What I love about Boiling Blood is that its sung by Cristina Vee, who happened to also end up being her EN VA.

iirc if you take the main menu bgm of the event (the ones with glitch sound) and put it in the official EP (with visual glitches), the glithces are matching.

Little fun facts about Suzuran: real name is Lisa, her mom is a member of a mafia family in Siracusa ( the local equivalent of Italy) and her dad is a temple worker in Higashi ( the local equivalent of Japan). That's why she has 9 littletails - genes from her daddy ☺

love your theorizing and telling your thoughts during songs! music around arknights is amazing as always... from this bunch my favourite is Lily of the valley, i love this kind of music. thanks for the reaction!

@Trailblazer_Ririna

Ай бұрын

I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my theorizing and my thoughts! Lily of the Valley is def a beautiful piece of music. It's a journey that I actually think back on from time to time, even though I recorded this a while ago -- and have yet to play the actual event story for her.

2:20 ==> Dancing Ririna Bagpipe is strong and helps instant using skill for all Vanguards, as soon as they are put down, when she is within your squad. ;) 21:48 ==> WARNING: Do not be fooled by the happy music, the music is there to alleviate the dark event story, when you come back in-between there!!! ==> For me the music reminds me more of circus/military music!!! You need the bright music in-between! All others joined as well. Rosa, Zima and with this current event with Degenbrecher, you get Leto to officially play as well Leto. Nice notice of the one behind her, which as well joined together with the 3 others as playable operator, Istina. This EP lifts my spirits when I just hear the music. 25:18 ==> Suzuran belongs to the Twilight of Wollumonde event. Emperor = Penguin (Penguin Logistic: Emperor, Texas, Exusai, Sora,...) And this is part 2, part one check out "Arknights EP - ManiFesto" there you get everything! ==> Manifesto, was part of the "Ambience Synesthesia 2021". 35:00 ==> In the original Obsidian Festival event one could choose between 3 groups and get then a furniture part of what one has chosen, along with different story tidbits. 37:30 ==> These 3 music where 'teasers' since with voices etc one got later on. However, without the voice I vote 1: Alive until sunset; 2: DDD; 3: Emperor Love again you bobbing/chairdancing to the music! I for one recommend that some of your discord or so sort for you those EPs of the events you have already played along with operators you have met already in the story.

@@Trailblazer_Ririna Not telling you. Told you enough without being too spoilery. ;p

wow your guess on Suzuran EP is quite close even out of context (if I remember correctly because it's an old event) it's a bit underrated because it doesn't have vocals on it, but it is one of the electronic styles that I liked I'm a metal kid so Alive Until Sunset is more my taste I listen to the BGM subconsciously, but if somehow the BGM piques my interest, I need to stop whatever I'm doing and just take a listen for a while. It's to decide if the song gonna be on the playlist or not. But most of the characters EP isn't in the game tho

It is?!? That makes me pretty happy to hear. I guess they did a good job with reflecting her journey or whatever it is that happened during the event for this EP in that case. I quite like this one! Very interesting to listen to! Seems like a lot of people like Alive Until Sunset out of the 3!

My fav is definitely AUS when it comes to the Obsidian Fest music.

@@Trailblazer_Ririna on oficial chanel they split them in different playlists. But because of that its harder to find right order.

36:15 - Fun fact: Alive Until Sunset (in-universe band name) is directly inspired by the real world band "Dead by Sunrise" (notice the Antonym-like name) which was a band founded by Chester, the (former) lead vocalist of Linkin' Park. He passed on the same year that Arknights launched, and it is presumed by the community that they are a sort of tribute to him, since there are many references / winks to things related to either him, Linkin Park or Dead by Sunrise.

Yeah...Children of Ursus is...something

3:20 there is one also another one that fits awesome with rwby. Come to light by Jeff williams, but i think its copyrighted (dont know where to check this though), so i think you cant watch it as a reaction 5:50 res ops team a1 on shopping spree 7:40 maybe it resembles the feeling of a gust by moving around a lot 14:30 the one from solitary journey is explained in the vignette event "stories of afternoon - the wanderers home" 15:30 she sure is a bright spirit. more i cant say, until you played at least ch9. 17:00 the soft instrument is a kind of flute, the loud instrument is a bagpipe (btw this operators codename is bagpipe) 19:40 the other operators with gummy are five star and up, i think, hence you didnt see them often, their story is in the vignette event children of ursus 28:00 emperor is a wrapper who performed on the obsidian festival and also the boss of penguin logistics, code of brawl goes further into this 32:50 by liking ready definitely 1st, then emperor, then alive until sunset. i'm not that much into hard rock. but for playing order i would switch AUS's and emperors's song, cause emperors song is like rolling over the enemies after taking them apart. some of youre predictions of charaters were quite on point, wont tell you which or how many were correct, though.

I’m amazed that even some of my guesses were right about the characters though. 😆 On one hand, it does make me happy. On the other hand, it shows just how good they composed the music to reflect the characters and their stories!

Fun fact, lots of parts of Arknights is inspired by RWBY, like the whole infected shtick, not to mention a lot of the musical talent ended up making songs for Arknights and DillonGoo, who was an animator for RWBY season 3 and onward, made that "Where Vernel Winds never blow" animation!
