My ‘Pink Season - The Prophecy’ Theory - Pink Guy’s Origin Story
I’m gonna put this under a read more because it’s quite long. Please read and tell me what you think.
The video begins and we see Pink Guy alone, in a beautiful, natural world. He is happy and innocent and pure - the purity being reflected in the world’s realm number - 000. I believe this is the beginning of Pink Guy, his birth, or creation in his home world. But the peace is not held for long. He lies down into the grass and slips into a trance.
At first he keeps his happiness and optimism. He is still in control. He finds himself in a strange place, a Fringe Ecosystem. At first he enjoys himself here, sitting on the edge of a cliff. The camera shots through the trees behind Pink Guy’s back give us the impression that he is being watched. Pink Guy feels this too and begins to feel uneasy. He realises that he is lost and confused in a new world. He starts to panic. As he panics, he looses control and falls into a new wold.
Hell. The opposite of the pure world he started in: Realm - 000 DARKNESS. Everything is familiar but different, dark, evil. He meets the first being he has encountered - a faceless black demon. He feels pain for the first time. It burns him deep inside. He is falling. Images of pain and suffering are shown. He lands in a dark cavern with only his pink flare for light. He faces off against the demon but screams when it speaks to him. ‘This is my prophecy’ says the demon. ‘This is your future’.
The mood and scene changes. SINNERS. Everything in this new place is unnatural, toxic, chemical, sin. Earth - the cesspit of lust. The evil shows him what he could be with it’s help. It tries to bribe him by creating a vision of Pink Thug. Pink Thug is the opposite of the Pink Guy we saw at the start. He is not innocent, he is powered by lust for women and jewelry. He is not above killing for personal gain. His Pink, his soul, has faded to an almost white colour.
Pink Guy revolts against this vision and uses the power of his soul to transport himself and the demon to a brighter, more natural world. Here he faces off again against the evil. He uses his power to conjure a sword. He slays the demon and is victorious. In the vision of earth the demon created, Pink Thug is revealed to be the demon Pink Guy was fighting. Pink Thug is overcome with his own lust and sin. He faints into a bathtub (it’s worth noting this is the same bathtub Pink Guy died in in Teryaki God). Pink Guy is sucked into the prophecy and sucked into the body of Pink Thug (shown by the pink fluid). Their bodies merge into grotesque version of both of them (Pink Mask). This is the creature Pink Guy will become if he tries too late to renounce the evil. He steps out of the bathroom and is killed by one of his friends. Pink Guy knows that this sin fueled existence the demon was trying to sell to him would have ended up killing him.
But there is still evil inside him from absorbing Pink Thug. He must purge it out so the demons won’t win and he won’t turn into Pink Mask, who still dies.
The scene changes to Pink Guy serenely standing on stage. He begins to sing STFU. He is back in control of himself. STFU is directed towards the evil black faceless demon. He is telling it that he is now in control of his destiny and he won’t give in to lust and sin and die.
REINCARNATION. We see pink fluid dripping onto a black morph. This is Pink Guy reclaiming his soul and destiny from the evil, the aforementioned purging of sin. He is reincarnated (after his death as Pink Mask), using his power to become Pink Guy 2. We see the life Pink Guy wants to have, playing in nature, smelling flowers and swinging on swings.
But something happens when Pink Guy sings the line ‘your daughter has to see you getting lowered in your grave’. He realises the horrible things he is saying and he suddenly sees that the evil he now has inside him will never go away. He will have to fight it for the rest of his life to ensure the prophecy - and his sin fueled death - does not occur.
This scares him and his panic reduces him to his base desires. He comfort eats dumplings to escape the reality of his corruption. He becomes more and more frantic, when suddenly he becomes aware that he is sitting in front of a camera steup.
He looks across the table to see a strange, faceless version of himself sitting in a director’s chair. Is this strange pink creature what was watching him through the trees in the fringe ecosystem? Is this the mastermind of his entire life? The bringer of the initial trance which swept him away from his simple, innocent life? Is this God?
Pink Guy wonders if he ever had control of his destiny, if he can ever prevent the demon’s prophecy, or if everything has always been controlled by this shadowy, mysterious director behind the camera. He is too emotionally exhausted to react, and the camera pans away.
I believe this video shows Pink Guy’s origin. He lived a peaceful life in realm 000, before he was pulled into a trance, transported to another realm, met a demon, was sent to hell, was shown a prophecy of the sin-fueled maniac he could become, used his power to fight the demon, killed the demon, was sucked into the prophecy, merged with his evil possible future self, was killed, reincarnated himself to keep his soul pure, took a hold of his own destiny, realised he had been corrupted and would never be pure again, freaked out, ate dumplings, and realised that he may have never had control of his own destiny in the first place.
Also then Pink Guy used these memories as inspiration while writing Pink Season.
