@TheMightyPrussia Y'know, she's not necessarily Miku. She might just be a random girl with pigtails... + she didn't die, her dreams were just taken from her.
In an abstract sense, the song seems to be saying that happiness can't exist without sorrow. She wanted her nightmares to disappear, but this eventually led to her dreams disappearing as well. That's my interpretation, anyway...
This, along with other vocaloid songs, has inspired me to re-write several fairy-tales, myths, legends, and folk-lore. I am working on the one based off a young girl, ignoring her dead father's advice, makes a bargain with a "Baku", as the japanese term sates, to rid her of nightmares about her father's death. Sadly, she ends up lifeless because the baku is only not just eating the nightmares, but eating her hopes and dreams.
@KiwiTheHedgehog well, how about you just stay away from this? Also, just because they said that doesn't mean they're saying they are japanese. They're just telling you if you want to understand, learn the language
this is exactly what I HATE. peolpe judge anime,vocaloids and such so quickly and mark it as "lame or, "stupid". they don't understand the language and give up on it.
@Ruizakastel come up with a better comeback, lazy asshole! :D if you're gonna call me lazy for not speaking japanese, why not call me lazy for not speaking every language in the world?! fucking shit damn bitch weeaboo wannabe
@kawaiiusagi33 no, he got rid of all her bad dreams and gave her good ones, then when the contract was over, reality hit all at once and she was overwhelmed by it :) just my interpretation tho
I get the song! Len eats all her dreams as he promised ,to the point that she can't dream anymore. When he says "Welcome to this Monochrome World!" he means "Welcome to bleak, colorless reality!" Because w/o dreams and imagination the world is boring. :D So...did I get it right?
@miku644 I think that she can no longer fulfill her dreams. As in they won't be able to come true, thus seeming more devastating. That would indeed be monochrome, not being able to fulfill any of your 'dreams' ... just my opinion though...
@GimmeTheCheezIts Well Len is a Baku, which means he eats peoples dreams and nightmares, so he makes the deal with that girl, and eats all her dreams, and there contract (which she agreed to when they did a pinky promise) expires on the full moon, and Im guessing Len ate all her dreams and Nightmares, so she would never have any again, or something like that =3
@miruhinyan She became a broken being. After living her dreams and experiencing them, she realized that they were just what they were: dreams. All her hopes and dreams could enver come true, so she had to face the real world; the monochrome world without the color of excitement.
I like to think that it's a metaphor for people who always get what they without even trying, who's 'paradise' eventually becomes 'bottomless' because they keep wanting more, but eventually they either get bored of everything (hence the monochrome world) or they run out of money or something and they are exposed to the 'reality'.
I think it's about a tapir(Len) who meets this girl who always has bad dreams. So Len then eats those bad dreams for her so she won't have to have them anymore. Soon, the girl keeps asking for Len to eat all her bad dreams and only give her good ones. When their contract is over, Len takes the girl to his monochrome world.
At first, the girl is innocent; she uses a pinky promise. Next it's kissing. Then she's told to “expose her lust”, as dust clears from the picture. I think this is her innocence being taken away. She can't hide in ignorance any more. Also, the lunar cycle links in with menstruation – which is the first sign of puberty in girls. It's also known to screw around with emotions and hormones, which is why she goes through various moods throughout the song. Thus – couldn't the speaker be menarche?
@j3llyb3ar7 ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh len sexier ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh in this song he kind of does but if u want to see a pic of len that is soooooooooooooooooooooo cute (hot) look up "len is a shota" and u will no what pic im talking about when u see it
I've geaard tht in Japanese mythology, tapirs come and eat bad dreams. I don't know how accurate this is, but the fact that Len's cane resembles a tapir kinda makes me think it's true. Does antone know if this fact is true?
@BastettheCatGoddess From what I can tell by reading the wikipedia, "baku" means both tapir, and a type of spirit that comes and eats dreams. Because of this, bakus have been depicted as tapirs. So I think Len's cane resembles one because it's some sort of wordplay.
@BastettheCatGoddess Judging by the fact that the Pokemon Drowzee, Hypno, Munna, and Musharna all have to do with eating dreams and tapirs, I would say yes. XD
So addictive! ^^ btw, u made a translation error at the 2 lines from 2:35 to 2:39.
Instead of "I won't refuse, you know?" it should be "Since it's now a full moon"
and for the next line, "A Replacement", it should be "Our contract is over."
So instead of" I won't refuse you know, a replacement.", it's actually "Since it's now a full moon, our contract is over". :) Len is so mean to the girl lols. :P
