#surprisingly not a lot for saito! i feel like ee deals a lot more in guilt and remorse which doesnt suit what we see of saito

[sinlizards]

which ee songs remind you of saito... please go into as much detail as possible cause i just got into the band and have no idea which songs to start on but i like saito he's silly

also i like your art the lighting and colors are very pretty and the compositions make my analysis brain go brr, i'm not really sure how to draw but your art is the kind that makes me want to learn how so i can make stuff like it

idk i'm not really sure how to end this but tldr your art makes the happy chemical and you have good music taste

ahh thank you so much!!! I am really happy you enjoy my work so much T _ T as far as the ee + saito I hope you know you are enabling me so so much here and i am thrilled about it

warning for this being way too fucking long and also aitsf spoilers under the cut !

I’ll say it up front that a lot of ee songs can be analyzed in many different directions so i tend to have multiple characters in mind for any given song! Obv I’ll just be sticking to saito but its worth mentioning if you have differing thoughts on these songs :] 

Hapsburg Lippp

the general tone of the song is VERY Saito, its violent and frantic in a way that really suits him. The song itself being all about nepotism and the corrupt nature of the wealthy ties in very well with how Saito used So’s status and money as a means of getting whatever he wanted. Also getting HUGE bonus points for the specific lines “If he's dead, he's not a deadbeat dad” and “I’m coming in cleaved in two” for lining up with So’s murder in the imaginary amv i got going in my head for it

Bad Friday

This song in my mind is like. Saito taunting Date throughout the course of the game starting from the initial body swap. I think the lyrics are self explanatory for why this is but the main bits are “you must have bust me out of my head/i’m wondering how did i get this blood all over me?” “shapeshifter coming for me” 

SUPERNORMAL

-Two reasons for supernormal as Saito! one is just directly the topic of the song itself: supernormal stimuli, a form of exaggerated stimulus which elicits a much stronger response than the natural stimulus which that response was evolved for. You can connect this to Saito’s desire for that intense dopamine/adrenaline rush that he is able to experience through violence

This also sorta ties into the second reason which is that this song is allll about excess and the aggressive & visceral imagery used to describe that really reminds me of how saito speaks especially

HONORABLE MENTIONS:

Crisis Over: For sure more of a Date song but it gets its own special place here cuz i did use the line “I declare myself a god and cut off my head so” as the main inspo for this piece

Awe/Arc: By virtue of this song being about a car crash involving the president it makes me think about the car crash in Resolution route with Saito in Renju’s body, but also the line “Shock and awe, baby, just takes all of my time” which is a reference to excessive and grand displays of violence makes me think of Saito as well 

Final Form: Another one i think fits Date more (and even then its more on the abstract level since final form has a much different meaning) but I REALLY love the lines "Your first body, last body" & "And I've never been able to divide us" as like a Date Saito conflict thing

hope this helps!! if you do need a place to start with ee in general the way i and most other people i know started is by listening to Get to Heaven first then branching off towards their other albums :]
