At least one of those girls is probably thinking “I hope I don’t get raped…” and at least on of the “boys” is probably thinking “He said do what we want…RAPIN’ TIME!” XD Gotta admit, that would suck. Also…Vincent’s claws are red-brown. I am probably wrong, but that could mean something.

Vin’s got to have only around 1/2-1/3 these guys body weight and Rama probably picked these guys because their capable fighters (Look at Filaire, Kamden, and the other fox warriors and their fight with Celina was unfairly in Celina’s favor). We see Darius beat the tar out of people, but he’s picking fights with classroom toughs, not mercenaries, and has been training for longer than Vincent. Genetic Elite or not, the simple laws of physics and size difference count for a lot.

My choice of music here?

Demon of Darkness, From Devil Survivor for the current fight. (Nicely foreboding and ominous.)

And for Vin himself, I think Sorairo Days will fit him, once he finds his path in life. (It’s hopeful, upbeat and about finding your path in life.)

I listened to it and I’ve got to say, its a little too upbeat for this scene. I also don’t think now that Battlefield is suitable either since this fight doesn’t have a grand scope like that song entails. This is a much more personal affair.
My problem with “Battle without Honor or Humanity” is that is a groovy song that suits a fight when we see the heroes arrive to law down the law and we’re expecting them to triumph. Battlefield is a horrifying song that talks about great destruction being wrought in a fashion solely in the name of the army’s lords. Neither song fights this fight.
This battle is going to be a tragic fight where we admire Vincent’s defiance, but we aren’t stupid and know that his defeat is basically inevitable. Vincent’s not going to win, he’s not trying to be cool, and he’s not in it for honor or glory. He’s making a final, defiant stand because there’s simply nothing else to be done at this point. He can’t save the slave girls, but he can’t just stand by and do nothing. I ran through a ton of songs I know and I think ‘Revelations’ that was featured in the machinima series Red vs. Blue actually suits this fight. ‘Revelations’ has a desperate feel to it as we watch the heroes of the show wage a showdown against an ungodly powerful opponent that they’ve failed throughout the show to so much as hurt let alone come close to defeating. They’ve always just managed to escape or the enemy just leaves of his own accord for something more important that fighting the weak heroes. So Revelations has a huge taste of desperation (we don’t know how they can possibly win, they’ve failed so far) and nobility (we can’t help but cheer them on anyway). I’m not certain if the lyrics are a hundred percent match, but the instrumentation certainly is. So give ‘Revelations’ a try, I think its the closest we’ve got to a theme for this fight.

…and Vincent would be curb-stomped by any one of these guys, no question about it.

Seriously??!? If Rama fought without holding back, I’d fear for Vin. But the goons?? We know nothing about them, true, but to automatically assume that they’re far stronger than an Elite is folly – even if the Elite in question is young and unaware. Adrenaline and need make lessons very quickly learned…

Fox (not terribly concerned about Vin. The girls though…)
