One of my favorite parts of Chilla's Art gameplays with Gab is hearing her stories and trivia about Japan

[@AntonMonster]

Yeah, I always eager to hear them 😊

[@ananda3363]

Ik right? I love hearing her stories about Japan and her translating some of the words. It makes me want to learn Japanese and visit Japan even more.

That character is driving me crazy. Her friend calls and sounds hurt - oh well time for karaoke. There’s a drink she didn’t bring - ah nice I have extra. Food she didn’t want - awesome let’s eat it. Like what are you doing.

[@kachca]

EXACTLY like first step is help your friend clean up so you can go together

[@NotVivianASMR]

i think its because in japan there's not much stuff to help women stay safe like there's not much awareness so she doesn't know the tricks men do

[@pb542]

@@NotVivianASMR Why would you eat or drink someone else’s stuff anyway? Or don’t feel worried for a friend in distress… I didn’t know about drugging thing til I turned about 17 (In my country this topic and “tactic” isn’t as spread + I never clubbed or went to a bar alone), but I’d never ever eat or drink something some random stuff someone else got, like eww I understand going somewhere alone at late hour - makes sense if you didn’t learn much about women safety or if you just lived in some secure area.

[@ildza8733]

it’s sweet but at the same time it’s also sad because it shows that even in one of the “safest” countries on earth, women are still experiencing those types of harassment daily

[@dimwarlock]

@@ildza8733 Might be safer than other places, but I've heard Japan is known for not treating women with the most respect in a lot of aspects. There are many cultural differences, but also a lot of bad human similarities.

[@Shmaples]

@@dimwarlock I've heard a lot of talk about creepers on Japanese trains. Like dudes feeling women up or outright sexually assaulting them in a crowded train car. There's actually a vlogger/streamer (the type that streams their life all day) who basically caught a guy doing it to her on her livestream and she talks about how common it is for women there. You can actually find her channel here on KZbin if it's still up. She is a white, Australian woman so I don't know how her experience might differ from a local woman but it does seem to be a huge issue. I've also heard that the police don't really do much or seem to care much about these incidents. The Aussie woman who was assaulted talks about how non-phased the police were when she attempted to report the incident but she also says it could be because she is foreign as well. This is all hearsay but there does seem to be a LOT of mumblings about the sexual harassment situation in Japan and just the overall respect and equal treatment of women there. There's many videos that interview Japanese women and according to these interviews, a very high percentage of them report that they have been sexually harassed or touched in some way on public transport. It gets my blood boiling. That is SO MANY women. (PSA: I have nothing against Japan and I by no means think this is a problem ONLY in Japan. I'm just speaking about things I have seen and heard from other women.)

[@s_mai8970]

Watching this right after Jack's playthrough and I just realized that the phones we were picking up during the dream sequence at the karaoke are supposed to be all the missed calls from Moeka while we were passed out. God, the alone karaoke endings remain the worst for me solely because we definitely could have done something to prevent things from happening but we just didn't.

[@ace_of_cups4096]

The fact that Gab's Japanese friends felt so safe with her cus she's this cool western woman and Japanese men were afraid to catcall her is awesome.

[@AlliWalker]

I doin't think they were afraid so much as didn't want to deal with the embarassment that might come from dealing with somebody who might yell back at them. Most Japanese women aren't raised to be as assertive as western women are.

[@LeBatteur]

@@AlliWalker That’s called being afraid, lol. If you have a strong aversion to the consequences of doing something, you are afraid to do it. Besides, isn’t it often said that men tend to fear embarrassment? They were afraid, because idiots like that are always cowardly, full stop.

@@lolly480 Japan is one of world's safest country so the girls aren't as tough as girls born and raised in countries with higher crime rates. I've lived in Japan for years and thought "they are catcallers?? Men, I may have just been the one bullying them!"

[@AlohaDucky]

Second time watching this. The first time was Sean's playthrough. It JUST dawned on me that the reason both Sean and Evelyn struggle to "sing" the 2nd song and the rhythm is off is because the character is feeling the effects of the drugged drink. OH, MY GOD! 😭 Maybe I'm wrong. But the workers keep checking on the girl in the room to see how she's affected, right??? What Evelyn said at 21:26 made my jaw drop as a lightbulb went off in my head.

[@ShadowstalkerTF]

Woah, that's such a cool (and terrifying) detail. Thanks for pointing that out!

[@simplymisty_]

if thats actually implemented in the game, like, that you get worse at "singing" because the character is feeling the effects of the drugs, so her singing is off in some way...dang. thats incredible attention to details.

[@Riccardo_Mori]

This was the best playthrough I've watched so far. Your knowledge of Japanese makes for a richer experience, as there were spoken parts without subtitles I really wanted to understand. I commend Chilla's Art for raising awareness about this types of abuse (sexual harassment, stalking) through their games. They're really successful at conveying how disturbing such matters can be. Cheers! //Rick

[@iseetheWAYVision]

frrrr

[@simplymisty_]

This. I decided to watch this gameplay now, because it's been a while since i first saw it (probably watched Sean play it the first time) and it adds so much, I'm happy i saw it. Now I need to find out if Gab played any other games, where she explains some of not translated japanese parts. I get a bit sad, when a game doesn't have translations of some things, as you often lose a lot of context because of it. Like, I never realised that Moeka said "Don't touch me" instead of cutting off her sentence at "Don't". Like, gosh! This makes it more unsettling that MC didn't go look for her friend. I would RUN the moment i heard the distress in my friends voice, but that last sentence would make my heart drop.

[@BigGrabowski]

Edit: leave Stick alone, guys; I think it's a matter of difference in opinion and miscommunication. Chilla comes off as a really compassionate, empathetic person. I believe they are male, and if so, he's done a good job of depicting sexual misconduct as a serious matter; furthermore, he's made a few games now where women were the protagonist in a realistic situation, and while the women understandably panic, he gives them the option to fight back. His depictions of mental illness are also fairly sympathetic. In Japan, mental illness is taboo to even discuss or acknowledge, and sexual harassment and rape are treated as "just one of those things that happens". I wonder if he has many female friends, or knew someone who was victimized.

[@toffee1234100]

I remember someone saying that they are two dev brothers

[@UnnecessaryWords303]

That’s interesting, and partly sad because I just assumed it was a woman/feminine person because I forgot some men actually care that these things are happening

[@Stick_and_stone]

I feel a bit uncomfortable that it's always men being creeps in the games, I feel like there should be a game where a woman is the one harassing someone. I guess chances are low that'll happen since it's already taboo to talk about r*pe and most places that have such severe taboos would believe women cannot be creeps. It being men all the time unsettles me because it kind of makes all men seem bad, and makes it seem like only men can act like this. Being a creep has nothing to do with gender nor sex, it's just likelier for guys because society already expects them to be controlling and in charge and also stronger, and because a whole lot of people (the old fashioned ones) may still think men are better people and so turn a blind eye to such things. But being a creep takes a mentality that anyone of any gender can possibly develop.

[@traviejnr]

I’m sorry, but I have to wholeheartedly disagree with this. This is completely derailing the truth which is that statistically speaking a significant amount of sexual assault and sexual harassment is at the hands of a man and the victim is a woman. That doesn’t mean that men cannot be victims, but it means that from a statistical standpoint it’s pretty much a moot point. Unfortunately, it runs deeper than a random potential personality disorder that can be developed, there is deep seeded misogyny that leads men to believe they are entitled to the things that they want purely because of their inherent maleness, there is a sociological implication that boys and men simply cannot help themselves when I comes to their predatory and violent impulses and that the women in society must accept that this is purely primitive which is absolutely garbage. But it is definitely a deep seeded misogynistic issue as opposed to a random personality trait generation. A fears to fathom game came out recently where the victim was a male being stalked by his violent ex girlfriend, so there is a ratio of representation available. Unfortunately for you also, it is supposed to make you uncomfortable because this is the truth. Sometimes many men don’t even know how serious femecide and sexual violence against women truly is, and serious conversations that lead you to grow as a person and become more knowledgeable in these types of areas are definitely conversations that make you uncomfortable xox

Chilla’s art seriously is becoming quite a name in gaming horror. They never fail to creep me out immensely.

[@jackrabbit.]

I think one of my favorite thing about Chilla's Art is seeing their incredible progression with each game they make. They used to have a harsh film grain because their graphics weren't the best, their stories were very vague yet still horrifying, and slowly but surely you see them getting better and better with each game. Something about their games though, they just have that nice touch to just make you shit your pants lol

[@KOU-ZAI]

Aside from Moeka's disturbing call at the early part of the game (and that lurker dude), I find it creepy as well that the player was forced into singing "Ripe Fruit" just before all things went to hell. With the kind of theme this game had with the coach, I think you can put 2 and 2 together from there.

The girl not responding to her friend's "don't touch me!" might be because the karaoke place was too loud. She did say she can't hear her over the phone. She gave me anxiety, she didn't suspect a single thing from the phone call, the creepy guy and the random food/drink on her table. She didn't bother to stay with her friend either when Moeka said to go ahead in the first run, no, you should clean up together and go karaoke together. Never leave your friend alone or go somewhere alone when it's so dark out! 💀

I just want to point out that when the main character wakes up in the karaoke room, because she was drugged as everyone can tell the doors to the room are slightly ajar and latter she feels sick and after the ending where she waits for the police she goes to the hospital but we never saw her get hurt by the coach so I think it's implied that the guy that was stalking her actually did something to her after he drugged her...😟 Just a thought that I had I know it's sad but wanted to put it out there just to see if anyone else noticed this as well.

[@CassianGray]

The scariest thing about Chilla's games for me is how realistically plausible they are. Like, this stuff can and does happen in real life, regularly. And that's the real horror.

[@wildboar67]

Something I enjoy about Chilla's- (and Fears to Fathom) games is that sometimes there are multiple antagonists, but only one main "villain," so to speak. Because, sometimes, that's how it is. There are many bad people, and few- if any- good ones. It also lends well to video games in a mechanics sense; it subverts your expectations.

[@ohthatdemoness6]

I don't find many horror games scary but scenarios in games like this shake me to my core and leaves me feeling sick. What's worse is that this game brought out vivid memories of when I went to go for an exercise run at night and a man called out to me, then drove down the block to park on the same side of the sidewalk I was on after I ignored him. I was so terrified for my life I ran the other way and went around the block and hid in someone's backyard until I felt safe enough to quickly run back home. I didn't think to call the cops at the time because I was so scared, but sad to say, this isn't the first time I've had something like this occur to me (previous time was when I was in high school. it was to a lesser degree but it still freaks me out today.) I can't count with all my fingers where I had incredibly uncomfortable and scary interactions with men throughout my life, and games like these really hits me hard. Kudos to Chillas for making games like this in such a respectful manner.

[@Shilpa_Kujur]

Yeah I feel like the earlier chilla's art games depicting the same problems were more accurate. Even in them, the victims could have done better but the mistakes felt genuine, caused by social norms. In this one, it feels like the mc just keeps making mistakes for the sake of the plot. Don't get me wrong, I still like it but I just think the writing and mechanics are just a bit flawed in this one.

the voice acting in this game is so good and such a nice touch! i love the way chilla's art games have evolved. also that sneaking around section looked super hard. i was trying so hard to listen but it was hard to tell where he was. it's also not very forgiving if you make even the slightest mistake.

[@AGruta]

I finally had the opportunity to play a Chilla's Art game and my first one was The Karaoke. This game is an indie masterpiece, I know it's a simple one, but with such an important meaning. As a survivor of male violence, my first play with this game was not easy at all, but I couldn't hold myself until I got all the 6 endings and the game becomes even more interesting as long as we discover all the possible endings for it. There's so much to debate about it, and that's amazing! I'm studying to be a 3D artist for games, and I always thought with myself how cool it would be if a horror game showed something related to the terror that misoginy is, in a realistic way, and that's why The Karaoke is so meaningful to me. There's never a "right way" to survive or to go through those situations, and the game shows that in multiple ways. It's also an experience that can make people more sensitive to what we, as women, go through in this world that is so rude to us, every day. Like someone said in the coments: Being a woman - the horror game. It's just so genius! And I'm so happy that I closed the game with all the six endings! I ran to Gabs channel right when I finished the whole game so I could understand all the japanese phrases that had no subtitles xDDD and it's so interesting to see how the gamer girls are reacting to this game, so much in common and thoughts that are relatable about the walkthrough. Chilla's Art really impressed me on this one, in many different ways (from admiration to total getting terrified and wanting to quit like NOW hahaahaha)

This is such an unsettling game. When the part came up about the 10 girls I burst out crying. It isn’t fair that this is a very real fear and situation especially for girls/ women in the world that we live in

[@DeeeJay07]

This is one of the darkest and f*ck up horror game by Chilla's Art. Not even a horror game, the story is so messed up. What an amazing great game by them again! Chilla's Art game are always so good

taking the hardest test of my life thus far this upcoming saturday (LSAT, the american test to get into law school) and have been in pure pre exam panic mode, so being able to sit down and watch this video and hang out w fun gab japanese trivia was very much what i needed thank u for always bringing good vibes when i need them ❤

i love when gab plays chillas art games! its like the perfect match for some awesome horror game content!

I'm pretty sure I pulled something when I jolted slightly when the guy just burst into the room. I was just watching the door like Gab asked

[@HellenaHanbaskit]

This one was really stressful to watch. x.x Thanks for going through these games for us, Gabs.

[@pr1smr]

I love how much her and Jack did the same stuff like say "you suck" to moeka and also go up to the black van in the parking lot

[@dr.ziegler8455]

OMG I missed Gab and Chilla’s art games. I get so excited when Gab hones her japanese reading skills 🥰💕 I’m so excited

[@rhiannajd4412]

I love Gab’s little anecdotes about Japan and her vocab lessons ☺️

[@12354rony]

'Japan is very safe' *immediately reminded of one of the worst and saddest cases ever of Junko Furuta.. Sorry in advance for anyone searching this and wish they didn't, it's humanity at its worst.

[@misunderstood6475]

Sean and her playthroughs are amazing how things line up with each other 💕

[@leacoffee570]

You know it's a Chilla's Art game when you have to mop

[@sususaku34500]

Yet that terrifying random dude at the karaoke who probably drugged our drink and left a paper in our fries still roams free dhsjksqk there's always that one threat in Chilla's games that's there to tense you up during the game and then you never see them again even though they could be a whole other horror game themselves 🥲

[@jerseyjazzzamora5873]

If I first saw the game by myself, I might have not noticed that the characters at the beginning are different than the actual title. Glad I learned something new today! I also wanna say that I watch your playthroughs whenever I am working (as a tailor) and whenever I am drawing because you give a chill vibe to the gameplay!

[@YokoshimaSTAR]

These random nature and city music video backgrounds with feet and people and food is truely the most Japanese karaoke thing ever.

[@graymonk5972]

as much as i wanted to get mad at the character not helping her friend, from the perspective of a kid (and not one raised in my particular circumstances) i can understand not knowing how many red flags there were not everyone is as aware of the dangers in the world or how to protect yourself. i mean it’s sad to even have to know *how* as a kid. it’s a good message that at the end of the day even when you’re controlling the character and something bad happens, you’ll blame her still. when it’s no one’s fault but the man who did it. you can’t stop it, she can’t stop it.

[@lyriccurry4372]

Honestly I prefer your vids, Gab, so much that when I saw this game come out - I didn't watch any other playthrough until you played it. You just have such an awesome vibe especially when you play Chilla's Art games

[@jkismygf]

Nothing is scarier about this type of indie horror games than women being the main characters who are stalked and then assaulted by creepy men and perverts for their own pleasure. It's scarier to watch than paranormal-based storylines because it's real...

[@SilentRiotXOX]

Man, I have to say, this is the best Chilla's Art game I've seen so far! Gab's is so right, the 4 minute wait for the cops is so deeply terrifying, a realistic fear. Honestly, really cool, I'm gonna go back and give their other games another try

[@moki4541]

One thing to mention: If you stab somebody they are still able to fight back (well depends where, in the neck maybe not so much...)

[@EmbriiFaye]

This had me on the edge of my seat, shouting during stream.

[@polinadesyatova27]

I think Chillas arts developing their games for 6 months at least) I noticed its released every 6 months

[@MunkeyKung]

They get the room for free with more people because they'll buy more drinks/food ;)

[@stitchsprout]

I love Chilla's Arts game because Gab being able to translate all the parts we miss haha!! You get so much more of the story / atmosphere!! (I also love her stories and hearing her talk in Japanese!!) Very cool

[@evavox9761]

I don't know if I feel relieved or just sad to hear that catcalling is a thing everywhere. Really wish it wasn't. It's a pretty scummy thing to do but it is so so common still.

[@pb542]

@Bleh what country are you from, if you don’t mind me asking?

[@Eyefestation1362]

The best ending is probably the evidence ending where you gave the evidence to the cops and the protagonist and moeka surived

[@babyshiori]

The game starts off with Gab competing at a jump shot competition with a strange girl… lol this is a first for a Japanese horror game 😅

[@fancydeer]

this is one of their scarier games.

[@smoresndoors]

Gab your play throughs of literally anything just complete my day, I get so excited whenever a new video pops up. Keep being so awesome! 💕💕

[@Spectreffex]

When I was in junior high in the early 00s (I was 12 or 13 years old), we went into the locker room once and the coach was sitting on a chair in the very back, around a corner. One girl always changed there so obviously she saw him and he left immediately and said that he was just taking a break (in the girls locker room? okay dude). Another time he said we couldn't use the locker room for some reason, but we were "welcome to change in [his] office." Another time, we were up on the stage in the gym and he conveniently swept the floor nearby the edge. He was bent low enough so we were worried that he was looking up our skirts. During flexibility training, he watched the girls way more than the boys.

[@lordofgraphite]

There's no better entertainment on earth, than watching gabs play a Japanese indie horror.

[@subsoar5734]

it's crazy comparing these let's plays to Sean's. Evelien has such amazing input on things.

[@thefangirlfromhell9627]

First time I’ve ever watched Sean’s play through first rather than Gab’s 😭Usually it’s the other way around, but both videos are so good. I love Chilla’s art!

[@NessieNice]

When someone keep repeating "I know you're in there, just come out, I won't hurt you" The reality is: 1) They don't know where you are, 2) Don't ever come out, 3) They will absolutely hurt you This is one of those moments where I'd be yelling "ghosts and your hellish portals where are you when I need you??!"

[@めろりん-d4d]

I often got ナンパされた in Japan, which is where I learned how to ignore cat-calls when I returned to the US. although, one time I was with a Japanese friend in Japan, and some men tried to cat-call us while we were having drinks outside of a conbini. she replied to them in a monotone voice へーそうなの… without making eye contact (much like the staff woman in this game lol) and I thought that was SO COOL lol. also! you probably noticed after filming: 予約 yoyaku 約束 yakusoku although, reserving a song is basically like promising to sing it!

[@emmalynn4284]

Earbuds in public are a MUST!! I don’t even care if I seem rude for ignoring like don’t talk to me bro😂

[@LuluxSuzaYaoiLove]

this stream got me screaming at 1am in my room cause the topic hits way too close to home as a woman.

Thank you for putting a Tw, already watched a playthrough but really appreciated because it's sensitive

[@RS-bn1ty]

I’m sure chilla is very good at what they do but I’m in college and just made my first props in 3D foundations….oh my god, that stuff is time consuming and stressful I never want to see UVs again 😂

[@baeber]

I was so uncomfortable watching this it successfully made me feel grateful that I don't deal with people like these and rarely leave my room! It was a entertaining and disturbing game I enjoyed the translations a lot.

[@RedHeadRedeemer]

I love Chillas' art style and his ability to create games with situations that could and may have happened in real life. This first ending you got was a bit harder to digest compared to his previous games. Nevertheless, Chilla has an amazing skill for storytelling via video games. And you're my favourite person to watch play these! I watch other people play them too, but your reactions are a lot different than others, and it's easier for my ears to handle due to being hypersensitive and not being able to handle loud noises.

[@maliciositygames]

As always, the greatest horror stories are those which are seated closer to reality, and Chilla's Art seems to treat situations like these with sincerity. Towards a lighter note, the translations of the posters and signs really helps towards getting immersed into the story, and the purple chinchilla on the right of the screen during the karaoke is amazing as yet another self-reference.

[@DajJednego]

I like to think that when the song goes wrong with the red screen and Moeka calls, she's already dead at that point and the "supernatural" red screen and white noise are meant to represent that.

[@thepixelfoxy]

I tend to wear my earphones when in public, but if I am alone, I would only wear one in one ear.
