The poor things.
Molded by their absent mother, the guilt and shame.
Never cared for, tended to by therapists and coaches.
What was supposed to “fix” them only made it worse.
they were not cared by coaches.
we see coach interact with in three scenes
first - blowing whistle in their training.
second - telling them to participate in lewd photoshoot for advertisement
third - him visiting Darcy in the hospital. And he said: "Heyy Darcyy. How're you doing? Is your arm okay?". And i thought - "she overdosed, she lost a lot of blood, and we see no injuries on either of her arms". So why did he asked about her arm? Maybe because he doesn't REALLY care about her and only cares if she can play.
that's psychiatry for you yah sis
Isn’t her mom dead? That’s why they are doing different things to cope?
Where’s their other guardian like a dad or other mom? There is no adults in the house it seems.
I mean uh. Y-yeah, I guess.
People taking pills: imma drink water with this
Those twins taking pills: crunchy munchy
Neco Chaaan those weren’t pills...? they were obviously drugs.. taking pills is different

How tho
4:55 I think about this a lot. Everything about this 30 second segment. Girl ends up in the hospital, and they ask "Is your arm okay?" and "Why would you pick today of all days to do this.".
I can’t help it if my deadbeat dad finds out I’m a hoe on Father’s Day 🫢
when you attempt, it's the first way people react unfortunately 😭😭
I feel like Darcy just wants to be a kid, while Marcy feels like she has to be what the adults around her are molding her into.
What the angel said about her mother stuck with her because their mother is dead
do drugs, kids
@@FinalJuice lmaoo
Darcy is a furry thats addicted to drugs
this comment felt like you just talked about my whole life
"Coach.. whats this got to do with tennis?"
"Don't ask stupid questions."
A little commentary on the rampant pedophilia amongst social and political elites
We all saw the video bro.
I thought about that too, it was super creepy
Yeah I honestly thought this had a pedophilia message at first glance but didn't pay much attention to it when I was analyzing the whole video
@@people6117 it's obvious why does every little obvious thing have to have it's own comment that starts with "okay but can we talk about how". This is the worst comment section. It's so diluted with senseless dribble. Still waiting for someone to comment "uhh jeez can we like talk about how the twins were like blonde" fucking hell. Does there have to be text that says *PEDOPHILIA* on the screen to make it more obvious?
I love how the cat and rabbit represent both sisters, the rabbit representing Marcy while the cat represents Darcy. When Darcy enters “Paradise” she is met with a rabbit, a rabbit that has the same eye shape and the same onesie color as her sister (Marcy). Also when Marcy enters “paradise”, the cat also shares the same similarities as her sister, eye shape, and how the cat is on her side on the tennis court. Marcy and the cat BOTH hold up the trophy. honestly I just love everything about this animation ❤
Righttt!! I was trying to find someone that thought the same 😭
and I thought the angel looks like their mom in photo，she saved them from the dream of drug even though the real world is going to end，but twins hug together.
oghhh i didn’t even notice this! so cool
i think it symbolizes how they were trying to find comfort in drugs / overdosing when they truly just needed eachother.
@@merr12345 That makes so much sense
For me, I interpret this animation as a story of greiving. After their mother's passing, Darcy gets consumed by escaping reality through drugs and getting to see her mother again, while Marcy gets consumed by tennis to ignore the pain. She breaks stuff to relieve emotion, but in turn hurts her mother by destroying their house. I like how this short film doesn't end with a clear solution on how they should grieve, only that Marcy realizes she has a problem and to set their differences aside because life is short in the end
That was not their house they worked to a evil men. Ppl protested under the building but the building are giant represent how big the prostitution industry is . (Srry bad english).
Maybe... But they're also using escapism because their world is a literal hell, making their lives essentially meaningless
It's interesting how in the sister's rooms, one girl has only plushies, because she desires friends, and the more competitive sister has only trophies as her main focus.
It would make sense considering their different dream sequences. Darcy imagines the pink rabbit as a friend, which could possibly be seen as what she wants Marcy to be to her. Marcy imagines the blue cat as a teammate, playing and winning the tennis championship with her after Darcy’s overdose, likely symbolizing what she wants from Darcy. It is indeed quite interesting how everything connects like that
i also would like to build on this noting that marcy comes into darcy’s room after the tournament is long over, knowing that her main focus means nothing with the nuclear explosion bound to happen. she is taking a step in her sister’s shoes to better understand her and why she did what she did.
Thank you for the very insightful observation!
I think its more like.. One of them wants to hold on to being a child for as long as she can and stay in her own world while the other is trying to grow up as fast as she can
I think that both of them wanted the same thing, but in different ways, Darcy wants to have back her mother and Marcy wants to make her mother proud. At the end they just want their mother's love.
Angel: Your doing so great! But it’s time for a break now
Devil: That is not a winning attitude!
Angel: *BONK*
I absolutely love those lines. They’re absolutely perfect. Like they’re both not necessarily evil or good
@@meltyflapjack yeah like you could very easily have the exact same exchange verbatim but with reversed roles and it could still hold up
**you're
I was very surprised why angel is saying what devil should say
Usually angels tell You to work hard and suffer while devil is telling you to take care of yourself and enjoy your life
holy shit bro my likes?? humour back then was so bad that it was so easy to get likes
I like how both girls go through the portal and experience different things to show their different fantasies, like one seeing her mom, and the other winning a tennis match.
Something I like about it as well is that both of the twins cope differently. I don't know who is who, so I'll refer to them as "Onesie" and "Ponytail." Onesie longs for her mother, and puts that over tennis which is absolutely acceptable. I blame the therapist for this, but she didn't get the support she needed, and her only parental figure is obsessed with something less important to her: their upcoming match. With that, she becomes TOO reliant on her need for her mother, which is the total opposite of Ponytail. I felt like Ponytail only wanted to be great at tennis maybe as a dying wish of her mother, or because that's the only thing her father cared about. Ponytail is self destructive, which is shown later in her fantasies. She cares about tennis as her priority, and Ponytail pushes thoughts of her mother away to cope.
the lack of dialogue forces people to assume what is happening, and I love that because it speaks to each person in a different way, and touches each of them in a way that it wouldn't touch anyone else.
that is true, there is not necessarily one correct opinion, but everyone's opinions also tell different sides of the story
@@8tsyaboi227 It connects other theories together basically, it's interesting watching it all unravel.

Theres something about the twins in the counselling room that throws me off a bit. Darcy draws her dark thoughts and feelings, and Marcy throws the crayon box instead of drawing.
Думаю,это разные попытки двух девочек, справиться со своими проблемами, Дарси спасается таблетками, рисуя для себя счастливый мир с мамой и семьей. А Марси,в свою очередь, прячет свои проблемы,ее проблемы выливаются в эмоции из-за которых она ломает вещи и не хочет их видеть
@@kenoohao возможно она их не прячет, а избегает не желая о них думать, поэтому она и бросила коробку с мелками, как будто говоря: "я не хочу об этом думать", по крайне мере я вижу это так, а ну да я еще удивлена то что здесь есть русский человек :D

jeez, vewn really doesn't shy away from really grotesque topics like child exploitation, really shows how much they care about the message they're trying to get across without having to hide too much because "people can't handle it"
I've watched this several times and seen several interpretations, but there is one point I haven't seen mentioned yet...
The bunny represents Marcy and the cat represents Darcy. That's pretty clear. When either girl is in the portal realm, they're doing what they want to do most with their sister.
Darcy wants to revive their mother and spend time as a family, while Marcy wants to forget about their mother and just play tennis and win the championship.
Idk I just haven't seen anyone else mention this and it seems like an important and clear point.
There also seems to be dying houseplants scattered through the mansion. I think this represents how the twins are dying on the inside, and how the doom of the outside world seeps into their lives. I have a sneaking suspicion the state of the outside world may very well have played some role in the death of their mother as well. A reason for this possible connection.
I don't think Marcy wants to forget her mom. I think she's remembering her mom through tennis. I have a feeling that either their mom was a tennis player or introduced them to tennis so to Marcy, spending all her time practicing to win that match is a way to honor her mother's memory. That's why she was so mad at Darcy for overdosing because in her mind, all that effort that she was putting all went to nothing. Now the world was gonna end and she wouldn't ever get the chance to make her mom proud
necroposting, my bad, but i’m pretty sure the outside world is also a metaphor for their internal thoughts. The fact they were on an edge with suicide posters as the bomb drops is intentional: the bomb dropping is a physical representation of their suicide. Your analysis that the outside world has something to do with their mother, although not directly related to this idea, could still be accurate. That’s what i love so much about these videos that are left perfectly discreet in their actual ideas; your correlation between the outside world and their mother, mixed with my concept about the outside world being a metaphor for their mental deterioration makes a very complex analysis of this story, both of us making correlations the other didn’t notice, but having them not be exclusive and actually building off of each other.
Some things to note:
-Darcy dresses up in a cat onesie, which looks visibly blue upon entering the so-called portal. Marcy, on the other hand, has a pink bunny sitting in the corner of her room which is visible at 4:20. Darcy also has cats filling her room. The animals each twin encounters within the portal represent the other and, more importantly, how they wish their counterpart acted. Darcy desires a comforting companion, and her experience in the dream world mirrors her crayon picture at 1:13, while Marcy desires a partner to help her achieve her dreams.
-Marcy's room is filled to the brim with trophies and, in many ways, is an exemplary image of a goal-driven person. She is neat, tidy, and has pictures of her family which build on this idea that she wants to see Darcy as a partner and/or companion. Darcy, however, is a stark contrast to Marcy in that she seems disinterested in appearances altogether and instead just wants worldly comforts. Her room is messy and is devoid of any trophies despite the fact that the twins compete together and, therefore, should share trophies. Despite Marcy's wishes, Darcy doesn't view tennis the same way she does and likely never will.
-The title likely refers to the world found within Darcy's portal or alludes to the fact that both twins presumably die at the end of the film, since the outside world is full of chaos, turmoil, and disappointment. The fact that they live in a large mansion is probably a red herring and employed for the sake of making this clear.
-Marcy's personal demon performs a lot of the actions her real-life counterpart does in the waking world. She smashes sculptures, hides from the angel who resembles her mother, lashes out at Darcy, thrashes herself, and eventually takes on her appearance as a whole. Marcy is striving to act more like her mother and as a mature individual but, in doing so, ultimately does the opposite by placing value on the wrong things. Even in the dream world, we see that it is Marcy's demon which resembles herself that ultimately destroys the image of her mother. Instead of comforting Darcy after her accident, Marcy goes on a rant about their competition and mourns the loss of her would-be victory and not her sister, a mistake which she fixes at the end of the video by making up with her sister and accepting things as they are.
-Both sisters struggle to deal with the outside world in manners that are not self-destructive and, at the end of the video, embrace the outside only to presumably be destroyed.
also i want to add that when we see Marcy's room, first we see a lot of big and probably very important trophies. They are biggest objects in the picture and contrast with dominating pink colors. Marcy herself drawn "unimportant" - small and hidden in the corner, so we have to look for her to even notice her.
Dam
Damn this was...
Pretty amazing
Deep
Art is in the details
I didn’t notice this the first time through but Darcy gets prescribed stronger drugs as the story progresses. The first drug she’s given is for “emotional turmoil.” The drug she ODs on is for “chronic despair.”
Nice catch. I also noticed they had the same hair when their mom was alive. The only time they have that again is at the end. Maybe a symbol that they forgive each other and can find solace in themselves again
Yeah and then it goes from 20Mg to 25Mg
I didnt even notice, even when I was pausing almost every single frame to notice the little details
Maybe Darcy has chronic depression and that's the reason she overdose? Or maybe the medicine wasn't helping at all?
100mg woah ok Darcy
Good catch. Her latest prescription which Marcy steals has a label that's not fully in view except for " ...Lapram 25mg... needed... fering" I think fering is suffering
I doubt any will see this, but that line at 5:03 really hit me hard. “Why did you pick today of all days to do this.”
Last year I had an attempt on my life, and was taken to the hospital at 1 in the morning by my mother and my sister. My sister, while not my twin, treated the entire situation with so much apathy and bitterness towards me, telling me I was stupid and selfish and even demanding I apologize for what I did to myself, all because she missed work and missed her twitch stream. It just really touches my soul in a way I didn’t know could
Well I just read your comment, so yea one person knows about it.
Hope you can get a grip on yourself life is not easy.
I hope you're doing well right now😢😢😢 I'm so sorry to hear that your sister said then
That is what I hate the most. I’m sorry if it sounds harsh but your sister should feel ashamed of herself for acting that way…
Your comment hit me hard because I can’t take it when ON TOP of ignoring victims of suffering and leaving them to stay tortured in their minds, people go out of their way to blame them. Blame them for hurting THEMSELVES. You might as well fucking spit on me and shit on my grave if you treat me that way.
When I was going through my high school years depressed, lonely, and with no friends, I hated being treated like nothing was wrong even though I was obviously looking like a lifeless husk all the time. What really pushed me over the edge was how my parents got UPSET at me for being emotionally broken.
See a kid leaning on their school table and limping like a corpse all day? Don’t feel bad for them, or have sympathy for them, or ask them “what’s wrong”, no. PUNISH them for “misbehaving” and being a dipshit “spoiled” kid.
Anyways, now I’m feeling much happier! I don’t wanna bog you down either. I love you and hope you’re feeling better, stay safe. ;-; ❤️
Your family are messed up man, I feel your motives, but always remember, doesn't matter how shit is this world to you, you have to keep moving forward, don't ever give up
When my father took me out of the hospital after my suicide attempt, he asked 'Aren't you ashamed to go home?' I answered 'About what?'. And he replied 'You know what'
It's hard for them to accept that it's their fault that I felt that way, so it's easier for them to put the blame on the other person, rather than to take the blame
And also he accused me of manipulating them. He thinks that I did it on purpose, that i planned my attempt to not die as a result, just to fall asleep. He thinks that i tried to get something out of it... Like, what? Liver disease from drinking 100 pills?
Honestly I just wanted to die and I still regret that I didn't die that day. The worst part is when you wake up and understand that you're still alive...
I could've died actually right away from toxic influence on my liver or from vomit, but ambulance came faster. I didn't know nothing about meds. I thought I would die in my sleep, but then I found out that death from this combo of meds is not what i wanted it to be, it's more painful. Also I could've become disabled
There was a combo of neuroleptics, sleeping pills, antidepressants, painkillers and normotimics. When I felt drowsiness, I thought that I'm dying and I suddenly got scared that my friends will blame themselves, so I wrote a message on the wall and called them... I was so stupid. My friend called an ambulance, not my parents.
Sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker
I love how small the twins feel in this. It really does showcase how powerless they are in it all. They're tennis stars who are forced to compete and do questionable things against their will. They can't even get help because their therapist doesn't care. You have adults who are massive compared to them showing that power difference and even the mother who feels monumental which does incapsulate how much the twins clearly valued her and how important she was. Then you have the outside world which isn't spacious but incredibly cramped showing such a oppressive feeling which imo puts it all onto place how much of a wasteland the world is. The outside doesn't allow them space to exist while the inside is so big that they are non-existent. And then you have their rooms which are the only places outside of the tennis courts which feel like they're perfectly sized to the twins. Genuinely really insane use of space to do visual story telling.
I think that in the portal, the bunny when Darcy was in the portal represented Marcy and the cat when Marcy was in the portal was supposed to be a representation of Darcy. Both were the ideal versions of themselves to the other. With Darcy, she wanted Marcy to spend time with her and with their mother, on the other hand, Marcy wanted them to be a team.
Yeah that's a very great idea! That's what I love about this video, the small details that I maybe would've never thought about but you are right, it is like the perfect sister that both twins are imagining
Amelia Sun especially since the eyes on the bunny are the same as marcy and vice versa
Yeah, I thought the exact same thing! And also Darcy wears the cat hoodie thing, so I think that the cat really does represent Darcy.
@@randomfluffkingt.9364 yes! and marcy have a bunny hoodie, at 00:17 it's in the closet (sorry if my english is bad)
I believe the entire portal is just drug use itself. Marcy has anger issues, and at first, it seems like a way out, until you get backstabbed, and you can't stop. I believe the cat actually represents the users brain, and lucky enough, Marcy was able to make it out, luckily. But on the other hand, Darcy wasn't. She did drugs, and couldn't get out. Might just be my brain, having a fasination for HiImMaryMary, but thats my take on it.
The mother looks like a grown-up version of the girl from floatland.
Now I know why she is so beautiful
Glad I’m not the only one that noticed
It probably is her and she decided to have twin girls in the future. ^_^
The blue haired woman seems to appear on alot of Vewn's work, an archetype I like to call the Blue Angel
I don't know how to explain it, but as someone with severe depression and anxiety, all of vewns videos speak to me so clearly. I understand how it feels. It's unsettling, but in just the right way.

Anyone's going to talk about how Marcy's angel is her mum and her devil is her?
I also see it as the one she killed, if we look into Marcys lady portal trip, someone comes behind her mother and kills her with a knife in the back, which prompts Marcy to quickly beat the life out of them. Forever entangling their souls. Or maybe the mother was killed in relation to them, she was driving to a tennis game and was caught in a bad collision, so now Marcy blames herself.

@@yeather_6562 I see it as if Marcy ignored her inner angel too long and focus on the devil too much (the one telling her to work harder) so the angel left her already but then she realized In the portal that the devil is bad so she tries to mess the devil up while realizing that she's the bad one/devil
i think the mother might have also been a tennis player

Does anyone else find the ending absolutely heartbreaking? Both sisters finally realize that they need help and that they need to support and take of each other, but they never get the chance to because of circumstances completely out of control. They could’ve had time to heal and actually had a fighting chance to recover, but everything fell apart before it could even start.

This is the 3rd time I have ever cared so much about characters in a piece of media. Throughout the entire piece, I cared so fiercely for both of the twins. I wasn’t huge on animations like this, but my friend showed me this channel and it changed. This animation will always hold a special place in my heart. I enjoy the little details here, where Darcy only spoke once, and that was in paradise. I also like how the animals in paradise represented the twin that wasn’t currently in paradise. (For example, when Darcy was in paradise she befriended a rabbit and when Marcy was there she befriended a cat.) I like that you can tell of this because of their room color schemes/the vibe they give off. And the fact that they each had something that represented the animal. Marcy had a rabbit stuffed animal in her room, and Darcy had a bunch of cats stuffed animals + a cat onesie. I also love that even when at the end of the film before they both died due to the nuke, despite the fact that they had little to no differences you could still tell who was who. (At least on my part, or it could’ve been just where Darcy had a head bandage on.) I also loved how the angel on Marcy’s shoulder was implied to represent her mother. (Considering the fact Darcy and the rabbit had summoned her + the pictures of her had blue hair.) And I also presume that the devil that stayed with Marcy throughout the film more than likely represented herself, since near the end when she gets beaten up by it, it goes from a demon to a girl in a ponytail that is wearing a demon hoodie. I really enjoyed how the “angel and devil on the shoulder” thing was taken to a whole other level here, and this is my favorite piece of media I have ever seen. Thank you so much for releasing this masterpiece Vewn. :)
The fact that this video is nine-and-a-half minutes long, yet I've been thinking about it for weeks shows it's good art. Also, the art style! I love how dry this feels, beautiful job.
I don't have any theories. I have only a thought.
The last scene was immensely sad. In the face of imminent death, the two sisters quickly hugged each other with faces of regret. Right there and then, their short lives, how wrongly they spent it, how they treated each other flashed before their eyes. They both realized they can only forgive each other and be there until the end.
It was sad, but also so beautiful. The only moment you show the sisters truly coming together and connecting. Reminds me of the way the sisters in the movie Melancholia were displayed, right at the end when the world was ending, like in this animation.
Reminds me of the ending of The Cabin in the Woods and Toy Story 3 waste dump fire scene. With the end of the world imminent, there is nothing worth doing more than holding on to the ones you love.
made me think of the ending of rogue one
Shiit man now I'm crying in the club
That's the things about twins that always fascinated me: they come in together, but not necessarily, and rarely, do they go out together

世界(国)の終わりに姉妹で苦痛と現実から抜け出し、仲直りしたのが好き。
I liked how each of their “dreamscapes” showed the twins’ love languages in respect to their deceased mother, like how Darcy just wanted her mother’s touch while Marcy thought she needed success to earn her mother’s love.
Marcy's motherly angel complemented her, but thought that she needed to take breaks bc she was over exerting herself, but the devil character fucked shit up
All this pain we cause ourselves doesn't matter cause in the end, we die weather or not we achieve a parents love, or find success in what we do. We gotta take care of the people around us and not fight each other to death. (the nuclear annihilation scene at the end.)

i wish we could actually know the creators pov on this video
also look at the girls' bedrooms. there is a rabbit plushie and a clock with rabbit ears in Marcy's room and there are cat plushies and a clock with cat ears in Darcy's.
this doesn’t pertain to the video but there are 666 likes and your name is grim mace
If you pay close enough attention, pay attention to the outlines for each twin
And they realized they needed each other
Marcy and Darcy took their separate routes on coping with their mother’s passing, but by the end they realized they needed each other.
This theory is short but realy acurate
and then they were fucking nuked
@@socialismwithchinesecharac3938 I guess they repented before it was too late.
Yeah, this is a pretty good summary
They realy did
Holy shit (watched this while very high), the ability to convey Years of tragedy, trauma and connection, along with all the emotions that goes along with it. To do all that in 9 minutes and 30 seconds, with less than 20 words spoken the entire time.
From the different eyes, to their specialized experience in the Portal. So much attention to detail, so much love and artistic passion portrayed in something so simple yet so convoluted.
This is amazing.
Well said, and all conveyed in an art style thats fairly simple. Just perfect.
I am also, very stoned. 😂
I have now watched this >20 times, done a presentation about it for one of my classes and think it might be favorite 10ish min film.
My favorite detail is how at 3:17 Marcy's devil's fingers move a frame before Marcy's does.
I kinda feel like I connect to Darcy, other than the drugs obv.
Overall 12/10, my highest rating.
The girls are stronger than me, *taking a pill without water.*
Kkkk
Hen-oxtranyl medicine. I Googled it and..i don't know why..but it has something to do with chicken antibiotics being used to promote growth instead of being used in dire situations and creates super bacteria immune to the medicine. That's what the girl was prescribed. Weird.
Pretty sure they took a bit more than ‘a pill’
if you build up enough spit in your mouth you don't need water
@@slimeandgrime9626 she took like 20 pills at a time tho
EDIT: To abbreviate and expand my old interpration: I feel this is about stages of grief, with Darcy always being at least one stage ahead of her sister. Marcy is still in denial in the beginning, trying to keep herself busy, while Darcy falls into depression and tries to bargain on how to feel motherly love again. Marcy eventually has to face her trauma. In the end, I like to think that both twins have found comfort in having each other and can move on with their lives (although it is unclear whether they will still have a world to live in afterwards).
----------------------------
(old)
My take: Both twins miss their late mother and both "choose" different ways of coping with the loss. Darcy falls into depression , which she tries to combat with pills. Marcy tries to distract herself by playing tennis. Both twins want to experience motherly love again and they need each other in order to do so, but fail to play the role the other twin wants them to play. Darcy wants to be comforted by her sister (represented by the bunny in the portal). Marcy wants her sister to play tennis with her and succeed (represented by the cat in the portal).
The devil on Marcy's shoulder is trying to protect her from her emotions and from falling into despair over her mother's death like Darcy, which is why it encourages her to distract herself with tennis and to destroy the statues vaguely resembling her mother. The angel doesn't want this, as it recognizes you can't run away from trauma.
After her sister crashes, Marcy's trauma catches up with her as she enters the portal. The devil tries to stop her from encountering her emotions and trauma, only for Marcy to realise that she has been stopping herself from processing her trauma, hurting her sister (devil stomping the cat) and herself (the devil punching Marcy) in the end.
In my interpretation, both twins have now realised that they need each other to process the loss of their mother. At the end, they could try to climb the fence and commit suicide, but instead, they embrace each other, meaning that they haven't given up on each other, even if the world has given up on them.
The only thing that fails here is the fact that they are not going to make it alive since they quite literally, are standing right below a plane with a nuclear bomb.
this is a beautiful one
Red Koiii I don’t think that matters, I think they realize their mistakes when they wake up, and it also seems that (before the nuclear bomb) they do small but impactful things that show that they want to be nice to eachother examples being checking in on the other twin in the hospital then holding hands on the elevator then finally (but definitely not least) hugging eachother as hard as they can because they know it all ends there.
My take, give back your take.
all makes sense now.
The track "Mommy" made it into my top 100 songs of 2023.
7:44 i just realised there's a stabbed cat, an ouija board, and another dead cat in the background.

Man the sexualisation of the young girls was dark and hits hard. Its truly sad that this is our reality.
Yea, the whole fuking animation was dark
Cosmic Draconian it was heavy as fuck
"What does this have to do with Tennis?"
Literally nothing.
this point hurt me
To be honest, this is not our reality. I don't know about you, but rich problematic and talented twins are not something the masses really experience.
I'd rather see an artwork that shows how poorer kids have to face worse problems and not have the money to live.
I finally understand what the portal world represents, we all know that the bunny is Marcy and the cat is Darcy, but if you look at how different they act to each other it’s obvious that the portal world shows what each wants out of the other, Darcy wants Marcy to spend time playing with her and Marcy wants Darcy to focus on what they’ve worked for with no breaks
Ugh the amount I cried at this is unreal, I sent it to my therapist. Thank you for making this.
@SANDSLURPER Your therapist obviously doesn’t have a good taste in art.
Also says a lot about the therapists not understanding
@SANDSLURPER I don’t know anything about your therapist tho they could be very good
The whole thing justs... I have no way of explaining it. It's the unique style, impressive, eye grabbing angles, exotic use of colors, drug use, abuse of children, it's everything. It makes me feel so uncomfortable, yet so impressed.
Yeah, it's amazing and I cannot stip6 watching this since it got Released, The comments are great as well and I already made like 40 comments under this video alone haha
the way it’s always moving and shaking makes you feel anxious and shake too.
i think the most unsettling but interesting part is the angles, how everything looks tipped over. it freaks me out, which i like.

I’m someone’s twin sister and this is fucking haunting. As a girl the “what does this have to do with tennis” bit made my stomach drop and as a sister the way they made up before the bomb dropped without saying a word was absolutely stunning. We’re not at this point and hopefully never will be, but it’s weird how clearly I see myself and my brother in Marcy and Darcy. These animations make me feel things I couldn’t begin to put words to. I binged a bunch of them in the same day when I first found the channel and I was in such a weird mood I kinda floated around my house for the next couple of days. Thank you for this masterpiece.
It really is relatable as a twin
Are you more if a Marcy or a Darcy?
my twin brother and I are a mix of both I would say, but the definitely feel Marcy needing to prove herself all the time. My brother would relate to Darcy, just sitting in his room day dreaming
ai will never, and i mean never, replicate or do as something human as this

@@blazingjalapeno9096 el puto video
@@simonbilbao4150 jajajs
BlazingJalapeno I think they mean even if you have nice material things doesn’t mean everything is perfect. You can still have a really bad life.
They were basically put in a big house with a big mansion, they seem popular and maybe tennis aces? (Idk they have a coach and cost a game so) but what's really gone on was the death of their mother, which slowly spiraled out of control. Figure out the rest for yourself I'm still watching it
I like that the hospital has soft, not bright colors. You feel like it's safe here, even a bomb feels normal. But in the house of the twins everything was in dark dull "blood" colors, it was damn annoying and after all, when we see the hospital-we feel relief.That’s very cool! Thanks view

ここの天使と悪魔の喧嘩好き過ぎる…
Someone Who's been through withdrawal seizures From anti depressants The hospital scene with your family Being a mix of you can still work right and what the h*** is wrong with you but with seemingly no concern hit really hard Amazing video though I still think it shows how 2 people in the exact same environment Can take extremely different paths and be happy Also love the picture that said Sisters by chance friends by choice
8:27 this scene is simultaneously really cute and sad,, their little waves look so timid and childish despite everything they’ve been through
ikr
Forces us to take a step back and remember that these are just kids, even after everything they’ve been through. (At least thats my take on this scene)
nette i saw this when i was at this part lol
vewn then: *kitty finds a job as a hairdresser!*
vewn now: *two little girls have an overdose and then the nuclear apocalypse happens*
how i interpreted that story was that once you move to the big city all on your own, the noises in your head as well as around you start getting to you, so you give up and go home.
theyve always been dark idk wat u mean
PAULA RONDON VIDAL this is sad I edited that it said sas
it was a lot deeper than that... did you even look at the real meaning
Can someone please tell me what does vewn mean? I'm not a native English speaker and I just can't find it anywhere
Bro something is off how after darcy wakes up in the hospital, the coach’s reaction. He tries to act caring for a split second, his face and vibe, he quickly drops the act, and asks “is your arm okay?”
Showing he really only cares if shes able to play or not. Just found it interesting
I like the part when she said “it’s twining time!” And kicked the other guys nuts

@@cozycorrner give me your house back then and also your bridges and inclines
When marcy ods, it seems like shes blaming herself for everything because the demon kills her mum, hurts the cat which represents darcy and then starts to beat marcy up too. When the demon changes to be marcy in a demon suit, it implies that it was marcy all along and so marcy is the reason her mum died, marcy is the reason her sister od’d and marcy is the reason shes as beat down as she is now and is the reason she isnt mummas little girl as much as she wanted to be. her mum and her internal angel look extremely similar showing that her moral ground was based off what she thinks her mum would want but she never got validation from her mum so she ended up just scrapping it and thus blamed herself for everything because she didnt succeed as much as she thought she should.
That makes a whole lotta sense.
lmao do you want to do my literature hw it's literally having to analyze a book just like you did
@@vicktoriaholland I'll go next (jk)
Yeh, she also seems to take her frustration out on everything because of this, given it was her demon(self) who made her do it, maybe her frustrations that pushed her to kill her mum.
I don’t think Marcy was the reason for her mum dying or her sisters OD, I think she has been blaming herself for everything - she’s been bottling up her emotions and starts destroying furniture.
My dream is to someday make art like this
How is this only 3 years old? Feels like an old internet gem
Honestly like, the color palette and the art direction is so glorious. The fact that there are no straight lines and everything is so crooked really emphasizes how unstable these characters are emotionally.
ur just like my literature teacher

8:56 "Dont jump you have so much to live for"
Paradise!? That looks like they just went through hell
I think that’s the point
It hurts seeing the “why are you being so selfish” kindove response to her depression. The fact that nobody truly understands their pain and acts like everything is their fault is so upsetting to me.
i think it was more of a "Really?! You're going to leave me all Alone in this HELLSCAPE?" and a bit less of "this is all your fault."
@@enterprisingbiosphere3933 I honestly never thought of that! You’re so right
from marcy's perspective, darcy is just lying on the floor being irresponsible after all her hard work in the tennis championship practice and to her marcy is just being lazy as she didnt really know ab most of the portal and that.
Pretty sure she realizes that during her trip in the portal, with the demon beating up the animal that has darcy's eyes
It is very sad and painful. But at the same time you understand that she is a child and only knows what she is feeling in that moment.
i feel like when/if vewn becomes a parent they'll exclusively dress their children in elaborate animal onesies
Is vewn nb?

"I can't really count the number of times I've watched this but I completely understand what the characters are saying and conveying, I feel like darcy is me lol
just now realizing that the angel looks like their mother...
And why shr doesnt pop up
yeah Darcy was summoning her mother with the star circle thing and then the angel (their mother) appeared
The mother died and the angel is their mother
It is their mother, well a demon made version
I realized that the mom’s design kinda looks different for either of the girls, with Marcy the mom’s hair has two bangs like Darcy’s and with Darcy her hair’s down like in the pictures,, maybe Marcy kinda sees her angel as both Marcy and her mom or smthing idk
the part where the girls are being made to do a photoshoot in skimpy clothes and marcy asks how it relates to tennis.. that hurt
Yep I was looking for comment on this. Got me good
@Nirvisha Singh That's exactly why it's so gross. It wasn't even just pictures that were kept private. They were publicized for the whole world to consume and adults made a profit from it. The biggest problem is that many times this is accepted. Kids are sexualized from a very young age, especially child celebrities. The same people who are supposed to be guiding them through the world and through fame are making money by exploiting them.

That's not the only issue with this film though..
You'll never see this, but this is the most incredible thing I've seen in a long time. Thank You.
had a breakdown after watching this because of how tortured i am with my own thoughts and how i also just want to escape into a comfortable place and it feels like drugs are the only way to do so sometimes. But then also i am still just a kid, sitting in a dark room alone. No friends, no family, no escape. Just a room full of rot. Anyways i love this animation and especially the art style and this inspires me to make art showing my own struggles with mental illness. thanks for existing
You got this❤
well that's called escapism, and although it's not clear what Darcy and marcy used to be free, there are examples like video games, internet, but in my opinion it was drugs, if your gonna do this, choose a good option
He didn’t ask “Are you okay?” but instead “How’s your arm?”
yup. This entire animation is fucked up but its true
He did say "hey Darcyyyy, how ya doing?"
PPF-
yeah no shit
“is your arm okay?”
no -
dude -
tf she just overdosed 😭✋🏽
Being a twin is something else. That last scene hits hard. Who better then my twin to watch the end with.
I agree. When they held hands I wanted to be with my twin.
I mean tbh, best friends also would do the same
Wow that’s cool
Id rather hold hands with my lover bc im an only chil D: xD
Watching this with my twin was brutal, we just looked at each other like damn
Two years later and this is still my favorite video on UA-cam

1:41 ugly crying rn because you can see darcy struggle a little to open the bottle, this is because of the built in child proof lid. This, along with the vast size difference between them and the adults, is such a subtle yet powerful detail displaying the fact that, despite everything, marcy and darcy are only children. Two little girls, though having each other, who are all alone in the big, wide world.
It's terrifying. Is disturbing. It's wrong. It's reality.

Why does this feel so long but only last for like 9 minutes
A lots happening, that's why
I think the art style and the music really make it feel more “slow”
It's only been 3 minutes and 48 seconds and it feels like I've been here for a while
It feels sloooow to me because I constantly pause the video to read the details and messages hidden, and I do it because I consider none of the things in this animation are accidental, everything was planned... So if you do that too maybe that's why it feel so long.
your mind associates it with being a music video, which is 3 to 5 minutes on average. But this is a whole lot more than that
I watch this like once every month it’s so well made and I love the art style and it has such a deep meaning
with the time that passes i grow as a person and i watch this multiple times and i realize how much stuff i have missed
