So, I take it that the candy is media. People have a short attention span and never really look closer, getting bored before those that are good at their craft can even show their talents. Media should be savored and felt closely, understood, 'tasted'. People take interest in their media make all sorts of theories about the content they see, to unravel it, like I am now. Those that thrive now, though, are those that make shortform content, just a dopamine injection to the brain with nothing behind it, no flavor. It really erodes the attention span, 'rusting' it, no one gets anything out of it anymore. You hardly feel a thing. It's a song of the creator's frustrations in being left behind along with all of the things that require closer inspection to reveal their true qualities. Or, that's my take.
That makes a lot of sense, especially when you consider the line "You don't even remember what the candy 80 seconds ago tasted like" at 3:00. With things like tiktok, most people can't even remember the last two videos they watched unless they left a considerable impact on the viewer. I'm guilty of it myself, and this theory makes a lot of sense! Good job to the subtitler too, on point!
@@iimuchii6566 Tiktok? Funny enough, I saw a (japanese) comment said that some of r-906 song comments are blocked because it got popular on Tiktok or something.
This theory is so good specially because of the line "don't touch my right hand" at the beginning, which later pays off with the skip button being pressed later, that being the right hand. It is obvious in hindsight but i thought that was so smart. It's a "Don't skip me"
I've also seen some people mention that one of her twintails is tied up. I think this could represent the state of media that R-906 is criticizing here, as his song mikazuki step went viral on tiktok. The short pigtail is the tied up, condensed version of the music he's made. Short form content is more popular than ever, and musical artist's music is not "savoured" in full. I think that's what this song is all about.
@@stardustjarrthat, and my take is that the tiktokification of media most often has people swiping and skipping through it using only their right hands.
Right when the lyrics "You don't even remember what the candy 80 seconds ago" pops up, if you rewind back 80 seconds, you go back to the first chorus!!
I'm pretty sure this song talks about "teenagers these days" who always need something fast, represented by the candy being crunched with no taste, meaning they do not appreciate the media in a way. The "don't touch my right hand." part makes more sense the second time ; a teenager possibly watching her is skipping the video ahead, as if they didn't appreciate her speech, again, to which Miku says "You just touched my right hand", "I see everything" and "You trampled the candy underfoot"

[ tackmyn.livedoor.blog/psi_r-906 ] Ratsuji's notes: While I was making the subs, I noticed at the beginning of the song in a fast-disappearing frame "I on U"; it has several meanings: 1) I on U = Eye on You 2) When you put two letters on each other, you get Psi, the Greek alphabet letter [ ψ ]
3) Phonetically, “I on U” would be romanized as “Ai On Yuu” in Japanese, which just so happens to also be the way they would spell the English words “I Own You” Considering that “Today, too, thousands of mere shells pretending to be masters…” line, I’d definitely put the possibility pretty high this was intentional. Hoo Boy do I love r-906
It is known that this author likes to use topics about psychology in their songs, precisely the letter ψ is the emblem of the sciences that study the psyche.
I suspect that the song aims to portray someone who has a problematic attachment style, or a personality disorder related to attention/social validation (narcissism or histrionism, for example).
Not to one up the person who made this video but there’s a lyric video for “Wind Over the Flower” that is almost dead accurate to the video. The only reason why it isn’t is due to the typesetting programs limitations. It’s a very impressive video, I recommend checking it out! Plus the song is good.
Thank you for the english translations!!! This song was honestly a banger and I wondered what it meant. I thought it was a Halloween themed song but I guess I was wrong. I am still trying to wrap my head around what the song is really about though. It seems that there are a lot of things that can be taken away from here, that I'm not sure what the central theme of the lyrics are. Maybe the song is about not wanting to be seen but at the same time not really? I can understand the TVs about the eye thing, but the candy imagery is what confuses me ultimately...
honestly i was thinking it could be a commentary on consumerism online nowadays, like vocaloid producers (for example) producing songs and people slowly consuming them faster and faster to the point that they dont even "taste" it anymore. but even then, producers/creators still want the attention and love so they still keep producing all this candy that everyone quickly forgets about
@@senvurii6468 I see, I also received another similar answer online when asking around what the song meant. But, I guess that is what R-906 is trying to say in this song this time. (There are a lot more other songs from them, that I am confused about the meaning too.) TikTok is probably the reason for these short attention spans (and how advancements in technology has changed our interaction with creative media) for R-906 to be writing about this. Honestly, it is also a really creative way to talk about it. Thank you for giving me your input on this! I now understand it more 👍
When the video skip effect happened and then she jumpscares you, its like those videos where someone is scrolling tiktok and everything is the same meme. Who knows if that similarity was intentional but it cracked me up regardless.
this songs a banger. sad that I found it late. vtuber rabbit hole stole the spotlight and flood my youtube feed with clips. Now that many are awaken, Miku and vocaloids can take back the spotlight.
I still don't know what's up with the right hand? i feel like there's a deeper meaning behind it or I'm just reading too much into it nonetheless i still really like the song Miku face looks so antagonistic in the mv is so cool.
@@ratsuji2118 2:49 Ah, I noticed. That's why there was a _Fake_ skip button here, Which is on the right. Which it suprised me cuz I never skipped anything until I look at the YT controls and realized it's part of the MV.
i saw another comment talk about it, and when you look at the lyrics about "teenagers these days" and "hastily crunching on candy without knowing the taste of it", it apparently correlates to people seeking instant gratification from content and media without taking time to fully understand it. the right hand thing apparently translates to skipping ahead in a video
I think the right hand thing is supossed to be a jumpscare because you skipped part of the video, and thus, Miku knows what you did. This makes a lot more sense on a cellphone. The skip button is on her right hand and you just touched it.
I really appreciate this seeing how the original and a couple covers don't have subs!!!!! I was dying to know what the lyrics were about. I'm glad it led me here, really good work making the subs seamlessly fit into the video too.

okay this song bops and all but im just wondering is that black part of her chest part of her skin or not part of her skin like its bothering me more than it should rn but it has an eye there and her skin turns black as well-
i think it's part of the clothes and not the skin because it's positioned to look like a tie or cravat, much like how the eyes on the end of her dress and on her headband blend in and look natural. i didn't even notice it wasn't a tie until i saw this comment
Ive been skipping this song thr entire time and then i finally actually watch it all the way through and its calling me out. Alright then im savoring my music from now on
@@ratsuji2118 Cool. I've been wanting to get good at subs like that. How time consuming is it to time the subs as carefully and as close to the og text on screen as you did?
@@ninlink1smh It depends on the difficulty of MV. I think the minimum amount of time I spent on subbing was 30 minutes with plain text MV and the most was like... several days? Although Ungray Days is a disaster. Usually it is somewhere in between 1 hour and 5 hours.
So, I take it that the candy is media. People have a short attention span and never really look closer, getting bored before those that are good at their craft can even show their talents. Media should be savored and felt closely, understood, 'tasted'. People take interest in their media make all sorts of theories about the content they see, to unravel it, like I am now.

While I was making the subs, I noticed at the beginning of the song in a fast-disappearing frame "I on U"; it has several meanings:
1) I on U = Eye on You

3) Phonetically, “I on U” would be romanized as “Ai On Yuu” in Japanese, which just so happens to also be the way they would spell the English words “I Own You”
Considering that “Today, too, thousands of mere shells pretending to be masters…” line, I’d definitely put the possibility pretty high this was intentional.
Hoo Boy do I love r-906

@@TheSodaWaveare you gonna do a MMD to this song? :D

Sub timings and animations are top notch. The song is also cool, never heard it before.
С Новым годом!
The right hand is where Miku is giving out candy, and basically i think its like discarding the candy to quick moving onto the next one

The fake skip button tripped me up!!! That was a cool effect, and while i can't read the subs all that fast I'm super intrigued by this song!
i appreciate the frame perfect timing of the subtitles
hard listening to this knowing shes talking about you
Thank you for the translation! Are you going to translate more r906 songs in the future??
Hello! All translations are not mine, I'm just a subber, so that's a question not for me to answer
The "Misutenaide!" part i just love it
Thank you so much for the cool video! This is sick! Love all the effort you put into editing

"Quoi qu'il arrive ne touche pas ma main droite s'il te plaît"
Partout en ville on ne parle que d'un beau bonbon
Je sais pas d'ou il vient, mais c'est un cadeau certain
Bleu, jaune, orange, violet et rouge carmin
Si les ados ne l'ont pas en bouche, ils feront rien
Au départ il été sensé être savouré
Mais maintenant je ne vois plus personne le lécher
Comme si plus personne ne pouvaient attendre qu'il fonde et
qu'ils se contentaient de l'avaler sans même le goûter
Ma voisine a réfléchie à une théorie
Comme une suite de domino, elle jurait tout haut
Rien de plus, rien de moins qu'incertain
mais ces preuves m'ont quand même fait réfléchir en bien
Au départ il été sensé être savouré
Mais son goût, maintenant plus personne le connaît
Tant que c'est joli, qu'importe ce que c'est
Tu vois, tout ça, ça viendra ça viendra viendra après…
(-près)… (-près)… (-près)… (-près)… (-près)…
Tu vois, tout ça, ça viendra ça viendra viendra après…
(-près)… (-près)… (-près)… (-près)… (-près)…
Me laisse pas tomber !
Même ce moi égoiste, tu va le décorer
Ce que tu crois que je suis devenu
Donc pour toi j'accepte de murmurer un secret, mais juste
un seul, ok?
Aime moi plus fort !
Regarde-moi encore
Doucement, tu dissous
mon esprit déjà épuisé
même si je sais que dès demain, tu aura tout oublié
et tout le monde a déjà oublié le beau, bonbon,
et ce qui était la le matin, nous manque déjà
"rouge, bleu et jaune, c'est bien trop rétro pour moi"
Les vingtenaires sont trop cool pour la nostalgie, c'est ça?
Au départ c'était sensé être une tragédie
Mais je vois plus personne la déplorer ces temps-çi
On dirait qu'il y a beaucoup, beaucoup d'alternatives donc,
ce qui arrive aujourd'hui semble s'être produit avant-hier
Tiens ? Il tient sa main un bonbon argenté
Est-ce que c'est volontaire ou pas si on se met à l'imiter ?
Les circuits de mon cerveaux sont anormalement rouillés
Mais en les regardant de près, rien ne cloche, on dirait
Comme un troupeau d'oisillions, vous attendez bouche ouverte, hein ?
Alors, c'est comment ?
Est-ce que t'es content ?
et déjà un doré gagne en popularité
Tu vois, tout ça, ça viendra ça viendra viendra après…

Tu est déjà parti d'ici
Le goût du bonbon d'il y a 80 seconds, tu ne t'en
souviens pas !
Aime moi plus fort !
Regarde-moi encore
Ce commun sentiment
de déjà vu s'intensifie
tel un miroir, dans l'écran je me vis
Exact, c'est ça !
Tu ne saura jamais
Ces quelques secondes samplées
vont m'attraper et m'étouffer
Tu fais un pas, écrase le bonbon délaissé
J'observe tout, tu sais ?
Aujourd'hui aussi, coquilles vides par milliers
Prétendent être un grand maître, dont je n'ai jamais entendu parler
Sans même m'en rendre compte j'ai vomi un peu de sang
Dans la ruelle discrètement tu disparaît
La prochaine fois, de quelle couleur devrais-je le décorer ?

Her right hand might be related to marriage in a way, she asks for love, but may not want you to marry her
Just a thought
Wedding rings actually go on the left hand
I think it might just be related to skipping the video
becausr you click on the right side of the screen to skip it
