I think the song is happy and ahri is depressed because she can’t be herself and doesn’t want to sing this cutesy song But she feels like she’s in hell because she feels like she has too which is great because the lyrics on their own are depressing but the best is happy

[@foxoncatnip1177]

She is singing to herself to cheer herself up. The pressure of being at the top gives her some insecurities. That is why the song is happy. She is proud of K/DA and tries to cheer herself that she actually has success and she will stay at the top, which is hard to do. It's dark and emotional, that is why they made that contrast.

[@foxoncatnip1177]

She is a bit smiling after the bridge of the song where she kinda blooms and escapes the sphere. Just a bit, but what really gave me that vibe is the paper on the floor under the heel saying that they will be only one hit success and after it the sassy walk and the accent put on K/DA photos in the background.

I thought the contrast between the song and the visuals were on purpose. The song represents the happy, clean product she has to present to the world while the visuals represent how she feels on the inside. Basically the tragedy of all K-Pop stars.

[@tepuntopunto]

KDA Ahri has a "happy facade" just like all kpop idols that suffer when the cameras are off. Making a refference to her original lore where she is the most beautiful thing youve ever seen yet she hurts inside for her nature.

[@akali9162]

Her song is about self doubt and depression. When she first started out as a popstar (what she always wanted to be) she was with producers who forced her to sing lyrics that weren't her own, dye her hair etc. It's about having the strength to choose other paths if YOU aren't happy with the way things are going. But even after forming K/DA with the other girls you have toxic environments (media trying to bring you down "onehit wonder?") and even if u are someone else on the outside (what fans can see) it doesn't mean everything is fine inside (seeing "behind the scenes" in the MV). But with K/DA, where they can produce whatever they want, she can tell stories she always wanted to tell: For people who are like her, it's all about becoming who you want to be. You don't have to fix the "broken glass", because there will always be people who will try to make it break (even if it's urself aka self doubt, stage fright etc.). You absorb all this and get stronger, it gets a part of you and it will form a strong person who follows its passion. The positive parts are at the end: her "blooming" on top of the flower, showing all her tails, performing on stage, opening the cage (quiting her job/working with toxic companies that manipulate ...) and seeing herself in the mirror/glass that's now part of her getting stronger and more confident.(2)( i just copy and paste this in case u don't understand Ahri's concept video :) )

[@alfredeh9766]

Yeah... already read the comic about her.. The producer/manager did forced her to sing the lyrics that werent her own and always keeping promises about getting her own lyrics/song out and Ahri said "Youve promised that for the last year" after that shes with Eve at restaurant, she told her that she's breaking her contract and start a new group, produce by herself(Ahri) and lead it with Eve.

It represent's ahri's life. Losing everything and finding herself Her lover in og ahri, her friends in starguardian, and herself in popstar and before that. Now she finds and shows herself in k/da

[@jolie2185]

I'm not sure if anyone explained this but, I'll Show You is about the struggle that Ahri has to go through to do her music The music is cheerful but the lyrics themself show how she is sad and lonely and depressed because her ideas aren't being acknowledged. I feel this because I wasn't very acknowledged with dancing. I'm a great dancer but my ideas didn't fit with a lot of people. Aside from, Ahri does what she can to be able to do what she loves which I kinda think is to perform. She talks about breaking out of her contract and being free and doing what she wants with her career. The song is also about her memories with the other girls, Akali, Kai'sa and Eve. Some of the lyrics are about how depressed she is but there are others that is about how she's doing what she can to over this depression and what others want her to do. She showing what she's made of by trying to give her point of view on how she sees the world. Not only that, if you look at the visuals carefully, you'll see how the song is also a reflection off of KDA as a group as well. "One Hit Wonders?" is an example of this. Not only that, but the lyrics "Hard on myself, put my heart on the shelf cause I forget that myself needs lovin" say that she's putting her feelings aside for others needs. Again, I feel this way cause I felt like everyone's doormat. I still feel this way but Ahri is trying to learn that it's okay to take care of herself from time to time. I apologize for this long explanation. I hope you don't mind it.

[@dhannyyywildrift]

This is how some Kpop songs are made. It may sound happy upbeat but when you get to the translation it has some messed up dark meaning.

That's my opinion what do you say?

[@felixfam0481]

I mostly agree with you, it seems like she is forcing herself to do a lot of things here and she keeps looking at her past self, but I think she might be going through something, she already said she didint agree with this song and it doesn't represent her accurately, and mabye the visual is supposed to be her way of "crying out" without saying it in the song

[@cnner1997]

I think that the video matches well because this song is a song of hope and overcoming everything that comes with fame like insecurities and doubts The dark and cold atmosphere where she's in a neon ball and later in an ice cube shows where she is mentally and how she probably feels scared, worried, frozen, stuck, cold) You also see some newspapers about pop/stars with one calling Kda a one hit wonder But as the song progresses you see her walk down a hallway to the stage (kind of like her overcoming her feelings) And as the last chorus plays the lights shining on her on stage and how the neon ball opens up with all her tails out shows her overcoming her doubts and anxieties

[@gloomfruit]

As someone with depression I really liked this song and the video. Ahri inside feels upset, somewhat depressed, tangled up in her past. The song is the polar opposite. When you have depression or a mental illness, the song outside doesn't match what's happening in your head. I know she's not canonically mentally ill or anything, but it helped me love this song and KDA's Ahri so much more because I love feeling represented. Please look below the surface

[@reinasarnai]

This song is her song to her ex-label: she’s reminiscing about her past, while facing her fear of breaking her contract. She wanted to be herself and leave that hell, hense forming kda. “She’ll show them what she’s made of, yes she’s got fears but she’ll face them” and sometimes because of her arguments with her fellow members she “drops, sits on the floor, thinking she’ll stop and can’t take it anymore”

[@jamthoughts]

The Contrast between the song and the visual is the real reason that makes this concept video good. Eve and Ahri's concept video showed what they really are. Good Job Rito! But,,, you did kaisa and akali dirty 🥺

[@coltonmartin7755]

I'm assuming that they didn't animate Kai'sa's video because they wanted a choreography based video and with how intricate and hard the movements are, animating it wouldn't look right. In "Drum Go Dum", the movements flow very well and unlike human limbs, 3D models can't move as smoothly, making the dance look stiff. In "More" when they are doing the hand movement going down their body like waves on the line "More than enough add it up and away." yes the hands are flowing correctly at the wrists, but their hands are still and stiff. That's why I'm pretty sure they wanted to focus on each members personality, so why Eve and Ahri got animated videos are able to show their personality, Akali got a lyric video because her personality is shown through her raps and Kai'sa got a dance video. (At least thats how it felt to me)

Because we all expect her song to be some great thing, we got the exact opposite, also the oth songs were made to their respective members and what they feel kaisa is free and up beat , Akali is well Akali, Evelyn is dark and mysterious but also sexy as all hell , and now A'hri is depressed because of the expectations that the world has of her and her group, while we all had expectations on K/DA i think A'hri puts all that pressure on herself because she's the leader, yeah she doesn't necessarily have to and it could be put on all of them but i think she knows that if she let her friends take on the pressure then their performances would also look and show the exact opposite of what they want to show, all in all it's not a bad song and it's saying that K/DA is not a one hit wonder and that they are here to stay not because we say so but because she says so, we don't control her narrative anymore

[@prince_chavv02]

She showed them in More, but only once (they were hidden in the pink smoke before the first chorus). I think it was because the shots of the video were really focused on group dance and dynamic (her tails would've blocked a member or cluttered the shot a bit much) and for her solo shots, she was sitting on the throne so she just had one tail out.

[@hangngo168]

@@prince_chavv02 I knew but thanks

[@tolidragontolifly]

I'm not sure if I can correctly state my point of view. It seems to me that the main idea is depression itself. Before you overcome this and find the strength to fight, you suffer and worry about something. In this case, Ari clearly experienced external pressure or negativity. She digested it and vowed to show what she was made of. And that it won't break her. Thus, the positive side is praised, and the visual image shows what she had to go through before she decided to fight.

[@nathanharirie6243]

The video/song is about depression/dealing with toxic fans. Ahri herself being shy, not having the job she liked and even after she formed K/DA with the other girls and got a hit (Popstars): You can see the newspaper "One hit wonder?", people trying to bring you down or not seeing what work you put in. Ahri's song is about overcoming all this, not letting others tell you how to live and becoming the person you want to be.

[@Thesmus]

i kinda get the "vid is sad, music is happy" but i thought that these contrasts are not uncommon. upbeat songs with gloomy or dark lyrics. i think it's kinda like that in here. and for me, the song has that vibe of upbeatness but kinda have emotional weight in them "i'll show you what i'm made of" is kind of a cry honestly

The contrast between the song and the visuals is so pronounced that there's no way it wasn't done intentionally.

Actually it very fit if u ever suffer from depression. Its not a beautiful world, with shining light and warm. It deep, dark and empty. And riot put alot of hint about that, both in lyric and this CV. It's encourage song, but not total happy and cheering at all. And in the point of Ahri views, she suffer from public, from fans, from demanding to her that she need to be like this like that. She also suffer from not good enough, not talented enough (for example the paper with title 1 hit wonder). The whole song is about she recovering from her depression inside her mind, find pieces of what she made of (like childhood when she was just a student, fill with passion).

I am more surprised of how... dark her lore in popstar is... it makes me think, because that skin is reference to Girls Generation and I am a big fan of them... so yeah...

[@twentyonetortas5921]

I've read the k/da comics is there more lore to her popstar skin or something? is there a link for this?

Kaisa's song and dance is already in just dance 2021 so all is good. The budget literally went to that.

[@knoxxhat3009]

What if all of this is just preparation for when she made a single about what she wants to sing and it expresses what she really is. I like how different the visuals are to how the song sounds, like she's leaving us message to what she will do next.

The funny thing is, Ahri's video was darker than Evalynn's.

[@nearly_blind1017]

It Is happy because the song is about overcoming the problems (correct me if I‘m completely wrong guys)

[@chesscake7362]

So did she try turning the Captions on???

[@nicoleselto5386]

I don't thing so...

[@vapersmith7859]

This reaction is a bit harsh but warranted to an extent as I do feel that the Ahri video had more potential granted this video looks better from a different angle. This reaction I can imagine would be the same one that Evelynn would have if she examined this video because for some reason Dinka reminds me especially when she examined the Evelynn video in a way of Evelynn herself in some kind of altered state. A very interesting take nonetheless I do feel that Ahri could be in a situation where she is depressed because of the rivalry between her and her costars is probably fierce enough alone to start some kind of war in itself.

lol didn't think that many people would be so salty about the worst song in the ep not getting an animated concept video But I'm more than happy to us the salt to season the delicious meal that is I'll show you and it got the animation it deserved as it's tied with more for the best song in the ep

[@Paul20661]

This one's actually pretty good

[@jeeveyopella2932]

It hurts my black black heart hahahaah queen

[@musabo9893]

I think the song isn’t a happy song like yall normies think. I think it actually fits.

[@yoonsejk5843]

i agree with u, the song couldve been so much better, more dark and badass. Ur eyebrows look amazing tho

[@christiancolasito8266]

I think this song is about her wanting to be her true self, but she's afraid that her fans might not like who she is. She is naturally dark haired, but she dyed her hair, and maybe change her personality so that people will like her. Now she's struggling whether to be her true self, or keep on acting.

[@Realidade-V]

Ahri should sings to Pentakill, it would be insane...

[@sexcannonmusic284]

The visuals and the song's "vibe" being pretty much the opposite of each other are extremely intentional.

[@laranitaloca6913]

Ahri is sad cuz she cant afford washers so she go to public ones

[@stuartstedman7015]

I understand that the visuals, the lyrics, and sound are meant to contrast, but I really don’t feel like they found the right balance. I think it could have been really heart wrenching or amazing if the sound, lyrics, and video were all simultaneously dark for a brief bit so that there would be contrast within the contrast (like how the seraphine bit of More grinded the song to a halt). that way, the dissonant parts between the song and the video could have felt disconcerting and sad and not just mismatched. For the people who think tenebrix “just didn’t get it” it’s partially on the artist to help the viewer “get it” and I don’t think everything worked together to make this dark yet happy sounding Ahri easy to get for everyone.
