IchbineinJaeger said: I interpreted this as a guy who used a girl that was in love with him for her body (maybe even more than one) and didnt realise she was the best thing he ever had. He broke her heart and abandoned her and now the thought of losing her and every thing he did is coming back to haunt him, driving him insane.
No, that interpretation is way too feministic and American. Me!me!me! is just a social commentary about the hikikimori lifestyle in Japan.
Ah, ME!ME!ME!! Easily the most recognizable short in the Anime Expo. Got my hands on the uncensored version (never knew it was censored in the first place) and I found it to be very TITTYllating~ That intense EDM got me on edge. I like it.
Poor dude's beyond help with his anime addiction and he's well aware that it's tearing him apart. Being groped and dismembered by hundreds of identical anime girls isn't really worth it, I guess. I'd gladly comfort his girlfriend for him.
Wait...LMAO at the poster.

They got him.
Dat kiss!
Oh shit! His head.
Holy shit! That was focking amazing! Focking masterpiece.
Best of the 3 shorts so far, but I doubt anything with top this. Best music video of all time. It's been almost 3 years now and no new projects regarding it have been announced, but I wish at least 1 20 minute OVA came out. I just want more of this.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).
Really awesome, great animation, and just really all around great visuals!
“I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy
Animation was very good, I believe what they are portraying is the addiction to porn/hentai and how it can effect your life negatively and ruin your relationship with people close to you. It was good that he tried to fight that addiction but it seemed that he succumbed to it and lost in the end.
This was amazing. This is what an acid trip must feel like. Was lucky enough to watch the uncensored version.
First of all, the music was top class absoulte banger, just can't get enough of the singer's voice. The way it went from cute to sensual and sexy was just amazing. I got a raging boner from just listening to her voice. The beat changes, the drum and base uses, the vocal chops in between were really nice too, all very phenominal, this is the type of music I want in my life.
The animation was top-tier, the visuals, the color-palette were all really amazing, it was extremely visually pleasing and I'm not just talking about the fan-service, the whole video in general was very visually pleasing, watched the whole episode thrice in a row.
And as we can all see, our main girl is pretty fucking cute. We were presented with all the fan-service a horny male could ever want with the main girl in focus without going into the hentai territory.
I felt very content after watching all those booty shots, the main girl swaying her hips with little bit of panties visible, then when I didn't expect it to become more lewder, our main girl changed to just bikini and I've never been happier. And the best parts were yet to come.
Suddenly our main girl transforms into some alien or I guess she was just wearing a mask and then in the next scene only her sexual organs are covered with just a red glowing string, apparently the string was attached in her clit too which explains her moaning after the string was pulled later in the video. Just before our MC comes back to his senses we see him getting killed by boobs, cannot think of a better way to die.
The following scene was really scary not gonna lie, imagine a naked masked woman suddenly appears in your room, is chasing you, corners you, is staring at your crotch and then removes her mask, you are in wide shock with your mouth open, the woman for some reason is very horny with her bodily fluids dripping from her, she open her mouth and vomits in your open mouth. Got a boner while writing this. Plus I was having breakfast while watching this lmfao. Though I won't mind if a very hot anime girl vomits in my mouth.
The scene where our main girl is eating our MC's guts was very nice, I liked how detailed it was, uncensored versions are the best, I don't understand why someone would watch a censored version of something, why would they deprive themselves of the beauty of uncensored version?
Those were some cute liitle moans when the women were killed by our MC with his rifle in a FPS game style.
Boobies firing lasers, oh shit. I think I've now seen everything in thw world. Look how they masacarred our boy, just his head and torso remained, lucky mf should be grateful, at least he's getting kissed.
P.S. As many people are unable to distinguish between serious wrting and sarcasm, I just wanted to include that the above post was fully serious and everything I said is meant to be taken seriously. You all are welcome to judge me ;)
Now getting serious, our MC seems like a typical otaku, playes games, watches anime and reads manga. Is probably obsessed with 2d girls and is dissatisfied when the real girls aren't like 2d girls.
I'm interpreting the whole video as a call out to addictions and as a failed relationship. Will discuss both.
The first part of the song is done in a really cute voice and we see our MC smirking while looking at the pretty waifu(s) dancing and stuff, he's having the time of his life. So this is basically the starting part of a building addiction, you are enjoying, its making you very happy, you've never felt better, you are having the time of your life, in the beginning you don't know you are getting addicted, you just keep doing the same stuff, feeling good.
In the second part the music tone and the visuals both turn dark, the singer's voice going from cute to sensual and sexy. At this point you are deep into your addiction. The addiction is winning, it has taken over your life, you can't function properly without that "thing", you are fully dependent on it. It has taken full control over your life. Whether you know it or not is a different matter. But nonetheless the addiction finally wins taking your life (signified with the breasts killing our MC, breasts signify the addiction as; the waifu was the drug, our MC was getting high looking at the waifu dancing and stuff, at the end his "waifu" was the one resulting in his death, he was killed by her breasts).
Before the third part of the music starts, we see the woman come out of our MC's tablet and "the stuff" happens, I think this meant the MC finally realised that he was addicted and is remorseful.
The third part of the music video starts and this is where the failed relationship interpretation comes, in this video our MC is addicted to the idea of 2d girls, perfect girls with perfect bodies and perfect voice, devoted, caring and loving to even losers. We see at the start of the third part a slightly different woman, I'm thinking it was our MC's girlfriend. With the following shots we can interpret that our MC started comparing his gf to his 2d waifus and was dissatisfied when he found out that real girls aren't absolutely perfect like 2d girls, this can be seen with the alternating shots of the "dark waifu", MC's face and his gf. We later see MC's gf crying and MC walking away which means he broke up with his gf just because she wasn't perfect like his 2d waifus. We see him a little heart broken as he seems to realise what he did was wrong, in the next scene we see his waifu eating him signifying the addiction was successful in destoying our MC's life. Later we see MC's gf still kissing him even after all this which shows us she genuinely loved and cared for him and did eveything possible to become perfect like his 2d waifu, our MC is able to start understanding this on some level and is feeling regretful and raises his hand to "catch" his gf again but its too late, the addiction has won over his gf and the gf is now vanished behind the addiction, the gf is now gone for good.
After all this our MC has finally realised everything about his addiction and gf, shown with him screaming and crying. We then see him get into a FPS game mode signifying him trying to fight the addiction and trying to win back his normal life and gf. We see him shooting his addiction but in the end he is unsuccesfull, we later see him falling deeper into his addiction, his gf appears in front of him, he wants her back, he's reaching for her, trying to catch her, but is unable to, due to everything that has happened in the end he ends up losing his gf forever.
Our MC is left heartbroken and depressed. In the following scenes we are shown how his gf was taken away from him by his addiction, we see his gf is captured by addiction, his gf is now long gone. Addiction has won. Now its time for addiction to end MC's life too, we see our MC's waifus shooting lasers from their breasts signifying the thing he loved most is now coming to kill him. He tried to fight back, he's running away but the addiction has completely taken over, the addiction has become stronger than the MC itself. Ultimately his life is shattered, the addiction gets the better of him. The addiction has finally won.
But even after all this when he gets a chance to indulge with his addiction again, he can't help himself, he's fully dependent on addiction.
In the last scene we see our MC is blown to pieces, only his head visible now but even after all this we see him open his eyes, this shows us that no matter how much of a rock bottom you have hit, even if your addiction has won once, still there is hope, you can win against addiction and get your life in line. You don't get the solid resolve and courage to rise to the top unless you have hit the rock bottom, unless you know how shitty it is at rock bottom. Our MC has experienced all this but even after that, he has the will to go on and change his life. I hope he's able to.
If you are still reading, nice.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.
Well, the evangelion influences go really beyond the characters actually being (and various visual references) in the short. If I had to compare it to a scene in evangelion, it would be the end of 2.0, but it's kinda reversed. You could say that both end the same way, but in eva, Shinji wants to end it badly, in the short it's the contrary.
Ryiebe said: There has to be an easier way to convey how bad porn addiction is.
But that music was godly.
I wouldn't agree. Surely the phisical aspect is important, since the various referencces to smoking and bodily fluids, but as commenter pointed out, both the fake and real women are equally beautiful, so I'd say it's more about the idea. I mean the fake girl can be whatever the main character wants, while the real girl can't. So i'd say it's more about that, rather than strictly porn, but maybe I'm inserting my ideas without references in the text. If that's the case feel free to contest me.
