[@vnnlovesparis]

In my POV, I think the story behind this is that in this village where White lives, there's a belief (shown on the mural) that the Black Swan will come and take all the young boys with white hair away. Thus, before their coming of age, White was raised as a girl to prevent this from happening but they ended up embracing it anyway. White ended up running into the Black Swan one day but soon found out that she wasn't anything like in the mural at all. They became friends and then slowly their relationship blossomed. After White's coming of age ceremony, they immidiately went to the Black Swan to confess and since then the two become each other's (as shown in their exchanged braid of hair).

[@glazeddonuts_]

I think this theory fits beautifully. Especially since in that last scene the boy becomes taller than black swan. Thanks for explaining!

[@naguisaua2512]

@@nishibrisko06 I think the black character, who is supposed to be a Black Swan, is a girl, while the White haired character, is a boy - you can see he has no breasts when he takes this clothes off. Of course, it could be that this White haired character is a girl with small to no breast development. The idea of dressing the White character as a girl is probably related to the beliefs of this village - as I think that they actually marry one white haired person to the black swan, in order to prevent this mythical creature from kidnapping people from the village, they dress the sacrifice with girl clothes to symbolize he/she is the swan's bride.

[@gingaillust_]

Still can't get over the scene at 5:00, the white-haired boy used to be shorter than the black swan so they looked down out of habit but then realize he has grown much taller now. That scene conveys so much emotions even without a single word being uttered, it's a goddamn masterpiece qwq

Notice how at the end of the MV, the White one is taller than the black swan... the time goes forward for him, but she seems to be someone who experiences time much differently (in the montage with bones and flowers, rebirth from egg like a phoenix). He is for sure just a human man and will leave her at a certain point (as human life is short), while she will keep on going through death and rebirth cycles... At the very start she might have been sulking because she understands if she gets attached, she will suffer after he is gone... But at the end, she probably just accepted it and tried to enjoy the - to her- brief walk with him, so he would not worry. Hence, the head gestures - he asked her what is wrong and stopped, she just said "nothing" ... with wet eyes, staring at him lovingly. She was just happy to be there with the White dude... it might or might not have happened before that she liked a human from that village. Even if they are destined to part when he dies as a human being - I guess the MV was also about enjoying the moment with someone, no matter what lies ahead..(I guess?).I like how this story can be interpreted on several views, details emerge with each more view...

for everyone asking: In the video it appears that the white-hair is most likely male. There is no evidence on which black is, or if they're simply genderless as they seem to be a kind of mystical creature. Regardless, the main focus of the video is the love between the two. White meets black as part of a ritual based on a prophecy. It is about a relationship that stretches beyond the races of the two (human and non-human; black swan). Black is hesitant and fears that white won't accept the non-human part of themselves, but as the seasons pass embraces the happiness of meeting white, and they become a pair as seen by giving locks of hair to each other. There is a simple beauty in seeing their love grow over the seasons. Race or gender never hindered them in the end; they just love to be with each other.

this mv is absolutely beautiful. the interpretation of the story is free, but i interpreted it as a kind of "forbidden" love story. the black swan, a girl, is part of the legend of that village, where she catches the little boys with white hair. then, snow white, a boy (i suppose, 'cause of the scene where he removes his clothes and has no chest), dresses like a 'girl' so as not to be "kidnapped" by the swan of the legend. in the end, his curiosity was greater and he went in search of the swan, ending up falling in love (both, as you can see at the end). my favorite part is at the end when they are in the sand and snow white has short hair and is taller (with those traits i also assumed it was a boy, but idk), and they are both smiling. regardless of the actual gender of the characters, this is a very beautiful story and the animation is amazing. it could be two girls, two boys or a boy and a girl, as i interpreted it, but that doesn't matter, the story itself carries great meaning. thanks eve for another work of art.

[@capybaraenjoyer]

I think the getting taller part is a way of showing how mortal life flows and changes meanwhile the black swan stays the same

[@spikedstaticwater]

I like to think in the end she is shaking her head because the boy is wanting to go back with her (hence the short hair, dressing more like a boy to go along with the 'kidnaps boys' story) but she shakes her head because she wants him to live a happy life with the people

the ending scene with them walking together, having an earring of each other's hair, with the black haired person now looking up to the white haired person is so lovely but also bittersweet to me. life obviously just moves on and around without the spirit (that shot of them surrounded by the skeletons of those long dead; one might even say they are used to being left behind) and our lovely white haired mortal is by definition all about change bc that is life itself (the different haircuts, the shot of them clutching their throat.. their voice starting to change?); but its okay because the time still spent with each other is worth it, worth everything. editing bc i forgot to say: another banger as always, eve. what a wonderful gift this holiday season

[@pawseds]

I think the character with black hair is inspired by the Swan of Tuonela, and it's pretty cool to see that Finnish mythology in a Japanese music video! If I'm not mistaken, the swan of tuonela (portrayed as a black swan) is some sort of guard/creature of the Finnish underworld/afterlife. It carries souls to the bottom of the watery afterlife where souls will stay there in eternal slumber, hence the black-haired guy being underwater at first, and the swans at the start of the song. Plus the village kinda looks Nordic-inspired, so that's pretty cool!

自分の考察です！ 壁画が表すのは、この民族には『冬を退ける為に、冬の神(黒い子)に一人白い子供(白い子)を生け贄に捧げる』風習がある。(1:14) 生け贄に捧げるとき、嫁入りのような形式を取るため、白い子は男の子だけど髪を伸ばし女物の服を身に纏っている。 ある日、白い子い黒い子に出会い、それから仲良くなっていく。(1:40)黒い子も白い子に引かれていくが、将来的に生け贄として白い子を貰うことに不安を覚える(2:15)(今の彼の生活から引き剥がしてしまうため？辛い道のりになるため？)。 白い子が服を脱ぐシーンで喉を触っていることから、声変わりが始まり、嫁入りの時が近いことを察している？(2:27)(子供を捧げなければならないので声変わりが終わるとダメ？) 黒い子は生まれつき呪い(魔法)を受けていて、春に憧れるが、実際は氷の水の中、吹雪、そして死を司っている(2:49) 嫁入りの祭り(生け贄を捧げる祭り)が始まる。 蝋燭を掲げた先にあるのは、春の神様（白い羽を持ち、服に草花をあしらわれている)(3:12) 嫁入りの一晩が過ぎる(明言を控えるが、儀式をする)(3:33) 儀式が終わり、黒い子は完全に呪いを受け(肌の色が変わり、黒い毛がはえてくる)、冬の神になる(つまり、この民族の風習とは『黒い子に白い子を生け贄として捧げ、冬を背負わせて完全な人外にし村から追い出すことで春を得る』ものである。)。(3:52) 黒い子は白い子を手放し、一人で行こうとするが、白い子は黒い子の手を取り｢一緒に行きたい｣と言う。(3:56) こうして、2人は冬の世界を永遠と旅をする。(耳飾りにお互いの三つ編みした髪をつけてる。かわいい。）白い子は髪を短く切り、成長して身長が伸びている。黒い子は幸せそうに笑う(かわいい)。(4:52) 何年か経ち黒い子の呪い(魔法)は解け、2人は春の世界で楽しく暮らす。(0:01)

[@きんぴらごぼう-z3o]

不確定な箇所 白い子は人間だったが、黒い子と一緒にいることで不老になった →なぜラストのシーンで身長が伸びていたのか？ →一緒にいることでだんだん神性が移ったから？ （呪い(魔法)が2、3年で解けるとは思えないので、人間のままとは考えにくい） 黒い子は元々人外？(2:37)(羽をもっているため、鳥類のように卵から生まれた) 最初火山にいるため、かなり古からの神？ →考察と噛み合わない →何回も繰り返してきた？(寄せては引いていく波の表現) 最初に海からやって来たことから、移動しすこし滞在するルーティーンをずっと続けている。(？) 個人的に、童話の『雪の女王』をモデルにしていると思っていて、（『雪の女王』では、悪魔の鏡の破片がカイに突き刺さり、その呪いでカイが変わってしまったが、ゲルダの愛による涙で洗い流される） ずっと溶けなかった黒い子の呪いが、白い子の愛情によって解けたという話だと思っています。 黒い子が不安そうな表情を覗かせたのは、「今までの生け贄たちは、離れていってしまったので、心引かれるこの子もいつか離れてしまう」と考えたからではないでしょうか。 ずっと一緒にいれて、幸せそうに笑う2人が本当にかわいい。

[@きんぴらごぼう-z3o]

When an MV has better animation than most seasonal anime, you know you've struck gold

[@sillyd0g]

it's actually not surprising for an mv to have better quality animation. if an entire season of an anime had this high quality of animation for the entire show their budget would have to be insane. but for a 5 minute music video you can maintain this level of detail and quality.

The black char looks like a god of some kind whereas the white one is human. Seems the story of falling in love with a god. Also in the last scene her height is greater than the black one, looking like she has aged. The in between ritual also looks like a ritual to me too where they are sacrificing one of them to the god they worship.

It can also be left ambiguoys since the MV is directly using mixed Nlrdic folklore and pagan beliefs, where depending on the country, the characters would have different genders. While the artist confirmed the white character here to be male, he is depicted as Saint Lucia, a maiden who brings light to the darkness, which is almost exclusively depicted as being female.

This comment is probably going to get buried, but I wanted to post some information about the background of this MV and my personal interpretation of some of it here. Most of this was originally part of a large comment thread, but the original comment was deleted, so I'm compiling and reposting it here for anyone curious for further discussion who happens to stumble across it: From my understanding, a lot of this is based on Nordic mythology and tradition. The black-haired person represents the Lady of the Lake (seen at 0:39), who is specified in Nordic folklore to be a female water spirit. At 3:04, we see the white-haired person wearing white robes and carrying candles, which seems to take inspiration from the Lucia tradition from Nordic cultures. It's a bit much to explain here so I won't get into the details, but Lucia is supposedly the ancient bearer of light for the dark Nordic winters. She is always depicted as female, and is based on the real historical figure Saint Lucia, who was a female Christian martyr. All this is to say that at the very least, both figures that the two characters in the MV are inspired by are traditionally female, so despite their androgynous appearance, I think they're meant to be women (or at least feminine). The question of the gender of our main characters (especially the white-haired person) seems to be a popular topic of discussion. In particular, we see at 2:31 that the white-haired character is depicted with a flat chest and possibly an Adam's apple. I will also note that at 2:28, the white-haired person seems to be taking off a dress-not just a long robe-which is an interesting detail since dresses are obviously a traditionally feminine piece of clothing, even within Nordic tradition and culture. I think this could be interpreted in many ways (perhaps she's a transgender woman?), but perhaps the ambiguity around the white-haired character's gender is meant to make the character more relatable to a broader audience. Though I can't say for sure, these details were definitely a deliberate choice on the artist's behalf. If you ask me though, I personally believe that this is just a way to provide some semblance of queer representation while providing an outlet for plausible deniability in the case of some sort of homophobic backlash. I think this is sort of a common trend with queer representation in Japanese media, which is understandable considering the generally more conservative culture. I don't want to accuse anyone involved in the production of this music video of "copping out" of explicit LGBTQ representation, since I understand this is just an unfortunate consequence of producing anything in a society where homophobia can influence consumer decisions (we see this all the time in Western media too!). I still think this MV is really beautiful! I just wish we lived in a world where queer relationships being depicted as ambiguous wasn't normalized or necessary.

[@yun4yra]

It's inevitable not to feel sad when listening to Eve's songs. I lost a friend recently to suicide, and he loved his music. After he left, I started listening to his songs, I felt a huge pain and guilt for not saying goodbye properly, for not being able to help him... Listening to Eve's music makes me carry a part of him in me, somehow. I miss you, Samuel. I miss you so much.
