Fun fact professional jesters (ones who werent simply disabled or mentally challenged like some of them were) were actually pretty powerful in politics, rhey were openly allowed to mock anyone or anything including the king, and were often also a voice of reason because of such, they could point out any problems or dumb decisions with zero reason to hold back about the stupidity of them, and could paint anything in a bad light with no consequences, they also were often the okes to give bad news to the king because of this immunity, and they often would give advice to the king aswell, they also played a part in antagonizing and enraging enemies toakw them act out and make poor decisions. Theres even a case where a jester was going to be executed but the jester made a joke so good the king instead only exiled him.

[@Q27Forever]

That jester at the end of the story was actually him he dodged a bullet with pure humour

[@bellaconnor6816]

The level to which they could mock the king, though, varried depending on their tempermant, and it would be advisable to still come at any mocking with some tact

They weren't just entertainers. They would often have special duties like caring for the kings hounds, keeping track of public opinion, maintaining morale when traveling with armies in times of war, organizing psychological warfare to demoralise enemies just before battle, and going on risky diplomatic missions where they might be killed (sometimes they would send the court jester who was literate and a good speaker so a noble wouldn't have to risk their life). Court jesters had to be more educated than most to fulfill such a wide range of duties and they were highly respected for it.

Anyone notice how the mask markings appear on his face at the end?

[@ExGabranth91]

I love how his face depicts his mask after the beheading, pretty much showing how he was revived by the demon king as the very thing he depicted. In a world of cruelty and cold calculation, a world where he took the role of a jester to undermine the evil kings plans, the female knight showed him, that his role as a jester fits him well, she reminded him how to smile and what it means to be a jester. It probably helped him realizing that this role was meant for him, not just to undermine the evil king but also to enjoy his life, entertain people around him and inspire them. He embreaced to be a jester and in the end, the demon king revived him as such: a demonic jester.

[@bryceflaming3702]

I like that when the jester returns from the dead his face and the mask have merged, a nice touch along with the little horns.

[@denisgavrylenko3684]

So what I did understand :the jester was a poor kid ,or a slave; then he got saved by the female knight ,( who he fell in love with; maybe) . 3:20 You see the memory of her giving him the mask , maybe she insisted on him becoming the jester, then she clearly tells him to always smile . At first the jester seems happy entertaining people; but then comes the female knight's execution (2:10 ) and he goes insane (2:37). After he proceds going to kill the king, but fails, resulting in his death, with a guillotine and his head getting chopped off . The people look shocked (3:55) because they seen him as a good person. Then he, presumably makes a deal with a demon and revives, starting a rebbellion and killing the king (with magic !? cause he doesn't touch the king directly but he starts spitting blood and then colapses on the floor ) . Personally I thought that the last phrase "Let me the fool, let me, the jester, a new saga now compose" meant start a new era. Only one thing the book? That the king holds at 4:22 - 4:23 4:57 he holds it even in the moments of his death.; 5:02 the book has an eye on it , is it the illuminati ? or some sort of book of onniscience. The jester says at 4:53 " All the power in the world could never save you now" is he reffering to the book? Does it hold magical power? 5:10 - 5:15 Upon further rewatch, Is the jester giving that book to the demon?

So basically, CJ court jester, who aperes to have very little memories, works as an informant trying to overthrow an evil king. Along the way he meets a female knight who he loves. She was reportedly killed on a mission (potentially on the kings orders), this causes CJ to go insane and try to murder the shit out of the king but he is captured and publicly executed. Seeing the king execute someone who was both a beloved figure head and a child the towns people start a revolt. Although he is finally reunited with the love of his life he makes a contract with a demon to overthrow the kingdom, and in exchange he returns an evil magical book that the king used or he became a servant of the dark lord forever and always.

I love that instead of killing the king himself, he saw the cracks in his rule and sparked a revolution that would take him down. A revenge from the grave. As I was watching and it kept referencing how people’s times were coming to a close, I imagined that he had the ability to see people’s lifespans and took upon himself to kill anyone whose time ran out and protect anyone who still had time left.

[@zachjaeger6401]

I like how it makes you ask this, Is the jester good an anti hero or evil the animation is so good since you can't tell if he is a mentally broken man, a greedy person after the throne or fighting against a tyrant and his group of cruel nobles. I also like how if it's the last one at the execution scene you could think it's the reading before the decapitation and his promise to get into better health or the jesters claim that the king is corrupt and he will return or maybe even both.

Us jesters are those who have the power to rule but let others rule for our entertainment. A world lead by us would be a world not forgotten.

This is one of my favorite songs, I've been listening to various versions of the songs accompanied by arts and animations. This is one of the more compelling art and animation with a seemingly fleshed out interpretation of the song. It was great, props to everyone that was involved in this project, especially to the ones that brought the song to fruition.

[@Eenyay]

I've decided to retell the story because it's a bit confusing. Sorry if it's kinda long In another world, a king has reigned for a very long time. A young man, who has supposedly been exiled, comes to work in this new kingdom serving the dying king as a court jester. He gets the position, and everyone loves him. He gets to hear important information about the kingdom, which he spreads to the kingdom's enemies. While working there, he met a female knight with whom he fell in love. Inevitably, she has to leave for a mission, but later, when reading a news article, the jester learns she has died in an "accident". He knows immediately that it is not an accident, and the king had set her up to die (presumably for sexist purposes?).briefly

I get so many ideas from songs like these! It's already coming to me; A Jester-like entity that is a messenger of the devil? He's sent to tell the king he's dying soon, but goes rogue and ends up taking the kingdom over. It'd sort of make sense because Jesters were tasked with delivering bad news to the king and jesters are just kickass villains.

Fun fact jesters were actually really important to a kingdoms for they gave opinions of the country without being executed and they held military secrets and kingdom secrets and personal information of the king and they were also used to send military messages to the king because most people wouldn't want to kill a "useless jester" that was a very common idea.

[@tuluppampam]

Jesters could, at times, deliver bad news freely without problems, but they weren't as important as they're made out to be They were mostly there to entertain, and most were professional in that specific job, even travelling around in many courts The delivery of more important messages was left to more important people, who would have been received properly and may as well be considered a guarantee of its authenticity

This seems like a perfect song for Pink Diamond: -she's a member of the highest form of authority in her kingdom yet the lowest in terms of standing compared to the other members. -Her only expected Purpose as a member of her family's royal court is to throw parties to celebrate success and entertain others when they're not busy. -gets punished severely (via isolation) if her antics get too far out of hand. Disillusioned by the status quo as a result but kept a smiling facade in spite of her misery. -eventually started a revolt against the highest authority for the sake of the people (by Exploiting the expectations of the status quo to Fool everyone in the process) Resulting in (self-)exile. -had to Die first before winning against the ruler of her people. Leading them to start a new era... through her son.
