Kle here… I spread sparkles to the world.
I like to rank random things… Why? I have no idea….
Well, today, I decided to rank the Final Fantasy Battle Themes!!!
Final Fantasy is a game which is about as old as I am. It’s a JRPG which….
BAH! Who DOESN’T know what Final Fantasy is?!!!
AAAAAANYHOW…..
I’ve divided the rankings into 2…. One for the classic era… and one for the… uh…. Not so classic era! Classic era is from FFI-FFVI, Final Fantasy Legend and Final Fantasy Mystic Quest *lolwut?!* and the not so classic era comprises of… the rest….
The battle themes are of course the songs that play when you encounter a random battle.
Well… ON TO THE RANKINGS! *click song title to reach a YouTube page with said song*

05) Battle Theme – Final Fantasy Legend
06) Battle 1 – Final Fantasy V

Notes and reasonings:
Classic Era:
01) Listen to that rock song!!! Never mind that it came from a crap game… but that song! It’s so inspiring and upbeat!!! It actually makes you FEEL like killing random bugs! The main melody is so…. Badass….
02) The FIRST Final Fantasy battle theme. I admit I only started liking it after I heard the Black Mages version. But this version is so endearing in its own little way. Gaawwww
03) Technically the first game of the Mana series. Yeap, those guys at Square USA slapped on the Final Fantasy title to boost sales. Anyhow, this song has an awesome confusing sounding base…
04) It actually sounds like some elegant dance song… hahaha. The second part of the song sounds like some generic haunted house theme. SO CUTE!
05) Yeah yeah, this game is actually Makai Toushi Sa Ga. There’s just something kinda cute about this battle theme… but I have no idea WHAT.
06) THIS SONG MAKES ME FEEL LIKE A HERO!!!!
07) Somehow this song is kinda meh… Not that inspiring of a song
08) It sounds noble and heroic and all… but it sounds kinda… ordinary…
09) I found this one to be kinda boring… There, I said it….
Not-so-Classic Era
01) This song actually sounds like some political debate news conference song. But it still kicks ass nonetheless. I mean c’mon, it’s upbeat, and actually makes you feel… like fighting!
02) Durr hurr hurr…. The legendary song…. Fast paced and upbeat as hell… it’s kinda hard to hate this one!
03) Never played the game but I heard the OST in which it came from. It sounds so epic and orchestral! Makes you feel badass just listening to it!
04) The game is not even out yet and I’m falling in love with this theme! Ok, I admit… it’s partly because of the violins….
05) The song from the first Final Fantasy that I’ve played! It retains the classic feel of the earlier FFs but pales in terms of epic. But it still holds a special place in my heart
06) This song sounds kiddy…. And I’m killing things… It gets annoying the more you hear it… which is bad… considering the amount of random battles in this game….
07) ….get this thing away from me! It’s not a bad song… but it just doesn’t feel … battle-ish!
Yeap, there’s some pretty wtf choices at my selection of songs… but meh, as long as it has ‘Final Fantasy’ in the title, I’m game.
So, that’s it I guess…. Till then….
This is me, signing off!!!
