Does SFV Juri have the worst theme song in fighting game history?

lmao this is how I felt too. I was waiting for the real tune to kick in, but it never did lol.

Mastery of a fighting game involves hundreds of hours of repetition. If anything, more melodic music isn't well suited because it gets old quickly. You just need something lowkey for background music while you churn the butter.

I hate to be that guy, but I enjoy it.
Of course, best fighting game soundtrack goes to Tekken 2.

What... What did they do? What the f is this? Oh man!
It's not the worst FG song, but I'm not s fan of it in the slightest.
A good number of the Capcom side remixes just took a song from their coresponding game and threw techno into it. Some times it worked (Phienix Wright and Wesker), other times it just ruined an already good song (Ammy and Jill).

It is absolutely garbage because it doesn't represent her character at all.
I expected Kazuya's theme, but you actually picked my real favorite. Best fighting game theme of all time in my opinion.

You people disgust me.
That remix is fuckin awful
Maybe y'all need to hear the original in comparison.
You wrong for this man lol

I just mentioned the original though.
I just think Capcom sucks at representing Juri. This theme sounds more like they want us to think of her as someone sultry and sexy, a Femme Nikita / Black Widow type. She looks the part, but she doesn't act it at all. I want to hear SOMETHING that's a bit crazy and maniacal with Juri; her personality is most fun when she's just going nuts and indulging in whatever she feels.
A good fighting game theme builds up the character it's representing. Take the case of Iori and his Stormy Saxophone themes. He doesn't look *that* kind of smooth at all, on first glance. But once you know the band he plays in during his off time, and the more tragic sides of his life (the fact his mother died soon after birthing him, and that he's not suppose to live long himself), the more you can understand this beautiful instrument playing a moody, emotional tune.
In Juri's case, they could have had SOMETHING in the story mode that "sold" this kind of theme to me. But they didn't. And then the theme itself doesn't sound like it belongs much in a fight. at least not on it's own. If this was SFII style, and it had a "Danger Music" portion, it could be pretty interesting, but it doesn't even do THAT.
A shame, as Juri's theme could hang with the SF Big-wigs if it were done justice. This just sounds like one of the weaker OC remixes trying to play with samples, rather than evolve her theme to another stage of character development.

I was under the impression that the one in TvC was the same as the one in Okami
Would be dope if the Cyberpunk 2077 composer went for these kinda sounds with the music for that game but I doubt that. Oh well, probably just gonna have to crank my mixes with that game I guess

Fuck no! Robo Ky's theme is awesome, and totally fitting. That twisted sounding version of regular Ky's theme rocks.
OP, yes that Juri theme is bad. But I counter-offer almost anything from either Capcom vs SNK 2, or King of Fighters 2001. Both of those soundtracks are terrible.

Its not bad, the issue is that I don't think it fits for a quick round of a fighting game and doesn't fit Juri either in my opinion.
It kind of reminds me of we are Finally Cowboys. I think it'd fit better for a boss fight that's supposed to last long, or maybe exploration music.

If this thread is any indication, most posters are too simple to appreciate it.

Your opinion is the worst
Holy Orders? is physically painful to listen to . When Im blasting the volume and it comes on my friends and I always went back to character select. It's a horrible song

This was what I came to post.
Tony shows up and "bwow wow woo woooooo". Wish you could give cast custom themes like in Kamen Rider Chou Climax Heroes just to get rid of this thing. Course knowing Tony it'd likely have people giving him AC DC tracks lol.
Is it easy to mod the soundtrack in the PC version? Because if so I'm changing this to her SF4 theme right away when I finally get the game.
Nah this is awesome.
