History WMG / FridayNightFunkin

And Girlfriend is the host. It would explain why she's always the one in danger, why she never does anything, why she's never concerned about anything, [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers and why Senpai's outburst happened so suddenly.]]

Considering how Pico, a very influential part of Flash's history, was included and considering how Coach Z is a rapper (or at least tries to be), perhaps he might be a BonusBoss of sorts with songs like "These Peoples Try to Fade Me" or "Fish-Eye Lens". Either that or Coach Z might dress as an FNF character for Homestar's 2021 Halloween toon.

* As you probably know the transition to Week 5's final song "Winter-Horrorland" takes a [[SurpriseCreepy very dark turn]], with everything changing to a very gruesome scene in just a couple of seconds, with everyone either [[SurprisinglySuddenDeath presumably dead]], or have ran away. But this troper thinks otherwise, the Monster is possibly capable of changing things to suit to what they like, but only for a couple of minutes. You see the Monster in the background of the first two songs (Next to [[Music/HatsuneMiku Hatsune Miku]], funnily enough.), this could be because the Monster could be studying the layout of the mall so they can replicate it in their own gruesome way, and when they do their surprise appearance by making a scene (But no screams, weirdly.), it could be possible that the Monster is warping reality through the eyes of the Boyfriend and the Girlfriend, because we only see those three and nobody else, and then after the Boyfriend sings his way though the Monster's morbid song ([[NotAfraidToDie Unfazed]], might I add!), things probably returned to normal, after that fiasco. Let's just be glad the Boyfriend (hopefully) didn't fail against the Monster.

Given how much he hates Boyfriend, and how he trapped Spirit in a dating sim, the fact that he doesn't want his daughter to date Boyfriend could stem less from being an OverprotectiveDad and more from a hatred for humans.

[[WMG:Daddy Dearest is a form of the OverprotectiveDad trope, but with a twist; he's not trying to keep people away from The Girlfriend, he's trying to keep her for ''himself'']]

* WordOfGod is that Boyfriend and Girlfriend ended up in the desert where Tankman is located because Daddy Dearest rigged a plane Boyfriend and Girlfriend were on to crash there. What happens in the third Henry Stickmin game? Henry infiltrates an airship that flies above a desert. Furthermore, Henry appears in Week 5, in the crowd, during the first song. With these two things, it's all but confirmed Boyfriend will have a challenge with Henry.

[[WMG:Boyfriend's family member(s) (besides Ritz the Rat)]]
Not counting Hatsune Miku.

He was popular during the 2000s, and his singing mostly consists of sounds that would translate well in ''FNF'' format.

Bonus points if he teams up with Monster.

** Possibly Jossed, considering [[spoiler:the events of the Stress cutscene]].

[[spoiler:Many believe that it's Mommy Mearest whose severed head is on top of the Christmas tree at the end of Week 5, but the hair looks more like the Girlfriend's... even though the Girlfriend herself is clearly alive and well, sitting right there on top of the speakers as always. But notice how Lemon Monster expresses a much stronger interest in eating the Boyfriend than the Girlfriend this time around. It may have already killed the Girlfriend offscreen, but given up after she simply respawned, and will now settle for making the Boyfriend its main course instead.]]

[[WMG:Senpai is [[spoiler: the spirits of a boy/some boys who didn't treat Girlfriend right.]]]]

* With how he's initially handsome and hospitable only to later reveal himself as crude (and treating Girlfriend as an accessory to the situation at best), perhaps [[spoiler: the reason Dad sealed him/them in the game was because they played her, and said some truly outrageous things. If they're going to act like life's a game, the logic must have went...give them a game. With the disregard for body autonomy pre-Thorns, perhaps it was...not a wise move, but certainly a bit more of a justifiable one. Was it men like these that caused Dad to grow so wary?]]

* [[spoiler: At first he was probably happy to finally have a real human to interact with but once he noticed who the girlfriend was he became mad and jealous because not only is the boyfriend still alive and free he’s also dating the same girl he did before he was sent into a FateWorseThanDeath by her father.]]
** The idea is correct, but the way it was presented was jossed. [[spoiler: Spirit does not control Senpai, and Senpai's turn was due to the programmers not taking into account him losing, because he is not supposed to lose.]]

And Girlfriend is the host. It would explain why she's always the one in danger, why she never does anything, why she's never concerned about anything, [[spoiler: [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers and why Senpai's outburst happened so suddenly.]] ]]

* Jossed, WordOfGod confirms that she looks human because of "true love". However, [[spoiler:she does partially and temporarily turn back to a demon form when the Tankmen try to shoot her in Week 7.]]

* During "Stress", Sgt. John Captain was about to [[spoiler:shoot the Girlfriend]], but [[spoiler:Pico came and mowed down his entire army, interrupting his plans]], so he has every reason to be angry at the incident and fight the Boyfriend in retaliation.
* [[spoiler:The Monster always wanted to eat the Boyfriend and the Girlfriend, so it's no surprise if he attacks both of them on the spot. Bonus points for him only showing up during the last songs of Weeks 2 and 5.]]
* [[spoiler:"Spirit" wanted to free himself by beating Boyfriend and take his place. It's obvious why a boss battle will take place that way. Heck, his song, "Thorns", resembles an RPG boss battle music too!]]

[[WMG:Senpai [[spoiler:isn’t actually dead]].]]
[[spoiler:Due to him being a program it’s likely that just starting a new game in Hating Simulator will bring him back like nothing happened.]]
* [[spoiler:Does that make him "not actually dead", though, or does it just make the player a time travelling entity within the game world a la Undertale?]]

Yes, really. Either we'll play as a [[RoleReversalBoss different character against him]], or Boyfriend will face some kind of clone/alternate universe version of himself.

He explicitly mentions "Friday Night Funkin' lore", "press[ing] the arrows", acknowledges that his opponent might be "some internet streamer screaming like a sociopath right now", and he says his "dead grandmother has more nimble fingers", which would only be a relevant remark to the player, not the singing opponent he supposedly sees in front of him.
Plus, as the Newgrounds logo, he would naturally be able to look on from his little corner to see it all transpire.
