Todays rip: 11/08/2023

Forest of Tears

Season 7 Featured on: SiIvaGunner's Highest Quality Rips: Volume Ruby

Ripped by eg_9371

Tentative rip name: The Secret Forest of Bones

He's back again - the channel's most frequent contributor, eg_9371. Its still really nuts to me how one ripper not only sits above one thousand contributed works, but did so without cutting any corners - eg_9371 is not someone who throws shit at the wall and sees what sticks, but someone who tackles any possible challenge with his all just to see if its possible. A surprisingly high amount of the channel's best rips in recent memory have all been from him, and he deserves all the credit he can get.

Today's rip sits among his best ever rips, and a challenge I'm extremely grateful he chose to take on. Its a no-frills arrangement of one song in another song's instrumentation: Secret of the Forest from Chrono Trigger, in the style of City of Tears from Hollow Knight. Simple on paper, yet...both of these songs have a kind of untouchable magic to them, an emotional weight. They're the kind of songs that sound wrong if even tweaked just a small bit due just to how perfect the originals are. Yet the big man did it - Forest of Tears is as pitch-perfect of a combination of two legendary songs as you could get. There's no need for memes, no need for channel-specific leitmotifs, no need for an event - this is Chrono Trigger X Hollow Knight in its rawest, most perfect form.

Celes is ready to get her revenge 🔥

New page of Final Fantasy VI Webcomic is available on my Patreon now!

Regarding new pages: Yes, I'm still making one page per month and I'm posting them on my Patreon! Though, I'm still trying to figure out a new schedule to post them on my social media. Since new pages are very sporadic for the moment, I'm highly considering posting them on batches once or twice in a year on my social media from now on. I'll keep you guys updated! Thank you all for your understanding and support! ❤
