I remember when I was in my mid 20s and my mother yelled at me; "Michael, you have not suffered enough!" It was yelled at me in a tone of pure venom. I thought it was a terrible thing to say at the time, a lot of people have agreed with me that it was a terrible thing to say. The reality is this, she was right, I had not suffered enough. Later in life after a decade or so of real suffering, I realised how much I had grown due to this period of terrible suffering. It had made me a better person in so many ways, it made me so much more resilient, empathetic, knowledgeable and wiser. I can cope with so much in life now and I can problem solve the human condition so much more than I could, suffering is good thing, as long as it doesn't totally break you. I feel for those that are never free from the torment of suffering, or have never experienced real suffering. Have a good day everyone. :)

Hey nice cityscape shots at the end, I just screenshotted a bunch to practice drawing I liked your compositions

DO NOT MAKE HAIBANE RENMEI MAINSTREAM

It’s always a relief to see the title, “Suffering is not Purpose.” I wish I learned this little lesson in the darker times of my life, and even now in this slump I’ve been getting through. Thank you for reminding me once again Professor. Your videos and your ramblings is always appreciated for this old man.

The second part of the Video was the Best.

Ok after actully watching the vid I love it. I spent 1000 of hours drawing in the last years and I got some atention and a Galerie exhibition but I only wanted more reconniton and the fun and inspiring other gone on the sidelines. I just texted somebody if he could help me because your vid. Thank you very much♡

Omg... she's literally cyberpunk harley quinn

can anyone spoil the story for me

I just watched haibane recently, who woulda thunk angel beats was a rip off

I am happy(?) to see an hour-long video about a show that had scenes that left me feeling deep, cold dread and alienation far more effective than any overtly horror media. This stupid show is so emotionally brutal.

For me, it was a mix of things that shouldn't go together. Virus, monsters, apocalypse, ancient samurai, modern times... Any two of these would have probably worked, but altogether it felt like a jumbled mess. The PlayStation 2 graphics were pretty rough at times... well most of the time haha. However, I could have forgiven it, if everything else was good.

it wasn't too much, i appreciate your perspective at the

Never heard of this anime before but glad you introduced me to it here 🙏

Endless life is no different than eating the same thing everyday for every meal. Even your favourite food would become stale.

next texhnolyze the greatest ending in all anime

Dude! Psycho pass season one might be the best anime I've ever seen

I enjoy yar dramatic philosophical endings. Shows me I'm not the only one getting lost in those

love is something that has no 1 answer. We all perceive it in our own ways, and we discover it through our own means and experiences. Even now as a 21 y/o man who has been single for 99% of his entire life, I have not lost the faith and hope that I and many others will meet someone we can truly say we love. For me personally, I feel it boils down to simply having the human compassion to give someone a chance, rather than immediately getting uncomfortable and brushing someone off.

I swear I always see your videos right when I need them in crucial parts of my life and it's been so worth it every time in helping me to change my perspectives and push myself forward in a positive way.

"Let Love be your shield, and Hate you sword" - Me, like 6 months ago

I want to give you some quotes, they helped me maybe they can help you. "The Therapist seeks to help the other person to the point of where he can move forwards in life, solve his problems and overcome the obstacles independently. The task of the Therapist is not to cure, but to be a guide, friend and interpreter to people on their journey through their private hell." Rollo May "There is only one way and that is your way; there is only one salvation and that is your salvation. Why are you looking for help? Do you believe that help will come from outside? What is to come will be created in and from you. Hence look into yourself. Do not compare, do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfill the way that is in you." Carl Jung.

I must think by "merging consciousness" about the thing with my voices and me. I hear mostly my "lead voice" among countless ones that said hello", and will say "hello". I only hear their voice, they hear all my thoughts.....kinda onesided, but....like i hear all the time thoughts from the ppl around me. Very often when they start to speak, i hear my thoughts out of their mouth, with their voice.... most embarrassing for myself....your thoughts is the one thing with the most privacy whatssoever.... so, excellent job done with this vid! :3

It makes me really happy to see that there are other people who love Haibane Renmei so much. So thank you for your video. I hope you can see for yourself one day that you are good just the way you are. Fun fact: I knew that there would be a video about Haibane Renmei here at some point. We just had to wait a few years. ;)

Such a based selection of B roll. I think that’s what B roll means. I dunno.

It isn’t, but without suffering our lives would be boring honestly Happiness and suffering, generally- all the negative and positive things must coexist to make our existence complete

Pretty relatable :(

(watched till the end) even though this video didn't get some insane amount of views in a day, I hope your realization and things have become better after researching, writing, and working on this project. I know I've never commented before but I just wanted to say I've always loved your videos and I can really see the work you always put into them, even if the details or edits may not be huge and showy, it does add so much to your videos :)) Even if youtube does screw you over and give you extremely miniscule amounts of views, that doesn't take away the value of your work and your value as a creator on this platform

Someone send Gege Akutami this video

Nice! haibane renmei, the best anime released the year i was born. now the only shows you haven't talked about from my top ten are Mawaru Penguindrum and Clannad 😂 gem of a channel Edit: and texhnolyze. Also yoshitoshi abe work, with chiaki j konaka who helped him with lain as well

I appreciate this. It's thematic to current events in my life, and helpful in supplementing my changing self-perception. I've realized lately that I constantly, subconsciously, judge myself for every little thing. I don't have to do that, and I'm learning how not to little by little.

To be honest, I've been feeling exactly the same lately. This video gave me just what I needed, I understand that this is not what you may mean to do now but also, I feel like I have to write this 'cause maybe this will let you see how things have changed since that video that flopped... I'm glad to hear/see this, I really have been having those hints about changing, but I fell in a limbo where I don't even know if there's an exit, this video finally helped me find it, it was so hard for me to reach it for some reason, even when I knew exactly what I had to do to get out but once again falling into selfish thoughts when I tried it. Worse of all, I didn't actually had someone who I could ask for help, so I thought the best was to give up. Now you just come with a one hour video just to tell me how an anime I had no idea that existed already did all of that + your own experience to fully emphatize with... Literally the help I never asked for, but that anyways came here without even knowing they would help somebody by simply existing and doing nothing else than just appearing on recomended videos among non related videos that don't even scratch the surface of what this anime is nor even relate to the title of the video. Just chance right? All this big text just to say, thanks man, you just saved me and you don't even know how or why, we could even just leave it as another vent text in the comentary section of the video, but yet, to me it means much more than just that, thank you dude

1:02:52 the world is changed by long serieses of normal things which cumulate in a world which is entirely changed.

HAIBANE RENMEI????? LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I just finished watching your video for the third time and I am overwhelmed yet comforted. I have never felt so located by any discussion before. The analysis and your experience capture everything I have been feeling lately. It's an attempt from a fleeting moment of overwhelming anxious adrenaline that I am writing this. I am yet to reach out to people and ask for help, being heard. I need to start voicing myself and thanking you for this video seems like the right start. I will be eagerly waiting for your next work, whatever form it takes. Take care.

I relate to you tremendously on this video, this need to prove that you're valuable, the need to prove that everyone was wrong about you. I used to get called dumb and idiot all throughout school so I became a smart-ass and a intellectual dick, by learning tons of Philosophy, so I can intellectually crush anyone, who opposes me, to prove everyone that I wasn't dumb. Yet in the end, the Validation I sought so long for left me more unvalidated than ever, if that's a word. I couldn't accept me for me. I saw this title from scrolling on youtube, I didn't watch the video, because I almost cried from the title alone and got all I needed from it, and I hope it helps you, when you are going through rough times or feel you aren't enough. "You don't need to justify your life. If you're here, you should be." Sorry if this didn't make any coherent sense.

I'm so happy someone is talking about haibane renmei in 2024, thank you professor

having our teeth clenched throughout the Haibane Renmei part means we've got soooome work to do - looking at our art now like are we healing or perpetrating suffering ?? its an ongoing conversation so can it be both depending on the point in which its viewed? "the universe of images - in which action and agony go endlessly round in circles" <- phrase that been running through our head for a solid week

Thanks for your analyses AND for bringing up anime that I am totally not going to binge this weekend….

put this on randomly while working on a haibane renmei cosplay of all things..... the way my jaw dropped 2 minutes in when you revealed what the video essay was about :O

👍🐻👍

Honestly I'm bad with words more so now that I'm struggling with mutism as a way to cope with life. On the off chance you see this some of your content has reminded me both that I need to be stronger for those who need me and because things can get better if I take one step at a time. People don't go hollow.

You dont know how much this video means to me. I picked up this anime on disc a few years back and had yet to watch it but this video seemed super enticing. Ive been struggling for a long long time with motivation and joy and overall just contentment and it felt like this video was a step by step guide thank you it was wonderful.

Please don’t ever stop doing what you love! I always look forward to your videos and it helped me learn so much throughout the years

I thought this was about Homura

The one who's gonna love is really lucky to have you

Babe wake up new professor viral video

The future we're creating.

I love how most sci-fi dystopias have excesive capitalism and 'wage slaves' but it already exists in a lot of areas in our current world. As well as people and corporations with a lot of power. Most people only do their work pecause of the money to survive and a bit of fun if you're lucky and the escape in forms of movies, social media and youtube.

I can totally understand wanting to make something completely alone. I’m working on a project myself and when I was considering how to make it I kept insisting on making the sound myself even though I have no experience doing that and I already have so much more to do and it’s been a real struggle coming to terms with the fact that I might have to ask for help. I want the project to be mine and mine alone but that’s just not feasible or efficient….. anyway thanks for the extra push in the right direction 😅

This anime speaks to me on an emotionally level I didn't even think possible.
