1:05 “Siffrin. Did you really just hit the counter and say ‘nya’?” (Also a big fan of how they look like they're made out of paper because their clapping makes the paper symbol.)
I like how the video is in monochrome to reference that everyone in the game canonically is physically incapable of perceiving color without some wish craft based shenanigans
I was trying to click on another song that I like, so that I could listen to it for like the twentieth time in the past two days, but the youtube gods intervened and decided the page wasn't finished loading, and so, I discovered another masterpiece of a song to listen as I try to finally get some rest.
Let's just get right to it. AH-!!! (Loop, Looped back as to not lose there rhythm) … Teehee… Here's a tutorial for you! [If I lose my rhythm, I can loop back!] What? Surprised You're not the only one who can loop back? Hahahaha! Have your forgotten? HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN WHO I USED TO BE? It's okay. I know you forget literally everything. That's just the kind of person You are! (Loop Dances Back Up) Stage! Lights! Action! Teehee!!! You know, in a way, I am so very proud of you! You did so good, stardust~! I am so proud, stardust~! The Universe brought you to victory~! It only had to conduct, and you followed! And I suppose, what the Universe wanted from me, was to just shut up and take it! Everyone's favorite cosmic joke! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! (Loop calls for there own encore) From main character, to stage composer, to sponsor, to corpse! The King... I could never beat him, did You know that? No matter how hard I tried, the King always outperformed me. And Yet, look how easily you outperformed him, Your first time! Oh, you may think it was easy, but just seeing you succeed... I was so blindingly angry!!! Why did You manage to outperform him this easily?! What kept me from outperforming him?!? What script was I following that kept me from victory?!? IS THAT WHAT THE UNIVERSE WANTED FROM ME?!? THE UNIVERSE, THE STARS, THE KING... OUR COUNTRY... I HATE THEM ALL!!! I HATE THEM!!! THEY CAN ALL DIE!!! (Loop preforms a sick beat) AND THE CURTAINS OPEN ONCE MORE. … I finally saw Your bandmates, earlier. … I did really well, this whole time. Made sure they never saw me. Made sure I never saw them. Those pale copies of the band I knew. I didn't want to see them, ever again. Didn't want to know. Hah, can You believe, I forgot their names, for a time? Despair and trauma does that to You, sometimes, doesn't it? But... I had to talk to them, didn't I? I was ready to tell them everything... Tell them who I was, what happened to me, that they had to go after you. . . And Yet... And Yet, when they saw me... It was like they were looking at a stranger. can You imagine how it feels, starnote? (Loop crafts various sounds to keep up with the universes rhythm) I loved them… I loved them… I loved them...!!! And Yet, they didn't recognize me!!! Didn't remember me!!! Because, it never happened to me, did it? Because, it never happened to me, did it? It happened to you!!! You're the one who got their perfect ending!!!!!! This... Remembering the times I composed with them, when they can't remember me, this is worse! This is worse than forgetting!!!!!! I wish I could forget, starnote!!!!!! Ooooh, starnote, do you know how this feels? Can you imagine it? DO YOU KNOW HOW IT FEELS, TO KNOW THAT SOME COPY OF YOU WON, AND YOU'RE LEFT WITH NOTHING?!? MIRABELLE... ISABEAU... ODILE... BONNIE...!!!!!! THEY WERE MINE, THEY WERE MINE, THEY WERE MINE!!!!!! THEY WERE MINE FIRST!!!!!! AND YOU STOLE THEM FROM ME!!!!!! (Loop preformed for the universe) AH--!!! (Loop hit a sour note!!!) (Seeing the opening, You strike.)
I love all the detail put into this! The red showing up when the number of loops changes to "Loop ???" and the loop numbers starting to skip like loop 67 to loop 80 are both nice touches. I also love that it ends on the coin flip too! Very nicely done!
i thought there being no color was a stylistic decision until i remembered it was lore accurate lol. i still need to replay the game (loop it if you will) and find out how to fight loop.
