The old man actually died from a fire at 3 o clock. The couple's faces were red and melted because they died in the fire as well. It was the old man's spirit that was going around carrying out his last wishes, which is why the ice cream man didn't notice him. The coffee cup being thrown out of the window was his final cry for help. The symbol for civil defence firefighting is a letter Y. translated from ぱよぱよこぱよ
草｛Free Music}mobile music creator 冒頭、顔の真っ黒な（才能のかたまり）女性との対比となっているんだと思う。喫茶店マスターはY（クリエイターとして生きていこうと日々知識や技術を吸収しムキムキの体になっているが今ひとつ明確な指針が得られず主人公、中年男を参考にしている）のような男の一つの結末ではないかと。もはや色眼鏡（クリエイターとしてのこだわりや信念）もかけておらず、妥協し、体制に屈し才能を搾取、使い捨てる側に廻ってしまった。とオレは解釈しました。 鴨（商業ベースではなく純粋に表現したいもの作り、それをつまみ食い感覚で無料で享受する人たち）との対比は２：３０見事に花を咲かせた木に集まる品の良さそうな小鳥（素晴らしい作品に上質な客→中年男のクリエイターとして生きていく理想の形、と同時に鴨との関係も嫌いではない→この後監視者に見つかりその信念（色眼鏡）を砕かれる→会社をクビになるyou are fired)なのだと思う。
Very confusing but I really enjoyed it. After watching it the second time it shows he actually died that morning. So when he left his apartment i assume he’s a ghost, hence all the weird things he can do and how he couldnt grab the ice cream, when he goes back to his apartment he sees its on fire (he didnt turn off the stove that morning after his coffee?) and his burning body joins him downstairs and they go and get coffee. And the nosey neighbor...well idk, maybe he was foreshadowing this whole video, “WHY”
Nice angle, I never saw it that way. Sorry if you've seen this before in this very comment section but here goes: My interpretation is that the burning man is his past past life that is already gone and destroyed (burnt bridges and all that). As for the title and relating it to the part when he said "I like ducks", I think Q rais is going for "just because you like them, does not mean you know what's best for them" because as we can see, the sign says not to feed the ducks. The reasons behind that might not be explained but the locals and their government knows what's best for the place and how some things should stay a certain way and be preserved kinda like "Please flush the toilet after use", to most it sounds dumb to give such an obvious instruction but it took some time before they even felt the need to put the sign i.e the ratio of people not flushing it over flushing it is too unbalanced, slanting towards the negative side. Him being a giant is kinda like showing an abridged version of travelling because everything is new to him due to his naïvety like travelling through a Final Fantasy map for the first time, he leaps and past through so much without even learning of the background, the beauty and the culture surrounding the areas he travels through. The ending is because as he was blind going through life, even after he have grown older and supposedly wiser, because he relied so much on his glasses, he end up blind to the fact that his life is destroyed and continues to do things exactly how he has always done. The "Y" guy is a person who looks from afar but never bothered to actually advice the main character and him being a coffee is to show that by not saying anything at all and get angry from afar or say bad things behind his back (the heavy breathing) is actually fueling his toxic behaviour and thus he will never learn to be better. The couple look similar to one another because no matter where anyone goes, there will always be an archetype of the same kind of people in any society especially when none of them do anything different like again, actually talking to the main character and actually function as a society so that everyone can grow together. They get the glass to their heads because they are useless and is treated as such at the same time, it is showing how the main character think that it is all society's fault for whatever happened to him. Oh yeah, there will always be the Y guy too because by not beating them (try to change his attitude), the Y guy joins them. By them, I mean the main character who could be anyone and by anyone, I think Q rais is talking about us layman.
