I will never get enough of this ending, I swear. While the “hero becomes the villain / villain was the hero all along” storyline isn’t really revolutionary (it’s been done many times before) the foreshadowing, build-up, and the reveal itself were executed so well in my opinion. On my first viewing I was absolutely flabbergasted and I still get chills whenever I so much as hear ‘The End of the Hall’. 10/10 would cry again.
i agree with this, i 100% agree with this ;-; i really enjoyed it and whenever i see the ending with 'the end of the hall' music and thin man just sits there menacingly i just get chills and goosebumps.. and i love it. 10/10 indeed
If you think about it everyone is hating six from this end. Meanwhile we were all feeling bada** walking down the hall and killing everyone. Something to think about.
I love how much we were all shocked from Six's betrayal, as if it was such a twist in her character, despite the fact that we've seen her be an absolute monster in the first game.
If you’ve seen what Six does at the end of very little nightmares, then it really does come as a surprise. Also LN2 takes place before LN1, so the games pretty much display Six’s mental deterioration
This ending sent chills down my spine. He spent an *Entire Lifetime* sitting in that chair, alone in that tiny room. Just Imagine the Amount of Rage you'd have built up towards Six . Makes sense how Relentless he is. Mono did not take the place of the TallMan. Mono was always the TallMan. Always. It was his Destiny.
@@thelionqueen5862 And when he chases himself he doesnt actually run or pull small Mono, instead he just slowly walks as if he wants to help/calm him down
He still has a heart, even as a villain... also is Shadow Six like Six's soul? Because it would make sense right... y'know the whole hunger issue from game 1 and her betraying Mono only happened after Shadow Six is separated from six.(Also I nicknamed Shadow Six "Three" since if she is Six's soul, she is technically only half of six, and half of the number 6 is 3.)
It's so freaking haunting. It's something that blows your mind when you see it for the first time. You don't even need any dialogue to feel the tension. It just gives off such a "look what happened to him and made him a monster" kind of vibe and I love it so much.
I liked Cory's reaction best because he didn't know that he was the tall dude and he wasn't theorizing, so his reaction was priceless when he found out who the tall guy really was
Agreed, it was more like the experience we’re supposed to get from it, the shock, the bewilderment. Too many people today wanna be smart and guess it before it happens
@@savannah8536 I mean it isn't always bad that people theorize.. like sometimes you right, sometimes you wrong, and honestly if you are commentating you are talking and thus are more likely to share your thoughts and have tangents... some games I have seen people play and commentate that when I played and wasn't talking at all I wasn't thinking or theorizing and thus got surprised
@@BaconNuke damn this was long ago so I had to re-read to get context. I never said it was inherently bad, just implying that it can be more fun to relax and enjoy the ride, rather than trying to figure out the story before it happens. I used to be bad about that myself, movies and such I’d always call before-hand. It sucks the fun out of it for others and it only served to give me an ego-boost of never being surprised, being too smart to be plot-twisted on. To me anyways. To each their own at the end of the day 🙂
27:51 The absolute change in emotion within a second hit me like a pile of bricks. Cory and Dawko's reactions got me feeling some type of way. When Lewis said "SHES GONNA LET GO!!!", I felt that emotion in my bones...
And thats why we love Dawko. His emotions are so real and you can feel them through the screen. When hes upset, youre upset. When hes happy, youre happy. He is just an amazing UA-camr with *true feelings* and doesnt do it for the views and stuff.
Wait so when he catches Mono during a chase, what the heck does he do to Mono afterwards? Does he help him escape separately from the place without Six betraying him.
The reason 6 even bothers to hold onto monos hand for a brief few seconds before letting him fall is because he needed to get some of monos energy to be able to travel through the tv screen
I’m surprised nobody has mentioned this but, during the transformation, you can see Mono twitch and shift in his seat in a sort of restless manner. But once he reaches adulthood, he stops and is completely still the rest of the transformation. I kind of wonder what Mono was going through mentally at those moments. Was he fighting the transformation? Was he slowly losing his sense of awareness? His personality? It’s the little details like this that really bring it home for me. Such a cool ending!
i noticed those too, the first time i watched cory's gameplay! mono was sorta moving his feet and fingers during the first two transformations, but then stays frozen on the rest. for sure u cant animate those details without a reason, theres gotta be something to it.
Remember, until the ending, Six never actually saw Mono's face because he always had on a hat. When Mono jumped and Six caught him, you can see they look directly at each other for the first real time and Six holds onto him for quite some time before dropping him. its very possible that Six recognizes Mono as the thin man and drops him to stop him from growing up to become him and trying to capture her, but he survives and becomes the thin man for that very reason and goes on to try and capture her anyway to stop her from ever dropping him.
then six is dumb. if she let go, then mono will become the thin man and capture her past self. if she knew that if she wouldn't drop mono, he will not be the thin man, and those two might still be surviving the messed up world. I think the reason that six dropped mono is because if her hunger. If you know the secret ending, you can hear six's hunger before shadow six appears There is also a small sound saying ''feed me'' in the end I heard it because I'm using headphones ;-;. Avoiding to herself to eat her friend-mono, she dropped him thinking is better that way and mono becomes the man and the loop restarts. Plus how could six recognize that mono is the thin man eventually? There is a lot of change. mono is a sweet and kind boy and thin man is trying to capture her thinking he was evil. Like the reactions above, at first they didn't realize mono is thin man. That's my theory.
I personally believed, (and this is darker than y’all theories) that while Mono and Six become friends, they lose that in the last chapter. Mono doesn’t save her from the Thin Man (Mono) whenever she reaches for him in the playroom and he hides and just watches her, leading to her becoming the monster in the Tower. Then, when he gets to her, she isn’t aggressive, but instead she opens her music box, something which makes her feel safe (she plays it in her room at the beginning, it relaxes her in the nightmare, she hums it’s tune throughout the first game to calm her.) to him, and what does he do? He breaks it. Yeah, he did this to save her, but she doesn’t see it that way. She cries as he hits it, and try’s to protect it. She feels betrayed by him, and as we can see, she can be a bit vindictive (Brutally kills bully, breaks mannequin’s fingers, warms herself by the furnace that is burning a living thing alive, and my personal favorite, killing everyone in the Maw when she gets her powers.). You can see it when she gets up after she returns to her normal self, she just glares at Mono, and while you can’t see her face, her body language says it all. When she dropped him, it was Revenge. She held him in her hand so that she could look at him one more time before she kills him (kind of a lion king move). It’s not as loving as y’all’s, but I feel the evidence points more towards this, and that it also fits in with the theme more.
No, six is not a good person. I believe that she held on to mono for so long because she was taking his powers of signal control. That's why she was able to go through the tv, and when she was done she dropped him. The reason I think this is because even in the first game, which is a sequel to this game, six was able to absorb the ladies powers as well.
@@haenyo6462 I think she’s a good person at the start of this game, then she progressively becomes evil towards the end of the game. But while she is descending into darkness, I think she still cared for Mono as a friend. But, when she thinks he betrays her, she hates him for it, then she takes that final step into evil by killing him.
I just want to thank you for having the title be "little nightmares 2 ending" instead of "mono becomes the thin man". I saw a reaction compilation that had that as the title and I was just like "wtf man people don't even have to click on the video to have the ending spoiled. why do you have to describe the ending In the video name? It could just be called reactions to LN2 ending."
Yes they shouldn't spoil in the title or thumbnail. I was waiting for jacksepticeye to put out a new episode and in my recommended the thumbnail literally said "why six betrayed mono" and something similar was the title of the video. The worst part though was how the word spoiler was in the title but by the time I saw that I had already read the thumbnail, so putting the spolier warning did literally nothing.
Yeah it does help for those who don’t wanna be ruined. This was one sick ending, it would be a shame if you had it robbed from you just from a mere mistake
Yeah i noticed that it's like he knew it since he was the thin man he knew that but didn't want to become him. And my theory is that it wasn't the (original) thin man's intention to take revenge on six for the betrayed the thin man was simply trying to save his younger self
@@seyiselaton so you’re saying mono realizes that he’s the thin man? If so then you’re wrong the game is a loop and if one of the then realizes that then the loop would stop
Six isnt rly a villain. Shes a child and seeing Mono’s face made her thought killing him would make Thin Boi cease to exist not knowing its literally what made Mono thin boi in the first place
@@speedcubix60that comment was meant for mono, as he was dropped and became the thin man ... ensuring the loop goes on. But Six does become the villain or at least becomes selfish and evil... Indicating Little Nightmares 1 and it's dlc's.
Mono wasn't a villain, he was trying to save his young version from the betrayal of six and save this universe. Because when the tower gets mono aka thin man powers, he uses it to consume the humans and make all this madness going in this world. The thin man tries to lure his young version to free him by sending him signals through those tvs.
I love that ryan just had a different theory compared to the others, he even mentioned the first game Also how Jacksepticeye just sweared at six instantly
If you look really close, you see Six's head tilting a little to the side as if she's thinking, then she leans a little closer to Mono, before letting go. The way she lets go also looks like something someone would do if shocked by something, with that amount of forceful pull back, instead of just casually opening her hand to let him go. And that's one of the reasons why I go for the theory that Six let go of him because she recognized him as Thin Man. The other reason is the fact that she caught him. If she didn't care for him anymore why didn't she immediately went for the portal after getting up? Instead she waited at the edge for him to jump and then caught him. Then she just stared at him like that for a long time because she found that he looked familiar, then recognized that he looked like the younger version of thin man.
Perhaps for sadistic reasons. To give him hope and then let go. Perhaps she's a vindictive character that didn't recognize him as her savior but someone who meddled with her trauma and who she was becoming (music box boss fight)
I like your reasoning and I think that Six let go because 1. She recognized him as the thin man 2. Mono broke her music box 3. She wanted to save him but she would of eaten him
@@dantdmfangamingrich9802 this is like really really late reply but the hunger didn’t start until she let go of him. I’ve been looking at theory’s and saw one that made total sense. In the secret ending clip u see six after she went thru the TV and than u see the shadow of six. The theory is that the shadow six is a part of her hunger or grieve or something that she lost after she dropped mono, and the only way to fix it is to eat.
22:09 THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY DID HE NOT REALIZE WHAT WAS HAPPENING, BUT HE ALSO THOUGHT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A HAPPY AND TOUCHING MOMENT MADE IT EVEN WORSE 💀💀💀
I love how Dawko tried to pass where the chair was to see if there is another way out of the "TV void". Destiny was set for Mono to be the Thin Man and those eyes knew it all along
I know I'm probably late with saying this but I think Thin Man is a time traveller, going back in time probably using the TVs, since Mono can teleport through them meaning he's travelling through space (the fleshy void) he might be able to travel through time too. He comes back to his past self, aka us, to correct our mistake. At first Thin Man tries to kidnap us, thinking if he can keep us away from Six she can never betrays us and the cycle would break, but he instead kidnaps six probably out of blind rage seeing an opportunity to take his revenge. Then with the help of the broadcast tower Mono turns Six into a monster, just like Six turned him into one. That's why he doesn't kill her, he wants Six to feel the pain he felt. Also take note that Thin Man isn't that aggressive, he doesn't run after you like every other enemy in the game. He calmly walks towards you, and if he does catch you he just holds you, unlike the other enemies in the game: the hunter shooting you, the teacher grabbing you in her mouth probably able to bite you in half, the students pinning you down and the Doctor, who doesn't do anything violent when he gets you, but he most likely has a motive to turn you into one of his creations, Thin Man just wants to keep you safe. Its funny that you go through this whole game thinking Six is your friend, but at the end the game tosses away everything you thought about her (well everything except the stuff you knew about her eating an innocent gnome and all that lol) and she becomes the villain, and every time you restart this game is another time your past self restarts the loop. But that's just my theory hate it or love it, its just the time loop theory lol. Just wanted to give my input Edit: damn over 300 likes and 19 replys? Probably the most i've gotten im not sure lol. If only I could get that on my videos (Not trying to advertise my yt channel just making a joke so dont get sensetive)
I mean I don’t see you as late and it makes sense since mono is the thin man then why the older version in the same time line so I think he can travel to the past or present as long as there’s something to broadcast.
I don’t think that it’s just thin man traveling to the past, because that doesn’t explain 6’s return to the Maw. Instead I think the broadcast tower itself is causing a loop in which only thin man knows what is happening because he is in the tower. This explains the everlasting loop of mono turning into thin man and 6 eating her old self and feeding off of the visitors
I just realized how much time Mono spent sitting there alone. Mono was 9 year old at the beginning. If you look at thin man's face you can say that he is probably 70-80 year old or something like that. Just imagine how long it is. This is so sad. I understand thin man😔😔
Fun fact: The cycle has been repeated 5 times (you playing the LN1 or/and LN2 is the 6th time). Not only was this confirmed but in LN2 they gave us a clue by putting a picture of 5 geisha’s (which is the lady) on the wall in the corridor of the lady’s head quarters.
That’s why Six is called.. Six. She is the reason this loop exists, each iteration was caused by Six betraying Mono. Since she is the anomaly, the person who created the timeline, it makes sense that her name is “Six.”
What I think was going on in Mono’s head: Kid: I wonder why She left me. Teen: Did she know what I was going to become? Young Adult: Did I fall one too many times? Adult: Was it out of rage? Old Man: I still don’t know. Thin Man: In the end, it won’t matter how long it’s been. I feel fine.
Maybe Six dropped Mono cause he was the one who released the Thin Man from the TV in the first place despite her trying to stop him, and the Thin Man kidnapped her and turned her into a monster.
But it is weird. He became the man in the hat because the Six had betrayed him. And Six betrayed him because she looked at his face and saw that it was a young version of the man in the hat.
She either dropped him because of his face which is a never ending cycle that we don't know how it started, or because he broke her music box. Anyone who tried to mess with her in the series got brutally killed so... 🤷♀️ or maybe a reason i don't know yet.
@Super Mario Show I mean, you can see similarities between when someone's younger pictures and themselves as old people. Especially if they aged well. This was the first time in the game Six saw his face so the theory still holds water.
I don’t believe it’s because she recognizes him, because then she would know that she is in a loop. She probably dropped him because he was a threat. As far as 6 knew mono had some strange power that connected him to the man who captured her and turned her into a monster. She thought that getting rid of mono here would guarentee her safety in the future so Mono doesn’t bring another thin man or big threat. 6 is a survivor, with a survivor mindset to keep themselves safe no matter the cost
Maybe it won't stop until the thin man gets his revenge on six and stop his original self from saving six and also to prevent his original self from turning into thin man for me thin man isn't a villain he was just trying to break the loop
They blew almost everyone's mind with that ending. They certainly did with mine. Its so iconic and tragic. The perfect twisted tragic ending with the best emotionally sad tragic,betrayed and rage filled music to go with it. Every single time i listen to the 'End of the Hall' it gives me chills and i will shed some tear if watched the whole ending. The sadness in it is so tragic man. The betrayal. The regret. Imagine being stuck in a room for many,many years with only your thought of your betrayal and rage. He just sits there,patiently. Arguably,one of the best if not the best ending in gaming history. Tarsier Studio made a masterpiece for sure. Both LN1 and LN2 is masterpiece.
Here’s to clear up the sequel/prequel issue: This whole universe is stuck in a loop. So after the events of the first game it loops back again. This means the content of this game is a prequel. However, this game itself is a sequel because it is a loop after the first game. There are still some little confusion with this, like how the 6 in from first game would have to fight 6 from the second game but it is the best solution I could come up with
@@Dizal0 IT'S NOT WITH STEVE it's one of thoes eyes mono did name when he was alone it's fan comic it's funny and sad that we know that mono will stay there more then 50years as you said
So mono is the thin man. He is trying to save himself from suffering the same fate many times over...it's a never ending loop!!! Golly the ending gives me the chills.
Time travelling / looping endings usually always go tragically. Theres noway to escape from the future if you know it, it will inevitably come. Six never saw Monos face until the end so she lets him go thinking he won't become the Thin Man / or interrupt with her plans in the future, and The Thin man had been chasing himself to stop him ever turning this way.
@Boran Yıldız Lmao, FR! The game developers literally create FALSE HOPE for the gamer throughout the game with six pulling Mono up multiple time from Bridges.
When the Thin Man sits in the chair, you can see that he's slightly rocking himself back and forth and moving his fingers. Idk what it means, I just decide to mention it because you don't usually animate stuff like that for no reason.
In the earlier game we don’t see thin man rocking. Take that and the fact we see thin man in the TV at the end of Secrets of the Maw and one might come to the conclusion he isn’t trapped anymore.
!Spoilers! When I just started playing Little Nightmares ll, I thought it was a sequel for Little Nightmares. But when Six got her Yellow Raincoat…..it hit me hard. I realized that it was a prequel. I started wondering: “Well, where’s Mono in Little Nightmares if this a prequel?” When I beat the game…I was in shock. I couldn’t believe the betrayal of Six dropping Mono. It broke my heart to see Mono get betrayed like that. I don’t dislike or hate Six. And I do realize why she dropped Mono. But it still hurts. It hurts really bad. I still cry randomly to this day to think about the ending of this spectacular, well made game. It hurts too think about what Mono felt when Six, his “friend” let him go. Imagine you have a close friend, for example: my friend/crush, Kade. (We pray that he doesn’t see this comment. ;-;) Imagine if your friend saves your life, let’s say catches you before you fall off a cliff. They stare into your eyes for moment. You look at each other. Then….you friend let’s go. You fall. Your in shock. Your devastated. Your lost. As you fall, you remember all your memory’s with you and your friend. The good, the bad, the awkward, the funny, the silly. All of them. You don’t survive the fall. (Not in Mono’s case) Your gone, forever. Even though this wasn’t Mono’s case, he still thought the same way as he fell. (In my theory.) I love Mono & Six so much like their part of my family. I’d give up anything for Six & Mono ti have a happy ending.
Plot twist: Six was just making a sacrifice at Vormir for the Soul stone Double plot twist: Six was told everyone floats down here and told Mono “you’ll float too” before dropping him
This may sound stupid, but dawko bringing up the idea that the fleshy walls surrounding you at the end could be the humans is a very interesting point. Once Mono sits on the chair, all the eyes are staring at him. Throughout the whole game, people are obsessed with watching the TV's. Maybe they watching him for some reason? Not only that, but when the walls start to cave in on Mono its like when you're trying to tune the TV, he gets teleported into that room behind the door. Everytime the Mono you play nearly gets to the door, once you teleport away the Mono behind the door gets older. This happens each time untill eventually you get to the door, and once you finally get to the door and open it, the older Mono is free.
The working theory is that Mono uses souls in order to use his power. When he is thin man, he is using the broadcasts to prey upon the people in the cities souls, powering him. This also explains why six loses her soul after using his power. She has nothing powering her and her soul is used as the power, making her hungry for more souls.
Ngl this whole scene in the game never fails to put shivers down my spin each time I see it. Especially when they play those heart reaching chords as six drops you. MAN-
Mono : Risks his own life to make sure Six survives and gets back to her senses without spending the rest of her existence as a difformed monster brainwashed by a coping music box. Six : *So I took that personally*
I literally love this ending so much! I can't get enough of it! I'm so glad I decided to play this one first before Little Nightmares 1 because I think I would have guessed Six would do something to Mono, or like eat him
This scene is when I realized how good the storywriting is in this game. Even though Six betrayed Mono, her action doesn't feel like it's out of character, since we already saw the glimpse of what kind of person she is in the first game.
11:50 Her soul left her body. She also lost memories and she now just wants to fill her hunger. Also I think she recognized mono as the Thin Man, and she thought that killing him would end all of this, but it just made it worse, and restarted the cicle. Thin Man just wanted to keep Six away from himself, so that he would never become the Thin Man, and so that he could be able to live his "normal" life... But guess nothing can change the past.
I think Six betrayed us for a lot of reasons. First because she just thought she didn't need Mono anymore. Secondly, she probably thought Mono was the thin man, because he has the same power of him. But, I think Six let Mono fall also because of the carillon thing, because when Mono calls her when she's a monster, Six puts the carillon on the ground, she just wants to share her toy with us. But when Mono breaks her carillon, she feels angry at him. Remember she is just 9. So, all those thing togheter, made Six not save us, and instead let us fall. This is my theory, at least.
@Sophia Degand yeah those theories doesn't make sense I mean I think Six gets her Hunger when shadow Six appears and yeah maybe the carillon has an importance to her so she feels betrayed by Mono.
I don’t really think she was that mad about the carillon. The carillon was the thin mans way of keeping her in that form. I think that with six being in that mindset controlled by the current thin man and realizing like, damn, how tf he know what to do? And also like all that I think that the only part of her that was actually her in that form was that and so then she realized that it’s a time loop and he is the thin man
This is truly sad for me for one reason, the truth is, it takes YEARS to be corrupted which means that mono spent about 85 years of no food, no water, no entertainment, and nobody to talk to. The reality is that the tall man (aka mono) was trying to warn his younger self of six, trying to take her away all to end his horrible future but it never works out so it’s just an endless cycle of pain, agony, and suffering. After all there are fates worse then death
Imagine getting betrayed by your crush and becoming a monster haha... Oh wait Edit: im joking yall started an argument on the reply section. Also im not shipping them because shipping👏children👏is👏wrong
Im convinced youtube is reading my mind, I had not thought about this in like 2 years and just an hour ago I was thinking I'd wanna see some gameplay of it and then this just randomly appears on my FYP
That hate, that Thin Man/Mono felt sitting on chair... It gave me the most intense feeling of all the games I've ever played or looked😨😨😨The music also worked well!
Oh my god I’ve only just realized that tall guy was trying to help mono this whole time, he was trying to take six away so mono never becomes tall guy and when that didn’t work he tried taking mono away from six so that they can never go to the building and be betrayed.
Yea me too but it’s his choice and hopefully he uploads it’s been a week it’s probably him helping his mom with her business but I’m worried that he might be taking a break or having a mental breakdown of ln2s ending.
@@rachidvinas5472 yeah bro but i hope its with helping his mom and like he needs that retirment i get that totaly...but he needs to play other games and so mich more, long live the samurai (oh and we hit 9 mil dont forget that)
i love how mono knew if he attacked, nothing would change and that it would still be a loop, but his hatred makes him not care. he just wanted revenge not caring if he’ll win or lose
Here's a theory. What if six knows about the loop and tried to save mono before and eventually she realises that no matter how many times she tries to save mono it's nothing will happen and she let go of him realising that saving him will be pointless and time will just repeat itself itself
It’s possible that she kills him because he resembles the thin man, but her betrayal only caused him to BECOME the thin man. Which in turn makes the thin man capture her and the cycle repeats.
If Mono had picked his bag back up things would have been a lot different. Kinda messed up when ya think about it, the player feels so betrayed but Six probably feel about the same when she gets a good look at Mono's face. I think that may be the point. Time is screwed up in the tower so Six was mentally wrecked for a long time based on how big she was in monster form. My real question is what would have happened if Shadow Six went in, could the Thin man even touch Shadow.
What if little nightmares is called little nightmares bc you play as young tall man in his nightmare, and older tall man trying to save his own life and repair his mistake but fails and is stuck inside other world. Sorry for my english tho
I think you’re talking about the main theory people have: the games are a time loop. An endless cycle of thin man trying to save past mono, past mono defeating him, getting betrayed, and then becoming thin man. Over and over and over again. Also your English is great, don’t worry about it!
Six did this because when she was finally feeling safe in the tv world, never wanting to leave, Mono who wanted to help her actually dragged her back put to the same hell she didn't want to come back to Mono just wanted to help Six, but she didn't understand Don't be like it's all Six's fault, she has also been through a lot
The hopes they had 😩🔫: 0:25 "let's Goo , cmonn" 5:59 "cmonn!" 11:27 "yEs ..Yessss!" 16:52 "awh thank you six!" 22:07 "I could have made that jump by myself" 27:47 "YesSssss!"
People love putting the blame on six and just use the easy answer of oh she's just a bad person. You play as Mono so obviously everything is shown from his perspective, but I think sometimes his determination and good intentions leads to a onetrack mindedness that overlooks consequences. One of the earliest things I remember noticing is when you rescue Six from the bullies at the school, you release her by cutting the rope that has her suspended in the air. Problem is, she's suspended pretty far up. And instead of dragging over something soft to land on, you just drop her right on her head on the tile. I remember the whole time I was thinking "Is this really what we are supposed to be doing?" When she lands, there's a pretty loud crack, and it takes her a pretty long time to get up. I honestly thought she had died and I made a mistake. The thin man is released by Mono, who then captures Six. Each time you enter the mysterious corridor via TV, Six always falls beside you when you come out, hinting that she's the one that pulls you out every time, maybe trying to prevent you from staying inside too long. But as the two run away from the thin man, Six falls and tries to reach out for him. Mono hides instead of trying to help her, the one time she actually reaches out for him. Then in the tower, you encounter monster six. At this point, she isn't violent towards Mono, seems to recognize his voice, and is willing to share the music box with him. Before trying anything else, Mono smashes the music box, which seems to physically hurt her. She only becomes aggressive after you've continued smashing the music box multiple times. In fact, his calls get louder and stronger as time goes on, as if he's getting more confident. He has decided that through smashing the music box, he is saving Six. Without first understanding whether it's the correct choice, how much it hurts her, if there are other less traumatic options, and whether it will even work. Lastly, because of the timeloop shenanigans, we don't know how long Six has been in the tower, or how much time she has been with the tall man. It's very possible that she has figured out that Mono IS the Tall man, and therefor is the one that imprisoned her. Maybe she thought dropping and killing him would stop the tall man from coming into existence, not realizing it was the catalyst to his creation. Maybe in her mind, Mono had betrayed her first. and allllll of this is still ignoring the hunger, which Six seems to begin experiencing towards the end of the game. Maybe she knew that if she pulled Mono up, she would eat him. And decided to let go instead. Little nightmares is a great game with fantastic atmosphere and world building. Writing in a character betrayal that boils down to "Six is bad" just doesn't seem right, and having fans boil it down so simplistically instead of giving it any critical thought is just weird.
@@angingis5922 Yes yes that's what Im saying! There is another organization at work, symbolized by the eye, seen multiple times throughout the 2 games. We see the eye all over the Maw in pictures, carved into the wood, and hanging as mirrors. The Eye also appears as scribbles and drawings found in the school, it's in the tower, and lastly, it's the motif on the door trapping the Thin man. There is nothing in the LN series that ever explains the significance of the eye, so why is it such a prominent symbol? What we know is that there are certain places (The maw in LN1 and the tower in LN2) that have the power to control society at large. However, the maw starts to crumble once the Lady is killed, likewise the tower falls apart once the Thin Man is defeated. What we can assume is that these places NEED these powerful children to be at the center for them to work. So.....why? 2 kids (with powers that are not seen in any of the other children in the series) just happen to stumble into places that they themselves have the ability to power? How unlikely is that? NO MATTER what happens in the story, six was ALWAYS going to end up on the maw, just like mono was ALWAYS going to be trapped in the tower. We know this is a time loop, and we know this has happened over and over again. This antagonistic organization has to make sure that Mono and Six separate and arrive at the right places, to power these points and to keep control of the masses. This shadowy organization has followed and manipulated every aspect of these children's lives to ensure that they both end up exactly where they need to be. However, their influence and manipulation is so subtle, so quiet, that it is mostly ignored. The eye motif serves as the logo for the LN series. Did the kids ever have a choice? Was anything freewill, or was everything predetermined? Why is Mono constantly drawn to the TVS? Why is six specifically taken to the tower? What is the black shadow that leads Mono to Six in the tower? Six was captured, but she is simply placed in a room, seemingly waiting to be rescued. Why is the answer to her rescue so traumatic? Traumatic enough to drop Mono into the Tower? Who is keeping the Thin man behind that door? Why does Six see the Maw on a newspaper immediately after escaping, right after feeling pain from the hunger? None of this is questioned, because people focus on the wrong thing. And that is probably intentional. Shadowy organizations work best if the common people only argue amongst themselves, right? Everyone is always arguing about six vs. mono, who was right and who was wrong. In reality, they were children, maybe unthinking and selfish at times, but all they wanted was to make it out alive. There is clearly a true antagonist working in the shadows, but they remain invisible. How can six be painted as a villian? I don't think she ever had a choice to begin with.
Mono got so depressed He grow up thin and tall He chased his younger Self to end the cycle but younger mono defeated old mono, Now The cycle never ends because of six

I will never get enough of this ending, I swear. While the “hero becomes the villain / villain was the hero all along” storyline isn’t really revolutionary (it’s been done many times before) the foreshadowing, build-up, and the reveal itself were executed so well in my opinion. On my first viewing I was absolutely flabbergasted and I still get chills whenever I so much as hear ‘The End of the Hall’. 10/10 would cry again.

If you think about it everyone is hating six from this end. Meanwhile we were all feeling bada** walking down the hall and killing everyone. Something to think about.
Same hear. Never seen or experienced such an emotional ending in my whole life.
I love how much we were all shocked from Six's betrayal, as if it was such a twist in her character, despite the fact that we've seen her be an absolute monster in the first game.
If you’ve seen what Six does at the end of very little nightmares, then it really does come as a surprise. Also LN2 takes place before LN1, so the games pretty much display Six’s mental deterioration

He still has a heart, even as a villain... also is Shadow Six like Six's soul?

27:51 The absolute change in emotion within a second hit me like a pile of bricks. Cory and Dawko's reactions got me feeling some type of way. When Lewis said "SHES GONNA LET GO!!!", I felt that emotion in my bones...

Wait so when he catches Mono during a chase, what the heck does he do to Mono afterwards? Does he help him escape separately from the place without Six betraying him.
The reason 6 even bothers to hold onto monos hand for a brief few seconds before letting him fall is because he needed to get some of monos energy to be able to travel through the tv screen

ngl, I was calling her a bitch for like half the game- even in the first game whenever she was slow or something lmaoooo
I’m surprised nobody has mentioned this but, during the transformation, you can see Mono twitch and shift in his seat in a sort of restless manner. But once he reaches adulthood, he stops and is completely still the rest of the transformation. I kind of wonder what Mono was going through mentally at those moments. Was he fighting the transformation? Was he slowly losing his sense of awareness? His personality?
It’s the little details like this that really bring it home for me. Such a cool ending!
i noticed those too, the first time i watched cory's gameplay! mono was sorta moving his feet and fingers during the first two transformations, but then stays frozen on the rest. for sure u cant animate those details without a reason, theres gotta be something to it.
Thats a cool observation
I never noticed that, thanks for pointing that out!!
Mono-“I HAVE to know what’s at the end of the Hall!”
Thin Man-“No… _you don’t._ “
All what he'll find at the end of the hall will be the truth the hard saddened truth 💯 😕
Thin man : You won't find anything except a chair and your legs hanging from the ceiling
Remember, until the ending, Six never actually saw Mono's face because he always had on a hat. When Mono jumped and Six caught him, you can see they look directly at each other for the first real time and Six holds onto him for quite some time before dropping him. its very possible that Six recognizes Mono as the thin man and drops him to stop him from growing up to become him and trying to capture her, but he survives and becomes the thin man for that very reason and goes on to try and capture her anyway to stop her from ever dropping him.
then six is dumb. if she let go, then mono will become the thin man and capture her past self. if she knew that if she wouldn't drop mono, he will not be the thin man, and those two might still be surviving the messed up world. I think the reason that six dropped mono is because if her hunger. If you know the secret ending, you can hear six's hunger before shadow six appears There is also a small sound saying ''feed me'' in the end I heard it because I'm using headphones ;-;. Avoiding to herself to eat her friend-mono, she dropped him thinking is better that way and mono becomes the man and the loop restarts. Plus how could six recognize that mono is the thin man eventually? There is a lot of change. mono is a sweet and kind boy and thin man is trying to capture her thinking he was evil. Like the reactions above, at first they didn't realize mono is thin man. That's my theory.
I personally believed, (and this is darker than y’all theories) that while Mono and Six become friends, they lose that in the last chapter. Mono doesn’t save her from the Thin Man (Mono) whenever she reaches for him in the playroom and he hides and just watches her, leading to her becoming the monster in the Tower. Then, when he gets to her, she isn’t aggressive, but instead she opens her music box, something which makes her feel safe (she plays it in her room at the beginning, it relaxes her in the nightmare, she hums it’s tune throughout the first game to calm her.) to him, and what does he do? He breaks it. Yeah, he did this to save her, but she doesn’t see it that way. She cries as he hits it, and try’s to protect it. She feels betrayed by him, and as we can see, she can be a bit vindictive (Brutally kills bully, breaks mannequin’s fingers, warms herself by the furnace that is burning a living thing alive, and my personal favorite, killing everyone in the Maw when she gets her powers.). You can see it when she gets up after she returns to her normal self, she just glares at Mono, and while you can’t see her face, her body language says it all. When she dropped him, it was Revenge. She held him in her hand so that she could look at him one more time before she kills him (kind of a lion king move). It’s not as loving as y’all’s, but I feel the evidence points more towards this, and that it also fits in with the theme more.
@@TJ_Strick That's my other theory.
No, six is not a good person. I believe that she held on to mono for so long because she was taking his powers of signal control. That's why she was able to go through the tv, and when she was done she dropped him. The reason I think this is because even in the first game, which is a sequel to this game, six was able to absorb the ladies powers as well.
@@haenyo6462 I think she’s a good person at the start of this game, then she progressively becomes evil towards the end of the game. But while she is descending into darkness, I think she still cared for Mono as a friend. But, when she thinks he betrays her, she hates him for it, then she takes that final step into evil by killing him.
I just want to thank you for having the title be "little nightmares 2 ending" instead of "mono becomes the thin man". I saw a reaction compilation that had that as the title and I was just like "wtf man people don't even have to click on the video to have the ending spoiled. why do you have to describe the ending In the video name? It could just be called reactions to LN2 ending."
Not everyone thinks that much about spoilers when writing about things.
I respect that
Yeah, I hadn't seen the ending of the game and someone titled their video 'how Six betrays Mono', I was so angry
Yes they shouldn't spoil in the title or thumbnail. I was waiting for jacksepticeye to put out a new episode and in my recommended the thumbnail literally said "why six betrayed mono" and something similar was the title of the video. The worst part though was how the word spoiler was in the title but by the time I saw that I had already read the thumbnail, so putting the spolier warning did literally nothing.
Yeah it does help for those who don’t wanna be ruined. This was one sick ending, it would be a shame if you had it robbed from you just from a mere mistake
I love how they all know he is ganna be thin man

Sorry I thought you were saying Cory knew about the plot.

It's Obious Due To They have The Same Ability
I like how it gives you just enough time to process what just happened before the gameplay resumes
The realization in Cory’s eyes when she doesn’t pull him up will forever be a top 10 playthrough moment for me 😂
If you notice at the end mono doesn't struggle like he knows what is going to happen
Yeah i noticed that it's like he knew it since he was the thin man he knew that but didn't want to become him.
And my theory is that it wasn't the (original) thin man's intention to take revenge on six for the betrayed the thin man was simply trying to save his younger self
@@seyiselaton so you’re saying mono realizes that he’s the thin man? If so then you’re wrong the game is a loop and if one of the then realizes that then the loop would stop

Six isnt rly a villain. Shes a child and seeing Mono’s face made her thought killing him would make Thin Boi cease to exist not knowing its literally what made Mono thin boi in the first place
@@speedcubix60that comment was meant for mono, as he was dropped and became the thin man ... ensuring the loop goes on. But Six does become the villain or at least becomes selfish and evil... Indicating Little Nightmares 1 and it's dlc's.
@@speedcubix60what monster thinking it can change a future
Or “you live as a villain, or you become the monster your hate”
Mono wasn't a villain, he was trying to save his young version from the betrayal of six and save this universe.
Because when the tower gets mono aka thin man powers, he uses it to consume the humans and make all this madness going in this world.
The thin man tries to lure his young version to free him by sending him signals through those tvs.
I love that ryan just had a different theory compared to the others, he even mentioned the first game
Also how Jacksepticeye just sweared at six instantly
The fact that mono is growing is tragic but the fact that chair is growing with him is...
The magic of the Broadcast.
With the power of editing magic
The broadcast even gave mono a suit and a hat
The tower is sentient, we can see the walls turn into eyeball. So the furniture is also sentient, and probably grew with him. Gross.
not too mention he just grew a hat lmao
If you look really close, you see Six's head tilting a little to the side as if she's thinking, then she leans a little closer to Mono, before letting go. The way she lets go also looks like something someone would do if shocked by something, with that amount of forceful pull back, instead of just casually opening her hand to let him go.
And that's one of the reasons why I go for the theory that Six let go of him because she recognized him as Thin Man. The other reason is the fact that she caught him. If she didn't care for him anymore why didn't she immediately went for the portal after getting up? Instead she waited at the edge for him to jump and then caught him. Then she just stared at him like that for a long time because she found that he looked familiar, then recognized that he looked like the younger version of thin man.
I know that but my heart wants to believe that she was just hungry and I DO know LN 2 is a prequel but I can't accept it😭😭😭
Perhaps for sadistic reasons. To give him hope and then let go. Perhaps she's a vindictive character that didn't recognize him as her savior but someone who meddled with her trauma and who she was becoming (music box boss fight)
I like your reasoning and I think that Six let go because
1. She recognized him as the thin man
2. Mono broke her music box
3. She wanted to save him but she would of eaten him
@@dantdmfangamingrich9802 this is like really really late reply but the hunger didn’t start until she let go of him. I’ve been looking at theory’s and saw one that made total sense. In the secret ending clip u see six after she went thru the TV and than u see the shadow of six. The theory is that the shadow six is a part of her hunger or grieve or something that she lost after she dropped mono, and the only way to fix it is to eat.
Then why didn't she let him go any of the other like 20 times she caught us? Why wait until his mask was gone?
Most funny reaction is Corrykenshin "after everything we done for her", most wanted reaction is 8bitryan "don't Gandalf the grey me"
22:09 THE FACT THAT NOT ONLY DID HE NOT REALIZE WHAT WAS HAPPENING, BUT HE ALSO THOUGHT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A HAPPY AND TOUCHING MOMENT MADE IT EVEN WORSE 💀💀💀
I love how Dawko tried to pass where the chair was to see if there is another way out of the "TV void". Destiny was set for Mono to be the Thin Man and those eyes knew it all along
I know I'm probably late with saying this but I think Thin Man is a time traveller, going back in time probably using the TVs, since Mono can teleport through them meaning he's travelling through space (the fleshy void) he might be able to travel through time too. He comes back to his past self, aka us, to correct our mistake.
At first Thin Man tries to kidnap us, thinking if he can keep us away from Six she can never betrays us and the cycle would break, but he instead kidnaps six probably out of blind rage seeing an opportunity to take his revenge. Then with the help of the broadcast tower Mono turns Six into a monster, just like Six turned him into one. That's why he doesn't kill her, he wants Six to feel the pain he felt.
Also take note that Thin Man isn't that aggressive, he doesn't run after you like every other enemy in the game. He calmly walks towards you, and if he does catch you he just holds you, unlike the other enemies in the game: the hunter shooting you, the teacher grabbing you in her mouth probably able to bite you in half, the students pinning you down and the Doctor, who doesn't do anything violent when he gets you, but he most likely has a motive to turn you into one of his creations, Thin Man just wants to keep you safe. Its funny that you go through this whole game thinking Six is your friend, but at the end the game tosses away everything you thought about her (well everything except the stuff you knew about her eating an innocent gnome and all that lol) and she becomes the villain, and every time you restart this game is another time your past self restarts the loop. But that's just my theory hate it or love it, its just the time loop theory lol. Just wanted to give my input
Edit: damn over 300 likes and 19 replys? Probably the most i've gotten im not sure lol. If only I could get that on my videos
(Not trying to advertise my yt channel just making a joke so dont get sensetive)
It’s kind true
I mean I don’t see you as late and it makes sense since mono is the thin man then why the older version in the same time line so I think he can travel to the past or present as long as there’s something to broadcast.
I think its true
correct
I don’t think that it’s just thin man traveling to the past, because that doesn’t explain 6’s return to the Maw. Instead I think the broadcast tower itself is causing a loop in which only thin man knows what is happening because he is in the tower. This explains the everlasting loop of mono turning into thin man and 6 eating her old self and feeding off of the visitors

Yup a time hoax never ending time loop
Also, there are multiple tv’s in that forest clearing at the start of the game, like the one mono comes out of at the start.
That’s why Six is called.. Six. She is the reason this loop exists, each iteration was caused by Six betraying Mono. Since she is the anomaly, the person who created the timeline, it makes sense that her name is “Six.”
@T0B3573R I mean, I think theres also the fact that shes the sixth child that is brought by the ferryman to the maw.

Kid: I wonder why She left me.

Young Adult: Did I fall one too many times?
Adult: Was it out of rage?

Maybe Six dropped Mono cause he was the one who released the Thin Man from the TV in the first place despite her trying to stop him, and the Thin Man kidnapped her and turned her into a monster.
@@tofferooni4972 Bruh then that's just childish- ohhhhhh right she's a child
But it is weird. He became the man in the hat because the Six had betrayed him. And Six betrayed him because she looked at his face and saw that it was a young version of the man in the hat.
She either dropped him because of his face which is a never ending cycle that we don't know how it started, or because he broke her music box. Anyone who tried to mess with her in the series got brutally killed so... 🤷♀️ or maybe a reason i don't know yet.
@Super Mario Show I mean, you can see similarities between when someone's younger pictures and themselves as old people. Especially if they aged well. This was the first time in the game Six saw his face so the theory still holds water.
What if she dropped him because signal interference
It's a loop. Unless one of them realises that, it won't end.
I don’t believe it’s because she recognizes him, because then she would know that she is in a loop. She probably dropped him because he was a threat. As far as 6 knew mono had some strange power that connected him to the man who captured her and turned her into a monster. She thought that getting rid of mono here would guarentee her safety in the future so Mono doesn’t bring another thin man or big threat. 6 is a survivor, with a survivor mindset to keep themselves safe no matter the cost
The cycle never stops and the nightmare continues.....
Maybe it won't stop until the thin man gets his revenge on six and stop his original self from saving six and also to prevent his original self from turning into thin man for me thin man isn't a villain he was just trying to break the loop

They blew almost everyone's mind with that ending. They certainly did with mine. Its so iconic and tragic. The perfect twisted tragic ending with the best emotionally sad tragic,betrayed and rage filled music to go with it. Every single time i listen to the 'End of the Hall' it gives me chills and i will shed some tear if watched the whole ending.
The sadness in it is so tragic man. The betrayal. The regret. Imagine being stuck in a room for many,many years with only your thought of your betrayal and rage. He just sits there,patiently.
Arguably,one of the best if not the best ending in gaming history. Tarsier Studio made a masterpiece for sure. Both LN1 and LN2 is masterpiece.
Here’s to clear up the sequel/prequel issue:
This whole universe is stuck in a loop. So after the events of the first game it loops back again. This means the content of this game is a prequel. However, this game itself is a sequel because it is a loop after the first game. There are still some little confusion with this, like how the 6 in from first game would have to fight 6 from the second game but it is the best solution I could come up with

Time travelling / looping endings usually always go tragically. Theres noway to escape from the future if you know it, it will inevitably come.

I still cry randomly to this day to think about the ending of this spectacular, well made game. It hurts too think about what Mono felt when Six, his “friend” let him go. Imagine you have a close friend, for example: my friend/crush, Kade. (We pray that he doesn’t see this comment. ;-;) Imagine if your friend saves your life, let’s say catches you before you fall off a cliff. They stare into your eyes for moment. You look at each other. Then….you friend let’s go. You fall. Your in shock. Your devastated. Your lost. As you fall, you remember all your memory’s with you and your friend. The good, the bad, the awkward, the funny, the silly. All of them. You don’t survive the fall. (Not in Mono’s case) Your gone, forever. Even though this wasn’t Mono’s case, he still thought the same way as he fell. (In my theory.) I love Mono & Six so much like their part of my family. I’d give up anything for Six & Mono ti have a happy ending.
See the box guy grew up in hell for years! And now he is looking for he’s revenge 💔 Villains are not born, Villains are made💔

So right tho cus six x mono is wrongggg
This may sound stupid, but dawko bringing up the idea that the fleshy walls surrounding you at the end could be the humans is a very interesting point. Once Mono sits on the chair, all the eyes are staring at him. Throughout the whole game, people are obsessed with watching the TV's. Maybe they watching him for some reason?
Not only that, but when the walls start to cave in on Mono its like when you're trying to tune the TV, he gets teleported into that room behind the door. Everytime the Mono you play nearly gets to the door, once you teleport away the Mono behind the door gets older. This happens each time untill eventually you get to the door, and once you finally get to the door and open it, the older Mono is free.
The working theory is that Mono uses souls in order to use his power. When he is thin man, he is using the broadcasts to prey upon the people in the cities souls, powering him. This also explains why six loses her soul after using his power. She has nothing powering her and her soul is used as the power, making her hungry for more souls.
@@ahhsurr2199 ah true

Dawko’s reaction to basically anything is the best.

This betrayal was worse than when Lotso betrayed Woody in Toy Story 3

Lol
He became thin man because of six
Por mono T_T
Either in henry stickmin?
I literally love this ending so much! I can't get enough of it! I'm so glad I decided to play this one first before Little Nightmares 1 because I think I would have guessed Six would do something to Mono, or like eat him
This scene is when I realized how good the storywriting is in this game.
Even though Six betrayed Mono, her action doesn't feel like it's out of character, since we already saw the glimpse of what kind of person she is in the first game.
11:50
Her soul left her body. She also lost memories and she now just wants to fill her hunger. Also I think she recognized mono as the Thin Man, and she thought that killing him would end all of this, but it just made it worse, and restarted the cicle. Thin Man just wanted to keep Six away from himself, so that he would never become the Thin Man, and so that he could be able to live his "normal" life... But guess nothing can change the past.
I think Six betrayed us for a lot of reasons. First because she just thought she didn't need Mono anymore. Secondly, she probably thought Mono was the thin man, because he has the same power of him. But, I think Six let Mono fall also because of the carillon thing, because when Mono calls her when she's a monster, Six puts the carillon on the ground, she just wants to share her toy with us. But when Mono breaks her carillon, she feels angry at him. Remember she is just 9. So, all those thing togheter, made Six not save us, and instead let us fall. This is my theory, at least.
@Sophia Degand yeah those theories doesn't make sense I mean I think Six gets her Hunger when shadow Six appears and yeah maybe the carillon has an importance to her so she feels betrayed by Mono.
ok matpat
Nope she sees his face for the first time and realises its the thin men and lets him die
I don’t really think she was that mad about the carillon. The carillon was the thin mans way of keeping her in that form. I think that with six being in that mindset controlled by the current thin man and realizing like, damn, how tf he know what to do? And also like all that I think that the only part of her that was actually her in that form was that and so then she realized that it’s a time loop and he is the thin man
Alot of people think she was sparing mono from being canabalized by her but i doubt it.
cory knew before she dropped him
Wow

Truly one of the best game I've ever played.. So excited for a part 3 hope it happens
This is truly sad for me for one reason, the truth is, it takes YEARS to be corrupted which means that mono spent about 85 years of no food, no water, no entertainment, and nobody to talk to. The reality is that the tall man (aka mono) was trying to warn his younger self of six, trying to take her away all to end his horrible future but it never works out so it’s just an endless cycle of pain, agony, and suffering. After all there are fates worse then death

@@jamieli5136 i know
i love how mono knew if he attacked, nothing would change and that it would still be a loop, but his hatred makes him not care. he just wanted revenge not caring if he’ll win or lose
Here's a theory. What if six knows about the loop and tried to save mono before and eventually she realises that no matter how many times she tries to save mono it's nothing will happen and she let go of him realising that saving him will be pointless and time will just repeat itself itself
It’s possible that she kills him because he resembles the thin man, but her betrayal only caused him to BECOME the thin man. Which in turn makes the thin man capture her and the cycle repeats.
Like the other person already said, he becomes thin man because of the betrayal
If Mono had picked his bag back up things would have been a lot different. Kinda messed up when ya think about it, the player feels so betrayed but Six probably feel about the same when she gets a good look at Mono's face. I think that may be the point. Time is screwed up in the tower so Six was mentally wrecked for a long time based on how big she was in monster form. My real question is what would have happened if Shadow Six went in, could the Thin man even touch Shadow.
Guys this was the best plot twist I have ever seen in a videogame. When i saw it, I just had the goosebups
What if little nightmares is called little nightmares bc you play as young tall man in his nightmare, and older tall man trying to save his own life and repair his mistake but fails and is stuck inside other world. Sorry for my english tho
I think you’re talking about the main theory people have: the games are a time loop. An endless cycle of thin man trying to save past mono, past mono defeating him, getting betrayed, and then becoming thin man. Over and over and over again.
Also your English is great, don’t worry about it!
Everyone : six why?!
Dan: six was the hero?!
Me: and I took that personally
4:13 it doesn't get more mind blown than this. He's LITERALLY holding his head because his brain xD
Out of every single video game to exist. I think this was the biggest twist ever
Six did this because when she was finally feeling safe in the tv world, never wanting to leave, Mono who wanted to help her actually dragged her back put to the same hell she didn't want to come back to
Mono just wanted to help Six, but she didn't understand
Don't be like it's all Six's fault, she has also been through a lot
the soundtrack of that moment said everything
Thin Man wasn't the bad guy, he was trying to save himself from eternal torment
tbh i wonder if anyone noticed how much people swore in XQcOW live chat lol

This twist *broke* me for months, and the amazing song going along with it helped perfectly.
People love putting the blame on six and just use the easy answer of oh she's just a bad person. You play as Mono so obviously everything is shown from his perspective, but I think sometimes his determination and good intentions leads to a onetrack mindedness that overlooks consequences.
One of the earliest things I remember noticing is when you rescue Six from the bullies at the school, you release her by cutting the rope that has her suspended in the air. Problem is, she's suspended pretty far up. And instead of dragging over something soft to land on, you just drop her right on her head on the tile. I remember the whole time I was thinking "Is this really what we are supposed to be doing?" When she lands, there's a pretty loud crack, and it takes her a pretty long time to get up. I honestly thought she had died and I made a mistake.
The thin man is released by Mono, who then captures Six. Each time you enter the mysterious corridor via TV, Six always falls beside you when you come out, hinting that she's the one that pulls you out every time, maybe trying to prevent you from staying inside too long. But as the two run away from the thin man, Six falls and tries to reach out for him. Mono hides instead of trying to help her, the one time she actually reaches out for him.
Then in the tower, you encounter monster six. At this point, she isn't violent towards Mono, seems to recognize his voice, and is willing to share the music box with him. Before trying anything else, Mono smashes the music box, which seems to physically hurt her. She only becomes aggressive after you've continued smashing the music box multiple times. In fact, his calls get louder and stronger as time goes on, as if he's getting more confident. He has decided that through smashing the music box, he is saving Six. Without first understanding whether it's the correct choice, how much it hurts her, if there are other less traumatic options, and whether it will even work.
Lastly, because of the timeloop shenanigans, we don't know how long Six has been in the tower, or how much time she has been with the tall man. It's very possible that she has figured out that Mono IS the Tall man, and therefor is the one that imprisoned her. Maybe she thought dropping and killing him would stop the tall man from coming into existence, not realizing it was the catalyst to his creation.
Maybe in her mind, Mono had betrayed her first.
and allllll of this is still ignoring the hunger, which Six seems to begin experiencing towards the end of the game. Maybe she knew that if she pulled Mono up, she would eat him. And decided to let go instead.
Little nightmares is a great game with fantastic atmosphere and world building. Writing in a character betrayal that boils down to "Six is bad" just doesn't seem right, and having fans boil it down so simplistically instead of giving it any critical thought is just weird.
I love this so much, thank you for sharing it!!
I like your theory!
This… is amazinf
Yes, we only see the hero side, we don’t see what happened or what is happening in the villain side… or why?
@@angingis5922 Yes yes that's what Im saying! There is another organization at work, symbolized by the eye, seen multiple times throughout the 2 games. We see the eye all over the Maw in pictures, carved into the wood, and hanging as mirrors. The Eye also appears as scribbles and drawings found in the school, it's in the tower, and lastly, it's the motif on the door trapping the Thin man. There is nothing in the LN series that ever explains the significance of the eye, so why is it such a prominent symbol? What we know is that there are certain places (The maw in LN1 and the tower in LN2) that have the power to control society at large. However, the maw starts to crumble once the Lady is killed, likewise the tower falls apart once the Thin Man is defeated. What we can assume is that these places NEED these powerful children to be at the center for them to work. So.....why? 2 kids (with powers that are not seen in any of the other children in the series) just happen to stumble into places that they themselves have the ability to power? How unlikely is that?
NO MATTER what happens in the story, six was ALWAYS going to end up on the maw, just like mono was ALWAYS going to be trapped in the tower. We know this is a time loop, and we know this has happened over and over again. This antagonistic organization has to make sure that Mono and Six separate and arrive at the right places, to power these points and to keep control of the masses.
This shadowy organization has followed and manipulated every aspect of these children's lives to ensure that they both end up exactly where they need to be. However, their influence and manipulation is so subtle, so quiet, that it is mostly ignored. The eye motif serves as the logo for the LN series. Did the kids ever have a choice? Was anything freewill, or was everything predetermined? Why is Mono constantly drawn to the TVS? Why is six specifically taken to the tower? What is the black shadow that leads Mono to Six in the tower? Six was captured, but she is simply placed in a room, seemingly waiting to be rescued. Why is the answer to her rescue so traumatic? Traumatic enough to drop Mono into the Tower? Who is keeping the Thin man behind that door? Why does Six see the Maw on a newspaper immediately after escaping, right after feeling pain from the hunger? None of this is questioned, because people focus on the wrong thing. And that is probably intentional. Shadowy organizations work best if the common people only argue amongst themselves, right?
Everyone is always arguing about six vs. mono, who was right and who was wrong. In reality, they were children, maybe unthinking and selfish at times, but all they wanted was to make it out alive. There is clearly a true antagonist working in the shadows, but they remain invisible. How can six be painted as a villian? I don't think she ever had a choice to begin with.
Mono got so depressed
He grow up thin and tall
He chased his younger Self
to end the cycle but younger mono defeated old mono,
Now The cycle never ends because of six
