Dream Eater Merry (Manga) | comment |
Yumeji Fujiwara has a strange ability. He can see the aura of peoples' dreams. Around himself, there is a black aura. A nightmare. Though Yumeji lives a comfortable life with his childhood friend Isana and his school's Literature Club, he's had a recurring dream of cats. Multiple cats attacking him, trying to claim his body so they can cross over from the nightmare to our world.There is another party involved. A girl in a strange set of clothes. She falls on top of Yumeji one day and, after getting her hat back, finds her way into his world. Her name is Merry Nightmare, a dream eater. She has no memories of from where or who she was and seeks to return to the world of dreams.Dream Eater Merry (or Yumekui Merry in Japanese) is a manga by Yoshitake Ushiki, which was serialized in Manga Time Kirara Forward from 2008 to 2020 and compiled into 24 volumes. It was adapted into an anime in the winter of 2011 by J.C. Staff. Touhou Project fans may recognize the author from his doujinshi work Advent Cirno, and the people handling the music as IOSYS.It also has a Spin-Off Prequel three chapter manga called Kagefumi Merry (Shadow Stomper Merry). | |

Heroic BSoD: Both Merry and Yumeji get hit with one. Merry when Engi tells her that, once they get into the real world, there's no way back to the dream world, and Yumeji after he realizes that by killing any Dream Demon who's already taken a vessel, ''they also destroy that person's dreams... both the at night kind of dream AND the personal ambition variety (the only exception to this is if is Merry the one defeating the Nightmares). | |

Hidden Agenda Villain | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_161fa3b8 | comment |
Hidden Agenda Villain: "Pharos" Hercules draws nightmares to the waking world, brutally kills any that won't follow him, and lets his followers run wild. John Doe is trying to puzzle out his plans, questioning every revelation, even those from Hercules's right-hand minions. Merry thinks Hercules is just out to cause chaos and is using the appearance of a master plan as cover to keep his foes guessing. Hercules eventually reveals his grand scheme: to destroy the Gate between Dream and Reality so nightmares may be physically present in the real world, but not so he may conquer the world - but so he may crush and destroy everyone, nightmares and humans both. He is a nightmare of fire after all, the signaling flame, and as a living fire, all he wants is to consume and burn brighter. So technically Merry was right, but his methods were frightfully sophisticated. | |

Dull Eyes of Unhappiness: The victims of Dream Loss Syndrome, who are not so much unhappy as unmotivated, almost to the point of complete catatonia. They were formerly symbiotes or possessed vessels of Dream Demons; when the demon's killed, all the dreams and ambitions of the human vessel die with it. | |

Genius Loci | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_586624e5 | comment |
Genius Loci: Each nightmare is not only the discrete person but their "yard" or the field that forms around them in a daydream. So John Doe is as much the empty city that he chases Yumeji through at the very beginning and the cat warriors who fight for him, as he is the masked cat-man who does the chasing. It seems only the nightmare whose yard in which the current daydream takes place has the power to end it, though it seems to take a few moments' concentration - meaning a nightmare can't just pick a fight and then end it when things suddenly go badly for them. Hercules's greatest power, as the "lighthouse", is to direct others into his own yard where he controls the shape of local reality, which means he has the home field advantage whenever he wants it and can prevent anyone from escaping. | |

Hellish Pupils | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_5a4ae281 | comment |
Hellish Pupils: Dream Demons often have them called Nightmare Pupils. Merry's pupils are rectangular (like a sheep's or a tapir's). She has Unusual Ears, too. Some of the eye patterns that were seen in the manga. Clockwise from the the bottom-left: "Chain" Noir's looks like a chain-link, the Threepiece sister's is a triangle, Ichima's is a swirl, "Chaser" John Doe's is his mouth on his mask, Chris Evergreen looks like a sideways H, "Maze" Landsborough's looks like a sideways #, and "Pharos" Hercules looks like a sun or a shining light. Yumeji's eye take on the pupil of the Dream Demon whose power he is replicating with Lucid Gadget. In chapter 24, Yumeji's eyes took on the pattern of John's mouth on his mask when he first formed John's weapon. In Chapter 25, Yumeji's eyes took on the pattern of Ichima's swirly eye pattern when he used her power to call forth one of her giant kokeshi toys to protect John. In Chapter 30, Yumeji's right eye takes on Chris's eye pattern when Yumeji uses Chris' Rocket Punch move. In chapter 31, Yumeji's right eye takes on Noir's eye pattern when calling forth one of her chains. | |

Meaningful Echo: Both Merry and Wiles say the lines "Lights! Camera! Action!" in their "yards" when initiating their power in it. It turns out that the Merry of this story is one of the Wiles copies. | |

Meaningful Name | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: The names of both lead characters are related to dreaming: Yumeji - "Yumeji" means "Dream Road", or "Road to Dreams" depending on personal interpretation. Merry's surname is Nightmare, and her full name is "Sheep" Merry Nightmare. The author also states in an omake that her name is based on Mary, as in 'Mary Had a Little Lamb'. Both of the protagonists' names explain themselves. Yumeji could mean "Path to the Dream", which is his Chekhov's Skill, while Merry Nightmare, as ridiculous as it may sound, just mean merry nightmare. Many of the Dream Demon's names are this, like "Chaser" John Doe being a hunter, "Maze" Landsborough traps people in a maze, "Chain" Noir uses chains, etc. Pharos means "Lighthouse" and is referred as the light that guides all the other nightmares to the real world. This becomes even more meaningful when you remember that a lighthouse is to guide, and only to guide. Chris Evergreen is a dream of pining for an unattainable love. How fitting that the inside of his cloak looks like a starry sky. | |

Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: Yumeji can see what kind of dreams people will have from the color of their auras. Often he's wrong since most dreams are a confusing array of colors rather than anything stable and coherent, except for Black: Is 100% nightmares and daydreams when a Dream Demon tries to take over a host or is already in one. | |

All Love Is Unrequited | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_7a82c3d2 | comment |
All Love Is Unrequited: Given his first line about the cruelty of meeting in a dream, Chris Evergreen seems to be a nightmare of this trope - a dream of meeting and falling in love only for it to collapse upon awakening, leaving nothing but a sense of unrequited longing when you remember the dream after. Though it's implied Chris felt something of the same thing in return for Mei. Fittingly, his appearance also prompts the collapse of Takateru and Yumeji's own unrequited crushes on Mei. | |

Black Eyes of Evil: Ichima until her Heel–Face Turn. Subverted with Takateru, whose eyes are almost entirely black (with very thin slices of whites visible around them), only he's probably the nicest guy in the cast. Played with. See, he's possessed by the Big Bad... but Taka really is that nice, normally. | |

As "Engi", it has the meaning of "meadow" in Icelandic which would be fitting considering that her dream world is a meadow. Is it Treesea or Woodsea "Pharos" Hercules/Heracles/Elcres Yumeji's favorite Tokusatsu character is either Glitchou or Guriccho. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: At one point, Yumeji is injured and at the mercy of "Chaser" John Doe, who coldly tells him that it would be incredibly easy to take over his body at that moment. Yumeji cringes at what's coming – but John promptly states that to do so would be crude and unsportsmanlike ("I am a hunter, not a thief"), and summons a pair of cute voluptuous cat girls to tend to Yumeji's wounds! Also Taka's story about his little sister where he talks about how she was sickly when she was little and kept being bounced from hospital to hospital until she could no longer smile. At least until Taka started with those ridiculous poems of his, sparking his dream of wanting to make everyone he meets laugh through his poems. He then pauses before saying that she's completely healthy now and even working part-time at a burger joint. And you get another one from Chapter 36, when it is revealed that Takateru is Hercules's host, and his little sister being healthier is due to Hercules putting a dream demon in her, to hold her hostage against Takateru. Shiragi, as the new villain, seems to be specializing in inflicting this: he somehow fulfills people's dreams, at the same time killing any Dream Demon that has started to nest in them, but which has left several people feeling empty and drained after, as if now they have nothing worth striving for. Particularly harsh with Ren as he had been partnered with his Dream Demon, "Hunter" Quartier Latin, and briefly forgot all about Dream Demons after Shiragi "fulfilled his dream" of restoring his collapsing family life. | |

Oh, Crap!: Engi gets one after Merry starts going berserk due to Yumeji being nearly cut in half. Especially the moment when Merry shattered all of Engi's swords, prompting Engi to try rallying her nerve while explaining her blade could keep reforming forever as long as there was moonlight, to which Merry simply lifts her hand and shatters the moon. Yumeji gets this when he hears the people in his class talking about how they all had the same nightmare. He uses his dream-seeing trick and...every single person has the same black aura. Happens in episode nine of the anime when Yumeji learns that Isana's been possessed by a Dream Demon. Hercules gets one as well. And it's deliciously so, when Yumeji copies his ability. | |

Be Careful What You Wish For: Following Hercules's defeat, Shiragi Kyou has stepped forward as the new villain and deals primarily in this - he somehow fulfills the dreams of those who are hosting a Nightmare, but in the process slays the Dream Demon in question and yet somehow fixes the damage to one's dreams that this would normally cause. Those with shortsighted dreams, such as something that could be fulfilled by a singular event, seem to be almost as lost as people who lost their dreams entirely, as they now no longer have anything for which to strive. Others have come out of it surprisingly intact, but for the death of the Dream Demon. | |

Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: As Verbiest escapes from Merry in the second chapter, he says "Hasta La Vista Bey Bee" to her. Merry leaves a message for the real Wiles with the blood of one of the copies that say, "All your Wiles belong to me." | |

Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_c96e8bb5 | comment |
Yumeji's eye take on the pupil of the Dream Demon whose power he is replicating with Lucid Gadget. In chapter 24, Yumeji's eyes took on the pattern of John's mouth on his mask when he first formed John's weapon. In Chapter 25, Yumeji's eyes took on the pattern of Ichima's swirly eye pattern when he used her power to call forth one of her giant kokeshi toys to protect John. In Chapter 30, Yumeji's right eye takes on Chris's eye pattern when Yumeji uses Chris' Rocket Punch move. In chapter 31, Yumeji's right eye takes on Noir's eye pattern when calling forth one of her chains. | |

Ship Tease: Isana's feelings towards Yumeji are as plain as day, and both Merry and Yui have given some hints of having feelings towards him as well, Merry more so. Merry's feelings are confirmed in the last chapter by giving Yumeji her first (and only) kiss to him before disappearing from the waking world. | |

Humans Are Special: Despite all their powers and superhuman strength, nightmares envy humanity's ability to grow and change; and some hate that their existence is entirely dependent upon humanity. | |

Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_e543a655 | comment |
Pharos means "Lighthouse" and is referred as the light that guides all the other nightmares to the real world. This becomes even more meaningful when you remember that a lighthouse is to guide, and only to guide. | |

Clothing Damage: A non-fanservice type happens during Merry's fight with a Dream Demon in the 6th volume. Her opponent thinks that her coattails look like eels and he rips one of them off. Merry isn't amused. Other non-fanservice example is Yumeji, from Chapters 57 to 60, his ripped and bloodied shirt looks a lot like a dark version of Merry's coattails. | |

Clingy Jealous Girl: To an extent, Isana. She's not really all that clingy, but she DOES get jealous when a girl she doesn't know shows up asking for Fujiwara. It's Yui (and Engi) coming to train him and Merry. All considering, her jealousy may just be for Rule of Funny. | |

Power Degeneration | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_f03edab9 | comment |
Power Degeneration: Any use of a nightmare's power while possessing a person or bodily manifest on Earth causes a kind of backlash against the Gate between worlds. This includes Merry's own strength, and as she is the Gate as well as the Sheep, it means that all her fighting to push nightmares back across the Gate has been harming her. In the battle against Hercules, Merry nearly destroys herself from using too much of her power in a blind rage. | |

Hatsuyume: The Threepiece sisters each represent some of the items dreamed. Both sisters have triangle pupils representing Ichi-Fuji(1. Mt. Fuji)note art and crafts often use a triangle to represent the mountain. Engi is the first set: her hair wings represents the Ni-Taka(2. Hawk); her Sannasubi sword for the San-Nasubi(3. Eggplant). Patti is the uncommon second set: her fan hair decoration represents the Yon-Sen(4. Fan)note a spread out fan is like the spread out base of Mt. Fuji; her pouch represents the Go-Tobako(5. Tobacco)note tobacco in Japan's past is kept in a pouch; Tobacco smoke rises up in the air like a hawk; her Rokuzatou katana for Roku-Zato(6. Blind Zato)note a Zato is a rank of lute monks who are often blind and monks are bald (Ke ga nai); Eggplants have no hair (Ke ga nai); "Ke ga nai" is pronounced similar to "Keganai" (no injury). | |

Running Gag | |
Dream Eater Merry (Manga) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Yumeji walking into the bath...and someone's already there, usually it's Isana. She notes that he's done this fourteen times before the two that we see in story. Later, Merry walks in on HIM. Yui telling people to depend on her as an older sister, and then being told she's younger than they are. In at least half the glimpses we get of Full Hell Boarder Glitchou, the main character hurts his wrist or ankle. It eventually gets lampshaded by Merry when Yumeji complains about a sore wrist and she asks if he's pretending to be Glitchou. Takes a more serious turn when Yumeji starts having bouts of blinding pain in that same spot, that have just been getting worse. | |

Talking Is a Free Action: Averted frequently. Someone will try to explain something in the middle of a fight and get punished hard for being too wordy and ignoring the enemy. Yumeji nearly gets killed because of this during the fight with "Chain" Noir. | |
