Tokyo Ghetto (English Cover)【JubyPhonic】トーキョーゲットー

[@hatopoppo_niki]

I'm japanese people🇯🇵🇯🇵 My English is maybe funny but I want your guys to read this.🥺🥺 This MV represents a child who will grow up. The monster in the MV is an adult from a boy's perspective, and the girl represents a boy who was innocent in the past. Teenager doesn't want to be an adult, but they yearn for an adult. But the boy recalls his childhood rather than his innocence. In other words, it represents an adult who doesn't want to have a monster, and a girl represents a childhood that he wants to return to. This song is trying to show you that you're going to grow up with courage.

[@hatopoppo_niki]

Also, what I want to tell you about is that the MV and lyrics of Eve have a lot of meaning, so it's a lot of fun considering that.

[@panic3815]

I think it could work cause the lyrics say "treasure what you have now, didn't mean a thing" it's what adults tell children, but obviously children don't really understand.

[@reidw9698]

I think this story is based around the boy and girl (who is also the blue man), and his inability to accept the fact he's in an abusive relationship with the girl/blue man. From what we've seen at the beginning, and the various shades of blue, and overall just sad and dull feeling we get from the video is that the young man is depressed, he's been depressed for a while, but finds happiness with a girl he's falling in love with. But the only part of her he's in love with is the venison of her he idolises, ignoring her flaws and the overall bad person and even monster she can be. Parts like 2:20 which he puts in her in an actual spotlight and 2:03 where he chases after the ghost of what he wants, the empty shell of what he thinks she is. But she's not, she's not a good person and moments like 2:16 where he's seemly taking thus blue man? (the girl) out for dinner but chooses to not pay attention of what's in front of him, but instead in his own head. All the pairs of shoes in 2:55 could represent the amount of people's lives she's already ruined, and he's next as she takes a bite out of the shoe she's holding in 3:03. In 3:48 we see the blue man standing over the man with a clear umbrella, only for at to 3:50 switch to the girl with the same clear umbrella, staring him down with an unamused look. Near the the end of the video with see a glimpse of the girl at 4:07 and she turns back into the monster, staring down what she sees the boy as after killing him, trash. The flooding represents all the lies and shitiness the boy had tired so hard to ignore about the girl and shutout it all out but it eventually came all flooding out and overwhelming him. The lyrics refer to "And here you’ll always stay" makes me feel he won't able to leave this situation if he doesn't do anything to help himself. "Afraid of letting go now, afraid to move." Also proves that he's scared to leave, he doesn't want this to end and he doesn't want to do anything about it. The boy eventually knows the girl's love for him is shallow and lyrics such as "Always looking at you far away, adoring everything you say, but every time I fell for you, inside it all, the less I knew"and “Treasure what you have now” they’re pretty words but didn’t mean a thing" means he's starting to feel a discount with her and feels whatever she's saying is fake and superficial. At the end of everything I don't think she really kills him but rather rips him apart and breaks his heart.

[@sprucewillowstein6762]

This is an excellent theory. Good job!

[@kishoarima1423]

This is an amazing theory. But, what do all the other people ( Or monsters ) represent? All the other people she has ruined the lives of maybe?

[@eeshmegeesh8245]

@@kishoarima1423 I think they are people as wel but it's set in a bad kinda neighborhood when he follows the ghost and bumps into someone the "person" gives him a very nasty look. The same as when he is standing in front of the monster that's telling him off

[@AnnieMay_1114]

Got any idea as to the meaning of when the boy changes to someone with white hair an eyes floating around them. He appears as 1:16 for a total of three frames (and agin in the final chorus) as well as at 1:41 holding a gun at the monster man. I think it';s also that form at 1:10, just really curious since it's actually this face that is used as the thumbnail on eve's original video

[@tsunamininja]

In particular during the ending scene/s with the umbrella, it's the blue man from an outsiders perspective but the girl from (presumably) the boy's perspective 3:48

I really enjoy how you worked this into English. The lyrics are beautifully placed and convey exactly what the original song expresses. Seriously, I'm impressed. The band (Eve) has a manga out called "Kara No Kioku" (which basically translates to Memory of the Void). There's a mega-theory that uses all of Eve's music videos to tell a much bigger story, but I'm excited to find out from the manga what everything means. At any rate, the theme of this song in particular is supposed to be about anxiety and depression and how the main character (MC) is dealing with it. As you've guessed, there is a LOT to unpack with even just one of these music videos. The "blue man" is supposed to representative of the MC's anxiety/depression, plotting against the MC but also acting as the MC's only source of comfort. The lyrics "and here you'll always stay" is supposed to reflect that the MC either needs to push past those walls. Lyrics "Don't know how I can start again" followed up with "afraid to move, so here you'll always stay" - it all reinforces the idea that the MC feels trapped without any way out. The girl is supposed to be representative of the MC's "way out" so to speak. Like I said, there is a lot to unpack lol. She could be someone from his past that symbolizes what he once had and how that past is something he's holding on to, which the blue man uses against him (anxiety). Holding on to that and idolizing her and that memory has only become toxic, but he can either let go or "here you'll always stay". The end doesn't necessarily imply suicide, but rather "utter defeat". We see the blue man with the transparent umbrella, then cut to the girl with that same umbrella. Shortly, we see the blue man standing over the trash can with the MC's body in it (earlier in the MV you see that trash can with mannequin parts, you see it again without those parts, and then here with the MC's body). The blue man has won, convincing the MC that staying where he is and never confronting his emotions or issues is the only thing he can do. The shoes being tied up could symbolizing traveling or lonliness (they are in Japan, so their culture of shoes tied up isn't going to reflect drug dealing the way we see it in America, though it isn't ruled out either as Eve's MVs are super symbolic with layer upon layers of depth and artistic value). In that sense, the MC's options are all tied up, all of the roads he could have taken are exhausted. This could also be the blue man (disguised as the girl/working with the girl) to convince the MC that suicide might be his only option. The ribbon on the girl is red, which the shoe she is holding also is tied up with something red. It's possible that red is symbolic to another MV, but I won't go down that road lol. Ultimately, (thanks for reading this far), the theme revolves around the MC's inability to cope with his issues in a healthy manner, his repeating a cycle of self-torment, and his inability to connect with anyone else.

I think this is actually the story of a boy who grew up in less-than-stellar circumstances and wound up getting into a criminal life of sorts, hence "Tokyo Ghetto" - Ghetto's being infamous for being places where crime run rampant. He meets a girl who he falls madly in love with that makes him have second thoughts about his old lifestyle (which is represented by the Blue Robot Thing which is dressed sort of like a robber of sorts) and this song/video is about his desire to escape his life of crime, but that he ultimately fails to escape it. "Feeling their dark glare: Not a sound out there, but I know they're following me everywhere." The protagonist is well aware that his old crowd is looking for him. He's actively trying to escape the life of crime, but it's not so easy to run from. "Never gonna see again. Goodbye to a spell and to the night coming to an end." is likely referring to the idea that much like the famous fairytale Cinderella, the 'magical girl' he met who changed his life will likely be someone he'll never be able to attain. He feels like perhaps he might not see her again? "My days and my nights went on and on until you found me." I think is referring to the idea that until he met this person, his life was simply cyclical, and aimless without end. "Coffee Stains cover my life." -- Again, this person has a pretty ugly stain on their life due to their life of crime. "You found me and then I suddenly -- I don't know how I can move again." - He's now uncertain of how to move forward in life after meeting this person that made him have second thoughts. "Afraid of letting go now, Afraid to move so here you'll always stay." -- Again, like previously stated he doesn't want to give up his old life of crime, but he also doesn't want to give up the chance to be with this dream girl he's met. "Deny my heart, or Deny the mess i've made? I'm starting anyways." -- Simply put, does he choose the girl and leave his life of crime, or does he choose crime and deny the girl. Either way, live moves on. "Words so tender but how? That's not what you were really like. That look/face still became so beautiful." -- The romanticized idea of the life of crime, despite it being horrendous. The protagonist clearly understands that crime is an awful thing, but he can't help but find the romanticized image of crime to be something that pulls him towards it. You'll notice in the video that the Blue Robot Thing has both of them in a picture frame together, but cuts the guy out -- That's because his life of crime has no room for a significant other. Immediately after the girl is shown with various hanging shoes and bites into a shoe, which visibly bleeds. What should be noted however is they they're dangled by a red string, which I think is indicative of the red string of fate (which is commonly used to represent two being being tied together by fate) However, she takes a bite out of it. Part of me thinks this is the woman ending the relationship with the protag, due to them continuing their life of crime. Soon after, the protagonist is seen scrounging on the ground, and is "flailing in the darkness" in another panel -- probably a good sign that he is lost and no longer has a sense of direction. He falls back into a life of crime, and due to his seperation the "floodgates" (which represent the Inescapable circumstances of the Ghetto) open up and hastily swallow up the protagonist and push him back down to a new low in his life. Ultimately, he is both figuratively and literally consumed by his life of crime -- which ends in his death while the girl he met can only look onwards in sadness at the protagonist. He is chewed up and spit out as trash, and the Ghetto consumes another victim.

The message u said at the beginning kinda reminds me of Ash from the anime banana fish (just felt like I had to say that 😅)

[@pashacello4494]

I don't know man, but it's somehow accurate

[@_sleepyaisha_]

I believe the "Treasure what you have now, they're pretty words that don't mean a thing," refer to the girl (most likely) or someone in his crime ring telling him, well, this isn't going to last, so live in it. "And here you'll always stay," refers to never being able to escape the life of crime. Edit: there are two of the blue men that are nearly identical, but the base colors of their masks are different. The one with the white mask is the boy's and it seems to be just lurking and following? It shows up the most often though. The one with the black mask is the girl's though. It appears at the end and takes her place before the umbrella scene and in the transformation scene.

[@jasonnorris3292]

Im incredibly late to this comment section. Seeing as their are already multiple essay length comments on people's theories ill summarize this to bullet points to save you some time :). I believe that: • The boy is an outsider, a reject from society, someone that doesnt fit in, yet he is trying to integrate into society (crossing the wire fence in the beginning). • The blue man is the embodiment of the boy's anxiety and fear. • The integration goes very poorly, and he is considering suicide (the mannequin in the trash bin) however one thing goes well... • He meets a girl who understands him, who gives him a chance, she knows what it is like to be a reject, yet she still functions in society. She is perfect in the boy's eyes. This meeting gives the boy hope, (the next shot of the trash bin, this time it is empty, his suicidal thoughts are being warded off). • However the boy is terrified to take the next step, he is scared the girl will abandon him if he confesses his love for her, "afraid of letting go now, afraid to move", (despite the fact that this is exactly what she needs him to do). He does his best to keep the situation exactly as it is, frozen in place "so here you'll always stay". • However due to his unwillingness to make any further moves towards the girl they begin to drift apart (the blue man standing under the umbrella with his arm around the girl, as it was his anxiety which took the girl from him). • The boy tries his hardest to recover what he has lost, (him running after the girl and searching in the dark for her). However it cannot be done, his opportunity for happiness was stolen from him by the blue man, and now despair sets in (flooding water represents him drowning in despair) he tries to escape it and runs from it, but ultimately it catches him. • His ward against suicidal thoughts having been taken from him by the blue man, and utter despair having caught him, the boy is now at the mercy of his dark thoughts, at which point his anxiety transfroms into a gigantic unknowably horrific monster which murders him (the boy commits suicide). At the end the trash bin is filled with the boy's corpse, and the blue man stares down proudly at the atrocity that he caused, his handywork. • The reason we see the girl in the final few shots is because the boys final thoughts were of the girl, his regret and what could have been, she is seen earlier standing behind police tape, with a mournful look on her face, i believe this is her reaction when she discovers that the boy ended his life, she feels this way because she was still waiting for him to admit his love...

[@dari957]

I've seen a lot of people that think this the story of an abusive relationship, but I think this is the story of a boy who had multiple personalities. The reason is that you sometimes see the boy transform into the girl, and the girl transform into the blue dude. I feel like they're all the same person, and when the song says "So overcome the real one" it's talking about the real persona, the boy. At the end you see the girl standing in front of a trash can, and that could mean the boy was defeated and "thrown away" . But I could be totally wrong. It's just my opinion

[@justathing4607]

He kills himself instead of accepting love because he feels undeserving. And lives in perpetual reflective sorrow. Over coming something that can't be understood. Never knowing who he is. Who he really is. Becoming his eternal home, self punishment, and identity until he leaves.

I know I’m late but here’s my theory; He’s a waiter at a restaurant (the way he’s dressed and him picking up a towel, and the part about the coffe stains) and he’s lonely then he meets a coworker (she’s dressed like him) and she’s single (her holding the single tied shoe) and he can’t talk to her because his anxiety (the guy in the jacket) won’t let him. He thinks about her a lot (the scene where the shoes walk away from him and it cuts to a guy knocking on the wall by him) eventually after chasing this girl for some time his fear of asking her consumed him (the end where the guy turns into a monster and eats him)

[@Dilicrochet]

Это одна из моих любимых песен! Большое спасибо за кавер, он шикарен! ( Отдельно респект yapappas за русские субтитры)

[@deesief8212]

A theory from me . . I think that the whole ghetto and everything is just the main character himself. The girl represents the Main Character's Love, or maybe happy feelings. The blue guy represents his feelings for his hunger, lust, or maybe sanity. His love was soon tainted by his feelings of sanity. The Blue Guy. He soon feels that everything is the end, and a flood came afterwards which shows that he is already broken.

[@rs_mind8352]

A tjhin If we take a more literal approach, the phrase “and here you’ll always stay” is said a lot, most importantly at the very end, where the main character stands over a trashcan full of what appears to be the girl. Based on early lyrics, he was likely initially caught up in work, explaining all the coffee, and grew to hate the world. The girl showed him another perspective, and he ended up being obsessed with her, but she was killed, leading to the trashcan. In the animation, every character but those two are in the same style, meaning it’s probably the main character’s warped worldview. The blue man in many shots stands over the main character, leading me to believe he’s his boss or leader in some way.

[@deesief8212]

@@rs_mind8352 ah i see

[@gloomywheel8378]

A tjhin I think the blue guy is the real him, but it’s a him filled with anxiety and fear. The boy is who he wants to be, this would make sense of the lines “overcome the real one or be afraid and here you will always stay” if he doesn’t overcome his fears he will never be together with the girl and he will never move forward in life.

[@Jay-ti7wm]

For me personally I think this song is about the mc(the mainboy in the song) and the girl being kidnapped together by the blue man. And the girl throughout acts and is most refered to be a ghost or not actually there throughout the song. And right before mc boy gets his head bitten off, the girl stands behind 'caution'tape. Most likely saying that people found her body. And I do believe the whole song is about mc trying to outrun the killer but not being able to because he's flooded with emotions of how he could've saved her or how they got theirselves into this mess(I still rewind that moment in my mind), contemplating how he's going to move on without the girl (i don't know, i don't know how I can love again) And maybe the girl knew that the blue man was going to kill her(you said "treasure what you have now" such pretty words that didn't mean a thing) [I didn't know where to put this but in the scene with the girl surrounded by the shoes might mean the blue man is only trying to kill girls that resembles something or someone] And since mc dies at the end, I think he didn't outrun the killer, dying right next to the girl. Or uh, something like that haha.. Just my first impressions about the song

[@deesief8212]

Everyone have different perspective and I see a lot of you have really good ones!

Remember kids: love never dies, it merely changes form. Don't let your broken heart stay like it is, don't stay idle as the world tears you down. but INSTEAD remember love can regrow, like how a seed can become a flower using days of sunlight, nutrients, water, and corpses of older life to build anew.

Sat up last night seeing if this would drop after the sleep deprived preview on twitter, didn't come, goes to bed, wakes up, "posted 7 hours ago" DAMMIT Anyway A++ as usual, a fantastic end result I bet Eve would be proud.

[@electricangel3161]

A minute of your time, please! Personally...I don't like this. And before you spam me with hate comments, hear me out. I love Juby's work. My favorite cover she's ever done is Bad Apple. It rocks! It's probably that I grew to attached to the anesthetic of the original or what. The main thing is probably the autotune. Juby, in my opinion, you don't need it. Just giving constructive criticism, you can still make your songs the way you like! The squeaks of autotune, especially at 1:06. Tokyo Ghetto is a rather depressing song. I think adding autotune plus Juby's original voice is like adding glitter to Heavy Metal music or mixing dubstep with Purple Rain by Prince. Again, just my opinion. I won't downvote this because I can still see the amount of hard work Juby put into making this, but it still irritates me when fanboys/girls attack anyone who dislikes this for having an opinion. Thank you for your time! And a song I would really like you to cover, if you haven't already (and if you're reading this, Juby), is The Secret of That Girl. I think it's bubbly beat would be perfect for your voice! :D

[@unovi8141]

I definitely agree on the autotune thing. She's shown she can do it wonderfully without. And personally I do think she has done depressing songs in the kind of tone necessary to back it up. Admittedly I wasn't crazy about this one either.

[@ziayremichaelis]

I appreciate this. Your comment is a well-written, constructive critique that doesn't attack the artist, demean their work, or provoke any (rational) person to the defensive. I sincerely hope you don't get spammed with hate comments; it would be such a shame if someone decided to respond to a genuinely nice critique in an aggressive way.

[@bodacious2725]

I agree, I think that Juby's voice is so beautiful and bubbly (and sounds like an anime char) she should sing nice bubbly songs like her spirit. and before this goes down with hate comments i want to say that Juby doesn't need the autotone to make the song better, i think the song would be perfect if there was no autotone. but i do like the song and Juby's work. This song was actually the second song i have listened to on her channel. And if Juby ever gets a chance to read this, I want her to know that her songs have a lot of hard work and beautiful tone in them. And i wish i could have a voice like hers :)

[@artfart05]
