Confusing example of songs with sexually explicit lyrics

I feel that Mozaik Role isn’t a good example of a DECO*27 song with sexually explicit themes. The only lines that seem sexual are “思いやりの欠如と形だけの交尾は” and “愛か欲か分からず放つことは何としようか”. Even then, the song as a whole does not seem to be about sexual love, instead being about self-hatred and self-love. In the 2011 Niconico Daikaigi interview, DECO*27 states “たとえばモザイクロールでは、「みんなが苦しいところをえぐってやろう」と”. Also, in the シンシン二元論 artbook, akka says that the song‘s PV is about a girl’s emotions clashing before they accept each other. The manga adaptation also revolves around a girl learning to accept herself despite her flaws.

I think using Rabbit Hole as an example would be more easily understood. Rubbishbin158 (talk) 15:36, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The opinion that "Mozaik Role" is a song about sexuality is taken from ref 98. It interprets "before and after puberty" as a conflict between separate selves.

However, I agree with the idea of using "Rabbit Hole", but I could not find sources that mentions the lyrics, so I'm reserving it at this stage. Ycfjgt (talk) 14:16, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that opinion goes against DECO*27’s and akka’s interview at the end of the second Mozaik Role manga volume. akka stated that the manga follows their vision of the song’s meaning, apart from the addition of supernatural elements. The manga is about a girl who blames herself for her recent breakup, and wishes to rid herself of her flaws that caused it. As akka is one of the original creators of Mozaik Role, I feel that their view of the song should also be considered.

Apart from that, I think using Mozaik Role as an example of songs with sexually explicit themes could cause confusion, considering there is some debate about whether the song is about sexual love or not. It is relatively unclear, so it might be better to not mention Mozaik Role. Rubbishbin158 (talk) 17:26, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understood. There are often many different interpretations of Vocaloid songs, but if it's either the story of the people involved or the opinion of a single music critic, it's obvious which one to trust.

How about substituting "Animal" until we can find a source for "Rabbit Hole"? The source can be found here [1] Ycfjgt (talk) 12:48, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Animal, most interpretations agree that it has sexual themes as the lyrics are relatively clear in portraying this. Thank you for understanding my points. Rubbishbin158 (talk) 15:06, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Changed. Ycfjgt (talk) 16:10, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
