Soul Nomad & the World Eaters/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • A really odd CMOA is in the last stages of the Demon Path. Everyone is united and blades ready, speeches launched, their reasons to fight inspiring them to see this to the very end. It's what you'd hope what would happen in the Normal Path, and it pretty gives even the butt monkeys levels in badassery. The twisted part comes from the fact that they're united against you.
    • Dannette's reaction, if you lose, is especially awesome. She's sealed with you in the eternal prison, and sings to you.
  • The fight with Raksha. The whole thing is awesome, but the icing on the cake was the moment This Troper waited the whole game for:
  • The final moments of the Normal Path. Drazil and the Gods of Life and Death, after defeating them in the final battle, are Not Quite Dead yet and to spoil your victory, they summon copies of themselves and blow one of your more powerful allies away. Even Revya with the extra power she gained from defeating Gestahl cannot stand against them, so what does she do? She finally decides to take Gig up on his deal and give up her body to Gig in exchange for the power to defeat the gods. What follows is the scene that firmly cements Gig as Nippon Ichi's biggest badass.
  • The fight with Raksha in Soul Nomad and The World Eaters. The whole thing is awesome, but the icing on the cake starts at 8:15:

Endorph: Burning soul! Awaken the sleeping beast! The power of truth...Psycho Burgundy!

    • The final moments of the Normal Path. Drazil and the Gods of Life and Death, after defeating them in the final battle, are Not Quite Dead yet and to spoil your victory, they summon copies of themselves and blow one of your more powerful allies away. Even Revya with the extra power he / she gained from defeating Gestahl cannot stand against them, so what does he / she do? He / she finally decides to take Gig up on his deal and give up his / her body to Gig in exchange for the power to defeat the gods. What follows is the scene that firmly cements Gig as Nippon Ichi's biggest Badass.

Gig: Oh, don't think for a second that I'm alone. You've seen the battles before. I've got plenty of idiots begging me to summon them into battle. There's exactly zero chance of us losing to a bunch of has-beens like you!
Danette: Gig...
Drazil: You have much to learn, child. Now, to battle!
Gig: You don't gotta tell me twice! Your ass is mine!
Revya: Let's go!
Danette: Yeah! We can do it!
Gig: You're DEEEAAAAD!

And with one swift swing of his scythe, Gig kills all three gods. That's right, three gods fell to a single Master of Death that's been confined to a sword for the entire game in one swipe. All set to Gig's Theme Music Power-Up Rock 'N Rocks.
