So, what my takeaway from this is, is that Hiroyuki Sawano is simultaneously an asshole, a sadist, and a genius.

0:08 We made it everyone, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition on the Nintendo Switch, it's real!! :D

[nuke]

Other composers: writes song titles easy to remember.

Hiroyuki sawano: sits on keyboard.

18:37 For shironotairiku - the white content, also kuronotairiku - the black continent, they are both opposites of each other. 6 flipped is 9 which is mirrored vertically, 9 is then mirrored into p which is a horizontal flip -> this is the absolute opposite of 6 into 9 into p. So, when comparing the opposite colors of white and black, while seen as opposites, they are also seen as a yin yang which leads to a balance.

There is no way Sawano himself looks at these titles and goes “ah yeah that’s Lao’s theme”. Great video

[jiyou]

genuinely such an amazing video overall. and i'm not just saying this as your friend; i'm sincerely saying this as someone who just likes to watch well-made video essays on stupid game knowledge, and this is by all means a well-made video essay on stupid game knowledge!!

[may]

Wow this was such a clean and well-put together video!!

When I tell you that I audibly gasped at the first translation cleanly unraveling into “White Continent” lmaoo I had a feeling they were some sort of cypher but after just staring at them for so many years to finally get what they mean was so cool

[whited]

7 years?!




Great video by the way.

[totalradlad]

I don't know why I waited so long to watch this video, but I'm so glad that I did. Thanks for deciphering this man's goofy naming scheme for me and others that were not able to ascend to his higher level of track title creation.

[indianruckus]

Waiting for the next Sawano track to just be in morse code so that when its translated it becomes some elaborate meaning that only soldiers figured

[cosmicmoonfrost]

This was a great video. I love Xenoblade X, it definitely deserves another lease of life on the Switch. Thanks again, really enjoyed this!

-totally didn't forget to comment when I first watched the video- It's been awesome to see this passion project of a video come together, and the end result is excellent! Definitely going to be linking this whenever someone asks about the XCX track titles from now on.

[dophirus]

That was a very good video ! I'm very happy that we finally have a serious video on this subject.
I'd like to see you explain other soundtracks as well, but I don't have any preferences. So if you want to do another video like that, please take your time and do something you love.
Thank you for being such a good content creator and member in the Sawano Hiroyuki community ! :D

[lizardwizar]

Please do Mare, Ao no exorcist, Koutesujou no kabaneri and Thunderbolt fantasy. Finally a good video related to Sawano that isn't only a compilation of epic music or an essay about his Aot soundtrack, based.

[KaiAfterKai]

I'm a big fan of Sawano's titles, they've actually informed the way I title my own songs quite a bit ^^ I really liked this video, would love to see more in this vein. Definitely subbing.

[nathaniel]

I saw someone reference this video in a xenoblade x remix so I had to check it out. This is really well done and informative, so thank you for the explanation on these titles

[Tom-]

Was at the back of my mind since looking up Wir Fliegen, interesting!

[joeyjose]

These titles send 😭 WHAT WAS THE REASON… it’s confusing in an interesting way at least! It would be so satisfying to have a playlist on YouTube with the titles as explained in this video

[stampylongnoah]

Welp, time to continue listening to this soundtrack with this knowledge in mind till the day I die.

[maxmaus]

Just found this, never played Xenoblade but Sawano is responsible for the soundtracks of a lot of my favorite anime, namely Kill La Kill and approximately half the 86. I had thought of goroawase as the solution for a couple of the themes in those shows, but I'd love to see an analysis of the reading and meaning of more of such stuff.
