The boss just wanted Eyja to enjoy the life she has left and asked her to be truly happy. Probably the most wholesome bossfight I've ever fought. Also the epilogue with two sheeps in the end that alludes that they were Eyja's parents, broke my heart.
@@valmariel Remember, Dolly says that he can't capture people's spirits. They are not her parents, they are sheep that Dolly made based on her parents, t's sweet as a sign of how much he cared
Not even mischievous, he's a friendly Sovereign and he actively solved so many problems, while enjoying himself, and making sure everyone is as well. You can see at the end of the event, everybody is now better off - Ceylon is now making up with her father, her father's problem was solved by her, and she is now achieving her dreams. Eyja finally got over her suffering and is now able to finally move forward. The city is now healing. Dolly truly was wise.
This event is such a rollercoaster of emotions. On one side, it’s such a vibe, the enemies and music are chef kiss. On the other, it destroyed me right in the feels, specially the ending. Eyja deserves all the headpats.
I mean that what AK have been thru all this time. Especially event stories. Like the event in underground, where you thought it will be just fun water park, or the event where Ceobe got high on shrooms, or the first Siesta event.
Yea this event like most summer beach events are our yearly anni and since we are behind cn by 6 months we get it during winter, they are wholesome for the most part and the boss is a mischievous sheep. Happy 4th anni to you to marco!
@@SoulWhiteAngel june to august is winter here, summer is december to february. january-march is mid summer to early autumn. Im burning in my room rn, 29c with 90% humidity
Extremely sad fact: Eyjafjalla much like many Rhodes Island operators has Oripathy. An incurable and fatal degenerative disease that crystallizes part of the body. Unfortunately, Eyjafjalla’s case is extremely severe and advanced since the crystallization has happened near the back portion of her brain. As a result of this, she is legally blind and deaf and can only see very poorly with glasses and needs a hearing aid. In fact, she is one of the operators we have definitive confirmation of how much time she has left to live. And while the exact number is not known, it is generally accepted that she has under 10 years left to live due to the progression of her disease.
@@Xephyranth yeah, her alter’s story event takes place in the future relative to the main story and in the event she talks about how her illness is even worse, and how she knows she has precious little time left
@@Xephyranth I remember back when she was announced for CN, we thought we are going to get some kind of heart breaking story where she dies in the end or something and this is like her bucket list
Very fun event currently in the game. a lot of goofy fun and good vibes mixed with some more serious tpoics now and then. Gameplay and presentation are on point!
Would be really nice to have another livestream like last year to celebrate the anniversary, that one was very good and this year I saw more banger songs dropping too. Well it does not hurt to ask, either way wish you the best! Thanks for the video!
A little bit of lore and story for my friend Marco here: The boss of this event is a Beast Lord named Dolly, the Sovereign of Sheep (he/him) Beast Lords are essentially spirits of nature. If they're killed, they respawn; so they're ancient. There were some Beast Lords presented already, notoriously the Duck Lord (a businessman), Emperor from Penguin Logistics and Zarro from Il Siracusano event. Being ancient spirits they tend to have a sense of obliviousness when it comes to human affairs. The Wolf Lords do a battle royale with humans they use as proxy. Dolly, although mostly uninterested in human affairs, tends to make friendships with those he finds interesting. Adele (aka Eyjafjalla) is the daughter of two famous researchers he'd met in the past. Adele is a very young and accomplished volcanologist, dedicated from a very early age to follow the footsteps of her parents. Dolly's message to her is that she should relax and have fun sometimes. He makes clones that resemble people he befriended through his lifetime and he only lets some people actually see him; even Adele thought she was hallucinating for a while. He algo enjoys lavasurfing, such a chad!
btw Marco, do you have any plans on doing another big ak livestream, where you check out lots of tracks from the previous year? You did this in the beginning of last year and I'm sure the AK community would love another jam session with you, to some amazing tracks from 2023 :)
Every soundtrack in this even is so good, and they mix and switch each other in way that not gets you bored. Even the lobby theme with background changes depending on the time of the day, so when you think you already used to it, it still ends up catching your attention.
Now that Arknights had celebrated its 5th anniversary with such a banger song. I, and probably many people, would love to see and hear your reaction and your speculations from the MV. It's always a delight to watch your Arknights video
Love your commentary. So insightful and so informative as always. Can you comment on the sheepily playfully chaotic bgm of this sheep event too? It's just a stage bgm but it fits the soul of this event pretty nicely.
Woah, your beard grows fast, kinda neat And great reaction. The boss is not like an average evil villain, and fun & joy indeed You should react to the lobby theme too. The lobby themes are fantastic (the day & night side)
Whenever there's good OST in game we can always find Marco there 😂 Good to see you enjoy Arknights OST. Don't forget next month we need to keep our motivation or ...... Yowai!! 😎
I haven't played Arknights in a hot minute and joined back right around this event, with the theme and tone of the trailer I was here thinking it was lighthearted and silly event only to be sucker punched in the face with "the feels." This event has a very melancholic tone despite being "silly" and lighthearted at times, especially with the event's lobby music (Misty Memory) which has suddenly become my most listened to song in the past week. The line of "Should've taken home more than those bittersweet memories" is just.. _wow_ I don't care much for all the discourse about "alters" this event, as far as I'm concerned it's a genuinely beautiful event that I'm glad I didn't miss. (That said I still have yet to clear SL 8 though, my operator's are very weak against Dolly at the moment lol)
Imagine lost to a bunch of cute sheep. Fought demons, monstrosities, strong warriors with otherworldly powers, even god-like beings, yet get beaten by silly pink sheep
Marcos choices of ark music are always unpreditable. There are a lot other ark songs who are more in line with his profession. But whatever it is its welcome
I cannot help but hear Megalovania layered over THAT part. You know which one. It's literally just missing the double high note at the start, then we'd have the Megalovania leitmotiv
Marco, you should really really react to the new cinematic, Still Here, from league of legends season 2024. The music is amazing but looking back at how you reacted to Kindred's theme it might be more interesting for you to actually see a cinematic where they are in. I'm sure you'll love it. Also great reaction as always! First time I hear this song and I fucking love it. Really can't stop digging to it!
Granblue Fantasy is another great one for music. Highly recommend it, also because the game itself is very Free to Play friendly, though not necessarily very RUclips Content friendly.
If you're not planning to play the game to see the part in-game, then I'd love for you to at least react to Alan Wake 2's "Herald of Darkness" Music video because it is such a good piece of music, it's like a musical! 😸
Here's the Creator of the music who goes through the creation of the song's for this event. ruclips.net/video/vX4IiFx7OWg/видео.htmlsi=RSmqCTmm6uEwa3OP
RUclips recommendations once more! Guilty Gear Strive calls for all the little EXTRAS of life oh hallelujah! Dunno if you done them before for FromSoft games but Demon Souls has 2 REEEEEAAALLY strong songs that will haunt you for a while. Epitaph for Boletaria & Abandoned by the Gods(w/ Lady Astreas & Garl Vinlands dialogue) you ever have a video game hit you in the gut telling you YOU are the villian of this story and feel instant regret for ever trying to beat this game? Then pick Abandoned by the Gods
Hey Marco! I have recommendation for you. I think you missed out one battle theme from Genshin which is the Tower of Gestalt Battle Theme. Idk but people barely talk about this battle theme so Can you be able analyse it
As you caught on with the music, the boss is a lighthearted one. You're not facing down some sort of villain but a mischievous spirit.
The boss just wanted Eyja to enjoy the life she has left and asked her to be truly happy. Probably the most wholesome bossfight I've ever fought.
Also the epilogue with two sheeps in the end that alludes that they were Eyja's parents, broke my heart.
@@valmariel Remember, Dolly says that he can't capture people's spirits. They are not her parents, they are sheep that Dolly made based on her parents, t's sweet as a sign of how much he cared
@@XenoflareBahamut bro thinks he's Tahu from Bionicle
Not even mischievous, he's a friendly Sovereign and he actively solved so many problems, while enjoying himself, and making sure everyone is as well.
You can see at the end of the event, everybody is now better off - Ceylon is now making up with her father, her father's problem was solved by her, and she is now achieving her dreams. Eyja finally got over her suffering and is now able to finally move forward. The city is now healing. Dolly truly was wise.
@@valmariel There's also a copy of Ceylon's mother, Grampa Mockingbird, so on.
"That's really effervescent"
FUNNILY ENOUGH, "Effervescent" is the name of another one of the battle tracks for this event.
This event is such a rollercoaster of emotions. On one side, it’s such a vibe, the enemies and music are chef kiss. On the other, it destroyed me right in the feels, specially the ending. Eyja deserves all the headpats.
I mean that what AK have been thru all this time. Especially event stories. Like the event in underground, where you thought it will be just fun water park, or the event where Ceobe got high on shrooms, or the first Siesta event.
Should we tell Marco this events menu theme has a day and night ver might be a interesting video idea 😏
Also there is an acoustic version (Official, but instrumental only)
We should🎉
Yessss!!
Yea this event like most summer beach events are our yearly anni and since we are behind cn by 6 months we get it during winter, they are wholesome for the most part and the boss is a mischievous sheep.
Happy 4th anni to you to marco!
Elloo~
eyo
@@tomatomaki
its summer in the southern hemisphere my man, seasonal events are always gonna be weird for some people. also hi
@@Dicaso9 well i mean 'jan-March' is considered the winter season
Also hi to you too
@@SoulWhiteAngel june to august is winter here, summer is december to february. january-march is mid summer to early autumn. Im burning in my room rn, 29c with 90% humidity
This boss this plays for is literally a giant fluffy pink sheep that can talk and can only be seen by Eyjafjalla. He’s like her imaginary friend.
Kids also saw sheeps, and few other people. But yes this was one of most annoying bosses to beat :D
@@Beastlordius maybe people with good imagination?
Well hello there, the Boss is literaly a big fluffy pink sheep
You should definitely listen to the menu music in the event. One of the best ones they've done so far.
I started Arknights a few days ago and this event music caught me off guard. All of it is soo good. Love the event menu theme as well!
yo welcome to Arknights!
hope you stay for long!

*Eyja alter gets announced*
AK: *community both happy and sad*
it's a known fact alters are time skips and god, she's getting worse as time progresses
@@Xephyranth yeah, her alter’s story event takes place in the future relative to the main story and in the event she talks about how her illness is even worse, and how she knows she has precious little time left
the really sad part is we don't have a playable character that died yet and oh god, hypergyph better not do us like this
@@Xephyranth What's that?! Oh GOd oh _mercy_ !!! Here comes beagle with the steel chair!!!!
or fang. Whoever it was. our poor little three stars
@@Xephyranth I remember back when she was announced for CN, we thought we are going to get some kind of heart breaking story where she dies in the end or something and this is like her bucket list
Bruh, you sure you're not looking up about the event??? Cause damn, you accurately described the final Boss' personality just from his theme
Very fun event currently in the game. a lot of goofy fun and good vibes mixed with some more serious tpoics now and then. Gameplay and presentation are on point!
Would be really nice to have another livestream like last year to celebrate the anniversary, that one was very good and this year I saw more banger songs dropping too. Well it does not hurt to ask, either way wish you the best! Thanks for the video!
I've been waiting for this event on global ever since it dropped on CN. Everything about it is just so GOOD.
Saw Marco and arknights in the thumbnail I immediately clicked faster than anything. Will be back when video is over
this is the 1st event where i like all the song in the whole music album, one of the best in my book

And the New Song "Unbreakable" is so cute and beatiful
Arknights Music always delivers!, and Marco video always are a great time! Thanks for the vid' Marco :D
ok mais Eyjafjalla where
I'm so happy you covered this song! I love when I can jam and feel stress at the same time. Glad you thought so well of this soundtrack!
Now that Arknights had celebrated its 5th anniversary with such a banger song. I, and probably many people, would love to see and hear your reaction and your speculations from the MV. It's always a delight to watch your Arknights video
i hope you also review the Joklumarkr IS expedition ost theme, its wild and i want to hear what you gonna say about it
There’s also day and night version called misty memory which is insane
The boss is a giant sheep thing
Love your commentary. So insightful and so informative as always. Can you comment on the sheepily playfully chaotic bgm of this sheep event too? It's just a stage bgm but it fits the soul of this event pretty nicely.
Woah, your beard grows fast, kinda neat
And great reaction. The boss is not like an average evil villain, and fun & joy indeed
You should react to the lobby theme too. The lobby themes are fantastic (the day & night side)
that thumbnail smile says it all !! ❤
Whenever there's good OST in game we can always find Marco there 😂
Good to see you enjoy Arknights OST.
Don't forget next month we need to keep our motivation or ......
Yowai!! 😎
Caerula Arbor Main Theme is one of the best music arknights ever written, I genuinely hope Marco reacts to it one day
Imagine when he hears the soundstrack of IS4!
Ye... This aniversary makes me very happy
The event lobby theme is very chill too, comfy even
You should listen to the menu of this event. Probably the best menu song in Arknights.
The Barbenheimer theme. This event is so very barbie.
I haven't played Arknights in a hot minute and joined back right around this event, with the theme and tone of the trailer I was here thinking it was lighthearted and silly event only to be sucker punched in the face with "the feels."

(That said I still have yet to clear SL 8 though, my operator's are very weak against Dolly at the moment lol)
This event are mostly a big game from Dolly the Sovereign of Sheep( a giant pink fluff that love to play on lava bath)
Though the story quit lighthearted, but not with the battle
Imagine get bullied by a bunch of funny sheeps
Imagine lost to a bunch of cute sheep.
Fought demons, monstrosities, strong warriors with otherworldly powers, even god-like beings, yet get beaten by silly pink sheep
Ooh you finally collaborated with Arknights! I was always waiting for it 😆😆
I like the battle theme 2 music in this event more tbh its so funny but so good
WE NEED MORE ARKNIGHTS
Will you be doing an Arknights 2023 livestream like you did for 2022?
Btw theres a day and night version of the event theme
Music is this event is AMAZING, please also check out misty memory!
Love the video! But I wonder when the crimson solitaire arknights would come out? That track that is phantom of the opera insprised.
I'm a simple guy. I see Arknights Content, I liked🥳
Happy 4 anivasary
Yeah because the boss isnt serious. Its a giant pink sheep.
Marcos choices of ark music are always unpreditable. There are a lot other ark songs who are more in line with his profession. But whatever it is its welcome
I cannot help but hear Megalovania layered over THAT part. You know which one. It's literally just missing the double high note at the start, then we'd have the Megalovania leitmotiv
so glad seeing you react to arknights music againts but Im still hoping you react to Texas alter event ost, especially Penance ost
Marco, you should really really react to the new cinematic, Still Here, from league of legends season 2024. The music is amazing but looking back at how you reacted to Kindred's theme it might be more interesting for you to actually see a cinematic where they are in. I'm sure you'll love it.
Also great reaction as always! First time I hear this song and I fucking love it. Really can't stop digging to it!
Granblue Fantasy is another great one for music. Highly recommend it, also because the game itself is very Free to Play friendly, though not necessarily very RUclips Content friendly.
S H E E P
If you're not planning to play the game to see the part in-game, then I'd love for you to at least react to Alan Wake 2's "Herald of Darkness" Music video because it is such a good piece of music, it's like a musical! 😸
If he picks, I clicks
there is another music you need to react --> Arknights "To the Grinning Valley"
I suspect hypergraph is a music studio 😅

Hey, new DMC song just dropped. "Fire Inside" by Casey Edwards and Victor Borba
Pink sheep strikes again
Hey Marco! I have recommendation for you. I think you missed out one battle theme from Genshin which is the Tower of Gestalt Battle Theme. Idk but people barely talk about this battle theme so Can you be able analyse it
what is the song called
Sheepnado Decimates Nomadic City
the song name is at the start! it's "Sheepnado decimates nomadic city" from the latest event
holy shit i thought you guys were joking
The very beginning of the song sounds to me like Everywhere at the end of time and i *dont* like the implications of that
