In very little nightmares, Six never wears the yellow raincoat, it is floating away in the water so it presumably washes ashore in the pale city where Six later finds it
If everything goes in a circle. Wouldn't it be both then? Prequel and Sequel, because a circle has no end and no beginning. As you said it is or it seems to be a loop.
There is a beginning for this loop because the very first six and the very first mono never had a thin man so how would the loop start you say? Well the flesh and eye man that chases you at the end of the game on little nightmare 2 started the loop as he can change peoples looks and a lot of other things, he even made a illusion of the tv station because he is the tv station but it doesn’t seem like it.
If there is a discussion comming up then I don't mind if someone makes a new direct post about thories below the vid. I don't understand much of it and haven't played any of the "litte nightmares"-games. I know the post up there it's not a well thought out idea on my part.
I love the theory, and all the work you do man! Buuuuuut, there are things that don't make sense with the current set of theories are going around, so I thought I'd try my hand at disputing them and/or putting some doubt on them, as well as some of my own interpretations and theories. 1. Mono/Thin Man: It's indisputable that mono becomes thin man, so the question that should be asked is, is Thin Man mono? Many have stated that thin man is trying to save mono from six, but this doesn't make sense at all. Because if that was his goal, then he already achieved that when he captured six. But instead of killing her he captures her, giving Mono reason to confront and defeat him, leading to him being betrayed by six. So that theory makes no sense. So then, who is Thin Man? Is he actually mono? Or is he like the distorted six, a monster created by the signal monster/dimension/thing. I'm thinking the latter, to be honest. A monster created from the hate and fear of a child, to be used as a puppet by an abomination. 2. Is Thin Man actually trapped, waiting to be released by mono? A weird question to ask for some, but I believe the answer is no, he is not and the answer is simple. In the 2nd comic released before the game came out, Thin Man himself captures the child in the comic. Now, how could this be, if he was imprisoned? Well, he never was, and while I doubt he captured all the children that turned into glitched remains, considering the placement of some of the others it's pretty hinted that Thin Man paid them a personal visit. So then, why is it that Thin Man only pays us a visit when mono opens the door? Again, it's simple. Had six not stopped mono the first and second time he accessed the t.v, he would be coming after us far sooner. The reason he comes after us when he does is because we open the door to the signal, which draws the attention of the thin man. It's nothing more than that. An accident, though chances are that even if six had stopped us the third time, he would have noticed us as we drew closer. 3. Prequel or Sequel? This one has been throwing people for a loop, and honestly, there are valid arguments for both. I, however, subscribe to it being a sequel, and here's why. When we find distorted six, she’s inside a children's room. Now, assuming that the signal tailored the room to make six as docile and cooperative as possible, the music box being the key item for this, then this room was made for six specifically. If this is true, then why is the suitcase that we see six wake up in LN1 in the room? It makes no sense for it to be there unless six would take comfort in it, and since she spent gods only knows how long using it as a home in LN1, it probably would be a source of comfort, or protection, for her. Not only that, but the context of LN1 makes no sense from this point of view. In LN1, six has been down in the deepest parts of the maw for a while, and her goal is obvious. Escape. Which makes no sense if she was going there to eat and/or kill the lady. Why would she have the option of hugging the gnomes if she planned on eating them? Why would wander to the deepest darkest parts of the maw? Nothing about LN1 makes sense if we're going there from LN2. As for the raincoat… I'm waiting for the DLC before I start prodding that. As for the secret ending and the picture of the maw, I think it's trying to tell us where we are going to next, or back to in this case. 4. If this is a sequel, then why doesn't six have her powers? The signal tower is our culprit here. It's stated quite often (and shown) that the signal warps reality itself, so it's safe to say that it trumps anything six gained from the lady. Now, why isn't six hungry at all throughout the game? This is a theory of mine, nothing concrete, but it goes like this; When six ate the lady, followed by everything else that stood in her way, she became full, or at least appeased, for awhile. In fact, she probably stuffed herself so much that only at the end of LN2 did she feel the need to feast again (or maybe she did some scrounging of screen), and now that the signal has been disrupted for the time being (Where definitely not done with it by a long shot), she can once again satiate her appetite. Such is her curse. 5. Now, what about shadow six? One option to think about is that shadow six is directly linked to her power. Not the lady's power, but hers. Just as mono had his counterpart in the thin man, six probably had hers in the lady, her powers more specifically. Does that make them the same? Hard to say. I don't believe so personally, but nothing says otherwise at the moment so meh. And if shadow six is tied to her powers, then she wouldn't appear while the signal is active. So what's up with glitched six then? Hard to say honestly. We know that the glitched kids we find are shadows left behind from before they were taken, so it's possible that glitched six is what remains of her compassion and/or innocence that she gained during the course of LN2, as we see it trying to lead mono like she had been doing all throughout the game. We've seen six act the way the glitch does once in the game, when or if you stop to play in the playground. That would make six’s betrayal make far more sense if her soul had become fragmented. I might update if anything catches my attention, but for now I hope I've given you who actually read this mess something to think about. And if you disagree, then let me know and why. Talking theory is always fun after all :D
I think it works as both a prequel and a sequel if we go by the loop. For example, the game ends with Six going to the Maw but she goes onto become the lady, until she gets killed by past Six and the cycle starts all over again. The reason the Lady created the Maw according to the official description "Amidst the chaos of the world outside, The Maw is the only place that makes sense." meaning the influence from Pale City probably interferes with her powers. The Six we encounter at the beginning may have lost her memories and in turn her powers after leaving the Maw the closer she got to the city. But as we see her go from meek and fearful, to more aggressive and vengeful, as the game progresses, that's her real personality slowly coming back. Once the thin man is defeated, Six regains her powers and memories back, and betrays Mono upon recognizing him as the Thin man responsible for interfering with her memories and abilities. Six leaves for the Maw to become the lady and the cycle starts all over again. The Lady and six also have a sort of fixation on music, the lady has a music box on her residence and is constantly humming the same tune, which Six hums at the end of the game. Either way I think the eye is definitely at fault and its some sort of eldritch abomination keeping itself in power by turning the only two kids with powers strong enough to defeat it, turned against each other in a time loop where only ruin awaits them each time
Theory: Six is trying to stop the cycle by stopping Mono from releasing the thin man, so she wont get captured and betray mono. Notice how many times she pulled him out of the T.V? She tried pulling him out but mono's curiosity led him to releasing the thin man and let the cycle repeat again. Six gets captured, Mono saves Six, Six betrays Mono, Mono becomes thin man. She goes to the maw With the curse of uncontrollable hunger Eats the lady and becomes her Thennn repeat
Mono's face is visible with some of the additional hats so if you're implying she dropped him because she recognized him as the thin man's host I don't think that's the case. If you pay attention to what six is doing in some segments you'll notice she's not exactly kindhearted and forgiving. And when Mono breaks her music box and she returns to normal you can tell from her body language she's glaring at him. It's subtle but I think that's when she puts him on her black list.
@@chicken0w044 There is no reason to assume that. The hats serve no useful purpose for that to fall under the gameplay mechanic explanation. If that was the case I think the devs would emphasize that by not including any hats that don't cover his face if it was important for his identity to remain hidden until the end.
@@Demokaze That's what i am saying, since the hats are important story wise, why Fix on a detail like covering his face? it doesnt affect the story in any way
Hmm, this is interesting. Perhaps six knew that in order to retain the cycle, she had to drop mono, because its like the grandfather paradox, if she didn't drop mono, the tall man wouldn't exist and therefor she wouldn't be in that situation. edit: And so maybe, six has tried saving mono, but each time she gets sent back to the hunters room. This would mean that those tallies on the wall aren't days, they're different times she has been there
@@decad3428 I know same haha, it just feels like there’s so much more that would’ve happened but, didn’t Then again there might be a dlc, but nothing known yet
This a long comment please excuse for that, After watching all the videos, I think very little nightmare is the start and six is one of the failed product from the nest. At the end of very little nightmare we see six in a white one piece. And we see the yellow jacket floating in the drainage Canal, and we can see that six used a raft to escape. And in little nightmare 2, we see six in same white one piece, so I think after she used the raft, she came to forest and was caught by the hunter, from this we can see that nest is on mountain and forest where hunter lives is below it. After mono saves her, he gives her the yellow jacket and escapes. And in the ending we can see that six is hungry and shadow six shows her the next location to go to. Which is where little nightmare 1 comes into play. The pretender is the boss of the nest and is responsible for growing manager candidates for the eye from children that the pretender kidnapped. In very little nightmare it is shown that the pretender can vanish people leaving only their clothes. And little nightmare 2 we see some places in the city that only have clothes but not people. The pretender father is shown hanging in little nightmare 2, it can be assumed that, he father manages the tv’s by sitting on the chair to manipulate the people. But choose to commit suicide because He cannot continue working for the eye. At end of little nightmare 2 mono uses the same chair, as he has no other choice but to use it. In the little nightmare 2 it is also shown that when six is pulled into the tv and mono goes into to tv to save her, we can see that six is turned into a monster, I think that is the reason why the nest thinks six is a failed product. At the end of little nightmare mono kills the masked woman and unleashed her powers (the monster within her ) which to like gluttony. Six is always hungry and eats everything. The reason six betrayed mono is when she was pulled into the tv, the monster within her already started breaking out of her. And she is not herself, that is why in little nightmare we can see that six does not save or try to save anyone. But in very little nightmare and little nightmare 2 she tries to save the protagonist. I think the music box that mono breaks in little nightmare 2 is the point that lets six keep her sanity, but as mono breaks it, the monster in six also breaks of out six control. And also nest should be create children who have different powers, like turning children into noms, vanishing people, or that teacher that can give life to the children puppets. etc. And I also this ln2 might not be a loop, but in the tv world there is no timeline, there is not past, present or future. And the also I think the reason the thinman tried to capture six is because he know that six is a monster, and thinman tried to capture mono as he was trying to save himself from her. Also it might be mono is also from nest and his power to teleport through tv’s I mean if I am not wrong we do have a scene in very little nightmare where in a tv room we have bunch of kids dolls with one empty sit. If am not wrong. So mono might have teleport from nest to the forest below it. And also the reason why six dreams of the lady in mask might be the lady in the mask is from the nest and he works on children to have them awaken powers in them them. And she might have turn a few kids into goems. So my theory no loop, but are in chronological order of very little nightmare, little nightmare 2, little nightmare.
The timeloop theory really falls short. Mono’s consciousness is singular, which means that if he is seeing himself, he is still himself, meaning that their are two of himself. There’s no focal point to work with. The only indication anyone gives for their being a time loop is six’s hunger, and the fact that mono become the new thin man. Yet what if the thin man is just a form? Like a type of office or title that automatically changes anyone captured into that thin man? Also, what if six satisfied her hunger during that last killing of all the guests, doesn’t have the hunger, and only has to periodically feed similar to the geisha? Just some thought to consider.
I think that Six dropped Mono as she was absorbing his powers. When she had enough, she was able to travel through the TV. She could never do this through the game until the end where she held Mono. Idk, that’s my theory.
@@viciousvize6363 no she can’t and if there is a chance she can the video even said She absorbed The lady’s powers by eating her if u actually listen And see It shows no were near mono getting aten by six and if u actually do ur research you could look up her ability’s and it shows nothing About Absorbtion
What’s weird is that we saw the suitcase she woke up in when she was in the maw, in the final boss fight. The same suitcase is in the room her monstrous form was in, it could mean that this indeed a sequel
Im starting to think that... in the same vein as Inside or Limbo, Little Nightmares might be one of those stories that are more abstract than linear. What proto Six, Six, the Runaway, Mono - what they experience in their respective games are I guess fragmented pieces of a puzzle that dont need to stick together necessarily.
When six gets kidnapped by the Thin man, you can see that Mono doesn't try to help her. She may be angry that He didn't try to save her while she had her hand out.
This doesn’t completely make sense tho. There is also the things that happen in the Little nightmares comic app. Mono was already in the forest and saw six as she was kidnapped by the hunter.
My theory: Six is not evil, She is not in control of herself that's why she seems evil, she really does care for mono, she lost part of her soul (shadow six) and has an evil force inside of her body ever since the beginning of little nightmare 1. That's why she seems to have split personality. Six still has what remains of her soul and is cursed by the eye. Remember her music box has the eye sign, the music box is the reason of her curse. I cant believe how some missed the fact that six rescued and pulled mono from the tv screen multiple times ,and blame her for something she didn't even do like letting go of mono at the end. Six might be possessed by a dark entity, The evil was in her ever since the beginning of little nightmare 1, the evil spirit is what causing her stomach to growl, its inside of her. Like some sort of spirit possession she is not in total control of her body. That's why its hard to understand six cause sometimes she is nice at times and at other times evil as if she has has two distinctive personalities. Mono knew that he had to destroy the music box to end this curse. People need to ask themselves Why would six drop mono when she is the one who pulled him from the TV like 3 times. If she wanted to get rid of him and imprison him with the Eye she could have done it before. This doesn't add up that's why I know for sure the real six would not let go of mono. In addition to that its not normal for a kid(even in little nightmares world) to eat a dead rat, a kid, and a women. its not six who did it, its the evil force inside of her forcing her to do it. The stomach growling is a sign that the evil is taking control of her, another sign remember the shadow six appearing before she ate the run away kid. Remember the secret ending the same stomach growling sound and shadow appeared after she dropped mono.
I also thought about that , and noticed that mono which is the thin man himself is tryng to separate shadow six from her body , thats why the thin man captured her in order to save her from the evil shadow six but the little mono had no idea and still try to get six out on the tv transmission realm , and i think the thin man told six that little mono is the thin man himself when mono and six running for their escape from the realm of tv transmission that where mono jump and six holds heS Hand , six knew that shell be reunited with her Shadow the evil entity if she try to bring mono out with her she might lose control of her body cus shadow six will possess six's body and the evil will take control of her body and eat what living she sees cus the evils hunger feeds on a living , the reason why she chose to drop mono and left him behind because She is scared that mono will be eatin alive by her spirit's hunger. Thats my own theory tho
I think I’ve cracked this. After the events of very little nightmares, six gets on the raft and takes the raincoat travelling to the pale city. Here she looses her raincoat and is taken to the maw. The events of little nightmares 1 happens and six absorbs the ladies powers, (the power to drain the power out of things). She finds herself escaping and when she finds the hunter she hides downstairs boarding herself in. Her safe space. Mono comes and mono takes her from that safe space and they escape together. Six regains her raincoat and little nightmares 2 happens. However when six turns into monster six, the signal tower uses the music box to keep her there as it knows that the music box reminds her of when she was safe in the room. She felt safe. At least that was until mono breaks the music box and takes her out of this safe place once again. The bridge scene can be explained like this: six can’t travel through TVs as shown in the scene when she’s trapped and mono tries to pull her out, and the exit to the signal tower looks a lot like a tv. She didn’t go back to mono because she cares about him, she went back so she could use the power of the lady and absorb some on monos power. By doing this she can escape and she drops him when she’s had enough (this also explains why the thin man is weaker and is killed by mono as he’s had some of his power absorbed by six.) And in the secret cutscene at the end with six, she gets hungry and looks at the maw. The one place filled with food without an owner. That empty slot that could be taken by six, six grows into the lady and destroys every mirror in the house to stop younger six killing her. However this doesn’t work and when she realises its all going to happen again she doesn’t fight knowing that this needs to happen letting younger six kill her. The only hole in this is how six got from the maw to the hunters house but overall I think this fills a couple plot holes. I don’t like it when people say six is evil. Six is a survivor. She does everything to survive. She kept mono around so she can survive. She killed mono so she can survive.
@@checkyourwall no he is trying to capture six so she can’t betray mono and drop him in the void and he is trying to get his past self not to kill him but to keep him away from six so six can turn to the monster and I’m guessing die
The senior narrative designer Dave Mervik for little nightmares 2 told Polygon that this is a true “sequel”. He said that it’s “following up after the events of Six escaping the Maw and she joins Mono on a journey to the signal tower”.
In addition, that would contradict what the devs have already said: “I cannot reveal too much about that without spoiling the story. So it’s a bit of a tricky question to answer. What I can say is if you play only Little Nightmares 2 straight through, you might not get all the answers you want. But if you try to dig more you might be able to get something that will connect the two and then make a link that you’re looking for.” It's clear that they're talking about the secret ending where Shadow Six pushes Six to go to the Maw to satisfy her hunger, which can go both ways of being just a prequel where Six is now aboard the Maw or being both a sequel and prequel where Six eventually grows up to be the Geisha lady there thanks to the powers she got from eating her future self... which would mean she eventually gets eaten by her past self as well. But I don't see any evidence supporting it's just a sequel. People saying that are just parroting the wrong stuff over and over.
@@lostsouls7186 The writer got it wrong. They said the dev told Polygon that but if you look at the polygon article linked, there's nothing like that said. They just assumed it was the chronological sequel. Show me something that directly says the devs have said it takes place after. Because all they've said so far is that they don't want to answer that just yet. That paragraph I've sent before is proof of that.
@@BlappetureCO They outright mention that it’s a sequel many times in the article and the LN Twitter page even made a post about a score the got saying it’s a “true sequel”.
What if that girl is not six. Instead it is kid plased to replay monos tragic story. Every time when kid mono is brought back new kid is kidnapted by the hunter. Meaby it is because six thanks to her powers was able to escape from loop after the first time. every other kid tries to became new six but fails thanks to hunger. All the characters leaves in their own nightmares
Mono saw the door which had the thin man behind at the beginning of little nightmares 2, six saw the lady of the maw at the beginning of little nightmares 1 Mono defeated the thin man at the end, six did the same and defeated the lady Mono got the powers of the thin man, six got the power of the lady My conclusion It is very possible Six is the lady of the maw, and mono is the Thin man. Both were innocent children that have been turned evil by this dark world which is controlled by the Eye.. The reason why six dropped mono is because she though it was the right decision for him to stay inside if he had got out mono would lose his powers and won't be able to create time loops and teleport through time and space. Six wants to repeat the cycle to fix what went wrong
I adore Little Nightmares universe in general and consider Six best of characters and do hope we will play as her again. But trying to fill up full context of this lore makes my head get burned, chopped up, exploded and forced to listen mooing of cows for eternity!!!
It's pretty obvious that it's a prequel, the reason she went to the Maw was to gain the ladys power so that she can recombine her soul that the Thin Man separated when he took her and stop her insatiable hunger.
It could be that the signal tower may need a "host" to help it take the live energy it needs to help it stay in the world and that's were Mono comes in. That he is the "right host" for the signal tower.
I think its symbolic because in a cruel world one act of kindness will break the cycle. Example if 6 never betrays mono he wouldn't become the thin man. And if the thin man would forgive 6 the signal tower wouldnt collapse. So its not just 6 betraying mono that makes the circle its all of it.
What if it goes little nightmare 2 (where she first find the rain coat), very little nightmares (she losses the rain coat to seven and gets it back in the end), and then little nightmares where she keeps the rain coat on through the whole thing. This would also support the ending of little nightmares 1of the thin man (AKA the eye scene). During this part of the game six has to hid from the eye or shell get evaporated. And the ending credits might be the plot of little nightmares 3 where mono finally gets back at six
Six is selfish a narcissist : Does not release locked kids, kills and the eat lost kid who helped her and was turned into gnome by the lady . Betrayed Mono who saved multiple times .
All I know is that the game can only work as a sequel simply because the creators said it was, so the ending confused me. Is six going back to the maw? Does her evil transmission now have free will?
They said it’s a sequel but specifically said they wouldn’t confirm when it takes place in the timeline (source: www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-08-29-little-nightmares-2-interview ) Sequel can just mean the second thing to come out after the first thing in the same universe, no necessarily being next in the timeline. :)
what about the character comic of mono and six :- mono who is in a burning room with many other kids. Than the sprinklers starts and sets off the fire after a long hand starts to take kids away while mono watches it happen and tries to run away and hides in a broken tv which starts and probably teleport due to his ability into the forest. six:- with out her rain coat running from the hunter tricks him by throwing a stone and from a way under the tree she passes through a hole and at the end after getting out of the hole she sees mono and after that the hunter catches her. and i think because of it that its not a loop but second part is the prequel of the first though i can be wrong.
You missed a big theory. At the end when six drops mono is the only time we see him without his hat. Did six drop him because she saw his face and recognized him as the thin man? Seems like she was a pawn in this not realizing she was key to creating the thin man.
I think she dropped him because after getting captured by the thin man, she realized the connection between the two, she saw who he really was. Maybe that why when mono freed her from being monster, she stared at him, a strange odd stare
Another thing that not so many people noticed: - In little nightmares 1 when u play against the Janitor there is a part were you have to turn on a TV and starts playing and strange music. - This strange music appears in little nightmares 2 as well you can check it when using a TV on LN2 turning it off and on till you find the music. * That means that Mono, while he is getting older, in all that time he is watching Six doing her things till he can get his revenge AND also shows the existence of a portal that connects Pale city and the Maw. ALSO!!! There's a room (in episode 4) with a portraid of the Lady and frames that show the Maw and the Guests. But it seems like a Man's room so.. It's the room of the Lady husband or maybe another next character¿? Also there's a figure like in LN1 the one's u have to break.
Six could have seen the resemblance of Mono and the thin man and dropped him to prevent the cycle from repeating and Mono could have turned into the thin man because of Sixes betrayal.
What if Little nightmares 1 happens in the middle of Little nightmares 2? When Six was taken into the tv! Also when she is a big monster..maybe that was the climax of her powers acquired in the end of first part Just my theory
You guys the rain coat comes from 6 past self. The time line is on loop meaning 6 future self is trying to persuade her present self into doing something different.
I know you didn't see my comment on your VLN story explain but thank you for answering my question and explaining the timeline (i hope you at least notice this comment)
What you suggested in regards to Six is plausible. I think she could have also been angry after he destroyed her music box and was getting revenge. The timeline definitely seems to be weird, though, like not from point A to point B.
I was thinking maybe Six dropped Mono because it was the first time Six saw Mono's face. Also, Six kept pulling Mono away from the tv because maybe Six saw the thin man before and that is why she dropped Mono when Six saw Mono's face. Six was like "damn, so your Thin Man after all"
What if Six was in the school of the city and Very Little Nightmare was her traveling into the hunter's cabine ? That will explain why there is a rope placed in front of the school in a way of escape and why we find the yellow coat of Six on the land of the school. That will explain also why Six want to go to the right and not to the left for escape, she already has go to the left before and failed. Well that's just a theory you may want to look on your free time ^^. Thanks for the video btw, I like how you give elements of your theory.
What if there’s two alternate universe the very little nightmares where she escapes the nest and goes to the maw and kills the lady and then the little nightmares two where mono and six meets by chance goes to tower then mono gets betrayed then six steals some of his powers then escapes through the tv then she spots the poster for the maw and heads to it through the ferryman or whatever his name is and reaches the maw and kills the lady
Just a small theory the eye is an alien mass that crashed into the signal tower , but on impact it made everyone evaporate whoever who was not watching the television, then proceeded to take the minds of the viewers through the signal tower, but the signal would only go so far and create a loop inside it, six however got out and her shadow version is now with her and this is the beginning of her going to the maw. This game is a prequel not a sequel.
There are new Little Nightmares comics out which follow Six, Mono and few other kids in various areas of the second game. One even includes Six encountering the Hunter.
7:32 The Runaway Kid doesn't become The Granny though, he becomes the Nome that Six eats in LN1. So that being a theory about them becoming the things they kill doesn't make sense entirely.
Theory: Mono is the next Thin Man and killed the previous one. Therefore, Mono Thin Man is still alive and will hunt Six in LN3 (he found her at the end of LN1).
You see the suitcase that she wakes up in Little Nightmares in the finale battle of Little Nightmares 2. She also appears to come violent after being taken by the school children. Waiting for Mono in the Hospital shes seen breaking fingers of a prosthetic arm. There is also the question as to how she is able to pull Mono from the TV and why she doesn't want him to open the door. Note when the door is opened six looks scared as if to say What have you done. She also clearly tries getting out of the TV but it fails. Then when Mono tries to save six in the TV world one of the first things he does is break through a broken door just like the start of the game. We find Six a giant monster version of herself obsessed with the music box and after its gone she comes back. My theory is that Six is in fact The Ladies daughter and there is a connection to her and the Hunter. Six was sent there and not until Mono sets her free does she go from a weak child to the tainted fearless girl driven by revenge. To destroy the woman that made her go through it all in the first place.
Six is the daughter of the lady, who used to be good, until the signal tower changed and twisted everyone. She left the maw to take down the tower, but got caught. At the end six saw mono without a mask on and saw he was the thin man and that she couldn't save him. After her time in the tower she knew there was no saving the lady, but a chance to save mono from his fate. She then travels to the maw to kill the lady and take her power. With witch she seeks to destroy the tower and end the loop.
I think six drops Mono at the end because its the first time she see's his face after he takes the bag off to fight the thin man, and she recognises that they are the same person
I don't think that this is a cycle. And I think that the actual timeline is like that. - Very little nightmares - little nightmares 2 - The comics - little nightmares 1. Let me explain it. In very little nightmares Six goes away from the fly house( I don't know how this location is named officially) without taking the jacket( or what it is). The jacket goes to the pale city by the sea. In the pale city a kid finds it and wears for a while. Than the kid is taken by the thin man and without the jacket like other people in little nightmares 2. Six finds it and wears. In the end of the second part of the franchise she decides to go to the Maw( I am sorry I don't know its right name, but in Russian it is called " Чрево(Chrevo"). She doesn't know how and because of this stays for a while the city. She meets other kids, hangs out with them( for some reasons, maybe because it is more possibly to survive if you aren't alone). Then the man who takes kids to the Chrevo appears and takes Six( others maybe could escape him). And then Six wakes up in the Chrevo.( As you can guess I am Russian. So my English might be not very good. But I hope that you understand what I want to stay.)
The streets being full of guests could be because for the moment the signal tower is down and the TVs don't hold their same power. Six's memory loss could be a gradual side effect from her brief monstafacation. If Six went from the nest washing up near the forest then got captured by the puppet hunter under orders from the thin man who does not want a paradox (explaining six's being kept alive by the hunter, the bullies and the doctor) he could have as you said set every detail of the adventure as a trap from memory playing director and unwitting star (he had a lot of time to stew over the events of LN2 in that chair). So the thin man wanted revenge but not in a way that cause him to cease to exist. As Mono and Six continue to thwart the thin man he gets more and more desperate being so close and so far from his revenge (making Six suffer as the monster he sees her as forever) he makes a risky move thinking he has the benefit of knowing how the events played out last time but underestimates Mono and pays for it. So Six's adventure goes: the nest> the forest> captured> LN2> spat out secret ending in pale city> comic: the pale city (free of the signal towers control)> plagued by the hollow static remnant of being phased into a monster(shadow six) six goes with the Ferryman to the Maw but escapes into the ducts suffering another bout of memory loss where because Six is not complete her hunger has become attuned to the lady's power(being the strongest thing nearby) before waking up in LN. The reason Six is the only child in the series (the girl in the yellow raincoat, Mono, Bread girl, Runaway Kid, the nomes) that doesn't bother to help others when the opportunity arises is because six is hollowed emotionally there is nothing left of Six but hunger no longer capable of caring as the hunger to fill the growing void of being something that shouldn't exist grows Six must consume more to sustain herself (and where can you get your fill? the Maw). Mono is doomed to an endless rerun of his life in a hell-loop(LN2) and Six is doomed to fade or feed.
I think that showing the raincoat at the end of VLN was just to show the girl was dead (evaporated by Pretender's power). How it got to where Six and Mono find it... who knows? :D
I already wrote that I think that is not a cycle thing. But I want to detail a little bit. Choosing my theory, somebody can ask a question. What about the thin man and Mono? I think that the thin man and Mono aren't the same person. Yes, they have the same powers and the same looks( i mean the same clothes), But are that worthy evidences? We don't have much information about how kids get their powers. I have a hypothesis about that. Maybe, the get powers when they expierence a strong fear. At this moment every kid gets a power related with feelings, thoughts at the moment( Six gets hunger because she felt anger at the moment when her last thing that she carried about was broken, Mono got his power when he was in a TV, maybe at this moment he wanted to teleport somewhere). According to this hypothesis, come kids might have the same powers because similar situations and thoughts,feelings they have expeirenced. Than it does make sense if the thin man and Mono are not the same person. Speaking about the clothes, maybe its a special clothes for a who in the tower. Mono had different clothe when he was younger but with growing he got the clothes from the tower. it offered it for him, inviting to be the next.
I have a question regarding the Thin Man time loop theory. Look closely at the chair and the door in a room with a hanged man at the beginning of the first game. This is the same chair and the same door as Thin Man has, and the hanged man's legs also looks like his. So is this a reference, a coincidence, or Thin Man got tired of eternal wait? Maybe its another timeline? Or this is how Thin Man ended the eternal cycle? In general, the game seems to project a very transcendental perception of reality: the world is just an illusion, a projection, a "broadcast", and an "all-seeing eye" is looking upon it from another dimension. All the kids are representing souls trapped in this eternal cycle of life and death, where the time itself is just a part of an illusion. Time after time, they go through their tests, trying to become a better version of themselves in their "next life". But the entity from the outer dimensions, with appearance of "all-seeing eye" and lavkraft-style flesh horror, overtook this system. It created the "Cult of an eye" (a.k.a illuminati) to control more powerful beings, as weak beings (most monsters, viewers, guests, etc) are being trapped in this eternal cycle (by their own obsessions). The eye gets more and more control, devouring all power from poor souls, as they never get a real chance to escape. Of course, this is not what literally happening in the game. But it looks like foundation of game's universe have something in common with this kind of philosophy.
This is my theory. The games are chronological. 6 gains her powers in the in LN1. There must be something on the maw that gave The Lady her powers which is unknown to us and 6 ATM making her powers weaker when she leaves the maw. When we meet up with Mono and 6 in LN2, 6's powers are weak, Mono obviously doesn't know anything about 6 so to me she's been playing the long con when she realizes she's gonna need help to get out. We know that Mono has his own powers and I think that he got out of the eyeball dimension before his growth cycle began developing. He got out before he became an adult. So when he actually meets 6 he's more inclined to be trusting of others because he was literally "born" yesterday. 6 on the other hand knows not to trust anyone. So when we see the Thin Man "watching out" for Mono by kidnapping 6 it's like he's trying to prevent the thing OR EVENT that would make him the thin man. The event being 6's betrayal. Then a now jaded Mono voluntarily returns to his chair grows up and waits patiently to have his vengeance on 6.
Theory on where are the guest in Little Nightmares 2, The guest are either on the maw or the boat, or are in the higher class part of the pale-city and the viewers are in the lower class of the pale-city.
i think in VLN Six never wear a coat but escaped to The Pale town - therefore the coat could be also washed by the sea or something. LNM 2 comes and here goes Mono appearing out from the TV, experienced teleportation beforehand running like from the threat or just by accident touching TV as we did several times, not realising what could be but always pursuing the dream of opening the door. Then he meets Six and they get the raincoat, after she was kidnapped she got possesed or cursed leaving her shadow behind all the time, killing Mono for her sake and moving forward to LNM. Where she wakes up in her suitcase which we already saw in LNM2 in another dimension, her shadows and the raincoat cursed and weakend. LNM1 comes and all that stuff happens and the death of the Lady and her new powers leaving her witout hunger but free doing what she wants. The end. ALSO. We got clues of curse or possesion from Mono who already witnessed teleportation and had the ability to see and touch shadows WHICH Six also acquired while being taken to another realm.
There's definitely a bigger power here, someone is controlling the nightmare. Maybe in the next game, we get to see who the real villain of this world and finally, stop this monster and ends the nightmare once and for all.
It is 300% a prequel Must've been changed during development Cuz we see Six powerless, shadow Six be created, the coat found again, the hunger appear for the 1st time, and the tease of six going to the Maw Also, this may be a reach...but the hunter's den is reachable via raft...guess what game ends with Six in a raft? Timeline goes VLN, LN2 and LN And there is enrichment for it!! Cuz now we know Thin Man freed himself again after the secret ending of LN
So when was the signal tower actually built and why? Thin man (mono) wasnt the thing keeping the tower up it was the music box because when you destroy it everything start to crumble down but if the tower breaks and falls apart does it mean that their will always be a signal tower
I guess the Mono(thinman) turn six into a monster and keep inside the cignal tower. Because the tower need someone will be master mind and controll the cignal thinman(mono) did it to change he's future.
Mabey the eye leads every person towards a path of evil and it shows it self as the shadow of the characters soon to be self along with all the other antagonists Mono = Thin Man, betrayal Six = Unkown, unrelenting hunger and rage, distrust
Wait in the original comic of Little nightmare we see six in the pale city and the ferryman saves her Theory: Six probably traveled through a different timeline and I believe The Mono we play is the good side Mono and is actaully trying to stop Six from being Killed also who is still Veronica?
Maybe Devs said LN 2 sequel because Prequel : Very Little Nightmare Sequel : Little Nightmare 2 And Then : Little Nightmare 1 ( This is My opinion thought, and sorry for the bad English )
Maybe the shadow six is the real good six and the six we played in little nightmares is the evil one. She gradually became more fucked up in the first one tho so idk
My theory why six betrayed mono: the reason why she betrayed mono it's because mono destroyed six's music box which I'm gonna call "Memory piece" so mono destroyed six's memory piece a.k.a music box that means six have no memories about mono and all the adventures they had so six have no reason why she should save mono
Hey man remember me from yesterday. Man it’s Cool and all that your making a video a day. But maybe you should look after yourself. You might get burned out. All I’m saying is I’m is you might need.a break and I’m worried
i think the viewers became the guests would make sense because no one in the pale city seem to be wearing masks but everyone in the maw wears masks this might be because the viewers litterally dont have a face but they do seem to have a mouth or atleast a hole in their face to put food into and even if they dont eat if you see the discription of viewers on the bandai namco sight it says something along the lines of "the tv gives them all they need fattening them up" it is possible that in the comics six entered a later part of the pale city with the viewers evolved into guests
When you think about it monos the reason why six dropped him. because while running fron ADULT MONO AKA THIN MAN mono hid under the bed and six hid under a table (dumb hiding spot btw) but ADULT MONO captured six and thats when the shadow of six..was seen....or created... if the theory that shadow six is evil and made six drop mono was true this would make sense. If ADULT MONO hadn't kidnapp six shadow six would have never been made and she would have never dropped mono.... but this is a loop withc means there had to be the very first mono and the very first six there has to be a start but then why did the 1st six drop mono......
It could be those are not dreams but memories

If everything goes in a circle. Wouldn't it be both then? Prequel and Sequel, because a circle has no end and no beginning. As you said it is or it seems to be a loop.
That what I was thinking too!
Thats what i think too!
There is a beginning for this loop because the very first six and the very first mono never had a thin man so how would the loop start you say? Well the flesh and eye man that chases you at the end of the game on little nightmare 2 started the loop as he can change peoples looks and a lot of other things, he even made a illusion of the tv station because he is the tv station but it doesn’t seem like it.
If there is a discussion comming up then I don't mind if someone makes a new direct post about thories below the vid.
I don't understand much of it and haven't played any of the "litte nightmares"-games. I know the post up there it's not a well thought out idea on my part.
Good thing I’m not alone in thinking this
I love the theory, and all the work you do man! Buuuuuut, there are things that don't make sense with the current set of theories are going around, so I thought I'd try my hand at disputing them and/or putting some doubt on them, as well as some of my own interpretations and theories.
1. Mono/Thin Man: It's indisputable that mono becomes thin man, so the question that should be asked is, is Thin Man mono? Many have stated that thin man is trying to save mono from six, but this doesn't make sense at all. Because if that was his goal, then he already achieved that when he captured six. But instead of killing her he captures her, giving Mono reason to confront and defeat him, leading to him being betrayed by six. So that theory makes no sense. So then, who is Thin Man? Is he actually mono? Or is he like the distorted six, a monster created by the signal monster/dimension/thing. I'm thinking the latter, to be honest. A monster created from the hate and fear of a child, to be used as a puppet by an abomination.
2. Is Thin Man actually trapped, waiting to be released by mono? A weird question to ask for some, but I believe the answer is no, he is not and the answer is simple. In the 2nd comic released before the game came out, Thin Man himself captures the child in the comic. Now, how could this be, if he was imprisoned? Well, he never was, and while I doubt he captured all the children that turned into glitched remains, considering the placement of some of the others it's pretty hinted that Thin Man paid them a personal visit. So then, why is it that Thin Man only pays us a visit when mono opens the door? Again, it's simple. Had six not stopped mono the first and second time he accessed the t.v, he would be coming after us far sooner. The reason he comes after us when he does is because we open the door to the signal, which draws the attention of the thin man. It's nothing more than that. An accident, though chances are that even if six had stopped us the third time, he would have noticed us as we drew closer.
3. Prequel or Sequel? This one has been throwing people for a loop, and honestly, there are valid arguments for both. I, however, subscribe to it being a sequel, and here's why. When we find distorted six, she’s inside a children's room. Now, assuming that the signal tailored the room to make six as docile and cooperative as possible, the music box being the key item for this, then this room was made for six specifically. If this is true, then why is the suitcase that we see six wake up in LN1 in the room? It makes no sense for it to be there unless six would take comfort in it, and since she spent gods only knows how long using it as a home in LN1, it probably would be a source of comfort, or protection, for her. Not only that, but the context of LN1 makes no sense from this point of view. In LN1, six has been down in the deepest parts of the maw for a while, and her goal is obvious. Escape. Which makes no sense if she was going there to eat and/or kill the lady. Why would she have the option of hugging the gnomes if she planned on eating them? Why would wander to the deepest darkest parts of the maw? Nothing about LN1 makes sense if we're going there from LN2. As for the raincoat… I'm waiting for the DLC before I start prodding that. As for the secret ending and the picture of the maw, I think it's trying to tell us where we are going to next, or back to in this case.
4. If this is a sequel, then why doesn't six have her powers? The signal tower is our culprit here. It's stated quite often (and shown) that the signal warps reality itself, so it's safe to say that it trumps anything six gained from the lady. Now, why isn't six hungry at all throughout the game? This is a theory of mine, nothing concrete, but it goes like this; When six ate the lady, followed by everything else that stood in her way, she became full, or at least appeased, for awhile. In fact, she probably stuffed herself so much that only at the end of LN2 did she feel the need to feast again (or maybe she did some scrounging of screen), and now that the signal has been disrupted for the time being (Where definitely not done with it by a long shot), she can once again satiate her appetite. Such is her curse.
5. Now, what about shadow six? One option to think about is that shadow six is directly linked to her power. Not the lady's power, but hers. Just as mono had his counterpart in the thin man, six probably had hers in the lady, her powers more specifically. Does that make them the same? Hard to say. I don't believe so personally, but nothing says otherwise at the moment so meh. And if shadow six is tied to her powers, then she wouldn't appear while the signal is active. So what's up with glitched six then? Hard to say honestly. We know that the glitched kids we find are shadows left behind from before they were taken, so it's possible that glitched six is what remains of her compassion and/or innocence that she gained during the course of LN2, as we see it trying to lead mono like she had been doing all throughout the game. We've seen six act the way the glitch does once in the game, when or if you stop to play in the playground. That would make six’s betrayal make far more sense if her soul had become fragmented.
I might update if anything catches my attention, but for now I hope I've given you who actually read this mess something to think about. And if you disagree, then let me know and why. Talking theory is always fun after all :D
man really dug up the game here
hmmmmmm.......interesting theory
Jesus christ bro what is wrong with you.
@@BBQ_Bacon_Burger lmao he just explained his theory and my man's serious in this, plus his theory seems valid to me
@@gauge5683 Ikr
I think it works as both a prequel and a sequel if we go by the loop. For example, the game ends with Six going to the Maw but she goes onto become the lady, until she gets killed by past Six and the cycle starts all over again.
The reason the Lady created the Maw according to the official description "Amidst the chaos of the world outside, The Maw is the only place that makes sense." meaning the influence from Pale City probably interferes with her powers. The Six we encounter at the beginning may have lost her memories and in turn her powers after leaving the Maw the closer she got to the city. But as we see her go from meek and fearful, to more aggressive and vengeful, as the game progresses, that's her real personality slowly coming back. Once the thin man is defeated, Six regains her powers and memories back, and betrays Mono upon recognizing him as the Thin man responsible for interfering with her memories and abilities. Six leaves for the Maw to become the lady and the cycle starts all over again.
The Lady and six also have a sort of fixation on music, the lady has a music box on her residence and is constantly humming the same tune, which Six hums at the end of the game. Either way I think the eye is definitely at fault and its some sort of eldritch abomination keeping itself in power by turning the only two kids with powers strong enough to defeat it, turned against each other in a time loop where only ruin awaits them each time
@@TeCeeBoi when was this confirmed? Give me the link
When the **** six is a lady. She just escape and stolen lady power......
Theory:
Six is trying to stop the cycle by stopping Mono from releasing the thin man, so she wont get captured and betray mono.
Notice how many times she pulled him out of the T.V?
She tried pulling him out but mono's curiosity led him to releasing the thin man and let the cycle repeat again.
Six gets captured, Mono saves Six, Six betrays Mono, Mono becomes thin man.
She goes to the maw
With the curse of uncontrollable hunger
Eats the lady and becomes her
Thennn repeat
Here we go. A real "theory" and story explained video, and as promissed, you have my "Thumbs up" this time. Good work, Sault.
there’s many good theories out there, i just seen a really good break down of one earlier today. but its very rare.
When six drops mono that is the only time six sees mono without a mask
The guys was so ugly she was like "fuck no"
Mono's face is visible with some of the additional hats so if you're implying she dropped him because she recognized him as the thin man's host I don't think that's the case. If you pay attention to what six is doing in some segments you'll notice she's not exactly kindhearted and forgiving. And when Mono breaks her music box and she returns to normal you can tell from her body language she's glaring at him. It's subtle but I think that's when she puts him on her black list.
@@Demokaze i mean, but are the found hats “canon”? They are for customizing Mono but I’d say that canonically he wears his bag always
@@chicken0w044 There is no reason to assume that. The hats serve no useful purpose for that to fall under the gameplay mechanic explanation. If that was the case I think the devs would emphasize that by not including any hats that don't cover his face if it was important for his identity to remain hidden until the end.
@@Demokaze That's what i am saying, since the hats are important story wise, why Fix on a detail like covering his face? it doesnt affect the story in any way
Hmm, this is interesting. Perhaps six knew that in order to retain the cycle, she had to drop mono, because its like the grandfather paradox, if she didn't drop mono, the tall man wouldn't exist and therefor she wouldn't be in that situation. edit: And so maybe, six has tried saving mono, but each time she gets sent back to the hunters room. This would mean that those tallies on the wall aren't days, they're different times she has been there
Woah 🤯
Also that would make sense as to why we “respawn” Because if we were to die, the tall thin man wouldn’t be alive and so we are sent back
Interesting theory

This a long comment please excuse for that, After watching all the videos, I think very little nightmare is the start and six is one of the failed product from the nest. At the end of very little nightmare we see six in a white one piece. And we see the yellow jacket floating in the drainage Canal, and we can see that six used a raft to escape.
And in little nightmare 2, we see six in same white one piece, so I think after she used the raft, she came to forest and was caught by the hunter, from this we can see that nest is on mountain and forest where hunter lives is below it. After mono saves her, he gives her the yellow jacket and escapes. And in the ending we can see that six is hungry and shadow six shows her the next location to go to. Which is where little nightmare 1 comes into play.
The pretender is the boss of the nest and is responsible for growing manager candidates for the eye from children that the pretender kidnapped. In very little nightmare it is shown that the pretender can vanish people leaving only their clothes. And little nightmare 2 we see some places in the city that only have clothes but not people.
The pretender father is shown hanging in little nightmare 2, it can be assumed that, he father manages the tv’s by sitting on the chair to manipulate the people. But choose to commit suicide because He cannot continue working for the eye. At end of little nightmare 2 mono uses the same chair, as he has no other choice but to use it.
In the little nightmare 2 it is also shown that when six is pulled into the tv and mono goes into to tv to save her, we can see that six is turned into a monster, I think that is the reason why the nest thinks six is a failed product.
At the end of little nightmare mono kills the masked woman and unleashed her powers (the monster within her ) which to like gluttony. Six is always hungry and eats everything.
The reason six betrayed mono is when she was pulled into the tv, the monster within her already started breaking out of her. And she is not herself, that is why in little nightmare we can see that six does not save or try to save anyone. But in very little nightmare and little nightmare 2 she tries to save the protagonist.
I think the music box that mono breaks in little nightmare 2 is the point that lets six keep her sanity, but as mono breaks it, the monster in six also breaks of out six control.
And also nest should be create children who have different powers, like turning children into noms, vanishing people, or that teacher that can give life to the children puppets. etc.
And I also this ln2 might not be a loop, but in the tv world there is no timeline, there is not past, present or future. And the also I think the reason the thinman tried to capture six is because he know that six is a monster, and thinman tried to capture mono as he was trying to save himself from her.
Also it might be mono is also from nest and his power to teleport through tv’s I mean if I am not wrong we do have a scene in very little nightmare where in a tv room we have bunch of kids dolls with one empty sit. If am not wrong.
So mono might have teleport from nest to the forest below it.
And also the reason why six dreams of the lady in mask might be the lady in the mask is from the nest and he works on children to have them awaken powers in them them. And she might have turn a few kids into goems.
So my theory no loop, but are in chronological order of very little nightmare, little nightmare 2, little nightmare.
Best and more coherent theory I have ever read. I definitely agree.
The timeloop theory really falls short. Mono’s consciousness is singular, which means that if he is seeing himself, he is still himself, meaning that their are two of himself. There’s no focal point to work with. The only indication anyone gives for their being a time loop is six’s hunger, and the fact that mono become the new thin man. Yet what if the thin man is just a form? Like a type of office or title that automatically changes anyone captured into that thin man? Also, what if six satisfied her hunger during that last killing of all the guests, doesn’t have the hunger, and only has to periodically feed similar to the geisha? Just some thought to consider.
I think that Six dropped Mono as she was absorbing his powers. When she had enough, she was able to travel through the TV. She could never do this through the game until the end where she held Mono. Idk, that’s my theory.
You do know Six can’t absorb Powers😐 right?
@@shugoo6276 She can
@@viciousvize6363 no she can’t and if there is a chance she can the video even said She absorbed The lady’s powers by eating her if u actually listen And see It shows no were near mono getting aten by six and if u actually do ur research you could look up her ability’s and it shows nothing About Absorbtion

What’s weird is that we saw the suitcase she woke up in when she was in the maw, in the final boss fight.
The same suitcase is in the room her monstrous form was in, it could mean that this indeed a sequel
Im starting to think that... in the same vein as Inside or Limbo, Little Nightmares might be one of those stories that are more abstract than linear.
What proto Six, Six, the Runaway, Mono - what they experience in their respective games are I guess fragmented pieces of a puzzle that dont need to stick together necessarily.
When six gets kidnapped by the Thin man, you can see that Mono doesn't try to help her. She may be angry that He didn't try to save her while she had her hand out.
We try to pull her out of the TV tho before the chase
I can literally see mono covering his ears while trying to save her.
This doesn’t completely make sense tho. There is also the things that happen in the Little nightmares comic app. Mono was already in the forest and saw six as she was kidnapped by the hunter.
Right it’s like he’s picking and choosing what info he wants from the comics
My theory:
Six is not evil, She is not in control of herself that's why she seems evil, she really does care for mono, she lost part of her soul (shadow six) and has an evil force inside of her body ever since the beginning of little nightmare 1.
That's why she seems to have split personality.
Six still has what remains of her soul and is cursed by the eye.
Remember her music box has the eye sign, the music box is the reason of her curse.
I cant believe how some missed the fact that six rescued and pulled mono from the tv screen multiple times ,and blame her for something she didn't even do like letting go of mono at the end.
Six might be possessed by a dark entity, The evil was in her ever since the beginning of little nightmare 1, the evil spirit is what causing her stomach to growl, its inside of her. Like some sort of spirit possession she is not in total control of her body. That's why its hard to understand six cause sometimes she is nice at times and at other times evil as if she has has two distinctive personalities. Mono knew that he had to destroy the music box to end this curse.
People need to ask themselves Why would six drop mono when she is the one who pulled him from the TV like 3 times. If she wanted to get rid of him and imprison him with the Eye she could have done it before.
This doesn't add up that's why I know for sure the real six would not let go of mono.
In addition to that its not normal for a kid(even in little nightmares world) to eat a dead rat, a kid, and a women. its not six who did it, its the evil force inside of her forcing her to do it.
The stomach growling is a sign that the evil is taking control of her, another sign remember the shadow six appearing before she ate the run away kid.
Remember the secret ending the same stomach growling sound and shadow appeared after she dropped mono.
I also thought about that , and noticed that mono which is the thin man himself is tryng to separate shadow six from her body , thats why the thin man captured her in order to save her from the evil shadow six but the little mono had no idea and still try to get six out on the tv transmission realm , and i think the thin man told six that little mono is the thin man himself when mono and six running for their escape from the realm of tv transmission that where mono jump and six holds heS Hand , six knew that shell be reunited with her Shadow the evil entity if she try to bring mono out with her she might lose control of her body cus shadow six will possess six's body and the evil will take control of her body and eat what living she sees cus the evils hunger feeds on a living , the reason why she chose to drop mono and left him behind because She is scared that mono will be eatin alive by her spirit's hunger. Thats my own theory tho
I think I’ve cracked this. After the events of very little nightmares, six gets on the raft and takes the raincoat travelling to the pale city. Here she looses her raincoat and is taken to the maw. The events of little nightmares 1 happens and six absorbs the ladies powers, (the power to drain the power out of things). She finds herself escaping and when she finds the hunter she hides downstairs boarding herself in. Her safe space. Mono comes and mono takes her from that safe space and they escape together. Six regains her raincoat and little nightmares 2 happens. However when six turns into monster six, the signal tower uses the music box to keep her there as it knows that the music box reminds her of when she was safe in the room. She felt safe. At least that was until mono breaks the music box and takes her out of this safe place once again. The bridge scene can be explained like this: six can’t travel through TVs as shown in the scene when she’s trapped and mono tries to pull her out, and the exit to the signal tower looks a lot like a tv. She didn’t go back to mono because she cares about him, she went back so she could use the power of the lady and absorb some on monos power. By doing this she can escape and she drops him when she’s had enough (this also explains why the thin man is weaker and is killed by mono as he’s had some of his power absorbed by six.) And in the secret cutscene at the end with six, she gets hungry and looks at the maw. The one place filled with food without an owner. That empty slot that could be taken by six, six grows into the lady and destroys every mirror in the house to stop younger six killing her. However this doesn’t work and when she realises its all going to happen again she doesn’t fight knowing that this needs to happen letting younger six kill her.
The only hole in this is how six got from the maw to the hunters house but overall I think this fills a couple plot holes. I don’t like it when people say six is evil. Six is a survivor. She does everything to survive. She kept mono around so she can survive. She killed mono so she can survive.
Thin man isn't evil, he is trying to break the timeloop
By killing his past self
@@checkyourwall no he is trying to capture six so she can’t betray mono and drop him in the void and he is trying to get his past self not to kill him but to keep him away from six so six can turn to the monster and I’m guessing die
@@razrow234 no i think six arent actually "betray" mono she's trying to save mono from the time loop
I somehow didn't even notice let alone consider the pattern in "dreams". If not through more games, I hope we get more comics on this
The senior narrative designer Dave Mervik for little nightmares 2 told Polygon that this is a true “sequel”. He said that it’s “following up after the events of Six escaping the Maw and she joins Mono on a journey to the signal tower”.
I keep hearing this but no one ever sends the source and I can't find it. Is this real or are you just copy pasting what someone has got wrong?
In addition, that would contradict what the devs have already said:
“I cannot reveal too much about that without spoiling the story. So it’s a bit of a tricky question to answer. What I can say is if you play only Little Nightmares 2 straight through, you might not get all the answers you want. But if you try to dig more you might be able to get something that will connect the two and then make a link that you’re looking for.”
It's clear that they're talking about the secret ending where Shadow Six pushes Six to go to the Maw to satisfy her hunger, which can go both ways of being just a prequel where Six is now aboard the Maw or being both a sequel and prequel where Six eventually grows up to be the Geisha lady there thanks to the powers she got from eating her future self... which would mean she eventually gets eaten by her past self as well. But I don't see any evidence supporting it's just a sequel. People saying that are just parroting the wrong stuff over and over.

I can’t send the full link, but it’s on google,co.uk and it’s an article called “Little Nightmares 2: Story, Release Date, & More”
@@lostsouls7186 The writer got it wrong. They said the dev told Polygon that but if you look at the polygon article linked, there's nothing like that said. They just assumed it was the chronological sequel. Show me something that directly says the devs have said it takes place after. Because all they've said so far is that they don't want to answer that just yet. That paragraph I've sent before is proof of that.
@@BlappetureCO
They outright mention that it’s a sequel many times in the article and the LN Twitter page even made a post about a score the got saying it’s a “true sequel”.
What if that girl is not six. Instead it is kid plased to replay monos tragic story. Every time when kid mono is brought back new kid is kidnapted by the hunter. Meaby it is because six thanks to her powers was able to escape from loop after the first time. every other kid tries to became new six but fails thanks to hunger. All the characters leaves in their own nightmares
The game description calls her six so its six
Mono saw the door which had the thin man behind at the beginning of little nightmares 2, six saw the lady of the maw at the beginning of little nightmares 1
Mono defeated the thin man at the end, six did the same and defeated the lady
Mono got the powers of the thin man, six got the power of the lady
My conclusion
It is very possible Six is the lady of the maw, and mono is the Thin man.
Both were innocent children that have been turned evil by this dark world which is controlled by the Eye..
The reason why six dropped mono is because she though it was the right decision for him to stay inside if he had got out mono would lose his powers and won't be able to create time loops and teleport through time and space. Six wants to repeat the cycle to fix what went wrong
Mono dont got powers of thinman. Mono already have a power. Ability and his destiny to be a thinman. A cycle
I adore Little Nightmares universe in general and consider Six best of characters and do hope we will play as her again. But trying to fill up full context of this lore makes my head get burned, chopped up, exploded and forced to listen mooing of cows for eternity!!!
It's pretty obvious that it's a prequel, the reason she went to the Maw was to gain the ladys power so that she can recombine her soul that the Thin Man separated when he took her and stop her insatiable hunger.
Exactly it’s a prequel period there’s more evidence that states it’s a prequel not a sequel
It could be that the signal tower may need a "host" to help it take the live energy it needs to help it stay in the world and that's were Mono comes in. That he is the "right host" for the signal tower.
I think its symbolic because in a cruel world one act of kindness will break the cycle. Example if 6 never betrays mono he wouldn't become the thin man. And if the thin man would forgive 6 the signal tower wouldnt collapse. So its not just 6 betraying mono that makes the circle its all of it.
hopefully they have DLC for Six's arch, could be after the main game in getting Into the maw since the comic is cancelled and is not canon.
Why is no one celebrating that you are getting near 2k
The moment when I saw this channel it was at 700 subscribers (1 week 3 days ago)
I'm definitely celebrating by getting a XXL pizza soon
What if it goes little nightmare 2 (where she first find the rain coat), very little nightmares (she losses the rain coat to seven and gets it back in the end), and then little nightmares where she keeps the rain coat on through the whole thing. This would also support the ending of little nightmares 1of the thin man (AKA the eye scene). During this part of the game six has to hid from the eye or shell get evaporated. And the ending credits might be the plot of little nightmares 3 where mono finally gets back at six
Six is selfish a narcissist :
Does not release locked kids, kills and the eat lost kid who helped her and was turned into gnome by the lady . Betrayed Mono who saved multiple times .
Six in next game: I can suck souls and own a endless hunger for souls how could you beat me?
Thin Man: Remember me? Yeah you do!
@@randomguythatlikeshorrorga9588 Yeah but another 3 years for a sequal . To get a sastisfying conclusion
@@Meh-el1ej thinking ow long we would have to wait for Ln3 gives me mental pain
@@Meh-el1ej A small price to pay for revenge
You forgot that Six also hug some gnomes
All I know is that the game can only work as a sequel simply because the creators said it was, so the ending confused me. Is six going back to the maw? Does her evil transmission now have free will?
They said it’s a sequel but specifically said they wouldn’t confirm when it takes place in the timeline (source: www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-08-29-little-nightmares-2-interview )
Sequel can just mean the second thing to come out after the first thing in the same universe, no necessarily being next in the timeline. :)
When i beat the game i assumed that the thin man was a title not a specific person and mono is just the new thin man
Ima just wait for the 3rd game lol.. this is confusing.
what about the character comic of mono and six :- mono who is in a burning room with many other kids. Than the sprinklers starts and sets off the fire after a long hand starts to take kids away while mono watches it happen and tries to run away and hides in a broken tv which starts and probably teleport due to his ability into the forest.
six:- with out her rain coat running from the hunter tricks him by throwing a stone and from a way under the tree she passes through a hole and at the end after getting out of the hole she sees mono and after that the hunter catches her.
and i think because of it that its not a loop but second part is the prequel of the first though i can be wrong.
You missed a big theory. At the end when six drops mono is the only time we see him without his hat. Did six drop him because she saw his face and recognized him as the thin man? Seems like she was a pawn in this not realizing she was key to creating the thin man.
I think she dropped him because after getting captured by the thin man, she realized the connection between the two, she saw who he really was. Maybe that why when mono freed her from being monster, she stared at him, a strange odd stare
Now I don't think thin man is evil he just trying to stop the loop
Her name is Six after all, this might be the 6th cycle.
Another thing that not so many people noticed:
- In little nightmares 1 when u play against the Janitor there is a part were you have to turn on a TV and starts playing and strange music.
- This strange music appears in little nightmares 2 as well you can check it when using a TV on LN2 turning it off and on till you find the music.
* That means that Mono, while he is getting older, in all that time he is watching Six doing her things till he can get his revenge AND also shows the existence of a portal that connects Pale city and the Maw.
ALSO!!!
There's a room (in episode 4) with a portraid of the Lady and frames that show the Maw and the Guests. But it seems like a Man's room so.. It's the room of the Lady husband or maybe another next character¿? Also there's a figure like in LN1 the one's u have to break.
People have said that Six betrayed Mono because she KNEW that he was going to be the Thin Man one way or another.
Six could have seen the resemblance of Mono and the thin man and dropped him to prevent the cycle from repeating and Mono could have turned into the thin man because of Sixes betrayal.
What if Little nightmares 1 happens in the middle of Little nightmares 2? When Six was taken into the tv! Also when she is a big monster..maybe that was the climax of her powers acquired in the end of first part
Just my theory
You guys the rain coat comes from 6 past self. The time line is on loop meaning 6 future self is trying to persuade her present self into doing something different.
Why were there many six glitches throughout the pre-final level after she got kidnapped?
I know you didn't see my comment on your VLN story explain but thank you for answering my question and explaining the timeline (i hope you at least notice this comment)
What you suggested in regards to Six is plausible. I think she could have also been angry after he destroyed her music box and was getting revenge. The timeline definitely seems to be weird, though, like not from point A to point B.
I was thinking maybe Six dropped Mono because it was the first time Six saw Mono's face. Also, Six kept pulling Mono away from the tv because maybe Six saw the thin man before and that is why she dropped Mono when Six saw Mono's face.
Six was like "damn, so your Thin Man after all"
What if Six was in the school of the city and Very Little Nightmare was her traveling into the hunter's cabine ? That will explain why there is a rope placed in front of the school in a way of escape and why we find the yellow coat of Six on the land of the school. That will explain also why Six want to go to the right and not to the left for escape, she already has go to the left before and failed.
Well that's just a theory you may want to look on your free time ^^. Thanks for the video btw, I like how you give elements of your theory.
You know those eyes that blob thing at the end of the game make me think of the eldritch horror Yog Sothoth.
What if there’s two alternate universe the very little nightmares where she escapes the nest and goes to the maw and kills the lady and then the little nightmares two where mono and six meets by chance goes to tower then mono gets betrayed then six steals some of his powers then escapes through the tv then she spots the poster for the maw and heads to it through the ferryman or whatever his name is and reaches the maw and kills the lady
maybe six saw mono without his mask and realised he was the thin man then she dropped him?
Just a small theory the eye is an alien mass that crashed into the signal tower , but on impact it made everyone evaporate whoever who was not watching the television, then proceeded to take the minds of the viewers through the signal tower, but the signal would only go so far and create a loop inside it, six however got out and her shadow version is now with her and this is the beginning of her going to the maw.
This game is a prequel not a sequel.
Has nobody considered that six didn't know who he is until the last scene where he doesn't have his bag on?
There are new Little Nightmares comics out which follow Six, Mono and few other kids in various areas of the second game. One even includes Six encountering the Hunter.
7:32 The Runaway Kid doesn't become The Granny though, he becomes the Nome that Six eats in LN1. So that being a theory about them becoming the things they kill doesn't make sense entirely.
Theory: Mono is the next Thin Man and killed the previous one. Therefore, Mono Thin Man is still alive and will hunt Six in LN3 (he found her at the end of LN1).
You see the suitcase that she wakes up in Little Nightmares in the finale battle of Little Nightmares 2. She also appears to come violent after being taken by the school children. Waiting for Mono in the Hospital shes seen breaking fingers of a prosthetic arm. There is also the question as to how she is able to pull Mono from the TV and why she doesn't want him to open the door. Note when the door is opened six looks scared as if to say What have you done. She also clearly tries getting out of the TV but it fails. Then when Mono tries to save six in the TV world one of the first things he does is break through a broken door just like the start of the game. We find Six a giant monster version of herself obsessed with the music box and after its gone she comes back.
My theory is that Six is in fact The Ladies daughter and there is a connection to her and the Hunter. Six was sent there and not until Mono sets her free does she go from a weak child to the tainted fearless girl driven by revenge. To destroy the woman that made her go through it all in the first place.
Six is the daughter of the lady, who used to be good, until the signal tower changed and twisted everyone. She left the maw to take down the tower, but got caught. At the end six saw mono without a mask on and saw he was the thin man and that she couldn't save him. After her time in the tower she knew there was no saving the lady, but a chance to save mono from his fate. She then travels to the maw to kill the lady and take her power. With witch she seeks to destroy the tower and end the loop.
I think six drops Mono at the end because its the first time she see's his face after he takes the bag off to fight the thin man, and she recognises that they are the same person
Yes please more videos about little nightmares ^^ you explain very good
I don't think that this is a cycle. And I think that the actual timeline is like that. - Very little nightmares - little nightmares 2 - The comics - little nightmares 1. Let me explain it. In very little nightmares Six goes away from the fly house( I don't know how this location is named officially) without taking the jacket( or what it is). The jacket goes to the pale city by the sea. In the pale city a kid finds it and wears for a while. Than the kid is taken by the thin man and without the jacket like other people in little nightmares 2. Six finds it and wears. In the end of the second part of the franchise she decides to go to the Maw( I am sorry I don't know its right name, but in Russian it is called " Чрево(Chrevo"). She doesn't know how and because of this stays for a while the city. She meets other kids, hangs out with them( for some reasons, maybe because it is more possibly to survive if you aren't alone). Then the man who takes kids to the Chrevo appears and takes Six( others maybe could escape him). And then Six wakes up in the Chrevo.( As you can guess I am Russian. So my English might be not very good. But I hope that you understand what I want to stay.)
The streets being full of guests could be because for the moment the signal tower is down and the TVs don't hold their same power. Six's memory loss could be a gradual side effect from her brief monstafacation. If Six went from the nest washing up near the forest then got captured by the puppet hunter under orders from the thin man who does not want a paradox (explaining six's being kept alive by the hunter, the bullies and the doctor) he could have as you said set every detail of the adventure as a trap from memory playing director and unwitting star (he had a lot of time to stew over the events of LN2 in that chair).
So the thin man wanted revenge but not in a way that cause him to cease to exist. As Mono and Six continue to thwart the thin man he gets more and more desperate being so close and so far from his revenge (making Six suffer as the monster he sees her as forever) he makes a risky move thinking he has the benefit of knowing how the events played out last time but underestimates Mono and pays for it.
So Six's adventure goes: the nest> the forest> captured> LN2> spat out secret ending in pale city> comic: the pale city (free of the signal towers control)> plagued by the hollow static remnant of being phased into a monster(shadow six) six goes with the Ferryman to the Maw but escapes into the ducts suffering another bout of memory loss where because Six is not complete her hunger has become attuned to the lady's power(being the strongest thing nearby) before waking up in LN.
The reason Six is the only child in the series (the girl in the yellow raincoat, Mono, Bread girl, Runaway Kid, the nomes) that doesn't bother to help others when the opportunity arises is because six is hollowed emotionally there is nothing left of Six but hunger no longer capable of caring as the hunger to fill the growing void of being something that shouldn't exist grows Six must consume more to sustain herself (and where can you get your fill? the Maw). Mono is doomed to an endless rerun of his life in a hell-loop(LN2) and Six is doomed to fade or feed.
Good point. What if Six becomes the lady like in Mono’s predicament
I think that showing the raincoat at the end of VLN was just to show the girl was dead (evaporated by Pretender's power). How it got to where Six and Mono find it... who knows? :D
I already wrote that I think that is not a cycle thing. But I want to detail a little bit. Choosing my theory, somebody can ask a question. What about the thin man and Mono? I think that the thin man and Mono aren't the same person. Yes, they have the same powers and the same looks( i mean the same clothes), But are that worthy evidences? We don't have much information about how kids get their powers. I have a hypothesis about that. Maybe, the get powers when they expierence a strong fear. At this moment every kid gets a power related with feelings, thoughts at the moment( Six gets hunger because she felt anger at the moment when her last thing that she carried about was broken, Mono got his power when he was in a TV, maybe at this moment he wanted to teleport somewhere). According to this hypothesis, come kids might have the same powers because similar situations and thoughts,feelings they have expeirenced. Than it does make sense if the thin man and Mono are not the same person.
Speaking about the clothes, maybe its a special clothes for a who in the tower. Mono had different clothe when he was younger but with growing he got the clothes from the tower. it offered it for him, inviting to be the next.
I have a question regarding the Thin Man time loop theory. Look closely at the chair and the door in a room with a hanged man at the beginning of the first game. This is the same chair and the same door as Thin Man has, and the hanged man's legs also looks like his. So is this a reference, a coincidence, or Thin Man got tired of eternal wait? Maybe its another timeline? Or this is how Thin Man ended the eternal cycle?
In general, the game seems to project a very transcendental perception of reality: the world is just an illusion, a projection, a "broadcast", and an "all-seeing eye" is looking upon it from another dimension. All the kids are representing souls trapped in this eternal cycle of life and death, where the time itself is just a part of an illusion. Time after time, they go through their tests, trying to become a better version of themselves in their "next life". But the entity from the outer dimensions, with appearance of "all-seeing eye" and lavkraft-style flesh horror, overtook this system. It created the "Cult of an eye" (a.k.a illuminati) to control more powerful beings, as weak beings (most monsters, viewers, guests, etc) are being trapped in this eternal cycle (by their own obsessions). The eye gets more and more control, devouring all power from poor souls, as they never get a real chance to escape.
Of course, this is not what literally happening in the game. But it looks like foundation of game's universe have something in common with this kind of philosophy.
six changes the loop from many attempts and saves mon in time before he becomes the thin man
This is my theory. The games are chronological. 6 gains her powers in the in LN1. There must be something on the maw that gave The Lady her powers which is unknown to us and 6 ATM making her powers weaker when she leaves the maw.
When we meet up with Mono and 6 in LN2, 6's powers are weak, Mono obviously doesn't know anything about 6 so to me she's been playing the long con when she realizes she's gonna need help to get out.
We know that Mono has his own powers and I think that he got out of the eyeball dimension before his growth cycle began developing. He got out before he became an adult. So when he actually meets 6 he's more inclined to be trusting of others because he was literally "born" yesterday. 6 on the other hand knows not to trust anyone.
So when we see the Thin Man "watching out" for Mono by kidnapping 6 it's like he's trying to prevent the thing OR EVENT that would make him the thin man. The event being 6's betrayal. Then a now jaded Mono voluntarily returns to his chair grows up and waits patiently to have his vengeance on 6.
I'll just wait for Treesicle and/or game theory
I can't help but wonder if thin guy was the guy that was hanging in little nightmares 1, and that the thin man in this game is his 'shadow'.
Maybe she saw something when she got kidnapped by the thin man that would explain why she didn’t burn mono in the oven
Theory on where are the guest in Little Nightmares 2,
The guest are either on the maw or the boat, or are in the higher class part of the pale-city and the viewers are in the lower class of the pale-city.
That make sense , specially because the guest seems to be the higher level of his society
In the first game the TV song says "help her help her and we'll see" (six) and "he hung he hung hes gone" (thin man?/mono?)
Six only hated mono cuz mono is destroying the music box
No when six gets kidnapped she now knows that mono is thin man that's y she drops her
No she doesn't know, the reason she dropped him because it's an loop
maybe in little nightmare 2 she saw her shadow for a brief moment in the ending because she used some of mono's power?
The Hunter only shoots at Mono and in no way tries to recapture Six. Almost as if she doesn’t exist.
I've been waiting alight patiently
i think in VLN Six never wear a coat but escaped to The Pale town - therefore the coat could be also washed by the sea or something. LNM 2 comes and here goes Mono appearing out from the TV, experienced teleportation beforehand running like from the threat or just by accident touching TV as we did several times, not realising what could be but always pursuing the dream of opening the door. Then he meets Six and they get the raincoat, after she was kidnapped she got possesed or cursed leaving her shadow behind all the time, killing Mono for her sake and moving forward to LNM. Where she wakes up in her suitcase which we already saw in LNM2 in another dimension, her shadows and the raincoat cursed and weakend. LNM1 comes and all that stuff happens and the death of the Lady and her new powers leaving her witout hunger but free doing what she wants. The end.
ALSO. We got clues of curse or possesion from Mono who already witnessed teleportation and had the ability to see and touch shadows WHICH Six also acquired while being taken to another realm.
There's definitely a bigger power here, someone is controlling the nightmare. Maybe in the next game, we get to see who the real villain of this world and finally, stop this monster and ends the nightmare once and for all.
I like how people are just assuming that girl from Very Little Nightmares is Six even though in the comics multiple kids with rain coats are shown
in 4.03, i just realise there is a thin man drawing on the wall when six is taken, so weird, the room looks like a kid room cus many toys around.
What if the Yellow Jacket in Littlest Nightmares is Six at the end of the loop returning to the Nest bit out there but it would explain the Jacket.
It is 300% a prequel
Must've been changed during development
Cuz we see Six powerless, shadow Six be created, the coat found again, the hunger appear for the 1st time, and the tease of six going to the Maw
Also, this may be a reach...but the hunter's den is reachable via raft...guess what game ends with Six in a raft?
Timeline goes VLN, LN2 and LN
And there is enrichment for it!! Cuz now we know Thin Man freed himself again after the secret ending of LN
So when was the signal tower actually built and why? Thin man (mono) wasnt the thing keeping the tower up it was the music box because when you destroy it everything start to crumble down but if the tower breaks and falls apart does it mean that their will always be a signal tower
I guess the Mono(thinman) turn six into a monster and keep inside the cignal tower. Because the tower need someone will be master mind and controll the cignal thinman(mono) did it to change he's future.
But when six turned normal its like she forgot about mono and let him go cuz he destroyed the music box he tried to save her but six didnt want saving
The timeline is getting confusing like the fnaf timeline. HAHAHA.
Yow i saw my Comment in ur video ❤️❤️❤️
Mabey the eye leads every person towards a path of evil and it shows it self as the shadow of the characters soon to be self along with all the other antagonists
Mono = Thin Man, betrayal
Six = Unkown, unrelenting hunger and rage, distrust
Wait in the original comic of Little nightmare we see six in the pale city and the ferryman saves her
Theory: Six probably traveled through a different timeline and I believe The Mono we play is the good side Mono and is actaully trying to stop Six from being Killed also who is still Veronica?
Did six drop mono or did mono let go by himself after all the games description implies that mono was trying to save six from a terrible fate.
Maybe Devs said LN 2 sequel because
Prequel : Very Little Nightmare
Sequel : Little Nightmare 2
And Then : Little Nightmare 1
( This is My opinion thought, and sorry for the bad English )
Maybe the shadow six is the real good six and the six we played in little nightmares is the evil one. She gradually became more fucked up in the first one tho so idk
Does anyone know where we can read the comics?
Here's a theory: six let's mono go because she never seen his face until the end which she probably sees he's the thin man
What I think is very little nightmares takes place first then little nightmares 1 because of the suitcase in the boss battle then 2
My theory why six betrayed mono: the reason why she betrayed mono it's because mono destroyed six's music box which I'm gonna call "Memory piece" so mono destroyed six's memory piece a.k.a music box that means six have no memories about mono and all the adventures they had so six have no reason why she should save mono
Good theory! This explains why she has no memories when she goes to the maw
Hey man remember me from yesterday. Man it’s Cool and all that your making a video a day. But maybe you should look after yourself. You might get burned out. All I’m saying is I’m is you might need.a break and I’m worried
i think the viewers became the guests would make sense because no one in the pale city seem to be wearing masks but everyone in the maw wears masks this might be because the viewers litterally dont have a face but they do seem to have a mouth or atleast a hole in their face to put food into and even if they dont eat if you see the discription of viewers on the bandai namco sight it says something along the lines of "the tv gives them all they need fattening them up" it is possible that in the comics six entered a later part of the pale city with the viewers evolved into guests
When you think about it monos the reason why six dropped him. because while running fron ADULT MONO AKA THIN MAN mono hid under the bed and six hid under a table (dumb hiding spot btw) but ADULT MONO captured six and thats when the shadow of six..was seen....or created... if the theory that shadow six is evil and made six drop mono was true this would make sense. If ADULT MONO hadn't kidnapp six shadow six would have never been made and she would have never dropped mono.... but this is a loop withc means there had to be the very first mono and the very first six there has to be a start but then why did the 1st six drop mono......
