Default It's friggin Dia De Los Muertos.

First we have carnival, strange right? Then we have flowers. Even stranger. Two odd graphic concepts that would appear to clash with each other.

BUT .. I just thought of how everything seems to be pointing to a Dia De Los Muertos or in English 'Day Of The Dead' vibe this year.

It's a holiday celebrated by Latin Americans were they pay homage to the dead but also it takes the guise of a carnival atmosphere with loud, colourful parades in the street.

Heck, the funeral video was very DDLM. I'm almost certain now that this is where the producers took inspiration from identity wise [compare it to CBB's taking cue from Dante's Inferno].

And here is where it gets hillarious ... Mexican Marigolds, according to Wikipedia, are one of the most prominent flowers used in the celebrations.

The yellow flowers in the BB11 eye? You guessed it. Mexican Marigolds.



So yeah. That's it. Sorry for sounding like a lunatic nerd. Just a hunch I have. I might start bragging if the titles prove me right.

Or because someone posted a picture of a huge carnival themed stage today.

But fuck it, it could be some whacky post modern Abattoir chic for all we know.

Oh it will have nothing to do with the series I'm sure so in reality it's just me being an aesthetics nerd.

It's like how everyone thought CBB would be all satanic and evil coz' there was flamed on the walls but in reality nothing happened.
