The Tailor of Enbizaka

"But I must persevere with my work."

The Tailor Shop at Enbizaka is a song released by Akuno-P on December 7, 2009. It is part of the Seven Deadly Sins Series, describing the epitome of Envy.

Plot
The song follows the life of Kayo Sudou, a tailor in the city of Enbizaka, who is known for her skill. The only thing she thinks about most of the time is that her "lover" is unfaithful and does not come "home" to her.

One day, she sees him walking with a woman in a red kimono. Overcome with jealousy, Kayo murders her with her tailor scissors and takes the kimono. She acts as though she is concerned about the rising murder rate. She later sees her "lover" with a girl in a green sash and does the same to the girl, taking the sash. Then, she sees him buying a yellow hairpin for a girl, the tailor murders the girl, and takes her yellow hairpin.

The tailor dresses herself in the kimono and sash, that she tailored to fit herself, and hairpin, thinking that she has made herself beautiful for him. But as it turns out, the man does not even know her; the three females were his wife and daughters, and so, when he meets the tailor, he does not recognize her. Offended at this apparent lack of acknowledgment, the tailor murders him, too, and carries on with her work.

Conceptualization and Origin

 * The song's melody and Enbizaka's aesthetic pays homage to Feudal Japan.
 * When using different characters, 艶美 (enbi) and 坂 (zaka) translates as "beauty" and "slope", referring to Kayo's notable beauty but uneven psyche and skewed perspective.
 * The song's English title, "Leviathan Slope", is a reference to Leviathan, the patron demon of Envy, and refers to Kayo's inclination to her sin; the term "slope" refers to the wordplay for Enbizaka and its aformentioned meaning.

Curiosities

 * While the sillouette and the color of the "Unfaithful Lover" matches KAITO, the ending credits censor his blood-covered name, leaving his representative Vocaloid, if any, unknown.
 * Throughout the song PV, Kayo's Scissors differ in appearance and type, ranging from normal cutting scissors to specialized Japanese tailor scissors.
 * While tailoring the red kimono, empty alcohol bottles are seen strewn around Kayo. This may be due to Meiko's association with sake (rice wine).
