Ok... I have a new THEME SONG! *squeels* It's sorta depressing, but I love the song!
Listen to this song below, then the song under it! And, I am sorry for the ADs that come up with the videos... ^.^"
WARNING! YOU NEED A TISSUE WHEN WATCHING BOTH!!!
Prisoner: The setting according to the video seems to be in the time of the infamous holocaust during the World War II. Len is one of the many prisoners who were sent to concentration camps. As he does his routine of cleaning the camp, he encounters a beautiful young maiden (Rin). Len is fascinated by her so he decides to write her a letter one day, hoping the she would answer. His prayers being granted, his letter was given a reply. On a daily basis, they would meet for a brief moment and fly a paper plane across the barbed-wire wall. He found joy in his life just by getting letters from her--though he never conveyed his feelings for her. Until a day came when the mysterious girl decided to head off somewhere far and bade farewell to him. (Though there is an explanation as to why she did go away, it was not interpreted until the reply to the song came). As she went away, he kept all her letters and treasured them dearly until one of the Generals and his henchmen decided to torment the young man by making fun of his attachment to the letters. They went as far as to tear the letters which triggered Len's anger and punched the General. In retort, the men decided to put him in the gas chambers to die as a punishment. Had he not taken action, would he still be alive? The answer is a bit ambiguous. In the gas chambers, he struggles to get out with the thought of seeing the girl once more and ask her her name.
Paper Plane: This song is the reply to Len's "Prisoner" but in Rin's point of view--the young girl whom Len had fallen for. In the video, Rin is the daughter of one of the Generals' in-charge with the concentration camp on which Len was in. Though aware of what is happening around her, she still sought for the accompany of Len, even with her frail body. She goes to meet with Len and fly him a paper plane--the letter--even though she suffers from a terrible illness which was never clarrified in the story. She eventually falls for him but as soon as she does, her father found out about her affair and forbade her to go out of the hospital and meet the boy. As time goes by, Rin gets weaker and weaker that moving her legs proved to be very difficult for her. She then decides to bid farewell to Len properly so he won't have to search for her or ponder of what happened to her. She makes an excuse that she'll be going somewhere far away, but as soon as she was about to leave, Len tells her that he will wait for her and that he'll treasure each and every letter she gave him. As the story goes on, it is shown that Rin's father was the one who put Len in even more agony by ripping the letters from Rin. He was also the one who gave the order to execute Len. Rin on the other hand, is already paralyzed from the illness that she couldn't even grasp one of Len's letters. However, seeing how devoted Rin has become to Len, the father picked up the letter and placed it in her hand as a final act of kindness to his dying daughter. Rin is shown smiling when she dies, In "heaven" Rin is found in front of the barbed-wire wall, the very same way she stood when she first met Len. It is then shown that on the other side, Len was there, only this time, the wall disappears. With that, they found true happiness by being with each other in their own world. This PV and Prisoner's display Rin and Len as a couple or two people of no blood-relation--which is why many Kagamine fans find it hard to watch with the thought of "Twincest" covering the story.
It's from Vocaloid, a Japanese Video Game! Look up Vocaliod on Youtube or Google for more information! And, I learned all my Japanese from Anime and Songs! xD (The kid singing Prisoner is around.. Er... 12? 13? IDK, but he's GOOD! No... Wait... They're both 14! xD I WAS CLOSE! They made the song for Vocaliod, and he (Len who sings Prisoner and part of Paper Plane) and his twin Sister (Rin sings Paper Plane) have their own versions! I, personally, think that len's version sounds MUCH better... And, it makes me cry when I listen/watch it... T^T) Oh! And, I just looked them up! They are voiced by the EXACT same person! The Japanese Lady doing teir voices can make a Girl and Boy voice! *squeels* Oh! And, the lady doing their voices is... Er... She looks around... 20? IDK... xD
O.o...
I really want Vocaloid now... T^T
Oh! Look at this: vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/Rin/Len_Kagamine Vocaloid Wiki! That's for Len and Rin, so look at what their other songs are/mean! :3 They're... Depressing... For most of them.. xD
