"Better not be sad" Honey, you've got a big storm comin-

Pressure of society to the children. Expectations versus dreams. Why I like this kinds of song because such topics are made to be discussed. You will not find songs that discuss heavy topics in the pop industry.

ah, yes, the classic mental breakdown music of my highschool years

AH yEs a classic song we students listen to, more times than we can count

I LOVE your gasp at “can you untie the rope around his neck” that was so genuine. Your reactions to songs make me appreciate them more.

i HAD to click fast since this is my favorite song. Worst part is that my school blocked this song specifically and songs like gommenne gomenne are still up.

Fun fact: Lost Ones Weeping and Rolling Girl are banned on my school’s computers. Huh, *I wonder why..*

"Better not be sad" boss it's literally called Lost One's Weeping what were you expecting

What’s sad about this is that he’s wearing a *middle school* uniform

just my two cents of how I interpret this song: the song is about a boy who’s under a lot of pressure to do well in school, at the extent of his own self. He sees himself as the mannequin (if you look closely at the him with the paper on his face and the other bodies, they have slits on the limbs and have ball joints on the fingers), mainly someone that exists to do whatever others want, and the paper on his face a projection of what others see him: a blank slate free to be projected on. He tries to tell himself that living like this is fine, but he’s slowly realizing that he’s not okay with anything. When given an assignment to write about himself, he realizes he doesn’t really know who “he” is. The desks and chairs flying around I always saw as an internal fight and bottling up his frustrations, instead of acting and being justifiably angry. At the end he realizes that because of the pressures he never really developed properly emotionally or socially and blames the expectations and pressures placed on him and himself for not realizing sooner what was happening. Really though, Neru is amazing at writing music that relates to the struggles of growing up and youth, and it really shines through in this song and his early works. When I heard this song the first time I started crying. Neru has been the only vocaloid producer I’ve followed consistently since middle school, and he just keeps getting better. Thank you for reacting to this song, and to anyone who reads this: you’re ok. You’re smart, you’re kind, you’re beautiful, and you’re important. Things may seem rough now, but it’ll get better. You’ll be ok in the end. Keep going.

“That doesn’t sound sad, holy shit!” Oh boy, that means it gonna be REALLY sad

I listened to this song all the time during middle school 😳 It’s one of my favorite songs.

As someone who has a learning disability, the highschool that I went to wasn't very helpful for someone who had problems. Thankful these three teachers helped me through and help me graduate. These teachers were a Math, Science and History teacher. They didn't see me as a child. They saw me as a human being that just needed help. I am thankful that they care about the children they teach. The science teacher went on to go to Med school to become a First responder. I'm glad that he made that choice now. Edit: Holy shit, this is the most likes I've ever gotten. To those who wished me well and liked my comment seeing that people noticed my story makes me glad to be alive. Been having a hard time, due to adult bullshit. But everyone who liked, I truly thank you for taking a moment of your time to show your appreciation.

"some people's brains aren't whired for books, useless information and school" as someone with ADHD I'd like to say YES THANK YOU!!!!

Rin is the fictional character who’s voice bank was used in the song- but yea- I love this song a lot :3

The line “can you solve the equation of ratio to area, can you recall the dreams you had as a child?” Is meant to tell us that we’re drilled equations and told that’s all that matters and in the process we forget the fun innocent dreams we had as children.

welp everyone is now having a *BREAKDOWN* *BREAKDOWN* haha...I'm crying

This song it another cord when you Learn that suicide in school kids in Japan is really high. I can relate to it as someone with learning disabilities (autism, ADD and possible others too) I could get maths and I flew so high in science but then English just pulled my hair and stopped me going where I wanted to. I've been forced to grow up quickly and had to go through secondary school with the death of my dad and being put in an abusive foster home for a year, I was mentally crushed then I turned 18 and had to get my own place and be an adult, nothing prepared me for that yet I'm free now and even engaged and planning to move from the UK to Sweden. So if anyone reading my comment is having a bad time, I promise you it'll get better you just have to hold on a tough it out... I've been so far gone that I overdosed but I got medical help when I came back to my senses it was the worst thing I have ever felt in my life, so please learn from my mistakes and don't go that far. 💜

This song hits so close to home

Becoming a teenager was tough, still is because when I became 13 I got depression. I do feel more like myself, it just sucks that it happens and school makes mental illness worse most of the time.

I like how grown ups expect big things from us, and then question why we act a certain way. I also dont know why they try teaching us all these positive things yet they end up ruining alot of things for us and end up crushing dreams, happiness, etc

As a teenager I listened to this song when I felt like screaming out and breaking because it didnt only relate to school for me but my home life as well. The goals and future that everyone expects and tries to push on you can be overwhelming and exhausting that sometimes you "put on that paper" and continue that way so that they leave you alone. Eventually it gets to the point where you ignore your dreams and do what they expect but never ever do that. Follow and achieve the dreams you want to and tear that paper off your face and show everyone that you wont be what they want you to be. That you will be you and they can't stop you!

Why am I disappointed in myself for being 5 mins late

I'm actually really glad that you liked this video. The song is so incredibly complex because not only does it have to do with the connection between students in school but also Mental Health. Children feel pressured into doing things a specific way. To be perfect but no one is perfect. Along with which a lot of children lose their individuality .Another sad thing is in certain parts of the world suicide in students are pretty high. Mental health issues especially in males is pretty high.

Ngl I might be into vocaloid now

Holy crap I was just listening to this- I used to listen to this song back in middle school when I didn’t relate to it as much, but when I listen to it now it really does hit different-

Me, a college student who just stayed up all night studying (mainly due to my fxxking procrastination) and saw this reaction pop up: (complicated feelings)

i choked on my ramen 🗿 I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE 😩 TURN IT UP 🗣 GO GO GO GO GO 💃

I seriously suggest you react to rolling girl by wowaka or, any of his songs sad he passed away hope he’s resting easy.

just some recommendations for you: Failure Girl (shippaisaku shoujo), fake smile (aisowarai) both by kairiki bear and donut hole by hachi

I listen to this song all the time. Students honestly need adults like you as their teachers dude- Like so much of society forget the time from when they were children themselves. They don't take the time to know how kids feel. They think that kids just go through a phase where they're depressed all the time. But in reality, they realize the more harsh realities of life. And they go through that "phase" because of society. They worry about what others think of them. They worry about the expectations put on them. They are constantly being compared to other kids, even their siblings. They worry about what their family or friends think of them. Society has just gotten worse over the years. If it's this bad for students now, I won't be surprised if suicide rates and bullying go up in the coming years. Thanks for making it this far.

Hello, veteran Neru fan over here. This song was one of the first I heard in Japanese and one that I probably still listen to at least once in a while. Normally I feel empathy with the songs, Neru has been a great factor that helped me to understand and vent with his music This song has a special place in my heart, because it describes perfectly everything that happens and what I still suffer from the current educational system They were difficult days, I cried listening to it, I sang it from the depths of my lungs, it has accompanied me for so long that without it I feel that something would be missing in me.

I especially love the lyrics because the word for "solving" and "untying/loosening" are the same, and it just makes it more poetic And while I was no longer a student when this song came out, it took me back to those days 😭

If you haven't already, can you react to Useless Child? I dunno if you did yet, so I'll have to double check! ^^'

OH MY GOD THIS SONG i used to play this song on repeat 6th-8th grade and being miserable 😭 this year has been a blow to the fuckin brain because of distance learning and hearing this song again made me tear up :,D i’m really glad u reacted to this song seeing u get excited over the really good parts made me excited!!

I dropped outta high school last year and this song still hits You work harder and harder only to just become a failure in life Its all the stress, pressure, and expectations of having to have a successful life get a good education, get a job, move away but what's in between is hardly spoken about one wrong move, one wrong answer and your life goes to shit Graduate and get a job first; live after

I squealed when I saw he posted this. Also, side note. I think the chair at the end showed that he hung himself because of all the string and chair imagery.

This is nostalgia for me, it's still timeless to me. Everytime I listen to it it's still as good as I first listened to it. 💕

I like how your reaction videos aren't just reactions and you give explanations. Also, one of the best things about songs like these or Vocaloid songs in general is that they can be interpreted in so many ways and this song resonates with so many people and their perspective on it depended on their experiences and their own lives. I've seen the comment section for this song from the fansubs and a fan cover and the amount of people sharing their terrible experience as a student or their feelings about life in general is sad but the thing is, I could somewhat relate haha. My brother was the one who found the song on youtube years ago and told me "Listen to this song, it reminded me of you." hahaha

"better not be sad" famous last words when listening to a vocaloid song

It's crazy The social expectations we are supposed to meet at such a young age and how if we don't some of us are labeled as failures. I remember hearing this song for the first time and actually was surprised they did a song like this regarding this topic. It almost felt like we were heard in some way, in a shape I suppose.

"Better not be sad" Me: *who's listened to this song many times that I haven't kept count* oh boy, you don't know what's coming. This song is just something I listen to all the time and knows the struggles as a sudent right now.

I've listened to this song over and over again that it just numbed me out to a point where I'm just like damn, this is what our society is. I feel like most adults just ignore these issues in children/students because they think we're looking for attention but I think that's the start of everything. What are we supposed to do if we can't ask for help and nobody thinks our mental health is relevant? So really, most of us just suffer in silence and that's when depression hits hard and suicide becomes home, more than just an everyday thought. It's sad how so many people succumb to that kind of end because they can't take it anymore, depression is, in fact, real and it can happen to anyone no matter the age. Stay safe and make sure to take breaks when everything becomes too much and by the way amazing work on the video Mooshi, I hope you make it to Minami soon! Or maybe not I'm not forcing you!

This song always makes me cry...

Im honestly so happy you knew what I meant. To know one of my idols knows what being trapped feels like makes me feel 10x better.

I resonate with this song so much! I love learning, but school made me feel so miserable all the time because I just cannot learn the way or at the pace that my teachers, my school, my friends, or even my family expect me to! Even though I value my abilities and talents out of the school environment, the expectations of everyone on the system made me feel worthless and dumb as fuck.

WHOA that's such a great analysis..! I never thought about the meaning of the mv in itself. its really interesting to see how you interpreted the song and the video!!

I love this song! So glad your going to analysis this!

"My child is completely fine." Miss, your children's comfort songs are rolling girl, lost one's weaping and egoist. Do you still think that your kid is ok?!

Shooshimooshi you HAVE to react to Miyashita's Unknown Mother Goose song(cover). It's bomb!!!!

I am so damn happy your reacting to this song. The emotion put into it aee just astounding, and the lives this song have touched are to many to count.

Aaaa I always loved this song I'm so happy you reacted to it

"Its better not be sad" Neru:hold my flying tables.

Thank you for making this, the things that you said and talked about at the end really makes sense.

i loved this song! im so happy that you reacted to it!

Neru back again that song helped me a lot when i had social problems in school so i'm glad that you react to it congrats on 20 k °^°

I remeber listening to this song like in 4th grade never understood it until i grew up its like what most people say the more you grow then more you are exposed to the real world. Pretty depressing but its the truth

This is one of my favorite songs, it's helping me cope with my mental struggles. Thanks for reacting to this!

yooo you dont know how incredibly happy i am that you are reacting to this song! this song was honestly my comfort song as a kid and hearing your insight on it just reopened my whole childhood

Yes~! I've been wanting you to cover this song~! This song describes the feeling of... all of the pressure, the- everything. The person screaming out in the MV was all about him when he finally realized that he had no reason to live, like there is nothing left for him to do in life because he had cast away all of his dreams for himself for the sake of school. He might be in middle school based on his uniform, so maybe 13 - 15? Knowing that he only realized this now, he broke down and started yelling things like, 'We're supposed to be grown up, but what the hell is that anyway?!' and 'I don't know what I'm gonna do for the rest of my life when I threw my dreams away!'. He found himself stuck in a situation where he didn't know what to do with himself, having had a personality and life built off of school and grades. When he says, "This assignment today is about quirkless me", he's referring to the fact that he finds that there is literally nothing going on for him in life from his perspective. Kind of like those, 'What do you wanna be when you grow up' assignments that you'd get occasionaly. He finds it hard to write anything about himself and his dreams, hence the blank sheet of paper showing his 'quirkless self'. Okay, that was a lot. No one actually reads the crap that I comment, so who cares.

I had to stop and take a moment when I first saw the notif, really excited that you chose to react to this song! I'm not sure if someone's requested it yet but I really recommend the MILGRAM project by Deco*27, the songs and MVs are both interesting and the theories people have created for them are really well thought out and enjoyable to read

YES YES IM SO EXCITED! I love the way you view these kinds of videos :DD

I'm so glad I found this channel, I've been wanting someone to do reaction videos to vocaloid songs since middle school

I really feel this because yeah...I'm in my last year of highschool and you practically speak every doubt in my mind rn. And i feel helped. thanks

This song always makes me emotional every time I listen to it. I don't really have the same situation as the song at school, but I love the guitar, so I keep listening to it lol.

yes yes yes, love this song for the vibes, damn i subbed to your channel and now i be watching your videos to find good japanese songs to listen to.

really.... kinda teared up watching this video This year was one of the hardest times of my life (it wasnt cuz of covid , but i dont really want to rant it here )and i really broke down after that This song was one of the few songs that kept me going im just really glad that ur reacting to this thank you

I really wanted this to be reacted to by him, I'm so happy that he finally did 😊 Thank you Mr.Mooshi (^w^)

YESSSS. I AM IN CLASS RIGHT NOW. And goddamn I relate to this song....hard- Actually, recently I almost dropped out of school, I’m 13-

Omg I binged this song so hard back then. I'm so happy you reacted to it!

i love the vibe that your really understanding the song and vibing with it at the same time.

Me: So you ready? Mooshi: Yes *Bacterial Contamination starts playing* Mooshi: oh this is nice so far- oh uhm nevermind

"A bunch of chairs..." Ah yes. A Neru trademark.

aaaa I don’t usually comment but I really enjoy your videos and especially this one !! you said exactly what most people going through this think and that made me feel less lonely !! kinda cheesy but thank you for the content !! ❤️❤️❤️🥺

Oh this is epic. Lovely. I really like this song a lot and I'm happiness u listened to this

You have just convinced me on doing what I wanna do once I graduate next year. I'mma take a year to improve on art and see if I can make it work, if not I'll go to college. But I'm positive I can make this work XDDD Your videos always come at a good time lol

I'm in my mid 20s and this song still hits me hard. And what you said about slowing down and re-evaluating everything was true for me. I myself just went with the flow and did everything expected of me. I half-assed all of it and got through it somehow. And then right after finishing a degree, it was like I hit a brick wall of realization. I looked back at what I've been doing and literally thought "what the fuck am I doing with my life? I can't even paint a picture of my future in the direction I'm headed."

YO IM SO GLAD UR REACTING 2 THIS ITS ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SONGS !!!!!!

Broo I love this song sm 😼 You're a great RU-vidr , glad you're finally getting recognised!! :)

I remember the first time I listened to this song. After I finished it, I just sat in my bed staring at the ceiling and it took me a few minutes to register that I was crying. great video as always! ... Also, if you're interested, you should react to Alice of Human Sacrifice. From what I know, the song was based off of a real life event and I find it incredibly interesting.

See this song I love and relate to. It takes my everyday feelings and turns it into a catchy tune 😁

Love your vids man... keep up the good work! and keep being yourself too :D

This song always gives me chills and flash backs of school

Oh god I had to make a separate comment just to talk about the whole "go out of high school straight into college with your major" bit. It sucks ass. The worst part is that, if you can't afford to take a break, you're going to get swept into the system no matter what. It all just rolls onto what you can afford and if you can find a good job after it. love living in a *society*

shooshiMooshi: Uploads a video Notifications: *Let's notify her 5 hours later*

I LOVE THS SONG SO MUCH THANK YOU!!❤️❤️❤️🥺

I just discovered your channel today and my god I loved your reactions! I love how you actually analyze and interpret in each video

Omg memories 😳

I clicked as fast as if this was a new kairiki bear song, because I love this song +_+ PD: circles (by Kira) is a good song, but it’s Gumi english

This song is so raw with emotion that I still get the same goosebumps I got when I heard this for the first time. Powerful stuff man

I first heard this song in middle school, and it helped me through many tough times. Kinda forgot about it, but this video brought back a lot of nostalgia. Thanks for the video :)

HOLA, NECESITO AYUDA EN ENCONTRAR UNA CANCIÓN DE VOLACOID. I NEED HELP TO FIND A VOCALOIDS SONG. ESP: lo único que recuerdo es EL VIDEO y trataba de dos amigos que iban a la escuela y se sentaban uno al lado del otro, poco a poco se van haciendo más amigos y blabla pero uno MUERE y queda su asiento vacío del lado de la ventana con un florero y flores, y el o la amiga que queda vivo/a llora porque lo extraña, AYUDA PLS. ENG: i can only remember the VIDEO of this song, which it was about two school friends that sit next to eachother and every day they talk more and get more close together, but one day one of them DIES and it the school leave his/her seat with flowers on top, and him/her friend cries because they miss them, HELP ME PLEASE.

You should listen to “Your a useless child” by kikuo, the beat is more vibrant but the lyrics are really dark, there are a ton of fan theories for this

I LOVE LOST ONES WEEPING SO SO MUCH ITS SUCH A MOOD I LISTENED TO IT SO MUCH THAT I CRIED ONE TIME

I was one of those people who till high school thought I knew what I want to do with my life. But in high school I realized it wasn't for me and I felt so lost. I always said I'll go to university but I never knew what to study and I really said it just cause I thought it was expected of me. At the end of high school I got depressed and after graduating with bad grades I took a year off which turned into 3 years off. Now I have a place to study, not uni, but I'm still so badly depressed I haven't been able to attend this autumn. I feel like a failure. It means so much to hear you talk about how everyone should take the time that they need. Right now my life is not worth living, but I try to convince myself that future will be. And that some day I'll be happy that I kept myself alive. I really love this song. It hits so deep. I kept telling everyone this version of myself that I thought they wanted to hear for so long I don't know how to be me anymore. From here I also found one of the saddest sentences: It doesn't matter anymore. I hope I'm not at that point yet. I hope my life matters. Sorry if anyone read this whole thing. I'm just shouting into the void.

I know this gonna ended up with noone reading but... here's some of the stories about my friends note: I live in Thailand with "major" high school systems. it's kinda like collage major where you can choose your overall subject to study. there's science major (learns a buttload of science and math. perfect for doctors and engineers) language major (focused on learning third language of student's choice. I'm also in this major learning Chinese) and sci-language major. which is like a middle ground of other 2 majors I have a bunch of friends in science major who only picked sci because their parants said so, or they wanted to fufill their parant's dreams of seeing them becoming a doctor/engineer when I walked pass their classes, they are always reciting physics equations, taking a nap because they don't get enough sleep or staring blankly at their lecture. that asmosphere always give me, an outsider, they're turned into lifeless robots but luckily, one friend who didn't truly enjoy that like of learning decided to move classes to sci-language major. props to her for fiding her passion (which is becoming a film director)

Hey you, yes you, the one who’s chasing your dreams. To you, who keep falling down more than anyone else. To you, who keep struggling more than anyone else. I’m sure you’ll get stronger and stronger. Even if “they” mock you, even if “they” laugh at you. If you ever think of being “unfortunate” just remember me, the true “unfortunate” one. Just remember that somewhere out there, i exist. I’m standing here, living, smiling and laughing even under those extreme circumstances. There are times when i was about to give up (suicide) but i don’t think of it as an escape. Just think of me, broken leg and arm, going through many operations cus if bullies. I’m sure you all can do it, i know that you all are strong enough, just need a bit push. So here i am to give you that push. Go toward your future, be optimistic. I think the main character of a story is the one who gets laughed at. Not the one who laughs at other. And so be it, be the MC of your own story, write down your own life and start a fresh start. From your 12 y.o friend (?) out there.....

Man thank you. I feel like every video you post I Realise how far I have come as a person sooo in Other-words thank Youu..... and keep up the amazing work 💖💖

I was waiting for you to get to this one omgg
