When I first time heard this song, I first think Lithium is just a chemical element. But then I listen to the words and think it cant be just that! I mean, it wouldn't make any sense. So, I picket up dictionary and found out this; (pharmaceutical drug) Lithium carbonate or other preparations of lithium metal used to treat manic depression and bipolar disorders.
And since I've studied psychology I knew what that mean and certain character popped in my mind. A character, what suited perfectly in that explaining. Then the idea hit me and it bugged me so long I just have to do this video.
I tried my best follow the lyrics and I think I actually could do it. Just listen to the lyrics; that tell itself a really sad story, where Fai and Kurogane are perfect actors to play in it.
I choose Tokyo arc happening, because it suit more than perfect in this situation. I use Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations episodes and manga episodes which take place in Acid Tokyo. Why, you ask? Because if I had use only other one, I would have run out of material and I wanted sort of compare those with each others.
The lithium, in this video is a blood which is a key for changing. You all probably know how much Fai disliked turning vampire, right? Well, the songs tells how he doesnt want take this medicine, because he want stay like he was. All happy and pretending. He scares it will lock him up and he will forgot how it was before it (You know how angsty he turned, so you get the point. In this Fai knows it.), but he still wants to get rid of it, because its all false, not true.
I think the song shows really well how Fai is truly and how Kurogane has seen through him all the time and how he wants help him, but he isnt ready to say those words. But as you know in storyline of Tsubasa Fai doesnt want take blood, which is his only rescue.
Oh, and when the song is preferring how cold, dark Fai is and such things and you see him smiling happily and all, dont think I make a mistake or sort. Since he is actually then really cold and all; he hides everything behind that false smile so I guessed it would suit really well at that point.
The end of video, Fai finally decide take his medicine, begging Kurogane to stay in love with him, what ever will happen, since its sure he will change. And in the end, where Fai says those famous words it shows well how he has changed.
Also, I let some text scenes in manga scenes in purpose.
Yes, the song is pretty explaining itself and Im sure you'll get it when you listen to the lyrics and watch the video. ^^
