Gallerian Marlon

I am going to analyse the sinners of Evillious Chronicles. And I will start off with Gallerian Marlon, as he is my favorite character and the one I am most familiar with. I shall try to make one of all other characters, though that depends on motivation and if this is something people enjoy. ->Firstly, who is Gallerian? For everyone who does not know. Gallerian Marlon is the sinner of greed from the series Evillious Chronicles by mothy, but specifically from his own part Judgment of Corruption (joc). He was a judge who fell into corruption by making a contract with a demon in order to save a doll which he believes is his deceased daughter. His story also clashes together with The Muzzle of Nemesis (tmon), which I will be analyzing by its own in another post. The analyzation will be divided into two parts as it is very long: this one about the music video, and another about the novel. ->Music video analysis Something I am going to delve into for the sin songs is the perspective of who is singing the lyrics. What is interesting is that Judgment of Corruption is sung from Gallerians own words. It is his way of showing us his deluded reality. ->The song is divided into four major parts Chapter 1: The corrupt judge and his sullied court Chapter 2: The girl of a miniature garden and the vessel of sin Chapter 3: The beginning of a civil war and the end of his judgement Chapter 4: Master of the hellish yard and the final judgement I am going to go through them one by one to break down the story in full.

->Chapter 1 We are introduced to Gallerian, immediately we see him with his evil smile. Gallerian will continue to wear such a smile and demonize himself throughout the entire video. This can be because of two reasons. 1: He wants you to see him as evil to intimidate you. He can be your devil or saint depending if you pay him or not. 2: He sees himself that way. He knows he is wrong for his actions. However, it simply does not matter to him, as long as he can further his goals. Money is a very common theme in chapter 1. After all, it is what is getting him forward to his goal. Almost all lyrics have something money related in them, and he makes a sign with his hand which means “money” in japan. Hell, the mv even flashes "money" over and over during one part.

This is however to hide his main goal. He makes you believe money is all he cares about to hide what is actually striving his greed, to fulfill his wish of saving his daughter. To him, his greed is less about money and more about trading the lives of countless people for the person he himself cares about the most. A wish that might seem selfless, but is the most selfish of all. He wants to prove himself to be above the gods (hubris) by resurrecting the dead. And therefore, he soon will be punished by Nemesis (I’ll talk more about this in my tmon analysis).

->Chapter 2 The only times we see the good side of him in the mv is when he is with his daughter. Or more so the doll, but it is always shown to be Michelle since it is from his pov. His expression is more soft and he’s smiling. The instrumental also gets noticeably softer and slower too from the pompous and grand instrumental the rest of the song holds as they hug. He does not want her to know about his demonic side. However, his silhouette fades to black in front of her, a hint of his true self being there despite him trying to hide it from her.

Another thing here is the words that pop up in between the lyrics. In chapter 1, all words were about something court related, or straight up just “money”. In this chapter however, we see words more related to his actual motives. "Accident - Mother and daughter" "Untreatable" "Hope - Magic" "Ma - Friend" "Contract - Devil" "Collecting - Vessels" "Revival - Regeneration" "Necessary - Cost" It explains the story as a whole. His daughter and wife dies in an accident and he is made to believe he can save his daughter through magic by contracting with the devil and collecting the other vessels of sin.

That is not what is the most interesting about this thought. Ma is a very important character to Gallerian's story and motivations. She does not appear in the mv, but she still haunts it behind the scenes. It’s sad that her name is also tied with “friend”, as she is the person who ruined his life to begin with. And even after his death, she uses their ties to gain his fortune (more about this in novel analysis).

->Chapter 3 Gallerian is eventually exposed for his crimes after accepting bribes from a war criminal. He is now going to be punished, his house is set on fire as he and the one he cares about the most are trapped inside. The scenery contracts the one from chapter 2. Michelle has her eyes open. His actions are on clear display and he feels as if she is judging him for having dragged her into his mess. Gallerian has his eyes closed, he is unaware of what she actually thinks about him. She watches over him with a smile.

Eventually they hug and their silhouettes burn away. Credits starts to roll, but they are abrupt by a gavel slamming into the words. While he is now dead, his story is not over. Even in death, Gallerian refuses to give up on his hopeless goal.
