤cherubimon4ever❤
I can play this music over and over!!!!
badass.
"Arata's second theme"... Wait, where is his first??
Best OST best boss best everthing of this battel
*Kiero...*
this themr is pure epicness
I feel like this theme could've used a LITTLE more to it, it feels mostly like buildup, but it's still extremely good.
For more challenge, hard difficulty against him.
+Saif Al-Farai UlForceVeemon and a digimon with a Def-penetrating attack might work. WarGreymon is the easiest to get for that.
I did this before thinking of going down that route. Fight is painful without some kind of Defense-ignoring attack.

+Zenihdrol You were able to get UlForceVeemon before this battle? It only enabled it for me after this fight.
Probably not now that you mention it. Wargreymon is possible though.
honestly hard mode is garbage, not because its too hard but because DEF penetrating moves is the only way to go :/ or Mastemon or UlVeedramon
This fight turned into war of attrition on Hard mode.
I defeated him this evening. It took every single Mega in my team to beat him. He just kept shrugging off a lot of their attacks. So I kept switching them out to gradually chip away at his health.

Digimon who can pierce defense are your best friends against Eaters (including Eater!Arata), *especially* Lilithmon. Lilithmon is overpowered as hell with her Phantom Pain skill.
+Evnyofdeath Unfortunately, Hard Mode, maxed out could not defeat him with ease. I had to switch to Normal mode to literally 2-shot him.
I had Alphamon Ouryuken, Rosemon Burst Mode, and Crimson Gallantmon go up against him on my most recent playthrough.
Why strategize when you can triple pierce him to eternity and back?
I've beaten him on hard mode. I lost many times. It was a though battle and the only battle where I had to use Guard to minimize his special attack.
My team:
- Ravemon BM LV60
- MetalSeadramon LV90
- BlackWarGreymon LV90
- Gatomon LV99
Word to the wise: don't let RUclips get your ass. Kicked
Whoever thought of giving a non final boss an aoe nuke that heals on TOTAL damage dealt was a good idea needs to revaluate their life.
It does nuke damage bc Tyrant Cluster is a penetrating attack. Which tends to do the most damage.
On NG+, I had a Sakuyamon hold a Memetan Replica and it blocked the damage as I was curious myself to see why it did that much damage.
Eater ADAM is by far one of the harder bosses in the game. But like any old Eater, you can debuff him. Buff own Speed, debuff ADAM and put up Safety Guards.
Most unexpected plot twist, in my opinion.
I kinda saw his entire arc comming, after all, he kinda looks like Sauske from Naruto if he were a hacker/nerd( self proclaimed geek) insted of a ninja. I enjoyed it though.
This fight was the first time I had to turn off Hard Mode. So many turns taken. So much damage healed from a single attack. Urgh.
+Zenihdrol
Lilithmon. Lilithmon is the answer to almost every dilemma in the game, she's that freaking broken. Up against Vaccine types? Just hit them with Bug and then set Lilithmon loose and let her do her thing.
GIVE ME YOUR POWER
Me in my head: You want it. YOU'LL HAVE TO TAKE IT.
Me: Oh, you want it, do you? Okay, then, I'll give it to you. As a matter of fact, IT'LL BE SO MUCH YOU'LL CHOKE ON IT!!!

can some one loop this for an hour
i need it pls
Digimon Story
Tried 3 times to beat him on hard and got raped every single time.
Then tried normal and beat him in like 4 turns...
That difficulty spike
How did you beat him in four turns? It took me over 20 turns to take him down, and I was using a plat digimon before in every fight for the extra exp. Also, it is nice to see a new comment.
Mastemon's special move which reduces his hp by 25% and then Lilithmon's special move Phantom Pain works wonders
I sadly didn't have those two. I was using some random Digimon that I got over time due to their strengths and types since I never looked up who are the strongest.
I always tried to get digimon that looked great lol
Raydnt how did u survive his aoe attacks?
Kingetemon made this fight a joke even on hard mode. Just used monkey wrench a couple times then one shotted him with an acceleration boosted corona destroyer from Beelzemon BM
Damn. Why is the hardest boss in this game some anime nerd?
Uff esto en modo difícil (X.X)
YAMAOSURUNAAAAAA
3 weeks, still cant beat this boss. Hard mode.
And where the fuck is alphamon in this battle
Not yet?
Is there an extended version of this?
Not sure if someone has extended it on RUclips, but you can alternatively right click on the vid and use the "loop" option.
Honestly At the Begging I Liked Arata and him being a little eater was fine once he did THIS I was like Omgggggggggggg Whyyyy I have to fight yu I HATE Suedou But atleast I love the theme Tho Lol
Bro,he should have at least TASTED examon
Y'all had trouble with this fight on hard mode? Yeah I'm on complete edition but my team going into the fight wasn't even full megas and it only took me like 2 maybe 3 tries
I don't know why people are having so much trouble on Arata... I easily defeated him...
Oh, its because they fought on hard mode.
The correct way to play the game
Lol
To be honest Arata isn't all that tough on hard either if you know to debuff his speed and buff yours, so you can time when to guard vs his Tyrant Cluster(fuck). Then you just slowly whittle down his HP until he starts spamming Tranquility and it becomes a matter of outdamaging him so he kills himself with the 3rd level ATK buff.
See look how technical hard mode is lol. I just buff and attack. Btw i never use block because in my opinion its a waste of a turn. Lol
dat gita :v
Arata...why'd you have to go down the bad guy path?
I mean, I GET why, but still...
Funny thing is, he mentions he'd been consuming Digimon and Human data because the Eater side of him prompted to. Then it's never mentioned again once he's "rescued" from his assimilation.
Makes me wonder; who did he consume?
Well.... the one guy who was consumed on-screen was saved aong with Arata himself.... so I guess it doesn't matter...?
shion980
Arata's my favorite character in the game, and seeing him become a bad guy upset me.
+Supreme Shoutmon yea he was my favorite too he had more heart than the other characters
Doesn't matter, cuz it all gets cosmic retconned anyway, lul.
