The contemporary crisis that Arthur Lounsbery felt in Fuuta's first trial song 'Jihen Joutou’ ――『MILGRAM -ミルグラム-』 Music Interview|’Jihen Jotou’
Tumblr media
════ ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ •✦• ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ ════
Translator Notes:
Oh boy, this is a long one, I am suffering. Let’s tackle the phrase “contemporary crisis.” 
Contemporary Crisis refers to a sense of crisis or danger that is relevant to modern times or contemporary society. It suggests that the crisis being discussed is not just a historical or abstract issue, but something that is pressing and urgent in the present. In the context of the MILGRAM music interview, it implies that the song "Jihen Joutou" captures some of the concerns and anxieties that people may feel in the current social and political climate.
Not only that, let’s go with the song name ‘Jihen Jotou.’ Jihen Jotou doesn’t have an English equivalent and the answers forward in the interview require so much context about the title. The words "jihen" (事変) can be translated as "incident" or "crisis." While "joutou" (上等) can be translated as "first-class" or "top-notch." So a possible interpretation of the title could be "First-class incident", "Top-notch crisis." or “Catastrophe.”
But "joutou" (上等) can also be translated as “Bring it On!” However, it’s rare for it to have this context. If we replace Jotou with this in mind, an alternative title would be "Incite the Incident."
BUT that’s not as catchy as Bring it On and doesn’t have enough allusions to fire. So here are some alternative titles that would’ve worked as well!
Spark the Frenzy / Spark the Crisis (Chuunibyou route) Fuel the Frenzy Ignite the Catastrophe (Chuunibyou route)
In the end, they went with “Bring it On!” It’s not a bad alternative title, but I feel that a lot of context was removed because of it.
════ ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ •✦• ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ ════
DECO*27, a leading creator among Vocaloid artists, and Takuya Yamanaka, known for his style of exploring human psychology, have launched a collaborative music video project called "MILGRAM - ミルグラム -". The project features a joint original story and production, and the music video - which is crucial to uncovering the prisoners' crimes - has now been released.
CONTEMPORARY FEELING EXPRESSED IN THE LYRICS
════ ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ •✦• ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ ════
―― Fuuta's first official music release titled, 'Jihen Joutou' has finally been made public. Could you share your initial thoughts or impressions about the song's title?"
Fuuta’s Actor: Arthur Lounsbery (Arthur hereafter): If an incident really happened, wouldn't it be a huge deal? Yet the phrase 'Jihen Joutou' is a powerful expression, isn't it? (laughs) Fuuta himself is a timid person, so how can he say that an incident is first-class...? I wondered what that could possibly mean.
Tumblr media
―― Could you share any specific lyrics from the song that resonated with you given that the song carries a powerful message? Were there any particular lines that stood out or left a strong impression on you?
Arthur: I was also struggling with how to sing it, but phrases like "Words leave bruises like a whip," "Hunt down the liars," and "Justice is at your fingertips." are very contemporary. They make you think about a lot of things and the lyrics are impressive and memorable.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
IT'S LIKE HE'S SAYING THIS TO FUUTA HIMSELF
════ ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ •✦• ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ ════
―― Do you have any specific points or aspects that you focused on or paid particular attention to when singing?
Arthur: Each song has a strong message with their sins hidden in the lyrics. While the quality of the singing is important, I focused on conveying Fuuta's emotions as much as possible.
As for what I was particular about, there's a shout in the last chorus. I wanted the phrase after the shout to feel like it was directed towards Fuuta himself. So if anyone who listens to the entire song can pick up on something about Fuuta as a person, I would be happy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
――When you first saw the lyrics or after finishing singing, did your impression of the character Fuuta change?
Arthur: There wasn't a significant change in my impression, but I felt this indescribable feeling that can’t be put into words. Fuuta is a very contemporary character, and anyone could be him or already is him. Perhaps my impression of Fuuta may have shifted, as I felt a sense of familiarity with him - for better or for worse.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
――Despite the fact that the outcome of MILGRAM -ミルグラム- is influenced by viewer votes, can you share your enthusiasm for the next song?
Arthur: Although the number of recordings for MILGRAM’s content itself is still small, I have a strong attachment to Fuuta because of his strong individuality and message. He is a very difficult character for me, “I hate him but I love him,” so I am really happy to be able to sing his heart's cry again in the next season.
What is MILGRAM...? There are still many things I don't know. I want to continue to explore and/or discuss it together with everyone (the fans) and to have fun! Please look forward to it in the future!
――Thank you very much.

I know most of our focus goes (rightfully) to the trial songs, but I genuinely believe Baptism of Fire is equally a masterpiece of meaningful writing and intense vocal acting
Incoming tag rant because I need to yell about this, feel free to yell back
#milgram#fuuta kajiyama#like the other vds have good writing about the character and whatever social issue their crime focuses on#but this one is very pointedly about YOU#its about the audience. its about the milgram project. its about self reflection. its about self-appointed roles. its about you#even if you didnt vote t1 or anything the whole things is calling on you to reflect on your own judgements of others#how you treat people who come off rougher. how you treat people who have made a (bad but) common mistake.#do you also find entertainment in seeing people dragged down and suffering because it would 'serve them right?'#but es always remains in control of the situation. the drama doesnt end with 'and fuuta was right - you guys suck!'#its clarified that situations are different and have nuance. we are reminded to look at things with nuance.#then we are smoothly re-immersed in the story#and then!! the acting itself!!!#arthur lounsbery put his whole fussy into that performance (<- fuuta pussy) and i am in his debt every day for it#in both his vds hes just super expressive and fun to listen to#i dont understand japanese but he packs so much interesting intonation and emotion into every word -- im obsessed listening to him#he nails all the subtle emotions fuuta has: the pouts and outrage as well as underlying fear grief insecurity and immaturity#and then baptism of fire hes just... Wailing#like mahiru has her innocent and pathetic cries of pain in her sweet voice that works for her character but fuutas pain feels much more raw#the way hes practically sobbing at the end -- his voice cracking and screeching throughout -- the whimper of pain#its so unbearably intense!! it hurts!! and its supposed to!! but hes just so raw with it#and dont even get me started on his pained hysteric laughter omg....#its just. a masterpiece.#i always appreciate the vds but i dont think ive enjoyed/relistened to one as much as this one#okay WAIT im back to add one more thing because im obsessed with ths idea of intentions#specifically in milgram i think the intention behind the murders are very important to consider#so i love love love the huge focus on 'i didnt expect/mean for this to happen'#plus as a general theme in fiction i think its sooo juicy when good intentions get fucked up#so i loved the repetition of that#fuuta is such a special case because he genuinely had no desire or expectation for his victim to die#(maybe kazui too? but he doesn't say so in his vd like fuuta does)

Fuuta T1 Cover - Mozaik Role
This song's a bit more odd than some others, but I think it fits Fuuta quite well! Let's see what the connection is, though obviously this is all just my opinion and my view.
CW Online harassment, harmful relationships, sex
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mozaik Role can be read in a few different ways, but the interpretation I'm going with is that it speaks of a romantic relationship between two people which is beginning to break down, as they don't feel satisfied with it. The main reason why is that they feel the connection doesn't go beyond sexual attraction, it's superficial.
Lack of sympathy and superficial sex seem to perfectly describe the unbreakable bond between you and me Saying things like, "Either way, I still love you..." (lol) [...]
In the end, I got tired of you Since I don't know if it's love or lust, what should I call this relationship I'm about to end?
(Translation)
(Note: Purely sexual relationships can still be meaningful and aren't inherently inferior to romantic relationships. But sexual attraction isn't enough to hold up a healthy romantic relationship, the same way romantic attraction isn't enough to hold up a healthy sexual relationship)
Staying together and pretending to be in love only hurts them.
Certain words pierced through you I described the fluid flowing from your wound as "love" [...]
Wouldn't it be better to say you used to love me? We're intertwined, so nobody can touch us Isn't this fate, too? It's just a certain world of love that disappears [...]
Can we say we used to love each other? We were hanging on and struggling Wouldn't it be better if you just killed me, since I hate you?
In fact, in the video, Gumi regains her colors when the other person disappears.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That's the idea. I believe the 'mosaic' in the title refers to a scattered and broken up relationship.
So what's the connection to Fuuta? Well, I believe he's essentially talking to his old 'friends' here. The idea is that their connection is completely superficial, though the 'sex' would refer to as he puts it:
(T1) Q1: What is a friend?
F: Folks you can get hyped over the same thing with.
Basically, their relationship doesn't go further than 'those guys I talk to online to cancel people together and hang out to have fun'. It's all superficial, held together by the shared enjoyment of playing videogames and going on online witch hunts-
(Oh my God that's why Killcheroy is represented by a witch it's because it's a witch hunt-)
Not only that, but they're all bad influences on each other, which is obvious given what their 'friendship' led to. That's why it'd be best if they leave each other behind, if they said they used to 'love' each other. Not to mention that Fuuta's friends do abandon him after Killcheroy dies.
Tumblr media
So yeah, a completely superficial relationship. Again, other readings exist, but in my opinion this is the one that best fits Fuuta.
Well that was pretty short. Hope it made sense! Take care!
