    Ive always had the thought that this is, essentially, a story about a lesbian who's in denial, but the witch "entices" and "enchants" her and she can no longer deny her homosexuality. So she throws her love for the witch away denying her homosexuality. She chooses to protect herself, her own image and mind. Then she, ahem, "ties away her life and love by the neck" in order to immortalize their love and staunch the guilt. The fire in heart still needed to be put out after all.

      Ngl the way you put it seems quite shallow when in reality, the story is more complicated than than. This masterpiece is not just a half-hearted cheap representation material like in western media with no greater meaning or symbolism. I can see the maid's feelings toward the witch, but it's also coming from the story about Jesus and Judas (and that one story from Dazai), as a result it also contains the element of doubts, madness, obsession, and betrayal-and that's what made it a masterpiece because when the element of love is added, it creates a rather tragic story.
      I know when you reply to me, it will definitely contain something like "I didn't said that" or "this is just my own perspective". I guess this is just my perspective as well. I don't like it when this song is simplified as a cheap story about sexual identity or basically any form of erotic relationship like that basic American issue (here is my sentiment talking) when I assume this story never cares about the difference between hetero/homosexual love like there was never any seen oppression in the first place, so homosexuality is never to be the essential of the story considering the inspiration sources even though no doubt it exists in a very beautiful subtle tragic form instead of being so straight-forward like the way you put it.

      Returning to your comment, I'm sorry to be blunt about this, but it reeks of "Westerners are bad" rhetoric which has ALWAYS been incredibly reductive and down right opposed to the actual truth of Japanese media. A lot of eastern media takes influence from western media, as does western media take influence from eastern media. Japan, as is to this discussion, is ALSO home to many LGBTQ+ individuals; this should not be downplayed or hidden.
      BTW, Sexuality does not equal EROTICA.
      So yes, I will say this; never once did I say that the biblical interpretations of this song are wrong. I was speaking on a NON META, IN CHARACTER level, in a much more simplified way that doesn't entirely touch upon the greater metatextual context that includes the biblical allusions. Those feed perfectly into my initial comment, in fact.
      tl;dr, I AGREE, the story isn't just a simple, shallow, set up for lesbians. To me, it is a rather a symbolic exploration of internalized homophobia, obsession, loss of innocence, regret, and homosexual yearning utilizing biblical allusion and subtext to carry this out. That is my reading of this song.

    colorful stage is so dirty for this because the in game event was all tears, hope, and promises, in which Ena says she’ll wait forever for Mizuki and Mizuki in turn promises that one day they’ll tell her about their secret (which was also a lie btw) and in the MV the one who acts as a savior is pushed to her death by the main girl, i am distraught beyond words😭 . i hope this betrayal only symbolizes the lie and doesn’t foreshadow any future betrayals because quite frankly i don’t know if i can take anymore!! especially since the in game event also came out with cards that had a bunch of witch imagery, i’m so dead and this video is feeding my Mizuena delusions tysm 💀

    One thing you've absolutley forgotten (which kinda shocked me) is the Album Cover single of this song (the vocaloid cover one). If you take a look of the cover the Black Girl's behind was a white tree, with also have a bunch of nooses.
    One YT comment that shocked me is that what happened to Judas: In the end after the Betrayal of Jesus and Judas being abandonned he decided to do the "hangman-game" to himself in the end. Comapre that to the album cover... I think we found out know what happened to the black haired girl.... 😰

    • @derpity-moons3575
      @derpity-moons3575 Před 8 měsíci +14

      I think maybe the correlation is the denial between the witch and the maid? The maid loves the witch but she seems to deny it and 'turn away'- while in the video she turns away through betrayal, the lyrics themselves are much more vague and are more like just wishing they could've stayed, but simultaneously denying herself. I think it fits what Mizuki does in the event since they truly care for Ena, but can't bring themselves to 'connect' with Ena just yet.

    • @RevaloNodriana
      @RevaloNodriana Před 7 měsíci +8

      ​@@derpity-moons3575That is my interpretation too, the lyrics are more vague and thus don't necessarily have the exact connotations the MV has, thus the song Lower fits both this version of Judas' betrayal and Niigo's story despite them not lining up much with each other and using the more vague song lyrics to tell their own stories.

    • @yumeyumedi
      @yumeyumedi Před 7 měsíci +4

      the song actually makes sense for mizukis story if we follow the lyrics, if we take the lyrics as if talking about mizukis struggle and ena trying to reach for them, and since the og mv doesnt have anything to do with the proseka ver. the phone does not only correlate the 3rd rotation end scene but also to an another song which has a phone for the cover, keitai renwa

    • @vapyofthewind
      @vapyofthewind Před 7 měsíci +4

      Lower is actually a commissioned song for project sekai, so it was also made with N25 in mind. If you pay attention on the lyrics it ties with Mizukis story and how they feel like they're betraying Ena for not telling her their secret. You can tell that on the og mv the witch would be Ena while the maid would be Mizuki.
      "If we are to be separated, if we are to lose our way, ill make sure we'll be connected this time, no matter how many times it takes" references on how Ena won't leave Mizukis side, doesn't matter if they don't tell their secret or not, she'll keep waiting until Mizuki is ready. And it doesn't matter if they be separated they'll still be connected by the deep friendship and trust they have with each other.
      You can tell how Mizuki and Ena get lots of covers together referencing those type of things, such as Mobile love story (which is also a commission actually), Charles and Gehenna.

    I actually don’t think she wants to be the man
    She rather wants to be the witch
    As you can see for that split second she exchanges place and clothes with the witch
    She wants the witch to be the disciple and she wants to be the witch
    So it’s more (she’s jealous of her status ) rather than the guy she’s dancing with

  • @aynanight5939
    @aynanight5939 Před 7 měsíci +25

    I wonder why the rain is red. The rain is bloody. I think, it also symbolize the witch-hunting. The maids (disciples) are running from the rain or going under umbrellas. This also can tell that their study, the witch way of helping others can be bad for her (witch) cuz she will be dead if she gets caught.
    So the maid is doubting, so she is crying cuz she is angry and sad that witch didnt makr her promise (Lets escape together "but you never came for me" in other translation of song). The maid wants to stop witch from doing her things (like healing others and so on). She's afraid to lost her. The reason why the faces of other disciples of witch (maids) are not clear, cuz the Maid is focused only of witch. She doesnt care about others. ("You can trust and lean on me, and you'll be alright") - Maid wants Witch to be only with her and live like ordinary people (like in story interpatation of Jesus and Judas Dazai Osamu). But Witch refuses. So why Maid feels like Witch betrayed her. So she "sells her for money". So they can be together in death (like in original story of Dazai, Judas worried that one day Jesus will be killed for his actions of mercy. So he decided to "kill him" before anyone takes Jesus from him.)

    In the What lies behind what lies ahead event I think I understand why they chose the song so Ena is the witch lady and Mizuki in the main girl because in the event Ena kept telling Mizuki that she wants to help her that if Mizuki wants to talk about it she can talk to Ena but in the end Mizuki lied to Ena basically betraying her and in that scene on the school rooftop (this part is a bit delusional) the sun was setting and the colour of the surrounding sky and the atmosphere was you guessed it yellow the colour of betrayal well at least that's my interpretation

    I feel like the lyrics are vague enough to apply to the original MV (which has themes of betrayal and guilt), and the more generalized interpretation (which has themes of secrets, loss and companionship), which is why although I think the interpretation presented in the video is extremely correct, it mostly just applies to the story the original MV is trying to tell, while say, the one for Niigo has a different connotation. Although the diversion isn't extreme as I'm probably making it sound.

    What really hits me pretty hard is that if I remember correctly, when Judas kissed Jesus on the cheek he apologized because he felt guilty. In response to Judas kissing him on the cheek Jesus responds, “With a kiss you betrayed me.”
    I think this can be directly tied to you referring to the dance as the kiss which OUCH makes it worse… 😭
    Oh btw! A note about the bit where the black haired girl is running and there’s that pink stuff on her. It’s the same colour of the fire so I think it symbolizes how she feels like she’s burning up from the guilt.

    Something else that I noticed is, at 5:38, when the maid and witch are dancing together, it’s not just them dancing- they seem to have switched roles. The maid is now the witch and the witch is now the maid. This may show some sort of jealously the maid may have felt toward the witch; maybe she wanted to be her?? (Im not christian so this may link to Judas’ and Jesus’ story, I’m not sure)
    This is also further suggested at the end of the MV when the maid bows in the witches attire.

    So you see, this song was featured on Mizuki's banner(gal with a light pink hair) and that it was all about how long can she keep this secret of hers, knowing it may potentially ruin her friendship with Ena (brown short hair gal), this MV metaphorically tells how it would happen if Mizuki told out that secret of hers

    I feel like this is similar to what the main character in 'Talentless Nana' feels in the anime. Though the plot progresses a bit differently, the feelings felt by the MC are the same

    thank you so much for this, i absolutely love this song 🫶🫶 also you should definitely read the event it was written for! analyzing the song with the event in mind kind of gives the lyrics a different meaning, but the main themes of betrayal, loss and guilt are still there :)

    One small detail that links the witch character to jesus is her earring. It looks like a fish - a symbol that has been used to identify christians.
    The fact that theres also a book in the video might be a nod to the bible (a book) or the fact that books may teach something, the case of the bible its the teachings and beliefs of that religion. Likewise there would be teachings of other religions that dont agree with christianity

    One thing I always notice about the "I wish that were me" moment, is that they switch outfits (white-haired girl wearing the maid outfit and the black-haired girl wearing the witch clothes)
    I'm unsure what this means but, I kinda see it as the black-haired being kinda jealous of the white-haired girl's powers or she at least wants some kind of power over the white-haired girl
    But idk

    • @udinchwan
      @udinchwan  Před 7 měsíci +1

  • @_jjjust.dreaming_
    @_jjjust.dreaming_ Před 7 měsíci +1

    from what I remember from info in the comments of some eng subtitle versions of the original MV, the plant used for the main girl is a Judas Tree and my personal suspections for the white haired girl's plant is the Star of Bethlehem flower, Bethlehem being where Jesus was born, basically translating the flowers as "Hey! This song's about Jesus and Judas!"

  • @maswirarawi9278
    @maswirarawi9278 Před 4 měsíci

    1:05 in the music video, there is a moment where the black haired girl is wearing the witch hat and the white haired witch lady is wearing the outfit the black haired girl is wearing. To me, this is like the black haired girl wishing that the white haired witch lady followed the anti-witch sect she followed because she didnt want to have to choose between the white haired witch lady and the anti-witch sect(???) Also maybe the discomfort shown is because she knows the identity of the witch and the man is from the anti-witch sect but doesnt know the witch's identity(sorry if this doesnt make sense, most of this is just what I understood from the video and mv)

    I really love this song, as well the book which is based on (An Urgent Appeal), which gives us the interest notion of Judas Iscariot been passionately in love with Jesus, and his actions were mostly out of love and also fear from the consequences. Unlike pure greed and evilness as the Gospel of John tried to portrait him (I believe it wasn't written by God, but by a man with a twisted perspective of the events).
    Also I recommend you to watch the musical Jesus Christ Superstar, specially the 1973 movie. Songs like "Heaven on their Minds", "Everything is Alright", "Dammed of all Time" and even "Judas' Death" are like divided songs for Lower One's Eyes. You don't need to be Christian to watch it, and the movie gives you all the info you need about the last week of Jesus' life.
    It will be amazing to see the girls of this video, doing their female version of Jesus Christ Superstar, or even male Jesus and Judas doing their version of Lower One's Eyes.

  • @StrawberrySauce64
    @StrawberrySauce64 Před 5 měsíci +1

    We don’t always get a song like this where the song main character is clearly the bad person. I always looked at song that have meanings, the main character is always the good person. I always saw it as the White Hair Witch was a fake Witch but the Black Hair girl was a real witch. The White Hair Witch then betrays the Black Hair Witch exposing her secret. The Black Hair Girl then runs away to escape. She then returns to make it seem the White Hair Witch was the real witch so she is burned instead. Ending the song with the Black Hair Girls revenge. This is not the story knowing this it actually makes it a lot more easier to understand why this was a Mizuki focus song. I found it strange that the game cover was a phone but at least I know why know and won’t question while playing the game.🐟

  • @mega_sulten
    @mega_sulten Před 2 měsíci

    I think it's a pretty intresting theory that this song is about the betrayal of Judas, which is probably one of the bibel stories I've been told that most times, and if I remember correctly Jesus knows that Judas will betray him, and Judas betrays him because he's scared of the church.
    This story is also a big part in the story about Jesus crucification, which happend because God wanted to sacrifice his son for humanity so we would all be forgiven and we would get the holy spirit.
    and Judas does sell Jesus out, and he gets the money but riddled by guilt he run to the church and throws the money at it and hangs himself.
    And while Jesus hangs on the cross he also get's betrayed by another of his disciples, that says he doesn't know him three times before the rooster has crowed three times before sunrise.
    But in all the story of the crucification is quite sad, but ends on a good note. One of my favourite easter stories

    I just saw the original vocaloid album cover, and i noticed there's a snake and an apple there. In the beginning of the bible aka the creation of the world (?), there's a story about adam and eve, and they are the first human in the world.
    They were placed in garden of eden, God told them that they can eat anything that they want, except a tree which has the forbidden fruit that basically can tell you everything. If they eat the fruit, they will be kicked out of eden garden. So there is a snake which resembles devil or like sins, the snake then lure eve to eat the forbidden fruit, both of them fell into snake's trap and eat the forbidden fruits. Before they eat forbidden fruit, they actually don't use anything to cover themselves aka naked, but after they eat those fruits, they hide in the bush because they're embarrassed of their appearance. Seeing them like that, God then asked them why are they hiding like that, and then they said that they are embarrassed. God then knew that they have eaten the forbidden fruit, God then kicked them out of the garden of eden and punished both snake, adam and eve.
    If we look at the cover, there's a snake which is probably from this long story that i tell here, and we can see that the black haired girl is eating an apple. So we can think of the apple or fruit as the sins and snake as the devils.
    Fun fact: The snake's punishment for luring adam and eve to sin is to slithering on the ground. So how does the snake move before lol

    The color yellow is symbolically linked to eternal life in the Bible, representing the fire of God, His divine presence, purification, and the anointing of God. Key takeaways: Biblical passages, such as Ezekiel 1:4 and Revelation 21:23, associate the color yellow with the fire of God and His divine presence.
