Creepy video and average song.

Yeah, the video was kinda creepy but for no good reason and it also lacked direction. Why make a creepy video for a rather upbeat song in the first place? Plus the song was not very enjoyable for me either. But at least the video was kinda unique.
I probably regret this post by now.

Pretty much this. It was just average overall. Maybe if they had done something different with the song and given the imagery more of a meaning, it would've been a little better.

Oh well. At least it's rather WTF-ery, that's for sure.

I just a LukaxGakupo version of this song, and it is...AWESOME. I think it was just okay with Miku, but Gakupo version is sooo good. Luka is good too

The music was a bit boring (but with a fitting text), but I really liked the video, probably my most favourite Miku music video.

It was not an upbeat song in the least. The whole song is describing her pain and how she goes mad after being bullied and getting excluded with no one to turn to. Downbeat was what it was!

Obligatory comment to indicate there are people who like and understand this song.

Seriously, what's wrong with you guys. It's obvious that the one who made this really wanted it to look awful because that's what this song is trying to express. It's about someone who gets bullied, of course the video won't contain pretty flowers and a perfect anime girl.

Right. It just shows what being bullied really is like. It makes you feel like a monster, a disgusting person without any dignity, resulting in Miku killing herself. (->Skeleton) That's when she sings 'The Bacterial Contamination is gone, I'm feeling much better'

I personally didn't like the music, but video and message etc was great.

Wow, it's been on MAL for three years and I just found it? Can't believe it.
Great song, great lyrics and bloody great video. Not really creepy but rather disturbing. I like Maeda "Deino" Koutarou so I've been following his work and watched it shortly after it was uploaded on his YouTube channel.

There is such thing as shit taste. Only idiots think that every "work of art" should have the same value.

Persona anime are good. Deal with it.

That was pretty dark from the usual Miku videos and songs. She looked like she was fused with an inspector something.

Really interesting song. The visuals make a lot of sense as you basically become dirtied and treated like a pest that people do not want to look at. There's quite some symbolism with the bullies being sightless with only a mouth and Miku having her sight yet no mouth.

Nice song, nice clip, but this was NOT avant-garde or dementia by any means. Fits in horror and psychological rather due to the topics it deals with.
