One other fun fact hinting that Joshua isn't actually a player: Every time a timer attaches itself to a Player's hand, they'll flinch in pain. Joshua never flinches when the timer attaches because he never gets one.
Y'all ever think about how Sho straight-up LIES about what he eats? 'Cause if Neo:TWEWY taught me anything, it's that Math Man has one serious sweet tooth.
My favorite Easter Egg is the one that we know why neku is egdy: adding what neku says in the death of rhyme "it's like that time" and what his says in Pork City (On Another Day) about how a friend of his died and he couldn't save him, we can deduce that this also happened in the normal timeline and for the trauma of seeing his friend die, Neku distances himself from people so as not to live the same.
I always think about this detail when I listen to runaway if it comes up in my playlist. This poor kid lost his best friend at a really young and impressionable age, the one person who could relate to him gone. So he shut his heart away from the world, afraid of new connections because the idea of him losing them at any sudden moment. Which happens to him three times in his game (Rhyme, Shiki, Joshua). My heart hurt so much for Neku but I’m so happy that he was able to still rise above that to become his best self and it really goes to show how much his life changed from being in the game and how strong his conviction had become.
12:05 apparently that’s also a pun on the word “sou ka” which can be translated along the lines of “I see” which probably lines up with Sho assessing that he can kill Joshua now. Know that from hearing the word a lot in anime lol. Edit: not sure about if it applies to the version with Beat as well.
Here’s another fun fact 😁 Up until A New Day, everyone operating the Reaper’s Game at Harrier level or higher (excluding the Wall Reapers) had a greyscale color scheme. It serves as a subtle hint of both Joshua and Hanekoma’s identities and partially applies to Beat for his short stint as a Reaper.
A little extra "easter egg" or trivia that we also learned with some characters like Sho having a sweet tooth. Neku may be a pill popper or as many have eluded that hes closed off and depressed cus he lost somone. He probably is heavily medicated. I dont pretend to know how Japans Healthcare works but when i would farm the bytes for stats. Everyone hates the pharmaceutical stuff but Neku likes them. So... make of that what you will.
Kitaniji has the kanji for dragon in his name, Josh's "-ryu" is just a homophone. Could interpret as a sorta of connection since Draco Cantis since its technically a "fusion" of the 2
So many references. Since you covered some music I’m gonna throw out that The Death March versions of songs are from Ishimoto’s real life band The Death March which took it’s inspiration from Def March in game. There’s a few other “unnamed” NPCs that get names on another day despite appearing in the main game, notably “Shrimp” Makoto’s boss obsessed with Reaper Creeper. There’s more that could be talked about if one wanted to get pedantic enough but those are the ones from the top of my head.
As someone who played Solo Remix (found a way to play it for free) I can say it pretty much has the same references up to Another Day. The Coco cutscene doesn't matter. She just provides in-app purchases in Solo Remix.
I had no idea that 9:30 scene existed! Now my video is outdated One of my favorite references in the game is how the pins 276 to 279 were references to japanese gaming magazines on the japanese version of the game. Also the final fantasy callouts with the pins based on the series's summons Another interesting (and very minor) detail is how the material items (Scarletite, Rare metal, etc) are gifted to the player in the order the take on the pinlist, they number of gems on the pin's image also corresponds to their order
not entirely sure if these count but if you go into Mexican dog immediately after getting to Spain hill on week 1 day 5 you can encounter ai and mina and get some extra dialogue before you have to erase the noise from them outside oh and on another day in the room of reckoning when it's all red you can see a winged figure sitting in the composer's chair only on DS I believe and this one probably doesn't count because it can't normally be encountered but is kinda funny there's a section on the DS debug menu that'll take you to a pink screen with some scribbles on it and text that directly mentions the movie Soylent Green I'd assume it's only in the English version but I couldn't get debug menu in the japanese version no matter what I tried
Finally a new video! Btw Rindos voice actor tweeted 6 days ago "Kingdom Hearts" after 2 days "Kindom Hearts II" and then "Kingdom hearts III". Do you think this has a meaning or is he just doing that to troll us😭 cause I really want the twewy gang in Kingdom Hearts
I believe Paul has stated that being in Kingdom Hearts is one of his dream roles! I doubt that his tweets are a confirmation that it's happening but I wouldn't be surprised if he did get to voice Rindo in a future game.
You mention that the first song that plays on your pause menu, It's So Wonderful, is also the title screen music, with the description "When you feel like resetting everything..." You may also consider that the entire plot happens because a certain someone felt like resetting everything.
Someday goes extremely hard as a boss theme, ngl. Having played the DS version first, it's surprising but it really crowns the climax of week 2 for me.
What do you mean the TWEWY manual has a meatspin reference??? That information damn near exploded my mind. I want a copy of that manual, that's too funny.
When I played Union Cross/ X, I always had the Neku medal on my main team cause KH got me into twewy in the first place lol. I also used a lot of Org13 medals but we dont talk about that.
I know this video is a little old but I'd like to add how Sho having traits for both the lion and the boar is also shown in his personality. His ambition to take out the one on top and become the new ruler of shibuya matches the lion while his recklessness and intelligence matches the boar There is a strange parallel between Sho and Mr. Mew in how both can be seen as either a cat or a pig depending on how you look at them
About the lvl i flare, real numbers are not a multiple of i. Basically, when you add i to real numbers, you get complex numbers with a real part and an imaginary part. Only of the real part is 0 will the complex number be a multiple of i (as FF only allows integers as the multipliers to apply to get the target's lvl, and i is not an integer). However, since the action does not take place in the real world/RG, it can be assumed that players have a real part of 0 and are pure imaginary numbers. This could help explaining why Joshua was (somewhat) safe.
As someone who is learning Japanese, I has a real moment when the word rabbit came up. I'm used to 兎 being the word for rabbit and the word that came up looks a lot like 卵、which is egg, so I read her name wrong at first and was really confused about where the zodiac symbol was supposed to be. 😅 There's probably a pun somewhere in this about rabbit eggs.
I feel it's a little underrated but it is true that the anime is noticeably inferior the games in almost every way. But if you're a fan, it can still be worth a watch!
We're all fans of Kingdom Hearts here on the channel! If we feel like we have something unique to add to any KH discussions, we'll throw our hat into the ring. There are already a few KH videos on the channel.

Joshua never flinches when the timer attaches because he never gets one.
14:12 bonus detail, the kid who says "I see dead people" in the sixth sense is Haley Joel Osment who voices Sora in everything kingdom hearts
Whom Neku will get to meet in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
Y'all ever think about how Sho straight-up LIES about what he eats? 'Cause if Neo:TWEWY taught me anything, it's that Math Man has one serious sweet tooth.
BlackJupiter is always satisfying my cravings for TWEWY content.
Oh damn, Uzuki using those cute pink bunny stickers in NEO makes more sense now, knowing about her naming convention

Edit: not sure about if it applies to the version with Beat as well.
24:18 you may be more familiar with the localized version “Elite Beat Agents”
Also the Zeta thing is a pun with "zettai“ which means absolutely or definitely
Can’t wait to hear you narrate the hypothetical future DYKGaming video on TWEWY
Here’s another fun fact 😁
Up until A New Day, everyone operating the Reaper’s Game at Harrier level or higher (excluding the Wall Reapers) had a greyscale color scheme. It serves as a subtle hint of both Joshua and Hanekoma’s identities and partially applies to Beat for his short stint as a Reaper.
Shiki is also named Green because her Envy was higashizawas secret spice, even saying she was green with it!
Missed so many of these! Never would I have thought TWEWY would have a reference for... meat spin..........

I like this headcanon actually. Poor guy though he's just 15
Kitaniji has the kanji for dragon in his name, Josh's "-ryu" is just a homophone. Could interpret as a sorta of connection since Draco Cantis since its technically a "fusion" of the 2
In the mobile port Joshua still class neku by his name before asking for nekus name. All the new boss themes are also in the. Mobile port as well

20:50 heyy wasn't expecting to find my artwork here xD I'm glad I found this channel, I'm going through a major TWEWY content hunger atm
Proof that the man speaking isn't AgentRandom:
The real AgentRandom was the friends we made along the way.
This is so interesting, I knew like.... only half of those, so it was very entertaining to watch! Twewy never ceases to impress, god bless twewy...
not entirely sure if these count but if you go into Mexican dog immediately after getting to Spain hill on week 1 day 5 you can encounter ai and mina and get some extra dialogue before you have to erase the noise from them outside
oh and on another day in the room of reckoning when it's all red you can see a winged figure sitting in the composer's chair only on DS I believe
and this one probably doesn't count because it can't normally be encountered but is kinda funny there's a section on the DS debug menu that'll take you to a pink screen with some scribbles on it and text that directly mentions the movie Soylent Green I'd assume it's only in the English version but I couldn't get debug menu in the japanese version no matter what I tried
The King returns!!

I loved this game now im playing neo the world ends with you
I basically didn’t blink for this whole video. Nice work man!!
You mention that the first song that plays on your pause menu, It's So Wonderful, is also the title screen music, with the description "When you feel like resetting everything..."
You may also consider that the entire plot happens because a certain someone felt like resetting everything.
Fun fact! in the OG version of TWEWY on the DS, Sho's fight plays Someday, not Transformation
And in the battle with Phantera Cantus sounds Give all your love, not Twister on DS
And Transformation was associated with Reaper Beat in the DS version
Somepeak
Someday goes extremely hard as a boss theme, ngl. Having played the DS version first, it's surprising but it really crowns the climax of week 2 for me.
You know I’ve played to much splatoon when I can pick out the music from anywhere 28:07
What do you mean the TWEWY manual has a meatspin reference??? That information damn near exploded my mind. I want a copy of that manual, that's too funny.
So this is way late, but at 29:00, with the Final Fantasy summon Tin Pin series, Tin Pin Golem is also based on the FF Summon of the same name.
14:32 Is that why Konishi always uses monkey as an insult when talking to Beat?
When I played Union Cross/ X, I always had the Neku medal on my main team cause KH got me into twewy in the first place lol. I also used a lot of Org13 medals but we dont talk about that.

34:04 I don't know why every time I saw that image my mind automatically thought of Markiplier
I'm kinda sad that Josh knowing Neku's name before being properly introduced was removed. I thought it was very intentional
The someday linking to CoM. Is because h.a.n.d the studio who made Kh com would go to make twewy after pitching a ds sequel to com. So that why!
7:03 No🧡
Week 2, Day 3 has a bonus scene of Ai talking to Mina and revealing her Tin Pin date with Mick was a bust.
Ayo mad respect for this video. I wish it had more views! I will like and subscribe to do my part!

Love the content! Should we watch the anime? Is it worth it?
I feel it's a little underrated but it is true that the anime is noticeably inferior the games in almost every way. But if you're a fan, it can still be worth a watch!
hitting the bell 3 times is a Dark Souls reference. maybe. Also KH traverse town I think. That's more likely.
Hey you’re back. Do you do KH stuff too or just TWEWY stuff?
We're all fans of Kingdom Hearts here on the channel! If we feel like we have something unique to add to any KH discussions, we'll throw our hat into the ring. There are already a few KH videos on the channel.
Return of the King!
27:28
I can't see it
What's the song that plays in the background of the extra trivia section of the video?
It is the Final Remix version of Rush Hour!
@@BlackJupiter thank you!
March third is my birthday too
Wait a second I thought the switch port of the first game was the mobile version? But on the switch. Guess I heard wrong??
bruh i actualy mess every game with cheat on Emulator
i actualy didn't notice it , Pin can drag everywhere when pause game
The spoiler speciallist
where did you find the image of the manual with the meatspin reference?
Leo is my Zodiac sign by the way
So, I guess if I had a Noise form it would be Sho's
Loved the video... NOW DO NEO EASTER EGGS! jkjkjkjk
SOON....Just not too soon ;)
First
This is pay to win.
