In case anyone is wondering, the artist of this MV has made MVs notably for other vocaP’s like Kikuo’s “Love Me, Love Me, Love Me” or Babuchan’s “Balloon Syndrome”
i think this song may be describing phone addiction/an addiction to the internet but also succumbing to internet's culture of "cancelling people" (ex. the stuffed animals surrounding the masked animal, the lines "Expose everything!" and "Truth, Dark secrets") and believing in things that sometimes may not be the truth. It could also be describing how the internet is used nowadays instead of what it was supposed to be. Educational information, easy access to it, meeting new people; all of which is still found on the surface, but when dug deeper, you might fall into a rabbit hole of dark themes (vocaloid may be one of the minor examples, lol). The lines "Stare at your palm and miss your step" and "You're just gonna stay unaware of anything (in the outside world?)" do play into the fact that the person in the video is addicted to their phone and cannot live without it. Honestly, I'm not much of a theorist myself, so this is just from the vibes of what the video and song gave me 🫂 It's an amazing song, I'm a huge of Hiiragi Kirai but this one just hits different lol. love the tuning and everything!
We almost have the same idea, but I do wanna add another perspective, which is how we use the internet as a way to be validated and think of it as ‘therapy’, which is unhealthy when they people you interact is okay with a lot of bad things you do. Hence the title ‘True Therapy’.
This song is such a bop! Hiiragi's always the master of making ominous instrumentals but I think this one's simplicity yet how it builds up makes it stand out amongst his other works

Omg i dig the vocals in this, i like how they didn't make flower's voice so high, like in most songs and they made her voice deeper. I like deep flower. And The song itself is a banger as always OwO
in addition to another annotation(s) made in the comment section I believe this song is about the Internet being an outlet. To put it simply, it's "true therapy". The protangnist is indulging in what they call therapy, ignoring their messy room to reap dopamine from social media. They are so oblivious to their surroundings, that the atmosphere becomes very noisy at the end and because of their obliviousness, they suffer The lyrics seem rather inviting, or embody an addiction, "see where it leads you.."
I want to become a cool person who comes up with song theories but unfortunately i am brainless so i shall sit here enjoying this song and other peoples nice theories
