It's also very refreshing how tonally different each book's theme is. Book 2 was very generic, but when we revisited Nifl and Muspell, we got a banger piano cover, Book 3 is straight heavy metal, Book 4 is whimiscal fantasy, Book 5 is techno, Book 6 is straight up violin masterpiece, and book 7 is more orchestral.
Too bad the books don't have any competent writing to accompany the music. EDIT: After listening to it properly I think it's pretty overrated. Not a bad piece by any means but it's just decent.
Every newly introduced song is the best song. Every Book opener? A banger. Every new Story Map Battle theme? Bangers. The Boss Battle themes? Bangers. The Tempest Trials Ascended Story Bosses? Bangers. Even the Smash Bros. Remix of the main castle theme is a genuine banger. It could almost trick you into thinking FEH's plot is actually good or something.
Smash Bros remix? You mean of the FE franchise main theme? Cuz the Castle theme IS itself a remix of that, right? Or am I wrong? Sorry, I don't remember How it's titled in the smash ost

I'm back here after Seidr asked us to become the father of her baby and Gullveig having a possibility of being that baby. What a ride that book have been, let me tell you.
Personally I think it's the infected girl we see from the beginning who will become Gullveig in the future. This could explain why we couldn't find the Gullveig of the present because she simply doesn't exist yet.
@@maximax1040Of course Heidr will become Gullveig. Mythologically speaking, it tracks, since in the Voluspa, Gullveig became Heidr after getting thrice sacrificed, and even in story, the connection of the curse to becoming Gullveig is obvious.

I haven't been this hyped for a book since book 3, the theme, the character designs, the story & lore implications, this book is already super strong, I can't wait.
Book 4 was the last book that genuinely excited me, but I'd be lying if I said that Eitri's cutscene from the end of Book 5 wasn't super well done. (In Japanese though, can't stand her English voice.)
That said, super excited for Book 7. Snake Mommy and Heiðr especially have me super intrigued. Snake Mommy's design is peak, can't wait to +10 her next November. Seiðr is also a great free OC.
@@Lily-bp7ny oh don't get me wrong I love eitri, even her english voice, she's great just the writing of book 5 wasn't the most clear or concise all the time y'know? Super excited for Gullveig though, amazing villain already
The lyrics might be in reverse? The theme is time traveling (?) and no one is capable of deciphering what language this song uses for it's lyrics I'm guessing it's in reverse. Sounds a little bit like it's in reverse as well. Fact check?
Maybe the words are written in reverse but sung normally. If it was played in reverse it would sound a bit diferant. The sentence beats and structure sound on point which is usually ruined when a sentence is played in reverse.
So, to everyone wondering if this theme is reversed: I tried running it backwards through editing software and cleaned it up as best as I could, and while there seems to be a somewhat palindromic *melody* (even then, not really) , the lyrics still don't seem to resemble any known language. Hope that helps.
Yeah, same. I did the same, and really, only the bridge to section B is reversed. Everything else was thought linearly. Also, although I understand that many people were suspicious of it being lyrics reversed by default. Since there’s a logic of consonant before vocal in most of the words pronounced; I suspected that probably the lyrics were just thought like a made up language. Still was worth the shot.
@@makon89 Sometimes it sounds like it, but because of the extensive use of sounds with double r, which are not common at all in Japanese and strong pronunciation in some syllables. If it is in fact Japanese, it’s kinda sus.

I think Book 7 by far has the best start of all books, between the time shenanigans having it start from chapter 13, then 5 seeming to be the more proper start point in the perspective of Alfonse. I do wonder if we'd see something like chapter 14 instead as it starts at the end with chapter 13, would also be interesting if we replay chapter 13 with the slightest differences as a deviation in the timeline and then afterwards is chapter 14>15>16. If they go that route with an extended version of this song, all would be right.

seeing as the chapters arent strictly just in reverse order perhaps the lyrics arent just in reverse? like maybe its just out of order? and eventually theyll give us full lyrics that we can unjumble.
i am so glad i dug my heels into this game. it has no right being this good, it really doesn't, but each book keeps me hooked. Book 3 so far is my fave (Lif is by far a fave of mine x3) Book 4 had a really interesting plot twist. Book 5 had that moment when Kiran gets kidnapped and seeing Alfonse throw caution to the wind just shows how far he's come and Eitri's ending video was so good! Book 6 was a perfect end to the conflict that had been stewing since book 1. Book 7 instantly starts us off with an honestly unsettling opening theme and video, and Seiðr commenting that somehow, Kiran is familiar to her and thats why she shares the vision with them. i'm in it for the long haul lessgo! Also if they did a Sharena and Alfonse dlc for Engage, i would buy that in a heartbeat. this game needs more recognition!
If it’s real, I have no clue what language it is. It’s not Latin, that’s for sure. Sounds kinda like a Germanic language, maybe something Northern European?
I don't think it can be actual Japanese because of the pronunciation, but it could very well be reversed Japanese like the heron songs in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. It doesn't actually sound like a Scandinavian language to me, but who knows.
This whole Book ruined the reputation with the fanbase, personally. Two major plotholes were never resolved: 1) What was the point of Seidr asking you to make a baby with her? It served no purpose to the story; people said that was supposed to be Heidr, but the Summoner never officially agreed to doing so, and Heidr wasn't born from the light of Vanaheimr like Seidr said the baby would be. 2) Why doesn't Seidr remember ANY of her time as Kvasir? They poke fun at that plothole at the end but they left it unanswered and it felt like really lazy writing to do so. I'm hoping the next book will be better. Book 3 was probably the coolest book in FEH so far, and so intertwined into the FEH characters.
What honestly ruined this book a lot for me was the entire plot that played out with Njordr and Heidr before her death. The book greatly degraded in quality from that point on. Nerthuz being able to conjure up a makeshift solution with NO explanation of why she can was also a massive "??????????" plot point. Really all of my gripes with this book happen after they confront Njordr. It's when Gullveig gets 'born', Heidr dies and the whole cycle plot goes to die on a hill because Nerthuz could just... undo it. If they just kept the plot the way it was up until after we meet Kvasir and just change the story from there, it'd have potential to be great.
@@stellarstar6553 Njordr was such a wasted potential for a good villain. He had good motivations ("Humankind is too powerful, the gods continue to die by mortal hands, etc" which also side note, if he had mentioned Freyr and Freyja by name and how they were slain by human hands, would have boosted the story 75%) but the moment he FULLY reveals himself, he just gets decimated. Also Nerthuz is a horrible person too, she clearly knew just how twisted her brother's plans were but she plays vague the whole time without trying to warn the Askr trio just WHY Njordr wasn't to be trusted. Although to be fair with her "magical plot-resolving solution", it's implied it was only a power boost in previous cycles and that wasn't enough to stop Gullveig, so the already powered Breidablik that Kvasir gives you gets an even bigger buff. This book was super convoluted... And to make matters worse they had TIME TRAVEL in this book and didn't do anything interesting with it. No adult/baby Askr Trio, no child Freyr/Freyja, etc.
Coming back to it after Book 7 has finally ended... this book really sucked. But the main theme and the Seer's Snare theme music were so good. I'll take the positives with the MASSIVE amount of negative.
It was without a doubt standard book, because frankly all the book are meh even the book 3 that probably all people like because at that time feh was in his best moment... At least this one have a great theme
@@danieldiaz-fg2rv It was standard, but it was also probably the weakest book in terms of story. Book 3 was incredibly strong (and I'm still mad we haven't gotten a Hel alt yet), and while I think Book 5 had its major flaws (Otr's underdeveloped character and the disappointing lack of focus on Fafnir himself), the cast was at least diverse and interesting. And Book 6 gave us our first look at Askr and Embla, which was really cool, plus Letizia was interesting (but also needed more development).
@@TheChildofAuraReborn in terms of story all the books are weak with a lot of inconclusive plot points and rush as hell, but they're ok because they only could do much in the 13 chapter with like 90 short paragraph of dialogue in total... My point is that all the book are okay and saying that one is a lot better than other is more about preferences and in some cases nostalgia because all are lacking nearly the same
@@danieldiaz-fg2rv That's fine, I'm just stating MY preference is all. I like Books 3 and 6 more than most of the other ones and I feel like Book 7 was the weakest.

this ost went particularly hard, like all feh music has been good, but holy shit this is next level
Ok, but what are they singing... what does this mean
Is this an actual language being sung? I know for past themes with lyrics, they had an actual language, but I can't pin this one down.
If it’s real, I have no clue what language it is. It’s not Latin, that’s for sure. Sounds kinda like a Germanic language, maybe something Northern European?
It might need to be reversed since this whole book is all about time
Japanese since I can hear the word kibo which means hope.
No, this very obviously is not Japanese.
I don't think it can be actual Japanese because of the pronunciation, but it could very well be reversed Japanese like the heron songs in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn.
It doesn't actually sound like a Scandinavian language to me, but who knows.

@@danieldiaz-fg2rv That's fine, I'm just stating MY preference is all. I like Books 3 and 6 more than most of the other ones and I feel like Book 7 was the weakest.
I honestly think Book 7 was one of the better books
I used to think this theme sucked because I always finished the battle too quickly before I get to the good part
sounds like drakengard and nier

Almost guaranteed to be something reversed, given the theme of this book. Wonder what it is.
Still not reinstalling though lmao
That’s the first thought that came to mind also fair enough
Yep, at 0:53 those notes are clearly reversed. Good catch!
Your loss.
Same. I hope everyone else has fun. The character designs don't help things much. Also Book 3s screamo is still better.
it reminds me of seven deadly sins lol
What language is that?
Emblish
Hsilgne
Norse
We’ve been to-
Midgard
Muspelheim
Nifelheim
Helheim
Alfheim
Nidovalear
Jötunheim
And now Vanaheim next better be Asgard.
I didnt like the song at first, but woah they made an amazing song for a motherfucking mobille gacha game
Hard to diggest even the gacha mobile phone game has better story than Engage...
Could we get a backwards version too?
