I mean.....it's absolutely zero competition. Mir is best girl.
2024 and this is still a banger
Came here to say the same! Haha
XD
I'd like to expand on the context. The identity of the first singer (Jakuri) is even more profound when you recognize who she really is. She herself has closed herself from the world for much of her life, so Jakuri entreating with the heart of the sealed Reyvateil to open up carries so much emotional weight seeing as Jakuri is one of the few people on Ar Ciel that can empathize with that sort of trauma. I remember reading somewhere that a Reyvateil doesn't necessarily have to keep physically singing once the song magic is underway. She only needs to maintain the emotions she felt when evoking the song magic. Given that Jakuri is literally baring her soul out there for this song despite the self-doubt and self-loathing she undoubtedly is plagued by, (as evidenced by her Cosmosphere) this makes this song magical and more beautiful on a whole new level than what you see on the surface. Reading the lyrics made me shudder in awe of this moment all over again.
This sort of thing is why this is one of my favorite JRPG series despite its various shortcomings
@@realkraid I think most shortcomings are because of when it was made and lack of budget. I bet if this exact story got Square Enix, Final Fantasy type money, the mechanics and the like would be better. But yes, I agree that is an amazing series that is often so overlooked. I am glad some appreciate it at least.
@@LadyTsuki I think the mechanics are fine but the further they went in the sequels the more fanservicy they got. By the third they had dropped all pretense of hiding the eroge inspired scenes behind innuendo.
@@WalkerRileyMC You are right that the further they went, the more fanservice the games had. However, even the very first game had a decent amount of innuendo. Diving and install ports being the prime examples I can think of at the moment. You are right about the third though. It's by far my least favorite of the games and the way they did it was pointless. It had no pre-established reasoning and while the other two had some innuendo, the third I feel was closer to soft-core eroge. I think the first games examples are quite tame by comparison.
Oh and I don't only dislike the third game because of this stuff. It also had the weakest story and the worst heroines. I would be more forgiving, I think, if not for that bit. It's not a terrible game but much weaker than the first two and Ar no Surge.
@@LadyTsuki Except AT1's story is a lot weaker and more standard JRPG fare compared to AT3's story, which has some interesting things between the interactions the three factions vying for power in Sol Cluster have and all the twists and turns that it takes to make a reality the failed Planet Regeneration Project. AT1's only good things storywise were the ending fakeout at the end of Phase 2 and the way it decided to have Mir saved instead of killed to make its point, but for the rest its only strong points were its setting, music, and only a handful of characters. Also, I don't see how the AT3 heroines were the worst when Shurelia has zero in-game development, and Misha had a Cosmosphere that was made as an afterthought pretty much copying what they already had made for Aurica.
The great thing is that according to the lore this isn't a boss theme, it's a conversation.
2019. This song is still unmatched
Make that 2022
Make that 2023
Soon make it 2024
2024 Friday Morning, hearing this before going to work. :D
that 11/8 time signature that alternates every 4th measure to 12/8th. FFS what a nightmare that sounds so pretty
Its not really that hard to play odd time signatures... a bit of rhythm practice wih coordination helps.
*SPOILER:*
It's still really badass to this day that you get to have this girl as a playable character considering she was the *FINAL BOSS* of the previous game.
some games did that
@@SquallSZ true but it was just genius, special if she is in villian mocking mode and said how she would have done it.
And going even further in being best girl of the whole series. I really loved her character in AT2 way too much. They really did a phenomenal job with her.
@@christianstephan7301 Jacqli is so good that they brought in a male singer for her ending theme, the only male singer in the whole series.
@@seafoam6119what is the name of the song?
it's song like this, that remind me why the Hymnos songs are so friggen amazing *_*
~_~*
guess i can't do the star looking face here lol
Out of the first two games (which are the only ones I've played), I think this is the best hymmnos song. It embodies almost everything great about the style - the use of layered, esoteric harmonies to compress emotional power into the music without sacrificing complexity of sound. This song is in 11-time, with a 12-beat measure inserted every three 11-beat ones, and complex rhythms are layered over a heart-beat base. It is a perfect composition, and it shows in the enormous power it has.
The chorus is 6/8 then 5/8
@cumnmempt aaa and @Todd Parker How do both of you work it out? I never really understood how to count them.
@@cumnmrmptaaa4234 Actually I think your both right. The main time seems to be 6/8. But for the Chorus it switches to 11/8 and 12/8. During the chorus some notes are held for 11 beats and that would look awkward if you switch time signatures during the note.
2020 and it is still one of the best hymn!
Almost 2023, still my favorite
@@JosephPriceArt so glad to see another artonelico fan!
2018 it's still the best song
2019
2020
My second favorite behind heart talks
2021 and I enjoy it as always.
The Best way to celebrate the New Year is listening to this Master Piece
indeed
2021 still one of my favs.
in 2019 i still listen this
i come back here in 2023
i come back here in 2024
Song: Masterpiece
The battle that it's used in: bruh moment.
The gameplay itself looks like today's mobile phones games albeit a better ones since it is not restricted via pay wall of trying to access contents. Still hard to not love the game.
BigBoi Ganiga i think he means in the story. All of them were staring at the heart of the land like idiots and then jacqli came in like "hey guys, what exactly was your plan?"
@@C4lmaria Yeah. Basically my problem with the game is the fucking idiot balls the protagonists hold, especially in part 2 and part 5
@@bigboiganiga8356 Yes, sadly if they would bring this Game in this times out, it would be like that. So an Remaster would not survive. It would need more 202X Stuff
I feel ya sis: the song
2018 Oct. still listen this bravo song
Ar tonelico, mana khemia . . . . man, ps2 have some of the best jrpgs
The 2000s was the peak of Gust games.
Mir sings this song to unveil the barriers of the Heart of the Land while also reflecting her attempts to reconcile with the predicaments of her own heart. This makes the slow, methodical heartbeats in this song all the more breathtaking.
2020 and i still came back here listening to this
Also "Desfel", meaning hate. Interestingly, "Infel" means love, and the word comes up a lot in game (Infel Pira, the "Seed of Love", and Infel, the first IPD).
I completely agree, to me this song embodies everything powerful about the series. Considering how goofy it could be, there were certain times when you could really feel the boiling emotions of the characters in AT, and this song is the ultimate example of that.
Truly an example of art as the embodiment of one's expression
Sol Ciel reyvateils never fail me, truly beautiful
A great proof of art as the embodiment of emotion and expression
One of my top favourite songs from Ar Tonelico series. You did a great job in doing the timing! The first time I listened to it, even with lyrics, there are parts where I couldn't catch (the softer singing parts).
Oh boy, the lyrics make perfect sense now. Who else but her that can understand what it feels to be hurt and chained.
"Lady Cloche: it's overflowing from the inside...

Failure is not a option!"
ヒュムノスの中で一番好き。詩が良い。 この動画、英語訳が日本語からではなくヒュムノス語から訳してるのが印象的だった。
2023 AND THIS ARE OF MY FAVORITE MUSIC IN MY PLAY LIST EPIC GAMER MUSIC 🤩😍☺😚😋😍❤💜💝💖💝❤💝💖❤💝❤💝💝❤💜❤💝❤💝❤💝💖💝❤💜❤💜💝💜❤💝❤💝😚💝❤💝❤💝❤💜💜❤💜❤💜❤💝💝❤💝💖💝❤💜❤💝❤💝💖💝❤💝💖💝❤💜❤💜❤💜💝❤💝💝❤💝❤💝💖💝💝❤💝💖💝❤💝💖💜❤💝💖💝❤💝💝💖💝❤
2020 here. Song is still slamming.
Does anyone notice the heartbeats in the background? Hearing that makes me think this is her version of Rustling Throb/Hearts Aflutter. Makes this song so much more epic for me.
The music is fantastic.
@MyraSlokov No worries! Thanks again for all your video work (and to your translation sources) to get these up!
2019 still the best
2020. Any contenders yet?
2021
2021
@MyraSlokov Also Jaqli had a pretty dark past herself, considering... so it makes sense that she'd be the one to try to reach out to the Heart of Gaea. I've seen a lot of your video work and I'm really impressed! Thanks for all the hard work!
Amazing song. This game's music is too damn good.
2020 and still listening
Just found this song in a gameplay from 10 years ago
Absolutely amazing
Damn... I forgot how fucking awesome this game and it's music is
Never thought that this song actually have lyrics in it, I thought they're just making up words XD but to tell you honestly even if it doesn't have any meaning in it, i still love it.. because in my heart, all of the hymnos in artonelico II are precious part of me.
2020 and not only is this song unmatched, it kind of mirrors the year
I'd have to say Dispedia or Exec Z is a clearer mirror of this year lol
@@sonicbhoc or exec hibernation
Thanks! ^_^ It took a while to make this one since it's long.. I might do a longer one but we'll see hah
Thanks
jakuri/mir is my favorite ar tonelico character and noriko mitose is my favorite jp singer. this song is one of the many reasons why ^.^
One way I can tell it's Jacqli singing is because it's sung by Noriko Mitose who sings her hymmnos songs =)
The grahic fit to music perfectly. This is the favorite track of mine.The other's exec-rig=veda
I love this song.
you have my respect, the video is very good, to damn good
2021, as i stupidly await a rerelease of the series ;w;
2024. Listen to this song, the song of truth.
2020 this song is still excellent
FAV SONG EVER in AT 2 >
2021 Best song all songs
I pair MIR whit Croix XD I dunno, it's my favorite ending and cosmosphere
Fuck, the second part hits hard
hi very nice video great job thanks for everything
2024. hymmnos is a divine language. still my favorite AT song
i found this song from a porn site..
welcome to the internet.
It's better than porn ;)
Not surprising considering Ar Tonelico music is porn for the ears.
boi what kind of porn did you watch?!
reivateil porn lol?
Of course its porn. Since its giving you eargasm.
I love it
Would you happen to be interested in doing the same thing with EXEC_DESPEDIA , by any chance? That one always stood out to me as unique among the other songs, although my favorite is...hmm...probably VIENA...great job on SPHILIA and CHRONICLE_KEY by the way. If you hadn't heard yet, Ar Tonelico 3 comes out in Japan on January 28. No word yet on a US release, unfortunately.
Does anybody have a link to the instrumental? I've seen that it's from a sample of sorts but I wanted to know if I could find this off vocal
You would be crazier for not loving it!
2023 still best song
Eu em 2022 ouvindo isso no carro indo buscar meu filho na escola aos 32 anos de idade.
best hymnos ever :P
this song for some reason reminds me of dream theater
probably the 11/8 with occasional 12/8
@EinherjarLucian I hope so but there are so many lyrics that overlap so it would take a lot of time and effort, which I don't have much of unfortunately =/ I want to in the future though =P
i agree, especially when jacqli flirt croix xD
2021 owo
yeah mate, i'm extremely excited and pissed off at myself for not getting a ps3 when i had the chance :3
Probably the best modern incarnation of Zeuhl music
I'm not sure, what does this have to do with Magma?
in my eyes Mir is the best char
I learned two hymnic words from this song :3.
Yorr and Was ki ga :3.

みとせ のりこさん Chrono Cross Radical Dreamers~盗めない宝石からいつもお世話になってます。
Isn't the tune segment that starts after :30 used in Naruto as well? It's super familiar.
Its not even close.
its exactly the same tune
Some link to may see it?
Please.
I think it's from .hack
Who is made by the same company that makes the Naruto games.
RIG=VEDA will probably be done later on, for some reason my movie maker is being evil and timing that song is gunna take a long time, but it will be done!
Imma leave this here...
Hello future me what year are u in now?
-2021 me
Jacqli is best girl in the series
even though it is romanized as exec sphilia I think this song is actually EXEC_SphIlar it would make more sense because sphilia isn't in the Hymnos server dictionary
I agree. Particularly given the song's function.
The names of the songs are considered as proper nouns unless they use a known Hymmnos word, so Sphilia is every bit as valid as Metafalica or Implanta here. Plus, as if there weren't countless words that didn't get registered in the Hymmnoserver.
... Except that it's clearly a mistranslation. It might be valid insofar as the logic of proper nouns, but it's glaringly obvious it's a mistranslation.
winteravarice
And there is something else that debunks that theory of yours: "sphilar" is written in katakana as スフィーラ (check the Hymmnoserver), while "Sphilia" is written as スフィリア (check the Extra menu in the JP version of AT2), so they're clearly different words, despite being derived from the same root (sphere), and EXEC_SPHILIA/. is the original title used in the JP AT2 and in the tracklists of the Hymmnos Concerts. Ergo, no mistranslation here. Or are you going to say you think you know the game's world better than the people who made it?
...so impresed... can't write... feelings... amazed.
..... it takes me a lot of listening but this song is basically Jacqli conversing with Luca and tell her that they're the same right!? Damn Jacqli's development and I think she can't climb the best waifu ladder even higher......
I shall make this theme of 1st Boss, King Fossil in Dariusburst
It's "Phira", not that horrible typo NISA decided to use instead. Additionally, actually Infel owes her own name to the server, according to how her life went.
So played in 2x speed, and besides for the glitches her and there, it sounds kinda cool.
wait this specific tune in the background, isn't that the exact same one they used in naruto? I swear it's the same
What?
4 years late but I get what you're talking about ....
This song feels as if your riding on an airship getting ready for the final Battle.
Any plans to make a video like this for EXEC_SUSPEND/.?
101 * (16 + 4) = ?
Gotta say... AT1 Mir: Sad, able to connect to. AT2: Young, Awesome, DEM LEGS, and....legal? Hope so *makes a mental note to add her to my imaginary harem comprised of all the anime/game girls I've taken a liking to and have connected to* XD jk
Kanethedragon Kanethedragon She's biologically 15 according to the codex. Around some centuries in rust time as shes been sealed. Don't know if Reyvateil Puberty works as humans'. Might need to trigger +Aquagon_drag for that.
@@C4lmaria shoudl've asked croic for that
I was so braindead for my Social Political Philosophy paper until I listened to this song. Now I am just writing like there is no tomorrow.
EXEC_SPHILIA/. FTW.
Oops. Just looked at your channel...judging from your background, it looks like you've noticed Ar Tonelico 3 already...
I got a copy of firts Ar Tonelico to PS2, but, how can I find the others two games to PC? please, can someone help me?
Kyzer MC The third game came on PS3, You could probably play the original with a PS2 emulator if you're trying to get them for PC
What language are they speaking?
Not sure if it's there own language from the game.
Or Japanese?
Hymmnos.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned how similar this soundtrack is to nier automata's soundtrack
I was hoping for Noriko Mitose to sing more songs in the next games but really....it saddens me to hear her singing one song in each games....like At Tonelico III and Ode to the unborn 🌟 😒
1:45 - 1:50
Why does this sound so strangely arousing?
It does not
ok, I love the song, but what's with the stupid character pose
It has no relationship at all to the song.
