Fun Fact: Jack-O has the same voice actress as Jill Valentine in the Resident Evil 3 Remake in English. She has literally played Jack and Jill and they both have the same last name
We've got "I'm a fool! Maybe I'm worthless!" "I don't care how many more scars I get!" and "Strike back! Get them out of your way! You don't care if along the way is a little sacrifice!" and then we have funny popcorn song
The song makes a lot of sense when you consider that both of Jack-O's personalities are represented in this song. The childish one wants to have fun and go on dates with Sol while the mature one wonders about the world and the possibilities for her life, now that her purpose has been fulfilled and she has been allowed to live as herself instead of being taken over by Aria
I dont get why people call this song bad or mid. Each theme reflects the feelings of the character they belong to and it makes sense that they have dramatic and heavy tones. But jack-o isnt like that, she enjoys living and has her whole life ahead of her. Not everyone has to be a baiken or zato, not every lyric has to be about vengeance or loss. Jack-o is simply not that kind of a character. I think it would be bad if the song DID fall in line with the others because she isnt in line either. This is her new beginning of course its going to be hopeful and warm.
I understand. She realises that she doesn't need to become the perfect copy of Aria, of a past life that is no longer there. Perfection can't please her, perfection can't even be attained. How many miles is a life? How far can she go? This journey is her own. And she's sorry if she bothered anyone by insisting for a time that the journey wasn't hers. It's all hers and it always was.
Which is actually kinda sad since she always felt like her existence was just a placeholder until aria’s consciousness returned so she wanted to spend her limited time the best way she can
@@grandmabetty4654 Jack-o thinks that when Aria's consciousness comes back soon her own will disappear forever. In the ending Aria lets Jack-o continue to live for her instead
This song is so unlike the other tracks in strive but at the same time it's so pure and full of joy it almost makes me want to cry, I really really love this song
That epic moment when your friend is a god Jack-O and kicks your ass before running and override command grabbing you- Jack-O was a product of That Man, made for holding Aria’s soul for her to, later, manifest into Jack-O and get Fredrick (Sol) his girlfriend back, finally. However, they had to go through hell to turn her into a human. But, they succeeded. Now, I don’t wanna spoil the Strive story, but please watch it if you wanna see Jack-O’s story and character get summed up really well./ Now, her theme, it really do be boppin’ and poppin’ like popcorn. So happy-go and talking about how that she doesn’t care what she was made for, she is here now and is living and breathing. She has a chance to live in her own and decides that she will and just have fun and try human things like wear new shoes and use an umbrella. Great theme with a great character. Certified bop.
Listening through the Strive vocal tracks for the first time, and I seem to always end up liking the girls’ songs better, since I’m not a huge metal fan. Like this one a lot
I'm a massive metal fan, yet this track is my favorite out of every other track in the whole game. Maybe this song is leagues better than the rest, or maybe I'm just a major Jack'O simp.
@@zachstarattack7320 Agreed that’s another of my favorites. Let Me Carve Your Way, The Town Inside Me, and Disaster of Passion are probably my top three
opposite. Dont realy like May's theme. Just didnt catched me as every else. I am more fan of Death's Kiss, Play the Hero and Faut's theme. Also love to here Chaos just cause of it releatabele text and Bedman.... Cause he got too strangely satisfying OST.
@@Fandestdh the piano in the background is playing in a similar style, and certain parts have shared motifs, along with a similar, just slower vocal style. So yeah, it kinda does
@@kurodracovalladares8823 he's also a fan of the band Basically, he's somewhat intended to be an amalgamation of what Daisuke found cool. Though that goes for a lot of the characters. Guilty Gear is basically fighting game Jojo with all the references
Erm... They do have a meaning. Basically saying life is wonderful and she wants to see the world. She doesn't need things to be perfect; she's just happy to be alive.
@@mendfi5427 you know what jack o is right? Jacks is a clone of aria the previous wife of Frederick (sol) she was supposed to become aria by inheriting arias memories etc. well it seems like she doesn’t want to become aria anymore because she found fun in her new life and started developing feelings of her own trying to live her new life to the fullest as possible. “Perfection” was she striving to be aria it being not enough means that she wants to be more than just a clone….. anyways either way the dead aren’t coming back
I will say this has to be my favorite song from Guilty Gear, really goes well as a anime opening and when Random Select used this for Nitro’s comeback to reset the bracket it was hype. Brought a tear to my eyes, this is why I love fighting games!
Unironically my favorite song in the game at first impressions, i just started playing and i desperately want to main her for her design and theme song alone
First time I have seen her without the mask. Don't know this series, just enjoying the music right now for each character. This type of fighting game isn't my thing, but man I like this game's ost. Though I knew about her due to the memes surrounding her, but never saw her face. Went from a michevious character that likes chaos, to being really cute really quick.
I get why people may dislike this song, but lemme tell you, this is a perfect song for playing Jack-O. It represents the gameplay perfectly; when you're playing it, you're in a moment
From what I can understand, she enjoys the feeling of a brand new experience, and wants everyday of her entire life to be something different and exciting. The stillness and stagnancy of perfection is boring for her. Despite this, she is aware that such a ridiculous wish is foolish to make. Did I get it right?
She literally looks like an angel! No really, she's got a halo and everything! And I love her robot mask! She reminds me of Celica A Mercury from Blazblue. Perky redhead who has a connection to the main character.
my god has this song grown on me, I've never played these games but The Town Inside me then this, might be worth looking into if the games are close to as good as the songs
as almost totally multiplayer games YMMV but even just exploring the characters fighting styles and backstories is fun bc this series is so creatively rich, and some of them have been building and paying off their arcs for 20 years now. I say give it a shot!
I don’t know why some people consider bad this theme. I love the cheering rock and the although they are not very deep, the very good lyrics. Is it because this theme is not intense? Just Lean is considered as an excellent song and it’s not very intense. I simply don’t understand.
There's a mod for Ocarina of Time that lets you do emotes. One of them is Jack-O's signature pose (with a bit of movement..) with this music playing. So now my brain always associates this music with Link twerking.
This is one of my favorite songs from the soundtrack, and I stand by that 100%. I don’t know what it is, but this song just makes me really happy for some reason. Plus it’s really catchy.

This song has 2 meanings, one heard by someone who knows the lore, and one who doesn’t, nearly somewhat the same.
what i be listening to when the gang not around:
This song is like the inside of my head all the time.
I think now that I’ve listened to the song a few times I finally figured out the meaning of the song, it’s about experiencing different things in life
I don’t know why some people consider bad this theme. I love the cheering rock and the although they are not very deep, the very good lyrics. Is it because this theme is not intense? Just Lean is considered as an excellent song and it’s not very intense. I simply don’t understand.
I think at this point it’s just the popular opinion to hate on this song, people’s reasons normally go like “it’s just bad,” or “it doesn’t fit.”

(Crawl, Love the Subhuman Self, Mirror of the World)
3. What tf are you actually talking about, man?

Most themes fit into one or two of these categories, Jack-O's theme fits into all three. She sings about wanting to understand Sol's feelings and being there for him in his lowest moments, she acknowledges that life isn't just going around only doing what's fun and that she can move on with life without being held back her past, it also sounds like she's saying complete jiberish at points, and thats what makes this song great.
