Escalate | NieR:Automata Ver1.1a OP [ENGLISH COVER]

A fleeting hope or certain despair's all that waits for me. Check out Megami33's newest cover from NieR:Automata Ver1.1a OP, "Escalate!":D

On to the second cover of the year! I'm a bit sadden to hear the show is being delayed till further notice, but as a fan of the games, I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. This opening was quite interesting to translate though. Aaron was basically saying it's super emo, which it is but Japanese poetry always goes the extra mile on explaining how depressed/hopeless someone can be. The theme fits the game/show very well though. There is a hopelessness in this world and fighting to try to better the world may just be a dream to the characters. Won't say much more, but I hope you enjoy this cover! :)

I thought the opening was interesting before I knew what the lyrics are. This is just as existential as I was expecting. Beautiful work!

Also, that bonus bit at the end was absolute fire.

[Matayu]

Love this game, and I’m very intrigued about how the anime is going to turn out considering they’ve already started making tiny deviations from the game’s events. Lovely cover, thank you for making it!

[RetroNerdyGamer]

When the show deviates and is still good. This is amazing and I hope hiatus ends soon!
Also, this feels like just another "ending" or "path" that things could've gone. Unless I'm misunderstanding lol

[RafaelNguyenAlvarez]

I hope the makers of the anime feel better soon. It's one of my favorite series of the winter season.
