  • To tell the truth, out of the original 10 final fantasy villains, the only ones who weren't focused on total destruction were Garland, Jecht and Golbez. Garland wanting to rule the earth and to be immortal upon becoming chaos. Jecht was a good guy until he lost his sanity as the final aeon, and golbez filled with regret and hate at not being able to find the light cecil had. The rest have their own tale of meek-to-power-to-destroyer told slightly differently per time used.

  • And Kuja was flamboyant and destroy a large part(or a segment if you prefer) of one planet and had plans for another's demise, but ultimately couldn't fully challenge the hero's as they stop him and necron becomes the big bad.

  • The way I see it, each villains acts are completely different. Exdeath destroyed, but he was an ancient spirit, and he began with the power he had. Kefka had nothing and sky rocketed to power then proceeded to torment the entire world, but the heroes were focused on Gestahl and the empire up until the very point Kefka got all his mighty power. Sephiroth was a huge imitation of kefka, but he had higher depth and character story to go with him.

  • @Androzolan Sephirot an imitation of Kefka..., Sephirot have a "higher depht and character history to go with him"? where, the history of Sephirot is empty, totaly empty, by the other hand, FFVI in general, and particulary Kefka is Full of Historical/Artistical aplications, Kefka's name, come from Kafka's the writer, have you ever read a book or a writing of him?, you must, you maybie understand why Kefka was designed like he is, if u understand the style of writing of Kafka's

  • @Androzolan Kefka's go insane not instantly, he turn insane after Celes situation remember?, he progresevly becomes each time more evil, each time more insane and each time stronger.

    When he become a "GOD" the image he use is the image used to him is the one of one domination, they have 4 wings, like the ones represented in kefka (acording to the bible) and that was the tipe of angel than the traitor angel was, before be expelled from paradise.

  • @obsdark And just in the final boss, there is an entire reference to Dante's divine comedy, each one of the stages represent the Hell, the Purgatory and the Heaven, but in a tree way... it's intresting, kefka represent a VERY DEEPER enemy than Sephirot, Sephirot is just a Nihilistic unable to suicide himself and who have a sword, there's nothing intresting or Deep on him, sorry.

  • Dude, Golbez could woop his ass

  • In the realm of gaming mechanics, Kefka is the only true evil character ever made in FF. Others have been Neutral Evil, but Kefka is Chaotic Evil, which makes him the ultimate badass. He may not be the best or favorite bad guy in the FF series, but he is hands down the most evil. You can't top pure evil, and that is Kefka.

  • Shameless tagging oh wow :P

  • @LupalFillyus Yeah I guess this song is in every single Final Fantasy who would have known.

  • The best part about finally confronting Kefka and hearing this score is the feeling of hopelessness it instills, as if all is already lost.

  • @Pharphain THEY DONT COMPARE AT ALL RETARD

  • @dkcmaster45 Are you angry because Skyrim is better? Lawl Rage moar pl0x

  • @Pharphain no and i have no intent on starting a flame war so have your opinion.Even though most of us here know whats better.

  • Kefka: Nothing matters. Destroy it all.

    Sephiroth: Waaah, my mother was a comet.

  • Kefka is satan. This has to be the first game that made me feel like "omg" when he poisened the water. The music is just awesome!

  • Honestly, what it comes down to is Sephiroth is a better character (backstory and stuff,) But as a villain, Kefka is a million times better, because they didn't need to give him a backstory, the bottom line was fucking evil, and he loved it

  • Not bad, but a lot of it just isn't Kefka enough. It needs a lot more pipe organ, especially in the third movement; it needs all of the final movement; the tempo in a lot of places needs to be sped up.

  • 画像の題名つけるなら

    「腹のしまっているケフカ」

    で決まりかなw

  • The last part made me cry a little... This is the most beautiful version of Dancing Mad I've ever heard.

  • Kefka has got one devil's wing.

  • モンハンにありそう

  • Meanwhile in Jidoor, life goes on.

  • @Reaf3289 FFIX Kuja destroyed 2 worlds

  • @crimsonbok And was a whiny, xenophobic, emo-tastic s/hemale dick about it, too. While Kefka was just frickin' nuts/badass. Hmm...nihilist psychopath vs. gender-confused pussy with abandonment issues?

    Nihilist win.

  • @danyetman Whoa man, I was just clarifying facts. Now I have no idea how you got the idea that I was saying one villain was better than another but you could have said how Kefka basically became god or has a cult following. However, considering you have to resort to name calling to prove your point, you just give Kefka fans a bad name.

  • @crimsonbok WOW, you're an idiot. I was making fun of Kuja, not you. Kuja was a piss-poor villain...one that was even worse than Oedipal Sephy. Clearly, you didn't bother to actually read my comment, or, if you did, you clearly didn't comprehend it. Not my problem.

  • @danyetman You can go on insulting Kuja or whoever as far as i care. But if you must to go around making fun of characters and whatnot, at least have facts to back up your claim.

  • @crimsonbok Okay...because that was relevant or anything. You've just jumped on the USS Crazytown now. Blocked.

  • @danyetman Wow I'm so thought.I blocked someone.

  • @crimsonbok Kuja didn't even destroy ONE world, fucking fool. He wrecked only PART of Terra, and never did anything of note on Gaia. You stop him at the Iifa Tree, after all, in Memoria.

  • @Xanatrix He largely destroyed Terra and was gonna destroy existence then necron was gonna destroy existence based on Kuja's decisions. 

  • @krat0s9001 Proof that commentators do not read. Did I not say he did nothing of note on Gaia because you STOP him? Or do you need that spelled out for you? And he didn't "largely" destroy Terra; He destroys a section of it, and damages others. But there are plenty of people remaining to rebuild it.

  • @Xanatrix The ultimania states he largely destroys Terra. Ultimania>your knowledge

  • @krat0s9001 However, canonical cutscene shows the epicenter and extent of his Ultima.

    Canon cutscene>Ultimania

  • @Xanatrix If thats the case then the flames caused by Ultima spread thus largely wrecking Terra.

  • @krat0s9001 Wrong again. I just watched that cutscene here.

    /watch?v=7WQiuYVNt3s

    He only destroys a very small part of Terra, only what he's close enough to see and hit with Ultima. Terra is ANOTHER PLANET, not just that fucking city.

  • @Xanatrix I just said that the Ultimania stated that he "largely destroyed Terra" You're the guy that told me that he only wrecked a section.

  • @krat0s9001 And I've provided proof that the Ultimania is incorrect by posting the cutscene in which he casts Ultima and starts wrecking Terra. He only wrecks the immediate vicinity, which is that city that the party explores in Terra. Terra is a whole planet, and you cannot say destroying one major city is "largely wrecking" an entire planet.

  • @Xanatrix You must have missed the cutscene when they're escaping.

  • @krat0s9001 No. That cutscene STILL doesn't show the WHOLE PLANET. It's still only Bran Bal and the surrounding area. You cannot say he destroyed all of Terra because of that. In fact, it's literally impossible for him to have remained at Terra to destroy it while you escape, because he gets to Gaia ahead of you, covering the world in Mist, and creating Memoria atop the Iifa Tree.

  • @Xanatrix Im done, you believe what you want and I'll believe what I know.

  • @krat0s9001 Empirical evidence from the game itself against the Ultimania guide. Well then, what you "know" is in error. I go with what is shown, what is actually done in game. Which is why science always trumps faith.

  • Sephiroth? What's that?

  • One thing thats Makes kefka better than sephiroth...Kefka destoryed the world..no ff villian ever managed to succeed doing that except..Kefka

  • Comment removed

  • @Reaf3289 Another thing that makes Kefka better than Sephiroth... Kefka was f**kin' insane!

  • @Reaf3289 exdeath did destroy a big part of it... and if re-mergng two worlds would count as destroying both, well he doubbled Kefka! (Kefka is still badass)

  • @Bastieneitsab Well if u really want to be legit..Jenova beats them all in the span of 1000 years shes destroyed planets before hitting earth

  • @Reaf3289 Jenova did not start out as a human with no magical power. Kefka went from normal human without magic, to Emperor's pawn with magic, to god of the world, to destroyer of the world. No other villain can say they've gone through such an epic transformation. Deceit, unpredictability, insanity, and lust for power is how he got ahead. If you think about it, he has way more characteristics/personality than most FF villains.

  • @Reaf3289 AND he became a god.

  • @Reaf3289 Kuja did. And Kuja, instead of Kefka, didn't leave anything alive in the planet he destroyed. Sure, Sephiroth is an overrated mama's boy, but this doesn't make Kefka immediately the best. Now of course, this is a "kefka's vid", i'll probably get many thumbs down, but think, would it be the same on a Kuja's one? It would be nice to comment without the influence of the "place".

  • @Reaf3289  actually he ruined the world and torment the people placed inside the world.

  • @Reaf3289 and became a god

  • @Reaf3289 Kuja too. well one world.

  • @Reaf3289 oh yeah and Lavos.

  • @Reaf3289 well kuja destroyed terra:D

  • homosexual signature. 

  • what a way to engulf in a video game . such epicness

  • what's that in the bottom left hand corner? 

  • @XXALLY1997X a signature! ;)

  • *moooooooooooooooan*

  • Orchestral is good choise but I think the organ is still most necessary instrument in this song.

  • This one I like

  • sugoi!

    Epic!

  • The greatest music in video game history... outta that crappy midi context. Better is Seperoth, but thats for another time. I only listen to heavy metal music, and this makes me feel great. Everyone should hear this!

  • This version you made sounds like a song from Asellus' scenario in Saga Frontier. In a good way!

  • This sounds like a song from Sigh.

  • 17mb??? holy crap

  • I think the only thing I don't like in it is just before the 2 minutes. The brass instrument doesn't quite work with that bit. I liked the organ in the origional there, because it really fit the madness of the tune. But the rest of it is amazing (with the exception of one or two sections which should be BELTED out, but that's hard to do in Software)

  • I got the download link and everything, but what I want is the sounds you use! >.< Lol I've been reproducing FF4 themes in FL Studio and I need new stuff.

  • I like how the chords at the end are higher than the chords at the beginning.

  • wait, for some reason i thought you could only remix songs with actual instruments, DERP, THIS IS 2011! WTH WAS I THINKING

  • it's so ironic that almost ever mother fucker in ff is an angel or higher being of type

  • @RevelationWarriors Not necessarily... While they need to achieve a level of stronger (because they usually end up fighting like 8 people) but FF1: Garland was a normal knight who was out of anguish was called into a cycle. FF2: The emperor was just a smart mage. FF4: Zemus was a lunarian, that is higher being but not that much. FF6: A man who went too close to magic and went crazy, FF7: Some child who was injected with some weird cells. *Shrugs*

  • @Rememberance123 Ehh... no arguments here :>)

  • @RevelationWarriors XD, sorry... now I feel like I threw facts at your face...... on the bright side... Kefka's completely insane and watches us sleep.

  • @Rememberance123 great! now i'll have more trouble sleeping. lol

  • @RevelationWarriors Well don't worry, he's always been there. So if you ever hear something creeky, it's just Kefka failing at being stealthy. *Nodnod* I leave cookies and milk for him every night.

  • @Rememberance123 so that's why my cereal always disappears... that bastard! he always be after me Lucky Charms! XD

  • @RevelationWarriors LOL, now I have a mental image of Kefka the Serial Killer / Cereal Stealer running around killing leprechauns for their lucky charms.... o.o.....

  • @RevelationWarriors FF1: Chaos was more like a demon/devil ins appearance. FF2: Emperor became both angel and devil. FF3: Naked chick. =D FF4: Amalgamation thing. O.o FF5: Tree, lol FF6: Our first true "angel" villain. FF7: The one-winged angel FF8: Has wings, never looked like an angel. FF9: Magic Monkey! No, I don't count Nemesis. FF10: A...sphere? So, only three angels in the "classic" FF series, and who started it? Kefka, actually. Emperor's angel form was added in later (Dawn of Souls).
  • @AkaiAzul hmmm... you didn't need to break it down, but hey good call

  • Beautiful. Truely amazing.

    Seriously, it seemed like the guys who make FF really put their all into Dancing Mad. Making 17 minutes long, four movements, all of which so diverse.

    I don't care what people say, this is the best FF final boss music. Screw One-Winged Angel.

  • did sephy become a god no kefka did he has been the ownlly villain to succeed in his plans

  • @kilkkiller exdaeth came pretty close to his plans as well

  • Comment removed

  • Best is an oppinion. Ultimeica is the strongest lol

  • Must... Cover... this... song!! <3 <3 <3

  • 6 isn't nearly as easy as 8 was and don't even get me started on 7 (monster materia FTW) 8 i beat at level 27 with squall zell and rinoa with curaga on everyones HP and Ultima On STR and Meteor on Vit also had all the ultimate weapons (Card game FTW) with renzokuken and beatdown you can kill any boss in the entire game with minimal damage taken (also beat omega but rinoa died on me like 7 times)

  • what version of fl did you use i dont know which one to get

  • @Nintendomanic Proof that people don't read the info pane.

  • @thepsynergist no i ment theres the fruity loop version the producers version and at least fore others in the shop thing which one did you choose

  • @Nintendomanic I just ended up getting the XXL Producers when I had the cash to do it. If you've the money, I'd get it.

  • @thepsynergist Hey, I know this is kind of offtopic, but thepsynergist, is your name a Golden Sun reference?

  • @Gilithus lolyeah. Best game ever. :P

  • @thepsynergist agreed

  • @thepsynergist Do many people even know of Golden Sun (GO ISAAC!!!)? I think Golden Sun deserves a little more attention than what its getting dont u agree?

  • @IsaacHead

    Actually, his last name means "Palace"

  • @mephiles17 ACTUALLY, it's Italian, meaning Plaza my Sister tells me. doesn't make much sense to me but, whatever.

  • @goodnobakes

    Palazzo means Palace.

  • @goodnobakes

    PALAZZO sound like "Payaso"that its clown in spanish

    kekfa palazzzo

    kefka payaso

    kekfa clown xD

  • Kefka is the best villain of all times.

  • I just kept spamming Ultima with everyone

  • Pretty neat :3

  • Kefka on the pic, "I see poser"

  • You know, it occurred to me and my girlfriend recently.

    Not only is Sephiroth the least successful Final Fantasy villain ever, Cefca (Kefka) is the most successful and most accomplished.

    Sephiroth wanted to take over/destroy the world, and tried three times. The only thing he accomplished was kill Aerith (Aeris) and that proved to be his undoing.

    Cefca managed to kill several gods, and conquer the world for more than a year before he was finally defeated. Also, his theme is beyond cool.

  • I like the way everyone pusses out trying to do the complex arrangments in the beginning of the fourth movement. I get sick of that.

    You stuck true to the whole song until that part, and then you skipped it -- out of nothing else I can see as anything but laziness!

  • This remix doesn't do the original justice. Lack of vocals, too quiet/soft, drums much too quiet and not powerful enough, and in particular 1:29 needs to sound more epic and fast paced like the Black Mages arrangement.

  • The FF7 fanboys fawn over One-Winged Angel, but this song truly is the most fitting for a final boss fight I have ever taken part in. Four movements for four different sections of the fight, and all of your characters available as you move from one phase to the next.

    Even though it wasn't all that difficult, no final boss is if you did the proper amount of level and magic grinding you should do.

  • I'm diggin' this. :)

  • such beautiful music, contrasts lovely to the fight that's actually going on.

  • VI was without a doubt the best one!

  • Fail, you totally skipped the part that makes the music, you epic fail sir.

  • two wings are missing

  • This song is nothing without the choir.

  • I spend each day praying the FF6 PS1 remake hits PSN...

  • This is pretty good, but you left out the best part!

  • Some of the samples don't sound super hot. The flute around 1:10 doesn't sound very good at all and the trilling flutes would test any sample.

    Good orchestration though. Some better samples would help. Maybe it's just YouTube.

  • Kefka having orgasm:

    *lifts his loin cloth*

    "LIGHT OF JUDGMENT!!!

  • @HerrQuixota hehe

  • @HerrQuixota I never played FF 6 but I though Kefka was sposed to be a clown, or is he more as the picture suggests?

  • @Grave0330

    He's a mage dressing up as a clown, but he takes this form at the game's final battle.

    Sorry for spoilers... :P

  • @thepsynergist

    Okay, thanks for the reply

  • @thepsynergist there is no such thing as spoilers to a 15 years old videogame :P

  • @thepsynergist he's also completely bonkers. But don't tell him that, or he'l hate hate hate hate hate hate hate HATE YOU!

    /end joke

    really nice job.

  • @thepsynergist It's not exactly a clown, though. He dresses in flashy, chaotic colors because he's crazy, but look at his face... More of a - slightly effeminate, maybe - madman than a clown.

  • @palgash - A lot like a harlequin jester or a dandy (think of late 17th-century gentlemen), actually.

  • @orangeblossom03 There we are : "dandy". That's the word I was looking for. A more crazy and on mushrooms dandy that there has ever been, but that's a fitting denomination nonetheless.

  • @thepsynergist Although I wouldn't say clown is the right term, more like a harlequin

  • @Ordian7 His last name means "Clown"

  • @Grave0330 Hes just a mad man dressed up as a clown, with powers of course and insane, somewhere in the story he killed gods to become a god himself and there you have it... oh and hes a much better villain then Sephiroth, this guy was unique and actually destroyed the world

  • @DjEzhel88 - kefa did not kill the warring triad, in fact, the returners fight them shortly before the final battle with kefka himself. but anyway, this was a great piece. it was different yet still close to home, so to speak. my only complaint is that you did the music for the tower, but not kefka's theme at the end. still sounds great though.

  • @Grave0330 He is originally like a court jester, and dresses like a clown kinda like Joker does in batman just more classical style, and later he basically turns into a God as seen in the pic which is only the last part of his final body.

  • @Grave0330 its kefka when goes god of magic mode

  • @Grave0330 u should play it i think it was one of the best final fantasys

  • @Grave0330 kefa was hard as hell youll like this game if u get it its very cool great story and some near deaths. if u have pc. get znes emulator and this rom contact me if u want the link i got it oh and winrar but dont worry i got that two!

  • @MrMuzzy157 I beat him with all my party members at level 35 :P Just took a while and I had to heal and rez a lot.

  • @thepsynergist wat level 35??? thats impossible thats crazy lol my guys were lvl 99 lol i got nervous i didint want to die. but dude u gotta make a video on how u did that thats pretty inpressive man.wait were ur characters wearing green beret

  • @MrMuzzy157 Of course, I also had Genji Glove and that relic that lets you attack 4x. So I was 4-5 shotting everything.

  • @MrMuzzy157 at the rate im going i'l end up facing the final boss of ix at level 44. if i can ever find that damn lifa tree

  • @MrMuzzy157 i killed them with ease at lvl 43 lol it's too damn simple if you complete all sidequests and have the best items there are

  • @thepsynergist holy shit really? my characters are leved around 80 an i still havent faced him

  • @thepsynergist

    Yeah, this game is dead easy. Even if you don't do all of the side quests or pick up everybody. At level 40 I didn't have a single death in the last boss. Just spam 8 attacks and chain multiple Ultima's ftw.

  • @Grave0330 he started out as a soldier, volunteered for an implant into his brain to allow him to use magic, went insane and acheived godhood.

    soz for spoiler

  • Another worthy remix. :-)

    You mind also providing a link for the photo you used?  I'd like a HQ version of it for my FFVI Silent Rock Opera.

    And you're right, Kefka > AllFFVillans. XD

  • Ultimecia had time...Kefka failed...

  • Maybe Auntie Ulty should have fokused more of that time on kompressing the universe at least ONCE instead of trying to mindfukk every sorceress she kould get her hot little lesbo hands on...

    ...but then again, that time kompression is a bitch. XD

    At the end of the day, when the credits start to roll, a World of Ruin is still a World of Ruin.

  • I'm going to build a monument to nonexistence!!!

  • @goodnobakes im going to build a monument to eternal DINNER!

  • holy mother of god this is better then the others ive heard so far.... its clean awesome and epic rolled into one badass vid {slaps a 6 star ranking on it}

  • This is epic. Five stars.

  • Possibly a bit off topic for Kefka's awesomeness...

    Would you do FFII's Castle Pandemonium?

    Or maybe a Nintendo song- like the underappreciated theme for Peppermint Palace from Kirby and the Amazing Mirror?

  • I could do an arrangement of FF2 Pandemonium. I like that song. Expect it soon, when I get the time to do it. This weeks in my college final's week.

  • If you arrange Pandaemonium you are a god.

  • KK, took me long enough, but I made it, check my most recent vid.

  • Son of a submariner!

  • Hate... Hate..... HATE!

  • The only thing this song was missing was rocking out in part 4, but you pretty much nailed EVERYTHING else.

  • This is an amazing piece. FAV!

  • stupid youtube , does not have enoug stars to rate properly your arrange

  • Kefka is going to kill us! WAAAAAHAAAAAAH! Nooooooo!
