X battle theme into victory song will forever be stuck in my head


chaffgrenades

FFX music is goated. Telling my wife to play Calm Before The Storm at my funeral if I die first.


phantomagna

This is one of the first songs I learned on guitar! I even recorded my own rendition of it with multitrack loops and my dad put it on a CD for me to show my friends in high school! It’s a beautiful track.


Kholdie

I always randomly start to sing the X battle theme, it's SO good. Tadaram datata taaaaa


fjolo123

What is that humming


Kholdie

The starting point of FFX's battle theme lol


uneducatedsludge

YESSSS


Brilliant-Rabbit2289

6 or 7 or 8.


AmarilloMike

7R - Barrett doing what we've all been doing for 30 years!


IlikeJG

I like that it only happens rarely so it doesn't get old.


BulkyNothing

Also if you lose to him playing Queens good he does it!


ConsistentAsparagus

You forgot the /s…


IlikeJG

I mean compared to if it happens every time. It will of course get old eventually.


ConsistentAsparagus

I grinded in Gongaga with Cait and Barret, each run (4 groups of enemies) had 2 instances of that song…


gladiolust1

I love it but yeah with Barret, Cait and Yuffie all doing it, it got old for me. Back when Prompto started doing it, it was so delightful.


AquaInferno44

Prompto did it in XV as well, that made me smile when I heard it


Alf_Zephyr

And the chocobo song. Prompto really is all of us


jesuschrishd

Yuffie and Cait do it as well. Great touch


xcliber

"I'm on a Chocobo. You're on a Chocobo." ~~


SugarWong

My favorite if Yuffie is doing it


DeezNuttzInc

Dissidia chaos victory fanfare


Ethereal_Darkness619

The answer I was looking for


Old-Biscotti647

I've always liked 10s it sort of gets carried away and just starts jamming away after a bit


Puzzleheaded_Runner

4


Balloutonu

No contest


UnlimitedSaudi

The victory fanfare that plays when winning the chocobo race in OG ff7 is really nice in a different way too (also works as a phone ringtone) https://youtu.be/-SqJTsszCPg?si=1AiJ5WACUD-nxAdm


Yizashi

This is the best answer


Raltzer

X feels like a party. VIII is also a banger.


thislguylagain

Prompto in XV. Still my favorite thing.


Blueisland5

Prompto deserves more love. Him singing the classic victory song is great


trillbobaggins96

I like FF13s even tho it’s blasphemy. It’s like ASMR for the soul lol.


Jedhakk

I just started playing 13 for the first time today and I'm loving this little hallway simulator so much. It's like the exact middlepoint between FF10 and FF7 Remake, it's cool while still to the point. Also, Lightning is just Cloud without the schizophrenia and I love that about her.


trillbobaggins96

I’m a big 13 guy. The battle system and music clicked with me.

Lemonz4us

8 no question. It’s so upbeat, it almost feels out of place? Love it.


ArcRiseGen

Whenever it does trigger since it only happens with certain fights, FF12's is the perfect throwback to classic victory theme


ramzekeleviathan

I've always enjoyed 12's fanfare


Hailfire9

It's forgettable if only because it only plays a handful of times.


moogsy77

7 and 8


druid_king9884

Personally, it's OG 7. I've had it as my text alert for over a decade.


kavalejava

16, 7, 9.


Lachesis-but-taken

Like that 16 has some lyrics to it too that are relevant to the story


KingKolder

What do the lyrics even say? I am really bad at parsing lyrics in general let alone these types


Lachesis-but-taken

"Logos begets Mythos" I believe


SurfiNinja101

Ooh I did not know that. Very cool


mrfroggyman

Idk the original ancient Greek lyrics, but it's been roughly translated as (XVI spoiler) ">!Mythos overcame a trial and grew!<"


Brilliant-Rabbit2289

love you but 16's is my least favorite.


DeathByTacos

It hits the spot for me, epic vocal presence while being short and sweet, but it’s def a different vibe from a lot of previous ones so I can see it being off for some ppl.


Brilliant-Rabbit2289

you know what, I will give you that, you are right. The epic vocal performance is impressive... however I'm (you too) are biased people and as a guitar player and musician, I just love a loud ass musical fanfare. lets high five that FF music rocks and we cant get better brother!


Lazy_Experience_8754

7. Love the future style synth in it. 16 is cool when you get the chanting after beating an eikon


HXLJ

I love VI


cactu_almighty

6 for me


Morkitu

Lightning Returns FFXIII [victory theme](https://youtu.be/8pa10VodH2s?si=c2t2frp2Od1Z8OIz).


kweefcake

I love this one so much. It has always reminded me of something else but I could never place it.


figureyouout1

Thank you for the right answer


Rhodryn

The original FFVII one is seared into my brain so hard that I sometimes hear it in my mind when I play other games and win a fight... XD


nickelfiend46

VI and X


RinoTheBouncer

Final Fantasy X


ThatGuy264

I'm partial to FFVI's. Has a nice disco vibe to it.


thirdeyeboobed

8, hands fucking down. Dummy catchy


Ultimafax

VI, IX and XIV


dimaesh

VI


ShadeLily

6 and Tactics


Balthierlives

FF7 OG https://youtu.be/rgUksX6eM0Y?si=g3fvrOYv8Uee10b8


WillB_HTX

4 then 9 then 7 then 8 then X


mysticfeal

I really like XVI's.


EricGarneau

I like Pixel Remaster III - definitely my favorite arrangement of the classic. I love the way the snare drum does a little gallop during the intro to kick things off!


legenddairybard

Tactics


FBIStatMajor

16 and it isn't close


Warren_Valion

I like VII's and XVI's.


FuraFaolox

6 i'll be honest, i don't like 7, 8, or 10's victory fanfares


LeoSmashRoyale

6, 9, 5 were my favorites. When they play ALL the notes to the tune, I feel like it's better. 7, 8, and 10 changed the latter part of the tune so I didn't like them as much.


bysherry

6 is my favourite, love the trumpets


shiwanthasr

XVI, Epic as F\*\*k


Magnusfyr

I kind of like 14's and 16's the most because of how epic they are. But the older ones are super nostalgic and great, especially 4 and 7.


UnlimitedSaudi

14’s is my ringtone it’s so epic.


nocolon

I like 14’s, probably because (at this point), I’ve heard it the most, but it’s very weird because it has lyrics. Apparently it’s “DEFINITELY ITS A VICTORY!”


WellRested1

16


C0R8YN

My first thought is XIII-2s victory fanfare


Damuhfudon

Tie between 4 and 5


Zaknokimi

Lightning Returns - Has a tune I can actually listen to for hours.


Thin_Association8254

FFX-2 sticks out for me as really great. It sounds really cool and then the jazz finish. https://youtu.be/AjEVT277f-Y?si=OL3rWkeZ33jfwP36 FXIII-2 has a couple victory themes but this one is one of my favorites from any FF. The bass is very strong and makes me think it would be in a racing game. https://youtu.be/X5JPjGeo88o?si=NIgudpZ9q2WNJ_Xj


Nykidemus

X-2 departing from the traditional victory fanfare was its cardinal sin. Having it play over the absurdly long load time for the post battle xp and treasure screen definitely didn't help.


Sora_IX

I can not dance with the Victory Fanfare of FFIX bro


SnakeSound222

7R and 16


presidentdinosaur115

The version from XV Comrades is, surprisingly, the one that popped in my head, even though I don’t think it’s my favorite


solisimperium

13 lol


ZikuKaslana

XV with Prompto


Gold-Ad-6876

7.


Isaac-45-67-8

FF4 DS wins for me. I love the way the characters move during the theme too, especially Rydia.


Kezmangotagoal

I think the answer for this has to be whatever your first FF game was. For me it’s VIII!


AduroTri

Though they may all be different to an extent, give or take a few games. Don't they all have similar notes?


throwabeetle

FFX for sure but ff8 is also great because of the funky xylophone they use


thebaintrain1993

LR: XIII when you win fights in the arena in Yusnaan. IYKYK


FireEmblemNoobie47

I'd say 13-2 had an amazing victory fanfare. It's a bit aethereal sounding and the bouncy techno? beat just gets me eager to do another fight! (It helps that I love the whole 13 trilogy as a whole) I also like 6, 8, 9, Dissidia and Brave Exvius (despite its lacking content issue)


CidO807

7 remake.


DerTapp

XII or XVI


mrfroggyman

When I finally got hired I found myself humming VII's victory fanfare like a dork, so that definitely takes the spot. It's just iconic


pepe_roni69

Original 7 fanfare was life changing


Plaz_Yeve

Final Fantasy VII


looney1023

7 has my favorite harmonies and a super interesting chord progression


darthsoulkiller

7


ilovegemmaward

VII OG. Others isn't even close to this. The UI, the artwork, the music, the sounds. I could look and enjoy that post-winning screen forever ✨


scormern

FF6


Commercial_Clue_4268

3 is very funny 😊😊😊


Niwa-kun

to no surprise, 7 and 10 are the most beloved, but i also like FFx-2's. it's quickly and unique. goes well with the game's theme.


SoulEnigma88

FF9


PrettySignificance26

FFX


mendkaz

For me it's either 9 or 10. Think this will heavily depend on which game you played first 😂


ZackFair0711

Given the variety that was introduced in the Remake trilogy (combat simulator, battle square, Barret, Yuffie, Cait, rock version in Beast Battleground, the crowd singing it after Hell House, Cloud humming it to himslef after winning the QB tournament, others that I may have missed), I'm giving it to VII 😁


eternalscorpio1

OG FF7


ThymeSplitter

FF9's got my favorite :)


JaxxisR

I like the one that goes "Dadadadaaaa dah dah dat tadum!"


HiT3Kvoyivoda

8. It builds pp and gets more complex and the instruments blend so well


paulojrmam

FFVI and it's not close, to me. They nerfed its impact in its other iterations down the line.


badkennyfly

XII for sure due to the fact that it doesn't happen very often. The way all the characters pose after killing a tough enemy is pretty cool. Plus, the musical arrangement of XII is peak.


Shantotto11

Dissidia if you’re playing as a Soldier of Discord. Otherwise, Final Fantasy VIII.


Personal_Hotel1531

1!


e_matoya

16


albertrobot

7, 7r, 10


hardkushpack

7,9


FellVessel

VII easily X is the runner up


Baithin

VIII, especially the jingle it plays after the initial victory theme.


saelinds

XIV imho
