I feel like an important detail in the original MV where when the lyric "administrator" was sung, the screen flashed the kanji for "traitor", implying that the administrator (aka mafuyu's mother) betrayed the "program" (mafuyu) because it was the administrator that caused the bug in the first place Edit: nevermind just fact checked it, the kanji that appeared was just the "haaaahhhhhh....." part after the "administrator" but I still think that the "administraitor" statement oddly fits mafuyu's situation in the game story
i already put this on the cc for extra details!! but you're actually right!! but it's not the kanji, instead the katakana written for 'administrator' here is written as アドミニストレイター and this is not how they normally write the word administrator~ so it does imply 'traitor' as the トレイター is written there as 'to re i ta' = adminis-traitor and not ''to re ta' = adminis-trator :D
Well, this song was commissioned for a Mafuyu event in project sekai by kairiki bear. SPOILERS FOR “Guiding a Lost Child to What Lies Beyond”: In this event, Mafuyu is studying for her mock exams. At the same time she gets an invitation by Mizuki, who wishes the group would hang out more, to go to the amusement park with them on the same day. As she hears this, Mafuyu flashes back to the traumatic experience she had when her and her mother went there, and got lost. When Mafuyu was found, her mother (kind of) guilt tripped her or just made her feel bad about getting lost. Then she comes back to like listening to Mizuki again and explains that she has mock exams. I don’t remember the rest of this event so we’ll, but I think Mafuyu’s mom finds that Mafuyu didn’t throw away her synthesizer that her mom told her too, and is now getting skeptical of her lies. Then, right as the exam comes up, Mafuyu makes the quick choice to skip the exam and see the Nightcord group at the amusement park. The last episode is really just Mafuyu being worried about missing it and then relaxing. But yeah, this song’s themes match what she’s going through lol.
ohh!! thanks a bunch for this because i didn't really read event stories much, and when this was released i was not playing proseka yet, but even then i can't help to think this song is SOOOO mafuyu..... :"D
this song keeps earworming my ear lmao, i just notice that this is very mafuyu like (probably because its proseka commison) idk why proseka commision song is very deep meaning even in their lyric song. pls help my playlist is full of 25n song
I AGREE!! it actually blows my mind how almost or maybe every niigo song has like veeeery deep meaning thats why its so fun to get into each one and discover new things!!
THEORY: Bug is the lead in song that introduces the N25 Kaito despite being released during Kagamine Lens event and featuring him, but let me explain!! You mentioned that in part of the song, the character is saying "nononono i *cant*" which is as you stated, like theyre having a break down AND WHO DO WE ALL KNOW AND LOVE WHOS LIKE THIS EXACT SONG??? MAFUYU. This song explains paranoia in being a goody two shoes from beginning when you are naive to it, to the end when you finally start to breakdown NOW. I like to believe break downs happen in two stages, depending on the person ofc, ive seen both stages of a breakdown in my own family. ANYWAY, the first stage is sadness, breaking down crying. And in the song it(too me at least) even sounds like that. That sadness and you just cant take it anymore. Youve bottled up how youve felt for so long that bottle shattered. The second stage is, anger. Youre body saying "now that the tears are out of the way, lets get revenge." Sadness and anger are two connected emotions, you cry when youre mad, you are sad and can easily be mad (or in a bad mood) right after. So this song is that sadness breakdown, leading into that anger snap. The time where the body finally released negative emotions and experiencing how amazing it felt and is displeased with whoever or at whatever that was the cause. And its clear that Kaito represents anger, and considering the Empty Sekai is made from Mafuyu, we all have concluded each and every Vocaloid in the Empty Sekai represents a new feeling Mafuyu let out of the shell of what was once a bright, happy, smart, child. (Miku is Mafuyus beginning, emotionless. Rin iirc is either peaceful, calm, happy, or content. Meiko is annoyance, Luka is playful, Len is paranoia, and Kaito is anger) Im a EN player so I have no idea how Kaitos event even goes, but i have the feeling Mafuyus mom is going to get slapped in the face with karma 😊😊
i really like your interpretation, kairiki bear makes so much bops! you can do nomad for one of your next videos, it's one of the songs that make me cry the most considering it relates to ena's character
i reaaally want to analyze wotaku (def one of my fav) yet i kept delaying it cause i cant choose which song to start :"D as for nulut, ill put that on my list too~
i'm planning to!! but i want to read more into niigo's story before that as i think it has lots of connections (also for better understanding of the song) ;D
Samsa is quite literally the name of the protagonist in “The metamorphosis” by Franz Kafka. I’m reading the book currently right now (it’s not that long of a read, just haven’t had time to sit down to finish it). Basically, dude turns into a giant bug (the exact german word doesn’t have a direct translation but it’s highlighted that he’s giant and has lots of legs like a cockroach) and his family slowly starts to hate him for it. at the end of the book he kills himself. I suggest you read the book if you can (i’m sure you can find free translations online, but i bought the Susan Bernofsky translation). when i’m done with the book (and hopefully i don’t forget) i’ll come back here and write some thoughts on it.
LOVE THIS LOVE THIS also sorta a mood wuwu,,, But have a request!! Can you do lucky bruto by ado? I just wanna know ab the song meaning a little more than just having my own thoughts with it :'D
The event of this is currently ongoing in ensekai. I hate the song actually because it's so hard 😭 but after watching this i still hate it but much lesser. Omg my mafuyuuuuuu😭😭😭😭

@@udinchwan from the site the translation is hosted. Idk
@@udinchwanfinal thing 2 say: take w a pinch of salt
@@udinchwanalso other ppl said mafumom (or just ms. Asahina) is the administrator

i'm planning to!! but i want to read more into niigo's story before that as i think it has lots of connections (also for better understanding of the song) ;D
@@udinchwan so true the stories def do make the bigger impact. BUT TYSM i’m looking forward to it!
