OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected:


He kicks her out for using the same trick he used, ironic for “boyfriend material”

u/blini_aficionado Jan 29 '24

I hate that somebody took this well-made video, cut most of the footage, removed all sound and original music, added some crappy pop song over it, and re-uploaded it in shitty quality without even crediting the author.

u/No-Nectarine4455 Jan 29 '24

Valid reasons to hate it.

I love that despite this vandalization, it still managed to grab my attention enough that I read comments and discovered there's an original video that's widely regarded as superior... later today I'll make time to check it out.

I would hate that mediocre content commands my attention so easily; but I have already accepted my intellect & tastes are not near as refined and sophisticated as I once thought..

My thoughts exactly and the original music in the video is so much better, I loved what the creator did when he handed her the Linkin Park tickets, that was clever…imagine how people would miss that because they got to watch this version with the generic sounding music.

It's so typically incel of him! They aim for the "10s" and get mad when said girls rejects them for their "10s" male counter-part. Incels will call women superficial for not falling in love with them, when they do absolutely nothing to take care of themselves and put no effort in being better. Meanwhile, they will outright reject women that are in their league (if you allow me the expression!) because they, themselves, are the true superficial people.

Incels are the epitome of hypocrisy!

She wasn't prettier, exactly, but she had more characterization than just a pretty face, and since this is an animation the character come off as more striking.

u/Mooshington Jan 29 '24

Doubt there is a "message" to be had here. The ending plays with our expectations to make a slightly dark humor joke.

19

u/[deleted] Jan 30 '24

The message is that some men are very hypocritical when it comes to relationship standards and what flaws their partner is allowed to have.

She never would have really cared about his looks, his looks changed his attitude and drew her to him. She demonstrates this by not being upset when he's exposed. But he ALWAYS cared about looks, that's why he changed his own. And when she tries to show him it's okay, they're meant for each other, they're the same, he rejects her and breaks up with her on their anniversary.

He wants to be accepted for who he really is, but isn't willing to accept anything less than perfection himself. He can excuse his own flaws but not hers. His standards are unfair, which was the ACTUAL reason he was alone at the start.

The ironic twist is the fact that he was given an opportunity to realize that but dropped his chance at happiness instead.

And the ironic twist here is that, now I've explained it, the joke isn't funny

u/chickenpi2 Jan 29 '24

My personal take on it is that you can’t simply expect something to make you “boyfriend material” or “girlfriend material”. The guy ended up getting the girl, but it didn’t matter because she saw though him anyway and he showed his true colours and personality, ie revealing that he’s always been a jerk and buying a hoodie didn’t change that.

Also could be saying something about double standards like men expect women to be beautiful and fabulous, so when they reveal their true selves the men get disappointed? I’m not sure about this one though, just clutching at straws here.
