Hi all, I'm the artist of the painting used for this video. (@Naisk47) As of writing this comment, I'm currently going through a lot of anxiety (especially with the current advancement in AI technology) and doubt on myself and my own ability to make art, but looking back at your comments discussing the painting, it really encourage me to continue my path. I wanted to say thank you so much for the comments and discussions on this piece :) For years I have been reading your comment on who the protector is and the deep meaning behind this, but the truth is, there's no deep meaning behind it, it is what you see it is. When I painted this, it was just a practice painting I didn't put much thought in, I paint what was already in my mind. The only deep meaning behind this to me is that art is open for interpretation, you're free to form your own opinions on it.

Samurai: I fear no man!... but that...THING? Innocent looking girl: *Smiles* Samurai: It scares me...

"If you've lost the fight, then let's win the war"

I've played Undertale: Answer to the picture? Be afraid of the girl... Be very afraid...

💖

Everytime I think about this it's just me and my best friend protecting each other. I protect her mentally While she protects my physically

*Me having all rejects in my friend group* rejects: why me:*plays this song* Rejects: Thank you

Plot twist its the little girl protecting the samurai

Everyone fighting over who is being protected and protecting. My answer: Little girl = Protector. Samurai = Enemy. Us = Being protected. My reasoning: little girls with weapons are more threatening than trained warriors. Cause they won't give up.

Lyrics You don't have to be alone all by yourself Tired of doing things just to save your mental health You made a wish and then you lost it down the wishing well But when you're with me There's no need to be So tell me is there somewhere else that you wanna go? Cause you've been running round in circles, stuck in slow-mo I've got that feeling that you really wanna hit the door If you've lost the fight Then let's win the war When you're tired of hiding And you've gotta run, hop right in Sit shotgun, I'm driving I'll be your protector Who's gonna be there when Everything is tumbling down? Who's gonna be there when You fall to keep you off of the ground? I'll be your shelter They'll never get ya So stay with me and I'll be your protector No it ain't easy to survive up in these city streets Lookin' for someone to help you when you scrape your knees Takin' too many punches, now it's getting hard to breathe I'll be your reason so you can believe Are you waiting for someone? Just hold on, here I come To fix when you're undone Now tell me when you're tired of hiding And you gotta run, hop right in Sit shotgun, I'm driving I'll be your protector Who's gonna be there when Everything is tumbling down? Who's gonna be there when You fall to keep you off of the ground? I'll be your shelter They'll never get ya So stay with me and I'll be your protector I'll be your protector So life is a tightrope, and it's hard to maintain Let me hold your umbrella, and never feel the rain You're standing on the edge now, stay close I'm going twelve rounds, ready for another dose Your momma said "Never run from the devil" Steel chin, and a fist made of metal Look at my face, serious as a heart attack Comin' in your corner, shades on, dressed in black Who's gonna be there when Everything is tumbling down? Who's gonna be there when You fall to pick you up off the ground? I'll be your shelter They'll never get ya So stay with me and I'll be your protector Who's gonna be there when Everything is tumbling down? Who's gonna be there when You fall to keep you off of the ground? I'll be your shelter They'll never get ya So stay with me and I'll be your protector Who's gonna be there Who's gonna be there To pick you off of the ground I'll be your shelter They'll never get ya So stay with me and I'll be your protector

I don't understand.... those who say "Awesome" and "Love this" when the video came out 1 min ago... its like they have already seen it... when they haven't...

I love this; I'm a therapist, mentally ill and traumatized myself, and I love my work with clients but so often I'm there after the damage is already done. Working with teenagers is actually my favorite because even though I can't punch their parents and adopt them (even though I wish I could) I can charm their parents and advocate for them both with parents and with school. I needed a protector when I was little and I'm still healing from not having one and the subtle trauma of not being able to protect other kids; so this hard commitment with no reservations and no mercy to the ones who did wrong feels exactly like when I get to protect my teen clients. I still have to fully master thinking before reacting, but that in itself is powerful and I've been making great progress as a professional there; after all, if I'm not civil and professional despite seething with absolute hatred, I won't be able to keep being a protector. So sometimes being a protector is standing resolute against the worst of it with an axe of words and then being the shelter for them to go to when what I couldn't hold back gets them. We'll win the war, and that's what matters.

Pov : The girl is the only one who brave enough to fight while she is protecting her three younger siblings behind.

To be completely honest I love this song it makes me think of things I normally wouldn’t, for example, “would I be willing to fight to the death against something or someone I know I cannot win against?” And the answer is yes, I would gladly die if it meant I could protect the person I love/care about, like family. (Even though they don’t see me as a “protector” they see me as the one needing protecting witch hurts but it’s fine)

I want to sing this to my friend who is going through depression

The first chorus immediately gives me chills, I love it!

I will always protect the one I love ♡

I wish this was a game. Looks like fun

Who is the *Protector* in the picture? The small girl with the firefighter axe or The Samurai with his sword? Wait! Why are they in the canalisation?

The axe in the tunnel is actually a pretty good matchup, that katana's swing arc is kinda bit too large like even if the samurai does that one method of alley fighting it's still gonna be a bitch to maneuver, also because of his height, that low ceiling is gonna make things awkward and then the floor is not level. as for the girl, she got a short weapon with a much smaller arc and she doesn't have the tunnel ceiling making her crouch. my money is on the girl as long as she holds her ground.

I tried to get my cat to listen to this and she tried to get away from the song... I put the earbud near her ear at a low enough volume so we could listen to this together... Edit: She just fell asleep after I wrote this comment...

you never disappoint when it comes to good music.

I wish I had someone like that when I was at my lowest... And now too...

*insert Record_scratch_sound.mp4 here* "Woah woah woah, you see dat girl over there, with the red hoodie? Looks like she's in a pickel... Well, believe it or not, that's actually me! I bet you're wondering how i got into this predicament? Well let me tell you..."

Reminds me of mah friends, They protec, and usually one of them attac.

who is reading while listening to the song

Now everyone go give citys wolf the love thay need and deserve!

This helped me when I was having a panic attack on a boat ( I don't know how to swim, it was my first boat ride and they didn't let us wear life vests unless it was an emergency) and listening to this song calmed me down

you are your own protector always have been, always will be.

Omg I love this song! I am so happy that i found a nightcore version of it!

*moment of silence for those who couldnt find this song*

I have to stop listening to songs this good without access to a drawing tablet, I can't handle listening to it without instantly going into art withdrawal and hyperfocusing on the idea of producing an AMV of all my current anime projects set to it

0:00-3:01 Just Lovely

Haven't been listening to nightcore lately but this is good.

I just read "Protector" as "Predator" lmao

And if you don't have a protector, I'll be there for you.... Hit up a like and let's be a protector for someone in need to survive this harsh world.

I'm fortunate to have someone in my life that catches me when I fall and keeps me from tumbling down a dark hole, she is my protector that fights by my side ❤

Omg, is nice :D

when you see a nightcore song, then goes to another nightcore of the same song and now even nightcore looks slow to you i cant imagine the original xD

I love this song! and in nightcore you made it even better great job Galaxy 😘💕💕

😍Protector!

Woo City Wolf

That lil girl is stronk, more than I will ever be.

One of my favorite songs, love it!

I got DID diagnosed last year, and a LOT of songs I have seen have change their meaning. It just shows, it depends a lot on who is listening 🤔

Hint: This is the best part of the song ;3 0:01 - 3:00

OK, everyone give in. Who thought the samurai looks hot? YES, I SEE YOU OUT THERE.

Another to add to the playlist thanks❣️❣️

I love this💕 but my mother passed my computer and my music was loud, let’s just say she stopped looked at me and asked “What the hell is that?” I looked at her dead in the eye and said “Beauty”

Oh myyy, such a good Song! ☺️🥰

Omg words can not explain how much I love I love this and like this gets me ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Love this song. I know it word for word

So this is the person who drives the Tesla Cybertruck....

thats me, protecting myself from anything, both good and bad. i have nothing other to protect than myself, sooo..... I'll protect what i have, what I am.

I’m now in love with song❤️

demm, perfect song for montage

My best friend ( we met online) I've never met her she's across the country. she is helping me over come my addiction. At 17 I'm moving across the country to be with her in 29 days. She is my protector

POV: you find yourself a person who is stronger then you and want to protect them

As an eldest sibling this hits a special way.

Plot twist:The samurai come to save you & the girl is the one kidnapped you

This goes so hard

To be honest, I would totally read a story based on this image because it looks interesting on how the Samurai and little girl ended up in this situation of being somewhere that looks like a drain. Like seriously!

The line is 'Going round in circles, stuck in slo mo,' dude :P

This reminds me of my caretaker 'alter', Mel... It's a bit aggressive for her, but the feeling is the same. Love you, dear. So much.

Awesome job!

2020 anyone

The number of people saying that it's Chara protecting you from the samurai x) Strange 'cause to me it was as if the samourai were talking to Chara ( i identified her after having that thought.) True the samourai has his sword ready, but what if he just fought against her pursuer? before catching her in the sewers? where she was running to hide herself. When listening to the music i imagine that those are the word from the samourai to Chara. And while some say that it's obvious the samourai is a bad guy because of the red and dark colour...not to me. But red is my favorite color, it represent fire, blood, but also love or hate. two of the strongest emotion. And fire can kill, but also protect, shape, feed. ( through cooking, and forging.) That's why to me red isn't really a "bad guy" colors. Furthermore the red part on his helmet is reminiscent of the Mandalorian helmet. Wich are proud Mercenary with a strong set of values, a code they follow, based on Honour, like the Samourai. And samourai are usually represented as a force of good, being noble and rightful. So even if you look at his color, to me there's nothing that say "bad guy" to me. especially since the lack of colour can be explained by the lack of light. they're in the sewer, the only light come from behind him. And having the light behing could make him appear as a savior/protector. Or an obstacle to go to that light. Both can be true. That was just a simple man sharing his view on this picture and song x)

I thank my best friend for showing me this 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

the pic matches perfectly

Sick bro

Dude since when did little red riding hood get so badass:)

❤💗So awesome 💗❤❣

The pic shoulda been Master Chief and Cortana. That woulda been perfect haha

From the background and music alone this is a masterpiece of a story to watch

gamer music right here.

Hi to everyone 🙃

I wait this nightcore so long time:)) Goog Job🔥🔥🔥🔥

Eyes: Protector Ears: Protector Brain: Braum^^

Did anyone else notice that 30 seconds in the songs say stuck in slow mo but the captions say going in slow mo or is that just me

100th like!

No One: Common Sense: Samurai>Girl Undertale Players: Where's the Knife?

When your the protector of everyone else 😂🙃 but can't always lift up yourself

It might just be because I watched Black Butler, but this song always reminds me of a demon deal. I'm guessing it's actually about friendship or some other sort of relationship, but still.

"I'll be your shelter" ... I hate to be that person to ask but... When he says shelter, and shelter generally means something to protect someone from rain, therefore being ABOVE the person seeking shelter... 👀

okay this song is pretty cool!!, i love it!

This is fire

Just don't give up. Solve your own problems yourself.

That's Hard🔥

This is “soul music”introverted😶‍🌫️, gym ninja 🥷 life 👌

Hecking love City Wolf

Génial

I think that the girl is like the samurai's daughter, and she wasn't supposed to be there, but she ended up protecting the samurai. The samurai's arms are crossed because he's still mad at her, but is proud that she's protecting those she cares about.

Amazing 🎶

My personal headcanon is that the samurai is the older brother and the little girl is his little sister wanting to help him so she grabbed the axe he forged and gifted to her for her 10th birthday. He says "So you wish to be a Protector like me?" She says "With all my heart big brother. I want to follow your path." He says "Very well. Let me officially welcome you to the Creed of Protectors. Come. Meet the others."
