@@rqven6249toko mentioned it too, her line ‘you leave a bathroom worse then Leon” is a double entendre on how yuri sh and how she pissed on a poem 😭 both of them were good
Nobody talking about Yuri referencing Toko's parents locking her in the closet, like that's such a deep cut from UDG that so many people missed in that game too.
@@AbsolLootley I thought it was because every time syo killed someone she s/h by cutt¡ng her leg and toko hated seeing that so that's why /gen (sorry for my terrible grammar I'm bad at typing)
@@thesweetsbunch1229 That may also be another reason. I’m kinda glad for Danganronpa S, they’re giving Toko a long skirt for her swimwear so she doesn’t have to look at her leg :)
as a person who wants to become an animator and has always wanted to see danganronpa sprites moving fluidly that was all i was thinking about in the second verse
“It wasn’t entirely pointless” is a reference to the fact that Yuri’s death experience and perspective wise shocked the audience of those who played the game, thinking it was but a dating simulation, but it really was all to real to deal with.
" You grew close to your man then in case 2 he went out of his way to frame , then only your picture remained in your bad ending play through and he went out of his way to frame you." Come on is nobody going to talk about this killer bar? Sheesh that line gives me goosebumps.
Honestly the another portrait to mark off and the scissors beat the paper you get your rocks off to kinda left that line in the dust but that was good too
@@boogerbuns I think the verse "I made a boy loose his mind with the love in his heart, you made a boy loose a bet with how ugly you are" was a great line
I'd like to first point out how in Yuri's first verse, she acts like herself. Very apologetic for her words. But in the second verse, she's just out for blood. And then how she repeated the first line of the poem both times. Kind of like in the game. How it repeats, except things are just worse and different.
@@2ac4_87ack ehm it‘s yuris Book that she always read and i think she is also features as the antagonist in the game : Portrait of Markov but it isn‘t out yet
Yuri wasn't bad at all, if this was anyone else I'd give her the win, she had rlly good lines, but Toko simply had lethal roasts in her every single line 😭
"In your teletubby club, you're the most unbearably clingy. No one wants to share a weekend, in a bin with Kinky Winky!- Achoo!" STOP SHES ALREADY DEAD
At 2:03 , it’s a reference to Toko killing her crush for rejecting her. The tally marks on her leg represent the people she’s killed. Yuri basically told Toko that Komaru would reject her too, and she’d kill another person she loved. That gave Yuri the win for me, and I’m a huge fan of Danganronpa.
on 1:20, Jill says "you'll be another portrait to mark off", pronuncing "mark off" as "markov", referencing one of the books that Yuri reads "portrait of markov"
0:51 I feel this clever use of Toko's stutter, which she is known for, actually mimicking the audio stutter some rappers use in a song's mix is going highly under appreciated.
Best lines of each Yuri: - "And I bet your count of kills mostly scarred you, go carve a tally with your friendship with Komaru" (WILD OMFG) - "Try not to get too hung up on your rejection, Syo-ri!" (wow.) - "When your reality, Sho, is a reality show" (love this pun) Syo: - "Now get that pen outside of you and write me something better!" (of course it had to be here) - "But they must call you Yuri 'cause you can't land a guy" (😶😶) - "In the courtroom, you'll be another portrait to mark off" (love this pun as well)
@@Nataninko Well, I mean, Toko only kills boys, and Yuri only kills herself. So, it seems like that they would rather "cut" each other, with their poetry, literally.
@@agenthurricane4839 Correct. Also the latter line "Scissors beat paper you get your rocks off to," refers to the Yuri line as well, not just mentioning Genociders signature scissors but the lesbian act of scissoring.
The embarrassing part of this for Touko is that Syo cleans Yuri up but cleans TOUKO up too in the process. Like… “When it comes to my racier tastes..” “You stutter a single sentence…” “Sinking low in shame, got the bookworm’s eye view” “Your depressive obsession was just in vain” Like, you can’t even go hard enough at Yuri SPECIFICALLY that you hit your damn alter in the crossfire? Syo spit hard but at least Yuri made it through the battle without doing any self harm.
It’s really cool! In the MvHQ behind the scenes I believe Dustin explained that it’s meant to represent the Dokis’ transition from being just characters in a game to having their code manipulated and gaining self-awareness
I still find the lyrics to be so clever and well researched for this, everything from the play-on-words to referencing some more obscure things like the tally marks and questionable stains on Yuri’s poem. Literally every line is a genius reference lol, and the voice acting is amazing, too!
“In your Teletubbie club, you’re the most unbearably clingy. No-one wants to share a weekend in a bin with Kinky Winky!- ACHOO!" “Try not to get too hung up in your relationship, Syo-ri.” “Miss, you don’t even shower.” “Get that pen outside of you and write me something better.” “When Your Reality, Sho, is a reality show.” “Cuz *scissors* beat the *paper* that you get your *rocks* off to.” “Take those piss-poor flows and find more poems to pee on! You leave a bathroom worse off than Leon!" “The only tails you know are from your braids.” W O W . I didn’t understand the last one but I liked it.
Without a doubt, Toko won. While Yuri got a few points, she wasn't the best to fight a serial killer. Because Genocide Jack cut her up quicker than any paper.
Yuri is self aware like Monika and she's been seen to get extreme Monika was like the other girls but was give elevatoed access so when Monika was gone Sayori got Access so yuri could as well
Here are the references I loved in this: 1. Yuri’s reference to Toko’s braids being the only “tales” (tails) she knows 2. Toko’s reference to both Monicas 3. Toko’s reference to how genocide isn’t shy like the racer girl when I comes to insults 4. Toko referencing Yuri’s name. Because in Japanese it technically means lesbian. So she’s saying she can’t get guys because she’s gay. 5. “Portrait to mark off” which references one of Yuri’s books called “portrait of markov” 6. Toko says “sinking low in shame, got the bookworm’s eye view” which means that she’s looking hard at Toko’s verses because she needs pointers, and also about Yuri’s death and Yuri’s personality. 7. Toko references alter-ego in one of the last lines which says that Monica altered Yuri’s ego by making her more psychotic 8. At the very end, Toko says her obsession wasn’t entirely pointless, because Yuri does at the end of it lol.
THIS SONG STILL GOES SO HARD DUDE THAT ONE LINE YURI HAD THAT WAS LIKE "im gently closing the door on your little love story try not to get too hung up on your rejection sayori" LIKE OBV A JOKE IN THAT WAS THE "HUNG UP" BUT THEN ALSO THE "IM GENTLY CLOSING THE DOOR" CUZ BEFORE YOU DISCOVER SAYORI'S HANGING BODY IT SAYS "you gently open the door" LIKE THAT BLEW MY MIND WHEN I REALIZED
when i was going through my old sketchbook i came across the lyrics to syo's part and decided to listen to this again. damn, the verses are way more savage when you understand the wordplays
Also, I just researched, and found out Tinky Winky is the purple Teletubby, of the Teletubbies. I never really remembered the names of them, because I was too busy staring at Sesame Street.
Most people say Toko, but I say Yuri for her second verse, for me both verses matter the most and thats what make it excellent. I feel like Toko repeated herself in the second verse, if she hadn’t used all her materials in the first verse and saved some for the second verse, I would said she won, but she didn’t so Imma give this crown to Yuri, you guys can say it’s Toko though
1:59 is such a good reference to the book "Portrait Of Markov" yuri talks about in the original game! "yapping 'bout code" is how you get the other messages about the "third eye", "project libitina" and more that are hidden in the games FILES. LITERALLY MESSING WITH THE CODE!!!(★ ω ★)
I’m a huge fan of DDLC and Danganronpa so I can’t just go with favoritism. So with that said, Toko won for me. While she had Genocide Jack’s help for a lot of it, she made some valid statements, and her raps were fire. Yuri did well too but I feel like if she had done a little bit better, she could’ve matched Toko and it would’ve been harder for me to decide a winner. However, that’s not the case, so Toko wins for me.
Oh, Toko absolutely wrote the rhymes but only Jill had the bravery to lay them down without stuttering Then again the Teletubby Club lines were kinda augmented by the stutters
Is literally no one gonna talk about how good Yuri’s voice actor in this song is? (It’s really good. Her voice sounds really insane and monotone, its so good)
@@niksspace5693 In DDLC at 2. If the majority of your poems were dedicated to Yuri. She would start breathing and getting close to you so that you hear her breathe. I won't say too much in case you wanna play the game for yourself but, that was kind of the point
"grew close to your man then in case 2, he went out his way to frame you, and only your picture remained in your bad ending playthrough. AND HE WENT OUT HIS WAY TO FRAME YOU." That line and "Stop acting slick, you're a close-minded coward. Think you got flow? Miss, you don't even shower." KINDA ATE THO. Syo and Toko still have my vote tho 😂
"In the courtroom you'll be another portrait to mark off!" "You leave a bathroom worse off then leon." "No one wants to share a weekend in the bin with Kinky Winky!" Toko and Syo won
'Lines so flat like the doki doki in your heart stopped in the courtroom you'd be another portrait to mark off' ARE NOT GONNA TALK ABT HOW FIRE THAT LINE WAS??
It took me a while but I finally got why Yuri said “and he went out his way to frame you” twice. The first “frame you” meant, well framing her for ze morder. And the second “frame” was meant the picture frame, as in literally frame her photo. Awesome details! I still think Toko won tho :p
@@theemmux6817 I could be reading it wrong but I'm pretty sure it was more of a visual verse, making reference to the fact Yuri cut herself and just used the knife along with the line.
"No one wants to share a weekend in the bin w/kinky-winky" "They must call u yuri cause u can't land a guy" "What characters is left in ur files to delete?" "Lines so flat like the doki doki in ur heart stop/u'll be another portrait to markov" "Get that pen outside of u and write me something better" "You leave a bathroom worse off than Leon" "Gurl, once the beat dropped you hit the club floor" let me just say...DAMN, hands down Toko/Syo wins
@@llnlll so yuri is the genre in manga/anime that has a relationship between girls or more commonly called “girl’s love”, genocide used that line because in the game yuri was unable to get the main character to love her
As someone who knows both of these characters, this was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. “Portrait to mark off”, “third eye, four-eyes”, and the “framed you” flip was excellent. I’d give this to Yuri but I absolutely loved both. I think this is actually my single favorite of your battles out of all of them.
Holy SHIT by far one of the tensest battles you've ever crafted. The flow and build up throughout every single verse is astronomical. Ken and Chi brought their absolute ALL and portrayed these characters so beautifully. It's literally fucking insane what you were able to do here and the animation in the last verses caught me so off guard ugh. The beat. HELP ME. CLEAN!!!!!!!
EXPLAINING THE PUNCHLINES: 0:19 - 0:26 = Toko gets rejected, aka 'ghosted', by the guy she has a crush on. In DDLC, Yuri writes a poem called 'Ghost Under the Light'. 0:27 - 0:35 = Toko was locked in a closet as a child, 'skeletons in your closet' is a phrase which means secrets or trauma. 0:38 - 0:43 = Toko changes into her alter-ego Genocide Jack when she sneezes, who kills people with scissors similar to how Sweeney Todd kills with a razor. 0:53 - 0:57 = Not sure about this one, Toko might be calling Yuri spineless, because Yuri explains in DDLC that she has back pain because of her boobs. 0:58 - 1:06 = Don't know about the Teletubbies comparison here, Toko might be calling the literature club childish. Tinky Winky is a Teletubby and Yuri in Act 2 has some extreme kinks, making 'Kinky Winky'. 1:06 - 1:09 = There's a character called Monaca in Danganronpa UDG, and Toko/Genocide Jack has to destroy her pawns. Monika is also a character in DDLC, and Yuri being controlled by her could make her Monika's pawn. 1:09 - 1:14 = A mechanic in DDLC is deleting the characters' files in the actual game's files, which Monika does to Yuri to delete her from DDLC. 1:14 - 1:17 = Yuri is a Japanese genre which means love between two girls, in DDLC Yuri is not able to make the player character love her. 1:17 - 1:21 = Doki-Doki is the Japanese onomatopoeia for a heartbeat, so Toko is saying Yuri's lines are so flat she thinks that she's dead. When a character dies in Danganronpa, their presence in the courtroom is replaced by a portrait of their face, with a red X over it. In DDLC, Yuri reads a book called 'Portrait of Markov' which is important to the meta lore of the game. 1:25 - 1:29 = Bird's-eye view is a phrase which means a view fron directly above something, so a worm's-eye view would be from the ground, because Yuri is sinking low in shame. She combines this with bookworm, because Yuri reads a lot. 1:29 - 1:33 = In DDLC, Yuri makes banners for a festival. Genocide Jack uses scissors to kill people. In Act 2, Yuri gets heavily obsessed with a poem the MC gives her and presumably masturbates to it. 'Get your rocks off' is a phrase that means to orgasm. So Toko combines these three things to make a rock-paper-scissors punchline. 1:33 - 1:37 = In Act 2 of DDLC, Yuri steals a pen that the MC drops and uses it to masturbate with. 1:44 - 1:47 = "Nobody would cry if she killed herself" is a line that Yuri says about Natsuki in Act 2 of DDLC, which we later find out was Monika reprogramming Yuri's text to get the MC to hate her. 1:47 - 1:55 = In Case 2 of Danganronpa, Togami, who Toko has a crush on, framed her for murder by revealing her identity as Genocide Jack. In the bad ending for Danganronpa in Case 5, we see the possible future of the students and Toko is not there, with Togami holding up a frame portrait of her instead. 1:55 - 1:59 = Toko was asked out in middle school out of nowhere by a boy she didn't know. She spent three days planning for the date but she then found out he only asked her out because he lost a bet. 1:59 - 2:03 = Third Eye is a concept in DDLC which has yet to be explained fully, but the premise is that it allows people/characters to realise that they are in a simulation. 'Your Reality' is the ending credits song of DDLC, sung by Monika. Genocider Sho, or Syo, is the original Japanese name of Genocide Jack. At the end of Danganronpa 1, it's revealed that everything that happened was being streamed to the outside world on TV. This could also be referring to the ending of Danganronpa V3, where it's revealed that the whole series has been fiction (inside the Danganronpa universe, a second layer of fiction), and so Toko would just be a reality show character to the 'real' people in Danganronpa. Yuri is telling Toko to awaken to her Third Eye to realise she is a fictional character. EXCEPTIONALLY layered line btw, definitely my favourite. 2:03 - 2:06 = Genocide Jack carves a tally on her leg after every person she kills. 2:06 - 2:10 = "I gently open the door" is an infamous DDLC line which is the line directly before the Sayori hanging scene. Sayori hung herself after getting rejected by the MC, so Yuri tells Toko not to get 'hung up' on her rejection by Togami. She also plays on Jack's Japanese name, Syo. 2:10 - 2:15 = In DDLC, Yuri pees on a poem, calling it 'endowing it with her scent' and gifts it to the MC. Leon was a character in Danganronpa who killed someone in a bathroom. 2:15 - 2:18 = 'Hit the club floor' means to get onto the dance floor at a club, but Toko takes it literally, saying Yuri hit the floor of the Literature Club after stabbing herself. 2:18 - 2:26 = Alter Ego is a character in Danganronpa who is an Artificial Intelligence, which ties into the themes of DDLC. Monika altered Yuri's ego by making her much more obsessive and mentally unstable. Toko says Yuri's obsession was in vain, but wasn't pointless, because the result of Yuri's obsession was her stabbing herself.

The embarrassing part of this for Touko is that Syo cleans Yuri up but cleans TOUKO up too in the process. Like…
“When it comes to my racier tastes..”
“You stutter a single sentence…”
“Sinking low in shame, got the bookworm’s eye view”
“Your depressive obsession was just in vain”
Like, you can’t even go hard enough at Yuri SPECIFICALLY that you hit your damn alter in the crossfire?
Syo spit hard but at least Yuri made it through the battle without doing any self harm.

I still find the lyrics to be so clever and well researched for this, everything from the play-on-words to referencing some more obscure things like the tally marks and questionable stains on Yuri’s poem. Literally every line is a genius reference lol, and the voice acting is amazing, too!
“In your Teletubbie club, you’re the most unbearably clingy. No-one wants to share a weekend in a bin with Kinky Winky!- ACHOO!"

Without a doubt, Toko won. While Yuri got a few points, she wasn't the best to fight a serial killer. Because Genocide Jack cut her up quicker than any paper.
Hey that rhymes hahahah 🤣🤣🤣
Genocide only kills men
@@starpuffs she said she dont mind
Yuri is self aware like Monika and she's been seen to get extreme Monika was like the other girls but was give elevatoed access so when Monika was gone Sayori got Access so yuri could as well
yes
Here are the references I loved in this:
1. Yuri’s reference to Toko’s braids being the only “tales” (tails) she knows
2. Toko’s reference to both Monicas
3. Toko’s reference to how genocide isn’t shy like the racer girl when I comes to insults
4. Toko referencing Yuri’s name. Because in Japanese it technically means lesbian. So she’s saying she can’t get guys because she’s gay.
5. “Portrait to mark off” which references one of Yuri’s books called “portrait of markov”
6. Toko says “sinking low in shame, got the bookworm’s eye view” which means that she’s looking hard at Toko’s verses because she needs pointers, and also about Yuri’s death and Yuri’s personality.
7. Toko references alter-ego in one of the last lines which says that Monica altered Yuri’s ego by making her more psychotic
8. At the very end, Toko says her obsession wasn’t entirely pointless, because Yuri does at the end of it lol.
Understanding all of these lines actually makes it so much better

Wish this got more of Toko as Toko, considering her ultimate talent as the Ultimate Writing Prodigy she easily could've tore into Yuri as a writer.

Most people say Toko, but I say Yuri for her second verse, for me both verses matter the most and thats what make it excellent.

Jesus christ. Here I was thinking Genocider Syo only killed guys. Lmao.
Honestly
I’m a huge fan of DDLC and Danganronpa so I can’t just go with favoritism. So with that said, Toko won for me. While she had Genocide Jack’s help for a lot of it, she made some valid statements, and her raps were fire. Yuri did well too but I feel like if she had done a little bit better, she could’ve matched Toko and it would’ve been harder for me to decide a winner. However, that’s not the case, so Toko wins for me.

I agree. The beat for this battle is INCREDIBLE! Easily my favourite of the season so far.
I saw this on my recommended since I watched Harley vs Monika a lot and this just beat it.
@@lil_grim1639 Yeah, this definitely more savage, than the previous DDLC rap-battle.
EXPLAINING THE PUNCHLINES:
0:19 - 0:26 = Toko gets rejected, aka 'ghosted', by the guy she has a crush on. In DDLC, Yuri writes a poem called 'Ghost Under the Light'.
0:27 - 0:35 = Toko was locked in a closet as a child, 'skeletons in your closet' is a phrase which means secrets or trauma.
0:38 - 0:43 = Toko changes into her alter-ego Genocide Jack when she sneezes, who kills people with scissors similar to how Sweeney Todd kills with a razor.
0:53 - 0:57 = Not sure about this one, Toko might be calling Yuri spineless, because Yuri explains in DDLC that she has back pain because of her boobs.
0:58 - 1:06 = Don't know about the Teletubbies comparison here, Toko might be calling the literature club childish. Tinky Winky is a Teletubby and Yuri in Act 2 has some extreme kinks, making 'Kinky Winky'.
1:06 - 1:09 = There's a character called Monaca in Danganronpa UDG, and Toko/Genocide Jack has to destroy her pawns. Monika is also a character in DDLC, and Yuri being controlled by her could make her Monika's pawn.
1:09 - 1:14 = A mechanic in DDLC is deleting the characters' files in the actual game's files, which Monika does to Yuri to delete her from DDLC.
1:14 - 1:17 = Yuri is a Japanese genre which means love between two girls, in DDLC Yuri is not able to make the player character love her.
1:17 - 1:21 = Doki-Doki is the Japanese onomatopoeia for a heartbeat, so Toko is saying Yuri's lines are so flat she thinks that she's dead. When a character dies in Danganronpa, their presence in the courtroom is replaced by a portrait of their face, with a red X over it. In DDLC, Yuri reads a book called 'Portrait of Markov' which is important to the meta lore of the game.
1:25 - 1:29 = Bird's-eye view is a phrase which means a view fron directly above something, so a worm's-eye view would be from the ground, because Yuri is sinking low in shame. She combines this with bookworm, because Yuri reads a lot.
1:29 - 1:33 = In DDLC, Yuri makes banners for a festival. Genocide Jack uses scissors to kill people. In Act 2, Yuri gets heavily obsessed with a poem the MC gives her and presumably masturbates to it. 'Get your rocks off' is a phrase that means to orgasm. So Toko combines these three things to make a rock-paper-scissors punchline.
1:33 - 1:37 = In Act 2 of DDLC, Yuri steals a pen that the MC drops and uses it to masturbate with.
1:44 - 1:47 = "Nobody would cry if she killed herself" is a line that Yuri says about Natsuki in Act 2 of DDLC, which we later find out was Monika reprogramming Yuri's text to get the MC to hate her.
1:47 - 1:55 = In Case 2 of Danganronpa, Togami, who Toko has a crush on, framed her for murder by revealing her identity as Genocide Jack. In the bad ending for Danganronpa in Case 5, we see the possible future of the students and Toko is not there, with Togami holding up a frame portrait of her instead.
1:55 - 1:59 = Toko was asked out in middle school out of nowhere by a boy she didn't know. She spent three days planning for the date but she then found out he only asked her out because he lost a bet.
1:59 - 2:03 = Third Eye is a concept in DDLC which has yet to be explained fully, but the premise is that it allows people/characters to realise that they are in a simulation. 'Your Reality' is the ending credits song of DDLC, sung by Monika. Genocider Sho, or Syo, is the original Japanese name of Genocide Jack. At the end of Danganronpa 1, it's revealed that everything that happened was being streamed to the outside world on TV. This could also be referring to the ending of Danganronpa V3, where it's revealed that the whole series has been fiction (inside the Danganronpa universe, a second layer of fiction), and so Toko would just be a reality show character to the 'real' people in Danganronpa. Yuri is telling Toko to awaken to her Third Eye to realise she is a fictional character. EXCEPTIONALLY layered line btw, definitely my favourite.
2:03 - 2:06 = Genocide Jack carves a tally on her leg after every person she kills.
2:06 - 2:10 = "I gently open the door" is an infamous DDLC line which is the line directly before the Sayori hanging scene. Sayori hung herself after getting rejected by the MC, so Yuri tells Toko not to get 'hung up' on her rejection by Togami. She also plays on Jack's Japanese name, Syo.
2:10 - 2:15 = In DDLC, Yuri pees on a poem, calling it 'endowing it with her scent' and gifts it to the MC. Leon was a character in Danganronpa who killed someone in a bathroom.
2:15 - 2:18 = 'Hit the club floor' means to get onto the dance floor at a club, but Toko takes it literally, saying Yuri hit the floor of the Literature Club after stabbing herself.
2:18 - 2:26 = Alter Ego is a character in Danganronpa who is an Artificial Intelligence, which ties into the themes of DDLC. Monika altered Yuri's ego by making her much more obsessive and mentally unstable. Toko says Yuri's obsession was in vain, but wasn't pointless, because the result of Yuri's obsession was her stabbing herself.
omg thank you, I was a little confused so this really helped
Thank you😦
