Best VGM 193 - Okami - Shachimaru's Theme (Orca)

[ShiranuiRises]

Shachimaru is Orca's Japanese name.

I loved Orca, but I was always accidentally calling him Porca because of those dumb kids -_-

[CoJaPo100]

To everyone who says that there hasn't been a genuinely original game since the SNES era, here's what I want you to do.

1. Get a copy of Okami.

2. Play it all the way through.

3. Put the disk back in the case when you're done, and shove it up your ignorant ass as punishment for your stupidity.

[Flexiorn]

@CoJaPo100 Maybe have them use an SNES game instead- Wouldn't want them damaging an Okami disc.

[xceis]

I adore this game in it's entirety. It's just so fucking good. Music, art, story, EVERYTHING

[Mindasphyxiation]

Whoa, nice track!

[MiddleTRE]

I agree with you kirbychan the song is so beautiful that it make your eyes all teary

[KirbyChan]

And how in the world could someone dislike this song?!

[Lang50]

@KirbyChan just be glad it's only one person. makes it easier to track them down >:} lol

[KirbyChan]

I LOVE THIS MUSIC. It's so beautiful! I'm literally getting teary eyed here just by listening to it. One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard....~

[DarkMatterCrow]

inb4 chuggaconroy sent me here.

[triforceman1000]

@DarkMatterCrow Ha me too :)

[DarkMatterCrow]

@triforceman1000 No. He didn't send me here. I listen to this often, it's just now Chuggaaconroy got to that part in the game everyone is going to come here and go HURRRRRR CHUGGACONROY SENT ME LOL DURRRRR.

[SirZidane]

@DarkMatterCrow this is such bullshit. Why does a famous LPer have to do the game before people notice it? what's wrong with the world? why must Okami be the "best game you never played" instead of "one of the best games of all time"?

[GodTangrowth]

The Water Dragon seriously terrified me while out at sea. Thankfully, this song was there to express the magnificence of the untouched sea.

[KirbyChan]

@GodTangrowth Omg I totally agree. The Water Dragon freaked me out big time. I was so happy that Orca could outswim it but still. At least this music was there to cheer me up and be beautiful in a beautiful world.

[blulaguna18]

i think this music is when you ride on the whale to go to other islands, like the island with the Cat Tower.

[v3rrine]

Shachimaru is the orca.

[residentdanix123]

ORCA RULES!!!!!!!!

[dameronWolf]

It´s so great to meet another okami fan I mean it´s the best game that ever exist!

[PcCAvioN]

sony and nintendo have made some of the best soundtracks over. thank god for the japanese =P

[dragonfyre1735]

Shachimaru :D

For those who don't know, he's Orca in the English version.

[MrGloutube]

haha thx a lot for bringing me here chuggaa ^-^

[PokeBound]

Heh, how many people were sent here by chuggaaconroy? This is really nice!

[kelvin1262]

This is pretty much the best video game song ever made.

But I don't really like Okami that much.

[sigh12346]

ty chuggaconroy for sending me here (also f*** you to that one person who hates this music)

[super3dcow]

Oh man, the part with Orca is one of my favorite parts in the game, mainly because of this fantastic song.

[laurence185]

yes okami is the best game ever made,gorgeous music to

[dx619hey]

Okami is awesome, wooh! I got annoyed of this theme though, but listening to the whole thing makes it sound better. I just constantly heard that beginning part which annoyed me, with the Sea monster approaching and leaving and me jumping off and back on.

Sounds like Wind Waker's "Great Ocean" though, doesn't it?

[Silverties]

Best game of Capcom, along with Megaman X and Phoenix Wright series

[stefer23]

Hooray for riding on whales! XD

[MusikLP]

Makes me think about Mario Galaxy and Zelda Wind Waker : )<3

[bushwhacker2k]

Ooo, epic sounding, kinda makes me think of Zelda in some ways.

[The0rangeCow]

Reminds me a bit of Wind Wakers boat theme

[GazeRock12094]

Okami has got to be the greatest game ever made!!!

[anjoolamusic]

Agreed!!

[stacetheface47]

i have to agree with you on that okami is my favorite game of all time.

[alabzam]

Indeed it is.

[TheSammyadd]

What? That's the same thing everyone says about their favourite game. You can't prove it.

[HamuSumo]

That is art!

[EchoesOfArt]

Wow, this song is amazing. The entire game and its' music was beautiful.

[spider5600]

I love this game and the music why did people buy Fifa football and not this. Its a shame that clover had to go bust

[AKSsasori]

@spider5600 most of Clover was reborn in Platinum Games, who has awesome games like Bayonetta and Madworld.

[vezok247]

@spider5600

Blame soccer.



[Toomnyusernae]

Capcom never stops to impress me.

[raptor273]

not Capcom. Eff Capcom. Its Hideki Kamiya and Clover Studio b4 they got absorbed by the Capcom ogre.

[Toomnyusernae]

I remember Clover Studio in the trailers now that you mention it .-. Still, amazing.

[ryo464]

シャチ丸はカワユスなｖ

この曲もいい曲!!元気が出てくる!!

[darkmidna]

Great game, great music!

[UPSbro]

:) Love this one too! The beginning of the song kinda reminds me of Zelda: Wind Waker. :D

[twilighttory511]

me to.

i love this games. okami and zelda. <3

[ShiroCzerni]

I love the art style and music in Okami. The game has a relaxed feeling to it for me, and the music enhances the experience.

[EXEGUNSO]

god okami was such a good game(weeps).

[ScrunchyFundoshi]

such a beautiful song, I should really get back to playing Okami; I never beat it.

[charliechip95]

You should! lol! =D

[MisterDominoX]

Yay! Great game!

Okami is, IMO, a true work of art. This is a game that, in a sea of popular titles, dared to be uniquely Japanese. I think it sends a powerful message about the spiritual appeal of nature.

I'm glad that it met with such a favorable reception in the West.

[theinsanething]

Favourable reception, but poor sales.

[Sephiko]

lol, you picked my old desktop picture (I'm using a different Okami pic now)

I forget who Shachimaru even is, since it's been a such long time for me. I liked that song in credits, and one of the ambient cave ones.

[SupraDarky]

I am not sure myself (I don't remember), but I think it's the dragon (?) you can ride on the ocean at some point in the game. Correct me anyone if I'm wrong.

[littlecuteangel112]

ya mean when u ride orca to find the dragonains domain right?

[TheDancingWolfs33]

@SupraDarky Its a dolphin you make friends with in the game. o;

I never really rememeber the dolphin, but when Im remimded then I rememeber.

[darthmamdouh]

@SupraDarky It's actually the Orca you can ride to get to the Dragon Palace (if my memory serves me right, since it's been ages). I actually started playing Okami on the Wii again recently and I have to say, although the grahpics have aged quite a bit (we're so used to HD now), this magnificent game hasn't lost an iota of its magic and its charm, and I think the OST is one of the main reasons why I still enjoy running endlessly across Shinshuu Fields...

[wetterdew]

His name is Orca in the English version.

[dameronWolf]

@Sephiko Sachimaru is a orca.

[xPopokillaXX]

@Sephiko It's Orca, the blue baluga whale that you ride on and it takes you down to the Dragon Palace. Shachimaru is the Japanese name.

[Sephiko]

@xPopokillaXX I got an answer 2 years ago, but thanks anyways :)

[JustMush]

@Sephiko

i wanted to thank you for my new desktop picture :)

[JegalZero]

Personally I really like Oki's Theme.

[Turner4590]

I think that any of Waka's songs are the best in the game. I also love the Final Boss Music ( Part 2 )

Its called " The Sun Rises "
