If you know anything about Milgram, then you know that all the characters except Es (the guard) have killed someone. The songs are just them telling Es what they’ve done and through that we (the audience who plays the role of Es) determines whether or not the prisoner should be forgiven for their crime of murdering someone. Welcome to the Milgram fandom 😊
Does anyone think that in the beginning where she says “Why are you here? I’m a little annoyed” and I can’t smile well anymore because of you” she’s referring to the baby? Especially because she says before that she’s “not used to feeling this way” and “it’s a secret”

I think it's because it seems as if she feels no remorse for her crime. It's clear that Haruka, Fuuta, Shido and Mahiru feel guilt because of their crimes. Mu (at least from what I know) doesn't feel guilty for her crime but people forgive her because the person she killed did horrible things to her. But the baby didn't really do anything to her and she doesn't feel bad about killing it. I personally think she's innocent but I understand where people r coming from

well if we see things in reverse if she didn’t abort it she would have extreme difficulty to raise it since as we can see it the video, she’s young, has no maternal instinct and don’t know how to take care of a child. And most importantly, she would have to throw a part of her future since she would have to stop school, as well as the japanese community really look down on the teenager parents. Yes the child is innocent, but she isn’t as guilty as people say. I think that she would have been the guiltiest if she did give born to the child and didn’t take care of him (there’s a possibility that she would be a good mother, but at like 4% chance). But yes, she didn’t seem to feel any remorse for doing that...Well, it’s not exactly that. She definitely knows that she killed someone, and accept it as a crime. saying that she didn’t feel anything would be a lie, but at the same time it wasn’t exactly remorse (in the voice drama we can hear her saying ‘I can’t be bothered by it’). She is about 16 years old: it depends on people, but asian teens don’t feel anything when aborting their own child because they see it as a liability, an unfortunate life. In Canada we are given education about all kind of relationship so we handle it better, but in their country they don’t even know that you have to consent for a kiss (at least most of them don’t) or that incest doesn’t have to be between blood related family. So we would make the decision with more knowledge, while japanese teens, who only knows ‘It’s a bad thing’ about accidental pregnancy will do what the adults have told them: throw it. If anything, she is being more responsible than most of the other 16 years old by actually saying that she killed her child.

@ocarinachic763 жыл бұрын
I'm 6 months late but my theory for Yuno is not that she had an abortion, but that she actually carried the baby full term and hid it, perhaps because the father is an older man? My reason for thinking this is that the song is called Umbilical, and while the umbilical cord is formed at around 7 weeks, it is typically associated with being cut after the baby is born. Another thing to consider are abortion laws in Japan, which are pretty strict. A woman needs permission from her husband to get one, which is doubtful for Yuno since she is still in high school. Teenage pregnancy is a much rarer occurrence in Japan compared to other cultures, so Yuno may had felt trapped, and decided to ignore it and try to hide it. There have been multiple cases of young women who manage to hide their pregnancy from others, I even knew a girl in high school who no one knew was pregnant until she went into labor. From there, I'm torn between two possible theories. The first, the more dark theory, is that she murdered the baby shortly after giving birth, or perhaps abandoned it somewhere and it died from exposure. The other and more tragic theory is that she ignored the fact that she was pregnant and therefore didn't take care of herself properly, causing the baby to be a stillborn.

this is probably a VERY big stretch but i can definitely believe that yuno took a long time for the baby to be formed before removing it because i noticed throughout the song, yuno is constantly blowing onto the balloons, as if she's gradually allowing the womb to keep developing (im talking about all the "fuu~ fuu~" sequences). which is why she said "i messed up/i found out" at the end of the song. she allowed the womb to grow big. however this can also be a part of the song hence why i said my observation is a big stretch edit: im starting to believe in what i said even more since as the song progresses the balloons kinda do get bigger + a lot of "items" and "gifts" are inside the balloons

interesting theory, but you only need permission from your spouse if your married otherwise as long as you have a reason (economic being one of them) you can indeed get an abortion. "the Maternal Health Protection Law allows approved doctors to practice abortion with the consent of the mother and her spouse, if the pregnancy has resulted from r*pe, or if the continuation of the pregnancy may severely endanger the maternal health because of physical reasons or economic reasons." i'm not sure where you heard abortion laws are strict in japan but they are no more strict than maybe middle america, not as open as say new york or california but its still available. just read metamorphosis the manga (also known as emergence)

初めて聞いた時に「やっちゃったんだ、知っちゃったんだ」の歌詞を「やっちゃったんだ、死んじゃったんだ」 って聞こえてしまった。 色々とコメントを読んでると、だんだん深読みしすぎて、少しわざとっぽく言ってるように考えてきた。。。 When i heard the lyrics for the first time, the "I messed up, I found out" sounded a bit like "I messed up, it died" (Shi-cchatta-nn-da → Shi-n-jyatta). Looking at all these comments, it's making me read into even the pronunciation of the lyrics and wondering whether they would make it sound slightly ambiguous to give that nuance... God this is such a creative idea and it's taking me back to those english lit classes, where you have to analyse every single word... Bloody love it

It goes without saying but Yuno’s MV is far easier to decode than Haruka’s. I’m sure everyone’s figured out that her ‘murder’ refers to her abortions. A little cultural context before this interpretation. 『援助交際』 (enjo kousai) is compensated dating, specifically when older men give money/gifts to younger women for dates and ‘other’ services. KZbin, please have mercy. It’s most commonly practised by high school girls and some businesses have been formed around the concept of ‘dating’ these high schoolers. I’m certain this is what Yuno is partaking in. The practice is not limited to Japan, but the term itself is Japanese. There’ll be some paraphrasing since the official translator likely went with certain word/sentence choices to replicate her honeyed way of speaking into English. 0:00 The scene opens with the balloon, one similar to Yuno’s skin tone. Although technically filled with air, it’s ‘empty’. This represents her abdomen/uterus. 0:06 Her starting expression is forlorn, but when she looks at us, she smiles. We’re in the viewpoint of a client for this scene. The shifting of her expression is constant throughout the MV and implies that this line of work doesn’t make her happy. She might believe that material goods can compensate for her loneliness/sadness. 0:23 She’s on the train, likely on the way to school. Her words at this point can be interpreted in two ways. Either, it’s what she tells her clients or it’s a reiteration of a client’s words. The latter is more likely. “This is a little weird. I’m not used to this kinda thing. Don’t tell anyone that I’m interested in you, okay?” implies that this person has a reputation to uphold. At least one of her clients is probably someone of high status (e.g. an executive) or someone who’s meant to be respected (e.g. a teacher). Enjo kousai is shamed, but it’s not uncommon for ‘respectable’ figures to partake in it. Not to mention, Yuno herself doesn’t view authority figures highly. Also, air pods? Really? What a flex. 0:29 She averts her gaze from her phone to the viewer. One of her clients likely spotted Yuno and tried to communicate with her. “Why are you here? It’s a bit annoying. I can’t smile normally anymore because of you” are her inner thoughts aimed towards him. She obviously wouldn’t voice them. In the MV, when Yuno is with a client, she is shown smiling, but since this is outside of her designated time slots, she doesn’t bother. Yuno then looks down at her phone, scrolls up and sees a new notification. The client probably sent her that to get her attention. Her bothered expression is shown in the phone’s reflection. There are also 4 larger ‘profiles pics’ on the app she uses. Those 4 are probably her clients. 0:39 It’s natural to assume that the person in front of her is another client, but judging from how the hands are drawn, this is likely one of Yuno’s peers. She probably asked Yuno if she was alright and Yuno brushed her off with an awkward smile. Yuno either doesn’t want her to know or is giving a knowing smile that her friend can relate to her. 0:45 “Wasn’t tomorrow my day off? Oh well, I guess it doesn’t matter.” She views it as a job and can find it tiresome. The three hearts represent Yuno’s heart, her current client’s, and the foetus’. Her less profitable clients are represented by outlines, whereas the more profitable ones have filled hearts, implying that she puts more effort into her dates with them. The line in the backdrop likely represents an umbilical cord. We see 4 depictions of Yuno, which showcase her clients’ preferences. It’s more confusing to explain them using timestamps, so I’ll describe what can be inferred from each client. Client 1 (yellow top): A less profitable client. He probably likes an outgoing and adventurous character. Her clothes are casual and their date spots aren’t fancy-the park and karaoke. Idk why they chose to display Hachikou’s statue? My guess is that how he waited 9 years for his owner parallels with how mothers wait 9 months for their baby to be delivered. Possibly. In the karaoke scene, it’s clear that Yuno doesn’t view him highly. There’s 『虫』 written on a heart in the background, meaning ‘insect’. Might be what she calls him behind his back. If the red shape is meant to resemble the womb, however, it implies that she thinks of the foetus as a pest. The blue/brown oval on the left-hand side might represent her fertilised egg at the 4 cell stage. Client 2 (school uniform): He’s probably the least profitable client. Might be roughly the same age as her since he doesn’t seem to mind being seen with a highschooler. Either that or he’s into her uniform. He buys cheap gifts like plushies and (overpriced) novelty drinks. Judging by what he gives her, this client is probably into the ‘cuteness factor’. The juxtaposition between the drinks could represent the two sides of Yuno; her saccharine side is for her clients, while the plain and bitter/sour side is for herself/her true friends. Client 3 (shoulderless dress): A high-income client. He takes her to the Tokyo Skytree and treats her to fancy restaurant overlooking the Tokyo tower. Notice how the formatting of her text is different. It implies that she speaks to him in a more elegant manner. He’s also aware that she’s a minor (in Japan) considering how she has a champagne glass full of water. Client 4 (plaid top): Might be the most profitable client. He takes her to an amusement park (Nagashima Spa Land, I think, but feel free to correct me) and his car is lush af. The pigtails and cloud-like speech bubbles give away that he’s into the 『ぶりっ子』(burikko) character; a Western equivalent would be the airhead/baby girl, I guess. It’s slightly more over the top tho. The “I want to meet you as many times as possible” can be both her words or her clients. 0:58 Her balloon is filled with smaller balloons, representing the composition of the foetus. The red balloon represents its heart. 1:00 The stairs represent the double helix structure of her DNA. The gifts, bags and shoes scattered on the staircase could represent the nucleobases. Those coloured balloons represent the nuclei fusion of the male and female gamete, while the white balloons in the background represent sperm cells. 『好きと好きがリンクする』(‘Love’ and ‘love’ links us together) The reason why ‘love/like’ is repeated twice is probably because they’re not referring to the same type of love, i.e. Yuno’s clients like her, but Yuno only likes the material goods they provide her. This ties in with Es’ line 『何かが足りないんだ』(something isn’t enough). Yuno wants more gifts/money. Her clients want more of her. Her relationships are transactional. When Yuno says that she’s alone and that the warmth starts fading, she’s referring to temperature 『温度』. This could refer to how she no longer gets hot flashes/night sweats (usually happens within the first/second trimester) once she’s had the abortion. Whereas the ‘warmth’ she reloads is ‘kindness’/’gentleness’ 『優しさ』. Her sweet persona is an act. 1:13 The 『ふーふー』 (fu, fu) is the sound of Yuno breathing in and out. It can either be interpreted as her being in pain or sighing relief when she finally aborts the foetus. It’s also the sound of her inflating her balloon, which represents the swelling of her uterus/ abdominal bloating. ‘Am I a bad girl?’ and ‘What would you like to do? Tell me’ are examples of Yuno when she sweet-talks her clients. 1:26 “What kind of ‘me’ do you like?” is Yuno asking her clients about their preferences. And how she responds to “I want to be like that, but it’s probably impossible” suggests that she still wants to be true to herself sometimes. Those three shots of her imply how she chats to clients, sends them provocative photos and eventually sleeps with them, but none of these actions makes her happy. When she lowers her phone, there appears to be a baby bump. I think those are Daisies on Yuno’s phone case. In Celtic mythology, they were associated with the death of a child, especially in childbirth, and God would sprinkle the Earth with them to support the grieving parents. In her room, you can see a plushie. It’s a hermit crab, I think. If so, it implies how Yuno changes her character for her clients similar to how hermit crabs change their shells. (Keep the STD jokes at bay.) The poster in her room could be a reference to the (1931) “Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde”, which would also highlight her changes in character. It’s extremely vague tho, so it’s only a hunch. 1:38 『噛み合って、与えあって』(Getting along and giving things) refers to their transactional agreement. It’s translated as ‘play-biting’ because 『噛む』means to bite. The official translation likely wanted to emphasise the physical aspect of her relationships. 1:43 “B mode” is written on her bag. Otherwise known as 2D-mode, it refers to the ultrasound, which can be used to produce an image of the foetus in the womb. (Ugh, I have to split it into 2 again)
@maix18774 жыл бұрын
1:50 These lyrics could be a dialogue between Yuno and her client. What she was trying to ‘find’ was ‘protection’, but he doesn’t want to use it and tells ‘endless lies’. Although irritated, she continues putting on a front, which is “reloading the gentleness”. 2:04 She finds out that she ‘messed up’ and got pregnant. When talking to a client, her voice is more high-pitched, and her phrases are ‘sweeter’/’more feminine’. However, in this case, and during the cut in the interviews, her voice is lower and her way of speaking is ‘rougher’. Just emphasises that it’s all a facade. 2:09 One strand has more masculine items e.g. the brown briefcases and shoes, while Yuno’s is more feminine. The two merge to form new DNA and, alongside Yuno’s giggles/sighs, this implies that she’s currently ‘servicing’ her clients. 2:26 We’re in the viewpoint of the foetus exiting Yuno’s body. 2:29 The balloon bursts, which symbolises the foetus leaving her womb in pieces. All 4 Yunos have an apathetic look on their face as they carry a filled balloon. This suggests that all 4 of her clients have impregnated her at some point. 2:43 She falls, which could’ve caused the miscarriage. It’s likely that she tried to self-induce her abortions, rather than go to a clinic. It costs money and she probably wanted to terminate it before anyone found out. There’s an alternative to this, explained at (2:57). 2:55 The balloon overlapping with her pupil and light in her eyes creates an image of an egg being fertilised. 2:57 The staircase breaks and her balloon is empty again; it was a successful abortion. Although the lyrics are the same as before, the change in translation to “Are we over?” might imply that it’s a client talking this time, asking her what he should do and if he can still see her. If that’s the case, she probably made them pay for medication or clinical visits. If it’s still Yuno talking, she’s trying to seek advice and find a way for them to stay rather than letting them spend on another girl. 3:11 The three staircases, representing DNA, are no longer a vibrant blue, but grey. They represent her dead foetuses, the most recent one being the closest to her. Some extras to add: Yuno’s horoscope is Virgo, represented by ‘the virgin’. The irony. Her name is spelt with the characters 『優』(gentleness, superiority and acting) and 『乃』 (which can denote possession). As for forgiving her or not forgiving her, she says in the CD that she doesn’t really care what the verdict is. So, do as you please? I’ve lost count how many times I’ve looped this song. The chorus is way too catchy for its own good.

I like the theory but rather than Yuno's MV is easier, Im having more of a hard time on deciding for her than Haruka's. Some from discord came up with theories that it is also metaphorical and not really abortion while some pushes for the abortion theory. Either ways of which theory it is, it's harder to choose if to forgive or not (given that some mentioned that the tune of the song all poppy and such may also be included on how they view their sin since it's their memories). I dont know, all of the theories I've seen so far feels like there's something missing but it's a nice theory with lots of details that some I've overlooked.

@uspre13784 жыл бұрын
Second time commenting, but a friend pointed something out to me that made me reevaluate some things. The colors of the balls inside of Yuno's balloon match the various outfits she wears throughout the MV. This caused me to review some things and rethink some things, and I've come up with (what I think is, maybe someone else already said this and I just didn't notice) a new theory about what happened. Here's the analysis: At the start (around 0:10), her holding a blank balloon when she stands up to seemingly greet someone is her as a blank slate. She's yet to figure out what persona to put on. From around 0:21 onwards, we're watching Yuno on the train in her school uniform. I think that this is the beginning of things, the closest we see to her as her "true self" and not putting on a facade to satisfy someone else. This is emphasized by the lyrics indicating that whatever dating stuff she's engaging in on her phone is a new feeling for her-- "I feel a little weird / I'm still not used to feeling this way" and "Why are you here? / You annoy me a little / I can't smile well anymore / It's because of you". Yuno's behaviour here is also different from the entire rest of the MV. She's not acting sweet or kind in any way, rather seeming bored or even bitter. The smile she gives at the end of this segment seems incredibly forced, like she's uncomfortable. This is an important detail to bear in mind for later. Yuno proceeds to have a montage of her various dates, then at 0:57, she squeezes the balloon full of the coloured balls. This was a detail I always found interesting. In the abortion theory, this balloon represents her womb, and the balls represent the baby suddenly growing inside of her. But if that's the case, then it appearing so frequently and so early on strikes me as strange. There's probably some other explanations for that, but for the sake of this theory, I'm disregarding them. The first appearance of these balls in the balloon is right after her date montage, and like I said at the start, they parallel her 4 different appearances/personalities. I think this is the point where she's taking on multiple boyfriends, clients, whatever at once. She's just grasping the balloon for the first time. Right after this moment, the chorus depicts Yuno appearing along a single spiral staircase in her various outfits. This obviously symbolizes her life as it progresses, moving through it using her numerous facades and getting showered in presents and love as she does. The important part here is that there's only one staircase. It's linear. It's under control. The next part just re-emphasizes the earlier points about the balloon symbolizing Yuno as a person. The fu-fu parts that start at around 1:11 show her blowing up the balloon, or maybe just putting it in front of her face. Given the idea about the balls inside and their colours, this probably symbolizes Yuno preparing her various facades, learning to hide behind them as she pleases. This segment also ends with her calling out to an empty second staircase. She's grown more confident than she was at the start, she's learned how to use her various personas, and she's starting to want more. The next bit others have already gone over well enough. "What kind of girl do you like? / I want to become like that", and other lyrics depicting Yuno's need to change herself in order to be more liked by her various partners. The next important part comes with the second chorus-- the second staircase is now covered in presents, and Yuno grows increasingly melancholic. You see her three personas here, not her normal self in the school uniform. Her casual yellow self seems happy, her childish pink self seems a little bored, and her formal green self seems completely exhausted. Yuno is becoming overwhelmed by the multiple lives she's leading. She's growing tired of being different people for different people, and it's growing harder to keep things contained as her relationships grow deeper and deeper. "The lies are endless"-- this lyric is in reference to herself and the grave she's dug herself. Now, the next moment. The lyrics here say "I messed up / I found out", and the two staircases come closer together before colliding and merging. This ends with the balloon bursting and all the balls falling out. When we see the staircase for the final chorus, Yuno only appears in her normal school uniform, holding the balloon containing all her selves. She looks sad and lost in all her appearances, desperately climbing the staircase covered in presents. She begins to fall, then grabs the balloon (which is now empty, important to note) and lands safely as the staircase shatters. She looks over three more staircases in the distance. I think this part signifies everything falling apart. She can no longer keep her various lives apart, she's desperately clinging onto her various facades but she's become completely swallowed by the repercussions of her own actions, and it leads to her beginning to fall. So, the theory I've created from all this is as follows; Yuno had a romantic partner at the very start, someone she completely lost interest in. She doesn't enjoy seeing them, her smiles become more and more forced the more she's around them, and she's generally not happy. This is her as her normal school uniform self. She begins to cheat on this partner with multiple other people. Whether she's doing this to try and find love, to try and be spoiled, any other reason, I can't tell. But whatever her reason is, she's happy with it. She's confident with what she does, and she goes out of her way to keep it going. This leads to it spiralling out of control-- she struggles to keep her multiple lives separate, she becomes more and more miserable, and finally, she's found out. I think her returning to her normal school uniform look at the end signifies that the main fallout happens with her original partner. There's one staircase which shatters, then three more at the end; four relationships total. Assuming each staircase represents a different relationship, this means she experienced the worst repercussions from her original one. This is probably how things escalated to murder. EDIT: I just noticed something else I want to add. Yuno's pose at the start and the end perfectly mirror each other, back turned to the camera with her arms tucked back. At the start, she's looking at a single staircase directly in front of her; at the end, she's looking at three distant staircases. I think this adds more fuel to my theory-- she went from having one close and intimate relationship to destroying it for three superficial ones. EDIT 2: Someone else pointed out to me that the balls inside the balloon are actually smaller balloons! I'd missed that before, but again, it strengthens my theory-- if the large, empty balloon is Yuno herself, then the smaller balloons are her "other selves", her various facades, all contained inside of her. Anyways, I hope that makes sense! Let me know what you think, and if you think you agree. I don't really mind all the pregnancy and abortion theories, I can understand where they're coming from, but I kind of prefer this outlook more. I think I'm voting not guilty either way though!

At first, I thought she did really just kill someone at the end because of all her relationships falling apart, with the first one being the catalyst, but the abortion theory is more concrete and makes the most sense, but we could all being played into believing that. Your interpretation is more plausible to me but I have no idea how crazy the trials can become from now on, but either way, It's kinda hard for me to vote if she's guilty or not, it'd depend on the reasoning behind her actions, be it abortion or the assassination theory, some parts of the lyrics could mean she started "working" because she's just bored, but some could say she was forced somehow, but it's all a stretch.

How you mentioned the "fu-fu" part reminded me of something I learned from an anime (think it's reliable but not sure if the connections intentional) fu-fu is a term meaning something like husband and wife or a couple, so maybe that connects to something?

I personally thought the balloon represented her womb, and it being filled with other objects represented the baby (heart represented the baby's pulse). At the end it becomes empty again. Not only that but the 2 staircases representing DNA (half from the man and half from yuno) coming together as one

Great theory, it's cool to see something besides the common abortion idea.

Yk, the spiral staircases kinda looks like a RNA. RNA is a kind of nucleic acid, holding a genetic information of someone. When the stairs overlaps, it almost looks like a DNA instead. Just a cool thing to pointed out
First off, those who are a little disappointed that it might be an abortion; it is still illegal in many countries and areas around the world. Many think its murder. I've heard many cases in the USA about how some women are charged for abortion and filed under "murder". I think anyone could see that she was going to be expecting a child soon by how she was asking what type of girl did this person like. Doubt its boyfriend because she never talks about love but how much fun the two have together. She might be a sugar baby. 0:30 She says is a secret meaning her job or the fact she is pregnant. "Why are you here?" You are a little annoying" in how having the baby is going to cause problems since she has a customer who does keep seeing her. She's all alone too. 1:20 The colour pallets are mainly blue and pink. Very child-like and bold colours too. Ones you see in a child's room or how people give blue and pink to babies depending on gender. That's why the ones that stand out are those two. She didn't know the babies gender so it must have been less than 20 weeks. 1:34 A baby bump doesn't start until 12 weeks so its a hint that her baby bump was starting. That's why her stomach is shown too. 2:25 The stairs do look like a DNA symbol. 2:44 The stairs are starting to crumble and break. That's when she had decided to finally get the abortion. "The endless lies. Just me alone, it really is lonely." I'm guessing either she had found out that she couldn't keep the baby or the guy who got her pregnant didn't want to do anything with her. That's why she is said she is alone. "Are we over? Let's reload the warmth". Its often joked around how the womb is like an oven or a place you "fill up" when making babies. She had the abortion and figured "What do you want to do? Please tell me" had her wishing that she finally got the abortion and she could still keep seeing this man. This felt a little sad..... Haruka's is sad too. But this is sad in how Yuno was lost and alone in not figuring out what to do now that she had gotten pregnant. She keeps asking "What do you want to do?" in the song so that has me thinking that she asked the guy who got her pregnant. He ignored her questions and soon her. Maybe she's not in love with him but did like spending time with him a lot.

And i think the balloon's meaning is her womb. Like in the first time it's empty, then it's filled but she grasps on it, then it pops, and it gets back empty

Then about the stairs. In 1:01, it just one stair, i think it's her DNA, then at 1:22 there are 2 stairs, i think they are Yuno's and the man's DNA. At 2:08 when the "I messed up i found out" the stairs fuse become 1. I think it means that the baby has come alive in her womb.. Correct me if im wrong, i cant speak Jappanesse fluently 🙏🏻🙏🏻 But however i think she's guilty, not just free sex (cause in my country it's forbidden), she also kills her baby 😢😢
@dheatlyblaze28464 жыл бұрын
One more thing. At 2:04, the japanese lyric said "やっちゃったんだ" (Yacchattanda) which translated "i messed up". But, if im not mistaken, it can also mean "it accidentally happened" which can mean she being pregnant

I don't really buy this, maybe the "murder" was an abortion, but idk about the sugar baby part. I think it could be a boyfriend specially because she does talk about love "Our love links us together" at 1:03 About color palette: I dont think thats much of a hint, since the music is very cutesy and kawaii, those colors are very common with that aesthetic. 1:34 about the baby bumps, I think there would be more hints to it if it was a reference to baby bumps, not just her stomach at the bottom of the frame About the stairs: Ye, makes sense ^^ Basically, I also think it's an abortion but the pregnancy is just with her highschool boyfriend
This is a very subtle and minor thing, but did anyone else notice that from 1:37 to 1:51 you can hear Yuno speaking the lyrics normally alongside the music? I remember this being the case in Haruka's MV too, near the end, though it was a lot less subtle in his. Perhaps these lyrics in both MVs should be especially highlighted for whatever reason?

My take on this: I don't know too much about the series yet so just going off of the videos released so far.. I believe she fell in love with an older guy who was using her. He took her on nice dates and gave her lots of nice gifts - he was probably quite well off and bored of his life (likely he was married and using Yuno to be with a young, excited girl who showered him with attention and wanted to do anything and everything to please him). - this is symbolized by the two staircases: Yuno's with cute and girly gifts and his with men's shoes, briefcases etc.. Then she finds out she is pregnant - 1:33 when she looks down at her body it looks like she has a baby bump.. also the blowing up of pink balloons and the two staircases merging. She tells him about it and he leaves her hence at the end of the song "Are we over? Please don't answer" so she decides to get an abortion since she's all alone and unable to support herself etc - at 1:33 the lyrics are "what kind of girl do you like? I wanna become that but that's probably too hard for me." That could have double meaning of wanting to be the kind of girl her crush wants as well as wanting to be the kind of mother the baby wants but that's too hard for her. At the end there are 3 staircases symbolising the two of them and the baby.
I want to note the fact that when video shows how Yuno meets her clients only when meetings with first client is shown the words "yuno umbilical" connceted by line
Why is Haruka being voted innocent while Yuno is straddling the line? Surely people don't think abortion (which is likely Yuno's crime) is worse than Haruka seemingly choking someone to death? Not to mention he beat a dog with a rock.

It's because anti-abortion people don't actually care about the the well-being of unborn children, it's about controlling women's bodies.
@marudeath35614 жыл бұрын
I voted innocent for her because I think she can do what she wants with her body (even if it's not so healthy for her to get many abortions) and isn't actually doing something that could harm others, but I saw some people vote her guilty because she doesn't regret it and probably continues to get in situations where she gets pregnant without taking precautions. That's a way of seeing things I guess, but she isn't in fact guilty of murder then, she's just being too careless, that's another issue
