Red Shoe Parade

"In the name of divine justice..."

Red Shoe Parade is a speculative song made as a collaboration between Jounetsu-P and Akuno-P, released on December 26, 2010. The song, tells of a band of four people named the "Shadow Parade" who travel around the countryside comitting several crimes, claiming "in the name of divine justice."

Plot
One morning, the parade came across someone they deem a "wicked thief", whom they stole from before he can rob them, claiming it "in the name of divine justice". As they travel along, they become hungry. Finding a house that supposedly belongs to another "wicked thief", they steal the food inside. In the afternoon, the parade becomes "sick for human warmth," found a family of "wicked thieves" and "comforted their bodies and souls in the name of divine justice." This may imply that the parade raped the family, as they are shown holding the members of the family and causing them to bob up and down strangely. Rin sings that the parade came across a "wicked thief" who is laughing so they kill him out of envy "in the name of divine justice".

After their gruesome acts, the parade are shown being shepherded into a prison. One day, Rin and Len sing, they are allowed out of the darkness, where their journey begins again. As they journey forth, people stare at them- some laugh, while some cry. Their red shoes begin to burn their feet like fire, and the parade realized the shoes they wore are a different kind than the ones they originally wore- the shoes they wear now are made of red-hot iron. The parade burns out, with the final line of "You said this was something called "Punishment'."
