Theyre so pretty... •Ib, your hairs so silky. Why isnt mine like that? And Garrys is all soft! Is everybodys different? Oh yeah, I met somebody who didnt have hair once, so I drew them some with crayon... That was fun! I should show you some time, Ib! •Why dont those No-Personality statues have heads? Did they leave them somewhere? I wanna draw them heads, but theres nowhere to draw... •All I have are crayons, but I want to try oil painting some day! Like my dad! •I wonder where dad is...
I mean, look at the other side of the coin. You're stuck in an art gallery with no one to talk to but paintings. No one to guide you. No one to show you what is good and what is bad. What's the point? You aren't living anyway. You're just a painting. A painting that wants to live in the real world. A painting that wants to have a family. One day, you finally do! :O But, you don't like the guy that's staying with her. There's only one way to escape. That's to kill. Finally...freedom...
What made me sad was burning Mary's house/stuff. I really didn't want to, infact I felt REALLLY sorry for Mary. All she wanted was to be real also and have actual friendships with Ib and Garry and not just some creepy dolls. Let's be a painting friend, embrace it well, make sure it stays hung centered in the Gallery for all to see, all to witness Mary's greatness! That's another thing I wanted!!! At the good end when you escape with Garry the least they could've done was give Mary her OWN painting with a FAMILY!!!!!!! >.
Another good ending that fans made is that Garry stayed in the painting and let Ib and Mary escape. After sometime time, Garry manage to find a way out on his own and soon found Ib and Mary again being much older that before. Since time never past in the painting Garry stayed the same and he and Ib became lovers and Mary is Ib best friend.. The End
I can't be the only wan who strongly empathized with Mary, can I? I mean, just look at it from her perspective. Her whole life, ever since she was painted by Gary, all she could do was stare out of the painting at all the real people. As they talked about their day at the fair, how good that coffee was, where they'll go after the gallery... She just wanted that too. Mary wanted to have friends and experience those things. So she did what she had to do to live like the other people, instead of being trapped in the Gallery forever. You've got to remember; she was trapped in there since she was painted, which has to be many years since Gary had died a long time ago. I know that people really loved Gary, and since she (attempted) to kill him, that's why you hate her, but I can tell where she's coming from and why she did it. The poor thing. ):
One does not simply listen to this song in the middle of the night. It's just one of those songs that brings calmness and serenity in day and complete madness and fear during the night.
Welcome to my world that's painted with sadness There's no light of sun There you can't hear any sound at all Here I'm waiting silently for you, father Why you were so cruel to left poor Mary alone? lalala... Please take me away, I desperately promise to be a good girl, to be worthy of your love I don't need the paint books, the dolls and the dresses, Just tell me, why you've left your pictures and gone? lalala... Who are you, stranger with a red rose in your hand I liked you from the first sight, I wanna be your friend, Let's play I've never asked for this place that's called my home, But hope, you will be staying with me until the end lalala... Please, don't be scared of me I'm a good girl I just want to be with you to forget my sorrow I'm tired of being the puppet of this world Oh, tell me, why do you want to go with this man? lalala... Is he your true knight in the shining armor? Who'll sacrifice himself just for your sake with no fear But then Why he resembles the one, who created This gallery and picture, that gave me a birth? lalala... MY TEARS ARE FALLING, WHY IT'S SO PAINFUL? I DID NOTHING WRONG, SO WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO MUCH? THIS BURNING CANVAS BECAME YOUR CRUEL ANSWER AND NOW FLAMES UNSPARINGLY KISS ME GOODNIGHT. lalala... Welcome to her world that's lying in ashes... There's a sea of fire, There is no way to run at all... She only wanted to be with her father... But little Mary is melting in her abyss alone... "I'm coming, father..."
I feel bad for Mary.... yes she was a little crazy, but could you blame her? She was trapped in a gallery all her life..... and the only way for her to get out was if someone stayed....
Welcome To My World That's painted with sadness There's no light of sun and u can't hear Any sound at all Here I'm waiting silently for u father,Why were u so Cruel to leave poor Mary alone Please take me away I desperately promise To be a good girl,to be worthy of Your love WHO IS THIS STRANGER WITH RED ROSE IN Her hand THE TEARS ARE FALLIMG WHY IS IT SO PAINFULL I DID NOTHING WRONG SO WHY DO U HATE ME SO MUCH .... Welcome to her world that's lying in ashes There's. A sea of fire no way to run at all She only wanted to be with her father But little Mary is lying In her Abbys alone...
The life of Mary: You see yourself finally painted in such a sweet color, the blond compliments you well and the green dress is quite stunning. Looking at the wooden stool your painter usually sat it seems empty, yet you can't help but notice the thing beside it, an old man by the name of Guertena lays on the dark Pine wood floor as the mundane red of the walls looks at him in unison with you. Several years pass and a little girl in red and a tall man in blue enter an art exhibition...
That's a good point. For all we know, Garry and Ib might not be the only people trapped in the gallery. After all, Garry and Ib are just two random people. What would make them so special that they were the only ones who entered the painting world? Either Mary did not know of other parties within the gallery, or she did not want to risk losing the only party she had found so far.
I know I'm really late, but could it be because both of them are blonde, have blue eyes and are not mentally stable? (I don't think Alois is anywhere close near stable) Also in the picture Mary sticks her tongue out and Alois does it a lot so that's why you thought that??
Mary cares about other people. She really just doesn't know how to show how. The crayon paintings she made of Ib, Gary and herself in the crayon world art gallery made me tear up. The very fact she wanted to leave that world even though she's an almighty presence in it and can control anything and make anything bend to her will, and instead make real friends in the real world, shows that she cares. In Together Forever, she'd have proper parents and understand what it meant to be human.
Nowdays , I record each of the character's theme in my phone . At night I'll always listen to them to make me fall asleep :) They're songs are so nice ...
For everyone who thinks they're the only ones feeling sorry for Mary...We're all are , I think we should petition Kouri for a sequel in which we get to resurrect and save Mary and also we get the whole story of the gallery's and Ib's connection explained.
I really can't help it... she's growing on me. I used to dislike her, but people convinced me to try to voice her and I ended up liking her more. She was pretty misunderstood. She just wanted friends, and she took out Garry because she was feeling threatened by him, since she didn't want Ib to leave without her. I can imagine she felt bad about it, but didn't show it. I also loved how in the game, the mirror cracks if you try to look at it when you're with Mary.
IK the lyrics to this .3. Welcome to my world thats painted with sadness Theres no light of sun there you can't hear any sound at all Here I'm waiting silently for you father Why were you so cruel to leave poor Mary alone? Thats just the beginning...
Oh fine I'll do a bit more.. Please take me away I desperately promise to be a good girl To be worthy of your love I don't need the paintbooks, the dolls, and the dresses Just tell me why you've left your pictures and gone?
Who Are You Stranger With The Red Rose In Your Hand I Liked You From The First Sight I Wanna Be Your Friend, Let's Play I Never Asked For This Place That's Called My Home, But I Hope You Will Be Staying With Me Untill The End Please Don't Be Scared Of Me I'm A Good Girl I Just Want To Be With You To Forget My Sorrow I'm Tired Of Being The Puppet Of This World Oh Tell Me Why Do You Want To Go With This Man Is He Your True Knight In The Shining Armour, Who'd Sacrafice Himself Just For Your Sake With No Fear? But Then.. Why He Resembles The One Who Created... This Gallery And Picture That Gave Me A Birth? My Tears Are Falling Oh Why It's So Painful? I Did Nothing Wrong So Why Do You Hate Me So Much? This Burning Canvas Became Your Cruel Answer So Now Flames Unsparingly Kiss Me Goodnight _Welcome To Her World That's Lying In Ashes, There's A Sea Of Fire There's No Way To Run At All.. She Only Wanted To Be With Her Father, But Little Mary Is Melting In Her Abyss ALONE_
She is so adorable and the music totally suits her! Poor thing though...being trapped for so long! I don't blame her for going crazy. She has a good heart!
I feel bad for Mary. I mean, she did kind of kill Garry in the Forgotten painting, but she was lonely and she was doing everything to get out of the painting to explore the world. She was the most lonely of all of the characters. She had no-one. No-one had seen her exept ib and Garry.
Yeah, y'know It brought a big smile to my face seeing Mary so happy in that ending, I cried, I was like "Omg Mary escaped Yaaaaaay!" but then I realized what happened to Garry, I was sad and cried then I got happy again!
It's rather that she is a creation, so... well, she doesn't know how the world she step in works. Rather, she doesn't understand. She's a poor girl anyway, in my opinion.
this is going to be the first song I learn on piano. So next time my choir class is all crazy I can sneak over to the piano and start creepily playing this and everyone will get silent and look at me and I'll just sit there playing my music softly and eerily. XD its gonna be great
Because she can't leave the gallery with her body, so she has to kill someone from the outside world and take their body so that she can leave, see the real world, and have friends. The only people from the outside world available to her were Ib and Garry; and even though she liked them, her only choice was to kill one of them to see the outside world.
It's strange. The more I try to word my feelings, the more complex it becomes. This song numbs your mind. It makes you feel regret. But a part of you is selfishly happy that Mary is free. And as you listen, your mind begins to spin around. The memories of the horrors pierce your heart, coursing a sad, painfully nostalgic fear. Turning your blood turn into paint, using the music as a canvas of despair, until you awaken to yourself. Try as I might, my fingertips replay this cycle. I cannot escape
ok I will say I do think mary is rally cool and stuff but really do we have to kill mary to get the good ending D: she just what'd the real world and to have friends :/ ill be marys friend :D
Aeir Soulhaven im pretty sure she does, they are in her reality, this is probably not gurtenas world at all, its most likely marys, view on everything he's done, if guertena wanted these painting to live i think they wouldnt go killing or plucking the life ouyt of people
I could do anything in my fathers world, well... almost anything... None of the figures or paintings talked to me, they were fun to play with, but not a single word would come out... Then they just stoped playing with me... I was getting so lonely, I wished someone would come, just so i could hear their voice, and then Ib and Garry came! It was the happiest day in my life, even if I never get out, I'll remember the time i spent with them forever...
Haha, yup. I'm a wired person if you haven't already noticed. I don't know, I guess I just like the fact of A girl liking another girl. I guess that kind of makes sense though because i'm bi.
I agree. I don't really ship Garry and Ib though because of the age difference. I just thought that Since Ib and Mary were the same age (Probably the same age) that they would maybe be A good ship. Mary does seem to have an obsession over Ib though..
...Together, Forever. Notice how she makes sure you never remember Garry or that other world. You have candy? She eats. You have lighter? She throws away. I'm pretty sure that she remembers the other world...
Strangely enough, no. You're not alone. Not that I understand how you can't sympathize. It's probably because Garry's with you 3/4 of the game whereas Mary's with you for, like, an 1/8 as a member of your party. But even so...
No, and that's how you know she's a well- made character. Or a poorly- made character. Most likely the former, assuming you didn't sympathize because she tried to kill Garry, who, like Aeir Soulhaven mentioned, was with you for a large chunk of the game, including the secret area.
Kaiser Dragon You forgot about the waffles... THE WAFFLES MATTER IT'S NOT COMPLETE WITHOUT THEM. And I don't burn blonde people I love blonde people. Mary's an exception. Plus she's not a person so it doesn't count.
That's Kouri's intention from the beginning, yes. Mary is determined to be the antagonist in the story. I think Kouri just focus on showing Ib and Garry's relationship in the "Promise of Reunion".
in the game over's screen, the music that play is called " The Little Doll's Dream". I think it mean that, when Ib die, Mary take her place in the real world (in the game you can read something Mary writed talking about that)
It's funny. Mary's tragedy wounded my heart in my childhood, and 10 years later I'd find that very same wound torn open by a very similar brunette woman, with a very similar tragedy. I suppose there's not much difference between oil on a canvas and a dark puddle of ink. All you need to do is move your hand...
Mary is one of the Guetera's paintings. Her plan was to kill someone, anyone, who got trapped in the other gallery, and then using the void opened in the real world to escape. When she got out everyone's memory was changed to include her, and she wound up being included as Ib's younger sister.
Of all other games , this game has the BEST story line ! There's also different endings , most of them are sad , which is AMAZING ! I WANT TO DOWNLOAD THIS GAME ! :D
I feel for her as well, but ignorance is never an excuse. Imagine post-game if she gets out. " she doesn't know how the world she step in works" I feel bad for her and what would happen, and what she would do, not knowing its wrong
I respect your opinion and this being the only game so far to make me cry. I say that Mary got what she deserved. But that's coming from a major fan of Gary. I loved the game, this soundtrack is my favourite of all time. But ya, I think Mary is alright in some scenarios but in others shes an evil conniving back stabber. But that's just my opinion, A girl who wants to get out but does it in the wrong fashion.
It depends on the person who played it. If they liked Mary, it could be considered good. Most people consider it the bad ending since basically Mary could be considered the antagonist. And possibly the only reason Ib looked happy was because her memory was erased, just like in the other endings. The thing that really got to most people to make it considered a bad ending, is 1) Garry died and 2) Mary eats the candy Garry gave Ib.
It dawned on me. You have to go through the sketchbook, the part of the "other" gallery that Mary controls, to escape back into the real world. That would mean before Mary became sentient and created the sketchbook there was no way for anyone who got trapped to escape as all there was in that area was a black void. If you think that way, Mary seems a lot darker. To escape you have to go through her world where she can try and kill you and get out herself.
Garry is real. He can find him observing 'The Hanged Man' painting in the beginning. His dialogue to Ib before he 'falls asleep' is him trying to spare her feelings, since she's just a little girl and might not understand what death is.
if you play through the game and have garry alive at the end when you jump through the painting, the mom will appear and attempt to keep you in the painted world. if you choose to go with the mom, garry will scream at you and ask what you are doing as you are walking away with her. The screen will go static for an instant and you'll see ib walking away by herself. This probably means that shes ib's illusion and the garry that appears when you try to jump through alone is also an illusion.
When I saw the gallery at the beginning, I thought the game had the worst graphics ever. But I kept playing, and to my surprise, Ib is now my favourite game.
Somewhere in the game there was a book that appears to be a sort of journal for the artist. In there he explained that some of the best works of art are ones that people put their entire souls into. So then after, he said he would put his soul into each and every work he created. Perhaps this is why the gallery is alive. I have no idea why they're trying to kill you or why you got sucked in but that's just my theory on why it's alive in the first place.
A story without its author... A creation without its sculptor... An illustration without its artist... abandoned and alone... its spirit, wicked... its roots, crooked and twisted... longing for a purpose... longing....for a friend......
You can walk up to Garry when he's 'sleeping', switch the candy with the lighter, just completely ignore Mary's painting and then go back to the normal world.
She probably had to someone before, and odds are that the prior friends of hers couldn't find a way out of the "Kill or be Trapped Forever" deal, and I'd imagine that she probably resisted the urge the first few times around. By the way, yes, she does mention that others have come into the Fabricated World before Ib and Garry, so it isn't the first time.
I never thought of Mary as "evil". Imagine you were in her place. Stuck in a painting for thousands of years, until one day, you realize if you grab the rose, you can leave your painting. Then you realize that if somebody takes your place, you can become real. You are 9 years old forever in this world, but in the real world you can age properly, be a real person. You take Ib to be your relation in the real world, and you take Garry to take your place. She only wanted to have people who cared...
I agree. As well this is shown when you talk to Mary (when you and Garry split up because the Flowers of Jealousy) and she starts laughing insanely. Though I actually am sorry for her. You know, who wouldn't get insane after seeing all these visitors and realize that unless you kill somebody, you will never be like them...
I love Mary. I felt really bad for her in the end. She's just a lonely girl who is stuck in a fake world, and she desperately wants to be real. She wants to have parents and do things like experience snow. It's not her fault she has to take someone's place. Its selfish of her to want to become real at the cost of someone else, but she probably doesn't know the difference between right and wrong, and she was terribly lonely. Poor thing. I wish there was an ending where all 3 could be happy.
When I listen to this, I just start crying so much ;3; It's so touching Mary just wanted a friend but had to kill someone to be Real I love the ending " Together Forever " but I wish Garry would still be alive :'(
There other endings to Ib, ya know. One where Garry survives and remembers Ib in the real world and what happened in the Painting or "Other World". And...he promises Ib they'll see each other again soon..SO AWESOME!
Ib:Lost in a Random World Wanting to get out Gary:Lost in a Random World Finding a Girl And Doing Everything he can to get them both out, but he really cared about ib and would lose his life for her Mary:A Fake, But has a heart.She Always Wanted To Be Loved and Cared By Someone. But no ones loves Her.She Trys To Be a part of ib's Family. One of the Best games ever. Romantic/Creepy.

•I wonder where dad is...
Wow...👏👏👏
Wow that's alot
do never give up bro. i believe at you
That's dedication.
I mean, look at the other side of the coin.
You're stuck in an art gallery with no one to talk to but paintings. No one to guide you. No one to show you what is good and what is bad. What's the point? You aren't living anyway. You're just a painting. A painting that wants to live in the real world. A painting that wants to have a family.
One day, you finally do! :O But, you don't like the guy that's staying with her. There's only one way to escape. That's to kill.
Finally...freedom...
What made me sad was burning Mary's house/stuff. I really didn't want to, infact I felt REALLLY sorry for Mary. All she wanted was to be real also and have actual friendships with Ib and Garry and not just some creepy dolls. Let's be a painting friend, embrace it well, make sure it stays hung centered in the Gallery for all to see, all to witness Mary's greatness! That's another thing I wanted!!! At the good end when you escape with Garry the least they could've done was give Mary her OWN painting with a FAMILY!!!!!!! >.
Another good ending that fans made is that Garry stayed in the painting and let Ib and Mary escape. After sometime time, Garry manage to find a way out on his own and soon found Ib and Mary again being much older that before. Since time never past in the painting Garry stayed the same and he and Ib became lovers and Mary is Ib best friend.. The End
DarkLord3709 Sounds creepier than mlp fanfics.
DarkLord3709 I liked that ending until you got to the part of Garry and Ib being lovers. No...just no.
...Mary was a nice girl...Untill she went crazy...
Youre one to talk, little girl.
linkofhyrule96 exactly, you, Aya Drevis, went mad just like your father!
Aaaaaayaaaa... **Revs chainsaw**
*mini chainsaw* VROOM VROOOM!!
Isaiah Turner Ayayayaya! *slips past chainsaw by a millimeter*
I can't be the only wan who strongly empathized with Mary, can I? I mean, just look at it from her perspective. Her whole life, ever since she was painted by Gary, all she could do was stare out of the painting at all the real people. As they talked about their day at the fair, how good that coffee was, where they'll go after the gallery... She just wanted that too. Mary wanted to have friends and experience those things. So she did what she had to do to live like the other people, instead of being trapped in the Gallery forever. You've got to remember; she was trapped in there since she was painted, which has to be many years since Gary had died a long time ago.
I know that people really loved Gary, and since she (attempted) to kill him, that's why you hate her, but I can tell where she's coming from and why she did it. The poor thing. ):
She. Was painted by Weiss Guertena..
Renato Ortega ya which actually was Garry!!!!(I think that's what I heard her say in the music well close in off)
It is a fanmade song, Garry could be Guertena or Guertena's grandson. However it's mostly fan theories. Nice to find another person that likes Mary
Renato Ortega HEY!!!!I LIKE MARRY!!!She probably want some hugs!!!!😵
Renato Ortega I actually strongly prefer Mary to Garry. She just seems like a more well- developed character.
One does not simply listen to this song in the middle of the night.
It's just one of those songs that brings calmness and serenity in day and complete madness and fear during the night.
*Welcome to my world thats painted with sadness.....*
Sure, Mary was trapped and had no way of leaving other than trading places with Ib or Garry.
But she's also a painting.
She's a painting that came to life
Yep
Welcome to my world that's painted with sadness
There's no light of sun There you can't hear any sound at all
Here I'm waiting silently for you, father
Why you were so cruel to left poor Mary alone?
lalala...
Please take me away, I desperately promise to be a good girl, to be worthy of your love
I don't need the paint books, the dolls and the dresses,
Just tell me, why you've left your pictures and gone?
lalala...
Who are you, stranger with a red rose in your hand
I liked you from the first sight, I wanna be your friend, Let's play
I've never asked for this place that's called my home,
But hope, you will be staying with me until the end
lalala...
Please, don't be scared of me I'm a good girl
I just want to be with you to forget my sorrow
I'm tired of being the puppet of this world
Oh, tell me, why do you want to go with this man?
lalala...
Is he your true knight in the shining armor?
Who'll sacrifice himself just for your sake with no fear But then
Why he resembles the one, who created
This gallery and picture, that gave me a birth?
lalala...
MY TEARS ARE FALLING, WHY IT'S SO PAINFUL?
I DID NOTHING WRONG, SO WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO MUCH?
THIS BURNING CANVAS BECAME YOUR CRUEL ANSWER
AND NOW FLAMES UNSPARINGLY KISS ME GOODNIGHT.
lalala...
Welcome to her world that's lying in ashes...
There's a sea of fire, There is no way to run at all...
She only wanted to be with her father...
But little Mary is melting in her abyss alone...
"I'm coming, father..."
I feel bad for Mary.... yes she was a little crazy, but could you blame her? She was trapped in a gallery all her life..... and the only way for her to get out was if someone stayed....
Welcome To My World That's painted with sadness
There's no light of sun and u can't hear
Any sound at all
Here I'm waiting silently for u father,Why were u so
Cruel to leave poor Mary alone
Please take me away I desperately promise
To be a good girl,to be worthy of
Your love
WHO IS THIS STRANGER WITH RED ROSE IN
Her hand
THE TEARS ARE FALLIMG WHY IS IT SO PAINFULL
I DID NOTHING WRONG SO WHY DO U HATE
ME SO MUCH
....
Welcome to her world that's lying in ashes
There's. A sea of fire no way to run at all
She only wanted to be with her father
But little Mary is lying
In her Abbys alone...
The life of Mary:
You see yourself finally painted in such a sweet color, the blond compliments you well and the green dress is quite stunning. Looking at the wooden stool your painter usually sat it seems empty, yet you can't help but notice the thing beside it, an old man by the name of Guertena lays on the dark Pine wood floor as the mundane red of the walls looks at him in unison with you. Several years pass and a little girl in red and a tall man in blue enter an art exhibition...
I like Mary, all she wanted to do was make friends and see the outside world. But honestly, I like playing this song in a dark room on Halloween. >:3
That's a good point. For all we know, Garry and Ib might not be the only people trapped in the gallery. After all, Garry and Ib are just two random people. What would make them so special that they were the only ones who entered the painting world? Either Mary did not know of other parties within the gallery, or she did not want to risk losing the only party she had found so far.
I don't know but somehow Mary reminds me of Alois Trancy
Especially this picture: www.zerochan.net/1101030 ;p
I know I'm really late, but could it be because both of them are blonde, have blue eyes and are not mentally stable? (I don't think Alois is anywhere close near stable)
Also in the picture Mary sticks her tongue out and Alois does it a lot so that's why you thought that??
Mary cares about other people. She really just doesn't know how to show how. The crayon paintings she made of Ib, Gary and herself in the crayon world art gallery made me tear up. The very fact she wanted to leave that world even though she's an almighty presence in it and can control anything and make anything bend to her will, and instead make real friends in the real world, shows that she cares. In Together Forever, she'd have proper parents and understand what it meant to be human.
this is .. my favorite music box
Nowdays , I record each of the character's theme in my phone . At night I'll always listen to them to make me fall asleep :) They're songs are so nice ...
For everyone who thinks they're the only ones feeling sorry for Mary...We're all are , I think we should petition Kouri for a sequel in which we get to resurrect and save Mary and also we get the whole story of the gallery's and Ib's connection explained.
I really can't help it... she's growing on me. I used to dislike her, but people convinced me to try to voice her and I ended up liking her more. She was pretty misunderstood. She just wanted friends, and she took out Garry because she was feeling threatened by him, since she didn't want Ib to leave without her. I can imagine she felt bad about it, but didn't show it. I also loved how in the game, the mirror cracks if you try to look at it when you're with Mary.
IK the lyrics to this .3.
Welcome to my world thats painted with sadness
Theres no light of sun there you can't hear any sound at all
Here I'm waiting silently for you father
Why were you so cruel to leave poor Mary alone?
Thats just the beginning...
Oh fine I'll do a bit more..
Please take me away I desperately promise to be a good girl
To be worthy of your love
I don't need the paintbooks, the dolls, and the dresses
Just tell me why you've left your pictures and gone?
Who Are You Stranger With The Red Rose In Your Hand
I Liked You From The First Sight I Wanna Be Your Friend, Let's Play
I Never Asked For This Place That's Called My Home,
But I Hope You Will Be Staying With Me Untill The End
Please Don't Be Scared Of Me I'm A Good Girl I Just Want To Be With You To Forget My Sorrow
I'm Tired Of Being The Puppet Of This World
Oh Tell Me Why Do You Want To Go With This Man
Is He Your True Knight In The Shining Armour,
Who'd Sacrafice Himself Just For Your Sake With No Fear? But Then..
Why He Resembles The One Who Created...
This Gallery And Picture That Gave Me A Birth?
My Tears Are Falling Oh Why It's So Painful?
I Did Nothing Wrong So Why Do You Hate Me So Much?
This Burning Canvas Became Your Cruel Answer
So Now Flames Unsparingly Kiss Me Goodnight
_Welcome To Her World That's Lying In Ashes, There's A Sea Of Fire There's No Way To Run At All.. She Only Wanted To Be With Her Father, But Little Mary Is Melting In Her Abyss ALONE_
She is so adorable and the music totally suits her! Poor thing though...being trapped for so long! I don't blame her for going crazy. She has a good heart!
I feel bad for Mary. I mean, she did kind of kill Garry in the Forgotten painting, but she was lonely and she was doing everything to get out of the painting to explore the world. She was the most lonely of all of the characters. She had no-one. No-one had seen her exept ib and Garry.
what about the creator.
and by the way she had the dolls and art pieces too
just they couldnt do anything in her reality
Yeah, y'know It brought a big smile to my face seeing Mary so happy in that ending, I cried, I was like "Omg Mary escaped Yaaaaaay!" but then I realized
what happened to Garry, I was sad and cried then I got happy again!
It's rather that she is a creation, so... well, she doesn't know how the world she step in works. Rather, she doesn't understand. She's a poor girl anyway, in my opinion.
this is going to be the first song I learn on piano. So next time my choir class is all crazy I can sneak over to the piano and start creepily playing this and everyone will get silent and look at me and I'll just sit there playing my music softly and eerily. XD its gonna be great
i still confused, why didn't she just follow them?
Because she can't leave the gallery with her body, so she has to kill someone from the outside world and take their body so that she can leave, see the real world, and have friends. The only people from the outside world available to her were Ib and Garry; and even though she liked them, her only choice was to kill one of them to see the outside world.
Izzie Jackwood ...........damn............
Her painting body just can't handle being in the real world, so she has to kill someone from the real world and take their body to leave.
i though it was only two people could leave the gallery.... i geusses wrong then
:P Well that's that.
It's strange. The more I try to word my feelings, the more complex it becomes. This song numbs your mind. It makes you feel regret. But a part of you is selfishly happy that Mary is free. And as you listen, your mind begins to spin around. The memories of the horrors pierce your heart, coursing a sad, painfully nostalgic fear. Turning your blood turn into paint, using the music as a canvas of despair, until you awaken to yourself. Try as I might, my fingertips replay this cycle. I cannot escape
garry, why do you hate me? i just wanted a friend.....
Mary i'm so so so so sorry. ç-ç
*sniff* w-will you be my friend??
Of course ^^
y-yay!
I think ib leave you,beacause she was more friend with garry. But we can be friends mary
I love Ib.. But Mary is my favorite character of all. I wish we could have done more with her!
ok I will say I do think mary is rally cool and stuff but really do we have to kill mary to get the good ending D: she just what'd the real world and to have friends :/ ill be marys friend :D
"Mary All Alone."
There you go. Ib and Garry escape without burning Mary, and thar be the result.
I'm pretty sure Mary wouldn't allow that
She doesn't have to _allow_ it.
Aeir Soulhaven im pretty sure she does, they are in her reality, this is probably not gurtenas world at all, its most likely marys, view on everything he's done, if guertena wanted these painting to live i think they wouldnt go killing or plucking the life ouyt of people
Aeir Soulhaven i can give a more detailed explanation on my theory later
Oh dear god...
I fell asleep while listening to this song on repeat...
The trippiest i ever had...
"I'll trade you back your rose if Garry gives me hi-"
SHUT UP AND TAKE HIS ROSE
The feels man, honestly, Mary is my fave character in Ib. amg
You can give me link download first picture please
sorry I can't speak english i french ^^ +1 suscriber ^^
You could go to here
pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=26958794
And I don't really make a lot of great videos, but thank you. :)
Thanks I'm download picture thanks ^^
I could do anything in my fathers world, well... almost anything...
None of the figures or paintings talked to me, they were fun to play with, but not a single word would come out... Then they just stoped playing with me... I was getting so lonely, I wished someone would come, just so i could hear their voice, and then Ib and Garry came! It was the happiest day in my life, even if I never get out, I'll remember the time i spent with them forever...
Is it weird that I ship Ib and Mary? I don't know, I just think they are sort of cute together.
Haha, yup. I'm a wired person if you haven't already noticed. I don't know, I guess I just like the fact of A girl liking another girl. I guess that kind of makes sense though because i'm bi.
I agree. I don't really ship Garry and Ib though because of the age difference. I just thought that Since Ib and Mary were the same age (Probably the same age) that they would maybe be A good ship. Mary does seem to have an obsession over Ib though..
+Jaidyn Mansfield Why r u talking to yourself?
+Jaidyn Mansfield I ship Mary and Ib too ;v;
Weird. And you are weird, too
It actually sounds like a music box because of the unstable tempo.
I saved Mary first :l
...Together, Forever. Notice how she makes sure you never remember Garry or that other world. You have candy? She eats. You have lighter? She throws away. I'm pretty sure that she remembers the other world...
...am I the only one who didn't feel bad for her at all?
Strangely enough, no. You're not alone.
Not that I understand how you can't sympathize. It's probably because Garry's with you 3/4 of the game whereas Mary's with you for, like, an 1/8 as a member of your party. But even so...
No, and that's how you know she's a well- made character. Or a poorly- made character. Most likely the former, assuming you didn't sympathize because she tried to kill Garry, who, like Aeir Soulhaven mentioned, was with you for a large chunk of the game, including the secret area.
I gave zero shits. Blonde bitch burns. Profit.
PINK SAUSAGE WAFFLE FAT! It is a giant pink sausage that's fat burning blonde people. Everybody run.
Kaiser Dragon You forgot about the waffles... THE WAFFLES MATTER IT'S NOT COMPLETE WITHOUT THEM. And I don't burn blonde people I love blonde people. Mary's an exception. Plus she's not a person so it doesn't count.
wo w this is probably my favorite thing to listen to ever. also mary is favorite character goodb ye
navigating the ib fandom feels like reading threads from a forum that was discontinued 5 years ago
That's Kouri's intention from the beginning, yes. Mary is determined to be the antagonist in the story.
I think Kouri just focus on showing Ib and Garry's relationship in the "Promise of Reunion".
I love this soooo much!
Mary is my favorite too for sure. ^_^
And I felt compelled to say that... I definitely agree. 'Together, Forever' is the best. ;_;
in the game over's screen, the music that play is called " The Little Doll's Dream". I think it mean that, when Ib die, Mary take her place in the real world (in the game you can read something Mary writed talking about that)
It's funny.
Mary's tragedy wounded my heart in my childhood, and 10 years later I'd find that very same wound torn open by a very similar brunette woman, with a very similar tragedy.
I suppose there's not much difference between oil on a canvas and a dark puddle of ink. All you need to do is move your hand...
Mary is one of the Guetera's paintings. Her plan was to kill someone, anyone, who got trapped in the other gallery, and then using the void opened in the real world to escape. When she got out everyone's memory was changed to include her, and she wound up being included as Ib's younger sister.
I'm so glad, I can play this with piano! >w
If you've ever listened to the original file sound of the music, you'll know that this version is slowed down already.
Nice to meet you to Ib! :)
Awwww the first picture is really cute c:
I'm glad that there are some people who feel the same way I do for Mary.
Tragic antagonist at its finest. My favorite character from the game. I really wanted an ending where both Mary and Garry lived...
Of all other games , this game has the BEST story line ! There's also different endings , most of them are sad , which is AMAZING ! I WANT TO DOWNLOAD THIS GAME ! :D
I think Ib and Garry just got in unexpectedly, and that's exactly what Mary has been waiting for.
I think this song really shows her inner innocence but it also shows her demented side.
oh my god, play this song in two tabs, just a half a second off... it sounds so much more energetic.
kyahh~
I feel for her as well, but ignorance is never an excuse. Imagine post-game if she gets out.
" she doesn't know how the world she step in works" I feel bad for her and what would happen, and what she would do, not knowing its wrong
Super duper good luck you had there!
Mary was a sad little daisy who wanted to be a beautiful rose. But seeing as IB and garry's friendship grew, her envy also grew
O_O You explained that really well.
@mydia023 I'm glad you contributed the game,most people would think it bad then turn it off.
She's just a painting like you said. She doesn't understand evil. She just want to be loved. lol
idk why but mary's theme is my favorite
Great job!
Its something called curiosity. Everyone has it, and at times it does override better judgement.
And I think Kouri knows about that too. The role of each character fit perfectly.
I love Mary and her theme is so awesome I've made it my alarm clock :3
I respect your opinion and this being the only game so far to make me cry. I say that Mary got what she deserved. But that's coming from a major fan of Gary. I loved the game, this soundtrack is my favourite of all time. But ya, I think Mary is alright in some scenarios but in others shes an evil conniving back stabber. But that's just my opinion, A girl who wants to get out but does it in the wrong fashion.
It depends on the person who played it. If they liked Mary, it could be considered good. Most people consider it the bad ending since basically Mary could be considered the antagonist. And possibly the only reason Ib looked happy was because her memory was erased, just like in the other endings. The thing that really got to most people to make it considered a bad ending, is 1) Garry died and 2) Mary eats the candy Garry gave Ib.
It dawned on me. You have to go through the sketchbook, the part of the "other" gallery that Mary controls, to escape back into the real world. That would mean before Mary became sentient and created the sketchbook there was no way for anyone who got trapped to escape as all there was in that area was a black void. If you think that way, Mary seems a lot darker. To escape you have to go through her world where she can try and kill you and get out herself.
Yep, she absolutely does, but at that point, anger overcome her.
i love this game and the theme songs to it!
You two gotta be the best sisters in the world. xD
Garry is real. He can find him observing 'The Hanged Man' painting in the beginning. His dialogue to Ib before he 'falls asleep' is him trying to spare her feelings, since she's just a little girl and might not understand what death is.
I salute you for knowing what's right and wrong, but, try to stay sane :]
Yep, agree. Mary is pitiful, but no one deserve to die for that, despite how much I like Mary.
there is so many emotions in this game :C
if you play through the game and have garry alive at the end when you jump through the painting, the mom will appear and attempt to keep you in the painted world. if you choose to go with the mom, garry will scream at you and ask what you are doing as you are walking away with her. The screen will go static for an instant and you'll see ib walking away by herself. This probably means that shes ib's illusion and the garry that appears when you try to jump through alone is also an illusion.
When I saw the gallery at the beginning, I thought the game had the worst graphics ever. But I kept playing, and to my surprise, Ib is now my favourite game.
Somewhere in the game there was a book that appears to be a sort of journal for the artist. In there he explained that some of the best works of art are ones that people put their entire souls into. So then after, he said he would put his soul into each and every work he created. Perhaps this is why the gallery is alive. I have no idea why they're trying to kill you or why you got sucked in but that's just my theory on why it's alive in the first place.
Agreed... she's been an art long enough.
A story without its author...
A creation without its sculptor...
An illustration without its artist...
abandoned and alone...
its spirit, wicked...
its roots, crooked and twisted...
longing for a purpose...
longing....for a friend......
You can walk up to Garry when he's 'sleeping', switch the candy with the lighter, just completely ignore Mary's painting and then go back to the normal world.
This song kind of puts a cold dark feeling in my heart but, I sorta like that feeling...
She probably had to someone before, and odds are that the prior friends of hers couldn't find a way out of the "Kill or be Trapped Forever" deal, and I'd imagine that she probably resisted the urge the first few times around. By the way, yes, she does mention that others have come into the Fabricated World before Ib and Garry, so it isn't the first time.
I never thought of Mary as "evil". Imagine you were in her place. Stuck in a painting for thousands of years, until one day, you realize if you grab the rose, you can leave your painting. Then you realize that if somebody takes your place, you can become real. You are 9 years old forever in this world, but in the real world you can age properly, be a real person. You take Ib to be your relation in the real world, and you take Garry to take your place. She only wanted to have people who cared...
You know, even though when you played this game, and you think Mary is evil.... She actually loves you..
aaahhh! its stuck in my head! so dang cuuuuuteee, yet scary at the same time! i love it!, mary and her doll*s* are my fvoite characters
I agree. As well this is shown when you talk to Mary (when you and Garry split up because the Flowers of Jealousy) and she starts laughing insanely. Though I actually am sorry for her. You know, who wouldn't get insane after seeing all these visitors and realize that unless you kill somebody, you will never be like them...
No doubt about it.
She is the antagonist. But she is not inherently 'evil'. Just crazed and abandoned.
thank you ;u;
I love Mary. I felt really bad for her in the end. She's just a lonely girl who is stuck in a fake world, and she desperately wants to be real. She wants to have parents and do things like experience snow. It's not her fault she has to take someone's place. Its selfish of her to want to become real at the cost of someone else, but she probably doesn't know the difference between right and wrong, and she was terribly lonely. Poor thing. I wish there was an ending where all 3 could be happy.
When I listen to this, I just start crying so much ;3; It's so touching Mary just wanted a friend but had to kill someone to be Real I love the ending " Together Forever " but I wish Garry would still be alive :'(
There other endings to Ib, ya know. One where Garry survives and remembers Ib in the real world and what happened in the Painting or "Other World". And...he promises Ib they'll see each other again soon..SO AWESOME!
Ib:Lost in a Random World Wanting to get out
Gary:Lost in a Random World Finding a Girl And Doing Everything he can to get them both out, but he really cared about ib and would lose his life for her
Mary:A Fake, But has a heart.She Always Wanted To Be Loved and Cared By Someone. But no ones loves Her.She Trys To Be a part of ib's Family.
One of the Best games ever. Romantic/Creepy.
Never have even played this game or heard of it before now and this song gives me a weird feeling...downloading the game now to see what its about.
