"This is a story of long ago. It began with a noblewoman and her greed stuffed into this box. 'Well now, shall we give it a name?'"
Origins[]
Plot[]
This song tells the story of two women, one named Konoko and the other named Anoko, lusting over each other. For an unknown reason, they began to put all of their desires into a presumably cursed box they created and called "the Secret Goldfish."
At some point in the song, it escalates into cutting their own body parts and stuffing them into the box as part of an idea where they could "make a friend from scratch." The box is later passed on to "the next pair," where the same thing repeats itself again.
