Author's Note:
─ Yesssss, another post not long after the previous one. I'm too sleep-deprived now, any error, mistakes, or inconsistency (you name it) would probably be edited after I have enough sleep. goodnight!!
─ Today's fic: OM! MC still tries to blend in to Darkwick without anyone noticing, but it seems very hard, and no one wants to really point it out directly to her, which makes her more agitated in fear and anxiety. And what's worse than that? Leo

Power and Control in The Freak Circus + Columbina Theorization
This post is personal analysis of the overarching theme of power/control within the story of TFC (sorry, y'all, I had Columbina brainworms and needed to get this typed out since a lot of it has to do with my queen... I apologize if it's a little all over the place), as well as some slight theorization regarding the history of the characters and Columbina's death.
TW: Discussion and mention of SA, human trafficking, discrimination, objectification, dehumanization, and femicide. Please do not read if these topics upset you!
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
So, we see from the very first day of the game that the monsters had their autonomy stripped from them by humans, specifically the human man (whom I will refer to as "ring leader"), who takes advantage of their poor circumstances and offers them a place at his circus in exchange for food. The ring leader knew he had some innate power over the monsters, and he used this power to potentially coerce the monsters into working for him, resulting in the control he had over the cast.
At the circus, the monsters are treated incredibly poorly. They were kept in cages, and their food rations – which were the only thing the ring leader had promised them when he asked them to join his circus – were made smaller and smaller, resulting in them growing too weak to fight back. They were promised they would receive something as payment for their service (i.e., food), and then that was taken away from them (in real life, human trafficking is defined by the use of force, fraud, and/or coercion; in this case, what the ring leader did to the monsters would be fraud, and it would eventually become force).
Since we now have three different versions of Columbina's death, as of December 2025, I will be analyzing each scene one by one to piece together what we already have regarding lore, starting with Harlequin's puppet show.
⋆﹥━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━﹤⋆
Harlequin's Tent:
We are shown by Harlequin during his performance on Day 1 that the monsters were not able to flee from or leave the circus because they were all physically too weak and malnourished to do so (they were trapped, and because of that, they no longer had control over their own lives/wellbeing/fate). However, they eventually regain their freedom by killing, and most likely eating, the ring leader who had been responsible for their imprisonment and unjust treatment.
TAG, YOU'RE IT (The Freak Circus)
In the sunset glow, we wish you a happy birthday!
On May 26, 2026 — happy birthday to our Harlequin!!! Baby! All of us, both inside and outside the screen, wish you happiness and joy, now and forever!!!
(I had originally envisioned a birthday illustration for H — a night raid, secretly leaving gifts, or surprising him with a sudden visit. But after much thought, I decided instead to let this child — who always chooses to carry everything alone — be gently led by family to celebrate his very first birthday.)
Self-insert YN note!
Can the TDB Seiyuus sing? final part

This is the last part!
I thought of including the staff members + MC too but maybe I'll leave them for another separate post if I feel like it... for now please take a look at the Mortkranken+ Dionysia seiyuus!!
this part took me about +5 hours of extensive research that unfortunately came out empty in most cases, but it was also the one I enjoyed the most because I can finally introduce you guys to my beloved Koseki 💜 so I hope you enjoy this!

This is an interpretation I have of Shion. So to be taken with a grain of salt, because I am not an expert in human behavior. Also take into account, my explanations go in all directions haha.
─ ⊹ ⊱꒰☆꒱⊰ ⊹ ─
Ok, so in Shion’s general description, he is described as a character who « inspires » fear and who is rather proud of it. -Or more precisely who does not care too much about the look of others on his actions.
However, he gives me the impression of a character who has lived through loneliness and isolation - and I’m not talking about the punishment by Dw - and that in fact now he is aware of it and is afraid of it.
I may be wrong, but all this infantilization around him, in my eyes, results from the fact that he has a need to be surrounded but does not know how to express it. As a result, he will pretend to hate something, because behind if he admits to love, there is a risk of loss. And the loss would be more than a simple betrayal because it is something that directly impacts his emotions and that he does not have free will on it.
Just as he explains that he considers Haru as a trade for - I imagine - having left dio, but behind during his interaction with Haru - in the campus stories - he behaves rather correctly with him. Because despite everything he says, he remains fundamentally attached to Haru, as a member of the family he created for himself.
He can therefore say something, but feels the opposite effect.
If we take his relationship with Haru as an example, it is quite obvious that Shion did not mourn him. As much in the campus story as in the main story. He talks about Haru as his nemesis, but basically, he seeks to get the latter’s attention. Or at least that’s the effect I feel. So he tells himself that if Haru is no longer in his life, it is necessarily betrayal. But he can’t get over the fact that he was abandoned.
This leaves us with an obvious: if he is so inclined to promote constant loyalty and he can’t make a cross on the passive when it comes to social ties, he must have lived one or more elements that are related to abandonment.
Now as we can see, Shion seems to have « affinities » with a certain type of people. Haru, obviously. Mio, and in the descriptive sheet of his character, MC.
Why MC? Personally I don’t think he sees her as a replacement for Haru, or another person - although it seems to me that something similar is mentioned - but I think MC fit perfectly with the type of person he initially likes.
Haru and Mio are both hard workers, empathetic, easy to approach, and very attentive. Who else is like that? Yes, MC.
And I think that if he saw her qualities in her, he immediately wanted her to join this circle he calls family.
Regarding his obsession with family ties, it’s the same. First like every non-human ghoul (Ed, Towa, Lyca..) Shion seems to have a very specific vision of affection. The or for example Towa is obsessed with the idea of a love that seems romantic to me, Ed abhors love... Shion seems to think that love happens primarily through a bond. A bond that would not be romantic, but a family bond. Because the family is always supposed to be there. Your family is supposed to support you and be present in good and bad times.
And if he may not have known this from birth, he therefore decided to create his own circle, people who would love him and who would support him in all circumstances.
His family.
But despite that, when I imagine Shion, I mainly imagine a character who is alone, and who dreams of being accepted. I wouldn’t really know how to explain it to myself because in TKDB it’s the first one that makes me feel that way, but I find that it really gives off this aspect of « I want to be loved » even if it shows nothing for.
I imagine him watching his show which surely showed him what family love was, and saying to himself "I want that, me too.”
Just as I find that there is a certain candor in him. His delirium with his obsession to do activities in the snow (affinity sentences), his innocuous questions to Mio to learn to understand things better... even his interactions with Elias. All this screams that he’s not just a horrible guy. He is a character who is really interesting to understand in his way of interpreting affect.
────۶ৎ────
In short, it was a lot of yapping for not much but I needed to express that haha.
