      La idea estaba antes de ser proyecto escolar, hacerlo proyecto escolar solo fue el "pretexto" aparte así podría trabajar en su idea- la idea de Daría era continuar el proyecto en sus tiempos libres, aún si tenía un trabajo y eso, lo dijo en un "preguntas y respuestas"

  • @captainobvious9526

    I just realized that Voltaire, (Duke’s dad), was looking at his watch the entire time during the service. He was unaffected by his own wife dying, other than slight annoyance that his day was being taken up. He couldn’t even bother to look sad or comfort his own son. No wonder Duke ran off at the end.

    Couple of things I have noticed:
    The video opens 'some decades ago.' I'm unsure whether this accounts for the time within the Vampair series or when the series began, but it seems that Duke is much younger than I originally assumed. Little Duke can both walk in sunlight and has round ears which suggest that he wasn't born a vampire and has yet to become one. It is important to note that he also wears the key around his neck at this time. It might've been a gift from his mother or used to belong to her.
    Duke's father looked at his watch during the service, implying he believed the funeral was taking too long. This implies that he didn't care much for his wife, compared to their son who adored her. Duke's father was the first to leave, after a brief conversation with his peers/extended family. He did not attempt any such conversation with his son, Duke. This also implies he doesn't care for Duke either or openly dislikes him. Alternatively, Duke's father might just not know how to interact with him after Duke's mother's death, when they already had a strained relationship.
    Duke was annoyed with his father for how he couldn't emotionally connect with him and longed for someone to acknowledge his existence. In the Fuck You animatic, Missi mentions that Duke could never achieve his father's approval which seems to align with what happened here.

      That pretty much covers the whole waterfront there, very astute!
      I would also add that he has _no_ problem letting young Duke walk _away from him_ into a quite sizable and forested cemetery, so he's not interested in being even slightly attentive to him.

    • @msk-qp6fn
      @msk-qp6fn 2 роки тому +142

      It actually says "some decades ago." I think that would mean about a century tops since the style of clothing the people are wearing doesn't seem THAT outdated. But yeah that would mean that Duke is younger than we initially assumed.

      There was a bunch of stuff that seemed familiar somehow, like I could imagine his adult self doing it, though most of it took a couple rewatches for me to put a finger on.
      - The way he puts his hands behind his back when he's walking at the end
      - A lot of the facial expressions he makes
      - The slow turn of his head towards his dad
      - The somewhat dramatic body language on the lines "and say my name" and "folks carry on, that's that"

    This episode is really making me think of the ‘You want to be like your father’ line from episode two. Yes, it could be brushed off that it was just something that was used since it was in the original song, but I don’t think that it’s the case considering how much emphasis this episode has on Dukes relationship with his father, and the fact that Daria said that season 2 would focus on The Dukes past. Maybe his father put him through hell and gave him a lot of trauma, and he chose to inflict others with trauma as a way of retaliation, which may explain the motivation behind The Duke’s… unsavory actions in episode 1. Maybe he and Missi will have figures from their past come into their lives again in season 2 and they’ll have to deal with unresolved issues.
    This is pure speculation, but using backstory to impact a character in the future is something that many writers have used in the past, and considering how season 1 ended pretty close-ended, using their backstories to inform new conflict could be a great way to organically introduce new elements in this season.

Sometimes this lone wolf needs to find true happiness in his or her life. I’m saying that to everyone who likes to be alone and who are dying to find people that will love them and change them for the better.

    This is the prequel of his past that he still a human. right!? Why I get the feeling the key had a bigger part in his past. It's sad to loss a mother and he just so young, his father is not that close than his mother. The animation get even more improve especially the style really amazing 😻👌💞

    Did anyone else notice that Duke's father's outline is purple? Isn't it interesting that Duke's father is outlined in purple just like Missi in her vampire form? I wonder what that means thematically.
    Also, 0:18 we get to see Duke wearing the key of his castle on his neck. This makes me think that perhaps the castle doesn't belong to his father but rather his mother, which could mean that Duke's father married Duke's mother's family.

    I think Human Nature will be one of the songs in this season. Given the fact that it seems to start out with a young duke, with both mommy and daddy issues. It will probably be used when dealing with missi in an attempt for duke to open up. Since the song says things like " I hear my mother's words coming through." "My whole life I've relied on logic, let's give this thing a try." And something about listening to his father. Someone else could probably elaborate much more on it then I could, but still I have a strong feeling about it

    Okay either you're the greatest planner in the world or got very lucky. Despite the music for each one being different stories they fit so well. From the whole prostitute one with the Duke sleeping with Missis sister, to the line about the Duke not getting his farthers approval, and then there's this song and animated that plays that so well. But I'm curious to see how The Duke became a vampire, whether he does it for revenge on his father, as a cost to try and bring back his mother (which would be a great way to pull into the whole "You stabbed my mother" Line from season 1 finale where we find out that The Dukes mom is living in some way but not in a physical form, might also explain his connection to the house). Even the whole Land of the Dead episode and later them talking about his dog, like it all falls so nicely into place.
