Exploring the Darkest Visual Novel: The Song of Saya

[@fuzzipink]

My question was always, how the heck did Fuminori see himself in the mirror? If normal things appeared grotesque, and if actual grotesque things appeared as “normal” to him, wouldn’t he also see himself as some disgusting monster?

[@oohoohahahmonky9360]

perhaps he views himself as something grotesque as well?

[@adiazrue5776]

I think he hate himself so his normal appearance is already grotesque enough for him lmao

ive been hearing about this vn for years and yesterday i finally decided to stop being lazy and read - definitely enjoyed it lmfao i will say that i had the same problem you had when reading the saya grape scene as i wondered how a creature like her could just succumb to something like that??? maybe they were trying to make a point of her being a bit too trusting of that stranger in that moment, i have no idea really but i found it more humorous than they intended im sure

[@bblasb]

iirc every time saya's shown to win a fight she had the element of surprise, but that time the neighbour had it by a longshot. there's probably also the fact that he's being fuelled by extreme hatred

[@Strix2031]

From the novel its said that she is phisically quite weak despite being...whatever she is and that the big advantage her species has is that their appearance is so frightening that people freeze or panic. Both the Kijo guy and the doctor go permanently insane from seing the creature(The doctor even implies he could go back tho his normal life eventually if he just quit before seing Saya's true form.

[@papyrusse.]

She usually take her opponent by surprise, this Time this was a man who had nothing else to lose and who was fuelled by hatred and Hope to leave this "hell". Even fuminori said she couldn't do anything against a man without the surprise effect (wich is why she couldn't hunt Koji alone, Koji knew about Saya, well at least Fuminori thought he knew what Saya was because of his bluff, so Fuminori thought she couldn't do anything against Koji if he wasn't surprised, wich is also why they used Yoh as a Trap)

[@wollyram6248]

I used to troll friends by suggesting Song of Saya as a good entry level VN... Looking forward to part 2.

[@charlottewiltshire6076]

Except that it kinda is? It's relatively short (~10 hours for all endings), containts little to no "anime bullshit" (i.e things that require you to be very familiar with japanese writing tropes in order to not feel extremely grating/out of place) and has great atmosphere, characters and story. So, yeah, by all intents and purposes Saya no Uta *is* a great entry-level visual novel: in fact, I literally did recommend it to someone who never had any experience with VNs just a couple of months ago. Many of my friends greatly enjoyed it as well. The only reason why it could be considered *not* a good entry point is because of it's explicit themes, and to that I say - people are way too weak and narrow-minded nowadays. There is a lot I could say on this topic (most of which would result in this comment being shadowbanned/deleted), but in general, being as objective as possible and disregarding my own opinions on the matter: *this is horror*, it is supposed to be uncomfortable, get over it. If you feel that way while playing Saya no Uta - congratulations, everything is working as intended.

[@Chuck_Shurley]

Was actually my first VN, love it, hate it. Soon found out it is an 'entry-level f-up vn' and now looking for something harder. But everything I stumble upon seem to be another gore and disgusting stuff, but other than that not really interesting, so I'm still in search

[@OneManCast]

I find that the Song of Saya's got a lot of underrated aspects to it. Like how one of the commenters mentions all of Fuminori's "friends" (which imo is a bit of a missed opportunity to show some tragedy to this, since we never got shown the value of their bond) but another underrated facet is Fuminori's aversion to the mental health system. I think its damning of our mental institutions and their oppressive nature for a field that's supposed to help the mentally ill and the neurodivergent. And its not like Fuminori's situation is unique. War veterans deal with a similar condition, as PTSD and shell shock override a normal perception in life after war. Yet the general reaction is to avoid a profession designed to help? It shows how the mental health field has fallen if the reaction to the mental health field is aversion.

[@changvasejarik62]

The IDW comic revealed Fuminori’s condition and saya herself were part of a twisted experiment. A part of me wonders if canon Fuminori thought the same thing? With everything else I can believe in him developing an unhealthy paranoia. The IDW comic also gave saya a true form which I wish the visual novel gave us. Not a still picture but like a couple artist renditions by people catching a glimpse of her.

[@Scarshadow666]

Very true! Shows how much psychology and psychiatry still have a long ways to go, as well as a lot of societies/cultures when it comes to the nature of mental health! Stigmatization and both fields of studies used to be a lot worse, but they're still young fields of study and there's still a lot that needs to be done better!

[@natckwan]

I don't blame him for wanting to avoid the mental institution, probably because they won't be able to cure him. He'll just end up in a loony bin for the rest of his life or be an experimental guinea pig. Only Saya could cure his condition, but that's because she's an eldritch monster and has intelligence beyond human understanding.

[@WoodlandMorning]

This was recommended by the old Zero Punctuation guys on a "games you probably have not tried" episode. It was my second VN after Katawa Shoujo. I think that the scene you complained about was necessary to push Fuminori over the edge. There was no going back after that. This is why the first choice of the game is right after it. If you try to go back on murdering a dude, you get the bad ending. As for it making sense, well, I have an idea (spoiler). The only excuse I can think of is that perhaps in her head it was her "role" to be victimized. In the notes left by the doctor, he theorized that she had to have learned the idea of love from the books she was reading, since it otherwise wouldn't have made sense for her species. Perhaps putting herself into this kind of position was something she did subconsciously to fully convict Fuminori, or more generally, as a woman. The only other people she victimizes are women.

[@TheMightyPika]

A detail I like is that the three "friends" are horrible people, but they're horrible in this way that is seen as normal behavior (particularly in Japanese culture). The status quo is everything. Maintining 'normality' is the purpose for life. You need to find an archetype to slip into, act that archetype to its fullest, and not think any further than that. If something occurs that isn't in the archetype (cough empathy cough) they just don't deal with it. Omi is 'the mean one', the tsundere. Empathy for a friend losing his family and having mental health issues isn't in her archetype so she acts like a pushy jerk, entering his house when he's not home, judging his lawn care, it's psychotic. Koji is dismissive of his suffering friend because he just doesn't want to deal with it. I believe Koji says something akin to "His family died three whole months ago, he should be over it by now." How sociopathic is that?? The bizarre way he reacts when the doctor saves him is like a ranting toddler. he is more upset by the fact that she isn't like her first impressions (She isn't following her predictable archetype, which upsets him) than he is with Fuminori trying to kill him. It's jarring and uncomfortable. Yoh is... gross. She's weak and demure but her design is sexualized in this vulgar way of someone who doesn't know how to properly dress themselves. She asks Fumonori out, his family die, then three months later she's all "Ok enough time has passed do you like me or not?" What an insensitive, selfish thing to say. She later enters a dangerous house because a disembodied voice told her to - no other reason. She's passive to the point where you feel disgusted by her - how can someone have this little personal agency? I like to think that the 'gore world' that Fuminori experiences strips away the falsehoods to an exaggerated degree. His friends are monsterous because they're fake. They have fake personalities and are each repulsive in their lack of empathy and reflection, so he sees them as just as monsterous and hostile as everything else.

[@neeul4hi]

[@abd-animation-22]

I am so glad i found this video Thank you so much for making it I love pleasing my morbid curiosity

[@RosariaBestGirl]

Lore wise I think you are quite correct about the Yosuke sex scene, they should have added more details to make it have no plotholes in retrospect. However they do clarify later on that she is actually a very small monster and the majority of her combat prowess comes from the element of surprise as opposed to *being* surprised. To the point I could actually see this being realistic enough for the story as she has probably never experienced fear or surprise and when it was happening it didn't take me out of the experience all that much. Yes, it could have been done better, but it still felt like a bombastic and natural turning point for the narrative as a whole, which leads me into my second point. Narrative wise it is probably the most meaningful and critical scene before the true ending, this moment is the catalyst for both the characters and the players where they are finally given true agency for the first time, and will from now on go past the point of no return in the most intimately impactful way to the characters' relationships and futures... as shown clearly by Yoh's tragedy soon after the players choice. Before this point both Fuminori and Saya have been getting away with morally ambiguous character development due to player empathy for their situation and narrative build up, this is the first time they have to face real consequences for their actions and the stakes going forward suddenly become very real as proven by the choice immediately after. While it is fine to say it could have been implemented better, reacting as "japanese must equal no female agency" is tunneled visioned imo when talking about one of the countries with the lowest crime rates in the free and developed world. Still thank you for talking about Saya no Uta.

[@chattycatty3336]

japan may have one of the lowest crime rates, but it has very high sex crime rates (1 in every 14 women have experienced forced intercourse- and that's only counting those that have reported it). Crimes in japan are low because A) they have lots of cameras, and B) the culture is different than America. Committing petty crimes like theft actually makes YOU look bad, and everyone will greatly disapprove of your actions. If you have to take from others instead of just working to afford it, you're a shitty person. However crimes related to SA are NOT the same. Some of the most vile crimes related to SA have happened in Japan, and there's a plethora of sources out there to prove this. Not only that, but MANY of the victims never get any closure really because the law would rather protect a mans dignity than a woman's. Ive heard countless cases were the perpetrator was some CEO or simply had a lot of connections, and basically got out with a slap on the wrist. "it was a small mistake! we shouldn't destroy his whole life over it!" is literally how they view sex crimes. I got nothing wrong with japan, and I know they do a lot of things right. But please, do your research, because it isn't the perfect utopia a lot of people believe.

[@Cooe.]

Tell everyone you know nothing about real-world Japan without telling everyone. 🤦😑 Sexual harassment and crime against women is absolutely ENDEMIC to Japan. It's just that most of it goes unreported because it's just so common and an accepted part of everyday life. People don't want to make a fuss and rock the boat as that's extremely bad in East Asian culture. The nail that sticks out gets hammered down and all that. So men harrass women largely without consequence while those women just shove the pain and disgust deep, deep down. 🤷 So many idiots weebs thinking Japan is some f**king glorious utopia... 🙄

[@RosariaBestGirl]

​@@chattycatty3336 Except I never claimed it was utopia and nor did I imply it. You just inferred that on your own because what I commented at the end was simply statistical fact. Therefore it must be an apology and no can make logical statement with it right? Quite the opposite. What I can't do is help you if it bothers you that Japan isn't as bad as the rest of the world at SV and is in fact within the top 25 safest countries for women *precisely* on sexual violence... this is not copium it is just something you should know is factually true if you actually researched. This is also not an argument to say it doesn't happen abundantly, rather that it does, yet at a significantly lower rate than other places because Japan still does far more to protect women and enforce their rights than its peers. Much to peoples chagrin who take it as an excuse perhaps but is simply a literal statistical fact *despite* the amount of SA. Even if we are generous and say 90 percent of cases are not being reported... it would *still* be out done by countries like India and Pakistan, or Yemen and Afghanistan where reporting would be as low or lower not solely because of cultural silence... rather the opposite... because these are countries where its either legal or normalized to rape and abuse women... even melt their face off... Which again since you did your research you *definitely know* and *must* be ignoring the plethora of data by humans right groups and womens rights activists on countries like these right? Yes, historically, Japan has defenitely done a lot of evil and definitely some of the most heinous SA... and some of it is still prevelant today! You got it! Except that it is far less than the big offenders and also considerably less violent than almost the *entire* rest of the world...Is it awful for you that this claim is statistical fact. Maybe. Is it sensationalist too either paint or equate it to countries where they are *extremely* well known to have the worst rates for female rights as well as violence towards women? Obviously lol. Which is what I pointed out by commenting that in the first place and any serious, informed commenter should know... I get it, people may get the wrong idea and you have to point it out but unfortunately for you and me the world is simply that much of an awful place that it is to the point were any normal person can accurately and resonably say that Japan is safer and closer to human rights than a good chunk of its peers.... and have it be a factual statement.

The fact this super powerful interdimensional creature thing was overpowered by a middle aged made me really confused back in the day too, before i knew of the term 'convenient writing' or Japan's true fucked up reality... So yeah it pissed me off too. That being said, i don't think this visual novel, aside the sex bits is all that fucked up, it provides a pretty interesting take on alteration of perspective, if flawed. Like yeah, killing and eating humans is fucked up... If you're a human. If you're not however, its not really any different than us eating animals, and well, animals eating humans. Even the morality part of it checks out, because technically, other types of beings can have a different and completely different morality, heck, even on this planet many cultures and regions have this, where they see some things we'd see as absolutely monstrous as normal (cannibalism still present in some tribes for example). The real part where it fails is the sentience aspect of it, as well as communicability, because realistically, if such a creature, or race existed, you'd still be unable to communicate with it properly due to the disparity in logic and principles would be too great... And if it'd not be, they would be close enough to us in morality and would understand the problem with eating and tormenting sentient beings (people, like we try to minimize the suffering of animals, even those we eat), or would at least quickly learn the morality of our race and understand why its all a problem. Still, its an interesting thought experiment, its kind of a shame its wrapped into such an ugly and half assed package.

[@lukastace3154]

So... I've never played the game and I'm learning about it through this video so you definitely have more knowledge than me, but from what I've read in the comments below (and what the video goes over obviously), the communicability aspect of it which you draw an issue with isn't exactly problematic...? I completely get what you mean when you say "you'd be unable to communicate with it properly due to the disparity in logic and principles, and if not, they'd be close enough to us in morality and would understand the problem with eating and tormenting sentient beings", but at the same time... that's kind of how it works? It seems to me that Saya's treatment of others depends on THEIR perception on her. Hence, she probably groups humans into 2 categories; those that see her as beautiful, and those that see her as revolting. The latter are basically inhuman to her and morals don't apply to them, whereas the former is the group that she can actually form a connection with. I don't think that her believing that eating humans is bad is a necessary criteria and prerequisite to her developing a connection with Fumi, and on paper, I feel like... everything checks out

[@SomeOtherTroper]

"You mean to tell me that the same Saya who can melt glass, kill small animals, drive people mad by merely glancing at them, does neurosurgery with multiple appendages, and ***ing ripped a girl's stomach open is now helplessly crying as a middleaged man man is assaulting her?" Yes, that's exactly what the author and I are telling you. One of Saya's main problem is that she understands how incredibly and instinctively repulsive she is to people. That's why she came on to Fuminori in the first place after all, and deliberately constructed their first encounter in a way that could be interpreted as "fuck, I had another terrible dream because of the meds" if Fuminori didn't see her right - and she could simply run back into the darkness. She had HOPE. And that hope was destroyed when she 'opened the eyes' of another man, who then went on a killing spree and then truly saw her and assaulted her because she was the only thing he could see or smell or touch that wasn't hideous. And honestly - I think Saya just let him do it out of pity, even though she could have easily ended him on the spot, because she realized that unlike Fuminori, who she had saved and given hope to, she had actually ruined this guy's life. She might be a monster with a completely inhuman moral compass, and has done some awful things coming from that mindset, but this is the point where she's confronted with the fact that she has completely and irrevocably fucked someone else up with the same method that helped Fuminori. So she LETS it happen because it's her fault. It's no coincidence, under that theory, that directly after that is when she essentially offers Fuminori the chance to be rid of her once and for all - she's learning human empathy. (Too slowly for the woman she disemboweled, unfortunately, and based on Fuminori's choice to abandon her or to walk alongside her, she's either about to become a tragic shadow hiding in the dark or twist or utterly abandon any idea of human empathy.)

[@sammayo473]

The way I saw it was that the reason Saya was overpowered easily, was because of a few reasons: 1. Like you said, Saya can drive anyone insane by looking at her true form, rendering them unable to fight back, not very well at least. The man was given the same condition Fuminori had, which means he sees Saya as a little girl, eliminating an edge that Saya had over most of her victims. 2. From what I've seen in the visual novel, Saya seems to like having an element of surprise when need be, such as when she gives the neighbor Fuminori's "meat vision" after trapping him before he understands what's happening. Another example is when Koji is about to kill Fuminori when Saya ambushs him from behind. All in all, I thought it made perfect sense why Saya was cornered by the man without much effort.

[@Futekigousha]

I'd like to actually like this vid... But the BB gameplay is a huge miss imo. It ends up looking like one of those Tiktok reels. And for someone with ADHD like me, it's awful, cause I can't follow the storytelling so well while being distrated by non-related stuff. I do enjoy your voice while narrating the story, but sadly can't finish the vid. Big hug, and will keep an eye for more vids(If they don't fall in the same format, that's it).

[@eriksigalraven8340]

"it is fiction" all people who into non con in fiction be it books or mivies, do approve of rape in real life. And ye thats why bible and quran so popular. And ye thats why rape is so common. Rapists know society wont condemn them seeing most believe bible and quran is source of moral values and that rape is just a way of procreation. In many modern countries if woman is raped she either stoned (in somalia) or hanged(iran) or forced to marry her rapist(saudi arabia). And in russia rape was recently decriminalized to win more support of population towards government. Some fiction. Quran and Bible still used to base legislation on them, hence why in many countries women have no rights and merely kept as sex slaves. Bc of "just fuction" popular fiction, in which rape is shown as smt fine and normal, and is outlawed to criticize this "just fiction"

[@lova3171]

i know this game isn't for muslims but i played it during a dark time in my life either way ; leave islam out of the talk because in the religion itself the woman who was raped can kill her rapist and if she doesn't he is stoned if he's married or tortured if not as for christianity honestly i don't know but it has many versions that i believe there maybe punishment for rape somewhere but most popes were changing the scripts of the religion so nobody knows as for the examples of countries you gave you need to blame the culture and the people not the religion europe had a lot of good values like the philosophy of Enlightenment which can be considered fiction by your standards idk but they still occupied a lot of countries in africa and asia and killed countless people as for last entertainement media doesn't really know any bounds they will include even rape scenes if it's for profit doesn't mean that it makes rape any better in the minds of normal people , the only people who would change their moral compass because of a game are mentally deranged people that shouldn't be allowed in society

[@TotinosOtherBoy]

Wrong

[@eriksigalraven8340]

@TotinosOtherBoy cut the cr*p. In most countries legislation based on "just fiction". Majority believe r*pe is justified bc this is what women are created for. R*pe only condemned by femenists and some libs i e by very tiny percent of population
