  • @spirituscorvus3980

    Just a theory but I think this song implies a purgatory. In lyrics, the maze have "Three-thousand entrance and Forty-nine exit". In buddhism, 3000world(三千世界) means "the whole world". And when someone dead, their soul stay 49 days and leave this life in (also) buddhism. 49 also reference "a pain of death(死苦)" in japan. So, the maze is something between life and death. Aand some lyrics represent girl's death(We can see a girl lying on the pool of blood too!)
    In this theory, this song is about a girl dead, go to maze (purgatory I guess) and searching for exit of this world.
    (I'm not good at english so if some words are strange, i'm very sorry about thatTT
    Also, this song is amazingly great! Thank you for write n sing this epic song kikuo and hanatan and thanks Otori san for made this vedio!!)

      I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought that this song is kinda like purgatory.
      It also seems to go together with O Light. It doesn't seem like the person in the videos are the same but if they are than it feels like O Light it a prequel, let's say the girls death and her actually *going to* purgatory while this song is her *in* purgatory.
      But the theme is very similar.

      Something that feels fitting to me:
      1:08 "The sadness of coming upon a dead end; the surprise when the bottom gives way; the suffocation."
      "The sadness of coming upon a dead end" would be the reason for suicide, the dead end in life.
      "the surprise when the bottom gives way" you don't hang yourself every day so I guess how it is must be surprising
      "the suffocation." well..yeah.
      Of course I'm just a random dude who likes this music and looked at this line after reading the theories about suicide in the comments, so take this with a grain of salt.

  • @voredaddy
    @voredaddy 4 роки тому +403

    So I think that she was in an accident that put her in a coma but then died and now she’s just stuck in purgatory. There’s one line where she says something like I’d rather be stuck like this rather than be stuck in a world where I can’t move which also makes me think that she could’ve also been paralyzed rather than be in a coma. It’s not really important but I thought it was an interesting line.

      Wait but this theory comes to something even more sad, unless she was paralyzed because of an accident and instead she was already paralyzed that means someone either like pushed into the road or something, because she can't walk or move.

    the song reminds me of the feeling when you are trapped and alone in a bad situation, especially as a child, and use your imagination to escape from the real world.
    often times, children who have stressful home lives will develop a kind of maladaptive daydreaming, where they daydream to escape from their struggles in the world, and dissapearing into this world of "mazes". being in their head so often usually hinders their development especially socially. I believe this song is about someone who used imaginative worlds to cope and now realizes that they cannot escape their made-up worlds and that all they are and ever will be is fake. but whenever they try to interact with the real world they don't know how to behave regularly and are ostracized and bullied for their poor communication skills...
    probably not, though.

    I am really curious how the video was made! *o*
    I'm certain 3D models were used, and assume the textures were edited in after rendering the raw video, but the wobbly lines have me stumped. Is that some crazy filter, or did someone have to go in and trace every outline several times? (Super new to video editing, haha.)

    • @MyShyHeart
      @MyShyHeart 7 років тому +229

      I wanted to know too! It's a really cool effect. I think there's a way of rendering those lines with a 3D program, but they could have been added afterwards with an editing program...I guess the best thing we could do is ask the artist how they did it, but I don't know if they understand English.

      @R0MUl0 6 років тому +116

      Those are only opinions I'm not the one how did it. It may have some post edition but I'm pretty sure it is 100% 3D engine result, including textures. You can really get all sort of results with shader filters, by what I can see all in this animation can be somewhat achieved through special render engines like freestyle, the jagged line is probably obtained with some noise transformation over vertex, and finalization with filters and a little of chromatic aberration.

    • @sifeeyyaboi4203
      @sifeeyyaboi4203 4 роки тому +17

      Im not sure how it was done here, but most animators achieve that effect by drawing the frame multiple times, and having it repeat really fast. Because not every sketch is going to be exactly the same, it gives the effect of wobbling lines.

    I’d rather walk around in a hollow world than be in a world where I can’t move.

    I think this song is about depression. She’s trying to go to the horizon, but ends up getting stuck in an infinite gray maze (which is what life feels like for me when my depression is bad).
    In the video, the character looks exhausted as well. She says that she is ascending then descending, again and again, which I think represents trudging through the days.
    The lyric “it’s miserable but there’s a goal somewhere” also makes me think that it’s about depression.
    She even tries to search for a maze (continue on with her day) when she’s “losing her way” aka considering suicide.

    • @gripe5760
      @gripe5760 2 роки тому +26

      Yeah, and sometimes she seem to like beeing in the maze or it's just indifferent about it. That seems like self sabotage to me.
      Also, as a person that has many ups and downs, I can really relate to this girl. I swear I could explain all this lyrics and why the song is about depression but my english it's just not very good. :(

      When I saw the girls expression and how the world seemed empty and gray to her, and hard to get out of the maze, I also felt that the song may represent how the people with depression live their day to day feeling lost and without a sense of direction of where their life are going to go from now on :)

    For those who don't watch on a bigger and higher res screen...There's so much detail in the video. Or at least more than I ever thought. The lines don't stay and define things, they dance around and wiggle. Colors bleed out of shapes, and some details that seemed so precise on mobile...are just blotches of color on a bigger screen. Just a cool thing I've noticed, bad upbringings make you see these things and cherish them.

And there's that honk thing that happens every now and then.

    I know it's not entirely correct, but I interpreted this the maze as the monotony of life, specifically in regards to school and work. The constant ascending and descending stairways without actually anywhere in life, feeling trapped within concrete grey walls, exhausting yourself for hours and slowly dying, only to wake up the next morning and do it all over again.

    I was thinking a bit about this song, what I feel like it means
    The line “I ascend, then descend, descend, descend, and keep on descending some more.” Makes me think of how when one gets to the state of where they feel like they’re getting better and suddenly everything just spirals downwards, the line “this strange horizon is just like how it was back when I was alive” is like how when you’re in a deep depression you feel like everything is ‘repetitive’ or that nothing changes if that makes sense? And how it goes to “let’s suffer within this infinite maze” as in being stuck/lost, feeling as if you’ll be in that mindset forever, the next line being “the sadness of coming upon a dead end; the surprise when the bottom gives way; the suffocation” would be as giving up (perhaps su!c!de). On the line “as I plod along, avoiding the odorless and colorless concrete slabs” it also ties a connection to depression in how when you’re in that deep depression, you feel as if you can’t feel anything, youre deprived of your senses/life being drained of color. “The floor gave way again, I woke up, out of breath” makes me think of a failed attempt at su!c!de. Anyways, I’m not going to do a whole analysis on this as I’m writing this at 1:14 am, but if you’d like to hear more about my ‘theory’ just comment :D

    i know someone commented about this song being about depression. but i personally feel like it's about having an unhealthy attachment style and how it's very hard to keep relationships. it's also hard to get into a healthy attachment style, like a maze. and like how when ur not in a relationship, u crave it, but end up getting stuck in the "maze" again. honestly idk what im saying lmao

    i think this song is about someone with depression, the "maze" is the sadness, "ascending, then descending" the girls mental state is getting better, them worse again, eventually, the realizes that she's been stuck in sadness and depression for so long that she cant exist in the world, and that shed rather be stuck in a hollow world, or, depression, then in a world where she cant move, or, cant fit in, but she knows that if she gives into the depression, she'll probably end up killing herself, so she pulls a homura and continues to fight, she continues so aimlessly wander through the maze, but eventually she "falls through the floor again", or, her mental state tanks, and she gives up, and guves in to despair, and hsngs herself

    I feel like the girl, trying to escape the maze doesn’t know what she is. Trying to figure out what she is right now. Then she finds out she’s dead, which she doesn’t want to be (??). So she tries to avoid it by saying “let’s find a maze”. But now she’s stuck on the information that she’s dead (where the girl keeps on passing by the girl in the pile of blood). Just my theory, though!
