In the first game there was a really long man that hanged himself off of a little chair.. I think it could be mono after realizing the loop would never end so it would be better to have just died. Idk, really dark to think about but it's just a theory
Awe the part where thin man and mono are fighting and mono takes the bag off of his head, it looks like thin man is reaching out saying “stop✋🏻, you don’t understand” trying to express he is trying to help.
This game really puts the title “Little Nightmares” into perspective. Stating that the scariest things in this franchise isn’t the giant monsters, but these two kids.
I only really want a happy ending for mono and six; six's betrayal felt forced but I can only theorize as to why it was specifically made like this. Six during her time in the signal tower learnt of how the thin man came to be, thin man being an amalgamation of the past/present/future and I think the reason six became not only such an abomination but also a large one at that is that the signal tower rapidly aged her. The Time Loop theory still applies here but that six let go of mono to stop the thin man from chasing after her as I believe the thin man was never really defeated but further repelled back in time. Wherever mono goes the thin man has a connection to leap into but here is where things get interesting, I believe that six specifically went to the maw to steal said powers which seem to be able to steal the life force out of people (flesh) and that six will come back to the signal tower with her new powers to destroy the tower once and for all.
i feel so bad for mono. he was just trying to break the cycle and get them both out of there, but he’s never able to succeed :( i get so sad when he just stands on the chair and then sits down as he accepts his fate bc he looks so little and defeated
@@arlecchino.6582 sort of? she created the time paradox when she let mono go, which is why mono is forever trapped. so in that sense yes, but we also don’t know for sure why she let him go so the story is not entirely clear
if thin man only comes for the flesh, then the doctor was trying to save people by transferring them to mannequins. he also helps them out by making masks. such a nice guy.
Ahhh so Mono was stronger than “Thin man” because at the time Mono didn’t get some of his power taken away, so small mono will always be stronger. Crazy.
well, my theory is that when six was holding onto mono and when she looked mono in the eyes he drained some of his powers like she did to the lady in the first game. so older mono (thin man) lost his powers but used other people for theirs, so he could build the tower thingy. GOD I LOVE THIS GAME
When I first played this, I always made Mono hold six's hand as they went along. After watching the ending, when I had to redo parts to find the hats/glitches, I never made him hold her hand during the game again.
Literally me too😭 I feel betrayed by the creators coz I thought it was so adorable that they held hands. but I’m glad I have the little nightmares 1 dlc because the gnomes are so much cuter and I carry them around the whole game their so cute 🥹. Also if u want to get back at six for eating the run away kid and betraying Mono shine the flashlight in her eyes as long as u please in little nightmares 2.
Personal theory- Six actually lost her soul the second the thin man took her, as that is when we first see Shadow Six; the good, playful parts of six. This made her corrupt more easily and the music box gave her not just a sense of familiarity but reminds her of back when she was happy, which she can no longer experience outside of the illusion from the tower. She might have been in the tower for what seemed like an eternity knowing that time can be manipulated, so Six may have had eons to lose herself to the music and forget her childish side, and possibly temporarily forgets Mono. Which is why I think the reason Six then drops Mono is she no longer has any attachment to Mono. Looking down at him from that platform, she recognizes the face of the Tall Man, who he was one day destined to become. She sees him, and I think also sees Mono, but no longer has that feeling of attachment to him because of what the Tall Man has done to her by taking her soul. She then feels something new; the void inside herself, one that she has not had the time to even acknowledge as there yet, stirs. She has the drive to survive, and knows that she cannot exit the door herself, but she has seen Mono travel through the static in the past. She needs Mono to exit and survive, right? But no- she feels something travel through her and she realizes in that moment that she does not need her old friend-going-to-be-enemy anymore, but she now has the power to save herself. Keeping Mono around now would simply be a waste of energy, and an unnecessary risk seeing his powers, the tower's fixation on him, and who he was meant to be. So she takes the only reasonable course of action (to her) and drops him- not knowing that this is what starts the loop all over again. I think she gained the ability to take power after she lost her own soul, leaving a vacuum that needs to be filled in its place. It was being sated by the music box, which calmed her enough to distract from the knawing feeling, but once she is returned to herself and fills her need to survive, she experiences hunger for the first time. This then leads into her struggle with the sudden starvation throughout Little Nightmares 1, and her ability to take powers from people, as both of these things are just filling the void left by Shadow. I know that Six had already shown signs of psychopathy, such as her Indifference to murdering the Hunter, the brutal attacking of the bully, her breaking of the mannequins hand, her warming her hands by the Doctor's burning furnace, and I'm sure instances that I am missing, but she had always saved Mono and helped him out, and also seemed to be a little more playful- such as her kicking the ball in the courtyard prior to the school section. I think that she was a complex character, being a playful child in one moment and then a sadistic person in the next; being both someone who would save a friend while also only thinking of herself and her own survival first and foremost. //Sidenote and unrelated; I find it fascinating how this series handles hunger. Though there is almost always a source of food around, a lot of the corrupted folks don't seems to need to eat to survive, most notably how Mono does not starve though it seems he sits in his chair for years and years. This is also similar to how the viewers don't seem to have any self preservation or motivation to do basic things that would be required to survive, like sleeping or eating. This is interesting because it suggests that either those aren't necessary for most people to do to survive, which makes sense with how this series also handles things like body modification, or it implies that the Tower is sustaining the corrupted people under it's control to continue to utilize them for it's own purpose, like how the Lady does in a much more physical way with actually feeding her prey. Anyway, Mono is left alone stuck in what seems like an eternity, spending years and years alone sitting in a chair, unable to get out and surrounded by a false reality. I also thinks he looses most of his memories, as that is my only explanation as to why anyone with perfect foreknowledge would ever lose. He has no choice in the matter until a small boy lets him out, and Mono recognizes his little paper bag, and then attempts to seize his opportunity to prevent himself from ever being forced into the room in the first place, a place he may consider to be worse than death at that point. He starts with Six, the person who casts him into the depths of the Tower. This can either be done of malice and revenge, but I think is more desperation to stop the cycle. If Six is not around, then Mono can leave and live a life free from the tower. He can go far away and prevent Himself from ever being in his clutches. However; the Thin Man realizes that Mono is approaching the Tower and is deadset on saving Six after that TV interaction they have- so he decides that maybe by taking his younger self, he can avoid the whole ordeal and be in control of what happens, not leaving anything to his dumb younger self. This leads to the chase through the city and to the final confrontation- Mono fighting for his freedom and Six's life, and Thin Man fighting for their survival and escape from the timeloop. We all know how the story goes from there. No conclusion paragraph; Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.
also, everyone says the tall man isn't really trying to kill mono. But he does when u lose the game, when you touch him you cease to be. But maybe that's because of that whole theory about how if you go back in time and touch yourself you will die.
oh yknow i was thinking that she and her soul (because it was so unstable due to all of the hardships she's been through) separated once she passed through the television screen for the first time but your idea might make more sense good analysis; you're very well spoken and seem very intelligent :)
@@thekid7741 Maybe he targeted his younger self to save himself from Six. But since he found Six first in the room from where they hid, he just decided to get Six and trap her inside the TV dimension as, like, a payback for trapping him in there. Or if he intended to kill his younger self, it would still make sense that he was just trying to save himself. And maybe the time when Mono was able to reach the door is when Six realized Mono and the thin man are one and the same. Or it was when Six saw Mono without a hat or the mask on since the thin man's face were exposed and she probably found some resemblance. I hope that Six didn't let go despite knowing the thin man wasn't evil. I hope she let go because she doesn't know the thin man isn't evil and didn't betray her.
What's REALLY sad is Mono had to sit on that chair for years until he grew old. He also thought the world hates him that's why he wore a mask. The reason I can only think of on why he took off the mask near the end, is probably because he's confident he would be able to save the only friend he made. I also read in the LN fandom wikia that Six might've let go because she'd rather have Mono die by the tower than by her own hands. And honestly, I'd like that reason a lot more even though it is kind of selfish.
So technically the Thin Man isn’t evil, he’s just trying to break the cycle of eternal darkness and torment that the The Tower causing, which would stop The Tower from affecting realities
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 Mono doesn’t necessarily come back, it’s more of the Thin Man revisiting him to stop Mono from contacting Six, from what I can pickup
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 The beginning of the game and the ending are intertwined, via the door, which kind of reveals that Mono and his story is actually a continuous time loop
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 Now why Mono always wakes up outside the a TV I have no clue, as in a time loop there is no origin point, I would like to know a before but what if there is no before for Mono because he became the Thin Man? I’d like to say once he became the Thin Man it altered and removed all of Mono’s past making his origin waking up beside a TV in the forest
My Theory: Just when Six was pulling Mono out, she saw Mono's face since he had no paper-bag over it. And thus she saw the same face as The Thin Man, so she realizes what he would eventually become and lets go. But she also loses her humanity so maybe that and her realizing what Mono would become assured her decision to just let go.
That would make sense if it wasn't because mono becomes the thin man because he is dropped, if she hadn't dropped him he wouldn't have been a threat in the first place. Six has to have another reason, or maybe she just did it out of pure evil, who knows
So me and my girlfriend were talking about this. We were saying how this whole thing relies on trust, that trust breaks when Mono takes off his bag. We felt like that bag hid his insecurities, like you’re scared of yourself. So the more we thought about it, this nightmare just swirls around insecurities and betrayal. So when he removed his bag, he himself was trying to face his fears. His fears were facing himself, which it seemed he has done but when he tried helping Six, she recognized him as the monster who kidnapped her, the tall man. So when he broke the thing that meant the most to her, that’s when her trust fully disappears. That music box must have helped with her own insecurities, so they both have lost the thing that helped their insecurities. The betrayal adds more to when she drops Mono, she must have believed that he was her nightmare but in the end she only caused her nightmare. If she didn’t break his trust, he would have never became the Tall man. It overall just keeps happening again and again, and the same thing just keeps happening because of the choices they both make. An endless nightmare only they can change. This is just a theory!
I kind of agree. She let him go because he broke her inside. Six's only childhood WAS that music box. And what is the one thing Mono did? He broke it. He took it away from her! Notice how she offers the music box to Mono, sharing with him what she loves. That music. But he betrays her innocence and breaks the one thing she loves as a child which is the reason why she let go of him. She hesitated firstly but then proceeded with it. You then may say The Tower caused her to be attached to it. No! The Tower made her distorted and big. When Mono first finds Six, she was listening to that music box therefore it is her toy, her only childhood memory in the darkened, nightmarish world she lives in and so she drops Mono when he took that away from her. Six had no way knowing Mono was the Thin Man. It makes no sense. And if you say Six dropped Mono because she knew he was the Thin Man because of the resemblance it makes no sense because what happened the first time Six betrayed Mono ? There was no Thin Man the first time because Mono IS the Thin Man. And yes this is just a theory 😂
Dude play "end of the hall ,theme while figuring out why the tall thin man is not bad just scared over time because six knew mono was the thin man....she time travelled not knowing that the reason mono was the tall thin man only BECAUSE she betrayed him thinking that if she betrayed him it would stop the loop but it stayed in an endless loop of sadness and fear... like william afton... the tall thin man would be good if it wasnt for six(or micheal afton for fnaf fans) im sad because this song makes me feel so bad because mono waited, and waited, and waited, for a sight, for a sound, for .... something.....someone......... to come.... but no... ............ you have met a terrible fate havent you mono?
Notice how Six took a very close look at Mono before letting him go. It seemed that she recoiled her hand in total shock. This makes me believe that she saw a piece of the Thin Man (future Mono) within him, and put two and two together, making her let go of Mono in attempt to make sure that he did not become him. little did she know she was the complete reason he became such a monster.
I thought this too! It seemed to me that she figured out that Thin Man and Mono are the same or at least similar. She saw that Mono could become the Thin Man, hence letting his hand go cause she doesn't trust the Thin Man and therefore Mono. What she didn't know is that, that decision to betray Mono is what turned Mono into the corrupted person the Thin Man is. Had she knew, she would've probably stopped the cycle. :(
WoW i didn’t even think of this but it makes so much sense 😱 she did look surprised and dropped him like she « couldn’t believe what she just realized »... makes her less of an evil person but still... he did save her time after time so she could’ve Saint- least save him and talk with him after... makes me so sad for Mono 😭
It seems as though mono was in the signal tower transforming into thin man over many years even though that's not for certain. If thats true then because mono has such a gentle soul it took the tower such a long time to distort him but six became a horrific monster after only being in the tower for several minutes because of how dark her personality is
...you are right its not for certain, to us going into the tower it is one amount of time but to her being directly manipulated by Thin Man it could have been a lot longer, we dont even know how 'long' the battle between Thin Man and Mono is and it is LITERALLY a battle of time-spatial powers so with them clashing the 'time' at the end of the battle could have been 100 years later than the 'time' at the start due to their powers clashing...
I saw a comment that was a really good one and I just wanna put it here to show maybe why but here it is. The Glitching remains, as their name suggests, may be what remains of an individual after they get consumed or distorted by the Transmission, making them, essentially, souls. Considering this also happened to Six, it could also be an explanation as to why Six let go of Mono's hand, as she is without her soul, the one acting on her behalf is not truly Six, but her body, now only fueled by the resulting hunger that the emptiness that an empty soul brings, shown through the secret ending and the entirety of Little Nightmares. This is further supported by the fact by her Glitching Remain guided Mono through the subway tunnel and to the signal tower, as it was the soul that still cared for him.
That's because the tower is just using his powers im order to emit signals and to make use of him for a very long period before he gets old and weaker. That explains why the old Thin mono is weaker than its younger version.
Considering how everybody treated them up until this point. She was probably glad that they got rid of one of them, and decided to bask in this small victory.
Can’t believe six really dropped us, after saving her life multiple times, saving her from being a monster for all of eternity, and risking our life multiple times. At least Mono was able to escape torture by killing himself.
I feel like the ending of the game isn't just a "get over it" sort of thing. It actually makes the player themselves feel used and relates to modern problems for some people. This isn't to rip six off I understand her actions but it leaves that sense of loneliness mono so dreaded in the players hands, as if six isn't just a game character and youve truly lost a friend.

I literally almost cried watching the ending, it was so sad. Realizing that the TV man wasn't trying to kill you, but save you. It's do disappointing that Six turned out to be evil, but I honestly shouldn't have been so surprised based on the first games ending. A damn good game this was
Hear me out: When Mono finds Six, she is trapped, terrified, and clinging to her music box. Six lets Mono fall into the abyss at the end of the game, creating the thin man, who has grown up alone and angry - seeking revenge against the girl who has sealed him to this fate. When the thin man finally captures Six, he bans her to a nightmare as punishment... A nightmare in which she is trapped, terrified, and clinging to her music box... Exactly how he found her in the beginning of the game. Point being, the thin man knew exactly in what situation Six would feel the most scared and vulnerable, and he used this against her in order to exact his revenge. 🤯
If mono is the Thin man Six is The Lady hear me out if mono is the thin man six is the lady she has the same power to suck other people life like the lady and remember the ending of the little nightmare 1 she trap there forever as the signal tower require mono maw require six. And maw circle continue as six become the lady. u know in little nightmare 2 when the game start it show u what ur destiny what u gonna become like the mono gonna become the thin man so it show u at the start of the game like the little nightmare 1 it show u what six gonna become "the lady" at the start of the game
I thought that six betrayed mono because when she caught him, she saw his face for the first time... since he was always wearing a hat covering his face around her. So, she recognized him as the Thin Man that had tortured her while she was in the tv realm... and then let go.
If six dropped mono because he looked exactly like thin man, thinking she killed him, that was a no brain moment because if she thought they were the same person it would be smart to save him because she could think if she dropped him she can see that fall didn't kill him looking that he was alive when he chased her and mono earlier, so she would have to save him to protect her younger self.
@@WOODENCHAIR64 Or it could work the other way around. Six could've thought that if she saves Mono, he would eventually become Thin Man in that timeline. However, in her mindset right then it could've meant that if she killed Mono, Thin Man wouldn't exist.
What's worse would probably be Thin Man's dying moments since at that point he'd realize that he's repeating the same thing that happened to him with a younger version of himself who he then knows would do the exact same things he did and the cycle will continue. He'd probably lose all hope wondering just how many times he'd done the same thing before dying to his younger self.
I can just imagine him becoming a soul, watching helplessly as a spectator as Mono continues the cycle until the Thin Man's own soul is absorbed to fuel the Signal Tower
Actually, I kinda see it as Monos fault for the cycle, I mean yeah Six betrayed Mono but Mono is the one who is causing the time loop, ultimately he, after he grows up, goes back in time to try and hurt Six only to fail time after time again. Mono already knows this, he already saw the outcome, he killed his older self. And then became his older self. After being betrayed he chose to keep going back and keep the cycle going, if you really think about it, Mono is festering in hatred and goes back in time to fulfill his desire for revenge, even though he already knows how it will end.
I saw something that said there’s no good or bad here. It’s only kids growing up to be what they didnt want to become, because that’s everyones little nightmare.
I actually agree to that but heres my therory, so six and mono are just growing up, but why like this you ask, its because they have been trapped in a demention full of darkness,danger and death sometimes. And the thing controlling the world is the cell tower. And the start of being trapped is when mono meets hunter and six, cause six holds power of the cell tower but not fully.
@@TikisPlayhouse Doesn't mean they can't go back to little nightmares eventually though right? Or did they imply they straight up didn't want to do anymore little nightmare?
If I may just inject a little nuance here: Though the girl is sadistic, this personality trait doesn't truly manifest early on. It's entirely possible she thought killing was bad, despite living with a hunter. But her first indirect kill was when Mono grabbed the gun, and she connected the dots, thinking it necessary to use the gun to kill the hunter. Her first solo "kill" was breaking the bully. I would say this is done purely out of anger and a need for revenge. And the next moment when she finds manikin parts, she pulls fingers off as though to deal with past trauma. She might be imagining the manikin parts were from the bullies while she did it? As she is left alone with nobody to comfort her, she is basically left to think what she wants. We can't really blame Mono. He is just a child. He wouldn't know to be there for her. *This is where her sadistic side truly manifests.* *It is entirely possible she doesn't blame mono at all for what's happening to her.* At least at first. She is clearly afraid of Mono, a small detail that wasn't pointed out is how Six would back away from Mono after pulling him from the TV. But there's a small detail that I think is the turning point from when she full-on blames Mono for everything that happened to her and decided that betraying him was the best option. And being a bit of a sadist, she even turns back to feign a willing-ness to help Mono, and get back at him by purposely letting him go. *This moment I'm talking about, is right after Mono destroys the music box.* You see, Six doesn't immediately run up and hug Mono, or immediately try to escape with Mono. She stands there. Staring at Mono. As if connecting the dots. She might have been a monster for a short while, but it was still Six. Six still experienced Mono destroying her - albeit fake - music box. And in that moment I believe she realizes: "If only Mono didn't come save me, I could have been with my music box in the hunters house instead.." Then she's snapped out of it. (By Mono, from the looks of this video calling her. Though that could also just be the player using the "call" function) Feeling betrayed by Mono, she runs off without even looking back once. But just before she manages to escape, she puts in her plan to take revenge on Mono, and betrays him back. The story about Mono, I think, is spot on. He's just a poor soul stuck in a loop he doesn't realize. Though I would like to point out, that his powers could have come from the tower itself. I know, this is a bit of a twist, but you could say that Mono himself, even as a young form is in a way created by the tower. To go around collecting "glitches" as though he is a charging battery. Maybe it's a bit of a stretch, but *the tower clearly has a vested interest in keeping Mono's cycle going: Making Mono strong enough to defeat his future self.* About the masks, they are not exactly flattering. So I wouldn't say the rich bought them to hide their face from others as much as they bought it to hide their face from the masked lady in the first game. This idea is based on a tale where some king or queen had an ugly face and hid it with a mask. Either out of respect, or forced, the people who hung around her him/her had to wear masks so the king/queen didn't feel left out or stick out. Based on a scene in a dlc of the first game, when the boy saw the face of the masked lady through a mirror. (Her face became more ugly) And all the mirrors she had in her living area, we can also deduce that she was very vein and did not want to see the face of anyone better looking than hers (like the boys face) or else she will feel bad/become more ugly. So in the end, if anything, the people wearing masks are probably the ones with good looking faces. Wearing unflattering masks so the masked woman wont feel bad around them. Those who were already ugly did not need to wear masks. This vein masked lady would obviously want to be surrounded by uglier people to make herself feel better, and her mask is the only mask that looks flawless.
If Mono had accepted his fate and forgiven Six for betraying him he never would've failed to save her and never would've been the person to distort and imprison her. I'm not saying that Six is at all justified but it's interesting to think that he became his own worse enemy in the end because he couldn't' let things go. He tried to change the past and save himself, and also get some revenge, but in the end, his urge for revenge and his inability to forgive Six made him the Monster he wasn't able to save her from. I think both charters are flawed, Six is obviously more flawed but neither of them are truly without blame. If they had just forgiven each other, Six forgiving Mono for destroying her music box, leading her into danger and failing to save her, and Mono forgiving Six for betraying him, neither of them would've turned out like they did.
You know it could have been like a day cuz if you remember correctly six took that form in less than a day so I don't get why mono couldn't take and form in a day
@@cheesyconqueso1326 basically. qhen six dropped mono into the flesh thing mono sat on the chair and slowly becoming the thin man where mono first saw him. so basically when mono killed the thin man ha actually killed himself from the past.
I wouder if 6 even aged up since mono was stuck on the chair. Out of everything in bnb the world theres 2 things I hate and cant stand, 2 things that anger me to my core. Lies, and betrayal. And 6 betrayed by boy mono and betrayed the gnomes so I hate 6. Another thing I wounder though is are we gonna get a part 3 of the game?....Im mainly thinking of this cause the 3 basic shapes for character design are square, triangle and circle. Are we gonna play as a character in the 3rd with a circler head like just no hat or a helmet on to resemble the circle
Dam did not think of that all of the problems in the world in little nightmares was because 6 was selfish and want to be stronger then every one else it could be that the tower is not that strong only if mono get captured and it could be 6 was the one to bring it to this world in the future as a way to feed her hungry and become more powerful
@@UltimatesoldierX talk about the little nightmare 1,did you remember the hanging man?maybe it's mono...but its imposibble since the storyline is actually little nigtmare 2 then the first one
It's possible it means that the Thin Man knows he needs her and his younger self to break the cycle. If she died, it might not give the outcome we really want.
@@lspellslogic877 I mean if she didn't. The point is that they're in a loop, and the Thin Man knows it. The story is a circle, and he's holding out each time to stop himself. It's possible her death wouldn't actually do good, and keeping her alive is part of the heartbreaking part of the story, the hope Thin Man has for change. I'm hoping for a third game, unlikely, but hoping for the story to come to some kind of end.
it’s devastating how six has only one priority overall: survive. that drives her to mistrust, sure, but it’s clear that her deep seeded anxiety over other’s intentions also effects her actions, plunging the pure spirit she potentially had into the blank abyss of hunger. mono falls into an abyss of his own, the childlike kindness dysmorphing to become a resenting emptiness, assuming a role that drains everything else away. damn…what a game.
He made the comparison before the game came out in a previous video. The promotional poster has Mono in the front with Tall-Mono standing behind him and the silhouette of the tower makes it look like he has a bag over his head.
I wonder how many times this loop has occurred. Things could just as easily been prevented if Six hadn't left Mono behind. Does her name reflect how many times this cycle has repeated itself?
"Little Nightmares" comes from the fact that every time you die in the game and restart from the checkpoint, Mono is seen sleeping, shivering and waking up. He's having a nightmare. You die a lot, thus Mono has a lot of "little nightmares". This is also true for the first game.
Weird thing but...what if *we*, the player, are the antagonist. I know its meta but it makes sense- I mean- it was the same (kinda) in undertale it might be the same with this game? That we are the reason "Thin Mono" Can't win, because we think he's the enemy. And Mono believes us so he fights as we say. or im wrong :') I probably am-
@@beccabeckie6954 well if we are the main character of course we win lol 🤣 But the truth is thin man will always lose to mono cause six absorbed thin man power ( a little) that's why thin man will never win against young mono 👍
@XADIEL REYES remember he didn't absorb the thin man power, he absorb mono's power, and then left him in the tv world that's how six left the tv world and leaving mono in tv world alone, because of that mono become thin man there fore you can said that six absorb thin man power 👌 i think it's called time paradox
@@beccabeckie6954 Yea were basically a person who was tricked or manipulated into thinking we were doing what was rigth but then learns the truth that he’s been doing all kinds of bad and then is betrayed by the person who tricked and manipulated him/her.
@@sleepyboilogan5754 I really really wish they continue the series. Although they have a android version of the game with a backstory and a comic too, I want them to unravel in other series about how six got her ability of extracting powers from other people or how mono got his abilities or how did six ended up alone in the wooden house when everyone else gave up.... So many questions
i don't think so.. getting revenge on six isn't really right. because the older mono (thin man) was trying to save six from the younger mono. because in six's pov, mono is dragging her away from her peace and dream like when she was a monster six. she was protecting her musicbox which gave her peace and made her feel safe and the room wasn't a nightmare but a dream but mono broke it. and then by fear she lets go of mono's hand because she sees mono's face for the first time...
what he didn't talk about is that when six gets her yellow rain jacket some pop-up appears saying true colors and if you look up the meaning of the color yellow it turns out it means betrayal and danger and some other stuff
It can also mean happiness,positivity and optimism but on the other hand means cowardice and deceit (like you said).I saw another comment saying they searched Little Nightmares Characters and it came up with Six being a deuteragonist.The role can switch between an ally and enemy.
From how I see the story All of this can easily be broken with just a single small change. Such as Six not betraying Mono or Mono helping Six from being taken from his future self when they were hiding After all, many say the smallest things can have the biggest impacts. But I think as well both Six and Mono aren’t aware of what happens in the future. So there must be a way to warn their past selves from continuing the cycle
Maybe if Mono and Thin Man were in the same room and Mono took off his bag? A warning that she's working with someone who's trying to kill her for revenge.
i feel like Little nightmares 2 contains what children fears/nightmares like: loneliness, the bullies, detention/teachers/school, doctors/hospital, the darkness or what's in the darkness like the moving mannequins, the people from the pale city looked like it symbolized drunk/abusive parents/people, demons and even friendship betrayal. *lmao that's just how i think it is*
yeah i think the game focuses solely on the concept, kids. how they view things(where everything is huge to them), how they got influenced by their surroundings, how if not taken care of, they'll become the 'nightmare' themselves, etc.
Maybe the reason he gets taller from the signal tower is because it's feeding on his desire to have made that jump himself so it made him taller, but of course it's too late already.
I am prone to the possibility of mono being the Thin Man's successor than past self, because the Thin could have just killed Six if he wanted to change his fate.
This doesn't make sense, because what was the original story of the thin man becoming mono? What were they chased by in the original story? Its hard to explain but I hope you get what I meant
Thin Man goals was to save himself. But Mono goal was to save his friend. That explained why Mono was strong. It's because he was fighting for a friend he cares so much only then to get betrayed by none other than his friend, Six. No matter how many times Thin Man tried to change his fate. His love for his friend is what bested his future self.
The one thing really cool about this series is we get to see the different perspectives from different characters, and somewhat helps us understand the complicated lore that this game brings us, Along with us, the player Mono getting a somewhat emotional attachment to the only other seeming normal person in this series just for them to betray us, and to top it all off, the developers even add a "Hi" and "Hold hand" button.. Or maybe that was just me getting an attachment.
No one gonna talk about how Six warmed her hands while doc's corpse was burning? I mean I would've done the same but still.... *EDIT:* I leave for a month and this many likes? Thank you. Everyone saying it's morbid, creepy, and hows she's a sociopath but ignore that I just said I would do it too. It must've been really cold in the hospital after all, they are wet from the rain. Also I wouldn't have spared the doc.
i searched up 'little nightmares characters' on the google search bar and what popped up is six and her role in the 2nd game is 'deuteragonist', which means that she can switch between a supporting and opposing character to the protagonist, danggg six
A little theory is that six actually permanently absorbed a part of monos ability, leaving him weaker than before he fought his future self which could explain how young mono is stronger than future mono.
I don’t think she took any of his power she probably would have used it in little nightmares 1 I feel like maybe a part of him just didn’t want to kill his younger self
This also explains why Mono's powers were stronger than Thin Mans powers when they had fought. When six had absorbed some of Mono's power, Mono was left only a fraction of the power he used to have.
Nonononono six gave mono her power before she got kidnapped in order to save her but that makes mono stronger but the thin man is mono past self so mono is stronger but thin man is in a broken timeline with causes thin man to be mono future
The way I perceived it was not that mono wanted revenge on six, but was so upset and distraught about the fact that he was betrayed by her, that In a way it broke his mind so that he needed her. Hence why he goes and takes her and puts her in a room that’s full of her memories and a music box that makes her calm. Because if he wanted revenge wouldn’t he have hurt her? Like how he hurts his past self when he captures him?
Omg yes. If he actually wanted revenge, he would've just killed her right there but he didn't. Maybe he wanted her to suffer his torturings? I don't think because just like you said, he gave her everything that reminds her of her childhood and things that keeo her calm. If Thin Man wanted revenge, he would've known that Mono would come and save her again and again, meaning that he would have just killed her so that Mono doesn't have a chance. But still, he didn't kill her.
Yea no thin man wanted 6 to suffer beacause she dropped him in a fleshy world and he had to wait for years and suffering for years feeling of betrayal broke him to make him sad and angry he was depressed and he was weaker and he lost to mono because he didn't want to kill him cause he's trying to stop the cycle
@@fokof7210 if he actually wanted 6 to suffer, why would he give her the music box? Just so Mono can destroy it and make Six angry? If so, she gets angry and betrays Mono and the whole cycle keeps going. I get that he wants revenge but the way he got revenge on her seems.... sus
Somebody gotta give thin man a hug and a cheer-up. I legit feel so bad so him. I would become twisted, depressed and corrupted too, if I aged decades in a chair, after being betrayed by a friend. I hope this isn't the last time we see him in the franchise or else, it's gonna be unsatisfying to know he's gonna be anguished for the rest of his life.
Sadly, Mono might not ever return because of the time loop he’s in. The cycle of him running away from the Thin Man, destroying him, getting betrayed by Six then becoming Thin Man himself is an unbreakable loop. Unless the creators do end up doing something to make him return, he’s forever destined to become the Thin Man, because of Six. And the cycle will keep continuing endlessly.
The weird thing is 6 genuinely cared about mono, even in her monster form she was never hostile towards him until he broke her music box, each time he goes in the tv u can see her reaction the first time she seemed shocked and scared of him but throughout she became increasingly worried and pulled him out of the tv world and the final one where thin man appears she tries to get him to run with her but he’s transfixed by the tv, I think what drove her to leave him was him destroying her music box at the end, it seems like it’s her emotional support and shattering not only hurt her mentally but physically too as she sounds like she’s in pain whenever he breaks it.
Exactly. Everyone seems to ignore the fact that Six never had evil intentions towards anyone ever, at least not until the ending of LN 1. In VLN she helped the girl in the yellow raincoat and tried to save her. In LN 2 she was always worried about Mono's wellbeing; always pulling him off the tv and helping him throughout the whole game. And notice this: the part where Thinman came out of the tv, Six was desperately trying to make Mono run away, even waiting for him. If she had any apathy towards him or was as evil as the community makes her seem, then she would've just ran away and would've not waited for him a single second. So why did she drop him at the signal tower? Because she is a CHILD. Let me explain: when the Thinman pulled her to the singnal tower and kept her there for such a long time, she most likely realized he was Mono taking revenge on her. So, of course she dropped him. She, as innocent as a child could be (And not seeing the full picture as we do), thought that if she let him live, he would become the Thinman and ultimately cause even more damage. A child like her is not capable of thinking things through and much less think that her actions would be the ones to cause all of this mess to happen in the first place; she acted out of fear and immaturity, not out of hatred and vengeance. The same can be said about Mono, he is a child, and it was not his fault that the Thinman came to torment Six or him. He also did things out of fear, such as not helping Six when Thinman took her. But that's completely understandable. It really saddens me how the community keeps treating Six as a monster and Mono as a saint, when in reality both did good and bad out of innocence and fear, just like a child does (especially one that grows in an environment like the one in LN).
Me when I first saw Six: 😃 Me when Six ate a gnome that offered her food: 🙂 Me when Six ate the lady: 😐 Me when Six betrayed Mono: 🙁 Me when I realized Six is an asshole: ☹️
She does what she feels she has to do in order to survive, becoming a "little nightmare" in the process herself. I don't know if her being separated from her Shadow self has anything to do with it, but we saw foreshadowing that even with her Shadow she did what she could to prevent getting hurt. Mannequin hands come after you? Destroy whatever hands you can when you find them in advance. Dollhead in your direct line of sight? Snap their head off before they catch you. As a certain megalomaniacal flower from another series says, "It's kill or BE killed!"
@@sunnywhite196 that's just describing being an asshole with more detail. Everybody in this twisted world has come across pains, but it doesn't cause everyone to in turn make them. Six is a piece of crap
@Bunny Fluff Dabu I'm chill. 😁 The game is a "dog eat dog" world logic. Some people don't see it that way, and I'm not going to knock them for it. It's an awesome little series, morality of one of the characters notwithstanding, and I enjoy watching it either way.
The end of the theory would explain why we don't see the thin man again after six is turned into her monster form. He simply doesn't exist until her repeated betrayal
I feel like Six doubling back to catch him had emotional meaning. Her intention was to pull him up when she caught him, but she only changed her mind after catching him.
Indeed, it doesn't seem likely that Six somehow _knows_ she can absorb Mono's power, especially given she's had physical contact with him throughout, y'know, the _entire game_ (all those times they held hands and/or caught each other from a fall), so her suddenly being able to gain his power by touching him when there was no sign she could do it before (especially given she still couldn't warp through TVs on her own) seems like a deus ex machina. The paradox theory makes more sense: Rather than coldly betraying her friend out of self-preservation, Six realized that Mono was destined to grow up into Thin Man, The Signal Tower's reality-bending slave guardian, and after already failing to save her previous friend (Raincoat Girl from VLN) she sorrowfully lets Mono go. The way she holds her hands to her face after escaping even backs this up, as it almost looks like she's struggling to hold back and/or wipe away tears after fully registering what she just did.
@@mrreyes5004 This sounds like the most accurate theory for the ending. I do believe that Six regret letting her friend go after everything they’d been through. They’d been through a lot, and I can understand if she didn’t want to get into any more trouble, but those hardships they went through together created a great bond between them. They only had each other in this world.
So after Thin Mono catches Six, he traps her in the tower with all of her favorite things. Perhaps he thinks that if Six is trapped, Young Mono will be able to live on and break the cycle, but it could also be because he just wants his friend back, and wants her to be happy. Overall, I just think it's really sweet how when Six is trapped, she's not particularly unhappy, she seems calm and doesn't start attacking until Mono tries to break the music box. I'd like to think that's all because Thin Mono still does care about her, even if she betrayed him.
By the time mono becomes the thin man, six is thriving her life as an adult. She could grow into a monster herself, for all we know she could be the pretender, both of them could be stuck in a continuous loop and it’s fucked up. Mono is trying to stop his fate so the timeline won’t repeat.
@@Chief_066 that's wrong though he doesn't have the ability to turn people into monsters that was the transmission tower just affecting everything around it, I think six would also turn into a monster eventually if she never met mono, she just becomes immune to the transmissions later on because she took some of mono's powers
I actually think it was just to trap six because if she has the only thing that brought her comfort in her traumatic childhood (the music box) in her prison, she’s not gonna try to escape.
@@34口2fds蛋トマgs I think it is indicative of Monos personality, even thought he knew it was Six’s fault he was trapped and turned into the thin man, he couldn’t bring himself to kill her because he has a kind soul.
@@mokakola7777 What they have done was making a game with a very unclear story and setting. People like you play the game, come up with a theory for the story, you feel clever for coming up with the said theory and feel good about yourself.
Has anyone else noticed that the moment Six dropped Mono was shortly after the first time she got a clear look at Mono’s face. A face resembling the Thin Man, his older self, his paradox.
it seems that she actually hesitated to let go of Mono, she stared at him, thinking of what she's supposed to do, maybe she just thought if she let go the Thin man won't come back.
Yeah, she saw resemblance and felt threatened, because of Thin Man overpowering her. She honestly liked Mono, but after seeing his face, she saw the Thin Man...😓
@@benj7820 if this game is a prequel to the original it doesn't make sense because. in the secret scene six looks at a poster for the location of the first game (idk what itd called) meaning that six is planning to go there. the thing that confuses me is in the little nightmare 1 ending six left the place but why wohld she do that if he has nowhere to go if the city is run by mono/thin man and the only place was the place of Little nightmare 1 (still forgot the name of it). i hope it made sense. TL:DR if this game is a prequel why wpuld six leave the place where little nightmare 1 started if the city is being run by mono/thin man.
But here's the thing the cycle only starts over again because of six betraying mono if six didn't betray mono every single time since monos life is a complete loop that he's trapped in and can't escape from then she could stop him from ending up in the exact same room where he grows up to turn into the thin man. So wouldn't that mean she's the reason the loop keeps starting over again? I mean that's just something I got from it
@@rogaldorn4759or maybe the tower after distorting him is trying to capture his younger stronger self to increase its power, but the cycle always ends in six stealing some of that power
so basically thin man is just doing his best to free everyone but gets killed by his younger self... damn did not expect you guys but who cares this topic is lit i wanna hear some more
Six is the daughter. Mono is the father. Music box represents Six's childhood. Fathers are playmates to their children. But in order for Six to play with Mono, Mono has to wear a mask to hide his adulthood - when parents stop being adults and pretend to be children, that is when their children will play with them. Mono, pretending to be Six's playmate, helps her daughter through school, rescues her from being bullied by her classmates, protects her from an abusive teacher, and supports her through ill health. Sometimes even leading her by her hand, like fathers do. However, Mono has to face the fact that he is not a child but an adult - he confronts his adulthood and loses his child-mask as the result. Mono also realizes that if she keeps playing with Six, she will never grow up - one day she will no longer be 6-years-old anymore. Adults who are still children are an ugly thing to witness. Six will eventually become that ugly thing if Mono allows her to cling onto her childhood - the music box. In order to free Six from becoming that ugly thing, Mono destroys Six's connection to her childhood. When Six realizes that Mono is not a child but an adult, she stops playing with him, feels betrayed and discards him. After Six leaves him, Mono becomes an adult again over time. Though now, he has lost his daughter and is forever alone. Monophobia, conveniently, is the fear of being alone.
Omg- I never thought about it in this way I- that’s so clever! Still try a figure out how little nightmares one would come in in this theory. But I actually really like this thinking !
The most questionable for me is: if six betrayed mono because he destroyed her comfort and saw monos face because he was the thin man, who started it first? How did they end up there, who's chasing them? Like why she betrayed mono on the very beginning?who causes of all this? If you're talking about the radio tower that causes mutate to human turning them into monster does that mean before mono fall into dark abyss in radio tower does that mean that the ppl of pale city is still human before they turned in horrendous monster?..... The fact this is all six fault that turned their world to nightmare You know im a little observatory myself digging up into curiosity
I’m assuming future mono (the thin man) found a way to signal to present mono through the tvs. Everytime there were TVs mono would try to get to the door right? Every single time, six pulled him out and took away the advantage of him discovering that he was going to be the Thin man. the devs never really explained anything about who started it but possibly there was some way the thin man found communication to warn mono. This is just a theory
lets hope they make 3rdand mono gets to the maw and stops six and they become friends fr this time :D and the lady get replaced after her death with new monsters
I dont think she's a bad girl she's jus about her own survival and sees mono as a threat seeming all the dangerous situations they have been in together
I personally subscribe to the theory that six dropped mono after seeing his face and realizing he becomes thin man, she dropped him hoping that it would save him from becoming a monster without realizing it was the cause of his corruption
Oh my god you just made the part of the cycle where she drops him make a lot more sense. Like, six and mono are running from this this they think are trying to kill them, but six realizes that mono is thin man, so she drops him hoping to end it all. But then mono spends the rest of his life trying to get revenge but also not killing her because he somewhere in it realizes she wasn’t being all bad, but still feels betrayed. Before thin man(mono) can stop his younger self from thinking six was trying to kill her, mono grows up again and it all starts over.
@@thatdragon_fromspyro1219 well yes, but imagine if they had like you know real faces. Six could probably see enough similarities to figure it out Tldr, it would make more sense if they had real faces
@@S20_228_ Sorry for being a bit dumb xD but what do you mean by real faces? If you're talking about real faces as in like real life, then it still doesn't add up since a ten or nine year old kid would look completely different when they're old even in real life, the face would've developed and changed beyond recognition, if Mono is 20+ years old during that scene then it might be possible for Six to recognize him (even that would still be very hard) See if you can recognize your grandparents when they're around 10 years old, I certainly can't haha xD
I also believe a lot in this theory but i would add something and its that maybe when Thin Man took Six with him, since this TV's manage to be a bond between space-time, maybe Six was able to see the future and therefore know that Mono was the same person as Thin Man, so in an attempt to stop him from becoming a monster she "betrays" him
little theory: the reason as to why the patients freeze under the light is because they believe they’re watching a broadcast/tv screen - just like the normal viewers do when watching a tv
Yeah but the reason they freeze up from flashlights instead of TVs is probably because since they’ve been modified extremely, their sights probably have been modified extremely leading to them thinking it’s a tv
At the end of the first game we see Six leaving the Maw, what if hypothetically she went back to help Mono by separating his soul from the tower. We know that it can be done because it's what the lady does to make the gnomes
Six:*saves Mono* Mono: Holy crap thanks. Six: Yeah so here's the thing...*yoinks her hand* Mono: *Imma bout to break the laws of everything so you can have silly straw arms twenty years from now*
My theory: mono is stuck in a loop where he becomes his own monster, trying to stop himself from trusting 6 and also trying to make 6 suffer for her betrayal
So Mono makes Six suffer because she betrayes him, and she betrays him because she recognizes him as her tormentor. It's a never ending cycle of revenge. If Thin Mono didn't hurt Six, she might not have betrayed him. In the same way, if she had not betrayed him, he would never have become her tormentor.
I've also seen it suggested that the Tall Man continues to set up the betrayal in order to ensure his continued existence, which I feel fits the tone of the game better than 'he's secretly a good guy trying to help you'
same thats most likely what it is but hes targeting himself but he gets six instead because she was right there and tries to trap her but mono saves her again so it restarts the cycle again
I actually figured "Yeah sure, this is a harsh as hell world. Kids gonna be a bit messed up and you have no fat on your bones to retain heat. Warm up kiddo." For some reason that thought never tumbled over into "and therefore Six is just as much of a monster as everything else in this world" even though it just made so much sense.
I have been watching a LOT of Little Nightmares content, anf I have to say from all theories and explanations I have seen, yours are the best ones, and the way you show your line of thinking is very clear. Great video!
The ending hurt me... he was only trying to save himself from this nightmare and in the end it’s just a loop of misery
Same
:(((
it just means six is the real villain
In the first game there was a really long man that hanged himself off of a little chair.. I think it could be mono after realizing the loop would never end so it would be better to have just died. Idk, really dark to think about but it's just a theory
@@catcar5036 that was so sad :((
Awe the part where thin man and mono are fighting and mono takes the bag off of his head, it looks like thin man is reaching out saying “stop✋🏻, you don’t understand” trying to express he is trying to help.
exactly ! the more i think about it - getting captured by the thin man is more of a good ending but the game pushes to the bad ending instead.
But that hurts so bad tho 😭😭😭😭
Poor thin man
But what happens to mono after thin man grabs him?
He prob tries to communicate that he's not the enemy
Kid mono: "You were me all along?!"
Thin Mono: "Always have been."

Edit:i ment they thought he was evil so he was a nightmare lmao
I only really want a happy ending for mono and six; six's betrayal felt forced but I can only theorize as to why it was specifically made like this. Six during her time in the signal tower learnt of how the thin man came to be, thin man being an amalgamation of the past/present/future and I think the reason six became not only such an abomination but also a large one at that is that the signal tower rapidly aged her. The Time Loop theory still applies here but that six let go of mono to stop the thin man from chasing after her as I believe the thin man was never really defeated but further repelled back in time. Wherever mono goes the thin man has a connection to leap into but here is where things get interesting, I believe that six specifically went to the maw to steal said powers which seem to be able to steal the life force out of people (flesh) and that six will come back to the signal tower with her new powers to destroy the tower once and for all.
i feel so bad for mono. he was just trying to break the cycle and get them both out of there, but he’s never able to succeed :( i get so sad when he just stands on the chair and then sits down as he accepts his fate bc he looks so little and defeated
Maybe his last attempt to break the cycle was him hanging himself? Which could explain who the long man hanging in the beginning of the first game is
The sad part is 6 probably didn’t even want to kill mono but she thought she had to so she could stop the thin man
when you help someone you loved and cared, and then they betray you at the last moment 🥲
So in conclusion it’s all Six’s fault? Correct me if I’m wrong 😭
@@arlecchino.6582 sort of? she created the time paradox when she let mono go, which is why mono is forever trapped. so in that sense yes, but we also don’t know for sure why she let him go so the story is not entirely clear
the writers of this game is insane. One of the best games i played hands down
Exactly
The Best Game. Hands Down.
Very few games make me watch videos about what it all means. If I’m sitting there after I beat the game wondering. LN and Elden Ring are my top 2 lore
if thin man only comes for the flesh, then the doctor was trying to save people by transferring them to mannequins. he also helps them out by making masks. such a nice guy.
Oh my god that’s amazing
amazing
Thats actually smart
I wonder if the doctor burned the body parts, and then gave it to the flesh tower.
Ik he seemed like he really cared about his work
Ahhh so Mono was stronger than “Thin man” because at the time Mono didn’t get some of his power taken away, so small mono will always be stronger. Crazy.
Good point. Makes sense.
well, my theory is that when six was holding onto mono and when she looked mono in the eyes he drained some of his powers like she did to the lady in the first game. so older mono (thin man) lost his powers but used other people for theirs, so he could build the tower thingy. GOD I LOVE THIS GAME
Also this game is a prequel!! Bandi lied
@@sunnyasmr3607 That’s exactly what he said in the video?
I think younger monos will to save sasha was stronger than older monos will to save himself

this needs more likes....
Or his desire to save six is stronger than his desire to save himself no matter how many times the cycle repeats
the tower used monos power to control the city thats why ''thin mono'' is weaker and shifts like crazy when we meet him
@@tripdrakony869 thin Mono, not Six
Also throughout the time, the tower was draining most of his powers.
When I first played this, I always made Mono hold six's hand as they went along.
After watching the ending, when I had to redo parts to find the hats/glitches, I never made him hold her hand during the game again.
Same lmfao
Omg same
Literally me too😭 I feel betrayed by the creators coz I thought it was so adorable that they held hands. but I’m glad I have the little nightmares 1 dlc because the gnomes are so much cuter and I carry them around the whole game their so cute 🥹. Also if u want to get back at six for eating the run away kid and betraying Mono shine the flashlight in her eyes as long as u please in little nightmares 2.
The hand holding mechanic reminded me of Ico
I still make them hold hands
thin man was just trying to save his young self, and everybody

It was heartbreaking
@MOHAMMED YASEEN I always thought it she dropped him b/c of her darkside so she wouldn't eat him b/c of her hunger problems

The devs: "It's a sequel"
Me after getting the secret ending: "So that was a fricking lie"
Game Sequel
It do be pulling a dragon quest tho
It itsnt wrong if u think about it from the thin man pov, as it is confirmed thin man is mono, the main protagonist
If this is a sequel, then Six is dead, only the yellow coat remains.
Bruh I'm tired of people saying it's a prequel.
Personal theory- Six actually lost her soul the second the thin man took her, as that is when we first see Shadow Six; the good, playful parts of six. This made her corrupt more easily and the music box gave her not just a sense of familiarity but reminds her of back when she was happy, which she can no longer experience outside of the illusion from the tower. She might have been in the tower for what seemed like an eternity knowing that time can be manipulated, so Six may have had eons to lose herself to the music and forget her childish side, and possibly temporarily forgets Mono.
Which is why I think the reason Six then drops Mono is she no longer has any attachment to Mono. Looking down at him from that platform, she recognizes the face of the Tall Man, who he was one day destined to become. She sees him, and I think also sees Mono, but no longer has that feeling of attachment to him because of what the Tall Man has done to her by taking her soul. She then feels something new; the void inside herself, one that she has not had the time to even acknowledge as there yet, stirs.
She has the drive to survive, and knows that she cannot exit the door herself, but she has seen Mono travel through the static in the past. She needs Mono to exit and survive, right? But no- she feels something travel through her and she realizes in that moment that she does not need her old friend-going-to-be-enemy anymore, but she now has the power to save herself. Keeping Mono around now would simply be a waste of energy, and an unnecessary risk seeing his powers, the tower's fixation on him, and who he was meant to be. So she takes the only reasonable course of action (to her) and drops him- not knowing that this is what starts the loop all over again.
I think she gained the ability to take power after she lost her own soul, leaving a vacuum that needs to be filled in its place. It was being sated by the music box, which calmed her enough to distract from the knawing feeling, but once she is returned to herself and fills her need to survive, she experiences hunger for the first time. This then leads into her struggle with the sudden starvation throughout Little Nightmares 1, and her ability to take powers from people, as both of these things are just filling the void left by Shadow.
I know that Six had already shown signs of psychopathy, such as her Indifference to murdering the Hunter, the brutal attacking of the bully, her breaking of the mannequins hand, her warming her hands by the Doctor's burning furnace, and I'm sure instances that I am missing, but she had always saved Mono and helped him out, and also seemed to be a little more playful- such as her kicking the ball in the courtyard prior to the school section. I think that she was a complex character, being a playful child in one moment and then a sadistic person in the next; being both someone who would save a friend while also only thinking of herself and her own survival first and foremost.
//Sidenote and unrelated; I find it fascinating how this series handles hunger. Though there is almost always a source of food around, a lot of the corrupted folks don't seems to need to eat to survive, most notably how Mono does not starve though it seems he sits in his chair for years and years. This is also similar to how the viewers don't seem to have any self preservation or motivation to do basic things that would be required to survive, like sleeping or eating. This is interesting because it suggests that either those aren't necessary for most people to do to survive, which makes sense with how this series also handles things like body modification, or it implies that the Tower is sustaining the corrupted people under it's control to continue to utilize them for it's own purpose, like how the Lady does in a much more physical way with actually feeding her prey.
Anyway, Mono is left alone stuck in what seems like an eternity, spending years and years alone sitting in a chair, unable to get out and surrounded by a false reality. I also thinks he looses most of his memories, as that is my only explanation as to why anyone with perfect foreknowledge would ever lose. He has no choice in the matter until a small boy lets him out, and Mono recognizes his little paper bag, and then attempts to seize his opportunity to prevent himself from ever being forced into the room in the first place, a place he may consider to be worse than death at that point. He starts with Six, the person who casts him into the depths of the Tower.
This can either be done of malice and revenge, but I think is more desperation to stop the cycle. If Six is not around, then Mono can leave and live a life free from the tower. He can go far away and prevent Himself from ever being in his clutches. However; the Thin Man realizes that Mono is approaching the Tower and is deadset on saving Six after that TV interaction they have- so he decides that maybe by taking his younger self, he can avoid the whole ordeal and be in control of what happens, not leaving anything to his dumb younger self. This leads to the chase through the city and to the final confrontation- Mono fighting for his freedom and Six's life, and Thin Man fighting for their survival and escape from the timeloop. We all know how the story goes from there.
No conclusion paragraph; Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.
I loved reading ur ted talk. Maybe when he pulled her through the Tv, she couldn't handle it and that's why she started becoming "hungry".
also, everyone says the tall man isn't really trying to kill mono. But he does when u lose the game, when you touch him you cease to be. But maybe that's because of that whole theory about how if you go back in time and touch yourself you will die.
maybe the reason mono tries so hard to save six is because he thinks the reason she let him go was because he didn't do enough?
pop off
oh yknow i was thinking that she and her soul (because it was so unstable due to all of the hardships she's been through) separated once she passed through the television screen for the first time but your idea might make more sense
good analysis; you're very well spoken and seem very intelligent :)
The perfect definition of you either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.
@Tooges wdym. He targets you first when he first appears. If he wanted to break it he could just not take her.
@@thekid7741 Maybe he targeted his younger self to save himself from Six. But since he found Six first in the room from where they hid, he just decided to get Six and trap her inside the TV dimension as, like, a payback for trapping him in there. Or if he intended to kill his younger self, it would still make sense that he was just trying to save himself. And maybe the time when Mono was able to reach the door is when Six realized Mono and the thin man are one and the same. Or it was when Six saw Mono without a hat or the mask on since the thin man's face were exposed and she probably found some resemblance. I hope that Six didn't let go despite knowing the thin man wasn't evil. I hope she let go because she doesn't know the thin man isn't evil and didn't betray her.
Damn bro, you are deeper in to this than anyone of us.
Underrated comment
What's REALLY sad is Mono had to sit on that chair for years until he grew old. He also thought the world hates him that's why he wore a mask. The reason I can only think of on why he took off the mask near the end, is probably because he's confident he would be able to save the only friend he made. I also read in the LN fandom wikia that Six might've let go because she'd rather have Mono die by the tower than by her own hands. And honestly, I'd like that reason a lot more even though it is kind of selfish.

So technically the Thin Man isn’t evil, he’s just trying to break the cycle of eternal darkness and torment that the The Tower causing, which would stop The Tower from affecting realities
That makes sense but... How does Mono keep coming back?
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 Mono doesn’t necessarily come back, it’s more of the Thin Man revisiting him to stop Mono from contacting Six, from what I can pickup
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 The beginning of the game and the ending are intertwined, via the door, which kind of reveals that Mono and his story is actually a continuous time loop
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 Now why Mono always wakes up outside the a TV I have no clue, as in a time loop there is no origin point, I would like to know a before but what if there is no before for Mono because he became the Thin Man? I’d like to say once he became the Thin Man it altered and removed all of Mono’s past making his origin waking up beside a TV in the forest
@@Phantom_Jellyfish1 but I hope that answers that question somewhat,
My Theory: Just when Six was pulling Mono out, she saw Mono's face since he had no paper-bag over it. And thus she saw the same face as The Thin Man, so she realizes what he would eventually become and lets go.
But she also loses her humanity so maybe that and her realizing what Mono would become assured her decision to just let go.
The actual villain was six, thin man it was just the future mono tryng to sabe his past self from the betrayial and end the infinite loop
That would make sense if it wasn't because mono becomes the thin man because he is dropped, if she hadn't dropped him he wouldn't have been a threat in the first place. Six has to have another reason, or maybe she just did it out of pure evil, who knows
oh, i tought she dropped him beacuse he destroyed the music box
Cope because the thin man looks older nothing like mono, plus their had to be a first loop meaning thin man dint exist before making six evil
I agree. She clearly recognized the thin man in Mono and decided to rid him
So me and my girlfriend were talking about this.
We were saying how this whole thing relies on trust, that trust breaks when Mono takes off his bag. We felt like that bag hid his insecurities, like you’re scared of yourself. So the more we thought about it, this nightmare just swirls around insecurities and betrayal. So when he removed his bag, he himself was trying to face his fears. His fears were facing himself, which it seemed he has done but when he tried helping Six, she recognized him as the monster who kidnapped her, the tall man. So when he broke the thing that meant the most to her, that’s when her trust fully disappears. That music box must have helped with her own insecurities, so they both have lost the thing that helped their insecurities. The betrayal adds more to when she drops Mono, she must have believed that he was her nightmare but in the end she only caused her nightmare. If she didn’t break his trust, he would have never became the Tall man. It overall just keeps happening again and again, and the same thing just keeps happening because of the choices they both make. An endless nightmare only they can change.
This is just a theory!
It's a good theory
This is a pretty good theory ngl
Pretty good theory
This is the longest comment I’ve ever seen
I kind of agree. She let him go because he broke her inside. Six's only childhood WAS that music box. And what is the one thing Mono did? He broke it. He took it away from her! Notice how she offers the music box to Mono, sharing with him what she loves. That music. But he betrays her innocence and breaks the one thing she loves as a child which is the reason why she let go of him. She hesitated firstly but then proceeded with it.
You then may say The Tower caused her to be attached to it. No! The Tower made her distorted and big.
When Mono first finds Six, she was listening to that music box therefore it is her toy, her only childhood memory in the darkened, nightmarish world she lives in and so she drops Mono when he took that away from her. Six had no way knowing Mono was the Thin Man. It makes no sense.
And if you say Six dropped Mono because she knew he was the Thin Man because of the resemblance it makes no sense because what happened the first time Six betrayed Mono ? There was no Thin Man the first time because Mono IS the Thin Man.
And yes this is just a theory 😂
The tall guy was trying to show you, not kill you. He was trying to show you the dark truth, becahse it was you all along
If you got caught, the time loop stops therefore a death in the game 'coz the time loop shouldn't end coz "nightmares"
Just a thought
Also the eyes are symbols of truth
Dude play "end of the hall ,theme while figuring out why the tall thin man is not bad just scared over time because six knew mono was the thin man....she time travelled not knowing that the reason mono was the tall thin man only BECAUSE she betrayed him thinking that if she betrayed him it would stop the loop but it stayed in an endless loop of sadness and fear... like william afton... the tall thin man would be good if it wasnt for six(or micheal afton for fnaf fans) im sad because this song makes me feel so bad because mono waited, and waited, and waited, for a sight, for a sound, for .... something.....someone......... to come.... but no... ............ you have met a terrible fate havent you mono?

@@alexukasiewicz4371 my sis does i like meliodas
Notice how Six took a very close look at Mono before letting him go. It seemed that she recoiled her hand in total shock. This makes me believe that she saw a piece of the Thin Man (future Mono) within him, and put two and two together, making her let go of Mono in attempt to make sure that he did not become him. little did she know she was the complete reason he became such a monster.
oh, we both thought the same almost........ the way she was staring at him after he broke the music box....i feel like she knew then.
I thought this too! It seemed to me that she figured out that Thin Man and Mono are the same or at least similar. She saw that Mono could become the Thin Man, hence letting his hand go cause she doesn't trust the Thin Man and therefore Mono. What she didn't know is that, that decision to betray Mono is what turned Mono into the corrupted person the Thin Man is. Had she knew, she would've probably stopped the cycle. :(

It seems as though mono was in the signal tower transforming into thin man over many years even though that's not for certain. If thats true then because mono has such a gentle soul it took the tower such a long time to distort him but six became a horrific monster after only being in the tower for several minutes because of how dark her personality is
...you are right its not for certain, to us going into the tower it is one amount of time but to her being directly manipulated by Thin Man it could have been a lot longer, we dont even know how 'long' the battle between Thin Man and Mono is and it is LITERALLY a battle of time-spatial powers so with them clashing the 'time' at the end of the battle could have been 100 years later than the 'time' at the start due to their powers clashing...
I saw a comment that was a really good one and I just wanna put it here to show maybe why but here it is. The Glitching remains, as their name suggests, may be what remains of an individual after they get consumed or distorted by the Transmission, making them, essentially, souls. Considering this also happened to Six, it could also be an explanation as to why Six let go of Mono's hand, as she is without her soul, the one acting on her behalf is not truly Six, but her body, now only fueled by the resulting hunger that the emptiness that an empty soul brings, shown through the secret ending and the entirety of Little Nightmares. This is further supported by the fact by her Glitching Remain guided Mono through the subway tunnel and to the signal tower, as it was the soul that still cared for him.
YES
No, the tower seems to not have time applied to it
That's because the tower is just using his powers im order to emit signals and to make use of him for a very long period before he gets old and weaker. That explains why the old Thin mono is weaker than its younger version.
Doctor: *is literally cremated alive*
Six: Oh boy it's christmas, time to sit near the fireplace for warmth

Considering how everybody treated them up until this point. She was probably glad that they got rid of one of them, and decided to bask in this small victory.

Hear me out: When Mono finds Six, she is trapped, terrified, and clinging to her music box. Six lets Mono fall into the abyss at the end of the game, creating the thin man, who has grown up alone and angry - seeking revenge against the girl who has sealed him to this fate. When the thin man finally captures Six, he bans her to a nightmare as punishment... A nightmare in which she is trapped, terrified, and clinging to her music box... Exactly how he found her in the beginning of the game. Point being, the thin man knew exactly in what situation Six would feel the most scared and vulnerable, and he used this against her in order to exact his revenge. 🤯
That would make so much sense
Best theory I have read so far . It really makes sense .
Ohhhhhhh. Dude that makes so much sense. You are big brain my guy
If mono is the Thin man Six is The Lady
hear me out if mono is the thin man six is the lady she has the same power to suck other people life like the lady and remember the ending of the little nightmare 1 she trap there forever as the signal tower require mono maw require six. And maw circle continue as six become the lady.

Honestly i was expecting this knowing how six behave in the first game. I kept thinking "she's going to betray him isn't she" every "cutscenes" of six

I thought that six betrayed mono because when she caught him, she saw his face for the first time... since he was always wearing a hat covering his face around her. So, she recognized him as the Thin Man that had tortured her while she was in the tv realm... and then let go.
Hmm👀
If six dropped mono because he looked exactly like thin man, thinking she killed him, that was a no brain moment because if she thought they were the same person it would be smart to save him because she could think if she dropped him she can see that fall didn't kill him looking that he was alive when he chased her and mono earlier, so she would have to save him to protect her younger self.
Hmmm
@@WOODENCHAIR64 Or it could work the other way around. Six could've thought that if she saves Mono, he would eventually become Thin Man in that timeline. However, in her mindset right then it could've meant that if she killed Mono, Thin Man wouldn't exist.
Mr thin man probably said smth to six while she was captured
What's worse would probably be Thin Man's dying moments since at that point he'd realize that he's repeating the same thing that happened to him with a younger version of himself who he then knows would do the exact same things he did and the cycle will continue. He'd probably lose all hope wondering just how many times he'd done the same thing before dying to his younger self.
I can just imagine him becoming a soul, watching helplessly as a spectator as Mono continues the cycle until the Thin Man's own soul is absorbed to fuel the Signal Tower
The fact that six is the reason the cycle never breaks and couldve changed monos cycle, pisses me off.
@Shif7y yu
@Shif7y No one said anything about the raincoat?
Actually, I kinda see it as Monos fault for the cycle, I mean yeah Six betrayed Mono but Mono is the one who is causing the time loop, ultimately he, after he grows up, goes back in time to try and hurt Six only to fail time after time again. Mono already knows this, he already saw the outcome, he killed his older self. And then became his older self.
After being betrayed he chose to keep going back and keep the cycle going, if you really think about it, Mono is festering in hatred and goes back in time to fulfill his desire for revenge, even though he already knows how it will end.
@@earthsprite3820 ya but if 6ix doesn't betray him he doesn't turn evil so its 100% her fault

I actually agree to that but heres my therory, so six and mono are just growing up, but why like this you ask, its because they have been trapped in a demention full of darkness,danger and death sometimes.

They said this is the end for little nightmares. They're starting work on other projects.
If I may just inject a little nuance here:
Though the girl is sadistic, this personality trait doesn't truly manifest early on.
It's entirely possible she thought killing was bad, despite living with a hunter. But her first indirect kill was when Mono grabbed the gun, and she connected the dots, thinking it necessary to use the gun to kill the hunter.
Her first solo "kill" was breaking the bully. I would say this is done purely out of anger and a need for revenge. And the next moment when she finds manikin parts, she pulls fingers off as though to deal with past trauma. She might be imagining the manikin parts were from the bullies while she did it? As she is left alone with nobody to comfort her, she is basically left to think what she wants. We can't really blame Mono. He is just a child. He wouldn't know to be there for her. *This is where her sadistic side truly manifests.*
*It is entirely possible she doesn't blame mono at all for what's happening to her.* At least at first.
She is clearly afraid of Mono, a small detail that wasn't pointed out is how Six would back away from Mono after pulling him from the TV. But there's a small detail that I think is the turning point from when she full-on blames Mono for everything that happened to her and decided that betraying him was the best option. And being a bit of a sadist, she even turns back to feign a willing-ness to help Mono, and get back at him by purposely letting him go.
*This moment I'm talking about, is right after Mono destroys the music box.*
You see, Six doesn't immediately run up and hug Mono, or immediately try to escape with Mono. She stands there. Staring at Mono. As if connecting the dots. She might have been a monster for a short while, but it was still Six. Six still experienced Mono destroying her - albeit fake - music box. And in that moment I believe she realizes: "If only Mono didn't come save me, I could have been with my music box in the hunters house instead.."
Then she's snapped out of it. (By Mono, from the looks of this video calling her. Though that could also just be the player using the "call" function) Feeling betrayed by Mono, she runs off without even looking back once. But just before she manages to escape, she puts in her plan to take revenge on Mono, and betrays him back.
The story about Mono, I think, is spot on. He's just a poor soul stuck in a loop he doesn't realize.
Though I would like to point out, that his powers could have come from the tower itself. I know, this is a bit of a twist, but you could say that Mono himself, even as a young form is in a way created by the tower. To go around collecting "glitches" as though he is a charging battery. Maybe it's a bit of a stretch, but *the tower clearly has a vested interest in keeping Mono's cycle going: Making Mono strong enough to defeat his future self.*
About the masks, they are not exactly flattering. So I wouldn't say the rich bought them to hide their face from others as much as they bought it to hide their face from the masked lady in the first game. This idea is based on a tale where some king or queen had an ugly face and hid it with a mask. Either out of respect, or forced, the people who hung around her him/her had to wear masks so the king/queen didn't feel left out or stick out.
Based on a scene in a dlc of the first game, when the boy saw the face of the masked lady through a mirror. (Her face became more ugly) And all the mirrors she had in her living area, we can also deduce that she was very vein and did not want to see the face of anyone better looking than hers (like the boys face) or else she will feel bad/become more ugly.
So in the end, if anything, the people wearing masks are probably the ones with good looking faces. Wearing unflattering masks so the masked woman wont feel bad around them. Those who were already ugly did not need to wear masks.
This vein masked lady would obviously want to be surrounded by uglier people to make herself feel better, and her mask is the only mask that looks flawless.
If Mono had accepted his fate and forgiven Six for betraying him he never would've failed to save her and never would've been the person to distort and imprison her.
I'm not saying that Six is at all justified but it's interesting to think that he became his own worse enemy in the end because he couldn't' let things go.
He tried to change the past and save himself, and also get some revenge, but in the end, his urge for revenge and his inability to forgive Six made him the Monster he wasn't able to save her from.
I think both charters are flawed, Six is obviously more flawed but neither of them are truly without blame.
If they had just forgiven each other, Six forgiving Mono for destroying her music box, leading her into danger and failing to save her, and Mono forgiving Six for betraying him, neither of them would've turned out like they did.
It also resembles women that take no accountability and blame the man
six just dropped him like that and he's been sat there his whole life in that chair just cause six thought he was a threat
You know it could have been like a day cuz if you remember correctly six took that form in less than a day so I don't get why mono couldn't take and form in a day

@@lspellslogic877 I mean if she didn't. The point is that they're in a loop, and the Thin Man knows it. The story is a circle, and he's holding out each time to stop himself.

I'm hoping for a third game, unlikely, but hoping for the story to come to some kind of end.
it’s devastating how six has only one priority overall: survive. that drives her to mistrust, sure, but it’s clear that her deep seeded anxiety over other’s intentions also effects her actions, plunging the pure spirit she potentially had into the blank abyss of hunger. mono falls into an abyss of his own, the childlike kindness dysmorphing to become a resenting emptiness, assuming a role that drains everything else away.

"Little Nightmares" comes from the fact that every time you die in the game and restart from the checkpoint, Mono is seen sleeping, shivering and waking up. He's having a nightmare. You die a lot, thus Mono has a lot of "little nightmares". This is also true for the first game.
That explains why young mono is stronger than thin man, he hasn’t had some of his power stolen by Six yet.
YOOO FACTA
WAIT THATS KINDA TRUE
BROOO
THATS ACTUALLY TRUE WHAT
But the thin man can still come out television and teleport like mono does to rescue so therefore it's not true
@@Zane618 it could simply be six didn't take enough power from mono to prevent him from using his teleportation abilities
Everytime thin mono loses and young mono wins: *shit,here we go again..*
Weird thing but...what if *we*, the player, are the antagonist.
I know its meta but it makes sense-
I mean- it was the same (kinda) in undertale
it might be the same with this game? That we are the reason "Thin Mono" Can't win, because we think he's the enemy. And Mono believes us so he fights as we say.
or im wrong :') I probably am-
@@beccabeckie6954 well if we are the main character of course we win lol 🤣
But the truth is thin man will always lose to mono cause six absorbed thin man power ( a little) that's why thin man will never win against young mono 👍
@@beccabeckie6954 It's because Thin Mono already got his power sucked by Six and probably from the tower that's why Young mono is stronger..
@XADIEL REYES remember he didn't absorb the thin man power, he absorb mono's power, and then left him in the tv world that's how six left the tv world and leaving mono in tv world alone, because of that mono become thin man there fore you can said that six absorb thin man power 👌 i think it's called time paradox

If they create a 3rd game, I do want to see thin man (Thin Mono) breaking the cycle and fighting six
Ur right
I want to see Six save Mono. She now has the Lady's power. Imagine her returning to the Signal Tower to try and save Mono.
I want to see them destroy the signal tower
i want them to be friends again.....
@@xeacarons Right.
Imagine a little nightmares 3 where the plot is just mono trying to get revenge on six but this time suceeds
I wish. I think the creator said that this is the last game tho
@@sleepyboilogan5754 yes but the studio that makes the games said that they will continue to make them
That would be awesome
@@sleepyboilogan5754 I really really wish they continue the series. Although they have a android version of the game with a backstory and a comic too, I want them to unravel in other series about how six got her ability of extracting powers from other people or how mono got his abilities or how did six ended up alone in the wooden house when everyone else gave up.... So many questions
i don't think so.. getting revenge on six isn't really right. because the older mono (thin man) was trying to save six from the younger mono. because in six's pov, mono is dragging her away from her peace and dream like when she was a monster six. she was protecting her musicbox which gave her peace and made her feel safe and the room wasn't a nightmare but a dream but mono broke it. and then by fear she lets go of mono's hand because she sees mono's face for the first time...
what he didn't talk about is that when six gets her yellow rain jacket some pop-up appears saying true colors and if you look up the meaning of the color yellow it turns out it means betrayal and danger and some other stuff
Dang i thought the color yellow was happiness and joy, but i guess it was just the other way around :/
It can also mean happiness,positivity and optimism but on the other hand means cowardice and deceit (like you said).I saw another comment saying they searched Little Nightmares Characters and it came up with Six being a deuteragonist.The role can switch between an ally and enemy.
@@ohmykirsten In stage plays and such it means betrayel and greed, comes from the fact that hookers wore yellow shoes in the past
Oh wow didn't know that!
Yellow (I thought at least) is mainly know either as the color of happiness, or the color of anxiety or nervousness
Just a reminder that Mono's fear of being alone is called monophobia.
Dayum
Great now I'm crying even more
Dang...
I feel bad cuz I laughed
that’s why he kept trying to save six instead of leaving her.
From how I see the story
All of this can easily be broken with just a single small change.
Such as Six not betraying Mono or Mono helping Six from being taken from his future self when they were hiding
After all, many say the smallest things can have the biggest impacts.
But I think as well both Six and Mono aren’t aware of what happens in the future. So there must be a way to warn their past selves from continuing the cycle
Maybe if Mono and Thin Man were in the same room and Mono took off his bag? A warning that she's working with someone who's trying to kill her for revenge.
Another option is that Mono forgives Six for betraying him, if he does that he never leaves the room and captures her in the first place.
i feel like Little nightmares 2 contains what children fears/nightmares like: loneliness, the bullies, detention/teachers/school, doctors/hospital, the darkness or what's in the darkness like the moving mannequins, the people from the pale city looked like it symbolized drunk/abusive parents/people, demons and even friendship betrayal.
*lmao that's just how i think it is*
somthing I also realized is the tower turning children into monsters. Children growing up maybe.
daym that’s makes sense
yeah i think the game focuses solely on the concept, kids. how they view things(where everything is huge to them), how they got influenced by their surroundings, how if not taken care of, they'll become the 'nightmare' themselves, etc.
no you put dashes at the end of your sentence too much
what about the hunter?
So basicallyyyy, Mono just needs to learn how to make that jump on his own
Maybe the reason he gets taller from the signal tower is because it's feeding on his desire to have made that jump himself so it made him taller, but of course it's too late already.
Ye ig
i keep thinking, after killing thin man, mono can bend space and pull the signal tower to him. why can’t he just warp instead of jumping 😆
@@lisakanglisa I guess one way or another if six finds out mono is thin man, she'll try to kill him anyway
Hartik _ maybe you’re right. it’s just sooner or later :(
Mono: Wait, it’s all a cycle?
Thin Mono: Always has been
I am prone to the possibility of mono being the Thin Man's successor than past self, because the Thin could have just killed Six if he wanted to change his fate.
@@ucnguyenanh9414 Maybe Thin Man wanted Six to take his place as revenge but Mono got in the way, and starts the loop again.

This doesn't make sense, because what was the original story of the thin man becoming mono? What were they chased by in the original story? Its hard to explain but I hope you get what I meant
Hahahaha
Thin Man goals was to save himself. But Mono goal was to save his friend. That explained why Mono was strong. It's because he was fighting for a friend he cares so much only then to get betrayed by none other than his friend, Six. No matter how many times Thin Man tried to change his fate. His love for his friend is what bested his future self.
I think it was worth mentioning that Six calmly sat and warmed herself as the doctor screamed, burning alive.
That moment really creeped me out..

@@pessiescobar4707 You can see his face when he puts on the hat similar to Thin mono. Search up all the hats in LN2
The one thing really cool about this series is we get to see the different perspectives from different characters, and somewhat helps us understand the complicated lore that this game brings us, Along with us, the player Mono getting a somewhat emotional attachment to the only other seeming normal person in this series just for them to betray us, and to top it all off, the developers even add a "Hi" and "Hold hand" button.. Or maybe that was just me getting an attachment.

ME TOO LOL
i searched up 'little nightmares characters' on the google search bar and what popped up is six and her role in the 2nd game is 'deuteragonist', which means that she can switch between a supporting and opposing character to the protagonist, danggg six
A little theory is that six actually permanently absorbed a part of monos ability, leaving him weaker than before he fought his future self which could explain how young mono is stronger than future mono.
I don’t think she took any of his power she probably would have used it in little nightmares 1 I feel like maybe a part of him just didn’t want to kill his younger self
This also explains why Mono's powers were stronger than Thin Mans powers when they had fought. When six had absorbed some of Mono's power, Mono was left only a fraction of the power he used to have.
Makes sense.
This makes sense even though thin mono had strength in experience
WAIT A DAMN MINUTE :O
@@Mkrabs Ikr!?
Nonononono six gave mono her power before she got kidnapped in order to save her but that makes mono stronger but the thin man is mono past self so mono is stronger but thin man is in a broken timeline with causes thin man to be mono future
The way I perceived it was not that mono wanted revenge on six, but was so upset and distraught about the fact that he was betrayed by her, that In a way it broke his mind so that he needed her. Hence why he goes and takes her and puts her in a room that’s full of her memories and a music box that makes her calm. Because if he wanted revenge wouldn’t he have hurt her? Like how he hurts his past self when he captures him?
This makes me feel so bad for mono😔😔😔😔
Omg yes. If he actually wanted revenge, he would've just killed her right there but he didn't. Maybe he wanted her to suffer his torturings? I don't think because just like you said, he gave her everything that reminds her of her childhood and things that keeo her calm.
If Thin Man wanted revenge, he would've known that Mono would come and save her again and again, meaning that he would have just killed her so that Mono doesn't have a chance. But still, he didn't kill her.
Yea no thin man wanted 6 to suffer beacause she dropped him in a fleshy world and he had to wait for years and suffering for years feeling of betrayal broke him to make him sad and angry he was depressed and he was weaker and he lost to mono because he didn't want to kill him cause he's trying to stop the cycle
@@fokof7210 if he actually wanted 6 to suffer, why would he give her the music box? Just so Mono can destroy it and make Six angry? If so, she gets angry and betrays Mono and the whole cycle keeps going. I get that he wants revenge but the way he got revenge on her seems.... sus
@@ultimateinventor8424 he didn't give her the music box she found it
Somebody gotta give thin man a hug and a cheer-up. I legit feel so bad so him. I would become twisted, depressed and corrupted too, if I aged decades in a chair, after being betrayed by a friend. I hope this isn't the last time we see him in the franchise or else, it's gonna be unsatisfying to know he's gonna be anguished for the rest of his life.
Not everyone’s story has a happy ending ;-;
Eternal suffering may be his fate
Sadly, Mono might not ever return because of the time loop he’s in. The cycle of him running away from the Thin Man, destroying him, getting betrayed by Six then becoming Thin Man himself is an unbreakable loop.
Unless the creators do end up doing something to make him return, he’s forever destined to become the Thin Man, because of Six. And the cycle will keep continuing endlessly.
The weird thing is 6 genuinely cared about mono, even in her monster form she was never hostile towards him until he broke her music box, each time he goes in the tv u can see her reaction the first time she seemed shocked and scared of him but throughout she became increasingly worried and pulled him out of the tv world and the final one where thin man appears she tries to get him to run with her but he’s transfixed by the tv, I think what drove her to leave him was him destroying her music box at the end, it seems like it’s her emotional support and shattering not only hurt her mentally but physically too as she sounds like she’s in pain whenever he breaks it.
That theory seems so true to be part of its canon lore
Exactly. Everyone seems to ignore the fact that Six never had evil intentions towards anyone ever, at least not until the ending of LN 1.
In VLN she helped the girl in the yellow raincoat and tried to save her. In LN 2 she was always worried about Mono's wellbeing; always pulling him off the tv and helping him throughout the whole game. And notice this: the part where Thinman came out of the tv, Six was desperately trying to make Mono run away, even waiting for him. If she had any apathy towards him or was as evil as the community makes her seem, then she would've just ran away and would've not waited for him a single second.
So why did she drop him at the signal tower? Because she is a CHILD. Let me explain: when the Thinman pulled her to the singnal tower and kept her there for such a long time, she most likely realized he was Mono taking revenge on her. So, of course she dropped him. She, as innocent as a child could be (And not seeing the full picture as we do), thought that if she let him live, he would become the Thinman and ultimately cause even more damage. A child like her is not capable of thinking things through and much less think that her actions would be the ones to cause all of this mess to happen in the first place; she acted out of fear and immaturity, not out of hatred and vengeance. The same can be said about Mono, he is a child, and it was not his fault that the Thinman came to torment Six or him. He also did things out of fear, such as not helping Six when Thinman took her. But that's completely understandable.
It really saddens me how the community keeps treating Six as a monster and Mono as a saint, when in reality both did good and bad out of innocence and fear, just like a child does (especially one that grows in an environment like the one in LN).
Me when I first saw Six: 😃
Me when Six ate a gnome that offered her food: 🙂
Me when Six ate the lady: 😐
Me when Six betrayed Mono: 🙁
Me when I realized Six is an asshole: ☹️
She does what she feels she has to do in order to survive, becoming a "little nightmare" in the process herself. I don't know if her being separated from her Shadow self has anything to do with it, but we saw foreshadowing that even with her Shadow she did what she could to prevent getting hurt.

@@aqwa_1091 ur pfp and name says alot
Na I still like her
I still love her tho
I feel like Six doubling back to catch him had emotional meaning. Her intention was to pull him up when she caught him, but she only changed her mind after catching him.
Indeed, it doesn't seem likely that Six somehow _knows_ she can absorb Mono's power, especially given she's had physical contact with him throughout, y'know, the _entire game_ (all those times they held hands and/or caught each other from a fall), so her suddenly being able to gain his power by touching him when there was no sign she could do it before (especially given she still couldn't warp through TVs on her own) seems like a deus ex machina.
The paradox theory makes more sense: Rather than coldly betraying her friend out of self-preservation, Six realized that Mono was destined to grow up into Thin Man, The Signal Tower's reality-bending slave guardian, and after already failing to save her previous friend (Raincoat Girl from VLN) she sorrowfully lets Mono go. The way she holds her hands to her face after escaping even backs this up, as it almost looks like she's struggling to hold back and/or wipe away tears after fully registering what she just did.
@@mrreyes5004 This sounds like the most accurate theory for the ending. I do believe that Six regret letting her friend go after everything they’d been through. They’d been through a lot, and I can understand if she didn’t want to get into any more trouble, but those hardships they went through together created a great bond between them. They only had each other in this world.
U know sometimes i like to think that the little nightmares are just movies and behind the scenes Mono and Six are actually very great friends
@Ryan Bell Nope.
@@mrreyes5004 He’s only “destined” to be thin man because of her decision to drop him which creates more problems for everyone and everything.
So after Thin Mono catches Six, he traps her in the tower with all of her favorite things.
Perhaps he thinks that if Six is trapped, Young Mono will be able to live on and break the cycle, but it could also be because he just wants his friend back, and wants her to be happy.
Overall, I just think it's really sweet how when Six is trapped, she's not particularly unhappy, she seems calm and doesn't start attacking until Mono tries to break the music box. I'd like to think that's all because Thin Mono still does care about her, even if she betrayed him.
Yeah, I think that too, but he did turn her into a monster like him so they were equal
Now this is sad
By the time mono becomes the thin man, six is thriving her life as an adult. She could grow into a monster herself, for all we know she could be the pretender, both of them could be stuck in a continuous loop and it’s fucked up. Mono is trying to stop his fate so the timeline won’t repeat.
@@Chief_066 that's wrong though he doesn't have the ability to turn people into monsters that was the transmission tower just affecting everything around it, I think six would also turn into a monster eventually if she never met mono, she just becomes immune to the transmissions later on because she took some of mono's powers
I actually think it was just to trap six because if she has the only thing that brought her comfort in her traumatic childhood (the music box) in her prison, she’s not gonna try to escape.
the story has one flaw- thinman could've simply killed Six to end the cycle instead of imprisoning her

same
Yeah like getting addicted to tv and even killing just to look at it
Does this mean that everyone has to move on at some point and not think about the past whatever happened
Six is the daughter. Mono is the father.
Music box represents Six's childhood.
Fathers are playmates to their children. But in order for Six to play with Mono, Mono has to wear a mask to hide his adulthood - when parents stop being adults and pretend to be children, that is when their children will play with them.
Mono, pretending to be Six's playmate, helps her daughter through school, rescues her from being bullied by her classmates, protects her from an abusive teacher, and supports her through ill health. Sometimes even leading her by her hand, like fathers do.
However, Mono has to face the fact that he is not a child but an adult - he confronts his adulthood and loses his child-mask as the result.
Mono also realizes that if she keeps playing with Six, she will never grow up - one day she will no longer be 6-years-old anymore. Adults who are still children are an ugly thing to witness. Six will eventually become that ugly thing if Mono allows her to cling onto her childhood - the music box.
In order to free Six from becoming that ugly thing, Mono destroys Six's connection to her childhood. When Six realizes that Mono is not a child but an adult, she stops playing with him, feels betrayed and discards him.
After Six leaves him, Mono becomes an adult again over time. Though now, he has lost his daughter and is forever alone.
Monophobia, conveniently, is the fear of being alone.

Omg- I never thought about it in this way I- that’s so clever! Still try a figure out how little nightmares one would come in in this theory. But I actually really like this thinking !
The most questionable for me is: if six betrayed mono because he destroyed her comfort and saw monos face because he was the thin man, who started it first? How did they end up there, who's chasing them? Like why she betrayed mono on the very beginning?who causes of all this? If you're talking about the radio tower that causes mutate to human turning them into monster does that mean before mono fall into dark abyss in radio tower does that mean that the ppl of pale city is still human before they turned in horrendous monster?.....
The fact this is all six fault that turned their world to nightmare
You know im a little observatory myself digging up into curiosity
I’m assuming future mono (the thin man) found a way to signal to present mono through the tvs. Everytime there were TVs mono would try to get to the door right? Every single time, six pulled him out and took away the advantage of him discovering that he was going to be the Thin man. the devs never really explained anything about who started it but possibly there was some way the thin man found communication to warn mono.

The thought of this being a prequel makes so much sense. When you said that, It all started to make sense to me.
I personally subscribe to the theory that six dropped mono after seeing his face and realizing he becomes thin man, she dropped him hoping that it would save him from becoming a monster without realizing it was the cause of his corruption
Oh my god you just made the part of the cycle where she drops him make a lot more sense. Like, six and mono are running from this this they think are trying to kill them, but six realizes that mono is thin man, so she drops him hoping to end it all. But then mono spends the rest of his life trying to get revenge but also not killing her because he somewhere in it realizes she wasn’t being all bad, but still feels betrayed. Before thin man(mono) can stop his younger self from thinking six was trying to kill her, mono grows up again and it all starts over.

If you're talking about real faces as in like real life, then it still doesn't add up since a ten or nine year old kid would look completely different when they're old even in real life, the face would've developed and changed beyond recognition, if Mono is 20+ years old during that scene then it might be possible for Six to recognize him (even that would still be very hard)
See if you can recognize your grandparents when they're around 10 years old, I certainly can't haha xD
I also believe a lot in this theory but i would add something and its that maybe when Thin Man took Six with him, since this TV's manage to be a bond between space-time, maybe Six was able to see the future and therefore know that Mono was the same person as Thin Man, so in an attempt to stop him from becoming a monster she "betrays" him

At the end of the first game we see Six leaving the Maw, what if hypothetically she went back to help Mono by separating his soul from the tower. We know that it can be done because it's what the lady does to make the gnomes
Six:*saves Mono*
Mono: Holy crap thanks.
Six: Yeah so here's the thing...*yoinks her hand*
Mono: *Imma bout to break the laws of everything so you can have silly straw arms twenty years from now*
"her"
lol
Lol🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
His
@@Nas_ir no im sticking to my guns. Its her
My theory: mono is stuck in a loop where he becomes his own monster, trying to stop himself from trusting 6 and also trying to make 6 suffer for her betrayal
So Mono makes Six suffer because she betrayes him, and she betrays him because she recognizes him as her tormentor. It's a never ending cycle of revenge. If Thin Mono didn't hurt Six, she might not have betrayed him. In the same way, if she had not betrayed him, he would never have become her tormentor.
I've also seen it suggested that the Tall Man continues to set up the betrayal in order to ensure his continued existence, which I feel fits the tone of the game better than 'he's secretly a good guy trying to help you'
same thats most likely what it is but hes targeting himself but he gets six instead because she was right there and tries to trap her but mono saves her again so it restarts the cycle again
If either of the two managed at some point to deafead their dark self the cycle would end.
Maybe the future your now in is not changeable mono and worlds fate wouldnt be changeble even if you tried your best its always gonna be that result
the doctor dying on fire*

At that moment I knew that she was twisted
@@anythingelse3153 It wasn't the moment she pounced on the bully and brutalized him to death?
@@quartztoe4285 I did found that a bit odd, but I thought oh okay you just want revenge. But yes definitely a red flag
So toasty 😊
I actually figured "Yeah sure, this is a harsh as hell world. Kids gonna be a bit messed up and you have no fat on your bones to retain heat. Warm up kiddo."
For some reason that thought never tumbled over into "and therefore Six is just as much of a monster as everything else in this world" even though it just made so much sense.
I have been watching a LOT of Little Nightmares content, anf I have to say from all theories and explanations I have seen, yours are the best ones, and the way you show your line of thinking is very clear. Great video!
