PAIN
Kagerou Project fandom (or anyone who’s ever been in Kagepro fandom) in a nutshell
Hi, straying from my usual content to say
Kagepro:
Azami and Tsukihiko are the OG Alt bisexual gf and her skinny gamer bf
Except man’s such a simp he said Minecraft but make it irl and built her a whole house
I love them
*kicks down door*
It’s my tumblr and I get to choose my content
So here we go
Assigning the Kagerou Project Songs to each group from Project Sekai
(VBS gets 1 less from everyone else because they have Yobanashi Deceive already)
(Songs are in no order)
Lost Time Memory: The style of songs I’ve been seeing in Leo is this kind of indie rock, songs with a lot of instrumentals and guitar, along with being on a more darker side. I feel like Lost Time Memory perfectly fits this description and wouldn’t be surprised if it gets assigned to them in the future.
Headphone Actor: Like LTM, this song fits the aesthetic of indie rock to a T, but I feel like the lyrics fit as well. With the song being about running towards a goal, discovering feelings, and: well honestly I don’t have anything else I just feel like the style fits and I like the song leave me alone
Toumei Answer: Another one I can’t really explain, it’s just a gut feeling. There’s not much I can put here, I just... I don’t know man I just feel like this song goes here
Summertime Record: I love summertime record, way to much, and I love the voices of Leo/Need sooo.... (Jkjk this isn’t biasy I swear. Plus my favorite is wXs but no one asked), yet again, I feel like it’s the vibes here that makes me put this song here. Just the idea that the ending being with the beginning, if that makes since, I just... I goes here.
(There was going to be only 4 for each but I feel like I should give Fireworks at the Summers End an honorable mention here)
Kiseragi Attention:wow look at that the idol characters song goes in the idol group, who would have guessed. Well you know what, it fits. A group of girls who quit being idols, a song about a girl who’s an idol and hates the attention, It just feels perfect. Not to mention the vibes are fantastic
Yuukei Yesterday: listen, out of context, this song is nothing more than a cute song about a Tsundere wanting to tell her crush she likes him. And I feel like the up-beat vibes fit in with MORE MORE JUMP perfectly :) Also I mean- Airi-
Imagination Forest: I was debating putting in this song, with it being so plot heavy and since project Sekai shortens the songs, it may feel weird, especially since the song itself has very different vibes than the other MORE MORE JUMP songs, but I feel like if cut right, then it could be seen as a simple cute story song. Now I don’t think this would be a song to get a PV or be an Event Song, but more one of those songs that just appear in the shop that you vibe to occasionally.
Lost Day Hour: or as I call it, “summertime record but I don’t want to cry as hard.” I feel like this song is one of those where it sounds so chirpy and the music doesn’t fit the lyrics, and I feel like that works so well with MORE MORE JUMP, so uh yeah it’s here now. Shut up I never said this was going to be a good list.
Outer Science: I know, shocking. Okay okay sorry, I know a lot of people have said this before, but I mean come on. Outer Science in VBS, please. Let them scream the womb. Though my one thing is I don’t know who would sing it. I can’t imagine any VS other than IA singing this song, but I don’t want it to feel to similar to Yobanashi Deceive. Maybe a girls solo? Maybe a group song? I don’t know but I know it needs in.
Kagerou Days: Yes VBS gets both iconic songs I’m sorry but where else could a song about death go??/j I feel like VBS has the right vocal range to do this song justice, maybe make it into a duet for both Hibiya and Hiyori, though I don’t know if this is the type of song to get a MV or not, because while it technically has an official one, the fan made one is more well known and the official one could distract the player with the fast text.
Children Record: I have 3 main reasons. 1) VBS is a mixed gender group and so the lyrics “boys and girls.” Don’t feel as weird. 2) A rock-ish song about a group of people with powers with an aesthetic of street art and graffiti??? 3) Daze isn’t an option so this is my second best choice. (I would totally make them do Daze, they could do Daze so well and I would kill for it, hOwEvEr I don’t know how much it counts because it was originally sung by MARiA and the IA version is only a cover.
There’s no 4. They have Yobanashi Deceive
Otsukimi Recital: I was struggling with wXs, with both the group and Kagerou Project having such different vibes that it was hard to figure out what would go here, but I feel like this song is one that definitely belongs. While yes, it’s an idol song, it has the right about of cheerful vibes, those of wanting to make people happy, that I feel like it fits right in with the bright wonderland group.
Konoha’s State of the World: Okay listen, I know this song is really hecking dark, but you know what? wXs has some dark songs, so they can have some Konoha No Sekaijijou thank you very much. I feel like this could be a a Tenma, Rui and KAITO song, simply because I can’t see any of the girls singing this song.
Shonen Brave: Listen, a song about a scared boy who finds courage in helping a scared girl, thats what this song is (leaving out the whole eye powers and dying and medusa bits), and I feel like this could be a Rui and Nene song, since Rui had made the Nenerobo since she couldn’t talk to people, and the song is about finding courage, but then again I’m not all to familiar with the story so I could be wrong.
Imaginary Reload, Shissou World, or My Funny Weekend: I feel like either one of these songs has potential to be a wXs song, but I don’t really have any reasoning behind it, hense why there are 2 songs here but nothing else. Oops
Jinzou Enemy: This song just screams 25-ji to me. The dark yet somehow hopeful lyrics, the dark aesthetic, I feel like this is the second most fitting song for this group (we’ll get to the first in a bit), and I also feel like this song is criminally underrated, so having it be reborn and covered would just be amazing in its own right.
Additional Memory: Now the most fitting song for 25-ji is Additional Memory and I will not be taking criticism. The lyrics of Additional Memory talk about being trapped in some unknown world, being lost angry confused, and living with regrets. I am sorry but if that doesn’t just scream 25-ji then uh well I don’t know the story so don’t tell me and ruin my fun. I feel like the Daze and their Sekai have a lit of similarities in just vibes alone, so having a song that takes place in the daze feels just given. Please let them sing Additional Memory.
Ayano’s Theory of Happiness: Okay okay, I know this sounds weird. A song about sisterhood where only one character is a sibling and their relationship doesn’t mirror Ayano’s and her siblings at all, but here me out. I feel like them singing about these kinds of connections, songs about self sacrifice, regret and dreams, I just feel like it fits. I really have nothing else to say here.
I know I already used Lost Time Memory but you know what screw it I’m using it twice because I absolutely can. I feel like if Shintaro were to go in any group, he would be put right into 25-ji despite being a male and I think his song deserves to be mentioned here. I really don’t have much to say, other than Kanade is also a Hikikomori so she should get center.
Not really a 5, just briefly mentioning Marry’s fictional world here because I feel like I absolutely should.
Afterwords: This is 100 percent not a “songs that should be in project sekai” post. As you could see, a lot of the songs I had mentioned were based on vibes alone and don’t really fit. This post was simply me sorting Kagepro songs into Project Sekai because I thought it would be fun, and needed somewhere to put these thoughts I’ve been having. In conclusion, let 25-ji Night Chord de sing Additional Memory.
Okay okay
I know this page is dead but the new Children Record MV came out today and I want to talk about it
Apologies for any spelling errors
CW Warning though if your reading this you probably know what you’re getting into
First thing I want to talk about is the replacement of IA with Miku, or at least that what it sounds like. I know that Jin switched record companies but this use is Miku makes this new era feel so, real. This is a re:boot. It’s a new age for the story, and the characters within. And just like with the first Children Record, this is its anthem. And I expect more changes with the songs and the stories they originally told as well.
The story is made to be interpreted, and I believe that there are two different stories on the same coin.
Okay now I want to talk about this
The Stay and Go
Most likey speaking of Shintaro’s suicide. Deleting ENE leads to his death. Does he choose to stay and fight with the Dan or go, escape, run away.
Shintaro’s story is one of escapism. One of wanting to get out of their own head, escape the world and run away and hide.
It’s only when he can face his fears head on that the story can progress and an ending can be made.
The video uses different landscapes and videos that project realism, going as far as actual footage of cities and buildings.
Kagerou Project is about characters and relationships. Characters meant to feel real. Strip away the eyes and they are people just like you and me. They aren’t meant to be idealized, they are supposed to be flawed. Supposed to make mistakes, do horrible things or do great things because they’re people.
They live in a world just like us and just want to survive just like us.
A commonly mentioned part of the lore of the story is that these people were drawn together. Because of Marry’s decision, from birth these children were fated to come together, meet, and die.
We don’t really see them as kids that much. With the exception of the original Mekakushi Dan and Momo and Shintaro in some routes. Other than that, we are simply told what they were like as kids, or not told at all.
That’s why I find this imagery so fascinating. Before they knew one another. Before some had their powers, others unaware that anything was wrong after their deaths, they were still all called together. They can’t escape their friendship, they always will be the Mekadan, whether they choose it or not.
It’s the Children Record
A story of kids young and old who just want to feel normal again.
“Boys and girls, face forward! Hope we can be found even in this wavering heat.”
There’s more I want to talk about
Like how the use of Manga Searu gives clearing eyes a true face in the story instead of just associating him with Konoha, clearing eyes is the personification of not wanting to let go, let him be seen as that.
Or about the use of the different time lines being tied together, with references to other MV’s, manga, and novels
But this is getting long I can’t type and there’s a lot of things I want to say but don’t know how to say them so
Expect a sequel. But for now
This was amazing
I know he meant it as in “hot.”- August 15th stuff
But I still want that printed in a tee shirt
Oh heck man
I was hoping for some Luka but man I do love me some V Flower
Man I am so excited for this, hearing new voices with these already loved songs. What a time to be alive :)
How harutaka happened 100% canon Jin told me so
— —
Takane: man Haruka is cute but we just got out of a traumatic event I don’t want to burden him with my feelings especially since he is going through so many mental changes at the moment
Haruka: takane!! Look Ayano taught me how to make a crane! It’s super cool so I named it ENE cause ENE is super cool!
Takane: oh my god that is so adorable I love you
Haruka: . . .
Takane: . . Oh shi-
Momo Kisaragi is the Bo Burnham of the kagerou project universe
They are the same person
That is all
Hello Tumblr
Ruinene is Setomarry with sarcasm
Goodbye Tumblr
Anyone know where I can get official Kagerou Project merchandise?
I’m just looking for a place where they can ship overseas! I live in the US so I recognize that as something working on my behalf!
Everywhere I looked that I know ships overseas has either very limited products, everything is sold out, or it just looks really untrustworthy with reviews of people starting they didn’t get their products.
Thank you in advance!!
Someone get this calendar and tell me what it says for ENE
She deserves a birthday
Ok I’m going to try and answer what I can as a resident lore appreciator. Also I’m not answering these in order lol.
ALSO! BIG SPOILER WARNING!!
Some things simply cannot be answered because we will never know. Seto doesn’t like to read minds so we will never know what would happen if he read awakenings because he simply would not do it. And if he did, I’m sure it would probably be something as simple as “I want some nigma”. Konoha may be a husk, but he is still capable of thought. The best way I can describe him is, bare with me, he’s like frosty the snow man. Just suddenly coming to life with no idea how the world works and only basic knowledge of how to stay alive told to him by Kenjirou. Konoha is capable of thought because he is capable of making “I want” statements. Yes the “I want to be with friends” is just left over of Haruka, but other statements like about his favorite food or other things he enjoys mean he is capable of having his own thoughts. So I feel like Seto would read his mind like he would read anyone else’s, and get the same results, but we don’t know because he would never do it. Sorry I rambled and realized I read your question wrong but I mean, yeah I don’t think Konoha would notice.
The manga is implied to be the very first timeline, because it is not only the creation of Yaki but also it is so vastly different from the other ones. The results of that timeline is what caused the changes in everyone else’s. Even if they don’t remember, Seto *knows* not to take Marry home. Haruka *knows* he is able to do to school. Momo *knows* to join the Dan. That is the only timeline Shintaro doesn’t explicitly remember but that doesn’t mean he isn’t effected by it. Every timeline leaves an impact on the Dan, even if they don’t realize it.
I feel like if Azami knew about the loops she would have brought it up to Kido in the daze in the novels so we can assume she is unaware. She didn’t create retaining eyes, remember? She doesn’t have any control over the powers Marry creates and therefore doesn’t have those powers. Saeru is a snake himself and to be honest, I don’t know how he knows and Konoha doesn’t because Konoha is also a pure snake. I guess it’s because he’s self aware?
That’s what happens in every route. In the end of the novels it shows that everyone is still there in the daze. It’s also what happens to Haruka and Ayano, everyone is just simply in the daze. Now if you meant they die before they get their snake, I guess that means the snake will go to another person.
Next paragraph is irrelevant because snakes don’t die with their masters because the masters never fully die, they just return to the daze until the reset.
Also we can never know the answer to the last one but I don’t think he would have the power to make himself exist in the first place, he is still a servant to the Medusa, so she would have to do that.
Hope this helped!!! The snakes are so fascinating!
I've questions!! :'>
If you've ever seen my amino, you'll know what's the smiley face for--
Ahem, so!
The snakes' existence is always based on a wish, right? And if a wish is accomplished the snake dies, right? But what if a person - the "owner" of a snake - dies first, what happens? Does the snake die with them or does it go back into the daze?
Now, let's assume snakes die with their "master", here are some other questions: if Shintaro died in the second manga route and resetting timeline caused Yaki to appear again in the next timeline, does it mean that we don't have a full record of all the timelines that happened before their death? Like, do the memories of previous timelines erase or..?
Does it mean that the only two people knowing about all the timelines are Saeru and Azami? (Wait.. does Azami remember all the routes or no-)
I can't remember what the second question was so here's an another one: if Saeru (or basically any other snake) is killed in some way and then Marry resets the timeline, does Saeru become alive again?
And also, let's say we have Seto and Konoha (or Saeru, idk, they're the only "snake people" i know really :^). If Seto tries to read Konoha/Saeru's mind what happens? Does the latter know about it somehow, do they feel that someone's trying to read their mind with the Stealing eyes or does it go unnoticed?
Oof.. i hope it's readable :'>
Aaa, also! If Saeru finds a "master" who's wish would be simlpy for him to exist.. like.. y'know, just a wish for the Clearing eyes not to disappear what happens then? Like,, Saeru gets to live as long as that person lives? (If that wish never changes, of course) Does Saru "take care" of that person in order for them to live longer, like, so that he gets to live longer? :^^
Not to be rude but, she was a child. When you’re a child things are seen as black and white. She was to young and was suddenly given the memories of hundreds of years of pain and suffering from a women she didn’t even know. In her eyes, this was the only way. She didn’t have the capability to negotiate or find another way around it because she didn’t know how, she was young. Not to mention she just lost her parents. I repeat, she just saw her parents, her own mom and dad DIE, or course she’s not going to think straight.
TLDR: cut manga Ayano some slack she was a kid with trauma, as is everyone else in the project. No one’s a good person, they’re all just human.
