Summary[]

Following Len saving Rin from Camui Gackpo, the latter kneels on the ground and remarks on Len having become a Vocaloid. Len, meanwhile, tries to think of a way out of his situation with only a pike fish to fight with. Camui, seeing Len had a heart, ranted about his past self and others having lost their own, only saved with drugs. He laughs at Len's naivety; Len, brushing him off, attacks and is frightened, throwing his pike at him.

Camui then realizes that Len was the dog from their past lives and tries to strike him again; hit instead by Len's elbow, he's is defeated and Len runs, taking Camui's wallet as his trophy. As he runs the boy reflects on Hatsune Miku calling him "the one who steals" from before; he resolves to protect Rin and move forward even if he doesn't fully know what's going on, also finding a red scarf inside the wallet. Later, Miku is shown salvaging Camui's body.

Lyrics[]

分けられた下等なもの
おまえもボカロになって
アレだけがはじかれた
伝えることも出来ない虫けら


格好付けに来たのはいいが
どうやら勝ち目はないなorz
色仕掛け通じるか?
隙を見てささっと逃げるしかない

武器はサンマしかない><
それはあとで食べたいorz

ただ、、、こいつに心が
あるのはどうしてなのだろう?
なぜこんな無駄なものにさ
君はこころ救われ 僕から逃げるんだよ?
それが君の望みなの?

全て壊してしまえばいいと
一緒に教わった人の頃
こころ無くす クスリに救われたのに

鏡に映る自分はきっと
ここよりも幸せなんだと
信じていたね?
僕は笑ってたwけけけw


とにかく独り言が怖いな
ここは一つ 俺のターンということなので
三沢式の肘で切るぜ!

ちょ、、おま、、
目が赤いぞ?怖いよ!
いい男が台無しですよ?
お腹すいてる?
サンマ食べる?生だけど
どぞー!

おまえ犬か、、これはまいったな
あの物語では僕は犬以下だもんな
ではここでも同じ結末、、


うぉー簡単には当たらない!
俺はバカだけど一つだけ、、
足元に注意!肘はおまけ!
さよなら終了☆

誰よりも速く走れる!
ついでに獲物をいただく
「ぬすむもの」、、俺のことかな?
でも俺は鏡音レン!

俺は夢を見飽きたから
今を必死に守るんだよ☆
何も考えず走るよ!
俺は主人公だから!

きえないきみの瞳だけ、、、
分かることはそれだけでも
俺のこころはアリのよう、、
そう俺は鏡音レン

すぐそこにあるものを追う!
そして強くなりたいんだ!
こんにゃくのようにピチピチ!
このスカーフはなんだろう、、、?

An inferior that was divided
You became a Vocaloid too
Only it was repelled by that
A worm who can't even report


It's great that you came to show off, but
It seems like I don't stand a chance orz
Might this lead to seduction?
I'll just have to escape when I see an opening

My weapon's just a mackerel pike><
I want to eat it after this orz

But,,, this one has a heart
Why is that, I wonder?
Why have such a futile thing?
To save your heart, will you escape from me?
Is that what you want?

We should completely destroy everything
That's what we were taught, back when we were human
We lost our hearts, while we were saved by drugs

The me reflected in the mirror is surely
More happy than the one here
You believed that?
I was laughing lol heheheh lol


Your monologue is creepy, at any rate
As this would seem to be my one turn
I'll cut you with a Misawa style elbow!

What the,,
Your eyes're red? That's scary!
Aren't you ruining your handsome looks?
Are you hungry?
Wanna eat my pike? It's raw but
Here you gooo!

You're the dog?,, I give up
In that story, I was less than a dog
So even here will have the same conclusion,,


Woah– You won't hit me that easily!
I'm an idiot, but I got one thing,,
Watch your step! My elbow's a freebie!
A closing farewell☆

I can run faster than anyone!
I'll accept a trophy while I'm at it
"The one who steals",, is that me?
But I'm Kagamine Len!

I've grown tired of dreaming
So I'll desperately protect the now☆
I'll run without thinking!
Because I'm the protagonist!

Only your eyes that don't vanish,,,
Even though they're all I know
My heart is like Ali,,
Yes, I am Kagamine Len

Soon I'll chase after what's there!
And then I want to become strong!
My heart's racing like konnyaku!
What's this scarf,,,?

Illustration Analysis[]

The first illustration shows Camui Gackpo on his knees, holding the arm kicked by Len from Goodbye to the Dream☆ as he recovers. Len can be seen standing over him. Looking carefully, Camui's eyes can be seen as a dull red, although they are not yet visible to Len. In the next illustration Len is shown wearing the Santa suit, likely an intentional reference on his part to Rin's song in Assassin!. It's seen that he's holding a bag, although it's unknown what's in it; it is possible that, as a pike was his only weapon, that was all that was in the bag. Additionally, on Len's skin are small marks, possibly sweatdrops to show his unease.

The next illustration shows Camui having stood up, now holding a sword. It's unknown where he pulled the sword from, although it is possible he had it concealed in his coat. After this is an illustration of the pike on the snow, which may have been lain there as an offering to Camui or fallen as a result of Len throwing it at him. For brief second, Len is then shown rushing forward and striking Camui with his elbow; this appears to be his finishing blow, as Camui looks to have been already off balance by the shot.

The next shot is of Len running with a wallet in his hands, Camui's after he decides to take a trophy for his efforts. His direction is the same as Rin's in Goodbye to the Dream, indicating he is running back to the same place as her; this is confirmed by Who's the Liar?, where he's also back in their dorm room. As no scarf is shown in the picture, it can be assumed Len found Camui's red scarf in the wallet itself. The final image is of Camui lying on the ground, his wig knocked off as it will be for the rest of the series. Beside him is a shot of Miku's high heels and the edge of her long teal hair. It's also shown that it's begun to snow; this snow will pick up into a snowstorm over the next several songs.

Sound Effect Analysis[]

Near the end of the video, before the illustration of Miku by Camui, the sound of footsteps can be heard. This is likely the sound of Miku's boot heels crunching through the new layer of snow.

Trivia[]

Notes[]

  • The sign next to the title is a mathematical sign meaning "greater than" or "lesser than"; read with the title, it reads "The other side of the mirror is more than [unspecified]", referencing Camui's quote in the song.
  • Ali refers to Muhammad Ali, a famous boxer.
  • When asked why Len's text turned briefly from yellow to green, Numtack05 explained it was a reference to the pro-wrestler Mitsuharu Misawa, whose image color is green.[1]

Curiosities[]

  • Camui Gackpo again uses the dehumanizing "it" to refer to someone as done in We Met Again, eh?☆; it is unclear who he is referring to, although it is possibly Ronald, who was unable to face off with Rin now that she was a Vocaloid and may have been similarly repelled by Len being one.
  • Following Camui's "creepy monologue", Len's text briefly turned a paler yellow than usual; it's possible this was meant to represent his fear.
