I hope satsuki could take a break, whatever they release, or not, wether it's a dark song, upbeat one, or a shitpost, I hope they get the freedom to do what they wish to do.
dont worry satsuki, create whatever you want. there's no need to keep creating more "mesmerizers" at all. all your songs are still so amazing

Honestly I was worried about Satsuki after the absolute popularity of Mesmerizer. He was a small producer, and even after winning the song contest for Project Sekai, he's still relatively unknown. Then Mesmerizer came and changed everything. Suddenly he is a big, popular producer worldwide. I can imagine how much happiness and pressure he felt, and this song literally confirms it. I am so glad this song ends in a good note. That's right, Satsuki, please make any song that you enjoy! Even if some people end up leaving, there will always be some loyal fans who stay! We'll look forward to your songs from now on!

Couldn't agree more! Caring about what your fans want is great, but ultimately, you should create music that _you_ want to create. As a producer, there's nothing better than being true to who you are.
There is something incredibly poetic about everyone meming to hell and back that Neru was the one behind mesmerizer and the creator of the song was very aware of this and decided to make a new song where she’s pulling the strings. And now I’m going to imagine this song is the prequel to it as Neru just used borderline kidnapping and controlling tactics before switching to hypnosis.

@@Psydkik i think that was intentional! i ran the lyrics through google translate and the producer seems to be feeling pressured by the expectations set by how mesmerizer exploded in popularity faster than almost every other vocaloid song to date. i think they feel like everyone just wants more mesmerizer from them, and they also comment on how quickly trends change, as well as how people consume media without really understanding it.

@@impetuouswinds After I listened to Mesmerizer, I got curious on what other songs Satsuki made. At the time of scrolling through their videos, I realized that they havent posted any new songs for a while.. that being 5 months. I was kinda getting worried about their well being, because well... having something you made gain that much attention in such a short period of time must be somewhat frightening and would probably put a ton of pressure on you.. Im glad Satsukis back, but I really hope they're doing okay after that giant explosion of popularity ':D

I think this song is about the popularity of mesmerizer, and how 32ki doesn't want to make "new mesmerizers" forever. The lyrics seem to be talking about trends, and the line "following in the footsteps of your own success" makes it feel even more like the song is in fact about mesmerizer. i think this is a common thing for many creators too. One thing goes viral, and then it defines your existence on the internet. I think the lesson to learn from this is to let people get popular, but not call everything they make a new version of their most popular creation. EDIT: PLEASE STOP I HAVE A WIFE AND KIDS

From the lyrics it seems this song may be about pessimism? I dont remember the exact lyrics but its smth like "no matter how good you think it is ot will always be as good as trash from the other side" and it kinda proves my point
I really really like this song!! To me, it's all about 32ki's fear of peaking with Mesmerizer. Food imagery is used as a metaphor for his music, and the title, "Obsolete Meat", encapsulates his fear of "falling off" and become obsolete after Mesmerizer. The story of the music video reads to me like this: Miku and Teto start off eating small but good quality food. Things like burger, steak, and curry rice, that are substantial meals. This represents 32ki's music pre-Mesmerizer, how he was a less known producer with a small but dedicated fanbase, making music he felt proud of. Then, before the first chorus, they get a giant feast. There's lots of food here of even higher quality, and they eat it more ravenously than anything else. They can't get enough of this meal. This part represents Mesmerizer and the sudden, unexpected explosion in popularity it received. After the first chorus, Miku and Teto are stuffed from their enjoyment of the big feast. But then, they're handed another menu and asked to keep eating. They seem hesitant, and for the second verse, all the food they eat is low quality junk food. When they're given the same small but quality meals like those from the first verse, like the fried egg and the omelette rice, they react negatively and don't even touch it. Finally, they get up to leave the restaurant. This segment is 32ki's fear of his future career; he feels pressured to continue the hype from Mesmerizer, to try and replicate its success in ways he feels would be shallow and low quality. And if he tries to go back to the kinds of music he made before, nobody would actually want it or care about it. Then, they're pulled back into the restaurant by Akita Neru, who expects them to keep eating no matter what. To me, Neru in this song represents the Mesmerizer fandom that's blown largely beyond 32ki. All the "Neru is the mastermind" memes and theories that have effectively been canonized. She is the fan response to Mesmerizer, and the fans who just want more Mesmerizer and nothing else. But I think it's worth noting that 32ki doesn't seem bitter or resentful of these fans. When we next see Neru, she looks innocently happy and excited, even though Miku and Teto are reaching their limit of food. It's a small detail, but it's important to note to convey that this song isn't some kind of hate message towards Mesmerizer fans. Its success changed 32ki's life, and he's obviously grateful to everyone who made it possible. This is a song about his own perceived anxieties for what the next step after such a big song could be. And of course, it ends with Miku and Teto passing out, completely overstuffed. There's no official translation yet, so I don't want to look too closely at the lyrics, but here's a few select lines I could decipher from machine translations that help hammer this reading of the song home: "Every time a new meal is served, nostalgia wells up from somewhere It's the same move every year. That's what makes me so full." "So, for example. In a few years, if the spotlight is shining somewhere else, will you still be by my side at that time?" "We are on the extension line of fashion and fad, and decay. Before the expiration date has passed, it's quickly thrown away, and the 'next order' is placed..." "If you keep eating imitations, you'll get tired of the same taste. Soon you'll be sick of this place too, so after you've eaten as much as you like, put your hands together and say thank you for the meal." That final line makes me feel that this is ultimately a hopeful song. 32ki is going to continue making the music he wants, even if it costs him his popularity. "Put your hands together and say thank you for the meal"-- he hopes the fanbase he gained through Mesmerizer will stay, but even if they don't, he's happy that he was able to satisfy them with at least one song. All of this interpretation is subject to change once there's official English lyrics, and perhaps once I see other people's thoughts and theories as well! I just wanted to record my first thoughts. Thank you for reading!

Rewatching and understanding the lyrics carefully, I wonder if it's how Satsuki feels after getting overly popular after one song. “Please release a new song soon.", “It's like the new mesmerizer!" I really like it because seeing other people commenting things like that and treating the creators like slow processed food makes me wonder how they would feel reading that and getting overwhelmed by popularity and fear of losing reputation (2:59) I respect them for being open and expressing themselves through their music. Please do whatever you want and make sure to enjoy your life without stress.❤

I also enjoy them as well, I can see why Mesmerizer exploded with all the shock values, extremely fast-paced rhythm along with information overload with dark undertones. But personally I prefer none of that, take away the shock and mysteries and to me, Mesmerizer sound just...okay. Not great, just okay as a song.

This song is amazing and I can relate so much to the message of the fear of being a one-hit-wonder, I want to persue art as my career, but I have this constant fear that I will get popular for a single work and never be known for anything else, and the fact that people are only comparing this song to mesmerizer is heartbreaking. I immediately turned on English subtitles to make sure I was getting in the entire message of the song (which it seems that almost no English speaker on the Internet did), the music and lyrics are nothing like Mesmerizer, people just see Miku and Teto in employee uniforms and side-by-side dancing and think "Oh, Mezmerizer rip-off." And never look up the lyrics. Keep doing what you do best, buddy, I love your music! 🫶
