So the Roche Limit is essentially how close a celestial body has to be to another body before it starts to disintegrate So Fecto Eflilis is attempting to disintegrate both pop star and the forgotten land That’s insane to me
In reality, two planets cannot disintegrate each other via the Roche Limit, they will hit each other first. The Roche limit is typically applied to two bodies where one is much smaller than the other, like a planes vs a moon or a comet.
i love how they somehow found a way to make both "elfilin is evil" theory and "elfilin is pure" theory true through elfilin being helplessly apart of a genocidal alien
Reminds me of a certain episode of batman the animated series, involving Clayface dividing himself like an amoeba, unfortunately, the little girl that resulted didn't have the happy ending Elfilin had, once she was reabsorbed, she was gone.
for a long stretch, Kirby antagonists have had their origins in madness born of an outside source. Magalor was influenced and possessed by the Master crown/zero. Sectonia was driven mad by the dimensional mirror. President Haltman had his mind and memory eroded by constant overuse of Star Dream. Hyness grew bitter in exile and turned to the dark god his order sealed away. Fecto Elfilis is a being that posses his full mental faculties. It's restored power cam from absorbing their previously seperated conscience and empathy. Fecto Elfilis Choses to be evil. Not even Zero had the ability to make that choice.
@@cosmicspacething3474 Yeah Magolor made the choice to put the crown on, but it sort of pulled out his more negative archetypes and transformed him since the crown is more prone to corrupting, like literally half the things in the kirby series haha. Nobody talks about Marx either, who knew full well what he was doing! (I've have a headcanon that Magolor is a delinquent teenager who while being a very talented mage is also prone to rash decisions, lying, and stealing things, which goes hand in hand with the crown pulling those aspects of his personality out and amplifying them.)
And don't forget Drawcia, she was mistreated her whole life, her author didn't liked her, only having her two sisters to comfort, something happened, she's alone and still categorized as "ugly", she somehow manages to become alive cause of the hatred she has been built her entire life, created a new form that wasn't "ugly" and, ironically, converted Pop Star into a bizarre and beautiful painting. And all of that because no one liked her.
let's not let this theme distract us from the fact that people canonically call Kirby *"The Pink Demon"* as stated by Announcer Waddle Dee and is not just a title from smash bros or a name from superstar, *its his actual in-universe title*
Something that makes Fecto Elfilis truly scary is that it really has a righteous motivation for lashing out. It was experimented on, split in two, locked away as it's captors left it to rot. It already arrived on that planet ready to wipe out all life, but now it has a reason. Now it has motivation. Every ounce of cruelty it enacts is now justified in it's eyes.
Nothing captures the Kirby final boss tone shift of "Holy shit am I still playing a Kirby game?" like calling your final boss song "Two Planets Approach The Roche Limit", what a badass name for a song.
Don't let this theme distract you from the fact that 2-player mode is essentially Bandanna Dee's most epic character growth in all Kirby games. He went from a lackey who would try to defeat Kirby into a friend and companion who would stay by his side, no matter how rough things get. He basically watched his fellow Dees get captured and locked in cages and put into labor, was forced to fight his own King (again), had to watch his king sacrifice himself for the sake of the Waddle Dee's survival, and let's not forget the friendship between Eifillin and Bandanna Dee. In response to losing everything, Bandanna Dee used the remaining courage he had and defeated Fecto Eifillis. Bandanna Dee proved to be a versatile asset in Forgotten Land's 2-player Mode, and one of the best characters in this game.
Chaos Efilis opening its wings to reveal its title has so much raw unparalleled energy to it. It’s so fluid and threatening. Edit: I have been informed that it’s wings are actually ears.
I love how the person singing throughout this song is seemingly the same as the voice telling Elfilis' story at the lab! It's especially obvious in it's final form how that voice has haunted it for the 30 years it was trapped, so having the same voice carry into It's final battle is a really cool touch!
it's not for 30 years they were trapped, it's 30 years after Elfilis' invasion that ID-F87, Elfilin, came into existence and weakened Elfilis consequentially. The New World inhabitants used this dormancy to study their spacial warping technology and disappeared to nowheresville for an indeterminate amounts of time while they were trapped.
Chinchilla Sephiroth trying to kill Kirby by crushing him in between two planets, and then getting annihilated by a truck that was using the debris of the planets as a road. I love Kirby
Elfilis wasn't beaten by the usual. No massive sword, no power plant, not Mecha, no Friendship Ex Machina. No, they just got ran over by a truck. Best final hit lmao.
Love the whole "organized chaos" vibe this song has. The erratic yet controlled rhythm especially makes me think of a very elaborate swordfight/dance, which is fitting for Fecto Elfilis and how it moves around.
Organized chaos, controlled chaos if you will. The ultimate life-form. This game really is just what you'd get if you took a copy of Sonic Adventure 2 and threw it into a blender with all 4 modern Kirby games isn't it?
@@hunterst.arnold6646 Alright, let's see... Kirby side: Giant eldrich monsters which want to destroy the universe ✔ Kirby ✔ Cute monsters ✔ Sidekick turns out to be main bad guy ✔ (sorta) Cult ✔ And i can't think of anything else, so.. Sonic A2 side: Giant blue goo thingy which is the "ultimate lifeform" ✔ 3D, unlike most of the other games prior ✔ GOTTA GO FAST ✔ (sorta) Sidekick turns out to be super powerful ✔ Yeah pretty much
Y'know, I was wondering what direction Kirby lore was going to go after unveiling Void Termina, and this game gave us an answer to that. The question? How the Ancients of Halcandra might have gotten their hyper-advanced technology and ability to travel huge distances with ease. The answer? "AND HERE WE ARE."
@@shreddedbagelwabiwabo8342 in truth, we dont know if it is or isnt, as the new world's residente disappeared. They COULD be the qncients (or at least the ancients predescessors) But we dont know
@@shreddedbagelwabiwabo8342 it seems to imply the people of the Forgotten World eventually became the technological half of the Ancients as the "world of dreams" mentioned could very well have been an ancient Pop Star. In addition the Ancients' warp technology (as seen in a few things, but primarily the Lor Starcutter) functions extremely similar to Fecto Elfilis's warp abilities and we know the people of the Forgotten World eventually perfectly replicated that power with technology
I can't find the comment anymore, but someone pointed out something that blew my mind when I read it: "I thought this song felt different from all the other kirby final boss themes until I realized, there's no green greens here"
This song is the most majestic kirby boss fight. Superficially it's close to Moonstruck Blossom, but that song is still very tight, and hurried. Roche Limit is floaty, a waltz, and it really reflects how the fight against Elfilis is like a dance to the death with two deft fighters.
Exactly. It's a tightrope dance with death that takes every turn it can and loops around to take the turns it missed, but instead of using the road it puts on a pair of ice skates and dances around gracefully
@JeanKP14 Two years on, I'm still trying. I'm. STILL. Trying. Goddamn jazz solo coming in out of straight ass nowhere. Thing is unlearnable. I'm convinced that was made up on the spot with no plan whatsoever and they were like "yeah, throw it in." Other than that I know the main tune but my fidelity to the nuance sucks. Sometimes there's 4 things going on at once, especially around high notes, and my mind can only follow one track at a time. No one man could play this correctly, it demands an entire orchestra.
The fact mouthful mode only gets used once in the main fight (not counting the driving sequence at the end), and it's to try and free Elfilin. Something about that moment stirred major emotions in me. I could imagine Kirby yelling "give me my friend back!!!" in that moment, that's what it felt like.
You missed a lot- Also more obvious is timpani, cello, piano and vibraphone. Less obvious: oboe, bassoon (both start at 4:20 and stop quick) clarinet (4:58 … but it’s quiet and brief.) there was a lot of brief bits like this in moonstruck blossom so it’s cool for them to bring that back somewhat
I like how you could read the name of the song literally, as Popstar and New World collide, OR metaphorically, as two cosmic beings approach, until the lesser of them (Elfilis if you win, Kirby if you lose) collapses. (Spoilers for Post-Game below) OR LITERALLY AGAIN because Chaos Elfilis actually turns into floating debris that orbits around their SOUL form, very similar to an *actual planet* being pulled apart.
Something I also recently noticed is Chaos Elfilis' second phase looks like the moon in the background of the Queen Sectonia fight (first phase) which I'm pretty sure is a reference to Kirby's Adventure
Oh god I didn’t even think about that implication for the true form but it makes so much more sense design-wise now, I always wondered “why is the big bad soul orb being orbited by a dozen smaller orbs” and now I get it
Something HAL Labs has been really good at recently is creating A.) Songs that don't really loop all that often and B.) Tie in the the leitmotif of the game. Void Termina and Two Planets Approaching the Roche Limit are incredibly intricate songs that tie into the general theme of the game, typically throwing it into the song as a backing track and having it punctuate the ending of a long journey. Honestly they're amazing.
The way this song uses Welcome to the New World/Running Through the New World is honestly fantastic. The brief sting of it at 5:25 before the singer hits the high note gives me chills every time.
Even ignoring the fact they hardly loop, this game was quite a unique case in dynamic music. There are actually *multiple* transitions between phase 1 and 2, depending on what part of the music is playing as the player gets to the transition. I hope to see much more of this from HAL.
Point B) has been applied since Return to dreamland (for example, it is easily recognizable in CROWNED when compared to The Adventure Begins and the Main menu theme)
HAL has consistently shown a level of love for Kirby that I wish other Nintendo games could receive, and I think one of the greatest places that can be seen is the music for basically all Kirby games. The soundtracks for Kirby games have always been great already and yet they continue to improve and impress me. I have grown up with Kirby and for how deceptively simple it seems I have only grown to love it more as I have aged, which is not something I can say for all intellectual properties
I agree and even still, Moonstruck Blossom is my favorite of the final Kirby boss themes (and that is saying a lot. They are all amazing). I didn't really get the connection to the character. Sectonia always seemed like a randomish villain to me... but the track... it just felt like a masterpiece to me. The way it blended 8 bit chiptune effects with vocal or vocalish samples, piano and strings. It just felt like it was more than the sum of its parts. Don't get me wrong, this one is incredible as well, and Void Termina, and CROWNED and every track for the forms of the Robobot final boss, and earlier Kirby games too. They all deserve all the praise they can get... but to me personally, Moonstruck Blossom is in a league of its own...
This entire finale sequence from the Second round with Dedede to the end was absolutely Phenomenal and unreal. Hell the minute I saw it show pop star I was like:Is that popstar… no way NO WAY! ITS PULLING A MAJORA’s MASK ON US! One of the greatest bosses and a FANTASIC opening to the 3D era of Kirby.
Seriously how does anyone even begin composing a song as complex and as long as this, its so fucking impressive. At times it feels like a clusterfuck of instruments and that in turn makes it seem like it should be a mess, but somehow it sounds beautiful the whole way through and even then you can still hear the Kirby. Its great.
I'll be honest. It's hard to pull off, but with enough experience, it's possible. Once one has an idea of what they want to do, what feeling they want to inspire, and what character/setting/theme they are portraying, it's a matter of finding the right instruments and the rest is a waiting game; this meaning that you just wait on your mind to flow as you build up the melodies, bass, and other accompanying concepts.
Dancing Mad, the final boss theme of Final Fantasy 6, is roughly 17-18 minutes long. I completely agree with you, where does anyone even begin in that process and still come out with a fantastic song?
Its called prog im pretty sure. Alot of final fantasy was influenced from this band called elp. That band is widely considered prog rock. Its a form of music where its often complex and hard to play and takes elements from other genres.
The second phase is sort of a rehash of the first phase but sounding more like a classic Kirby boss theme and less like the boss is walking towards you threateningly with a violin that it just won an interdimensional talent contest with, so it was probably easier to make that.
There are a few things I want to say about this boss. 1) I'm really glad we got a final boss who wasn't just "Wow, I'm huge, FEAR ME!" What I mean is that we had a character whose power was on full display and he wasn't some massive creature. We can have powerful bosses without making them ginormous. 2) This boss is the first time in a while where Kirby beat the final boss without any sort of final power-up or assistance (not counting the truck, which I consider to be a finisher sequence more than anything). Listing every final boss this far... _King Dedede: Beat on his own_ Nightmare: Star Rod Dark Matter Blade: Rainbow Sword _Marx: Beat on his own_ Zero: Love Love Stick Zero Two: Ribbon _Dark Mind: Galaxia (optional)_ _Dark Nebula: Triple Star (optional)_ _Magolor: Super Copy Abilities*_ * Magolor came back for a stronger phase 2, so Kirby technically won without power ups. Queen Sectonia: Hypernova Star Dream: Halberd Void Termina: Star Allies Sparkler _Fecto Elfilis: Beat on his own_ 3) For anyone curious on how this track works in terms of transitioning from Phase 1 to Phase 2, it works like this: Phase 1 lasts until 3:40, at which it will loop if the player hasn't reached Phase 2 yet. Should the player end Phase 1 at a different point, the track will use 1 of 14 different transitions (Jesus Christ) in order to smoothly switch over to 4:01. So in other words... 0:00 - 3:40 = Phase 1 3:40 - 4:01 = Transition 4:01 onwards = Phase 2
Fun fact! Elfilis’s meteor attack is called “The Fermi Paradox’s Answer." in the game files. There’s a reason there are no aliens. Fecto Elfilis killed them all. Edit: My source is that i made it the frick up Edit 2: Thx for likes Edit 3: Don'cha just hate it when people edit their comments thanking for the likes?
That's a cool fact. Also not only did Fecto Elfilis kill all the aliens, but their superior form: Chaos Elfilis killed every ounce of self confidence I had.
@@AverageTSMI don’t blame you! Chaos Elfilis is beautiful and angelic, but its intro has it give one heck of an angry death glare! Oh, and those lasers
Holy freak that’s metal, and also kinda messed up. Edit: omg I just realized that to the waddle dees and other inhabitants of popstar, we are aliens. *We are, in Kirby, actually freaking extinct because of fecto elfilis.*
Kirby's transition to 3D was perfect. My theory is that Hal waited until technology was ready for 3D Kirby. Edit: Yeah I know that HAL tried it long ago but they thought "Kirby's way too round, you can't tell where he is facing." which is not really an excuse because Kirby has BIG. STUBBY arms. And his feet are ovals.
@@sofaris576 usually songs are just named "vs. this boss". They only recently named their songs separately, and they're already going hard on the naming
I love this so much, I always wanted a final boss to not just incite fear, intensity or sadness but also a sense of wonder! this actually has a few segments that make it feel like you're looking at something amazing rather than something to be feared of. is it me or some parts of Battle of Blizzard Bridge is in this
Legitimately, there were a few points in the boss fight where I took damage from something easily avoidable because I was completely mesmerized by the visuals and music.
4:02 I loooove this bit leading up to the second phase. It lets you know that they’re about to unleash absolute hell on you in order to win. I love this final boss so fucking much
I've always wondered why this fight feels so natural for a Kirby climax, despite being the most over the top set piece in the series. But I think I've got it now Kirby's not fighting for the fate of the world. They're just fighting for their friend back. Like they always have.
I love how the first minute of the song builds up with the opera singers and orchestra and then BAM TOTAL CHAOS Easily Top 3 favorite final boss themes
Prior to this game, I held the OSTs of Triple Delux and Planet Robobot as my top favorites of the franchise, with the boss theme for Star Dream and Queen Sectonia as the first and second best of boss themes respectably. Then, along came this game and casually dethroned those two as the best OST and boss theme.
The Roche Limit is the distance two celestial bodies can be apart before they tear each other apart with their gravity [Edit: Man it's fun to give an off handed comment and start a war in the comments] [And yes I know my definition is slightly off] [Damn it's a fucking soap opera down there] [I would like to say that I'm the first person to google this and give the definition]
@@Freya.1997 1. Wow that's the second time I've eeen you in this soundtrack spitting out bad takes. 2. Something doesn't need to be named exactly the term in order to be named after it. Martin Luther King Jr Street is still named after him despite having street in the name
Fittingly enough for this game's theme of exploring a new world, the quality of this song genuinely feels otherworldly Looking back on the Fecto Elfilis fight, the way that 4:12 syncs up perfectly with their giant meteor attack is such a sick detail That section in general is also just incredible at setting the mood, especially with Chaos Elfilis. Another huge highlight of this song for me is 2:07, I absolutely adore how groovy it is, along with the breakdown at 2:32, and the choir at 2:43 is gorgeous At the end of the day, basically everything about this song is phenomenal (Although I do enjoy VS. Star Dream more), I don't know how Hirokazu Ando manages to consistently create these musical masterpieces
I love how most of the song is grandiose and epic, and then at 2:07, the song just decides screw it and takes a break to enjoy some smooth jazz, and then goes right back to being grandiose and epic afterward. It feels so random and I love it.
@@Victini7472 actually! Stardream most likely can and was trying to bring susie back during the countdown And the errors were because susie was already back
This boss has quickly become one of my favorites in the series, it encapsulates everything the previous four final battles got right: Void's imposing and sweeping Humanoid and Winged attacks, as well as basically being a parallel to Chaos Elfilis's final form The feeling of raw power and control emanating from Star Dream's fight, both even using meteors to attack The elegance and beauty of Sectonia followed by unhinged chaos in the final phase The otherworldly background and sorrowful undertones of Magolor Soul Elfilis is imposing in strength and their attacks are grandiose and terrifying. Yet, they move with elegance, as if performing a dance, only for all hell to break loose as the next phase is gone, and subtlety is replaced with arena-clearing attacks, meteors, and lasers. As the harrowing vocals hit, you remember your friend that was consumed by the overwhelming power. And maybe, unlike past bouts, you can still save him. Great fight. However I'm afraid everything I stated doesn't matter as there is no Kirby's Triumphant Return or Green Greens leitmotif thus making it terrible
Jokes on you, in the context of forgotten land not being anywhere near Planet Popstar until the very end in which it uses the Invincible Candy leitmotif, it makes perfect sense, making the fight EVEN BETTER!
It makes sense tho! We are not in pop star anymore. U can hear the game's leitmotif (the theme of the forgotten land basically, this new world) in this song :)
In forgotten land it says: "species reborn out of chaos" In star allies we learned that whether positive or negative energy is gathered, Void will rebirth itself in a physical manifistation of that emotion. I personally like to think that Elfilis is reborn out of so much negative energy that only chaos can pursue thats also why Elfilis is so evil in nature
Hi. This song is written in a 4:3 polyrhythm. Listen especially at the beginning-you can hear it. If you’re unfamiliar with polyrhythms, listen for the beats dividing each measure into both thirds and quarters (not twelfths, thirds and quarters of the same period of time). It’s kinda awesome.
the part at 0:21 is literally *heavenly*, and the fact that it kicks in just a moment after the boss spreads its wings far and reveals its subtitle only adds to it. this being is the ultimate life form, and though that might something to fear, it's just as much something to be in awe of. that whole moment feels like the game giving you a moment to just marvel in the sight of a foe like this before you actually have to fight it additionally, that feeling of awe persists as the theme continues and develops, and it might make fecto elfilis my favorite kirby final boss. it's powerful, but not some raging beast, and even as it gets desperate, it never seems to lose that elegance. from its first breath to its last, it remains composed and precise with its power
It may have just been me, but I swear when you fight Elfilis, that as soon as you actually gain control of Kirby in the fight, Elfilis just...doesn't move. It only lasts about a second, but that second of time with it backed against the sunset horizon is just enough, as if saying "bask in the presence of this truly magnificent creature" before throwing you into the fray with it.
-You make your way through a fiery lab -You fight a king -You go deeper in the lab and fight animal abominations -Your best friend becomes the ultimate life form This was just Undertale all along
"In celestial mechanics, the Roche limit, also called Roche radius, is the distance from a celestial body within which a second celestial body, held together only by its own force of gravity, will disintegrate because the first body's tidal forces exceed the second body's self-gravitation."
This final boss really unleashed his inner Queen Sectonia. I absolutely love this final boss it felt like the past 3 games rolled into one battle. The surrounding feeling like a planet robobot setting, the music and moveset feeling like Sectonia, and the stakes feeling like the same in Star Allies it felt incredibly awesome the whole way through.
@@tracemacmillan9718 I stand by that. They dont reuse a final boss or have the same exact one in a later game. Instead they have a new one and incorporate past moves or little remixed moments in the song. For the most part they whip up something new and exciting which is why this is my favorite franchise! 💖
this is just my personal opinion but i think this is the best final boss song in kirby now. i had to specifically listen to star conquering traveler, the star dream phases, and the sectonia phases again to be sure but yeah. this is my favorite final kirby boss music. it hits my ears and brain just right, i love it. this game is Also my new favorite kirby game in general. kumazaki said in an interview released before the game came out that forgotten land is a "masterpiece" and, uh, i think he's 100% correct.
I honestly agree, this game takes the best from all of the previous modern kirby games, and does every single thing it does right. Literally every level in this game is memorable, and honestly the one thing I wish was different about it is that it was like a world longer. I've seen people complain about the difficulty but (IMO) the whole focus of kirby is on traversing the levels and solving puzzles. Kirby is also an amazing game for self imposed difficulty, I beat the true arena while only using 3 tomatoes and it was insanely rewarding
@@ScripFing of Course people are complaining about the difficulty lolll.... at this point if people are gonna complain about difficulty in a... Kirby game.... they should either find something else to play or simply stop basing a game's worth on its difficulty x'dd i honestly think that the challenge wild mode brings is good, especially with the post game stuff. anyway sorry to complain to you about that pet peeve of mine!! this game truly is fantastic and i'm very excited for what HAL will do next with kirby, especially if they continue with this 3d platformer route.
@@icicledream EXACTLY. like this game is already incredible and I don't have a single issue with it, other than like maybe the target time challenges for the treasure roads not being needed for 100% completion lmao
It is amazing, but I have some serious nostalgia for the 3DS games. It's at least up there, but I think I still prefer Star Dream's themes, as Planet Robobot determined a lot of my musical tastes, like how I generally prefer electronic instruments. But... well, they wouldn't fit as the lead here.
@@ScripFing the ui popups that you can't skip quickly are annoying And finding specific treasure roads can be an issue if you forget where it is And I guess the only other issue with this game is *there isn't enough of it and I want more*
I was really wondering how they'd do the finale after just beating up monkeys and a bunch of furries and how it would all end up fighting some divine world ender shit They delivered
That has always been the case for Kirby in general. But I guess this was especially true in this game, as it goes from all cute to all dark on a matter of a 1-min elevator ride. Little bit sad Elfilin was not more than just a mere side-character you barely even see outside the hub.
@@genyakozlov1316 Xenoblade 3 was and SHOULD have won best OST, it blew the competition out of the water so hard this year that they all were launched into the atmosphere..... ...and yet it didn't. So, of course that award has nothing to do with real objective rating and critics, just an overly glorified popularity award and advertisement show
Had the weirdest dream last night So in the dream, I was back in middle school, but it was post-KatFL's release and I was a band kid instead of a choir kid, I played the flute. And during the dream, when the band teacher was giving us our sheet music for what we were learning to play... it was THIS TRACK.
Cool, in my dream I was going through a cave-like area that kinda reminds me of the Pandora series on VRChat, but then I just suddenly heard Ardyn speaking. Like- he wasn't physically there, but I heard his voice and KNEW it was him because I know what he sounds like. (He's been invading my dreams for the past two months, SEND HELP-)
Fun fact: As soon as the buffs shop opened up, I accidently bought a double health bar from it. So I went through half the game with the double health bar, and thank god I did, cuz this fight was the first time I needed it. After the biological abomination I like to call the hallway monster, this is a much needed musical and gameplay break. Love this boss, and love this song.
this is one of the best songs in the whole series Like plenty of games have ambient choirs and stuff, but this game makes it MEMORABLE Its ambient but still melodic and powerful and sticks in your head
It’s awesome to me how this boss and it’s lore are pretty much straight out of a mush of Dark Souls and Final Fantasy, and yet it fits perfectly still in Kirby’s world
I don’t know what it is about this song in particular that just puts me in a writing mood. I just focus so much better when I listen to this. This song is single-handedly responsible for me having a passing grade in my writing class.
this fecto forgo entity is a very brand new final boss. i mean. nobody has remark that he has no the regular one eye design of the previous greater scope villains!!!
Oh, come now, magalor doesn’t-… well surely sectonia-… well of course the mother computer star dream couldn’t… well how about void termina? Last I checked it… hmm. Well yin yarn… dark crafter… king d mind…. Huh.
THIS. The design, plus the complete lack of green greens in this ost - in almost every other track as well, actually - does a great job at emphasizing that this 'Elfilis' is completely unrelated to any previous boss, yet still a force of nature by itself!
Makes sense, although given that Fecto in any form is a multidimensional being, it makes sense. The forgotten lands may not have ever heard of dark matter to begin with
Fun Fact!: The Roche limit is when a planet gets so close that the bigger planet tears it apart, in this case when Fecto Elfilis is sending planet popstar to crash into the forgotten land, they are are about to Tear each other apart hence the name "Two Planets Approach the Roche limit"
One of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard… haha, the context of the game makes this better too. You’re fighting an angel of some sort, or at least that’s what the song is saying… in-game, it’s not really an angel, but the song makes it feel like it is.
This song honestly brings me to tears with emotion sometimes. The battle itself feels like a multilayered dance, each movement loaded with meaning, all culminating as Kirby faces a being showing the power of at least a minor deity. Everything has so much beauty, especially the raw passion shown through Elfilis' attacks
I was expecting a more "down to Earth" final boss since you can't really top Void, but nope: we end up fighting Archangel Gabriel's Fursona... And I wouldn't have it any other way.
I used crystal needle after I died like three times it really helped with all the stars it leaves but yeah this boss is still hard as heck even with that.
I love the increased use of choir voices in the game’s climactic moments, it makes everything that much more dramatic awesome. And of course the song itself is a perfect mix of intense, dramatic, urgent, and a twinge of hopeful, throwing in the game’s main motif in a way that makes it feel like the true, final challenge. Kirby games always have the best climaxes, and it’s usually the best part about the more recent entries.
The Kirby (and general gaming) finales all have one or more of three things 1: you go to space 2: you fight a god or some other overwhelmingly powerful force 3:the music is either choir-heavy or straight up metal
@@MrSailing101 I think this man right here is deaf. Welcome to the New World is spammed everywhere in this game's music, almost as prevalent as Green Greens is in past Kirby music. This sequence of 6 bass notes, on the other hand occurs twice, in this and in Blizzard Bridge.
@@TheRealFraston This game basically uses both Running Through the New World and Welcome to the New World themes as the ‘main’ throughout this game simliar to what it was done in Kirby Planet Robobot as well
This. This right here is my personal favorite final boss in any video game. The music, the build-up, the difficulty, the final attack, This feels like something right out of platnum games.
I unfathomably adore when a track can portray the themes of a duel so vividly. As though the track itself can be consumed by itself and still deliver the whole story. Hearing the instrumentals ramp up as the song goes on leading to that bombastic final phase where Elfilis’ oppressive operatic instrumentals clash with Kirby’s iconic woodwinds, horns and guitar truly makes these two worlds preparing to collide hit so much harder.
Literally until the very end, the guitar pushing its way back in over the choir like it’s struggling but still there right before the loop hits is so good, damn dude…
I don't mean to sound nitpicky, but I revisited the fight to see how exactly the music transitions. I watched the fight on RUclips and then fought him myself just to be sure. The transition is actually at 3:51. Edit: Okay, so I may have been wrong. This song has so many transitions in it that I can't make sense of what plays when. Edit 2: Okay, I actually figured it out; I was partially right. The way it works is this: Phase 1 lasts until 3:40, at which it will loop if the player hasn't reached Phase 2 yet. Should the player end Phase 1 at a different point, the track will use 1 of 14 different transitions (Jesus Christ) in order to smoothly switch over to 4:01. So in other words... 0:00 - 3:40 = Phase 1 3:40 - 4:01 = Transition 4:01 onwards = Phase 2

So the Roche Limit is essentially how close a celestial body has to be to another body before it starts to disintegrate
So Fecto Eflilis is attempting to disintegrate both pop star and the forgotten land
That’s insane to me
In reality, two planets cannot disintegrate each other via the Roche Limit, they will hit each other first. The Roche limit is typically applied to two bodies where one is much smaller than the other, like a planes vs a moon or a comet.

Elefilin is the pure part of evil
Reminds me of a certain episode of batman the animated series, involving Clayface dividing himself like an amoeba, unfortunately, the little girl that resulted didn't have the happy ending Elfilin had, once she was reabsorbed, she was gone.
@@monitorlizardkid8253Does anakin from star wars count?
@@Determination709 No idea.
what do you mean?
for a long stretch, Kirby antagonists have had their origins in madness born of an outside source.
Magalor was influenced and possessed by the Master crown/zero.
Sectonia was driven mad by the dimensional mirror.
President Haltman had his mind and memory eroded by constant overuse of Star Dream.
Hyness grew bitter in exile and turned to the dark god his order sealed away.
Fecto Elfilis is a being that posses his full mental faculties. It's restored power cam from absorbing their previously seperated conscience and empathy. Fecto Elfilis Choses to be evil. Not even Zero had the ability to make that choice.
Cept Marx tho, little bastard knew what he was doing all along
Technically Magolor wasn’t influenced by the crown until he put it on. It was his choice to proceed.
@@cosmicspacething3474 Yeah Magolor made the choice to put the crown on, but it sort of pulled out his more negative archetypes and transformed him since the crown is more prone to corrupting, like literally half the things in the kirby series haha. Nobody talks about Marx either, who knew full well what he was doing!
(I've have a headcanon that Magolor is a delinquent teenager who while being a very talented mage is also prone to rash decisions, lying, and stealing things, which goes hand in hand with the crown pulling those aspects of his personality out and amplifying them.)
And don't forget Drawcia, she was mistreated her whole life, her author didn't liked her, only having her two sisters to comfort, something happened, she's alone and still categorized as "ugly", she somehow manages to become alive cause of the hatred she has been built her entire life, created a new form that wasn't "ugly" and, ironically, converted Pop Star into a bizarre and beautiful painting. And all of that because no one liked her.
Then there's Marx who was just a jerk that wanted world domination for the hell of it
This boss theme hits like a truck.
nice
GAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHh
I see what you did there
You are a funny lad
I get it.
I ain’t laughing, but I get it.
let's not let this theme distract us from the fact that people canonically call Kirby *"The Pink Demon"* as stated by Announcer Waddle Dee and is not just a title from smash bros or a name from superstar, *its his actual in-universe title*
That’s been a thing since at least Super Star Ultra
They aren’t wrong.
It's a reference to Smash. On the Punch-Out stage, Kirby's title is "The Pink Demon".
@@winterracat which in turn is referencing Kirby Triple Deluxe's pause screen description for the true arena (I think it was Triple deluxe)
He really is though
Something that makes Fecto Elfilis truly scary is that it really has a righteous motivation for lashing out.
It was experimented on, split in two, locked away as it's captors left it to rot.
It already arrived on that planet ready to wipe out all life, but now it has a reason. Now it has motivation. Every ounce of cruelty it enacts is now justified in it's eyes.

Don't let this theme distract you from the fact that 2-player mode is essentially Bandanna Dee's most epic character growth in all Kirby games. He went from a lackey who would try to defeat Kirby into a friend and companion who would stay by his side, no matter how rough things get. He basically watched his fellow Dees get captured and locked in cages and put into labor, was forced to fight his own King (again), had to watch his king sacrifice himself for the sake of the Waddle Dee's survival, and let's not forget the friendship between Eifillin and Bandanna Dee. In response to losing everything, Bandanna Dee used the remaining courage he had and defeated Fecto Eifillis. Bandanna Dee proved to be a versatile asset in Forgotten Land's 2-player Mode, and one of the best characters in this game.
As someone who almost always played 2-player co-op with my sister, I'm really happy to see that Bandana Dee got the credit that he deserves
Cherish Return to Dreamland for making him debut in need for a 4th playable character
Also Meta Knight tanked mind control.
Dedede never sacrificed himself, bandana dee knew those beast pack lackeys never stood a chance against a rival of KIRBY.
@@minecrafter3448 Now that I think about it, being a rival of KIRBY of all things is pretty insane Lol

@@jakethedog1483 bruh
Also the shadow from the sun in the background makes it SO much cooler. The vibe this fight had was impeccable.
I love how the person singing throughout this song is seemingly the same as the voice telling Elfilis' story at the lab! It's especially obvious in it's final form how that voice has haunted it for the 30 years it was trapped, so having the same voice carry into It's final battle is a really cool touch!
Oh, you're right! I've always thought it was Neichel lol
it's not for 30 years they were trapped, it's 30 years after Elfilis' invasion that ID-F87, Elfilin, came into existence and weakened Elfilis consequentially. The New World inhabitants used this dormancy to study their spacial warping technology and disappeared to nowheresville for an indeterminate amounts of time while they were trapped.
@@collateralmentaldamage tbh I don't remember exactly what happened anymore lol. All I know is that my original comment was what I thought at the time

Organized chaos, controlled chaos if you will. The ultimate life-form. This game really is just what you'd get if you took a copy of Sonic Adventure 2 and threw it into a blender with all 4 modern Kirby games isn't it?

Y'know, I was wondering what direction Kirby lore was going to go after unveiling Void Termina, and this game gave us an answer to that.
The question? How the Ancients of Halcandra might have gotten their hyper-advanced technology and ability to travel huge distances with ease.
The answer? "AND HERE WE ARE."
The forgotten land was not the ancients
@@shreddedbagelwabiwabo8342 in truth, we dont know if it is or isnt, as the new world's residente disappeared.

But we dont know
@@shreddedbagelwabiwabo8342 it seems to imply the people of the Forgotten World eventually became the technological half of the Ancients as the "world of dreams" mentioned could very well have been an ancient Pop Star. In addition the Ancients' warp technology (as seen in a few things, but primarily the Lor Starcutter) functions extremely similar to Fecto Elfilis's warp abilities and we know the people of the Forgotten World eventually perfectly replicated that power with technology
@@shreddedbagelwabiwabo8342 yet the warp of Lor Starcutter, and Stsr Dream match the stsr shaped portals opened by Elfilis
When you say here we are
My mind: undertale true lab
I can't find the comment anymore, but someone pointed out something that blew my mind when I read it:
"I thought this song felt different from all the other kirby final boss themes until I realized, there's no green greens here"
There is actually Green Greens I believe in the second phase, very tiny snipets, like a guitar riff around 5:12.
It appears very subtle though
NO WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY THAT'S TRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
there's no Green Greens, because we're not in Kirby's world this time. instead, we have Welcome to New World. Elfilin's Green Greens.
Yeah this is one of the only games in the ost where Green Greens is not there, I think exactly one song has it and that’s all.
Were not in dreamland anymore lads
This song is the most majestic kirby boss fight. Superficially it's close to Moonstruck Blossom, but that song is still very tight, and hurried. Roche Limit is floaty, a waltz, and it really reflects how the fight against Elfilis is like a dance to the death with two deft fighters.
It's also far more complex. Have you tried humming out this whole song? It's VERY hard to memorize
Exactly. It's a tightrope dance with death that takes every turn it can and loops around to take the turns it missed, but instead of using the road it puts on a pair of ice skates and dances around gracefully
Hm I didn’t even notice it’s in 3 until you pointed it out but that definitely does add to the urgent feeling
The drums remind me of Void Termina's Core and Soul themes
@JeanKP14 Two years on, I'm still trying. I'm. STILL. Trying. Goddamn jazz solo coming in out of straight ass nowhere. Thing is unlearnable. I'm convinced that was made up on the spot with no plan whatsoever and they were like "yeah, throw it in." Other than that I know the main tune but my fidelity to the nuance sucks. Sometimes there's 4 things going on at once, especially around high notes, and my mind can only follow one track at a time. No one man could play this correctly, it demands an entire orchestra.
The fact mouthful mode only gets used once in the main fight (not counting the driving sequence at the end), and it's to try and free Elfilin. Something about that moment stirred major emotions in me. I could imagine Kirby yelling "give me my friend back!!!" in that moment, that's what it felt like.
More like "Giffme my fmriemmd bamck!"

@@LightlessLunala Oh damn! I didn’t even realize there were so many. I’m not a music expert so I only know the basics, and the basics are pretty cool!
"The only thing this song is missing is electric guitar." ~man who's about to be clipped on youtube
Jesse’s reaction was great
I like how you could read the name of the song literally, as Popstar and New World collide,
OR metaphorically, as two cosmic beings approach, until the lesser of them (Elfilis if you win, Kirby if you lose) collapses.
(Spoilers for Post-Game below)
OR LITERALLY AGAIN because Chaos Elfilis actually turns into floating debris that orbits around their SOUL form, very similar to an *actual planet* being pulled apart.
Something I also recently noticed is Chaos Elfilis' second phase looks like the moon in the background of the Queen Sectonia fight (first phase) which I'm pretty sure is a reference to Kirby's Adventure
Oh god I didn’t even think about that implication for the true form but it makes so much more sense design-wise now, I always wondered “why is the big bad soul orb being orbited by a dozen smaller orbs” and now I get it
That second battle took me some time to remember the attack patterns. I died at least 4-5 times from failing miserably. 😭😭
Something HAL Labs has been really good at recently is creating A.) Songs that don't really loop all that often and B.) Tie in the the leitmotif of the game. Void Termina and Two Planets Approaching the Roche Limit are incredibly intricate songs that tie into the general theme of the game, typically throwing it into the song as a backing track and having it punctuate the ending of a long journey. Honestly they're amazing.
The way this song uses Welcome to the New World/Running Through the New World is honestly fantastic. The brief sting of it at 5:25 before the singer hits the high note gives me chills every time.
Even ignoring the fact they hardly loop, this game was quite a unique case in dynamic music. There are actually *multiple* transitions between phase 1 and 2, depending on what part of the music is playing as the player gets to the transition. I hope to see much more of this from HAL.
Point B) has been applied since Return to dreamland (for example, it is easily recognizable in CROWNED when compared to The Adventure Begins and the Main menu theme)
HAL has consistently shown a level of love for Kirby that I wish other Nintendo games could receive, and I think one of the greatest places that can be seen is the music for basically all Kirby games. The soundtracks for Kirby games have always been great already and yet they continue to improve and impress me. I have grown up with Kirby and for how deceptively simple it seems I have only grown to love it more as I have aged, which is not something I can say for all intellectual properties
I agree and even still, Moonstruck Blossom is my favorite of the final Kirby boss themes (and that is saying a lot. They are all amazing). I didn't really get the connection to the character. Sectonia always seemed like a randomish villain to me... but the track... it just felt like a masterpiece to me. The way it blended 8 bit chiptune effects with vocal or vocalish samples, piano and strings. It just felt like it was more than the sum of its parts. Don't get me wrong, this one is incredible as well, and Void Termina, and CROWNED and every track for the forms of the Robobot final boss, and earlier Kirby games too. They all deserve all the praise they can get... but to me personally, Moonstruck Blossom is in a league of its own...
This entire finale sequence from the Second round with Dedede to the end was absolutely Phenomenal and unreal. Hell the minute I saw it show pop star I was like:Is that popstar… no way NO WAY! ITS PULLING A MAJORA’s MASK ON US!
One of the greatest bosses and a FANTASIC opening to the 3D era of Kirby.
A Majora's Mask? Majora was gonna crash the moon on you, Fecto Elfilis was gonna crash A WHOLE PLANET THROUGH A WARP PORTAL
@@NightmareZerogbs Ok good point. But it was the first thing that popped into my head
possible era
I immediately thought of Majora’s mask too lol
First Kirby, now Splatoon. When you hear English in a game with no real spoken language, you know shit's about to get real
Seriously how does anyone even begin composing a song as complex and as long as this, its so fucking impressive. At times it feels like a clusterfuck of instruments and that in turn makes it seem like it should be a mess, but somehow it sounds beautiful the whole way through and even then you can still hear the Kirby. Its great.
I'll be honest. It's hard to pull off, but with enough experience, it's possible. Once one has an idea of what they want to do, what feeling they want to inspire, and what character/setting/theme they are portraying, it's a matter of finding the right instruments and the rest is a waiting game; this meaning that you just wait on your mind to flow as you build up the melodies, bass, and other accompanying concepts.
Dancing Mad, the final boss theme of Final Fantasy 6, is roughly 17-18 minutes long. I completely agree with you, where does anyone even begin in that process and still come out with a fantastic song?
Its called prog im pretty sure. Alot of final fantasy was influenced from this band called elp. That band is widely considered prog rock. Its a form of music where its often complex and hard to play and takes elements from other genres.
The second phase is sort of a rehash of the first phase but sounding more like a classic Kirby boss theme and less like the boss is walking towards you threateningly with a violin that it just won an interdimensional talent contest with, so it was probably easier to make that.

Facts.
There are a few things I want to say about this boss.
1) I'm really glad we got a final boss who wasn't just "Wow, I'm huge, FEAR ME!" What I mean is that we had a character whose power was on full display and he wasn't some massive creature. We can have powerful bosses without making them ginormous.
2) This boss is the first time in a while where Kirby beat the final boss without any sort of final power-up or assistance (not counting the truck, which I consider to be a finisher sequence more than anything). Listing every final boss this far...
_King Dedede: Beat on his own_
Nightmare: Star Rod
Dark Matter Blade: Rainbow Sword
_Marx: Beat on his own_
Zero: Love Love Stick
Zero Two: Ribbon
_Dark Mind: Galaxia (optional)_
_Dark Nebula: Triple Star (optional)_
_Magolor: Super Copy Abilities*_
* Magolor came back for a stronger phase 2, so Kirby technically won without power ups.
Queen Sectonia: Hypernova
Star Dream: Halberd
Void Termina: Star Allies Sparkler
_Fecto Elfilis: Beat on his own_
3) For anyone curious on how this track works in terms of transitioning from Phase 1 to Phase 2, it works like this:
Phase 1 lasts until 3:40, at which it will loop if the player hasn't reached Phase 2 yet. Should the player end Phase 1 at a different point, the track will use 1 of 14 different transitions (Jesus Christ) in order to smoothly switch over to 4:01. So in other words...
0:00 - 3:40 = Phase 1
3:40 - 4:01 = Transition
4:01 onwards = Phase 2
Yin Yarn: Tankbot
Necrodeus: Kirby’s clones
Dark Crafter: Rocket form
I think more accurately the ribbon, was the crystal blaster
@@gamegod4977 I count Necrodeus as him beating it on his own remember each of those kirbys were just a part of his body being split into 10 pieces
@@lightyoshiman That's true, especially considering Kirby was significantly weaker than normal being split apart

Edit: omg I just realized that to the waddle dees and other inhabitants of popstar, we are aliens. *We are, in Kirby, actually freaking extinct because of fecto elfilis.*
Kirby's transition to 3D was perfect. My theory is that Hal waited until technology was ready for 3D Kirby.
Edit: Yeah I know that HAL tried it long ago but they thought "Kirby's way too round, you can't tell where he is facing." which is not really an excuse because Kirby has BIG. STUBBY arms. And his feet are ovals.
Hopefully the framerate will be better next time though
They'd been trying, but kept running into certain problems like "Kirby's round, it's tough to tell what way he's facing".

Prior to this game, I held the OSTs of Triple Delux and Planet Robobot as my top favorites of the franchise, with the boss theme for Star Dream and Queen Sectonia as the first and second best of boss themes respectably. Then, along came this game and casually dethroned those two as the best OST and boss theme.

Fittingly enough for this game's theme of exploring a new world, the quality of this song genuinely feels otherworldly
Looking back on the Fecto Elfilis fight, the way that 4:12 syncs up perfectly with their giant meteor attack is such a sick detail
That section in general is also just incredible at setting the mood, especially with Chaos Elfilis. Another huge highlight of this song for me is 2:07, I absolutely adore how groovy it is, along with the breakdown at 2:32, and the choir at 2:43 is gorgeous
At the end of the day, basically everything about this song is phenomenal (Although I do enjoy VS. Star Dream more), I don't know how Hirokazu Ando manages to consistently create these musical masterpieces
I love this part
you like robogod more than god?!
@@josephkashompa2450 can fecto elfilis grant wishes? (yes i know star dream can't, but nova can, and star dreamis basically a nova)
I love how most of the song is grandiose and epic, and then at 2:07, the song just decides screw it and takes a break to enjoy some smooth jazz, and then goes right back to being grandiose and epic afterward. It feels so random and I love it.
@@Victini7472 actually!
Stardream most likely can and was trying to bring susie back during the countdown
And the errors were because susie was already back
This boss has quickly become one of my favorites in the series, it encapsulates everything the previous four final battles got right:
Void's imposing and sweeping Humanoid and Winged attacks, as well as basically being a parallel to Chaos Elfilis's final form
The feeling of raw power and control emanating from Star Dream's fight, both even using meteors to attack
The elegance and beauty of Sectonia followed by unhinged chaos in the final phase
The otherworldly background and sorrowful undertones of Magolor Soul
Elfilis is imposing in strength and their attacks are grandiose and terrifying. Yet, they move with elegance, as if performing a dance, only for all hell to break loose as the next phase is gone, and subtlety is replaced with arena-clearing attacks, meteors, and lasers. As the harrowing vocals hit, you remember your friend that was consumed by the overwhelming power. And maybe, unlike past bouts, you can still save him.
Great fight. However I'm afraid everything I stated doesn't matter as there is no Kirby's Triumphant Return or Green Greens leitmotif
thus making it terrible
What will I ever do without my daily dose of nostalgia!
Jokes on you, in the context of forgotten land not being anywhere near Planet Popstar until the very end in which it uses the Invincible Candy leitmotif, it makes perfect sense, making the fight EVEN BETTER!
@@NovelteaJ1228 Good point!
It makes sense tho! We are not in pop star anymore. U can hear the game's leitmotif (the theme of the forgotten land basically, this new world) in this song :)
In forgotten land it says: "species reborn out of chaos"
In star allies we learned that whether positive or negative energy is gathered, Void will rebirth itself in a physical manifistation of that emotion.
I personally like to think that Elfilis is reborn out of so much negative energy that only chaos can pursue thats also why Elfilis is so evil in nature
Hi. This song is written in a 4:3 polyrhythm. Listen especially at the beginning-you can hear it. If you’re unfamiliar with polyrhythms, listen for the beats dividing each measure into both thirds and quarters (not twelfths, thirds and quarters of the same period of time). It’s kinda awesome.
the part at 0:21 is literally *heavenly*, and the fact that it kicks in just a moment after the boss spreads its wings far and reveals its subtitle only adds to it. this being is the ultimate life form, and though that might something to fear, it's just as much something to be in awe of. that whole moment feels like the game giving you a moment to just marvel in the sight of a foe like this before you actually have to fight it
additionally, that feeling of awe persists as the theme continues and develops, and it might make fecto elfilis my favorite kirby final boss. it's powerful, but not some raging beast, and even as it gets desperate, it never seems to lose that elegance. from its first breath to its last, it remains composed and precise with its power
I haven't played forgotten land, but I've seen the final boss fight, and I can agree that is not wrong.
It may have just been me, but I swear when you fight Elfilis, that as soon as you actually gain control of Kirby in the fight, Elfilis just...doesn't move. It only lasts about a second, but that second of time with it backed against the sunset horizon is just enough, as if saying "bask in the presence of this truly magnificent creature" before throwing you into the fray with it.
-You make your way through a fiery lab
-You fight a king
-You go deeper in the lab and fight animal abominations
-Your best friend becomes the ultimate life form
This was just Undertale all along
Yes but unlike Kirby and the forgotten land Undertale is a great game.
While Kirby and the forgotten land is one,if not the best game ever made.
@@Paradoxe_0 had us in the first half ngl
the true lab's theme is named "here we are" on the official OST too, food for thought
also Chaos Elfilis has an attack nearly identical to Sans gaster blaster attacks
@@irmatheshepherd2325 true its just with the 3d and almost square arena that's what i thought of when he used that attack
"In celestial mechanics, the Roche limit, also called Roche radius, is the distance from a celestial body within which a second celestial body, held together only by its own force of gravity, will disintegrate because the first body's tidal forces exceed the second body's self-gravitation."
This final boss really unleashed his inner Queen Sectonia. I absolutely love this final boss it felt like the past 3 games rolled into one battle. The surrounding feeling like a planet robobot setting, the music and moveset feeling like Sectonia, and the stakes feeling like the same in Star Allies it felt incredibly awesome the whole way through.
If there’s one thing modern Kirby games does in absolute spades beyond the soundtrack, it’s got to be the final bosses
@@tracemacmillan9718 I stand by that. They dont reuse a final boss or have the same exact one in a later game. Instead they have a new one and incorporate past moves or little remixed moments in the song. For the most part they whip up something new and exciting which is why this is my favorite franchise! 💖
yeah Elfilis was much more on the "Divine Entity" side of kirby as opposed to the "eldritch horror"
@@averypatrick5279 Yeah, Fecto Elfilis is more divine than unsettling.
Fecto Forgo on the other hand…
Star allies felt higher in the actual battle but the finisher move felt bigger here
Now this theme has finally reached 2 million views!
this is just my personal opinion but i think this is the best final boss song in kirby now. i had to specifically listen to star conquering traveler, the star dream phases, and the sectonia phases again to be sure but yeah. this is my favorite final kirby boss music. it hits my ears and brain just right, i love it. this game is Also my new favorite kirby game in general. kumazaki said in an interview released before the game came out that forgotten land is a "masterpiece" and, uh, i think he's 100% correct.
I honestly agree, this game takes the best from all of the previous modern kirby games, and does every single thing it does right. Literally every level in this game is memorable, and honestly the one thing I wish was different about it is that it was like a world longer. I've seen people complain about the difficulty but (IMO) the whole focus of kirby is on traversing the levels and solving puzzles. Kirby is also an amazing game for self imposed difficulty, I beat the true arena while only using 3 tomatoes and it was insanely rewarding
@@ScripFing of Course people are complaining about the difficulty lolll.... at this point if people are gonna complain about difficulty in a... Kirby game.... they should either find something else to play or simply stop basing a game's worth on its difficulty x'dd i honestly think that the challenge wild mode brings is good, especially with the post game stuff.
anyway sorry to complain to you about that pet peeve of mine!! this game truly is fantastic and i'm very excited for what HAL will do next with kirby, especially if they continue with this 3d platformer route.
@@icicledream EXACTLY. like this game is already incredible and I don't have a single issue with it, other than like maybe the target time challenges for the treasure roads not being needed for 100% completion lmao
It is amazing, but I have some serious nostalgia for the 3DS games. It's at least up there, but I think I still prefer Star Dream's themes, as Planet Robobot determined a lot of my musical tastes, like how I generally prefer electronic instruments. But... well, they wouldn't fit as the lead here.
@@ScripFing the ui popups that you can't skip quickly are annoying
And finding specific treasure roads can be an issue if you forget where it is
And I guess the only other issue with this game is *there isn't enough of it and I want more*
I was really wondering how they'd do the finale after just beating up monkeys and a bunch of furries and how it would all end up fighting some divine world ender shit
They delivered
They didn’t just deliver, they crushed it with this final boss
@@mrelectrodude9391 One could say it...
Hit like a truck
Fight through furries just to fight Kirby Sephiroth
That has always been the case for Kirby in general. But I guess this was especially true in this game, as it goes from all cute to all dark on a matter of a 1-min elevator ride. Little bit sad Elfilin was not more than just a mere side-character you barely even see outside the hub.
Harder than a delivery truck crashing into Costco
Man, HAL composers out there putting out bangers like this and still NOT NOMINATED in TGA's best music category. The whole award is a scam.
The fact neither Sonic nor Kirby were ever nominated for best music tells me all I need to know about Game Awards.
@@genyakozlov1316 Xenoblade 3 was and SHOULD have won best OST, it blew the competition out of the water so hard this year that they all were launched into the atmosphere.....

So, of course that award has nothing to do with real objective rating and critics, just an overly glorified popularity award and advertisement show

Had the weirdest dream last night
So in the dream, I was back in middle school, but it was post-KatFL's release and I was a band kid instead of a choir kid, I played the flute.
And during the dream, when the band teacher was giving us our sheet music for what we were learning to play... it was THIS TRACK.
Cool, in my dream I was going through a cave-like area that kinda reminds me of the Pandora series on VRChat, but then I just suddenly heard Ardyn speaking. Like- he wasn't physically there, but I heard his voice and KNEW it was him because I know what he sounds like. (He's been invading my dreams for the past two months, SEND HELP-)
Your band teacher about to answer the fermi paradox
Fun fact: As soon as the buffs shop opened up, I accidently bought a double health bar from it. So I went through half the game with the double health bar, and thank god I did, cuz this fight was the first time I needed it. After the biological abomination I like to call the hallway monster, this is a much needed musical and gameplay break. Love this boss, and love this song.
this is one of the best songs in the whole series
Like plenty of games have ambient choirs and stuff, but this game makes it MEMORABLE
Its ambient but still melodic and powerful and sticks in your head
Kirby didn’t grow to transition into 3D.
3D grew to transition into Kirby.
It’s awesome to me how this boss and it’s lore are pretty much straight out of a mush of Dark Souls and Final Fantasy, and yet it fits perfectly still in Kirby’s world
*dances in I see similarities to Hollow Knight*
It's kirby alright

I don’t know what it is about this song in particular that just puts me in a writing mood. I just focus so much better when I listen to this. This song is single-handedly responsible for me having a passing grade in my writing class.
I'd say it's because it feels pretty empowering, especially in the latter half of the music!
Certainly gets the creative juices flowing.
I used this song to help me get through 11th grade exams, AND IT WORKED WONDERS. My lowest percentage was a 79!

this fecto forgo entity is a very brand new final boss. i mean. nobody has remark that he has no the regular one eye design of the previous greater scope villains!!!
Oh, come now, magalor doesn’t-… well surely sectonia-… well of course the mother computer star dream couldn’t… well how about void termina? Last I checked it… hmm.
Well yin yarn… dark crafter… king d mind…. Huh.
THIS. The design, plus the complete lack of green greens in this ost - in almost every other track as well, actually - does a great job at emphasizing that this 'Elfilis' is completely unrelated to any previous boss, yet still a force of nature by itself!
@@123890antonioj god this game is incredible
Makes sense, although given that Fecto in any form is a multidimensional being, it makes sense. The forgotten lands may not have ever heard of dark matter to begin with
Fun Fact!: The Roche limit is when a planet gets so close that the bigger planet tears it apart, in this case when Fecto Elfilis is sending planet popstar to crash into the forgotten land, they are are about to Tear each other apart hence the name "Two Planets Approach the Roche limit"
One of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard… haha, the context of the game makes this better too. You’re fighting an angel of some sort, or at least that’s what the song is saying… in-game, it’s not really an angel, but the song makes it feel like it is.
As usual, you spend the entire game beating up on wild animals only for the final boss to be an ancient eldritch deity bent on universal destruction
This song honestly brings me to tears with emotion sometimes. The battle itself feels like a multilayered dance, each movement loaded with meaning, all culminating as Kirby faces a being showing the power of at least a minor deity. Everything has so much beauty, especially the raw passion shown through Elfilis' attacks
out of every game I've played, I would never have expected a kirby game to be the one that has a song to rival dancing mad.
It should’ve been, Kirby games go all out on their soundtracks
There was an entire suite in the last game
respect to another dancing mad fan
Dancing mad enjoyers rise UP
You obviously haven't played kirby triple deluxe
shoutout to this song for making me cry for no fucking reason other than the fact that its so beautiful
4:14 that hype moment when Chaos Elfilis ' 2nd phase tries to charge you with it's fireball attack
It strangely is a hype moment when Kirby is about to be murdered lol
3:00 is incredible. Literally spine-tingling.
Now this, THIS is how a fucking final boss theme is done.
this was one of the best fights I ever played. I loved it so much.
I was expecting a more "down to Earth" final boss since you can't really top Void, but nope: we end up fighting Archangel Gabriel's Fursona...
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
"Archangel Gabriel's Fursona" is an oddly specific way to describe Fecto elfilin, that sounds very accurate. Thank you.
Are you wrong about it being "down to earth" through? Well more "down to Popstar" to be precise.
@@boohawk659 well, certainly more so than void termina lol
When you walk to the top of the building, and elfilis is waiting there, silhouetted, casting a massive shadow over the arena.. its so cool.
Movies WISH they had soundtracks that went this hard
*And here we are! ID-F86!*
I don't think enough is said about how one of this boss's attacks is named "Fermi Paradox Answer"
Which attack is named that? I love that name.
@@ikagura The meteors during the transition to phase 2
Thanks. @@lapisfengari2428
4:13 I always have the mental image of the boss catching fire and charging you when hearing this
This is the best part
Who doesn’t love a good song that gives you goosebumps
This boss fight was actually super hard. I only got through it because dragon fire is so OP.
I win in the third attempt using meta knight sword, and it still was hard. In the arena I used the space gun and that, that is op
I used crystal needle after I died like three times it really helped with all the stars it leaves but yeah this boss is still hard as heck even with that.
Ice won it for me
I used space ranger cuz it's flurry rushes are broken
I used Morpho Knight's sword because that heals you slowly, had it not been for that I would've lost, maybe
wow this is that kind of music that takes a lot of time to enter in the head. They avoided repeating parts
I love the increased use of choir voices in the game’s climactic moments, it makes everything that much more dramatic awesome.
And of course the song itself is a perfect mix of intense, dramatic, urgent, and a twinge of hopeful, throwing in the game’s main motif in a way that makes it feel like the true, final challenge.
Kirby games always have the best climaxes, and it’s usually the best part about the more recent entries.
The Kirby (and general gaming) finales all have one or more of three things
1: you go to space
2: you fight a god or some other overwhelmingly powerful force
3:the music is either choir-heavy or straight up metal
I love you for uploading this!!!!! That part when Fecto Elfilis first appears is so fire. I want a remix of it extended.
I go into every kirby game expecting an incredible final boss theme. My expectations were delightfully met once more.
Mine were exceeded
They really do go all out with the final bosses tbh and I love it!
That snippet of “The Battle of Blizzard Bridge” at 2:08 gives me so much life.
It’s not just blizzard bridge. It’s the game’s central leitmotif.
@@MrSailing101 I think this man right here is deaf. Welcome to the New World is spammed everywhere in this game's music, almost as prevalent as Green Greens is in past Kirby music. This sequence of 6 bass notes, on the other hand occurs twice, in this and in Blizzard Bridge.
I actually thought that was the very end of Hunted by the Beast.
@@TheRealFraston This game basically uses both Running Through the New World and Welcome to the New World themes as the ‘main’ throughout this game simliar to what it was done in Kirby Planet Robobot as well
This. This right here is my personal favorite final boss in any video game. The music, the build-up, the difficulty, the final attack, This feels like something right out of platnum games.
I unfathomably adore when a track can portray the themes of a duel so vividly. As though the track itself can be consumed by itself and still deliver the whole story. Hearing the instrumentals ramp up as the song goes on leading to that bombastic final phase where Elfilis’ oppressive operatic instrumentals clash with Kirby’s iconic woodwinds, horns and guitar truly makes these two worlds preparing to collide hit so much harder.
Literally until the very end, the guitar pushing its way back in over the choir like it’s struggling but still there right before the loop hits is so good, damn dude…
Can’t wait til we get a GaMetal cover of this masterpiece
And here we are!
What a fucking amazing name for a final boss theme
And it fits the context of the battle
When the final boss of a kirby game is rocket science.
Phase 2 starts at 4:13 for anyone who wants to know
Thanks man!
I don't mean to sound nitpicky, but I revisited the fight to see how exactly the music transitions. I watched the fight on RUclips and then fought him myself just to be sure.
The transition is actually at 3:51.
Edit: Okay, so I may have been wrong. This song has so many transitions in it that I can't make sense of what plays when.
Edit 2: Okay, I actually figured it out; I was partially right. The way it works is this:
Phase 1 lasts until 3:40, at which it will loop if the player hasn't reached Phase 2 yet. Should the player end Phase 1 at a different point, the track will use 1 of 14 different transitions (Jesus Christ) in order to smoothly switch over to 4:01. So in other words...
0:00 - 3:40 = Phase 1
3:40 - 4:01 = Transition
4:01 onwards = Phase 2
