My theory for the confetti thing is that whoever is recording this is trying to hide Miku breaking and (maybe) Teto trying to signal for help(?)
I thought the confetti was a vocaloids blood is this even a theory 😭???
@@STAR_RUBY Maybe a headcanon-
I saw a comment on the official vid that said the confetti represents their sanity like at the start there isnt much confetti but when miku is hypnotized there is a lot it falls in the middle
@@elprocarlosandrerodriguezn2578 that make sense
@@elprocarlosandrerodriguezn2578Wow-
I noticed the black collar on miku’s neck, this could hint that she took her own life. This is considering the fact the Tetó does not have that on her neck.
this is a great theory considering she was easily influenced,manipulated, and easily affected.
Oh yeah, it looked like a shadow at first but Teto doesn’t have it, and it’s too high up to be a choker. Nice observation!
she prob got h@ng3d cuz when u are h@ng3d your eyes are dialated, neck is unstable and your tongue will stick out
It's a shadow. But yeah, I agree. I mean that shadow grow even wider when she dances.
Her tongue also hangs out which is something that happens if you took your life using the hanging method
You also forgot how we’re already like getting hypnotized by Miku & Teto.. Left and right, like a coin. Like how MIKU got hypnotized..
That what i was saying
the focus part actually hypnotizes people, if u stare directly at the middle u (might) feel sleepy n stuff
@@st4rr0ll Yeah!
Idk why but i kinda like the song..
No need for sleepy hypnotists I’m already tired
And I noticed that when Teto gets scared, she covers it with a smile.
Ohh what the actually avocado-HOW do I get 26 likes 🤨
Now 62
Now 96
Now 111
Now 125
1:28 - Teto also goes "Perhaps acting stupid and surrendering yourself is the optimal solution" whoch could be referencing on giving yourself up to someone else in hypnosis
actually given how teto didn't do the shutdown thing miku did when she was hypnotised, maybe this line implies she was faking it?
@@organichotchoco notice how she blinks more than Miku in the entire MV? They did mention that about staring at reality for too long to the point it can blind a person. That's maybe some sort of way they hypnotize them. Fortunately due to Teto's lack of phosphoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarboxamide and her blinks for help, she wasn't fully hypnotized because of it. She was able to resist the 'blinding reality' by blinking as a break from staring at the 'blinding reality' (yes ik someone probably mentioned something like this in the comments here but it's very important to note)
something i noticed
phosphoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarboxamide (the super long word in quiz time) is an enzyme found in humans that is essential for DNA synthesis and energy metabolism. i believe a deficiency of this enzyme can cause hearing loss - which could potentially explain why the audio faded out when teto was getting hypnotized (it could also just represent teto blocking out the hypnosis and trying to fight it but idk). also, teto being deaf/hard of hearing could explain why she knew sign language + morse code to begin with maybe
probably just a stretch, but i definitely think that word has some sort of meaning considering how random it is
how does someone lack phosphoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarboxamide tho?? isn't that kinda rare or are there some certain conditions you have to be in to lack that kind of enzyme??
@@AkiraTheDot not too sure, i’m no biologist but yeah i’m pretty sure it’s super rare
This will probably be buried under all these comments, but I wanted to put it out there: The switch to a phone-sized FOV when the "hypnosis" happens could symbolize that they are being hypnotized by US--or, rather, the online attention that we give them. One of the interpretations of the story could then be that they are numbing their emotions of the every day depressing world by seeking social media attention(Miku going "insane" and overperforming for the camera+extra confetti could be like "selling out")
something i haven't seen mentioned quite yet is miku's collar. it's right over left, which is typically used for dead people. combine that with the ring around her neck, hypnotized expression, and head tilt
oooooo
Another part proving the “advertisement”/ “performance” theory is that one part at the end where they’re both standing with a green screen behind them, which signals that the background is fake
I thi k the time teto like. was repeated falling at 2:06 is also a sign of this? that kind of editing used to be used quite a bit i think
The eyes really do represent they're hope,and in the end where Miku becomes crazy,Teto lost all hope because of losing her friend.
Their pupils also change from a sparkle to circle to having none at all
@@nelsoncua9739 Yeah,but when Miku was happy? before turning crazy,she had star eyes...it also happened when Teto explained the "cure" int the beginning.
My theory is that due to reality being harsh, Miku and Teto "escapes" to somewhere better. In the first verse, Miku talks about how reality is just a bunch of fake emotions, and then Teto recommends escapism. However, Teto then says something like 'surrendering yourself is the best solution', which I think, is suicide, due to the world being so harsh. Maybe the hypnotise thingies are the desire to un-alive yourself, idk.
In the 'shut down' part, Miku falls into the hypnosis, and following the lines of the theory, Miku gives in and has the desire to end it all. However, Teto doesn't give in just yet, maybe showing that she doesn't un-alive herself and she is going to stay with Miku.
In the last chorus, before Miku goes crazy, Teto looks worried, maybe showing that she knows that Miku wants to k!ll herself and she's nervous. But, Miku still looks happy, because she knows that it will all end soon. When Miku finally goes crazy, you can see that her tongue is showing and her neck is unbalanced, showing that she finally ended it all (aka, un-alived herself) with a rope. She also has a choker, symbolising suicide. Teto looked scared from the first few seconds when Miku went crazy, maybe because Miku had k!lled herself. At the very last part, Teto also falls into the hypnosis, aka un-aliving herself, because she can't live without Miku and she wanted to join her.
That's all! :D
1:50 teto says in her hand " help " and miku says " please " on her hands
"help please"?
"Please help"?
@@N0tS0m3_0n3 idk
@@N0tS0m3_0n3looking at how they were oddly out of order in this scene, I think it is "help please"
Hmm... It wouldn't be far from the truth, considering that Miku was the most sane before the first chorus and thus would make a bit of sense for her to ask for help like Teto, but didn't get the chance to for as long as Teto since she was predisposed to hypnosis from the beginning
that sign actually doesn't mean "please" in ASL (as someone who uses it), Miku would have been rubbing a hand in a circular motion in front of her chest if she did. it's more of a pleading gesture if anything
1:43 teto was signing in ASL for “help”.
2:21 teto was blinking in morse code “sos” ( . . . _ _ _ . . . ).
2:43 these four quiz questions? the first letters spell “HELP” and the fourth (excluding hat) spell “SOS”. The last question was also some part of a human’s DNA, suggesting Teto is warning you Miku is not human?
2:48 teto was also signing for “save me”
2:53 Miku sways with the screen, while Teto doesn’t. Miku gets hypnotized. If you also didn’t notice, the clouds slow down/stop moving during Miku’s part. However, Teto resists for a long time, even blurring her eyes. She also blocks it out (hence the music stopping). The final words get cut off since she didn’t get hypnotized.
3:11 i forgot what the stars are called, however they have 13 points and represent immortality.
4:12 The confetti only started falling when Teto danced. The background slowly faded to black.
4:53 Teto is so shocked she stops bouncing for a bit. Miku also has a neck tilt and her tongue out, suggesting she hvng herself. Her arms also bend physically impossibly, and she does a move she hadn’t done before. Miku also keeps dancing during Teto’s part and gets off-beat during hers. She also dances when the stars come up.
Also, Teto decides to stop resisting and becomes hypnotized, as seen at the end.
Also in the whole video, i saw a comment where miku is dressed up as a 50’s waitress and teto is dressed as a bellman, The two jobs obey the orders of the people. So miku probably listened and didnt know and got hypontized and got controlled.
I saw the hand sign of "save me" and after I saw it I was like 'SJOWJEKCCNWKFHKRHDOEJWMISK' 💀
H - Hat
E - raser
L - emon
P - ...
?
The 13 point stars are tridecagrams
My thought about teto...
Okay, so yes, the screen swayed side to side like miku's but as you can tell, Teto didnt follow the swaying of the screen, instead she stayed still and blurred her eyes to avoid being hypnotised, and i thjnk the shut down part was cut off cause Teto's control of her body didnt get shut down unlike Miku's. And the parts where she asked for help WERE calls for help, tand also, when Miku went insane, teto stopped bobbing up and down for a few seconds, and Miku didnt even stop dancing when it was Teto's turn. And if you could tell. Miku was starting to dance off beat and didnt stop dsncing when the screen was covered.
Little easter egg at the end, Teto actually got hypnotised as you can tell that her eyes went black, her sweat disappeared and she smiles.
there us also a theory were people are saying teto is the one who brought miku into this and then she is also getting hypnotized, that's why she understands how hypnotize work and tries to fight back + the facial expression of "oh no what have i done" when miku was hypnotized and became crazy
You know you're in for something when *fiction* starts telling you to Kel yourself.
maybe even to oyasumi yourself?
Possibly Sayori yourself?
theoretically Basil yourself?
I'm guessing Mari yourself?
Perhaps to Komaeda yourself?
So, I notice that at the end (after Miku’s… episode,) Teto does stop bouncing for a while and also STAYS concerned throughout it. Miku is now ONLY DOING the “puppet-like” poses that she hasn’t done before! If you notice, her wrists are completely limp. I think those collars around her wrists are where the “puppet strings” go, controlling her.
Also, Teto looks at her funny before her “shut down” because of the pose she did (at least I think). She gets genuinely kind of concerned for Miku, becuase the hypnosis hasn’t worked that strongly before. It’s super interesting how many details are in this short MV! :D
i noticed that when miku is hypnotized and dancing, her neck is becoming thinner and thicker
Yeah and her arms aren't like Tetos when dancing at that point
Also, on the chorus before miku gets hypnotised, he movements already seem to be slurred. Like she's on the verge of being hypnotised. And also, her choker may represent sh/suicide. Speaking of suicide, her body looks dead too. Her skin is white, due to lack of oxygen. Same with here tongue. The slurred movements in her hypnotised state, could be her dead body being controlled by here soul, which most probably died due to well. Suicide.
My first impression of this song was "toxic friendships" because in my eyes, i was in a similar situation a while back. With me being miku and my other bestfriend who was in this friendship, as Teto.
1. In the friendship i was, and still am but just a bit less, swayed/manipulatable.
2. My other best friend (we'll call her Len), Len was the reasonable one. Being the one who ended the friendship for both of us, while I, being like Miku here, was already "mesmerized" by her (ex toxic friend, lets call her Kylie).
3. Len asked for help with her while i didn't. She told people abt the situation, i kept my mouth shut.
4. Continuing off if 3 while being a seperate point, i was very similar to Miku; Gullible, vulnerable, and easy to manipulate. To add more, i was being used for entertainment (with the whole show like theme of the a mv/song) and with being used as a servant(or in other words, a puppet.) in a way. (They also have 90's diner outfits. Waiter Miku and i think receptionist/front desk Teto?)
5. Roles. with miku being a waiter, shes commanded alot, Similar to myself. And Teto being a person who leads you 2 ur table, shes usually saying the commands. But, that doesn't mean she cant be commanded, similar to Len.
Well, this is where im gonna end my rant! Bye :3
Miku = Gullible one
Teto = Sensible one
Director/ringleader = Toxic one
I thought there was something more about their outfits than just the color so I did some research and saw that scientific research claims that stripy patterns give the human brain a sense of distress and dizziness to the brain. Also stripes or lines that occur in your vision are from the amount of stress that you have. This can be taken in different ways like if we go with the actors theory, they personally have them wear stripy clothing to hypnotize them easier and especially get Miku so that she can be used to get Teto hyponotized also. It can also be said that if we look through the eyes of these two, miku has a lot more stress and she can see lines because of that stress a lot more on her blue clothing while teto doesn’t have as much stress but still sees it on her blue clothing, this can also be a long shot but the amount of stripes on their personal outfits could mean how often they hallucinate. Sorry for this long paragraph, I just was so excited that I could be somewhat smart once 😀.
I also realized that they made Miku say the first phrase before entering the dance like "farewell" and before Miku broke
And Teto the last it's like Teto is not the priority and indicating Teto is the first victim of the hypnotize
Off topic but I see you have a minori hanasato pic :D
does anyone else realize the fact that they look like they work at a movie theatre or at a hotel?? idk it just kinda seems like that
I also noticed that, I thought I was the only one who did
the outfits are supposed to look like uniforms that diner/bar/food workers would wear. those jobs usually overwhelm and overwork their employees, thus giving the song more meaning to leaving reality and going in a different world to "escape" their responsibilities. they're more likely to get coaxed into or fooled by happy-go-lucky advertisements like this because of their overbearing lifestyle and horrible working conditions
My thinking abt this vid…is that they were hired for doing this and when they are talking,they were talking abt hypnosis,and when before the dancing part,teto is doing the help ASL hand and miku is doing the please so it is “help please” when miku is dancing teto is doing the sos in morse code. And when its the quiz the first letter is HELP but the P is some kind of dna bc teto is warning us that miku is not human from later on and miku got hypnotized and teto realized it but can’t get any help,and at the last part we see teto giving up her last egde
Alternate interpretation of "you're made for this era" line: さらば！
saraba!
Farewell!
こんな時代に誂えた

The vulneravilities of the
見て呉れの脆弱性
mitekure no kijakusei
outward appearance tailored to you in this age
btw vulnerabilities is purposely misspelled to reflect the original lyrics... and there are some internet slang sounding lyrics
6:33 - It says mesmerizer in katakana
I think it’s kanji
@@NaalaFaseehits just the word mesmerizer written in katakana. like “mezumeraizaa”
Their outfits come from like certain jobs you see on TV (ehem ehem Back to the Future) like Miku wearing those maid outfits with rollerskates you see on those 90s bars and Teto wears the other maid outfits but with shoes so referencing that this is a show is possible.
I could just imagine that the company is tryna promote escapism through the lives of workers ykyk
Hmm, this made my think that the song could be talking about working or something. Getting caught up in the daily routines of life and like the lyrics say “bot like cycle.”
@@c00l9 now that you've mentioned it , I think that not only will the "show" be shown to kids but also adults who just needed to find a way to end their suffering
4:27 miku looks like that cause if you hang yourself on something you're tounge sticks outs and you will have a broken and dislocated neck
One thing i though is that the "escape" from reality that miku and teto is promoting is actually the hypnotization that miku surrendered(??) at the end
This combines even more with the "acting" and the "comercial" thing that he showed us
1:46 did anyone notice that Miku’s eyes slightly move back and forth?
This song is just so good and full of interesting details that it seems no matter how many analysis I watch, there’ll still be more to notice. It almost feels like everyone’s collaborating to fully understand it and I personally find that very interesting. Thanks for making your own analysis!
1:43 teto actually is doing a help sign there and miku the please sign .so it is "help please"
My thought:could be in the beginning, miku entering some "company"to become idol(that why she easily fall in hypnosis), while teto had to work due because pay for ear treatment or hearing aid(that explains why teto knew sign language).maybe the company doing the hypnosis so miku and teto keep working and leaves positive review to avoid company reputation damage, however due because teto has hearing problem making hypnosis taking numerous day(perhaps the hypnosis is fail) . In the end teto fall in despair seeing miku became insane or unstable
My theory about this song (based on other's observation and my thinking) is that it's also about depression (because some alinements), where Miku is depressed and Teto is like trying to help her out while trying not to follow on with what Miku's experiencing
The stars at the start represent "immortality" idk about the others tho-
The thingy where tetos hand is on a thumbs up and on her other hand is a sign of SOS.
She was blinking useing Sign Language to ask for help, . . . - - - . . . To be exact.
She did the help sign at quiz time and the first initial of every answer in the quiz spells help.
Dont forget she was hypnotized at the end!!
might be a bit of a stretch but i think girls' outfit design choices help push whatever narrative there is: miku's clothes seem like a stylized maid dress - as if she is a servant under someone's control; she has slightly more details n accessories - like a doll, a doll-like puppet*. plus, blue color is often associated with trust, like how miku easily trusted sugar coated words and has fallen to hypnosis rather quickly, or how she is a tool - a trustworthy looking character for others to get hypnotized by.
teto, on the other hand, is dressed a bit less open - less trusting maybe, a bit more down-to-earth, structured n stoic (?), and like you pointed out, she's colored just like warning signs!
*im liking the theory that this miku already took her own life, hence the black choker thingy - or her human psyche broke/shut down bad enough for her to become something of a soulless puppet of a human.. maybe before her human body got replaced by a puppet replica 😳but at this point im just making shxt up.
aaand im leaning towards teto being actually hypnotized by the end of the mv, while it is a bit straightforward and boring, it would make sense for her to snap: she's been fighting hypnosis for a while it seems, crying for help for both of them and hoping to escape, only to see her... coworker? snap, behaving like a broken horror-lookin' puppet. i can see teto's psyche being broken by the end of this as well, succumbing to mindless hypnosis just to escape this horror of an existance. fits this whole song's escapism theme
anyways, great analysis!! you pointed out many things i didn't notice or realize, super helpful
1:36 teto is asking for help with the gesture.
Tero in the song be like:😭😭😭👃🦻🦶👂🦵🫸✊✋✋👍🤟🤟🤘🤚 help help
👁👁 eyes too
1:32 Teto is giving a sign of help with his hands. Just to let u know if u haven’t)-
1:57 here Teto is blinking S-O-S in Morse code
theyre mentioned in part 2!
Bits you may have missed!
1) look at Teto when Miku is dancing in the first bit, she will blink like this:
…,~~~,…(morse code)
Translation: SOS.
Could this be the second cry for help from Teto?
2) Look closely at the quiz:
Hat
EraSer
LemOn
PhoSphoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarbo
1st letter: H-E-L-P
4th letter: _-S-O-S
What it says: HELP, SOS(SAVE OUR SOULS)
Is this the third cry for help by Teto?
3)Look where someone tried hypnotise them:
Miku got hypnotised in 1 day.
However,you can see Teto fighting the hypnotism for many days.
In total she fought it off for around 10 days.
4)Look when Teto dances after the hypnotism attempt:
When she dances, the background colour(color) turns slightly darker each time.
5) At the end of the animation, look at Teto’s eyes:
They have turned black and her creeped-out facial espression turned to a smile.
This signalises she has lost the hope and faith to carry on fighting and has been hypnotised.
EN) I know they have mentioned this in the theory, but. Check it out on the real animation, you’ll see it clearer(hopefully)
Those trideshapes represent immortality if I am correct.
When Miku was hypnotised her Neck was actually getting thinner.
7:44 seems like she’s motioning her arms in a “KEEP OUT/DON’T COME CLOSER/STAY AWAY” motion
This ties well with her facial expression of panic
The overlapping of her can also mean that she’s in an edited production, and it could be that she’s overlapping on command (she can do it voluntarily) making herself all the more attention calling like one of these : ⚠️‼️. If anything, you may be more familiar with the ⚠️ with a red exclamation mark, matching her colors, but since red (red and exclamation mark) usually marks danger, that could be why she wears more red than yellow. Her body motions and expressions, her overlapping on command, and colors may be her doing her best to warn you away and be as flashy as she can
The overlapping could be an ability she can do very scarcely as we don’t see it often
i’m adding on that the confetti in the mv was used to try to hide teto’s hypnotism at the very end perhaps(?)
the confetti was also probably added as the editor’s choice(?)
A thing I'd like to point out is their outfits. Something about them looks like they're workers in some sort of amusement park. But they're not just workers, they're the mascots. My theory is that they seek escapism by playing these whimsical characters in a whimsical amusement park that provides escapism for the people that visit. I'm still not entirely sure how this could tie into the theme of hypnosis tho, maybe they haven't been performing well due to all that stress never getting resolved and the company that owns said amusement park hypnotises them to play their roles more accurately?
I see them as a kid show helpers like on Blues Clues? Since they do quizzes and stuffs.
This is the most comprehensive analysis I've seen. Well done.
I have noticed something myself that wasn't mentioned: I think Miku closes her eyes in the second chorus in order to conceal what's lurking below
I've also heard that the vertical arrangement of both of them could represent the short form content that's ever so common now, you can see people spend hours on those videos in a scrolling loop, thus being in a "bot-like cycle" and hypnotized
For the "Prostituting your wounds" lyrics, I think it would be connected to some sort of self harm?
Cuz the previous lyrics talk about feelings.
If you over think it, eventually you'll connect feelings with mental health issues and some people with those issues tend to harm themselves.
prostituting means *check on google cuz I'm not mentioning it*
So lets say the *😀❤️😀* as in the feelings and the money as the hypnosis thingy that's mentioned later on. Money can make a person feel happier because well, obvious reasons. But once they run out, they're back to the usual gloom. Giving/throwing away your feelings, or not caring about your wounds in exchange of temporary happiness which COULD indicate that if the hypnosis takes over, you'll be oblivious to your actual feelings. But there's a way to get rid of the hypnosis too.
Idrk tho I'm bad at theories (Stupid and makes no sense, Ik. Don't come after me tho, there's been cases 😭✋)
Facts of mesmerizer
1. In the start it will brainwash you bc is saying "mesmerizer" in lots of fonts
2. The pose and the circle in the middle is the meaning of SOS
3. Teto was making help sign
4. Teto blinked 3 times that is SOS
5. The quiz time it was saying "HELP" In the start and "SOS" in the middle
6. The DNA of the last quiz is saying that miku is not a human anymore
7. Teto was watching miku nervous
8. When miku gets kinda crazy ig the circle gets bigger and it changes texture that it brainwash you
9. When teto was dancing at the end miku is still dancing
10. If you count the points of the circle you will see that there's 13 and 13 is an unlucky number
You're welcome of this helped you to understand ♥️
More input: i heard when you put miku teto and the suns colors together u get black... I think
Nice analysis. 32ki was onto something in this song 👍
Girl tysm for that! your point of view is wise and you told me the whole thing on a way that now i understand all of it! and congrats to the creator that worked on each detail and the puzzles
People tend to like the tune and melody more making them think its happy, but the lyrics arent happy at all. Its like “escaping” reality. The tune, melody, vibe and look are most likely that people think its happy. This way, it also makes us think its all happy! And only the ones who understand the lyrics know its not happy. Just like Miku’s Hypnotization. Also, this video is also kinda a key to find out what its all about. (Uncovering the true meaning). Its the same as “Sad Lyrics, Happy Melody” probably. Sometimes it makes you vibe to the song.
Also idk if this is just design choice or anything, but miku has a black collar while teto has a black work tie
Black is a shade of sorrow, evil, unknown and so on
A collar is captivity, below, controlled, owned and such- and because its on the neck- where her neck snaps- its also how a puppets head always hangs- you dont have a brain as a puppet, no opinions, no rights, no thoughts, no preferences- your mind is controlled and your limbs are held up by strings of the puppeteer so there is no need for your nerves to be alarmd- and shown in her movement miku has shown puppet signs quite frequently- as well as the hypnotizing situation- furthermore you dont have a mind of your own
A collar is also used on pets- and is used in degration a lot- could also show how her mind is weaker than teto's
Meanwhile teto has a black work tie-
A tie is shown of stability due to the neat and tidy and strict, strong mentality appearance of office workers or of those higher up.
A tie can also in a sense to the collar be used as a leash. Because teto isnt willingly going along with the hypnosis, she is resisting- so they have to *pull* and *tug* her to try to get her to follow and obey- which in the end, we see works. However it can also be because she is following miku and staying with her- but she also doesnt have a choice.
Resistance
And also the length of a tie compared to a collar- it shows their durability and how much stronger teto is mentally (just how red is stronger than blue in this sense)
The tie shows her more mature and tamed self- how she is under control. But she isnt really, is she? Becayse she is an 'office worker' or 'CEO'. She isnt the director. she doesnt have any real control or power over herself or enough to help miku. Besides Signalling for us.
Maybe im looking too far into this, but every detail matters!!!!
Theory 1:- the confetti is both of their sanity look carefully the confetti is quite less at the start but it started to slowly but shortly increase.
Theory 2:- both miku and teto were hypnotised but teto was able to survive the hypnotism and hence she could send cries of help unlike miku.
Theory 3:- when miku snaps her tongue is out her head is tilted and her neck is thinner which all are signs of her hanging herself and her movements look like a doll
Theory 4:- Maybe when miku got hypnotised she lost the Phosphoriboslyaminsimidazoiseuccinocarbo in her blood and her body wasnt able to control it
Ok,so i watch the original mv and i notice this.
If you focus at that shape when its spin and dont blink you get dizzy but can get it away by wipe you're face tho you will get the move when miku get hypnotis and blurry vision but,if you do what miku/teto tell you at the end to focus and not blink until the end you will see the shape be 2 part that will go to teto and miku. Maybe it depens but i see there a almost transparant and thick one,the transparant is going to miku whict may repensent that miku is ez to be control fully by whoever that is, as the thick one get to teto whict repersent that teto is stil hard to be control. That its i dont recomed to try what i try but if you wanna try just becarefull.
Edit: i got dizzy from early in the morning until evening from try this yesterday.again becarefull this may not safe😢
In twitter, 32kai and Channelcastation (I don't remember too well their names) made a bunch of tweets about the song, one of those being that the animation didn't fully reflect the intentions of the song because 32kai didn't fully explain it too well to channel (if I remember correctly, he said it was on purpose)
Just as a fun fact, take what I said with a grain of salt because those tweets were made some days ago, but they are still up
heres all the things that i understand!! (in order)|
the stars represent immortality
miku and teto were actually talking abt depression and escaping hypnotization
teto was doing a help hand gesture
teto was saying sos in morse code by blinking (. . . - - - . . .)
the quiz spells out " H E L P"
teto did the american help sign
notice how miku was moving along the camera? that means miku was being hypnotized+the lyrics were litreally talking abt it
teto was trying to resist and ended up standing completly still+ the background was getting faster which means she was resisting for days
the green screen means that everything is fake
the focus thing became a hypnotization video, which means that they were inviting us to get hypnotized
miku looks like she is being hanged, when you hang yourself your neck becomes broken, and mikus neck is sideways, your tounge sticks out when your hanged, and her pupils dialated, that happenens in death,
miku has also lost her mind, she doesnt stop dancing in tetos turn
miku didn't stop dancing
tetos dancing is slightly offbeat
execsessive confetti
teto gets hypnotized at the end
adding to what you said in the conclusion, I think miku and teto were forced to do this, and the script is meant to hypnotize them. teto realizes this and wasn’t tricked, but maybe at the end, she might feel bad for miku becoming hypnotized, so she decides to be hypnotized to. teto was definitely tricked slowly but surely
8:05 i think that long word is like a sort of DNA (im forgot-) Maybe teto was trying to say that miku isnt normal, and needed help?(of course this might be wrong)
1:30 help in sign language
👍
🫴
2:49 "help" sign. pay attention to teto's hand (left hand from her perspective)
the sign for help with your hand is usaully this. 1. put your thumb on your hand. 2. with your other fingers, trap your thumb and release it two times.
also, the quiz, look at the words.
Hat
EraSer
LemOn
PhoSophoribosylaminoimidazolesuccinocarbo (some type of human dna, maybe teto is telling us miku is not human?)
look at the first letter of the words.
its spelling out "HELP"
now every fourth letter of the words, excluding hat.
its spelling out "SOS"
2:55 these lyrics are weird.... yeah you already know shes uhhh getting hypnotized.
teto, on the other hand was resisting for a long time.
4:25 teto is suprised.
teto looks at the viewer with the face that says "help, please save me"
when you hang yourself, usually your tounge sticks out and your head is tilted.
miku goes offbeat for a sec.
0:33 right over left on her shirt is usaully associated with dead people, signalizing shes already dead..?
Pretty sure the diamond eyes just symbolize enthusiasm, nothing else.
Ohh, so that must means they lost their enthusiasm in their life because of how boring and repeating it is... Yeah that kind of make sense
enthusiasm and hope cause the longer you watch the vid, the smaller the white diamond becomes
also guys the 4 point star (in the eyes at the start) represents like hope and truth, so their eyes turning to ovals could represent like how they slowly lose hope and their sense of reality and truth
Sigh language for help 1:31 12:06 hypnotised at the end 12:51 sign language again for the same reason 1:55 blinking in morse code saying SOS
7:45
Teto is in that pose, and it looks like she's going to trip
This could be her trying to tell us about Miku getting hypnotized
BTW I'm not sure if this is correct
1:53 look close ly at this part and focus at te to, you see, if you look closely teto is blinking this “. . . _ _ _ . . .” Which it means SOS or help, and the quiz part too, teto is making a hand signature, look closely to her hands! Hope this will help you out!
Ok here❤❤
7:16 if u r wondering so the puplis are dimonid in the cover theres a blinding light in font them, but in the vidthey start off oval?they hipnosised😅😅 a torey
I do think miku wants to escape, like when teto ask for help in asl, she has the please sign, but its like shes weak about it
my theory about the tridecagram (immortality shape) represents how in the mesmerizer world, you don’t have to worry about problems in life such as aging and inevitably dying
imo when the green screen part, i think it's a meaning like hypnotization? (like doing whatever the person wants you to do, like how we move characters with green screen however we want w/o restrictions)
tbh they look like traffic lights... Not to mention blue is 青 in jp and 青 can also be green and symbolizes youth
GOSH I
WATCHED THE VIDEO AND IT WAS THERE WHICH CONFIRMS THE SYMBOLISM... I didn't EVEN NOTICE... THE COLORS WHEN SHE WAS GONNA GO CRAZY,
Also
I have new input, the "running away from things in front of you" part, the word for things/matters is actually alsothe word for event in to an event where everything gets t(a)inted
1:50 teto: saying help in sign language
Miku: saying please in sign language
Put those words together: help please
Theory about this - Teto - Represented theory could be a clue of help *colors of the video makes sense* as u see the primary colors are blue red and yellow *the main colors* it means theres a another trick to the hypoisnisim *correct my grammar* which means *focus the main source* means the color are the main subject on this vid *so what does the color mean?* Blue - Stable mainpulation *sadness* red and yellow meant *times we have to be always alramed* i always notice the layout is red and yellow means its a warning but sometimes its blue but in the beginning there were purple green and pink orange stars means the confetti if u don't know the colour meanings or their emotions here pink - cheerful green - be prepared orange - anxious purple - fear meant if pink was first to come out it after yellow red and blue and maybe it may be the parts of the music video *pink and blue - happy *first* red and yellow and green *always be warned* and orange and purple - fear *the end of the music video* how many parts were teto was saying help prob 8 parts but there was a part were miku was saying help but i forgot what's the part
*parts about fake charisma* this is kinda releated to a oshi no ko event in the anime about *lie lie charisma* means ur lying about ur true self about the advertisment theory it meant that teto and miku were meant to be saying the actual script but miku had lost it so much that she thought faking her real emotions *but that is a mental health problem* about their eyes going to circle and diamond and circle again means *circle means good diamond means warning* so here :3
1:49 is when teto does a thumbs up with an hand under it
It is an call for help
Many people seeing it normal
Bc of the thumbs up
The confetti represents their sanity,
Less=sane
More=insane
I still think that their dance has a meaning on it not just a weird poses turn into dance
My theory about the confetti when miku was hypnotized she lost her mind and didn't stop dancing on tetos part
What she means by the safety zone is shrinking is that more people are getting hipnotized the same way she is or she is slowly getting hipnotized but not saying it all the way
I feel like Teto tripping might connect to how you said she has shoes instead of rollerskates, like she's been tripped multiple times and people and tried to manipulate her but she fought back and was able to stay herself
1:35 here it shows Teto making a hand gesture which means *"help"*
2:48 and over here she (Teto) uses her hand as another signal for help
Also the the first letters of the words in the quiz spell "HELP"
Great detailing :)
at the star part thingy, teto is doing a sign for help with her hands.
I am the most random person bro 4:36 "a fake charisma" got me laughing harder than i should've..
My theory Miku was already hypnotized!! We see on her arms werid puppet kind of stuff wrapped around her. Its werid how shes always perfect on dances but teto is always failing if u try to do the dance at that speed u cant thats why teto failed but since miku is a puppet she gets it perfect bc she is controlled! Anyways at where miku got hypnotized notice the background? The clouds and the blue sky doesnt turn night time and the clouds dont move. So it mean Miku knew she wouldnt save her self so she gave her self too early. On tetos side her background turns night time and the clouds move it happend 10 times right? So it means teto was fighting for 10 days. And where the part that where that it says "Look in the star" teto and miku do the S pose it spells "SoS" bc of the star. Oh yeah lets go back to the puppet part remember this miku has roller skates and teto has boots. Its sus how miku gets the dance with roller skates at a high speed but its not sus that teto trips bc she has boots at a high speed, That confirms that miku is a puppet!.
Their eyes going black may be like them losing their emotion due to the hypnosis , also Tetos eye whites get smaller after the hypnosis,
7:44 this could mean that this is teto glitching and her calls for help because she's also crying
2:47 teto is doing the "Help me" sign with her right hand.
Not me checking teto's hand every time to see the sos sign again
Something I also noticed is LOOK AT THE OUTFITS!!! Miku is wearing a maid outfit which usaly is a waitress thing which is stress full and is more susceptible to mistakes with tato tho she in a train conductor outfit which is a heavy focus job see where I’m getting at?!??!? HAS NO ONE NOTICED THAT
And another thing that proves that is the fact miku was more depressed and susceptible to hypnosis than tato who dawns a train conductor outfit as started earlier who are more likely to not be depressed than waiters because less stress
I have a theory.
What if a human trafficker is having them like this, and hypnotizing them to make them their slaves or playthings? And Miku is also folding her hands, as if praying. Almost like she’s praying to get out one day. Who knows?
I have my own theory if you care to read.
The collar around Miku's neck is only exclusive to her, and it might even be an indirect sign that she could have self-harmed or killed herself by hanging.
In the scene where she gets herself 'hypnotised' with her tongue out and black eyes, her collar gets removed and her neck has a purple/red shade instead of a darker version of her skin colour. Those are bruises, most likely a strain on the neck as a result of hanging.
As the MV goes on, her skin gets paler and paler with every scene swap, and in the final scene where Miku and Teto are standing side by side, Miku is as pale as a ghost, and has a purple-y hue to her face (a symptom that everyone experiences when they die).
I think in the beginning, before the hypnosis, Miku was alive, but she eventually killed herself because of how long she had to keep her emotions and thoughts at bay because of the ad's production.
The collar that was on her since the beginning could indirectly represent a noose and her eventual decision of suicide. She was too pressured to be perfect for social media, so she ended up committing suicide, as stated in the first scene shown with Miku complaining about being trapped and needing an escape.
Drawing your attention to her clothing, her outfit looks like something a maid or waitress would wear, so it could suggest that Miku she always listens to others' commands and wishes instead of acting independently (peer pressure on social media that caused her suicide). Miku's corpse was probably found over during the 10 days of the attempted hypnosis on Teto, so the producer had enough time to turn Miku's corpse into a puppet without Teto ever finding about Miku's death. Another detail is that Miku's clothing has cuffs with black buttons/holes on her wrists. Those buttons/holes could have been laced or threaded with something (like string) to make Miku a Corpse Puppet. You can also infer with the 'Maid outfit' that she is easily controlled by others _like a puppet_.
Miku is still technically new to social media, so she will be more likely to be tricked by the people there, as she sees them as trustworthy because the media made her popular in the first place, whereas Teto isn’t exactly that popular and a lot of people forget about her, which is probably why she didn’t get hypnotised as easily as Miku did. Miku is wearing rollerskates, meaning she is more easy to trip and trick than Teto, who wears normal shoes.
In the scene where Miku 'loses her mind', her collar gets removed for a few frames due to an unknown reason (which I assume to be the puppet stings moving Miku's corpse around), and those are the frames where Miku does a new pose, while her mouth goes wide open and her eyes dilate (sign of being hung) so I think that the collar was keeping her mouth closed and her neck stable. After the colour was ripped off, the producer probably scrambled to put the collar on Miku as she ripped it off, not being able to secure it back on properly (which explains the unnatural movements or thickening and thinning in her neck, and also why her mouth is wide open). A hanged person's neck isn't stable enough to hold itself together, which is why her neck thickens and thins over the course of her mindless, offbeat dance with Teto.
Teto clearly didn't know about Miku's death, considering her genuine shock/horror at the reveal and over the course of the song. She only found out about Miku's death as the collar was removed. The producer (who probably put the collar back on) didn't have enough time to fix Miku's mouth back in place, so they instead decided to use an excessive amount of confetti so the camera couldn't focus on how dead Miku looked. Miku's arm bends backwards a few times with no wince or reaction of pain. Her eyes don't blink which shows how lifeless she actually is. The deseased can't blink due to having their brain (and muscles) inactive.
Think about it, if you were a producer and one of your MC's just hung themselves whilst in the middle of making the ad of escapism, you would try to hide their death, especially because some people view peer pressure on social media as something against escapism (the main plot of the ad).
Also take notice that a part when miku dances right before her hypnosis her limbs are bent in humanly. And teto was probably calling for help because she knew about the hypnosis in the beginning.
Part of bouquet decorated with words Teto is making help sign
I'm definitely overthinking this, but something else for the thumbnail:
If you were to put all three elements in a line, with Teto at the front, then the trideshape, with Mike at the back, Teto would see us/the audience (the people she was trying to warn to prevent them from getting hypnotised), but Miku would just see the trideshape because she's already been consumed by it.
I think the thing about Miku's rollerskates isn't that deep. She wears it because she's a waitress/server judging from her outfit. While Teto is like a manager or something idk the position name
The Higher-Up? Also, I think that won’t make sense that much but just my opinion.
1. The thumbnail of the normal video has miku and teto making an s with their hands and the thing that makes us get hypnotized aka the thing in the middle makes an O so they are basicly saying "SOS"
2. 1:37 in this part teto does "HELP" in sign language and miku looks like she would be praying or saying "PLEASE" so they are basicly saying "HELP PLEASE"
3. 2:12 teto says "Someone please help" meaning bothe miku and teto needs help
4. 2:41 the first capital letters in the quiz spells out "HELP" meaning they still need some help.
5. 2:51 miku moves with the screen like somthing is making miku look at a thing moving that eventually makes her hypnotized, but teto does not even move a inch. Her hair just flys though
6. 3:10 teto looks very scared but miku looks shocked
The rest of what happend is
hers/his and the parts i mentioned.
Hi! I mentioned most of these in part 2 and 3, but thanks for your input!!
(Long text)My theory: they are being forced to do this, so someone tried to use a hypnosis on them, miku was more easier to be hypnotized, but teto no, and maybe she was Pretending to be hypnotized, this background is a effect of the hypnosys (maybe) and the green screen can be the real scenario, about the lyrics:miku is hypnotized so her lyrics can be like that because of the hypnosis, teto is trying to help her to be back at the reality and get out of hyponosis, teto saying "recommended for you like that! THE ULTIMATE ESCAPE!!!" Like she is calling for help, waiting for a escape opportunity. 1:33 people said that the hand that teto is making is a sign of help. 1:59 the blinking of teto in morse code. 2:06 a "bug" maybe? Teto cmaybe is being controlled. 2:43 the quiz part making HELP and SOS. 2:53 miku moves with the screen, her pupils get "darker", 3:03 teto is with a eyes without "life" *without the shine on the eye* on miku part there is no wind, on teto part is with a little bit of wind, the background is changing, like it is a bug or something with the hypnosis. The green screen making it look like they are actors, but teto is too "shocked" to be a actor, miku is confused and maybe is "coming out" of hypnosis, while teto is with this face because these people are noticing that she is not on the hypnosis. 3:48 why the blue background become darker? 4:25 teto is scared (i think) and miku is alredy totally (maybe) hypnotized, because of her lifeless eyes *without the shine* and her pupil is totally black. 5:22 this part is hard to see put if you put on the x2.5, you can see teto pupils are totally black, so maybe she has hypnotized. If you notice, along the video teto was losing her shine on the eyes,like 0:34 her pupils are normal, still with a shine. at 3:37 her pupils dont have so much shine than before, so her pupils are not normal, at 4:24 she loses her shine on the eye.
i think when teto say the ultimate escape she went like try to make a plan to not get hypnotized?
and also, mikus eye is dark because hypnotis same for teto at 8:14 and 8:22
2:41 teto signals for help right here (quiz AND hands)
You can see after quiz time teto asked for help in sign language
What I think is that Teto and Miku were hired by a company to do a commercial but the company likes the actors and decided they want they to preform more so they hypnotize they to stay and do more. Teto knows what’s going on tries to get help from the audience but Miku does not know what’s going on and thinks it’s a normal commercial which is why Miku doesn’t resist when they hypnotize her cause she thinks it’s all part of the show.
have you seen the theory that it's about the idol industry yet? it's pretty cool :D
