the wishper how did I not notice it before
just to clarify, because the japanese person wanted to explain, but this is how i view it– the song is about a trans boy! he likes men, but society keeps viewing him as a girl, and therefore just a mutated straight woman (). he is dating a (cis) man (from what i can tell in the lyrics) and to everyone else, he's prying on him. he's intruding in his life by "pretending to be a boy" so the gay man would date him (
💗💗💗💗💜💜💙💙💙I love the execution of this line so much. The feel, texture and layered emotion //it can't really be put into words well - how it feels
It's not a mutation; it is just who I amStory of my life
Not sure if anyone mentioned this: in you can see some France/German. "Einige psychische Folgen des anatomischen Geschlechtsunterschieds" (Some Psychical Consequences of the Anatomical Distinction between the Sexes) a writing by Sigmund Freud who formulated theories such as the Oedipus complex and much more. You probably know him! Anyways, the writing mentioned in the MV exhibits Freud's "image of women" and "female sexuality" and at some point he describes a "Penis envy" and "Castration anxiety". It's way too much and complex for me to grasp it completely, so I'm just leaving it here for the smart people to do whatever they want with that information haha! I think i'ts very fitting to the theories of this MV :)
This song seems to be about a trans woman/non binary person. There's several texts in the MV pointing to this such as the German text at which is cut off, but can be roughly translated to:"....readings to introduction into psychoanalysissome psychological consequences of the anatomical Gender difference...symbols of change."Along with just the general lyrics about how they feel like they need to "pretend to be a boy in front of you" and also the very obvious lines like "X or Y.." "Do not be afraid, a Wide Variety of Genders." "Keeping the deviant gender secret." "Nobody knows, I don't want anybody to know under my skin." "For unrelated people I am a villain." and so on...Note how they never really specifically talk about any sort of special person, in general they mean that's how they have to act towards "normal people" in society. That along with the visual symbolism of how they switch between hair colors to show how they change genders when needed. At the start of the MV, their hair is red symbolizing female colors, but notice how there's smudges of blue blood/paint on their face as well. When they say the "pretend to be a boy in front of you" line instead they smear the blue blood/paint into their hair to symbolize how they are presenting as a male at that time. That coupled with the stop and go sign also showing how they switch between the genders whenever they need to. They're a "Mr. Crazy Villain Villain" because that's what society sees them as, they don't look at them as the gender or lack thereof that they want to be presented as, but only as some delusional freak, a villain.
How comes no one is talking about ? This sounds so awesome. (I also feel like it sounds arabic or something - it is Japanese but it just does not sound Japanse)
People who can read French or German: "It's showtime"
Well I really love 💖
i love this quiet anger

i don't know what gender this character really is, but their face in is so hot 😳
). the song is about how he struggles with these views and the idea that he's "the villian" (also, the japanese word for villian looks a lot like the english word for girl; multiple people pointed this out), until he eventually comes to terms with it all and accepts the fact that people may always think he's something/someone he isn't (

The text at looks like girl in english
haven't seen anyone mention this yet but at when the word for 'villain' appears over the protagonist's face, it's done in such a way that it very specifically censors the blue stain on the corner of their mouth as well as the tear mark on their cheek. basically symbolizing how, when labeling someone a villain, society purposefully ignores the signs of any suffering they may be going through (edit: fixed the timestamp)
and
God I love the heavenly effect he gives at . It’s not in the original but it’s amazing
bruh that part slapped and i cant stop listening to this
Two years late, but at holy, that is a rough tone right there in his sentence and especially on "villain."

just an example of the reasons why i believe this is a gay trans ftm person : ''Keeping my deviated nature (gender) a secret again'' the person in the mv is wearing boy clothing presenting themselves as a more masculine person. so if they are keeping their gender at birth a secret ( female ) then it makes sense because they're presenting themself as a man. that's just a small example of why i believe that :) ocean eyes ;; in the comments did a good job at giving other reasons :)

He plays with voice tone so good omg
I think the illustration of a fish () in an aquarium refers to the fact that some species of fish change sex when they need to. This is considered the norm, the law of nature. But for people who also need to change their sex, consider themselves someone else, most still treat as abnormal.
I'd like to mention that at [ ] we see a blue fish in a red fisktank. And as another commenter already mentioned; In Japan a lot of the time red is associated with girls and blue is associated with boys. Basically showing that he is a boy, trapped inside a girls body. Or thats how i would like to interpret it at the very least.
i looked into ranpo edogawa a bit and found out he was one of the earlier japanese writers that portrayed homosexuality in his writings! he did lots of research about same sex love in history and stories and thought it needed to be better understood. not sure if that was the reference the lyrics were making but thought that was a cool thing anyways!
i dunno if this is a coincidence with the art or not, but It looks like he has a cut on his wrist like he was either self-harming, or trying to commit suicide at for that scene idk
That "so what" in hits hard dang

くらいからさぁイヤホンで聴いてると右からずっとポテチって言ってるように聞こえるんだけど……
(this has nothing to do with the explaination, but, is a really important message. i think the lyrics here are quite beautiful. so, remember them. this song is dedicated to the great villians)

GOD. He's my religion
Una canción sobre la homofobia de un chico trans.. Miyuu transmitió muy bien el mensaje !! Lo que hizo que este cover se volviera mi favorito 💕😎 Me encanta y a veces me desconcierta el hecho de que Miyashita en algunas ocasiones tenga un voz tan aguda y dulce y de pronto lo escuches con una voz profunda y masculina 😳 en serio no hay palabras que describan esto. Sensacional. Épico. Increíble !!!!! 🛐 que potencia y energía !!!! Ame mucho esto y la risa del final !! WOOWWW !!!
and from then forth). the stop lights could also be a hint to this). anyways, the facts he has to face are sad, but true, and the important part is that he knows who/what he is, and that no one can tell him otherwise.
best part
YEARS LATE BUT LISTEN TO THE SCREAM THOUGH AT IN THE BACKGROUND
is legit just us screaming in the background
I love the "Dr. Duran Duran, I am here!" at the cover overall was absolutely amazing but I especially love this part
-
how he sang this line followed by a laugh i–
i love this part
for myself
just sounds too perfect I love how he says the lines 😭
HIS LAUGH OH MY GOSH MY HEART AAAAA 😩❤️
THAT LAU G H
anyone else notice the immediate feel change in the melody??
the way he said "ここだよ" omg
*melts*
I mean, if you wanted to stop my heart.. You could’ve asked nicely and I would’ve complied-
something abt how he sings the “koko da yo” @ is so good
that "kokodayo~" () got me feeling some type of way^^
the way he sang "kokodayo" at was so good omgg
ここの笑い声が好きなんだ
の「ここだよ～」良すぎます
this part is addicting
). i'd also like to add that people often associate red with female and blue with male, and throughout the entire video, when he is doubting himself, his hair is red. only when he accepts himself as a man does his hair turn blue (he also looks happy when his hair is blue (
ラスサビのヴィランが力強くなってるのが悪役を演じてる感じがして最高
うん、死んだね、私。うん。
I never thought I would be listening to someone say “villain” on repeat but here I am
hits different, such a good part that it gives me goosebumps lmao
