i just relized he doesnt have a mouth so he talks and eats/drinks through his eye so thats why he loved his eye so much and hates when it has to regenerate

its a mouth with infinite space behind and a eye is in the middle of the mouth

Btw when he was telling ford about what can happen if he tells the equation, he says "a party that never ends and a host that never dies, no more restrictions, no more laws."

[@danielcurren2119]

the axolotl is cannon as bill evokes his name to "someday return" when it was "his time to burn"

[@chasethemaster3440]

This aged pretty well in the book of bill he does see the third dimension and tries to show it to others thus causing the destruction of his realm

17:43 FINALLY, SOMEONE MENTIONS THE OTHER GLOWING, FLOATING, SHAPE WITH ONE EYE

[@KayenaatSandhu-m5s]

it looks like the symbol for Freemasons. The rulers as the bottom 2 edges, and his 'eye' is the hinge of the compass as the top 2 edges.

[@tristintaylor7999]

What if a lowly triangle realized the cast system itself was a triangle, and then that lowly shape became THE triangle and gained the ability to see outside of his limited realm. He reaches out to touch the beauty of infinity, right above him and ends up accidentally destroying is universe. The realization drives him insane and he gives in to chaos

[@invisi-bullexploration2374]

I pieced together that he is in fact a child. And this is what makes him so damned deadly. It's hinted that as soon as he got his powers terrible things happened that he didn't want and that shattered his sanity. (Flatworld's end might have been an accident.) Like the original intent was to create a being that went around *helping people* and at some point Bill still may be able to do that. But not in his 'Son Wulong' phase he can't. Or won't. It's funny because of how relative things are. We see a narcissistic psychopath that wants to play with 'toys' until he gets bored with them but this could just be some cosmic figure stuck in their Terrible Two's which they will grow out of eventually.

[@Otokichi786]

Bill Cipher's 2D world reminds me of the 2D world encountered in the "Futurama" episode, "2-D Blacktop." 9:20 So, Bill Cipher was a middle class bullshuffler like, say, Fidel Castro, on a power trip? Ain't that original. Why doesn't Bill Cipher have a cadre of True Believers? We arrive at the There Can Only Be One with ultimate power idea. Bill is now at the top of the pecking order, he can manipulate/destroy any other multidimensional organism, like a "Star Trek" Q. But then, the city limits of Gravity Falls keeps the "Isosceles monster" in another kind of trap. So much for ultimate power, eh?

[@themysteriousgravityfalls]

Excellent job with the editing, you put a lot of effort in to it. Personally, the “chosen dread” theory is always the one I just assumed was the correct one. I thought that was heavily implied by the Axolotl’s poem. Excellent video, I will take this all into account for my grand theory discussing Bill’s whereabouts after the end of the show. I hope you continue to make more videos.

[@erubianwarlord8208]

in the flat land movie A. square's 4th dimensional ramblings are what cause the X and Y factions to go to war and ends up getting flatland destroyed but for one being A square falls 'through' flatland's membrane as its destroyed and ends up in the 0th dimension (seemingly inside one of the many "the ruler" of the 1th dimension) its possible that bill in A square's role could both blame himself for the destruction of the 2nd dimension (blames the Arson for the fire) and gain knowledge from passing from the 3rd to the 0th to start dimensionally clawing his way 'back up'

[@kurtzplay4095]

the book you talk about, flat land have in The Book Bill

[@celestesummers3549]

Spoiler alert for book of bill! After saying theory number two is the weakest, it actually is really close to what bill himself said about his past. While most of the stuff he says is blurred out and he can be lying to us, he basically says that he was born with the gift to see into the third dimension and wanted to share it with all the others basically because he thought is was cool. However something went wrong (this is the part that is blurred out) and everyone but him ended up dying. So life sucking being the reason he did it actually sounds about right. But something I find funny (and why I don't think he is lying to us about this) is that we do get to see a small piece of text that says something like that his hands were shaking realizing what he did can't be undone. He feels sad about what he did, even though in the show he denies it. The reason why I don't think he's lying is because the axolotl also mentions how he says he's happy but he's a liar. Now because of that denial he causes as much chaos as he can, convincing himself he's happy about what he did. So to sum up the theory Bill is depressed because his life sucked and does bad things to get dopamine. So your theory is basically right. (Yes I genuinely just wrote an entire paragraph to say that.) I could kinda see number three eventually being kinda accurate as well when more information is released. So pretty good job, man!

[@s.radiation]

FINALLY. A VIDEO ESSAY ABOUT BILL CIPHER AND FLATLAND!!! Great Video!

Also, there’s an insanely good fan-fiction called ‘Flat Dreams’ that is based on this theory, which goes into Bill’s origins. It was a influential work for me.

[@skyavenger7504]

That very interesting, thank you for the video. Also that spin was clean.

[@darknessblades]

Since flatland is flat, how would it work with multiple flatlands existing? Like with a cube, that would hold 6 flatlands on itself. or in a mobius strip, flatland would be endlessly looping in on itself

He also destroyed the first dimension, as lines are from the first dimension. And if he succeeded in breaking the weirdness barrier thus destroying the third dimension, he would've been the obliterator of all three dimensions.

The idea is there, Bill having referred to the family that adopted him as his family and when talking about them not existing anymore cuz he you know destroyed the entire dimension. That's why he has so much animosity despite referring to them as his family possibly?
