【MMD Persona 5】 ECHO 【Goro Akechi】

Описание: WATCH IN 1080p HD cuz the quality will be horrible otherwise
YO I DID NOT EXPECT TO MAKE AN MMD THAT IS OVER 5 MINUTES I'M SORRY-
MMD credits are at the end of this video cuz I have A LOT to say about my intentions here.
This video would have taken be about 2 weeks to finish but I had to deal with seasonal allergies and constant mucus in my throat that it hindered my productivity. 😞

Song used: ECHO cover by あらき (Araki)
   • ECHO　歌った　【あらき】  

I chose this cover of ECHO because the the singer sung it in a way that sounds as if they are screaming out their mental struggles and I thought it fits Akechi in that regard.

Speaking of Akechi, this character really grew on me in the past few months. I first heard of him 2 years ago in a really…. memeful way… I won’t get into the details on that it’s embarrassing 😂 I used to call him that one traitor bitch out of laughs and not really out of hate. It wasn’t until April-May 2019 that I begin to take a liking to him because of pancakes and memes (you know I love memes). My liking to him happened shortly after Joker got in Smash Ultimate as a DLC and I saw that Joker got that alternate color (white with brown hair) that references Akechi and I was like “oh! Aren’t those Akechi’s colors?” so yeah. Then later on I began to realize that Akechi’s past is actually a lot deeper than what the game showed me, causing me to like him exponentially.

So before I explain my intentions in my video, I will explain some Akechi background first so that you'll understand what's really going on. Please read this google doc I made about it (because Youtube descriptions have a limit of 5000 characters):

But ANYWAY I chose this song for Akechi because the lyrics somehow made me think of him. I like the whole concept of “You are your own worst enemy”, because I do agree that the human mind is double-edged sword towards ourselves. Please read my google doc description on what each lyrics means in this video (because Youtube descriptions have a limit of 5000 characters):

Another side note that when I was making that pool of blood scene, I got that idea and reference from the Tokyo Ghoul :Re manga where Kaneki in his mental subconscious, was going to drown himself in a river before Hide saved him if I recall correctly. Also near the end of Tokyo Ghoul :Re, he was in his subconscious again, but with Rize in a place surrounded by an ocean of blood.

And lastly, I would like to mention that during the walking scene in this video, I was referencing the “Break in to Break Out” OP from the Persona 5 Anime. In that OP after the Akechi parts, you’ll suddenly see bare feet walking and that’s actually Akechi walking according to the producers
