Captchas didn't work. Sticking to janitors while we try to think of something else.

crossposting this from /seccom/, a thread there inspired me to make words.

There's something heartwarming about Masada's meaning in Madotsuki's dream. Most people seem to agree that if he represents a person from her waking life that he is a piano instructor or something of that nature.

His spaceship is serene and peaceful, one of the few happy places in the game. I'd figure this means that Madotsuki has fond memories of her piano lessons and instructor.

It makes me warm and fuzzy inside to think of Madotsuki and Masada practicing a few old tunes together. It was a happy time in her miserable life.

Some people want to include Masada in the rape conspiracy, but the environment you find him (and his own nature) is very non-threatening. He is a little goofy at worst, but his ship is a sort of safe haven from the nightmares you find elsewhere in the dream world.

So many of the other humanoid characters seem like fleeting memories - the scarf girl is invisible and teleports out of reach, for example. But Masada will always be there. Everything is clean and quiet. You can play along if you'd like. But you don't need to. It's safe there.

Any ideas how Mars world relates to this? I think the space ship isn't completely happy, because it takes you to Mars, and there is Mars-san there.

Maybe Masada died. Or otherwise had something happen to him that was sufficiently terrible to ensure that Mado and Masada would never play piano together again.

Remember that when it takes you to Mars, it crashes, and Masada is freaking out. Something obviously went wrong.

I agree with your idea of what their relationship might have been like. In my mind, Masada was her kind, caring piano teacher that gave her a place she could feel safe at. With someone she knew she could trust.

I also believe Masada understands her on personal levels and they came together as two people badly hurt to lean on each other.

As for Mars-san, I believe he, plus the broken down train, represents something happening to Masada. Likely he was killed. The ship crashing symbolizing their world crumbling to disaster/sorrow.

That's my opinion anyway.

If you talk to Masada during the crash he is frantic. Afterwards he sounds defeated or depressed. Maybe mars-san and his isolation / sadness represents Masada moving away, being bedridden, etc. Music can be therapeutic and help people express themselves in a way that words cannot. Poor Masada and madotsuki…

Was Masada to Madotsuki, what Kaworu was to Shinji?
And considering what happened…

Bump for new insights. I haven't played Yume Nikki in a while but thinking about this stuff makes me feel homesick, even at home. I feel like they were really happy, at least for a little bit.
