Ike Gave a more Detailed Information about his Kampanaphobia [Ike Eveland/Nijisanji EN]

[@guessit5036]

And then Mihoyo was wondering, why everybody hated the bell sound whenever Xiangling moved. For people with such condition, playing as her was pretty much the same as playing Layers of Fear with Genshin characters.

[@lyrastarsolaris]

Omg that quest in the chasm has a loud ass bell too. I think Diona has a bell too.

[@banarnar1371]

​ ive barely done any of the chasm quests but knowing this is going to make it a LOT easier when i do the quests TYSM

there was also a world quest or quest in enkanomiya where we had to ring 3 bells and god that freaked the soul out of me it sounded so... idk very eerie and uncomfy

For the record, I never knew that there's a phobia to bells, my WHOLE live growing up!

Phobias are like fetishes. If it exists, there's a phobia/fetish for it.

[@NS-et5wh]

Phobias often develop because of trauma associations. Something that subconciously reminds you of something traumatic can become a phobia, even if you don't remember the trauma itself, it could have happened in childhood or smth. Therefore anything can become a phobia since anything could be involved in a trauma

Ike shows up if you search kampanaphobia now lol

[@KamenracerX]

So don't recommend Kung Fu Hustle for movie night, gotcha. But church bells are hella scary if you think about it. These huge metal objects are being dangled at a tall spot. That's a lot of potential energy waiting to be converted to kinetic energy. Not to mention, because of how loud they need to be, sometimes, you can feel the air and ground vibrate from their tolls.

[@elijy4905]

that's why I love them(church bells), although sometimes I worried that they might fall off.

[@luce1901]

They also kinda scare me, not is much as it does IKE, but it freaks me out just hearing it. I have pretty bad religious trauma, and anything that has religious symbolism freaks me out. Thankfully, I am seeing a professional and she has helped me recover a lot. Still though, church bells are scary 😭

[@BramLastname]

Yeah, my grandpa showed me a Small church bell once, And I'm still freaked out by that thing. Like I'm not necessarily scared of it, But I don't like it being in the same room as me.

[@dasboot1362]

I know what you mean, my house isn't far away from a church, a cathedral AND the old Town Hall and you hear (and somtimes feel!) the bells toll almost ALL THE TIME! I mean when you live there you kinda get used to it but for someone with Kampanaphobia just visiting must be hell. Quite a shame really, since I personally really enjoy the sound of bells and to me it's a part of the city flair :(

[@Aerodumb]

I actually like bells a lot, but I can totally understand you. Back in 2011, there was a BIG earthquake in a town that is 115km (71mi) away from mine, so big that we could feel it. There was an old church in that town and its bell tower collapsed. The moment was captured in video and it's terrifying

[@augustine.]

Glad you clipped this to educate and raise awareness for Ike's phobia.

[@zenaneah]

Phobia sucks... Like you consciously know theres nothing to be afraid of but you unconsciously panic. The anxiety you feel when you are exposed to your phobia is awful. It makes me cry every single time tbh. Most of the time, even as an adult I have to run to my mother for comfort. 🥺😭🤧

[@venven..]

i feel so bad for ike because i understand how hard it is to struggle to find media that is safe to consume with a phobia, as i also struggle with one myself (emetophobia), i hope he knows that we're alright with him not playing certain games because of it and that we'll always cheer him on 💙💙

I feel like phobias are so looked down apon as childish or attention seeking which is such a horrible thing. I have nyctophobia and i get made fun of a lot about it because it inhibits me to do things people would find easy. Its really just ignorance, and its so frustrating.

[@venven..]

@@formes. honestly though, having phobias can be so frusterating. like i get the "well nobody likes thr*w up" like yeah i know but i don't just "not like it" i an terrified of it. there's just so many people who don't understand it and don't care to learn

[@holmlingextras8011]

As someone who has a variant of chronomentrophobia; fear of clocks (to be exact with me it’s the fear of the sound), Ike being warned about the bells makes me vv happy because it reminds me of when I’ve been helped by pals out of anxiety stuff due to the ticking sounds

[@pearline4684]

That sounds really rough to deal with too, it’s great to have friends who are able to help!

[@12spooncicle]

[@stringbean5259]

i understand where he's coming from, i have a severe phobia as well (although mine is more common) and i always have to check before watching/playing things to make sure i won't get triggered

[@wisteriaaa_23]

This is so true

[@souleaterevans4589]

Looking back on some of these clips, Niji really has a supportive community for phobias. Like people were also really supportive of Uki when his trypophobia got triggered pretty severely in the PsyBorg It Takes Two collab

[@jellysorceress]

Aww I’m not sure… but I feel like there’s a realm in Sky which is Prairie which features bells, and there’s an instrument in Sky called Pan Flute, and I guess does wind chimes count? There’s huge bells too. That’s unfortunate though ;-;

[@daysofbloom4109]

Even in the home area there's this big bell that rings every hour, no? That's unfortunate, I'd love to see Ike play Sky but it can't be helped then 🥺

[@chxlls5677]

i feel so gd bad for him- i wouldnt say i have a *phobia* of bells, but if there was like an option thing where i go into a room with screeching ghost or some shit, or go in a room with a big ass church bell that rings 24/7, id choose the one with the ghosts- bells are f**kin scary man

[@batfacedliar8922]

is that not a phobia-

[@marshmllwbunny]

this is so interesting! i didn't know this was an actual phobia. ive been petrified of the sound of church bells most my life. i didnt think this was a thing anyone else struggled with.

[@darcyjoshua7201]

Poor Ike..

[@symester5o546]

Oh okay, I'm glad he touched up on it a little more, I was so heavily confused and surprised by his fear because he mentioned he loves the first Drakengard. I was so hype at hearing that, but then was shocked because the Drakengard soundtrack is HEAVY with bells in it's music.

[@CrystalMajestica]

He loves Drakengard?!?! Do you know which stream that was when he mentioned he loves Drakengard? Though the only soundtrack from Drakengard 1 that I remember that has prominent bells is Closing. I love the DrakeNieR series and it makes me happy to hear that Ike loves a Drakengard game. Has he beaten every ending of Drakengard 1 if you know?

[@symester5o546]

[@LocalSimp2744]

Poor Ikey and his fear of bells!

[@humblescout]

Sky unfortunately has a lot of bells in it. Like a bunch of bell sound effects and they tend to sound off randomly. Especially in the home area if you’re just sitting there vibing or talking. They’ll sound off at random intervals without any warning. It’s…really annoying imo, but for someone with this phobia i can see it can being a super bad experience for them.

[@vanilla4362]

I get the struggle with phobias, fortunately i’ve been able to “train” mine by triggering myself just a little often and then try not to let my body react to it, then again i don’t know if i would’ve been able to purposely trigger myself if it didn’t negatively impact my life as much as it has (i’ve had to be out of school for almost three years because of it now, emetophobia, strong irrational fear of vomit, and a nausea anxiety response is a very uncomfortable combo to have) I don’t get anxiety attacks when it crosses my mind anymore tho, and i can almost take hearing it in movies, although i do still look away and cover my ears if it comes up, i don’t panic if someone coughs anymore, people bringing it up in conversation isn’t as bad anymore, real life is way too much tho It seems kind of silly to be afraid of a bodyfunction that’s supposed to help you get rid of things that could harm your body but oh well, that’s life ig

[@kodoku_opia]

trypophobia may not be an uncommon fear anymore but i think it still fits into the “weird phobias” section, as someone with trypophobia myself, honestly i would be in ike’s position if i tried to explain it, but i’m praying that ike copes with this well!

[@BloodyMobile]

I was wondering about the details of his problem with bells after he mentioned it. A really curious thing, especially that he has no idea where it comes from. Surprised me though when he said that seeing large bells is actually worse than hearing them. I wish him that he can eventually overcome that and get to enjoy the games then.

[@burgars1070]

Movies made bells a creepy instrument specially on horror movies It just sound creepy.

[@WeatherInOrlando]

Big bells ARE intimidating he's correct!!!!

[@on_crono]

[@illslegal]

I think they already have settings separate for music and sound so maybe Ike might have a chance to play. But even for newbies they have a tutorial to go through that includes sounds of bells before you even got to open settings so yeah

[@sanstheanimator1964]

That's really unfortunate Sky does feature a lot of bells Especially when you get to the second map (after the tutorial)

[@masterofbloopers]

I wonder if Ike ever watched an episode of WWE where The Undertaker made a surprise appearance. His arrival is always foreshadowed by the bonging of a big bell.

[@CompSomAnichi]

Reminding me of popular bells in media. The first I can think of is FNAF and Kindergarten. Alsoin songs, the classical version of Servant of Evil.

[@rainbowdragon2878]

So an interesting thing about sky: the bells don’t look like traditional bells, normally they will swing back and forth to make the sound but in sky they look like a cone on top of a tower and they rotate to make the sound. The other thing is that they have a visual cue and you can adjust the in game volumes individually for sound effects BGM and musical instruments

[@dinah6927]

Oh the more you learn from uki, there’s ppl with bells phobia

[@kami_narisama]

Relatable. Have deep fears of balloons. In game I'm fine with it. But in movies, or real life? Yeah no thanks

[@jelloegg]

I kinda get it. I don't like being in the ocean or in areas I can't see a visible exit (or they're really narrow) and if there is a visible exit it's not one someone can suddenly lock on me. We played a DnD session a few weeks ago where someone pissed off someone else and the bar got bricked in. I freaked out for about ten seconds before remembering it's a game.

[@aili_not_ally]

If it's any consolation, Ike, the bells in Sky aren't deep pitched like church bells or too loud. And they don't look like regular bells at all. If it does bother you, find a Butterfly Player who can help you reach locations without them ringing But in Sky, it's not the loud things that'll hurt you. It's the quiet ones... Skykids, you know what I'm talking about.

[@descrates3545]

I hope he never plays Paper Mario TTYD If he saw people getting turned into pigs by a bell in that one chapter he'd probably hate bells even more

[@ShiroM1st]

I'm actually kinda curious what is his thought on school bells

[@mikoboke8923]

I don’t really like the sound of church bells because it’s kinda a weird feeling when you stand close enough to feel the vibrations through your entire body but i don’t even hear church bells anymore if i don’t pay attention to it. The school i go to we have a church directly next to our main school building. (My school used to be a place where monks lived a few hundred years ago and we still have the same buildings made out of stone so they obviously couldn’t built the school further away from the church) The church bell rings every single hour and i don’t think that any of the students there even hear it anymore because we hear it ring like that 8 times a day. My school is a combined middle school and high school (I’m from Europe so our school systems are different, we have elementary school up to 6th grade where we are 12 years old and after that we have 7 years of what we call “Lycée”.) I’m in my fifth year of Lycée so I’ve heard these bells 8 times a day for 5 years straight. I can’t imagine what it would be like to have a phobia of bells in my school, my guess would be that you would maybe become accustomed to it after a few weeks but i wouldn’t know. I just know that everyone interpretes things differently and i hope everyone is doing the best they can out there. I have misophbia so I’m not completely stranger to phobias but in my case my phobia doesn’t make me anxious, i just get the chills and feel sick to the stomach, i imagine it could be the same for Ike since both phobias have to do with hearing certain things. Of course is it very possible that his phobia is more intense but I’m not really sure about anything. And for everyone that os still here, Misopobia is kind of like a “fear” of certain sounds, for me it is chewing sounds, swallowing sounds, when someone is breathing unclearly or anything of the sort. I hope i educated someone out there with this that was interested.😅 Anyway, i wish everyone out there a wonderful night/day, i hope you’re healthy and get enough sleep tomorrow, not today because i don’t wanna be a hypocrite but still. Also for everyone struggling with insomnia like me, try listening to your own heart beat when you try to fall asleep and make sure you brush your teeth and blow your nose, the weird breathing sound i make when i don’t have a clear nose always keeps me awake so be sure to do that. Bye-bye, just do your best everyone. 🫶

[@callyzr]

now that i think about it i think i have it too lol but just the ones with low sounds

[@IcomanSB]

I really wonder what it was that makes the bell bring up the fear?

[@LambTAFFF]

big bells just look and sound imposing. i dont have a phobia, but i can see why bells could be so intimidating for the human brain.

[@IcomanSB]

@@LambTAFFF Makes sense in a way. I had a realization moment when I was at the dentist that sort of clicked on why people can be afraid to have the dentist working in their mouths. Little harder to apply the idea to bells for me, but I think I get it more now.

[@LambTAFFF]

@@IcomanSB also, trauma can play a big part. Ike says he doesnt know where it comes from, but traumas can cause phobias wayyy before you can even begin to remember stuff. And sometimes experiences can be so traumatic your brain forgets it as a form of escape from overstimulation. Sometimes its not even traumas, just scary shit that for some reason just tickled your brain weirdly at the wrong time (like developing a phobia from something you saw in the tv) Obviously i dont know ike so this is all speculation, and phobias can also come randomly because the brain is dumb. But if anyone's curious about some mysterious origins of their phobia, i recommend asking your parents or other people who were close to you growing up about it.
