Crazy that this 22 year old game has more unique animation than current smt games. Hope this game get an translation patch, Marsh did an great video and so did this to help bring attention to 9
Several of the walking/running animations are gems! Baal's run is an unexpected moment of silliness coming from a usually imposing enemy in the series. Thank you for sharing.
Honestly, they seriously need to rework many of the animations of the current set that originally were from Persona 5. A lot of them appear very rough, jittery and clumsy. This in contrast with those from Royal and V that were more well animated.
Look into IMAGINE. It has a similar cast and just about every demon has a ton of charm and work put into their animations that you don't really see even in the modern games.
I've always had a slight fascination with NINE and how little there was floating out there about it until Marsh shed a spotlight on it. Fantastic video that just makes we want to check out the game even more.
Ushiwakamaru moving through jumping and MEGATURTLE doing a SpinToWin made me laugh so fucking hard ITS CANNON ITS IN THE LORE AND NO ONE FUCKING BELIEVED ME
This reminds me of the animations of the first two Pokémon Stadium games in just about every aspect... Animal monsters behave like animals and weird monsters pull out cool twists you wouldn't expect from their more modern animations. For example, Decarabia's "shell" reminds me of Jynx' faint animation: two completely unexpected but cool and welcome behaviours that enhance the monsters' designs.
This is the coolest video regarding Megaten in a while. I had such a blast seeing these examples you displayed. I want to go through the hassle of somehow being able to play the game just for these animations
This video is great, and showing the credits for the animator at the end was pretty cool. Seeing how much effort was put in these animations only for the game to do badly and barely being playable these days is so sad
2:39 the guy became a Gamera lol. Hey thanks for this video, i wanted to play NINE for a loooong time, it's nice to see videos about SMT NINE,very few people talk about this game (tho there are reasons...such as being somewhat hard to emulate, being an OG XBOX exclusive game and Japanese-only. Hope Atlus brig this game again or some fans do something idk)
I appreciate your hard work! SMT Nine is such a mysterious game glad there is someone like you to document it! Also, I don't know if you remember me but am the guy that asked for the Nekomata animation on Twitter
Don't worry, they'll bring back the lively animations when they make SMT TEN! Can't wait. Also, this was a pretty good "video". This technology is outstanding, these have "sound" now?
Also joker was gonna do a corkscrew animation like hanuman if he got hit with a critical but they scrapped it last minute (tcrf posted the files from royal pc release that includes it)
where in the world did you get the full version of the true neutral battle theme? ive looked all over youtube for the full versions of the music but i cant find them
In the OST the track is called "Shin Megami Tensei NINE Concept Music", it consists of 17 seconds of the SMT1 opening theme and the rest is the true neutral battle theme.

3000 iq decision
Baal covering his goblet while running is amazing.
>video about a game's animations
>shows the credits' section with the animators at the end
Neat.
God tier content! Respect the animatiors or else go watch pictures.
Honestly, SMT Nine made most of the demons actually feel like partners, and these animations are so charming
I hope the dude who made Nyarlathotep's animations had a fruitful and successful career.
If you get a chance, look at how he moves in IMAGINE. It's so goofy and adorable
The best one is ANUBIS GETTING UP FROM THE GROUND TO WALK AND RUN TO THEN SIT BACK ON THE GROUND 😭
"mom im tired"

2:39 driving when a blue shell is approaching be like
wish they would use or rework some of these animations for a future mainline SMT
I mean SMT Nine and Nocturne have different set of animations and different game engines.
Honestly, they seriously need to rework many of the animations of the current set that originally were from Persona 5. A lot of them appear very rough, jittery and clumsy. This in contrast with those from Royal and V that were more well animated.

1:20 This actually breaks my heart, somebody cheer him up!
Oh man, such a crime that not a single one of these were reused. Remind me of Pokemon Stadium's animations, so annoying but full of personality.
anubis walking
Anubis felt as cursed as those BOI😂🤚 memes
10 Decarabia shells /10
Ushiwakamaru moving through jumping and MEGATURTLE doing a SpinToWin made me laugh so fucking hard

He's doing that Eight Boat Leap

I know what Cait Sith is doing when he runs.
He's *Schmovin'!*
Do not sleep on NINE! 🗣🗣
Im still waitin on a translation patch for this lol

psychiatrist: sucubus slav isn´t real, she can´t harm you
succubus slav: 1:00
Very fun. Berith and Eligor's death animations are sick

What a fantastic video!
Btw, would it be alright if I share this vid on the Megaten subreddit?
@@magentaface2750 go nuts
These animations are so much better than what they do today, and so many demons that aren't on 3d mowadays are here too, what a shame
5:17 LANCER GA SHINDA
Damn you, Gilgamesh!
Damn you, Kirei!
Damn you, Hassan of the Hand!
KONO HITO DE NASHI!!
I love how the confusion animation is just spiiiiiiiiiiiiiin
Awww, some animations look really cute. Some are absolutely creepy
I really enjoyed this video, I love when people analyze animation details in games
this is so interesting ,thank you for collating it and getting into why each animation works/doesn't
God I wish NINE came out on the ps2 instead of the Xbox
Always nice when youtube recommends me a great vid like this one ❤❤❤❤ i fw u vroh
I greatly appreciate this video
I hope someone makes a translation of this game someday, it really makes me curious
You're goated for this
Don't worry, they'll bring back the lively animations when they make SMT TEN! Can't wait.
Also, this was a pretty good "video". This technology is outstanding, these have "sound" now?
SMTNINE ANIMATIONS LFGGG
Ok, this is epic. 😊
beautiful
Certified soul
genbu/xuanwu spins as a reference to gamera I think
Also joker was gonna do a corkscrew animation like hanuman if he got hit with a critical but they scrapped it last minute (tcrf posted the files from royal pc release that includes it)
I'm almost convinced smt nine was some tech demo that atlus sold to xbox just to get a fat microsoft paycheck
But at least the animations look good
where in the world did you get the full version of the true neutral battle theme? ive looked all over youtube for the full versions of the music but i cant find them
In the OST the track is called "Shin Megami Tensei NINE Concept Music", it consists of 17 seconds of the SMT1 opening theme and the rest is the true neutral battle theme.
@@IspywithmylittlePSI are there any other full versions of the other eight battle themes?
@@Rimalogo the OST release doesn't have Light Law and Neutral Chaos, the other 7 are there
Really cool video
Rare and horrifying video of smt NINE
Xuanwu spin.... Like
Why would you lie and say NINE isnt a masterpiece
ayo pokemon got nothin on this
