More on Meme's character (I would have written more but my last post was entirely done on a cellphone five minutes before class), Meme is what I'd call the "Otaku Girl", but not in the sense that she, like Shu, is a shut in who tries to escape her reality, but rather the type of otaku Girl who specifically caters to male otakus to encourage them to escape their reality. Like the man with the horse, Meme's job is to get people away from their boring world and get them enraptured by their own (See Me!Me!Me!). This was suppose to be Meme's own way of making her life interesting because now she will become wanted by thousands of others online or whatever, but you can tell from her unchanging expression that now she's little more then the sex doll we're all associating her with. It brings up another character whom some of you may not know, but I'm thinking of Rise from Persona 4: a cheery Idol Singer who chooses to retire from that life to try to strike out on her own. However she has self-image issues because she's wondering if people value Rise as a person or Rise as the Idol, which her Shadow exploits by depicting her a bikini clad whore. I'd think that Meme is going through a similar dilemma where she may look the part of a sex doll, but her heart simply isn't in it. The thing she wanted to do is now nothing more then a job, a boring one that's routine, as pretty as it looks in the light and glitter. The thing with Meme however is that she never [i]cared[/i]. It's a form of depression that many people over look, and attributes to a sin that everyone ignores: Sloth. Otherwise known as Apathy or even Despair. See, what Meme does is, as some would say, "Evil" because she's using her own body to tempt others into sin or whatever. You know, your general grandpa shtick to why you can't wear short-shorts. But Meme stopped caring about such things and does it anyways. All the more shocking when she sees Hana and Shu, knowing that she sent them on a path that will ruin their relationship without meaning too. And it's not that Meme wanted this to happen; it's just that she never thought about it until it was too late. Me!Me!Me! is a critique on otaku culture, or at least the most popular theories link it to that. I'm a GIRL is another critique, this one directed towards the girls who cater to otaku culture. However it's not venomous and showing that they're blood-sucking temptresses, or at least not intentionally. "Don't hate the player, hate the game" is one thing I would remember when trying to interpret this video. While I'd be easy to blame the girl for dressing and acting so provocatively, Escapism affects males and females, and the video I'm a GIRL exploits the feeling of how some girls feel unwanted by the world due to frankly Masculist values. Meme's first world, as trippy as it was, was fairly innocent. Lots of colors and lots of stuff going on in the background, good for a nice acid trip. But no one accepts that thus it is destroyed. Then the man with the horse arrives, allowing Meme to create that world once again, this time turning the world into her fantasies. But in doing so she tears away at her own values, trading her school uniform for lingerie, and soon tears apart the relationship of others because of what she does. These video's tend to have some sort of a "Take that" to otakus and those who only see it as "Porn" or just a sexy music video with trippy lyrics and stunning visuals. Maybe that's all they are. Cause all this is just theory and hypothesis, and the creators sure as hell ain't gunna tell us.
