I'd like to think that the sisters are born out of magic, just like how the moon king is. The moon king is most likely Tsukuyomi who is the moon God in Shintoism. He was born from the right eye of Izanagi, the creator which is probably why eyes were such a great deal in this movie. I also don't think there would be any reason to bring the moon king and the sun queen together because the sun queen would be his sister, Amaterasu. The two are in a feud due to Tsukuyomi killing Uke Mochi, the goddess of food, due to the fact that he didn't like how she created food, such as fish and rice fields. It was really shallow of him to do that so the two got into a feud and that's why night and day could never be together.

If the movie is based off these myths then I'm pretty sure Tsukuyomi either birthed them from stars or had a good time with a goddess. The heavy use of sun motifs could be because Amaterasu is a highly regarded goddess.

I suggest you read up on cultural aspects when coming up with theories about the family tree of Kubo because mythology is usually straightforward and doesn't need much thinking about.

Lastly, it isn't a guitar. It's a shamisen.

Keep up the good work!

This makes sense especially with the symbolism

Lakia seems to take inspiration from mythology in this film;

The Greek God Apollo is a God of light and music (especially fond on the lyre a harp thing) which in this case is Kubo's three stringed instrument.

Also the Egyptian god Ra is a sun god who has sacred symbols including a scarab beetle

Just some food for thought or a possible add on to the theory.

Brie McClose

Don't know if anyone mentioned it, but I will. In the scene when Kubo is out too late and his aunts find him and his mother comes to fight them. The scene is short but as Kubo's is flown away from his mother, you see her and her sisters unleash their full power.

The sisters magic is blue similar to the Moon and matches their Fathers blue light. But, Kubo's mother her magic is a bright gold compared to the sisters.

Even Kubo's magic is gold. If the theory is true that the Moon King married and produced offspring with the Sun Queen, it would make sense. Especially if the queen is more powerful than the king.

The sisters in film do say that Kubo's mother was strong and the most powerful of the three, probably inheriting more of their mother's power while the twins got their father's powers.

If this is true, I see the dynamic of the Moon king and Sun queen similar to that of Ponyos parents. Ponyos father is powerful and I think a wizard who helps keep the ocean in balance, but not as powerful as his wife Ponyos mother who is a goddess.

Kubo is based off the story of Princess Kaguya. The lost sister is Kubo’s mom. The instrument is a Shamisen not a guitar.

Brian Daniel GSG

@shamankid91692 You mean this video?
https://youtu.be/MjUHa9paDAI
It is a great video and theory and truly works so well. As much as I have enjoyed this, the Kaguya connects are much stronger.

Ackervm

Princess kaguya? As in the girl who was born in the bamboo shoot?

Kilravok

Yes, Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi and Osano-O are siblings, but as far as I know (I may be wrong) Osano-O and Tsukuyomi were at one point rivals for Amaterasu's affection and Osano-O never got over loosing. The idea of sibling love is older than anime.

Further, those three are merely the highest deities and mainstream deification of earth sun and moon. There are other, lesser, kami that are the personification of earth and moon.

@Red Jacket Dragons I agree. Kubo definitely has the magic with the shamisen being the catalyst to enhance those powers.

Red Jacket Dragons

Yes, I think this is the most likely theory. I also think that the reason Kubo can use magic is because of his heritage, as his mother is the daughter of the Moon King. Theorizor said the instrument is a powerful object, but remember, in the movie, the “monkey” said that it was Kubo that was powerful.

Interesting. So basically the older lady from the beginning is the Sun Queen so to say? I think she knows a lot more then she says. Also did you ever realize that the mom goes into a sort of trance like state when it’s daylight? Maybe she is the moon queen some how? Or is the heirs ether way the strongest of the family, obviously. The grandfather (moon king) wanted her daughter back because as the sisters said “were stronger together” so maybe he wasn’t after just kubos eye but kubo himself because he is a product of both moon and sun being more powerful then himself and his 3 daughters combined. In the beginning kubos mother says herself & the beetle were “rivals” so to speak almost forbidden, maybe because they were literally opposite. Moon & sun. Or maybe you said all of this already in the video and I was to excited to pay attention to detail lol. I feel like this particular theory is easy to over think just because all of the information is just at our fingertips. It is a good one though. Nice video!

Your onto something and I can confirm because Husband (Shannon Tindle) created film and story. It’s partly inspired by my childhood. My mother had dementia at young age and suffered from the sun downers phenomenon. Since she’s a Moon princess her power and mind work clearly at night and suffers in the daylight hours. It’s fun that folks put so much thought into this film!!! All the Sun stuff is not there. This was all 4 years ago so I’m sure everyone has moved onto new mysteries! Thanks for supporting the film!

I'm pretty sure it was explained that kubo's mother was the sister that ran away from the Moon King and I'm pretty sure the premise of the movie was the Sun King wanted to steal his grandson away from his parents by taking his eyes.

There's a legend about Ameterasu (the japanese sun goddess) going and hiding in a cave and denying the world her light and warmth. I find this to be a very similar way that Kubo's mother hides them away in a cave.

5y↑13

Your theory actually aligns with quite a bit of Eastern philosophy (balance) and with Japanese folklore (Sun Goddess and Moon God). Which are very appropriate here.

Allen the Potato

Then again the Moon God and Sun Goddess are siblings in mythology and they fight sometime

Zarola

5y↑32

I was wondering about this but do you think the villagers are just nice to the seemingly family-less street grandma because they know who she is? I know Japan is supposed to be based in politeness and reverence for elders but maybe if they remind a human-bound spirit of their origins they will die or lose some mysticism?
After the Moon King becomes human-bound no one in the village goes to tell him who he is. They just go along with him being a new addition to the village. So if the same thing had happened to the Sun goddess, maybe like you suggested she used her power to save Kubo's parents essences should they die in the future and create the "Life Shamisen".
She ends up in the village not know who she is but the villagers know and make sure she is alright. Kubo doesn't interact with anyone but her despite all of the children in the village like it is on purpose.
idk. I'll think about it more but glad to see you were able to get back to this one

Zarola

5y↑4

So instead of killing the other goddess and causing the separation it was his adament stance against Kubo's mom and dad. they were on the outs, on their definition of "love", at that point and the slaughter of killing Hanzo (and all of his men it seems) made it final.
Amaterasu became human trying to place Hanzo in the beetle, separated the aware and alert parts of mom's spirit into the monkey figures, and created the shamisen.

Zarola

5y↑1

@Allen the Potato Hmm well if they follow along with the original he was still married to his sister Amaterasu, anyway but it was still a killing that caused Amaterasu to separate from him completely.
And in the movie the nice grandma character didn't hang around outside after dark just like Kubo.

Allen the Potato

5y↑1

Well in Japan where the story takes place, the Moon King(God named Tsukiyomi) is the brother of the Sun Queen(Goddess Amaterasu) in japanese mythology

Mugaka Murakumo

5y↑6

The elderly woman could very well be a human incarnation of the goddess Amaterasu and the grandfather of course is Tsukuyomi AKA the moon king. The fact he is depicted as old instead of a young man and she also is very old and acts as Kubo's surrogate grandmother is very interesting. And if this theory is correct, it spins the Kojiki right on its head as Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi were brother and sister and were not romantically involved and had children together whatsoever. But I thought this too watching this movie of the grandmotherly lady being a possible incarnation of the sun goddess herself.

The gods of ancient times had many incarnations especially in Hinduism so I wouldn't put it past the writers in developing the character as so without blatantly saying it in the film.

I'd never have drawn correlations to Coraline and Kubo. This is pretty cool. Hoping we get a 2nd film of each!💜😁

Cheshire Cat

5y↑9

The “poetic baby” comment made me laugh! Also I can’t verify where I’ve heard this from but I feel as though beetles are known to be more of a sin symbol throughout certain cultures! This would support the fact that Hanzo is the son of the sun queen and that when trying to preserve his life she choose a symbol of him.

@The Theorizer I can not wait for this lika movie theory to be made omg

Whirly bird

5y↑19

Or
Also consider this cup of Tea :
She refers to her "dead husband" only metaphorically speaking - to be dead - and she mentions she cant get him to shut up, more likely a nod to his nature and personality.
When the villagers visit the grave sight to see their deceased loved ones, she's the only one who doesnt get hers shown on screen, we dont see her visiting her husband, and we dont get to see his spirit - So it's more likely, that she could indeed be referring to the Moon King, as her husband, who she VERY much is aware is still alive, but just sends a lantern out as a nod to her once beloved relationship that is now ruined by him an his need for more power and family Vendettas, and in her metaphoric means- he's technically dead, the Husband she once knew

The Theorizer

5y↑19

Then that does confirm it would have to be Hanzo's mother instead of the Moon King's wife; good thing too, my upcoming Laika universe theory requires that wife space to be open for the Beldam

horace morgan

5y↑2

But the guitAr as you said (shamisen) doesn’t give Kubo powers and technically isn’t a weapon ... Kubo already has powers since he’s part god or whatever the moon king is ... he uses the instrument to focus and channel his powers

In the ancient Egypt the scarab, wich looks like Hanso/Beetle, was a symbol of resurrection and the rise of the sun.
So aconnection between Hanso and the sun is indeed possible.

This is such a lovely theory! However, there is a video on the channel Gaijin Goomba that goes into an analysis of the origins of the characters and theorizes on a correlation with an actual Japanese story about a moon princess

I believe that the sisters and father are meant to be representative and weren’t made biologically.
Raiden- the man in the moon, he’s supposed to represent the moon itself and the pristine glow and loneliness it makes.
Mother/monkey- the north star, truly shins the brightest in the night sky and how it is seen as a good thing helping people find true north and as a sort of wishing well. Brings fortune
The sisters- Castor/Pollux of Gemini, I believe them to be a binary star system that work in unison. In their mythology it details how they became immortal.

Well, in coraline the 3 ghost kids died by getting their eyes gouged out, and had there souls stolen, and they died needing their eyes back, needing to escape, and needing to go back to their mothers. They died suddenly and with unfinished business and couldn't move on, they stayed TRAPPED ad ghosts and when coraline got their eyes back, helped them escape, and let them go see their mothers, they could finally move on to heaven with their souls set free as Angels! Just like what happens in corpse bride an paranorman!

I noticed something quite odd at 4:36. If you look in beetween the two bug trees, you can see what seems to be a blue, transparent body. What if THIS is the moon queen, seeing what happend after her husband's defeat. Idk just a small theory.

Namita Sali

This should tie in with the Mort Theory, as you said that in DreamWorks the moon is symbolizing unification of the Sky Gods, one of the Sky Gods is probably this Moon King who should be referred to as a God, and the fact that intelligent animals are involved in this film makes me rethink that the Twisted Sisters are suppressing Hanzo in his spiritual Kabuto beetle avatar.

Chrissie

Kubo’s dad was supose to have the power of the moon but in a battle kubo’s dad lost though he did scratch the eyes out of his Opponent
Kubo’s mom was the most powerful because she was supose to be thevsun godest and they where supose to keep balance but the father seeked power so her tryed to kill the moon godest and take his dauters power too.

I know i m pretty late for this but in the beginning when kubo first told his story n the marketplace, he said that hanzo fought against a filthy spider controlled by the moon king.I don t think that this is exactly OUT of coraline but it felt like a hint to the spider , beldam, and the moon king , spirit of the whole other world, that was kinda interesting to me

Ik this may come off as a really random request, but do you think you could look into doing a theory on the first Hotel Transylvania movie or maybe all of the HT films collectively?

About the beetle transformation. There are actually beetles called Sun beetles that can prove your point on the Sun queens existence

digifreak90

Two quick things.

First) This is just meant as an FYI, but it isn't a guitar, it's a Samisen/Shamisen (not sure on the spelling), a trditional Japanese String Instrument.

Second) To my understanding, it's not the instrument itself that holds the power, but Kubo and his mother, and the instrument is simply a conduit for the power. Remember that, near the beginning of the movie, Kubo's Mother has a nightmare and the paper starts moving on its own. And we've seen on a few other occasions that Kubo's mother is capable of using her power with out playing the instrument. Kubo's likely only needs the instrument due to being (as far as we're aware due to what's said in the movie) Half-Mortal.

I always imagined that there could have been a sun king, but that Kameyo is the sun queen? wow, that made my mind explode. although it doesn't sound so crazy ... Ancient cultures love the idea of duality XD, it occurs to me that, as you mentioned, Raiden (moon king) and the sun queen could have a relationship (the three sisters being born) and that have been confronted for many reasons (perhaps the ambition of the moon king for wanting more power than is due to him) ending in the sacrifice of the sun queen to protect humans. that would explain the hatred and disgust that the moon king has to the beings of the earth.
/// And that I still haven't made any comments about what the sun queen might have been Hanzo's mother, oh boy ~~~
it's just my imagination going crazy, but how great that in 2019 someone remembers this beautiful movie. a part two of coraline? we need a kubo prequel!!

Also I have my own theory and when I was watching the film I think that when Coobowie escapes the sisters at first he is in an ice place and I believe that is there other world that in the end when kubo kills the other sister he is in the real world

They must made a prequel of Kubo

No okay Kubo's mother would be the sun queen she is the light that protected Kubo from the dark she is the only human who knows that Kubo can do the things he can and the woman from the village is Kubo's grandmother you see the aunts were born from the moon king but there mother ( Kubo's grandmother) realized he was evil she started praying to the sun king to help her get out of the rain of darkness the sun king fell in love with her and they got married and had Kubo's mother. The moon king hates her and wants to kill the sun king so that he can release a rain of darkness on the grandmother and Kubo and his mother. His daughters aka the evil stepsisters or evil aunts are there to help him carry out his rain of darkness the beetle is actually the immortal soul of the sun king since he cannot always physically be there on earth. Kubo's mother was granted the power of sun queen after his grandmother was to old to carry out being the queen.

My theory is that the Moon king is Tsukuyomi the moon god in shintoism. And his wife was Amatarasu the goddess of the sun. And the sisters are their children. In Shinto mythology their is a story about how Amatarasu left her huzbend after Tsukuyomi killed a lesser god. And this is why we don’t see Amatarasu in the movie. This is also backed up by the fact that Kubos mom and the sisters look similar to classic depictions of Amatarasu.

Whoa! Watch out with that Laika Universe theory, Theorizer. People like Bobsheaux might not take too kindly with that idea.

A guitar has 6 (or more) strings. Kubo plays a shamisen

When the sisters said KUBO I got so scared 😨 😆

This movie was anime without being anime... If that makes sense. I loved it so much.

We need a movie that is to the Laika Shared Universe what the Avengers movies are to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Kubo and the two strings still scares me

What a perfect timing laika just released missing link and a kubo theory

Henith

Do you still plan on doing that laika universe theory or are you still working on it and how would boxtrolls fit in?

CallMehLena

I really just watched 2 hours of this and loved it i need to get a life

So this all means that Kubo is secretly a god himself.

U should really do a GoT theory, seeing as it's nearly over u could do what comes next, or some kind of backstory thing, idk, but it'd just be a cool theory to do

5:28 that's not a guitar, that's a shamisen. A traditional Asian instrument.

Garnished Artist

so yes kubo and charaline are connected cause one of the illustrator also made coralaine

Attia Mustafa

it's called the two strings cuz one string is of her mother, (moon) and father (sun

I don't think the old woman is Hanso mother but mother of kubos mother the moon family as she is herself is wearing blue. As she knows kubo more than he knows himself. What if the old woman was transformed like the moon king. Is it possible that Hanso mother or could be cursed just like the beldam.

The way I see the movie is Kubo is a very imaginative child dealing with his disabled mother and estranged grandfather and aunts, his grandfather also dealing with the loss of Hanzo and his daughter's disability, lashing out at Kubo. Kubo ends up killing his aunts (no one is supernatural but Kubo sees it this way to make it easier to deal with what he does) and brings his grandfather back to his senses or just reverts to unconditionally loving Kubo.

Ok, wanted to make a quick SpongeBob theory unrelated to this video. It's a good video, honestly.

So, all the characters in Spongebob seem to mirror Spongebob in a way. By "mirror", I mean copy his intense stupidity and ignorant bliss. Patrick, his so-called "best friend" is in a state of complete mental shutdown, Sandy dumbs herself down to be a sort of "guide" or "mentor" to him, and Squidward's insanity, his moments of complete insanity have him do what? Laugh like a madman and break down into idiocy. Ignorant bliss seems to be the defining trait of insanity in this show, and what does that say when it's main character embodies that trait? We've seen Spongebob do things a normal human would do. He does karate(an art requiring extreme muscle control and spacial awareness), he has an aptitude for precise fishing, and in the episode "Squidtastic Voyage", he uses a variation of the Heimlich Maneuver to get a clarinet out of Squidward's throat. Even though by the show's definition, he's a walking mess of insanity, he's still competent, unlike Patrick. In a sense, if Spongebob were truly insane, he would be like one of the dumber versions of Patrick. But he isn't. How could one intelligent side and one blissful side exist in conjunction, without a multiple personality set like Patrick has? If one doesn't exist in the first place. What if the reason for Patrick's "snap" was because of Spongebob? The torment of a purposely stupid idiot driving him over the edge? Maybe that's why Squidward avoids Spongebob, in most cases. Out of fear for his own sanity.

With every new video you release, i can slowly see you spirling deeper into madness. Lol. Please make sure you are eating and sleeping. We care about you.

I really didn't like Kubo and the two strings. IN the other Laika movies (such as Coraline, Paranorman and even Boxtrolls) the stories were more interesting while in Kubo it was kinda like a boring rendition of the heroes journey

@frog soap It was a fine movie. It didn't exactly scare me, I just don't think it quite lives up to other Laika movies.

frog soap

I watched it when I was a bit younger (like 12 or something I forgot when it came out but I'm 14 rn so u do the math) but I personally tried not to shit myself Every time the sisters were on screen
