I don't enjoy the fact that this music video exists at all, let alone it being so popular and highly rated, with over 250 million views and 2.7 million likes on YouTube since its premiere in November 2019. The song it's based on tells the story of a young man who fell in love with a mysterious woman possessing an aloof personality and suicidal tendencies. Although they seemingly enter a relationship, she keeps pushing the man away and shuts him out, wanting to "end it all". The man is frustrated at his powerlessness but chooses to believe in a good resolution until he caves and develops suicidal tendencies of his own—and that's when the two finally manage to connect for real.

I'd first like to say I am kinda surprised no one has written a review for this, I am also surprised that of all things that brought me here, it was MAL auto-recs. Maybe this is just a hidden gem in a hidden gem, even though this garnered 240M+ views on YT... First thing's first, the MV, in itself, is incredible. It utilises the correct aesthetic and design for the coherence of its intended message. You will see characters that look a little distorted but are very much humans that would directly present them undergoing internal distress. In other words, it's not moe x psychological, it's reality x psychological. There are some other features of the visual representation—like the splashes of pink on eyes and hands—I could not quite make out for myself, but if I had to hazard a guess, it'd…
