It really is, she's so forgettable honestly, I like to think they knew. She's fun but even with 4 being my first in the series she's pretty barebones. Fun theme though! Always got a darkstalkers/ vampire vibe from it.
@@PrimevalDemon How is she forgettable she's one of the game's coolest and best bosses. Bael/Dagon(the lame generic frost frog), the Savior and Sanctus are worse fights and i personally never found Agnus fun to fight, he's not bad though. Berial is cooler but less fun to fight. She's just behind Credo and arguably Dante really. That frog specifically comes to mind as a nothing boss, no redeemable qualities whatsoever and extremely forgettable.
@@zesork5627 Biggest problem I have with Echidna is that out of all of the bosses, she's the 'slowest' and takes away most player agency. Unlike most everyone else, you can't always be up in her face, comboing and parrying and dodging. You spend like, 50% of the fight shooting her while she flies around. Even the frogs don't have this problem.
@@zesork5627 Exactly my thoughts, I can't believe so many people rate Bael/Dagon and Berial so highly, let alone put them on the same tier as Echidna or even Nevan and Beowulf (!!!). The frogs are embarassing as far as Ice demons go (compare them to Cerberus), with only 2-3 attacks and a move you can't even get out of until you unlock DT. Berial looks cool and seemed to be a cool character, but he is a static boss with a bullshit AoE attack that takes out a chunk of your health for no reason. Both very lazily designed bosses, only slightly better than stuff like Gigapede in DMC3. Echidna is much more fun to fight, has a variety of different attacks, and has a fantastic "environment changes during the fight" that no other DMC4 boss attempts and blew me away when I first saw it (almost as much as that harpsichord did). She was the one who saved DMC4 for me, as I was having trouble enjoying it up until that point. Too bad it didn't last long, but oh well. I don't hate the Savior, it was a cool and creative stage. But fuck the final boss forever. Credo > Dante = Echidna >>>>>> Agnus > Berial = Sanctus 1 = Savior >>>>> Bael = Dagon >>>>> utter trash >>>>> Containment Room = Sanctus Diabolica
When I first saw Echidna in DMC4 and realised she wasn't really a dragon, my first thought was that she was a parasitic creature like her 'children' and infected an actual dragon at some point in the past. That would have been sweet if true.
i feel this soundtrack harmonized best in dmc4 with the actual fight. when you hear this theme and see the boss flying through the woods in a bad shit crazy speed.... great experience
She was actually my favorite boss fight in DMC4. Maybe even my favorite giant boss ever. It was so much fun hanging off and on of her with Nero's arm as she flew fast threw the air.
Its so satisfying to use Devil Bringer while on Devil Trigger and then smash the shit out of summoned swords and exceed for incredibly heavy amounts of damage
Capcom:Okey, we need ideas for the boss of the forest Designer:My son draw a snake with boobies, it's funny because it has got boobies. Capcom: That is...., THE BEST IDEA I HAVE EVER HEARD!
Notice how this sound harmonious yet eerie and evil at the same time, pretty sure that's how Echidna lure her prey in the lore, she make her victim feel relaxed while on her seemingly beautiful forest, not knowing it was a trap of deception until its too late
Echidna: "AAAAAAAH... My forest... my children...!" Dante: *shoots Ebony* Echidna: *is blown to pieces* Dante: "I think that look suits you better." My gawd, I so goddam LOLd when a single shot from Ebony killed her. I was like "WHY THE F*** DIDN'T YOU DO THAT EARLIER?!"
hands down echidna is my fave boss, when i play as dante, all it takes is a mastered trickster style, ebony, ivory, and a shitload of taunts every time she pauses to find dante, undamaged, and taunting. Dante, because real men use the taunt function.
Echidna: Who the hell are you!?! Dante: Glad I got your attention. I was beginning to feel a little ignored. Echidna: You may jest... but the kindest fate I offer is to unify... and spend eternity with a child of MINE!!! ... Dante: As appealing as that sounds, I think I'll pass. Though a fight every now and again does make life more interesting... Don't you think?
It felt like I was beating the shit out of a uterus in this fight, you'll know what I mean if you've fought her. Amazing track though, especially to be up a uterus with
You'd be surprised at how hardcore some older myths can be. For example Cherubim originally had four faces (man, lion, ox and eagle), were covered in eyes, and had calves feet (Ezekiel 1 : 5-12 and 10: 1-22).
That is just one of the awsome facts about these games,personaly I think its fucking awsome that you get to kill some of the mythological creatures.Dmc is full of epic things all the way :D
Just beaten this boss as Nero, so far it's been the easiest one. But I'm sure of one thing: up to now, it's the one with the most kickass design and music
also when credo was stabbed and was falling from the saviour, sanctus also happened to say, "all that is needed, is absolute power" kinda reminded me of vergil =P
vergil lives inside nero's arm. "from that day forth my arm changed. a voice echoed... power give me more power" apparently the voice is also a line vergil has in DMC3.
Nero: *runs across her back all epicly* RRRAAAAAAAGGGGHH!!!!! *about to punch her in the face but get's smacked away* Me: CRITICAL FAILURE. oh well. Nero still kicks ass.
he restored it in the middle of mission six, and nero can DT after that, with a DK familiar behind him. after DMC 1, the yamato was destroyed, and in DMC 4, nero restores it while thinking about his love interest, Kyrie (name bears semblance of valkirye) nero wasn't told the secret difference between humans and demons: devils never cry
The cutscene where Dante just shoots her once and she just fucking explodes is still the funniest fucking thing on the planet

Great looking Sexual female villainess
DMC4's soundtrack still really holds up
@thelombax2002 5's definitely. But the reboot had a lot of good soundtracks.
@thelombax2002 it's not better than reboot ost
@thelombax2002 in reality it's hard for me to choose, i like both. I think they are in the same level.
@thelombax2002 The Noisia tracks outclass the Combichrist tracks IMO. Lilith's CLub is great
The most coolest boss theme ever made it
When I first saw Echidna in DMC4 and realised she wasn't really a dragon, my first thought was that she was a parasitic creature like her 'children' and infected an actual dragon at some point in the past. That would have been sweet if true.
are you alive
That's an impressive theory
She sorta is... In a way. Just definitely not a typical one for sure... Haven't seen many morphing dragons that turn into egg spewing turrets though
That theory is actually proven on Malphas and that weird chick monster is actually still infant if you missed it
"Though a fight every now and then does make life a little more interesting, don't ya think?"
~ Dante ~
Only legends remember this line.
"as appealing as that sounds i think ill pass"
~ Dante ~
“I think that look suits you better”

1:48 that harpschord
Love it, so much!
this part is my call song on my phone for 2021 XD

I love the harpsicord theme that starts at 1:50 Its awesome!
remember castlevania.
its more like byzantine rock
Gotta love how she actually finds the time to yawn and taunt you.
Dante: "Your tired, eh? SWORDMASTER!"
XD
Agnus would like t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-to talk with you.
He doesn't talk too much like that
U suck at being agnus
1:21
That's when I get pumped.
1:21 epic multiple orgasm ehaueh
mine is 1:47
CANT RUN FROM ME
DMC4 music had this PS1 era vibe for some reason maybe one of the sound guys really enjoyed that era
One of the coolest boss themes in the series.
Capcom:Okey, we need ideas for the boss of the forest
Designer:My son draw a snake with boobies, it's funny because it has got boobies.
Capcom: That is...., THE BEST IDEA I HAVE EVER HEARD!
lol shoud've added ''What a great idea ! Let me steal it and make it DLC !''
eurogamerspain jaja
Manzanito :3 u
@It's Nietzsche, Bietzsche! It really isn't
1:50 Hello Castlevania lol
Haha i had the same thought.
Agreed
Yes between Castlevania and Dead or Alive, this track is
Notice how this sound harmonious yet eerie and evil at the same time, pretty sure that's how Echidna lure her prey in the lore, she make her victim feel relaxed while on her seemingly beautiful forest, not knowing it was a trap of deception until its too late
And her 'hair' was the dragon's 'tongue'. Never seen that before. Unique!
This track on its own is so good
man I like how each boss had there own theme makes them a little bit more menacing
The biggest and heaviest bitch/babe in Devil May Cry franchise.
+Riddle Ziddle what about dmc3 vampire?i don't remember her name
+Riddle Ziddle But what about DmC's Succubus?
+Goku Super Saiyan That game is not a DMC (it's not japanese and it's baaaaad) so it doesn't really count
***** But it is a reboot of all Devil May Cry franchise and it's excellent so I would say that it does count.
Nop doesnt count, strangers made it and its 99.99% not devil may cry.
Years later and I still listen to this for the slapping harpsichord. daaaaamn.
1:48-2:17 is better than sex. Very unique and beautiful, melodic, yet demonic theme. Echidna best girl.
Really like this song, one of the best composition I've heard in any video game
As apealing as that sounds, I think I'll pass.
Though a fight every now and then does make life a little more interesting.
Don't ya think?
Echidna: "AAAAAAAH... My forest... my children...!"
Dante: *shoots Ebony*
Echidna: *is blown to pieces*
Dante: "I think that look suits you better."
My gawd, I so goddam LOLd when a single shot from Ebony killed her. I was like "WHY THE F*** DIDN'T YOU DO THAT EARLIER?!"
I guess she needed some pruning first.
he wanted fun xD
Maybe she doesn't have 1 of HP left.
Because this is cutscene😂
Smokin' Sick Style.
You can hardlly recoginise Mary Elizabeth McGlynn's voice as Echidna.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaat? 0_0
Most epic boss in the game in my opinion.
rogerio mortoni Finally, someone who agrees. :)
rogerio mortoni credo was better but she is actually fight flying not like gaygnus
*Most epic boobs
ROGERINHO NAQUELE PIQUEEEEE
I think that Credo's were even more epic. She gets the second place hahah
hands down echidna is my fave boss, when i play as dante, all it takes is a mastered trickster style, ebony, ivory, and a shitload of taunts every time she pauses to find dante, undamaged, and taunting.
Dante, because real men use the taunt function.
she and credo
"STOP THROWING YOUR CHILDRENS AT ME!"
i get super pumped at 1:21
You: "What we having for dinner?"
Her:"You."
You:"Oh, *Grabs his kickass sword and smashes her face*"
I prefer the scenario when she breaks my face instead... if you know wh...
Echidna Nevan and Jokatgulm were the best boss battles ever besides Dante and Vergil boss fights of course
Heh, I thought I was the only one who liked Jokatgulm.
What about Malphas?
here i come rougher than the rest of them, the best of them tougher than leather
oh shit wrong echidna
Hey Potter my dude, fancy seeing you here. How's the modding scene coming along?
The fact that Donguri can defeat her without touching the ground is mindblowing. I mean, imagine if Pandora didn't exist
MY FAVOURITE BOSS SOUNDTRACK OF DMC 4 !!!
Echidna: Who the hell are you!?!
Dante: Glad I got your attention. I was beginning to feel a little ignored.
Echidna: You may jest... but the kindest fate I offer is to unify... and spend eternity with a child of MINE!!!
...
Dante: As appealing as that sounds, I think I'll pass. Though a fight every now and again does make life more interesting... Don't you think?
0:52 - 1:21 is my favorite part
echidna is one of my favorites bosses and her song is great!
plays this every time i play Cassopia in lol. its so fitting pretending to be a boss fight
Amazing song with an AMAZING BOSS
"In this world, a letter can make much difference."
First time I ever heard this was in a sprite battle animation. Knew it sounded familiar when I got to this boss. So glad I found the origin.
It felt like I was beating the shit out of a uterus in this fight, you'll know what I mean if you've fought her. Amazing track though, especially to be up a uterus with
yeah i know what u mean
Raven69XXXX yeah i know what youre talking about.
I love to do , her reaction in top , aww man . I got boner .
@@hunter-z4547 What?
@@hunter-z4547 What the fuck?
4:18 reminds me of Orochimaru's theme @_@
Great Music
She is my second favorite of the bosses. I love the artwork and creativity behind her design.
You would say that though
Castlevania-esque.
*MAH CHILDREN*
I love me some harpsichord @ 1:48
THANK YOU
AGT88
AGT88 My favorite part of the song
A castlevania king field vibe
You'd be surprised at how hardcore some older myths can be. For example Cherubim originally had four faces (man, lion, ox and eagle), were covered in eyes, and had calves feet (Ezekiel 1 : 5-12 and 10: 1-22).
i love this fight so much,its really awesome,with both nero and Dante
one of the best track in the series
1:48 - 2:15
Death tu mamá I love that part; always love hearing a good harpsichord!
Easiest boss to get stylish ps with vrgil
1:23 scariness increases 😱🤯
sounds like something you'd hear on Godzilla final wars.
that's it i am downloading & playing the game again
i love that "asian" sound on 1:43
Echidna and Nevan hottest demons in Devil May Cry (besides Trish).
That is a killer demon!!!!!!
OMG i love this song! Can someone tell me bands with a sound similar to this? Thank you very much!!!
Lu Hu tekken 5 has a few ost like antares, ground zero funk and moonlight
Funnily enough, those who are debating Nevan v Echidna.. they both have the same voice actress. X3
これホンマかっこいい
Queen of DMC4
omg! seriously every boss songs ROCKS!
Hehe, me too :D this is my favorite boss because you can do so much stuff with the Demon Hand with this boss.
I really don't understand why people hate the music in DMC series, it's some of the most fitting I've seen in any games ever!
some people dont have good taste i guess
Nevan and Echidna's voices = Mary Elizabeth McGlynn's voice
Detonate Lucifer when she's off in the background. Instant S combo.
hey dudes, has any of you tried playing the game with super costumes? if you have, let me know what you think.
this song is awesome it goes best with Dracula XD
1:20 best part love it :DD
Poison Ivy!
You know you are what you eat!
That´s why I told you, you should eat more meat and not your plants!
MY CHILDREN!
Devil May Cry 4 best part
That is just one of the awsome facts about these games,personaly I think its fucking awsome that you get to kill some of the mythological creatures.Dmc is full of epic things all the way :D
@Xanatos712 Huh. That was hilarious.
And yeah, I concede the point. He DID use Ivory.
Just beaten this boss as Nero, so far it's been the easiest one. But I'm sure of one thing: up to now, it's the one with the most kickass design and music
@CyberSlayer128 Makes sense. So all the bosses live through more than one hit only because Dante wants to allow the player to have some fun, too...
WHY DO PEOPLE FIND THIS....PLANT THING SEXY?!
Snoweypyro 64 u cant see the woman?
The reddish greenish blueish slime covered thing with tentacles in its head?
Snoweypyro 64 shes a flower serpent..echidna a legendary beast
...
***** she's short, cute, colorful, has an air of mystery, and is batshit insane. It's sorta the we want what's to dangerous have effect.
also when credo was stabbed and was falling from the saviour, sanctus also happened to say, "all that is needed, is absolute power" kinda reminded me of vergil =P
yeah a flying dragon with a lady inside. Thats something now lol.
The short piano parts sorta remind me of a Final Fantasy 8 midi file, Ultimecia's Castle or something. gotta love that piano ^^
A wild bitch appeared! awesome!
You may jest, but the kindest fate I can offer is to unify, and spend eternity with a child of MINE!
HEY, HEY, *HEY~!* C'MON BABES!
I will make a piano arrangement for this
I like the weather and speed of the fight.
vergil lives inside nero's arm. "from that day forth my arm changed. a voice echoed... power give me more power" apparently the voice is also a line vergil has in DMC3.
in Greek mythology she is the mother of Cerberus and the other monster that wreak havoc.. and she mates with Typhon
the haprsichord solo is so tasty
I need a Mashup between this and Nephtys' theme from Zone of Enders
This is the best boss for take your time and practice all the tecnique of nero because you never going to die fighting against echidna
Nero: *runs across her back all epicly* RRRAAAAAAAGGGGHH!!!!! *about to punch her in the face but get's smacked away*
Me: CRITICAL FAILURE. oh well. Nero still kicks ass.
Way to make the most cryptic of similarities sound like a big deal.
Revving the EX gauge during a Buster on her deals extra damage, and no amount of facts can convince me otherwise.
My favorite boss in this game
he restored it in the middle of mission six, and nero can DT after that, with a DK familiar behind him. after DMC 1, the yamato was destroyed, and in DMC 4, nero restores it while thinking about his love interest, Kyrie (name bears semblance of valkirye)
nero wasn't told the secret difference between humans and demons:
devils never cry
Underrated boss
