I mean, I'd go. It's the only place TO go. And if what's on the other side is some beautiful new world, then I'm laughing. Otherwise I'm staying in this hellish hallway for the rest of my life.

It's obviously a trick and the moment you enter the mouth, that beautiful image will turn into a thousand razor sharp teeth.

Yeah but the illusion will remain so that you willingly get devoured by the Beast. Yes, you'll get eaten. But the Beast is not unkind.

Same! It's like a metaphor that sometimes to get to somewhere beautiful you have to go through something hard or scary, but if you keep going it will be okay

or it's a metaphor for drugs, u get convinced that you're entering some beautiful realm of euphoria but in reality your getting eaten alive

I interpreted this as what you’d see before incarnating. We want to be born into this world but doing it is intimidating

I do believe those are windows to either side of the mouth.

I don't think that thing's holding her inside itself willingly. It's crying, blood even. Seems the real evil is what's inside, despite looks.

I love berserk but this definitely gives me more Chainsaw Man vibes than anything. When they go to “hell” and that scarecrow devil thingy comes into play

Makes me think of being trapped in hell and heaven being so close yet so far. Constantly being shown to us, only to be ripped away.

It's pretty hard to compete with a good time in reality with friends but on my own escapism looks a lot more attractive. Just be mindful of how much time you spend at the computer screen, take regular breaks and you will be fine.

This reminds me of The Gunslinger books where Jake Chambers is attacked by the house demon and it crawls toward him at the beginning of a long corridor! The second book I think, when Jake is trying to get from modern day New York back to Roland and co :)

A metaphor for the dangers of escapism. Opiate drugs are the most literal comparison. The nirvana is just an illusion within the high, and the reality is that you're being devoured by a demonic monster. We all must be content with our day to day lives, and realize life can never be pleasurable at all times. Escapism removes us from life, however hypnotic and pleasurable it may be.
