The "did he even have lives in the first place?" And then the words on screen "clearly not hes a minecraft streamer" made me laugh so hard! Thank you for making my day! Happy Holidays!
what if ranboo was the one that wrote the revival book and just forgot about it? becuase if you think about it, if he doesn't remember his past, it would be safe to assume that he is black and white because he is half something and half something else- but what if his white half is actually like... a result of him reviving himself before, like tommy and wilbur's white streak? if he is so afraid of death, it would make sense if he would find a way to avoid that so- bazinga bazonga revive book o-O
Ranboo didn't wrote it. DreamXD said to Foolish that he droped two books in the world a millenium ago, and that one of them that found (the revival book) and told Foolish that maybe the other one is worth finding too.
Techno really didn’t want Ranboo to die, I don’t think he was thinking straight, only thinking that he could kill them and save Ranboo. I wonder, would Techno give up a life to get Ranboo back?
I don't think it's a far leap in logic to say that he would. After all, Techno is willing to work with Tubbo in order to learn more about his friend's death. Tubbo, ya know, the person that he's been at odds with since Manburg. It's safe to say that Techno cares a lot about Ranboo. It also wouldn't be far of an assumption that he would give up lives to save Phil and Niki as well. It's kind of clear from Techno's will that he cares about the other members of the syndicate as if they were his family. So yeah, if the revival book does have a life cost, then Techno is the prime candidate from paying that price. Although to be honest I don't see Ranboo coming back soon. Out of character Ranboo said that he was going to use Ghostboo to fix problems with his character, so I don't see him being revived for a while.
I think so. Ranboo had become like family to Techno after L'Manberg and Techno even said "Those who treat me kindness will see that kindness repaid 10 fold", which applies to Ranboo as well. I think Techno would give up a life to revive anyone in the Syndicate - Phil, Niki, and Ranboo. Although if Dream turns out to be in the Syndicate I'm not sure if he'd lay a life down to save him.
Probably as Techno values people and loyalty from people/animals so if he could help Ranboo who not only is in the Syndicate but also is a good friend to Techno, I bet Techno would give it his all to get Ranboo back
I think the idea of Dream using Ranboo's lives to being back Wilbur and Tommy is super cool. I like the idea that you can't bring back someone without some kind of sacrifice.
@@childharvester8131 'I'll kill you then I'll kill you again' or something along those lines; the idea was that Dream would kill him then revive him over and over
No no you have a point By killing him off, his character had been split into two: his ghost version roaming the overworld, and his other dead version in limbo. From what we know from wilburs death, these two new characters will be very different from the original c!ranboo ESPECIALLY if he gets revived. This gives ranboo a chance to not only play a less lore based character (aka ghostboo) but also have a chance to rewrite his original character which is where we might possibly meet “reviveboo” Just food for thought :)
I cant find where tommy had a white streak in his hair. Wilbur's was because, as I see it, he spent more than 10 years in limbo, so hes going to age. I like the idea of ranboo giving his lives up for the revival book, but this opens a LOT of questions. for example: Would dream still revive technoblade to see what would happen (prison podcast) if theres a risk he loses an oppurtunity to revive people (one of ranboos canon lives)? Also ranboo would've had to give up his lives MANY months in the past, before Sam banned him from visiting. ALSO why would he kill tommy, its a wasted life, he didnt need to die, if the revival book feeds off peoples canon lives and ranboo is his minion doing stuff outside of prison, surely he would think twice before killing and then reviving someone? Also him having/reviving the animals in the disc war finale would cost a canon life, but i could see the revival book having some info on how to revive animals without costing a canon life
Tommy having a white streak in his hair tends to be a fan art thing, that I don't think was ever cannon. Although the fandom does use the white streak as an indication of someone who has been revived. But yeah, only Wilbur has the streak, as Will was the only one who had a skin change when revived. Also I was thinking the same thing, Dream reviving Techno makes no sense if the book is connected to Ranboo's lives, Dream is an insane necromancer, but I doubt even he would waste resources like that.
I'd like to note that Dream couldn't bring back Ranboo whenever he wanted to. After Ghostbur died he went to Wilbur's limbo basically taking his place so Wilbur could return. So I don't think the person can be revived until their ghost is gone. So Dream would have to kill Ghostboo before he can bring Ranboo back.
I think the theory that Ranboo and Charlie only had one life because they're mobs, or related to mobs, is interesting. But I have my own personal theory as to why Charlie "died." I write it like that because I don't think Slime lost a life, at least not the way people think. One thing slimes can do is subdivide into smaller pieces. Charlie showed he can do this to in multiple streams by giving small pieces of himself to others to hold on to. These pieces have also been shown to still hold some connection to Charlie. Not to mention, in Charlie's room you can see slime blocks on the walls. I propose that when Charlie fell into the lava, his main body of slime died, but the pieces of him that were scattered in his room attempted to reform himself. However, there wasn't enough slime to properly replicate Charlie's previous form and thus the body was lacking in function, couldn't speak and could barely move. Also Ranboo losing his lives as an exchange from dream to revive someone is cool, but doesn't make sense really when you think about it. Awesome video either way!
I know that I’m very late, but why do you think that it doesn’t make sense about when you think about Ranboo losing his lives an an exchange from Dream to revive someone?
@keiko izawa hi! I didn't really think someone would respond to this. It's been a while since i wrote this, and some time since this video was made. To answer your question depends on the amount lore you're caught up to because lots of the recent lore definitely disproves the idea that dream was using ranboo's lives to use the revive book. If we're talking why, at the time when I originally wrote my comment, I didn't believe this theory made any sense. Well, I'll be honest, I can't exactly remember now as it has been a while. If I do remember it, maybe I'll add another comment explaining why. But do know, as it stands, this theory, while interesting, didn't pan out in the end.
@@pandemoniumxd5369 Oh don’t worry I’ve caught up to the lore, and I still think that the theory makes sense, I just wanted you to give an opinion about it :)
Can I just say your one of the most underrated UA-cam creators I’ve ever seen? I’ve been here since the MCC predictions and your editing honestly deserves a million subs! Keep up the good work Ani!
Theory: if we look at the prison podcast stream when techno and dream are trying to see what happens when they try to 'revive' techno, Dream noticeably punches techno during the process, something which nither of them mention really and just move on. This could mean that in order to revive someone, dream could need some reminant of the person themself. Think about it- Dream obviously would have something with Tommy's DNA when he revived him, and he could've needed Ghostboo himself in order for reviving wilbur to work. If this is true, the delay in reviving ranboo could be because dream doesn't have access to anything with ranboo's dna or a direct connection to him. This could leave room for two things he could possibly be after: Sam's sword, and Ghostboo.
what if Dream took 2 of Ranboo's lives in order to refill his own lives back up to 3, with Ranboo's enderwalking state he wouldnt even know about it. might also explain their connection and Dream's possible use for Ranboo. of course its juat a theory and likely not true because of other evidence...
I saw a comment on a video somewhere where someone said that Foolish can only lose a canon life if he’s saving someone else (Example: Took Eret’s place in the Red Banquet), so maybe he could be key to helping Ranboo come back
ok so this is my theory: ranboo was revived by dream at some point before dream revived wilbur. i think that when u revive someone, u r given a kinda psychological link with the person who u revived. i think that this link gets stronger over time. the reason that ranboo has memory problems is bcs the link between him and dream is getting stronger and dream is starting to control the link. this is also y ranboo can hear dream’s voice. i think that dream is using this link to control ranboo and the bond between them is so strong that now dream can literally give ranboo’s lives away. i think that when u revive someone, it’s a life for a life. so ranboo had 3 but dream used the link to give 2 of ranboo’s lives away, so that wilbur and tommy could be revived.
I do not believe that the revival book is tied to ranboo in that way or anyone else simply because it would be incredibly stupid for dream to waste that power on tommy and then trying to revive technoblade while techno was still alive I just feel like it's incredibly improbable and dream is smarter than that I obviously could be wrong but I don't think I am Edit: the new hitting on 16 thing that Wilbur soot uploaded to AO3 proves that ramboo couldn't have been tied to the revival book in the way where it would take his lives
@@oakland7561 yes I understand that but it does not change what I'm saying I truly do not believe that he would be stupid enough to waste that power no matter how much more he wants to traumatise Tommy And like I said I could be wrong but until I'm proven wrong I will believe this :)
Yeah, he has to analyse how Connor bringing up stolen valour is connected to the twitch community at large, as well as the analysis on how much he said being trustworthy. Would awesamdude lock up Connor due to stolen valour? All this and more will be covered in Animagicians upcoming series, “Connereatspants is the Better Part of Valour” or CBPV for short.
Did anyone else kind of have a small break down when he said that techno most likely will request Ranboo’s revival the next time him and Dream cross paths? Watching this now, they will never crossed paths again..
i love this video the theory that you presented, fits soo perfectly with all the dots, that i cant think of a second theory, and you know when this happens it means you have created the best theory!! absolutely love it
This sort of goes with what you say, but if ranboos lives are connected to the revive book, what if every time someone is killed with the new death book that dreamXD was talking about, that life goes to Ranboo, and for every life brought back to people using the revive book, that life is taken away from ranboo. Idk just a thought.
Theory (I still haven't watched the video): I think the reason how he lost 2 lives is related to to dream using the revive book. In order for dream to revive someone, he has to use another life to revive them. So I thing Enderboo gave away his 2 live for dream to use in the revive book
I think the reason Dream said he owed Techno a favor, even though what Techno did for him was him repaying a favor to Dream, is because he knows that Techno cares about Ranboo and that, knowing Dream can bring people back to life, he would ask from him to bring Ranboo back, which he can use to make people believe that Ranboo's inevitable resurrection is because Techno requests it and not suspect that him and Ranboo are secretly allies This is highly possible, since, as you said, Dream has shown how good he is at keeping his alliances a secret (I'm especially referring to Dream and Punz secretly working together without even us knowig it) and he is also exeptionally good at planning far ahead, seemingly having a plan for every possible scenario, so it could be that it was not a coinsidence that things happened the way they did and that it was all part of Dream's plan, but I guess we'll have to see
I can already machine technoblade being like: No Tubbo your not gonna use your life on this. As the sensei of my student ranboo I’ll use one of my lives on it. That would be awesome and fortify the fact that Technoblade is Ranboo’s sensei.
I’m just excited for Conner syndicate lore. I do have a feeling techno’s next lore stream is him going to destroy the prison and/or kill sam for what he’s done. Then he will go to find Dream and ask him to use the favor on reviving ranboo. Ranboo gets revived and then the next syndicate meeting is to go on a mission to find micheal. I hope this theory gets some attention because my last one didn’t get any and I had to rewatch lore streams constantly to get lore pieces to create the other one (and this one a little) have a blessed day and a happy new year!!!
Fun theory, and there's definitely a lot of potential for either answer with Ranboo's character. I feel like he's definitely got something in store for that little plot thread that's going to be reallly interesting to pick up on. It's probably nitpicky, but one thing I think you may be connecting dots for that aren't there is the white half of Ranboo, and the "white streaks in the hair" thing. Tommy having a white streak from being revived is just a fanon/headcanon thing, as far as I'm aware anyway, and Wilbur's stated before that the white streak was from him going grey-white due to stress and age. Very good video though, Im really hopeful for what Ranboo has planned for us!
A sad thing to think about in Ranboo lore is that even after he died and said out loud what had been happening to him while alive ,nobody realised that he had been saying it. Nobody realised his mental health slowly falling from manipulation not just from dream but his own friends,being pushed to do things, nobody had ever actually helped ranboo during ranboos lore. And even though it may of seemed like they was helping really it was ranboo who was. Yet,he never got to speak out loud on what he himself wanted to speak out to everybody. But hey This is just an opinion A GAME OPINI- Yeah no
The second I heard about ranboo's death I and that he had 1 life left, I realiized it might've been because of Tommy and Wilbur being revived. I'm happy to see someone mention the theory! Great video!
@@lipopcorne489 I agree Quoting Techno, DreamXD is a god, and has canonical access to creative mode, while the regular Dream is just like some homeless Teletubby
The DreamSMP doesn’t even feel like just a Minecraft Roleplay Server anymore, but more like a TV show or an Anime. The way viewers make up: Theories, AUs, Head Canons etc is crazy to think of where it started; at the beginning it was *just a minecraft server*
Your 2nd theory about ranboos life sounds correct , but I have a theory of mine aswell : What if you could choose between your Cannon lives. Think about it , in the post you shared the hearts just "fade" away , like an option . Whenever you die , you can choose to either use another life or just become a Ghost.
@@noir_wolfe1099 most probably yea , since he was so stressed out when he was alive , trying to keep memory books , trying learn more things about his ender walk etc . In that very exact moment that Sam killed him , he might have gotten all flash backs of him suffering so without a 2nd thought he decided to die
If someone else would have to sacrifice one of their lives to bring Ranboo back, I have a strong feeling that it is going to be techno, as he is the one who wants him back, and would most likely do anything to get him back.
2:28 While showing my friend the dsmp (EvenMCGaming to be exact really cool vids go check them out and we NEED AND EP 8!!) I don't know if this matched up with the timeline, but she suspected that the explosions where from Quack man trying to blow up the egg, which is why they can't find any evidence of TNT
THANK YOU!! It feels So GOOD to hear someone else voice tge exact same questions that have been burning in my head!! Like Y DOES Ranboo only have one life?(sorry had)!
Ranboo as a whole might have had 3 life’s from the start but those life’s are divided between his enderman state and his “normal state”, one life in the “normal state” and two lives in the “enderman state”
i like the revival book theory cause the lives disappearing and not breaking reminds me of the description of the death book and i think if his final life would had been taken by the revive book he would be gone for good no limbo
I've got a cool theory! So y'know how ranboo has two sides, one enderman, and one unconfirmed mystery side. When ranboo was killed by Sam, maybe that killed the mystery side, enderman side, and human side at once, causing Ranboo to become a ghost after his first death. I could just be overthinking, but you know how deep these storylines get!
What if when Sam was asking Ranboo “questions” he was torturing him but he had to kill him, taking his two cannon lives like Tommy did to dream, and left him on one life until he killed him during the escape
I have a theory: what if dream took Ranbo 2 lives since he's connected to him in a way that he is a part of him. After dream escape the prison he took ranbo 2 lives so if he got surrounded and they killed him, he will be gone, but since he took ranbo 2 lives, he wouldn't have to worry about that knowing that ranbo was going to die with the one life, he didn't want to risk losing His other 3 live for his big plan?
What if as well as bringing back people from the dead using the revival book you could also take someone's lives and give it to someone else (and that someone else could be dream) which could be a reason why his 2 lives faded away
That would make the revival power less overpowered, too. SOMEONE loses a life, you just get to chose who. Also puts a lot of moraly grey implications on doing so, unless yours is the life your sacrificing, and even than, if that loses the world that power, it may have bad consequences.
I think the theory with the revival book is really interesting and would like to add how dream said he'd kill and revive tommy all over again.. if that ever actually happens and the theory is true that could cause some massive problems, because people would just start losing life's seemingly out of nowhere.
This is my personal theory: Many people speculate that Ranboo's second half is a ghast because it is white with a red eye. Ranboos character is known for being really sad and so being sad means crying, we also know that ghast tears are an item in minecraft and ghast tears make regeneration potions. So maybe dream or the voice in ranboo's head took over ranboo to make him cry, making ghast tears so they can make regeneration potions thus being able to revive all these people, and just like how you said in the video that wilbur and tommy got white streaks in their hair, maybe that is a side effect of the ghast tear, because that item is also white.
i dont think anyone noticed this but on the z twitter account the hearts are from undertale and the heart break animation is when frisk(the main character dies) and then is brought back to life also the two sides of rambo thing also applies to frick and chara since they share a body and soul
Well if dream made this "prison" happen do you think dream might've wanted ranboo dead? Maybe that's the reason why he told Sam to build it. Dream wanted to have ranboo there. And at the end Dream had no hesitation to run away with techno. It's my guess! .o. Edit: what if dream tempted him to believe he had no lives. Maybe that's why ranboo didn't want to escape with dream and techno. Maybe ranboo DID want to believe he had no have a lives. My other guess! .o.
I was just thinking that the enderwalk thing side of Ranboo died so now he was free of the curse and everything is good now. And your telling me that there is a possibility that he's the key to the revive book?! If this is true and someone catches on to this then it could mean horrible things for Ranboo, given how desperate everyone is for the book.
Keep in mind. When Ranboo was in his ender walking state in the prison he "died" at the end as the roof was falling. He also threw water on himself for experiments. The stream ended right away leaving viewers on a cliff hanger similar to other streams when there POV of there character dies. Those possibly could been "deaths."
I have news that can change things about Ranboo/Ghostboo its something that I have thought about for a while but what if Ranboo has already lost his mind as we know from Ghostbur and Wilbur being 2 separate entities Ranboo seems completely different to Ghostboo and after doing the math on how long he has been in his Limbo he has been in it currently for the same time Wilbur has which is 13 1/2 years which is what drove Wilbur insane and drove him to be more chaotic but see things from a different perspective but if Ranboo doesn't get revived soon he will lose it even more even possibly turning him into someone as chaotic as Dream
Pls assess the character of tommy also... the only character with immunity to egg only character who died but a ghost didn't appear first was opposing wilbur revival but after the revival he went with him don't you think this is very mysterious
If you seen a lore or video Wilbur said “I took one of ranboo life” and he said that to Phil if you want to watch it I think it’s called wilbur confesses
The thing with the revival book theory, if it was intended, I would have expected the animation would be that one heart disappears at a time but both hearts disappear at the same time which makes me think there's nothing more to it than a visual representation of losing two lives. I like the theory that the book has a drawback though. If the revival book takes a life to revive a life, the death note would take a life to take another life which is pretty interesting if it were the case :)
I think personally that Ranboo's other half is a White Enderman, a mob that people claimed to see in earlier versions and was probably a graphical glitch. seems likely.
i thought of another theory about lives: if ranboo had 3 lives initially, could he have lost 2 in another place? do characters get 3 lives when they enter the confines of the smp? there are for sure other places that aren't the smp area, as we saw in captain puffy's origin lore, and maybe a little bit of tales. but i do really like the idea that lives could be traded, jumaji-style. perhaps one day characters will be able to give other characters a life to save them (for example, phil dying and techno giving up a life so that technp has 2 but phil gets his one back).
My personal theory is; - Ranboo went into his enderwalk state, Dream killed him twice in preparation for something like this (Foreseeing it because of his favour with Techno) - Dream went to jail - Dream was broken out by Techno, with Ranboo and Connor - Sam killed Ranboo taking his final life - Dream will revive Ranboo to get closer to Techno or form a better relationship with non-enderwalking Ranboo to convince him he's "not a bad guy" and give the same speech he did with Sam but altered - *Dream and Ranboo will become allies in part with peer pressure from Techno telling Ranboo that Dream is good for reviving him*
Wait if Dream and Enderboo are very close friends and so Skeppy and BBH their lives are connected then it wold stand to reason that Tommy and Tubbos are connected and so is Techno and Philza

Theory: if we look at the prison podcast stream when techno and dream are trying to see what happens when they try to 'revive' techno, Dream noticeably punches techno during the process, something which nither of them mention really and just move on. This could mean that in order to revive someone, dream could need some reminant of the person themself. Think about it- Dream obviously would have something with Tommy's DNA when he revived him, and he could've needed Ghostboo himself in order for reviving wilbur to work.
If this is true, the delay in reviving ranboo could be because dream doesn't have access to anything with ranboo's dna or a direct connection to him. This could leave room for two things he could possibly be after: Sam's sword, and Ghostboo.
the potato has the dna on it omg if someone eats that potato like
"why does this potato tasle like a child" lol
My theory: Ranboo is made of two half of some type of creatures so when Sam kill him, Sam may killed both half and it counted as 2 lives.
But then still, you get 3 lives, so he would still have had 1 life left if this was the case.
Then, by that logic, Ranboo would have 1 canon life left.
There is a similar theory on youtube that I find very interesting
an then he died because he lost 1 canon life to a llama back during tubbo's l'manburg
but wouldn’t that mean there would be 6 life’s before meaning 2 lives are left?
what if Dream took 2 of Ranboo's lives in order to refill his own lives back up to 3, with Ranboo's enderwalking state he wouldnt even know about it. might also explain their connection and Dream's possible use for Ranboo.
of course its juat a theory and likely not true because of other evidence...
Although this wasn’t true, it is an interesting theory.
I saw a comment on a video somewhere where someone said that Foolish can only lose a canon life if he’s saving someone else (Example: Took Eret’s place in the Red Banquet), so maybe he could be key to helping Ranboo come back
I really like this theory!!
ok so this is my theory:
ranboo was revived by dream at some point before dream revived wilbur. i think that when u revive someone, u r given a kinda psychological link with the person who u revived. i think that this link gets stronger over time. the reason that ranboo has memory problems is bcs the link between him and dream is getting stronger and dream is starting to control the link. this is also y ranboo can hear dream’s voice. i think that dream is using this link to control ranboo and the bond between them is so strong that now dream can literally give ranboo’s lives away. i think that when u revive someone, it’s a life for a life. so ranboo had 3 but dream used the link to give 2 of ranboo’s lives away, so that wilbur and tommy could be revived.
or when dream lost his 2 lives, ranboo lost his bcs of the link :)
This is actually amazing-
This is legit a amazing theory-
ye nicee theory 0-0
ty :)
“Maybe techno, people wanted his catchphrase to be proven wrong for a LONG time” oh have I got some bad news for you, buddy
I do not believe that the revival book is tied to ranboo in that way or anyone else simply because it would be incredibly stupid for dream to waste that power on tommy and then trying to revive technoblade while techno was still alive I just feel like it's incredibly improbable and dream is smarter than that I obviously could be wrong but I don't think I am
Edit: the new hitting on 16 thing that Wilbur soot uploaded to AO3 proves that ramboo couldn't have been tied to the revival book in the way where it would take his lives
well animagician also mentions that dream could have done it unintentionally, meaning he probably didn't know about the side effect
he wants to kill and revive tommy to make him suffer and reviving techno while he was still alive was just a test to see what would happen
@@oakland7561 yes I understand that but it does not change what I'm saying I truly do not believe that he would be stupid enough to waste that power no matter how much more he wants to traumatise Tommy
And like I said I could be wrong but until I'm proven wrong I will believe this :)
didnt he want to kill tommy to test if the revive book worked on people?
@@nickkneecaps4023 at the time that was believed but now there's the whole thing he's literally been testing the book on people for month's
yo, i cant wait for the hour long in depth look into the Connor lore.
no but seriously awesome vid Ani you covered some really good theories.
an hour?? that's way too short man cmon
Yeah, he has to analyse how Connor bringing up stolen valour is connected to the twitch community at large, as well as the analysis on how much he said being trustworthy. Would awesamdude lock up Connor due to stolen valour? All this and more will be covered in Animagicians upcoming series, “Connereatspants is the Better Part of Valour” or CBPV for short.
Did anyone else kind of have a small break down when he said that techno most likely will request Ranboo’s revival the next time him and Dream cross paths? Watching this now, they will never crossed paths again..
I like this theory of not all revivals are done without a cost. The Book really serves as a gateway for the soul to the host!!
i love this video the theory that you presented, fits soo perfectly with all the dots, that i cant think of a second theory, and you know when this happens it means you have created the best theory!!
absolutely love it
That notification just made me smile lol
its two am and my little lore-obsessed brain is going brrrrrrr at an alarming rate
This sort of goes with what you say, but if ranboos lives are connected to the revive book, what if every time someone is killed with the new death book that dreamXD was talking about, that life goes to Ranboo, and for every life brought back to people using the revive book, that life is taken away from ranboo. Idk just a thought.
I knowticed Ranboo picking up the grass block too! I'm happy someone saw that. :D
Theory (I still haven't watched the video):
I think the reason how he lost 2 lives is related to to dream using the revive book. In order for dream to revive someone, he has to use another life to revive them. So I thing Enderboo gave away his 2 live for dream to use in the revive book
You. Are. A. Genius…. I’d never even considered this! Great work Ani! I applaud your intellect Mr Magician
Plot twist: Ranboo is Dream’s son
Bigger plot twist: Ranboo is Dream's father.
@@jeckjeck3119 lol
Not this one again XD
@@lipopcorne489 but what if it was true 🤔
6:47 maybe it was the death book but his name(s) wasn’t (weren’t) written fully.
Or a weaker version. Reverse revive book.
I think the reason Dream said he owed Techno a favor, even though what Techno did for him was him repaying a favor to Dream, is because he knows that Techno cares about Ranboo and that, knowing Dream can bring people back to life, he would ask from him to bring Ranboo back, which he can use to make people believe that Ranboo's inevitable resurrection is because Techno requests it and not suspect that him and Ranboo are secretly allies
This is highly possible, since, as you said, Dream has shown how good he is at keeping his alliances a secret (I'm especially referring to Dream and Punz secretly working together without even us knowig it) and he is also exeptionally good at planning far ahead, seemingly having a plan for every possible scenario, so it could be that it was not a coinsidence that things happened the way they did and that it was all part of Dream's plan, but I guess we'll have to see
The part where he said someone has to lose a life for Ranboo made me think of Philza sacrificing his only 1 life for Ranboo.
omg thats sad
I can already machine technoblade being like: No Tubbo your not gonna use your life on this. As the sensei of my student ranboo I’ll use one of my lives on it.
That would be awesome and fortify the fact that Technoblade is Ranboo’s sensei.
Oh no the prophecy is true. RANBOO IS THE MAIN CHARACTERRRRR
Now I can imagine Tubbo throwing away his last life for Ranboo to be brought back-
Imma leave the tissues here for the peeps reading this 📤
Yes.

I’m just excited for Conner syndicate lore. I do have a feeling techno’s next lore stream is him going to destroy the prison and/or kill sam for what he’s done. Then he will go to find Dream and ask him to use the favor on reviving ranboo. Ranboo gets revived and then the next syndicate meeting is to go on a mission to find micheal.
I hope this theory gets some attention because my last one didn’t get any and I had to rewatch lore streams constantly to get lore pieces to create the other one (and this one a little) have a blessed day and a happy new year!!!
Fun theory, and there's definitely a lot of potential for either answer with Ranboo's character. I feel like he's definitely got something in store for that little plot thread that's going to be reallly interesting to pick up on.
It's probably nitpicky, but one thing I think you may be connecting dots for that aren't there is the white half of Ranboo, and the "white streaks in the hair" thing.
Tommy having a white streak from being revived is just a fanon/headcanon thing, as far as I'm aware anyway, and Wilbur's stated before that the white streak was from him going grey-white due to stress and age.
Very good video though, Im really hopeful for what Ranboo has planned for us!
7:28 FINALLY SOMEONE SAID THAT THEORY👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Damn ANOTHER THEORY LETS GOOOOOO
A sad thing to think about in Ranboo lore is that even after he died and said out loud what had been happening to him while alive ,nobody realised that he had been saying it. Nobody realised his mental health slowly falling from manipulation not just from dream but his own friends,being pushed to do things, nobody had ever actually helped ranboo during ranboos lore. And even though it may of seemed like they was helping really it was ranboo who was. Yet,he never got to speak out loud on what he himself wanted to speak out to everybody.
But hey
This is just an opinion
A GAME OPINI-
Yeah no
The second I heard about ranboo's death I and that he had 1 life left, I realiized it might've been because of Tommy and Wilbur being revived. I'm happy to see someone mention the theory! Great video!
(7:30)But if dream and ranboo canon lives are connected then dream would have 0 canon live as he lost 2 by himself and 1 by ranboo
Dream IS the Admin, it might come with perks of more canon lives, Or DreamXD, who has no use for canon lives, gave his lives to Drea,
@@Rasmusnilsenbie I don't think DreamXD cares that much for Dream
@@lipopcorne489 I agree
Quoting Techno, DreamXD is a god, and has canonical access to creative mode, while the regular Dream is just like some homeless Teletubby
the god of war music in the background lol
one flaw dream used the revival book 3 times already remember he used it to summon god so techno could get a bell
The DreamSMP doesn’t even feel like just a Minecraft Roleplay Server anymore, but more like a TV show or an Anime. The way viewers make up: Theories, AUs, Head Canons etc is crazy to think of where it started; at the beginning it was *just a minecraft server*
Your 2nd theory about ranboos life sounds correct , but I have a theory of mine aswell :
What if you could choose between your Cannon lives. Think about it , in the post you shared the hearts just "fade" away , like an option . Whenever you die , you can choose to either use another life or just become a Ghost.
So Ranboo chose to die?! 😨
@@noir_wolfe1099 most probably yea , since he was so stressed out when he was alive , trying to keep memory books , trying learn more things about his ender walk etc . In that very exact moment that Sam killed him , he might have gotten all flash backs of him suffering so without a 2nd thought he decided to die
I all most cried when they said people wanted techno to die r i p
Animagician you probably hear this every day but your videos are REALLY GOOD
My brain hurts.
People look into lore to much, but it’s so interesting!
0:28
I’m still waiting for Niki spawning withers to come back to bite, she almost lost a life to Sapnap
that last one where Ranboo became part of the revival book makes so much sense!!!
If someone else would have to sacrifice one of their lives to bring Ranboo back, I have a strong feeling that it is going to be techno, as he is the one who wants him back, and would most likely do anything to get him back.
2:28 While showing my friend the dsmp (EvenMCGaming to be exact really cool vids go check them out and we NEED AND EP 8!!) I don't know if this matched up with the timeline, but she suspected that the explosions where from Quack man trying to blow up the egg, which is why they can't find any evidence of TNT
technoblade can't ask dream for ranboo he's dead
THANK YOU!! It feels So GOOD to hear someone else voice tge exact same questions that have been burning in my head!! Like Y DOES Ranboo only have one life?(sorry had)!
animagician: phil is brave
baby zombie: get over here phil
Ranboo as a whole might have had 3 life’s from the start but those life’s are divided between his enderman state and his “normal state”, one life in the “normal state” and two lives in the “enderman state”
7:52 yes,book is using lifes as a energy source.
i like the revival book theory cause the lives disappearing and not breaking reminds me of the description of the death book and i think if his final life would had been taken by the revive book he would be gone for good no limbo
I've got a cool theory! So y'know how ranboo has two sides, one enderman, and one unconfirmed mystery side. When ranboo was killed by Sam, maybe that killed the mystery side, enderman side, and human side at once, causing Ranboo to become a ghost after his first death. I could just be overthinking, but you know how deep these storylines get!
My brain absolutely get destroyed 💀
HOWW WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT SO FAR AWAY
Ranboos death was just out of pocket
0:08 That really hits different now, doesn't it?
Perfection
What if when Sam was asking Ranboo “questions” he was torturing him but he had to kill him, taking his two cannon lives like Tommy did to dream, and left him on one life until he killed him during the escape
Green Florida man's machinations are so much fun!
Lifes getting leeched off of Ranboo makes sense, until you realize that Henry also got revived...
0:08 that didn't age well...
Bro my BRAIN! BUT IT MAKES ALL SENCE SOME HOW!!! AAAHHH Ranboo whyyyyy
Yall remember when Ranboo joined the server, Dream killed Ranboo and said "Your first canon life is mine"..... hmmmmmmmmmmmmm ;-)
I have a theory: what if dream took Ranbo 2 lives since he's connected to him in a way that he is a part of him. After dream escape the prison he took ranbo 2 lives so if he got surrounded and they killed him, he will be gone, but since he took ranbo 2 lives, he wouldn't have to worry about that knowing that ranbo was going to die with the one life, he didn't want to risk losing His other 3 live for his big plan?
"Coincidence I think not!" HE SAID IT
What if as well as bringing back people from the dead using the revival book you could also take someone's lives and give it to someone else (and that someone else could be dream) which could be a reason why his 2 lives faded away
That would make the revival power less overpowered, too. SOMEONE loses a life, you just get to chose who. Also puts a lot of moraly grey implications on doing so, unless yours is the life your sacrificing, and even than, if that loses the world that power, it may have bad consequences.
sir, u have to much time to think so fucking out of the box, LIKE BRO THIS BLEW MY MIND
I think the theory with the revival book is really interesting and would like to add how dream said he'd kill and revive tommy all over again.. if that ever actually happens and the theory is true that could cause some massive problems, because people would just start losing life's seemingly out of nowhere.
This is my personal theory:
Many people speculate that Ranboo's second half is a ghast because it is white with a red eye. Ranboos character is known for being really sad and so being sad means crying, we also know that ghast tears are an item in minecraft and ghast tears make regeneration potions. So maybe dream or the voice in ranboo's head took over ranboo to make him cry, making ghast tears so they can make regeneration potions thus being able to revive all these people, and just like how you said in the video that wilbur and tommy got white streaks in their hair, maybe that is a side effect of the ghast tear, because that item is also white.
"OH yeah I'm half endermen and half book!"
Well remember that ranboo visited dream while on sleepwalking. Sam maybe thought they were friends.
Ranboo's been in limbo for almost 2 years- 😃😀😄🙂😔🙁
I think at this point techno is never going to die, same thing with Phil only having one life, joke/reference put in by the writers
i dont think anyone noticed this but on the z twitter account the hearts are from undertale and the heart break animation is when frisk(the main character dies) and then is brought back to life also the two sides of rambo thing also applies to frick and chara since they share a body and soul
Well if dream made this "prison" happen do you think dream might've wanted ranboo dead? Maybe that's the reason why he told Sam to build it. Dream wanted to have ranboo there. And at the end Dream had no hesitation to run away with techno.
It's my guess! .o.
Edit: what if dream tempted him to believe he had no lives. Maybe that's why ranboo didn't want to escape with dream and techno. Maybe ranboo DID want to believe he had no have a lives. My other guess! .o.
0:07 this didn't age well💀
I was just thinking that the enderwalk thing side of Ranboo died so now he was free of the curse and everything is good now. And your telling me that there is a possibility that he's the key to the revive book?! If this is true and someone catches on to this then it could mean horrible things for Ranboo, given how desperate everyone is for the book.
Keep in mind. When Ranboo was in his ender walking state in the prison he "died" at the end as the roof was falling. He also threw water on himself for experiments. The stream ended right away leaving viewers on a cliff hanger similar to other streams when there POV of there character dies. Those possibly could been "deaths."
I have news that can change things about Ranboo/Ghostboo its something that I have thought about for a while but what if Ranboo has already lost his mind as we know from Ghostbur and Wilbur being 2 separate entities Ranboo seems completely different to Ghostboo and after doing the math on how long he has been in his Limbo he has been in it currently for the same time Wilbur has which is 13 1/2 years which is what drove Wilbur insane and drove him to be more chaotic but see things from a different perspective but if Ranboo doesn't get revived soon he will lose it even more even possibly turning him into someone as chaotic as Dream
Pls assess the character of tommy also...
the only character with immunity to egg
only character who died but a ghost didn't appear
first was opposing wilbur revival but after the revival he went with him
don't you think this is very mysterious
If you seen a lore or video Wilbur said “I took one of ranboo life” and he said that to Phil if you want to watch it I think it’s called wilbur confesses
The thing with the revival book theory, if it was intended, I would have expected the animation would be that one heart disappears at a time but both hearts disappear at the same time which makes me think there's nothing more to it than a visual representation of losing two lives.
I like the theory that the book has a drawback though. If the revival book takes a life to revive a life, the death note would take a life to take another life which is pretty interesting if it were the case :)
god of war music XD
I think personally that Ranboo's other half is a White Enderman, a mob that people claimed to see in earlier versions and was probably a graphical glitch. seems likely.
Man poor ranboo he had a goal to find out where his “decoy” book is and he got shut down and killed during it:/
This was absolutely amazing-
i thought of another theory about lives: if ranboo had 3 lives initially, could he have lost 2 in another place? do characters get 3 lives when they enter the confines of the smp? there are for sure other places that aren't the smp area, as we saw in captain puffy's origin lore, and maybe a little bit of tales. but i do really like the idea that lives could be traded, jumaji-style. perhaps one day characters will be able to give other characters a life to save them (for example, phil dying and techno giving up a life so that technp has 2 but phil gets his one back).
My personal theory is;
-
Ranboo went into his enderwalk state, Dream killed him twice in preparation for something like this (Foreseeing it because of his favour with Techno)
-
Dream went to jail
-
Dream was broken out by Techno, with Ranboo and Connor
-
Sam killed Ranboo taking his final life
-
Dream will revive Ranboo to get closer to Techno or form a better relationship with non-enderwalking Ranboo to convince him he's "not a bad guy" and give the same speech he did with Sam but altered
-
*Dream and Ranboo will become allies in part with peer pressure from Techno telling Ranboo that Dream is good for reviving him*
Wait if Dream and Enderboo are very close friends and so Skeppy and BBH their lives are connected then it wold stand to reason that Tommy and Tubbos are connected and so is Techno and Philza
