I wonder was he inspired by Pans Labyrinth with this? It reminds me of it lol..oh well..I remember when I first saw this lol...Idk how old I was but this is giving me nostalgia.
I can't believe this is what passed for "deep" my freshman year. Confusing words and shotty images of bloody anime chicks. Ohh beginning adolescent self.
@isis211 Sorry to reply to a eight month old comment, but I only got to know this video (or originally flash) existed just moments ago. Neither did I know there was a second version. Do you know anywhere of which it can be found? And do you know the reason of Emi's disappearance?
i understand most of this but i do have a few questions, were her parents already dead or did that happen later, why did the shadow want her unborn brother and a 0:14 why was she carrying a bloody blanket, why did the shadow want poison from the tower, what did the girl mean at 1:46 when she said "the gates of my keep" and the shadow says "this child will never know the embrace of your fortress" at 1:52, and at the end did she ask the shadow to turn back time so that this had never happened?
@Friends4LIfe121995 no, her parents were alive, she killed them. and he wanted her unborn brother so he couldent grow up and be a man like no other. she was carrying a bloody blanket cause it held her brother. he didn't want poison, she USED poison to kill her parents. "the gates at my keep" means "my house" basically. and the shadow said that cause he has the boy now, and he won't go back to the girls house. no, she did not, she basically told him to go die
Emi Greneby says this on Newgrounds, where she originally uploaded the video: "Based on the amount of reviews, I feel there is need for some (even further) explanation of stuff: .....5. I didnt have any political thoughts with this movie... Whatever happens in the movie does not have anything to do with my political views on anything. Its just a story.
6. I am not a Goth. I am not Emo. I just like writing stories. I hate being labeled."
@screaming4cookies .. oo i get it.. when he said go to the darkest place with no light.. she woudn't be able to see her own shadow...
but it still doesnt explain why it wanted her brother dead? she said she wanted to have a friend to play with all day long.... so it kinda contradicts
I saw this for the very first time on Newgrounds. And I was so blown away by the beautiful use of words, art, and story line. Lilium fits it very well too. It actually almost made me feel like I could cry. No video has done that before.
sadly its been tooken off of newgrounds unless its a prank but i checked other ones and it dosent say the same thing... glad i figured out about its existence before it got deleated.

in the author comments it says "dont judge her before you get to know her"
she killed both her parents and brought her unborn brother to a giant shadow thing, i think it's ok to judge her O_O

My all time favorite NG flash. Pretty goth girl, goth music off a great anime (Elfin Lied) and best storyline. Awesome

Emi emailed me Lilium 2 before she disappeared, she told me not to share it because the first one got too much publicity for her to handle. D:
