Sick. Now I wonder if all of these would be different if the first trial result were different...

Damn, that's harsh... I wonder if the idea is all everyone's reasons are gonna be so sympathetic? Not that it excuses murder, but as someone who dealt with kinda similar circumstances (parents became disinterested as I got older and still had development issues) I felt for him. Rewatching his videos with all the pieces together is interesting too.

God i LOVE how they executed this. It's a bit upsetting that this most likely means that those lost aren't getting music videos, but it's worth it considering what they're giving us.

The atmosphere in this is amazing. I love the use of white noise. I love how much attention to detail went in showing just how destroyed haruka's body was--you can see his ankle bones in the beginning, then in the second shot you can see his spine visible through his neck, then in the 3rd shot you can see how much his collarbone is sticking out. And then zoom in to his lifeless face at the end, cheeks hollowed out...
They wanted to make this as horrific as possible, and i think they succeeded in creating that stomach drop feeling. The cherry on the top is muu blaming es, *us*, at the end for what happened.
Our votes led to this.

I can't wait for shidou's and mahiru's videos to be released!!

Ooohhh it's really over huh... What a devastating end to Haruka's time in Milgram, despite Muu being there it still felt so incredibly lonely and cold. I don't even know how to put my thoughts properly into words right now, this was too harrowing. The animation, sound design and voice acting all came together really beautifully though, in a morbid and haunting kind of way. This was the perfect way to capture the quiet and slow death he suffered I think. It felt like real footage, a real consequence of the guards' actions and a real decision made by Haruka himself. There's just something very human about all of this, maybe because it hurts so much.

Heartbroken that this is the last we'll see of him, I really do think Haruka deserved better. His crimes were obviously wrong but with how everyone in his life failed him it's no wonder things turned out this way. I love his songs so much - 'Jakuniku Kyoushoku' introduced me to Milgram and I listened to both his solos a lot before actually getting into the series - and I'll forever be sad that there won't be any more of them. Shun Horie has such a lovely voice and his performances have been amazing.

At least he's in a better place now, hopefully. In his funeral sprite on the website he looks happy, like he's finally somewhere and someone he always wanted to be.
