Just finished reading Dance Dance Dance. Hmm.

-Usually when the protag thinks about Mei, he says 'cuck-koo' and something about her 'shoveling sensual snow'.

-The protagonist saw six skeletons in Honolulu. They belonged to The Rat, Kiki, Mei, Gotanda, Dick North (one-armed skeleton), and the sixth one maybe belonged to the Sheep Man.

-The Maserati seems important to Gotanda's character. It's connected with death and despair...

That's all I can think of :/

That second light of the 'a moth flew in...' page now says "Frankenstein now, Yuki's bird." The only time in Dance Dance Dance that Yuki and birds come together is when the protagonist is trying to explain sex drive to her. Haha.

Hey, did you guys know that the last light on the page led to a different site? The username and password were Mark and Twain. But it is not there anymore. Has anyone been there?

EDIT: "The film ends in London, where Frankenstein now
works under the pseudonym Dr. Franck." That is from the Revenge of Frankenstein. That might be of use. Dr. Franck could be the username or it could be Prometheus. Who knows?

EDIT: Hey, I got a question. I was just browsing through the rest of this thread. It never says how anyone got the Yuki and Gotanda thing for the username and password. Anyone wanna fill me in on that?

Hey, I'm new to the forum. As this is my first post you can guess why I joined. Anyways, back to my point. Has anyone tried to find out the meaning of the third block of words from timeflows.htm? While it is true everyone is working on Frankenstein Now, I just thought I'd get this in here as I've read no mention of it thus far. With some googling I was able to find the translation, it being one of the only surviving parts of an old Dutch text, also being very old Dutch dialect.
What was:
hebban olla vogala nestas hagunnan
hinase hi(c) (e)nda thu
uu(at) unbida(n) (uu)e nu

translated into english is:

"All the birds have started their nests
except me and you.
What are we waiting for now?"

Considering that recent "Yuki's Bird" change maybe it has more revelance?

I think that's the one he's referring to with 'The Rat', who dies in WSC. The narrator himself is confused right 'til the end of the novel about who the sixth one could have been.

Personally, I think it's the narrator himself, except that he avoids fate by "reconnecting himself". When he first goes into the 'attic space,' he sees six skeletons. However, he only describes five of them [Spoilers here!]













(one in bed [Dick North], one at the table [Kiki], two on the couch [Gotanda & Mei], and one watching TV [The Rat]). Like the narrator himself, the sixth skeleton goes nameless, faceless (no pun intended), and descriptionless. It's not even mentioned where #6 is in the room. Just passing through, perhaps?
