Little Nightmares II is a suspense-adventure game in which you play as Mono, a young boy trapped in a world that has been distorted by the humming transmission of a distant tower.
But their journey will not be straightforward as Mono and Six will face a gallery of new threats from the terrible residents of this world.
Will you dare to face this collection of new, little nightmares?

Just a tiny thing I want to add.
Six's hunger is a result of missing a piece of her 'soul' and isn't satiated until she gets another one, the lady's soul. Forget to say that specifically. Also if this cycle is to be true, then we can come to the conclusion that this is in fact the 6th time that this cycle has happened hence there only being 5 lady's in the picture. Six being the sixth one, on her way to eat the current one.
Happy Valentines day :D
Nice theory. But why would the tall man go after 6 wouldn’t it be best if he went after mono because if he did do that six wouldn’t have to leave the place that actually meant something to her.
What if the roles were reversed and Mono is the one that goes to the maw and kills the Lady?
beaver theirs a gnome that lives in the hunters addict were the gnome hat is located how do u think the gnome got there and why it isnt in the maw with other gnomes to work on the furnace
Hey James six didn't betray mono think about it in the first game she ate every she saw when she was hungry soooooo she probably would of ate mono and you need to get the secret ending to see that she's hungry
You know what breaks my heart most? Even as the Tall Man, Mono doesn't want to harm Six. Despite what she did to him, he doesn't try to get revenge. He keeps her in a room, full of toys, and her music box. Even after she betrayed him, he still just wanted to be her friend.
Now that you say it saddens me even more! :'(
U know what, yeah thats actually true
It just shows mono is lonely, he gave six what she was comforted for and in a room, a comfort room.. Despite what she did, he didnt kill her but just turned her to a monster just like she did to him its like "Equal" mono is not a revengeful kid. Respect.
I thought I couldn't feel any sadder about the ending of this game but dang I was wrong
Its cute that we saw the duck toys that six likes in the room she was in
This needs to be near the top.
Mono: *Breaks music box to save Six*
Six: “And I took that personally”
To be honest, I don't think Six tried to kill Mono because of that. I think after she got turned into a monster that's when Shadow Six was born and it was her influence on Six that killed Mono.
@ZzzzZ That’s True So After Saving her SO MANY times (i regret saving her) She Just Said “long live the king” and betrayed me and i now am planning revenge
@@NobodyUndefined thats a good assumption but, right when she gets taken away, mono sees the shadow and he follows it (or the player, you know whatbi mean)
@@starsteets2148 I think that's Shadow Six luring Mono into the tower to kill him

Mono never said that 🤡🤡🤡
@@cheryljohnson2896 you're*
@@grimthedisappointed7711 I don’t think they meant it like saying mono said it. I think they meant it by describing what has happened
you know what's interesting. even as the tall man, I think Mono still love Six, that's why he didn't just kill her or torture her as revenge. he put her in a room, and not like a torture chamber or isolation chamber, the room is filled with toys and her favorite music box. he didn't exploit her, he didn't punish her, I dare say she was even happy within that room until Mono come to break the spell.
but the real question is why did she turn big?
@@jaysblushs7495 a reflection on what she truly was on the inside? All the monsters are big and Six is a kid hellbent on survival which ultimately turned her into a monster (eating the Nome, dropping Mono, eating the Lady etc.)
I read a theory that the Thin Man wasn't trying to warn Mono at all. He was trying to kill him for trying to take Six away from him. Throughout the game, Six was the one kept alive and sought after by the citizens of the Pale City. Once the Thin Man was released he took Six without paying any mind to Mono. It wasn't until Mono tried pulling Six out of the TV that the Thin Man started pursuing Mono. The theory is that this is when the Thin Man started seeing Mono as a threat for trying to take Six away from him. This is backed up by the official Little Nightmares Tweet that said he was possibly looking for a second chance. This means the Thin Man never blamed Six for what she did to him and came to the conclusion that HE must've done something wrong and was trying to make things right. That's why he never hurt her and gave her her own fantasy world, safe from the outside world.
@@polaris9452 but why would he be trying to kill himself wouldn’t that basically just he destroying his own future?
@@shawty1016 Maybe because his young self is trying to “rescue” Six. If the reason for Six betraying Mono is because he destroyed her music box, then adult Mono might want to stop him to prevent the cycle from continuing (he knows young self can beat him). I am pretty sure Six is nine years old, so it’s safe to assume Mono is around the same age. Sitting in a chair from 9 years of age to an old adult age seems torturous. He could have tried to kill his young self to prevent the future he’s currently living. Or perhaps he’s pissed at himself for being trapped for 40+ years for a “mistake” he made as a child. Time travel/loops have been portrayed a lot, and in many different ways so I can’t say whether or not killing young him would destroy old him, but if it did he may not care. At least it breaks the cycle.
The saddest part is that even the "monsters" are in fact the victims of this story
Sad indeed
Indeed
@Queen dayton but they die every time the monsters catch them unless that is how they save them
i think all the "monsters" were once innocent children and were changed by the signal tower or the tv's, because as the name suggests, its a little "nightmare" meaning that everyone in the nightmare was once a child. I also believe that the people in the comics are gonna become the DLC's.
I completely agree. If you look into the lore of not only the bigger creatures of little nightmares but also the smaller creatures, like the gnomes or even the mannequins in number two, (if you haven't already) you will find them quite tragic.
So, what you’re saying is, every time I got caught by the Thin Man, I got the good ending?
Game logic
Yez
Technically but it doesn't stop the loop
@@sahilsaksena3199 I mean. If Mono isn’t alive, he won’t be able to turn into the thin man.
😲😲😲 Technically yea
Yeah when Six came back to her original self after Mono destroyed her music box, we could see she was pissed. You can just feel it. Her getting up slowly and just staring down at Mono rather than running up to him and greeting him. To Six, that exact time when Mono whacked her music box for the first time, she knew he was an enemy.
For me I think it’s because she knew what would happen if he broke it, that if she couldn’t be the host then the tower would take him instead, although it’s clear monster six loved the music box but six that’s in her right mind didn’t care THAT much about it at least not enough to kill someone over it
So monster six did attack mono and defend the music box but I believe that deep down the real six had an influence, not to save the music box but to save mono, that’s why she’s so hollow after being saved (that and she lost her sole)
If you don’t believe me here’s why I believe so
1st if six was as cold hearted as people believed then she wouldn’t have stopped to catch mono if she was she wouldn’t spend a single second longer there, six also doesn’t come across as sadistic
2nd the way she drops him comes across like ripping a band-Aid off, hesitating and ripping her hand away and she stares off even after she dropped him (like saying goodbye)
3rd the tower aims specifically at mono, breaks the part of the bridge that mono was running on, waits for six to drop him and only allows the rest of the bridge to crumble until after six leaves almost like it made a deal with six, “either leave mono here or I’ll keep you both” safe to say the bridge would’ve crumbled immediately after six pulled up mono
4th final one which is just speculation but I believe six chose to leave so she could get the power from the lady and come back to save mono
Edit: but that’s just a theory, a game theory. I rather six not be totally evil which is another why I stand by theory
Bro please forgive me for the long ass reply 💀 did not realize I was yapping that much
Edit: I feel like I should’ve just made this a normal comment instead of a reply lol I might later
I watched my husband play the DLC for Little Nightmares 1, (I’ve already played it) and during the Second DLC (the hideaway I believe?) there’s a room where you can see broken down televisions with drawings of the tall man stuck to them!! I was so shocked and amazed at the same time since there were clues all along to his presence and existence!!
and when your in the painting room you can see the teacher has a portrait in there along with some of the others
this could all be avoided if literally anyone in this universe knew how to talk to eachother
Ikr. Rather than smashing the music box, mono could've hummed the song to Six so she'd get the idea that she's safe with him.
I mean he could yell "Hey!!!" For his life, that throat muscle could handle a humm.
Never felt so true and let just hope that in the third game they finally add some voices
@@rasmunaawangnik9397 yeah but i dont think theres gonna be a third game cause the story looks like it ends here
@@dope5698 nah bruh there's must be
Not gonna lie, I cried when six let mono fall. The poor guy risked everything for her and in return, he's damned to become the thin man and watch as his younger self stops him from breaking the cycle.

how is that fun
The title “Little Nightmares” had never made more sense. We shouldn’t be afraid of the “monsters” in the game, because we play as the scariest ones.
Mic drop

Probably little nightmares 3 will be about six in little nightmares 2 with six in little nightmares 1 as the lady, and many things will happen (bad things)
OMG YESSS PLEAAASEEE😩😩😩
Imagine if we play as either the thin man or the lady and we have to stop mono and six once and for all 😳
@@Jash639 or perhaps stop the eye and save six and mono
I think that for Six it wasn't just the music box that triggered her to drop Mono. She went to the music box after being taken by the Thin Man for comfort as she was so scared of the events and the song always calms her. Sharing the music box with Mono, a dear friend of hers who she trusts. So, when Mono breaks her music box, she panics and has a break down because that moment, her own friend destroys the thing that comforted her from such a traumatizing event. She can't be reasoned with because she is still so frightened by the events she acts out of anger. But once she is freed, she saves Mono, feeling guilty for her actions as in her mind he was her best friend who was trying to help. So, when she catches him, she sees something familiar about Mono and then it hits her, Mono is the Thin Man and his face being ever so alike to his causes Six to instinctively let go of his hand to get away from him. She's only 9 when she was taken by a man from the T.V and so to be around someone like that would overwhelm any child.
One thing about Six being the Lady... anyone else get the impression that these two are a little *too* different? Look at the Lady: dark and monstrous, yes, but her demeanour seems far calmer. Also, consider her immense vanity - she cares a little too much about her looks, having a lot of mannequins for various outfits, she sobs at looking at her twisted reflection, etc. Also linking back to the calm demeanour, the Lady also seems to show a strong maternal instinct, as seen as she caresses the doll in The Residence as well as her humming, suggesting she once had a relationship with someone else (could she have once been a mother?) Not once do we see any of these traits in Six. Think about it: throughout both games we see that Six is a survivor; she's scrappy, untrusting of others, even feral at times, and after leaving the Signal Tower, she appears callous and leaves Mono behind like nothing ever happens. In LN1 (which has been confirmed to be a sequel to LN2) she shows no concern for any of the other children; Six is out for herself. Plus, she comes across a music box in the prison on the Maw and doesn't seem to care about it at all; there's a small theory about Six moving away from her comfort zone surrounding the music box when Mono destroys it. She doesn't care about her appearance either. Yes we see her don the yellow raincoat, but it's to keep her safe from the cold, it isn't a fashion choice. So where would such a drastic change in character from a wild little survivor girl who doesn't need anyone to a vain motherly woman come from? And on top of that, after killing the Lady, Six immediately leaves the Maw. Does it seem like she'd ever have a reason to come back? She certainly doesn't seem like the settling down type. I know she's a child but even the idea that she grows up to become so radically different seems like a bit of a stretch to me, and I don't see how, after living in this cruel world for her whole life, that Six would ever grow out of those instincts that kept her alive for so long.
But hey, that's just my opinion - feel free to disagree with me, all opinions are welcome, it's interesting to see people's viewpoints on this grim ambiguous world Tarsier has created
That is actually a good point. I honestly never believed six is the same person as the lady but I do think six might end up staying at the maw and become the new owner. So basically another lady but not the same exact person. But like you said, she doesn’t seem like the type to settle down at one place with the exception of her staying at the hunter’s place.
This is a totally valid theory, however I would argue that most people change pretty radically when they grow up. Elements of their nature will remain intact, but things like "becoming more vain" just sort of happen during adolescence, y'know? Plus the Lady is powerful and lives comfortably in a position of control - she isn't struggling day-to-day just to survive, so it makes sense that she could begin to indulge in a little vanity. I don't really think these particular differences preclude Six from becoming the Lady, but that's just me.
I've heard someting about a little nightmares mobile game?
Maybe there's some lore there
@@ThrillingDuck Agreed. The Maw consistently brings in new guests for the Lady's consumption, this could easily feed Six's hunger as well.
Hence, the boat horn at the end of the game, signaling another shipment of guests to feast on.
you shouldnt suprised about changes after mono changed into a cold hearted monster
Fun fact: monophobia is the phobia of being alone, and at the end Mono sits there alone

Edit:Thanks for the likes guys
I think it’s the signal tower is the antagonist
I mean it captures Mono and he slowly turns into the thin man
And it might be the reason six betrays Mono because she is still brain washed
@@JMB_Knight i mean if ou think about it it seems like every ones a villan in this universe or technaccly it seems like everyone finds every other person a villan from their prospective either that or mabye nobodys a villan and they are all just trying to survive and fight against the eyes but they end up turning agains't eachother because from theire prospective the other is a villan
waittt...., So the lady girl is Six ??
@@LEDACOFFICIAL yup
exactly u-u.
This game showcases everyone's weakness and fears and nightmares in a way. Loneliness, suicide, addiction, revenge etc.
I got chills watching it.. the most heartbreaking thing for me is to watch them form a friendship and have it ultimately ruined. And as you pointed out, when you watch Six closely you can see in her gestures how she slowly warms up to Mono. Even before releasing the Thin man, she is clearly terrified to death and she wants to run away from the TV, but she waits for Mono with her arm outstretched, beckoning him to start running as well. Idk it just makes me really sad that they had to end up like this.. but this was an amazing video, as always, thank you!
When Thin Man captured Six, a fragment of her soul was removed, becoming Dark Six. When Did was reverted from her monster form, she still didn’t have a soul, her hunger is her body’s attempt to fix it. Dark Six is actually the good half of her. Haunting herself when she does terrible things

My small theory about the Lady is that is not actually ugly, but when she looks at herself in the mirro, what she has become, she sees someone ugly.

Edit: oh oof I understand what you mean now
Or even she's ashamed of who she is and what she did to mono.
She realizes the monster she is
@@hihenia3263 THIS
I actually think this theory is confirmed in the comics
Maybe there is no way to break this infinite loop. The Blob (this is what I'm gonna call the eye goop thing) is an immortal entity outside of time and space that takes away the bodies and glitched souls of the citizens of the pale city to survive. Whenever something bad happens, like the thin man catches mono and tells him not to go after six, it just creates a new timeline where this probability never happens, which explains the respawning animation. Maybe when mono/six spawns back, he/she is in a new timeline. IN the animations, the character wakes up from a nightmare after being killed. Maybe the character was having memories of the other timeline in which the loop was broken.
Basically what I'm saying is that the blob wants to make the world dystopian, manipulating the 2 main characters essential to the loop (six and mono) to do what it wants them to do in order to continue the loop. The blob might be a god-level creature that cannot be comprehended by a human, so it appears as a giant tower.
During his transformation into the thin man, over the years mono hunts the pale city for children, looking for six to kill her and have revenge and acquires his long clothes and hat (this explains the glitched remains).
During this, Six asks the Ferryman to take her to the Maw, where she can have all the food she wants. She becomes hungrier and hungrier, eventually eating the Lady (her older self from the loop). The Lady tells her minions to hunt for children because she knows that she killed the Lady when she was young and she doesn't want that to happen to her.
After present six kills the Lady, she inherits her powers and waits near the chimney of the ship for rescue, however, no rescue comes, only hordes of gluttonous people. She accepts her fate and starts controlling the Maw, till the next version of her kills her and so on.
Maybe Six ( The Lady ) wears a porcelain mask to hide her face just in case Mono comes after her (as he's more powerful).
I think the game symbolises the descent of mindset from a child to an adult, and how a child's innocence and goodness fades away into evil, as they continue their life, experiencing dark and horrible things.
The Blob orchestrates all the events of all the games from beginning to end and repeats this infinitely for it's own malicious purpose.
Anyways, that's my theory, hope it made some sense to you.
Six said "I don't wanna play with you anymore :( "

Another little tidbit, the fear of being alone is called monophobia. Rather than ending Six’s life once Mono became the thin man, he kept her in a room of toys and her own music box.

@@real_mushroom_hunter the point of life isn't getting to the end, it's the journey towards it.
No,its a loop dude
3:00 most of you don't even realize we've been rick rolled
Regarding Monster Six:
I think a reason as to why you also run into 6 as a "monster six" is because maybe mono realized the reason Six dropped him was because he destroyed the only thing precious to six: the music box. So, after becoming the thin man, once mono recaptured six as the thin man, he may have given her the music box and gave six her own little "room" within the signal tower with him ( thinking this was the only way to make six happy ) when in reality he simply fed and created an unhealthy obsession over it within her, warping her appearance. Idk if this makes sense or not.
Do you remember the part where you have to put a teddy bear in an incinerator to get the key and Six grabs a toy too? I’ve learned that if we also burn the toy that Six puts in, the toy will let out like a scream or a cry. Pretty creepy.
Oh my God...
Do you think she knows it's alive?...

Unpopular opinion: one of the most heartbreaking moments is when the monster Six shares her musicbox with Mono:(
That actually broke my heart, I didn't even notice it in the game 😢🤧
@@MoriMeat And it’s sadder because Mono thinks he’s helping her
@@MoriMeat ikr, so painful ;~;
No it's actually incredibly tragic. She shares her music box with you and shows absolutely no hostility until you attempt to break it.... I really want this cycle of suffering, revenge and hatred to end... if they could change the cycle both of them could be saved from their tragic fate and the events leading to the runaway kid being killed could be reversed as well
and mono thought he was saving six by breaking the thing that comforts her. At the end it was all a huge misunderstanding :(
Maybe, she is named "six" because she is the sixth lady of the maw. In the portrait (16:33), there are only five ladies which concludes that the next one is the sixth after the time loop began.
So the next six is gonna be called seven
@@ananddhanola4623 maybe, it’s also important to note that there’s no ingame info that has their names, just the websites so “six” isn’t a weird name if she literally is the “sixth” version of herself
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that these runaway children have names that may be termed as numbers. Like “mono” meaning one or first and “six” just as the number 6 or being the sixth.
That would be cool but the creators have said there's no connection to six and the lady :((
That would make sense. And because she didn’t want to be like the fifth lady she tried to escape no matter what it takes.
i have an idea, so like how the maw is shaped like six's music box, her desire. what if the singnal tower is a signal tower because thats mono's desire, to communicate, interact, and reach out to others, like with signals like tv or wifi
Maybe the reason why six holds mono is because from the first game we know that six can absorb powers like she did with the lady and if you look at the exit of the signal tower looks like a static television screen that only mono and the thin man can go through the screens so she holds mono's hand at the end to absorb his powers to escape.
Sorry i am a year late but i have a question if six absorbed mono's powers how does the thin man have powers he would'nt be able to teleport and travel trough tvs

Kinda expected it. All throughout the game, Mono was rather quite sweet to her and Six was all like 'move bitch!!' I hope poor Mono gets a happy ending.

INTERESTING !!!!!!!
This comment is underrated...
It is also a critique of how the media manipulates people.
Darkest self what does that mean?
@@philly_keem8248 I picture our darkest self as the version void of love and just thinking about ourselves and not others at all. Doing whatever we want not caring about the consequences and who we hurt in the process.
These loops always confuse me. There was a start to the loop, a time where Six was taken for the first time. So who was the first Thin Man? If Mono becomes Thin Man because of the betrayal, how did it start?
Just like our universe, perhaps there was no beginning. Maybe the watchtower just "exists" throughout all time as a connected entity, and all the events of LN never happened.
Or! What if Mono and Six both existed outside of the watchtower's range at one point, but as soon as they entered the range, every event in the game instantly started happening? And all we are doing each playthrough is seeing the timeline from the children POV.

There’s a movie called “Memoirs of a Geicha” and if really brought in some clues about the lady. It’s a amazing movie that brought to light some motives of the lady in this game.
"This is just a theory" I don't think so... My dude just solved everything...
You get a like Happy Valentines Day
Lol
Yes...yes he did
Agree
So little nightmares is about a time loop where everyone is living their worst nightmares over and over again.
If it never stops, it's fate worse than death.
with u saying it like that, it sounds really sad.
@@alexnavarra9007 Quite sad yet fascinating ain't it?
That is why it is called little nightmares the children are destined for their power
Man
You said it ALL! These are the exact same things I've been thinking about!!! Oh my goodness I love these games, but I'm so sad for Six and Mono, their relationship is such a beautiful tragedy, and in my mind I would just love to see them grow up safe together and love each other forever!
Finally a good theory video! Everyone else has weak ideas about what's happening in the story that's hardly backed up by anything and they don't even bother using evidence found through the game or comics. Thank you for your hard work.
Gaming Beaver is amazing.
Imagine how sad Thin Man was when his younger self murdered him.
Damn 😔
Or maybe happy cause then the cycle is broken ??
@@Bergje360 For him, yes but he knows what the sixth Mono will go through
@@Bergje360 cycle isn't really broken though. mono still becomes the thin man. I just hope they'll make a sequel where all the cycle ends and there will finally be a happy ending
😭
Six will always be my favorite character, but when she let go of Mono’s hand I honestly cussed her out-
I like six but rn i finished the game so i feel weird about her but mono is my fav! I do know six felt betrayed but i feel like killing her friend was to much no..?
@@zorathemagic7310 I agree
well what if she knew he would turn into the thin man cuz she figured it out when she was captured and thought she would have to kill him to brake him from the cycle
@@Mars-ts1wl I thought of that too, there are allot of variables but this theory is one of my favorites if I'm honest,even if it is sad
Sad baggy noises-
This TH-cam video is so well designed and helps to perfectly explain this very confusing and complex masterpiece of a story. Thank you for helping me understand the story so much better. What a franchise, if there was ever a game franchise that needed to be turned into a TV series, Little Nightmares is that one! A masterpiece tv series is literally in the waiting room.
beaver: six had a chance to save mono, but she didn't why? *six lets go of mono*
ad: come fly away with me~
A big theory going around of why six dropped mono is that she’d only seen him with his face covered or hidden under a hat. Once she saw his face, she saw he was the thin man who’d brought her into the nightmare
Wow thats bussin
Yo what if he kept the bag on for the whole game
But how can you just look at a younger face of a person and look at an older version of the person and say "oh they look similar" I don't get it 🤔
@@blasphemous.brainrot have you ever seen pictures of older family members when young, they just look older but they are still similar in their face
And to the secret ending we know that six stole some of monos power to go through the tv and accidentally severing her soul in the process making the "hunger" setting ln 1 in to motion
Watching this just proves a point that not everyone wants to be helped. Even if you're trying to do something "good" they wouldn't percieve it as that and thinks it's a nuisance instead.
That's true, I learned that the hard way through a personal experience with someone I thought I could help.
People who have had a tough past , They can't trust so easily, they're afraid.
No good deed goes unpunished
I mean if someone don't want to be help don't help them because it's just going to be miserable for both of you
Knowing what happened to six I believe that other adults in the game are in a similar state, imagine if the tower isn't the only building that is in of itself an entity. It's a lovecraftian thought but, take the teacher for example. Why would she be teaching about the tower unless she knows that something about it is special, apart from cooks, doctors and the staff of The Maw she's the only resident viewer that we saw with an occupation that involved children, dolls or no the bullies are still children, children who like herself are victims of the TV screens. I want to see theories as to why every monster is what they are and who their object / prison may be
You should make more videos like these about other horror games and other horror franchises because I absolutely love hearing you go in depth reviewing these games, it’s genuinely incredibly entertaining.
I was convinced that Six was the lady, when i saw the picture where the lady, and 4 other shadows of her, making her the 5th lady. Meaning that Six, will be the 6th one. As the door where you find the thin man in, has the letter “6” in it. Representing the 6th cycle.
I like how six only did things for herself and then when she finally wanted to actually save Mono, she gets in trouble.
Wait....
Thats illegal
The description of the thin man also says “endless journey” suggesting that it never ends.. like a loop
So it's been foreshadowed
The one other move not in the loop will change the loop forever
I feel like if they made a 3rd game with six becoming the lady would be very pointless gameplay if it just leads to what we’ve all predicted.... :/ that’s just my opinion
I almost feel sorry for all the villains in this story. They're all just tragic creatures looking to fulfill the themes that someone else has pushed on them. If you really look at what happens to to them and what made them the monsters they are, they aren't the real villains in the story. The children are, and as innocent as they may seem, there IS something more sinister at play. The adults to me are more victims than villains. Just look at the lore.
@@HereIgokillinagain Dude everyone in the game isn't evil there just controlled look at very little nightmares how the guy the waiter have hand cuffs THE REAL EVIL IS THE EYE THE ILLUMINATI
After moving on growing up with GB’s channel, this was my few favourite game, and who to see after 2-3 years than one of my still favourite youtubers
I love these theories and come back to them from time to time, your voice is awesome!
Everyone why did six betray Mono.
Beaver: Were did he get that hat?
XD
U get a like
Get em again
Did six betray Mono is really hard to tell
But I am sure if we know why monster six didn't want to hurt mono when she had the music box then we might be able to answer this question.
The key to this is the music box,
six with the music box doesn't want to hurt mono even in her monster form, destroy the music box and she becomes vengeful and wants to kill mono
This game tells you nothing yet it has some of the best storytelling I’ve ever seen in a game
And makes it even more amazing is they didnt have to talk to tell the story, they show us by action
i hope one day they tell the full true Story
One of the best ways to tell a story through a video game is either by the actions of the characters that inhabit the game, or the world the game takes place in. Sometimes, the latter is more powerful a statement.
You may like these other games too: Shadow of the colossus, The Last Guardian, Ico, Bloodborne, Dark Souls games, Demons Souls. They all have that similar type of storytelling style. ✌ oh, and hollow knight*
@@nathanb5579 thx maybe I’ll try them
OH MY GOD! When James says “You get this secret ending” an ad suddenly appeared 🤣🤣
I hope you can make more videos like this these are everything to me
I have a question: Anyone else noticed how Thin Man’s face is alot more human than, well, everyone else’s?
He's a human alright but not an ordinary human.
he's slenderman with a face
Yeah
Yes, cause his power is causing everyone else to look less human
uh..no..yeah?
This is hands down the best theory I have ever heard concerning Little Nightmares.
Long live the King 😆
@@wassup8881 yes
Hi
Thank you for everything I love your vids
I enjoy your vids like no other, Thank you
So technically, the “bad guys” are good, and six is evil
No,the real bad guy here is the transmission (the tower) which is manipulating everybody.
Its right And wrong. The reason is that the bad guys is evil to lives And Good at Trying to stop the cycle. The reason about six is that six is Good at beginning And take revenge at the ending like evil person at little nightmare 2 And six is evil at little nightmare 1
No, the bad guy would be that monster with all the eyes thing at the very end and the one who made the nightmares. Furthermore, six wasn't the one who made the world the way it is.
@@joaosdoppelgangeriminsidey1739 mono is the transmission
@@marth6678 no,the transmission is using mono as a "anntena" to send signals to televisions and control everyone,but mono was smart,he knows that the transmission can't corrupt him if he keeps his eyes closed,and also used this power to send signals to his past self to open the door.
You're a protagonist serving a role of a villain who looks out for herself, against the antagonist who is trying to break the cycle in order to save the world as the hero.
This is why I say Mono is the true protagonist [GOOD] of Little Nightmare while Six is the antagonist serving as the false protagonist [EVIL].
This sentence hurts my brain its smol brain
@@1DAR26 the protagonist is the one who the story follows, not the one who saves the day or does the right thing. If a game or show has a villain centric story, the villain is the protagonist, we see things from their eyes. The hero trying to stop them would be the antagonist to the person whose story we follow. For the first game the protagonist is evil, for the second game the protagonist is good.
@@1DAR26 "villainous", is a story where the protagonist is a villain trying to take over the world. He's not a fake protagonist or any less of a protagonist for being evil, he is just the main character of the story. The person who antagonizes this main character is a hero. But antagonizing a villain does not make you a villain, it makes you a hero for stopping them.
i hope that little nightmares 3 will tell us how the cycle started
Fantastic video man
Good ending idea.
When six is holding mono, mono starts humming the same song as the music box and make six understand that she is safe with him, making her pull him up and escape together.
:)
You are the new einstien i dont know how to spell einstien
@@MrNucleosome what do you mean
Thats low-key kinda cute tho
@@aaaa-oc7en it is
Six: destined to be the lady
Mono: destined to be the thin man
RK (Runaway kid): destined to be eaten (oof)
Raincoat Girl: Destined to drown with the pretender all to help Six escape the Nest.
@@chaosrex1487 ouch
@@chaosrex1487 then if they continue the who is the next janitor, granny, pretender, hunter and doctor? Where is their cycle?
They were killed off
@@Six_the_Dragon I don’t know.... maybe the children from the comics? The kid from chapter 4 looked a little like one of the twin chefs.
I love that part where you say, and mostly where the mono get that hat! 🤣💅
I LOVED this theory!!!! This was an AWESOME video!!!! 😊👍
“Six has a chance to save Mono, but didn’t... *Why?*”
Ad: If you love your customers, *set them free.*
My ad said Who are you?
✨Hey🦎did🦎you🦎know🦎Geico🦎saves🦎you🦎15%🦎or🦎more🦎on🦎car🦎inaurace🦎✨ was my ad I was like ok but I dont have a car...
She didnt save him because if you saw the beginning he broke down the door ruining the peace she had when listening to the music box it put her at peace. In the end she finally realizes that he is the nightmare. Now if you remember the end when he broke the doors and kept trying to break the peace she had listening to it and this is why she dropped him because he is the reason why.
But dont get it twisted not only is mono the nightmare six is too..
In the end six drops him leaving him alone and this is why he kept getting drawn to the tv the older mono knows what will happen if he stays with six. This is why he takes six and not mono in the chase scene. Older mono's nightmare is being alone and six is the one who is causing him to be alone and taking six a way to Try to prevent it from happening all over again.
Six Nightmare: No music box no peace
Mono: Loneliness
Mono just wants a friend but six thinks the music box is the friend.
Him breaking it is her nightmare
Her dropping him an leaving him with no friends and alone is his nightmare
To be honest i think that mono is chasing after her because he needs a friend if she leaves him his nightmare will have become true all over again...he is trying to break the cycle.
In the end I think Six is the bad guy....she is trying to prevent the cycle from stopping and she is leaving him alone :(
Hens the name
(Little Nightmares)
My ad said "Because you are precious"
If ever this masterpiece gets a part 3, my only wish is that there would be someone or something, an unknown variable appears in the next timeline. I just hope that this gets a better ending, not a happy one or a sad one, just... better.
The oddball child that comes in and throws a wrench in literally everything.
What if the runaway kid was the unknown variable and thats why he was a DLC
@@skizzler1232 But in the end, The Runaway Kid couldn't break the cycle. He wasn't strong enough. No, the unknown variable has to be an outsider, literally.
@@skizzler1232 the Runaway Kid is also stuck in his own loop. And if you know, the Runaway Kid is the gnome that got eaten by Six in LN1? Yeah, he was that guy. And it's pretty sad also :(
@@prometheanrebel3838 :(
I literally just love how TheGamingBeaver is funny
dude this was wild and sounds very on point thank you i just subscribed
Probably reaching, but since mono means “one” or “single” it’s a bit of a foreshadow of Mono’s ultimate fate.
Yeah. Both Mono and Six are numbers. 2-5?
@@chaosrex1487 this may be an on the ropes woosh
@@somethingseismic7937 No I get the OP'S point don't be like that. I'm saying that they are intentionally being named variants of one and six and could potentially be part of a set. I'm not saying that means we'll be getting characters like 'Trio' or 'Hand'(Implication being 5 because 5 fingers), just that we're supposed to be paying attention to the fact that they are.
The alternative, as Beaver's video would indicate, is that Six is six because she's the sixth lady, and Mono is One because he will always be stuck in his cycle of solitude and be the singular Thin Man.
Wait, if mono means one and we meet six then is there going to be 4 more games. The games follows six and show how she is the true monster
I’m thinking “mono” is more referring to the word “monochromatic” which would make sense since the thin man’s appearance and his association with monochromatic tv.
The moment she holds his hand is probably the first time she sees his face without the paper bag. I feel that's relevant, and that there's more to it than 'revenge'.
After all, the Thin Man was the one who put her in that nightmare, right? The guy with the same face as Mono.
But the Thin Man and Mono’s faces look entirely different from each other
@@user-qz5eb7pd4x I’m not saying they’re not the same. I’m saying that because they look nothing alike cause they’re at different ages of their life, Six wouldn’t just “know” Mono is a younger version of Thin Man.
Exactly because she retract her hand like she’s disgusted « it was you! » type of way
@Nina Tote oh mah God I'm confused af...
I hope they release the 3rd game breaking the loop.😖
@@andjievalery7516 idk but this comment made me laugh. Imagine one of her voice lines after retracting her hand from saving mono was, "IT WAS YOU!"
The best theory about Little Nightmatres! Thanks!!
I love your videos, keep up the good work👍
So i just found out
The meaning of the word maw is
"The mouth or gullet of a greedy person"
Which means the maw was made because of six's hunger for power and of course food it was a big discovery and it really represents how greedy six is
Imagine they make little nightmares 3 where they start the time loop again but you can choose choices to finally stop the loop.
YOOOOOOOOO
YYYEEEEESSSSSSSS
Imagine if instead of the thin man going to the past(repeating the same cycle) he instead goes to the future. In the process, meeting an older version of six with the lady's powers. I'd pay good money to see if that ever comes to fruition.
Or, introducing a third child. As we've already seen, Six and Mono have powers, so it stands to reason that other children should have powers. Not all of them but some. So perhaps a child with time alteration powers could break the chain. They go backwards through the story, altering events, changing, and therefore breaking, the cycle. For example: stopping the thin man from taking Six
@@yaxlndxiii1290 yesss being that this loop has happened many times i don't think they can break this themselves. I like the idea of a 3rd child
That got REAL deep REAL quick, ꧁Beaver꧂. How do you come up with this stuff. Also, that was really great. I didn't feel like getting the game when someone just did a nice and detailed theory. You are the best youtuber I've ever watched before.😁😁
I love it how he just acts like a comedian and tells funny things while also telling the theory, which makes it more interesting and not boring
I know this is little “nightmares” but damn wish there was just one strand of time they stay friends and no future self is after them
there is in the loop we see after six drops mono, mono see why it happens and stays inside and the evidence is in very little nightmares which beaver forgot about
@@squatch_games oh
@@frostbitetheannunakiiceind6574 i wish beaver talked about it but whatever
I think that the Eye monster is a Demon like the Snot Demon in Jing E Eat o story , It made a Brother and Sister do horrible and evil things to every one and every thing around it for it to eat and feed of there misery. Even getting the Big Brother to kill his own parents. I cant help but think the Eye Demon is the same in that way?
Mono: destroys the music box
Six: “I will never forgive this”
also six: *So you have chosen DEATH MONO?*
Six will remember that.
Six: "And I took that personally."
Mono: “but I SAVED you!”
Six: “bold of you to assume I care”
Well six just made a *nightmare* by her own friend mono......
Its the thin man....
Hi i love all little nightmares theory videos pls do more it will be so cool also your videos make me smile everyday
Oh god i dont expect to see you again i watched your old dinosaur game i forgot the name, but you give me nostalgia
Yellow Raincoat Kid from VLN: Is forced to jump off a cliff and dies
Mono: Gets betrayed by Six and becomes the Thin Man who is stuck to repeat a cycle
Runaway Kid (Seven): Becomes a Nome and gets eaten by Six
Six: Becomes a mass murderer and potentially becomes the Lady
It sucks being a protagonist in the universe of Little Nightmares. Seven probably got the worst fate in my opinion because he is stuck to repeat a cycle of always getting close to freedom, only to become a Nome by the Lady and inevitably cannibalized by Six.
When six eats something she doesn't just consume it normally. She consumes the sense itself of the thing, I assume that when seven saw the lady's face and her reaction he figured out the way to defeat her, so when six ate him she gained his knowledge and knew the way to defeat the lady....at least he wasn't just dead for no reason :'|
Is six the teacher?
It was confirmed that the Runaway Kid was not the nome that Six ate.
@@samibiloff233 what are you talking about? it was shown that The Runaway Kid was turned into a nome and got eaten by Six in the dlc.
@@samibiloff233 It was most defenitely the Runaway Kid. He gets turned into a gnome and the next scene you see him in the room where Six ate the gnome, with the sausage. The achievement that is unlocked at that moment is: We'll meet again.
I know how Mono/ Thin Man got his clothes, when 6 gets her raincoat u can see clothes on a box and a hat matching the Thin Man's stuff. which means that when he got older he visited the place he went with 6. how absolutely heartbreaking :(
Yup
and he commited suicide i think, he kind of looks like the hanging man in the first game
@@pancake5830 the hanging man is not Mono since it's in the maw where the hanging man is at so it was the thin man but just in a different cycle
@shamekh zia nah dawg it’s either the ferryman or the wax bellman
This video is one of the best interpretations of the history that I have heard.
I first noticed this game series because of you Beaversaurus and as much as I think I would enjoy them I don't think they would be as good without your explanations
