Theory: Jacksepticeye Has Multiple Personality Disorder

Anti’s Motivations: An Open Discussion (+A Theory)

I’m not sure if there’s a post like this already so I’m sorry if this is repetitive, but I’ve been giving this some thought lately, specially now with this:

One thing I always look for in a villain/antagonist is their motivations and their plan of action in accordance to them.

Whether it’s the trope of ‘doing bad deeds for “good” reasons’ (e.g. The Vulture, Wilson Fisk, Negan, Thanos, Killmonger) or ‘doing “good” things for the “best” reasons (e.g. Claude Frollo, Mother Gothel) OR ‘doing everything to benefit myself’ (e.g. Kilgrave, Cruella de Vil, Firelord Ozai, Moriarty), O R ‘doing things with the intent of destroying the concept of good and bad deeds/reasons’ (e.g. Hannibal, The Joker), being able to feel as though the trope is natural for the villain themselves is what’s important to me.

Which brings me to the topic of Antisepticeye.

Again, these are just my thoughts so I’d very much like to hear anybody else’s as well. :)

Personally, with how Jack’s chosen to progress Anti’s storyline (which is by delving into the other egos’ storylines), I think Anti’s one true goal from the very beginning is to get rid of the other egos in an attempt to cleanse Jack of their natures, not because he seeks to control Jack, but to grant Jack more control of himself.

From the very beginning, Anti has done nothing but threaten either the viewers or the egos of his  presence, especially with his first real appearance in Say Goodbye. I remember this is where the evil-demonic-entity-possession idea came to be (which I still love <3) but when I look at how he holds himself here NOW, especially with THIS line:

I think it’s possible that he’s not saying Jack’s body was weak as an insult to Jack himself, but I think it’s an insult to us.

Imagine if you had a really REALLY close friend, who was kind and caring but tends to overwork themselves for the sake of people who believe in them. You understand their point of view, telling you that this is what makes them happy, but you also know that nothing good comes from overworking so you stick by their side, placing your faith in them to know their limits.

But then they reach their limits, but still push on. They tire themselves, strain themselves to the core, while you watch the very same people who believe in your friend show no sign of noticing, no sign of caring, and even worse, pushing your friend even MORE out of his limit. And one day you say no, shut up, you’re wrong, THAT’S ENOUGH.

Now look at this scene again, with that context:

The fact that his face is showing anger at the viewer instead of triumph over what can be assumed as a victory feels much more natural now. He glitches into a smile for a second yes, but think of it as a cynical smile. “He thinks they actually care. You all think you care? YOU THINK YOU CARE?? I WOULDN’T BE HERE IF YOU DID. HIS BODY WAS WEAK AND YOU LET IT HAPPEN. YOU WANTED THIS.”

Hell, even stabbing the pumpkin representing Jack’s gift to us (or maybe just us in particular) is the cherry on top.

In fact, if there is a masterpost of ALL of Anti’s appearances (which I’m sure there is), try looking at them in this context as well. And heck, this is probably really grasping at straws but by the end of 2017 Jack has mentioned time and time again that he had gone in his own spiral of depression, one that he had slowly but surely worked through thank fuck. And around the time, I think most of the egos had started to disappear. Then came the start of 2018 and without the egos, Jack has been much more positive than he was before. HECK, PMA.

The fact that this Anti story and Jack’s own personal life can get subtly interwoven like this is pretty fucking amazing, but if it wasn’t and was just a coincidence then whoops. :)

So overall, I think Anti thinks we don’t deserve Jack. His time, his efforts, EVERYTHING. There might’ve been a time when he did, especially since it was thanks to the community that Anti came to be, but then Dr. Schneeplestein happened, then Marvin, then on and on the new egos came to be and on and on the weight on Jack’s shoulders grew. Jack became more Jacksepticeye than Sean McLoughlin, so what did Anti do? What was the only thing he could do?

Or more specifically, what is an antiseptic suppose to do?

TL;DR: I think Anti, at his core, is an Antivirus. He detects the threats to Jack’s well-being, and he thinks the other egos are exactly that. So he tries to get rid of them all AND the memories that come with them. This leads to Jack being in a comatose state, but a safe mode state, and he continues his mission while he sleeps.

But now that most of said threats have already been “quarantined”, all that’s left to do to make sure that any copies or connection attempts from outside fores (us) to the egos do NOT pass. And what better way to do this other than upgrading into a firewall?

So does this mean Anti falls under the trope of “doing bad things for good reasons”? Honestly, I don’t think so, at least not entirely. It could be argued that his true goal is simply self-preservation. To get rid of the egos not for Jack’s sake, but for his. To come back to the state of mind where it was just the two of them, where at least it was somewhat peaceful.

But that’s just a theory. I’d love to learn more. <3

Sister Location Part 1 Screenshots

Since I’m stuck in quarantine and my entire states in lockdown and I really have nothing better to do. I am going to make it a goal of mine to take a screenshot of EVERY Anti glitch (as in actual Anti showing up), from SL 1 to whatever video I land on when this ends. 

So without further ado in no particular order-

In conclusion SL 1 Anti is very screamy and very smirky.

(course, I’m not perfect, so if there’s a screenshot you think I missed don’t hesitate to give me something)

And i think we got Gen 4 of Anti

Doki Doki- Can You Figure Out Who Did It

From what we observed, this Gen of Anti is more lowkey and patient than the other three. He's more indirect when speaking to us (viewers) and when he does speak, it's often in hidden places (hidden words in the sounds) and unlike the other three, this one is more Serious and fast. Gen 3 is serious, but it's exaggerated serious, it's like a tantrum. This one, is more mature kind of serious, he's still pissed, but he'll be in the background much more. His replies is less in zalgo, which means, this Gen can control his raging anger! Which means, this Phase of Anti can be more... Decieving! But he's not compose (not like Dark), but he's almost there!. This can also be seen in Chase, in there, he's just watching Chase having a mental breakdown, and his glitch is more auditory than visual

hewwo i would like to propose a system to tell the difference between antis

Gen 1, Gen 2, and Gen 3

Gen 1:

Sister Location-Say goodbye, the good ol’ OG. He has a strong Halloween and demon/poltergeist vibe to him. He’s also the most well rounded of the three. His gltches are more static bursts and scanlines, with more dark green/blue of a pallete.

Gen 2:

Detention-PAX East. Gen 2 is super bouncy and childlike compared to the other two, kind of like an upset child who’s mad over not being the parent’s favourite. Probably the most easy to tell the difference from the others because of his hair being bright green and the cuts on his throat being two small stabs around the vocal cords. His glitches are a lighter green.

Gen 3:

The plauge Games-Kill Jacksepticeye and current. Gen 3 is extremely violent and physical, and probably the most broken-voiced of all three of them. He’s the most expressive and moves around the screen more erradically as well as it being near impossible to get a clear image of him. (Like legit I tried to screenshot him for like 15 minutes the fucker is super fast). He has a large conncection to Henrik and Jack as well as Illness, attacking a body until he gains control. His throat wound is probably the largest and worst looking, as if it was poorly reopened. His glitches are erratic bursts of static and intense scanlines, as well as a dark green, dark blue, and sometimes deep purple color pallete.

Of the three I believe Jack is going to stay with Gen 3 for the story arc of the egos, as the Henrik situation seems to be current and we’ll (unfortunately) see an update on his condition soon.

Being in the jacksepticeye, markiplier, and Thomas Sanders communities at the same time on tumblr like

JSE: zalgo text, missing egos, everything’s on fire, F E A R

Markiplier: THEDOORTHEDOORTHEDOORTHEFUCKINGDOOR WE ARE ALL DYING WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED

Thomas Sanders: ok but what other flavours of deodorant does Remus eat? Would he eat the good smelling kind or is it all just badness?

Look what I found!

Here’s the “periodic table” everyone has been talking about.

Marvin took notes on the Durations and Procedures rows and the entire top page of the table.

Maybe its not a memory at all, maybe its Anti entering in Chase's dream

Theory: Dark Silence -> Stories Untold - Chapter 4

So, anyone else think that what we saw in Dark Silence is what Jack/Chase’s nightmare/memory was about?

No one

Absolutely no one

Jack: ...Hi

Fandom: WHAT DOES THAT MEAN! IT'S A HINT! SIGN OF ANTI!!!!

I couldn’t get this idea out of my head, so did what I do best and drew it messily! :D

Did Marvin save Chase from being in Anti’s captivity?

Remember when Chase suddenly got transported to the parking garage?

And then Marvin saw Anti and Chase together in the car when he was looking into his crystal ball?

What if Marvin WAS actually the one that teleported Chase hours into the future in a safer location to prevent Anti from trying to get to him?

Edit: AND TO ADD TO THAT, MARVIN IS ALSO TRYING TO DISCOVER TIME TRAVEL. HE MUST’VE FOUND A WAY TO SEND CHASE A FEW HOURS INTO THE FUTURE.

yes! Glitchy Boy is one unpredictable mf! Like his creator

Thomas Sanders: Oh wow guys I just picked up a prop for my next sides video and WOW are you in for it hahaha it’s going to be great and you’re all going to be so excited!!
