Ruru’s overall story lasts about eleven minutes of time including this and her episode. In that, artiswitch manages to make a heartbreakingly realistic character that you can’t help but feel for.
I relate with her on a spiritual level, the feeling of hating everything and anything even a little bit and nobody there to understand you, even your parents don't understand and might even call you sick once you start to speak up about your problems inside, the thought school making your stomach turn when hearing about it, every person there making you feel inferior to them just because you get low numbers on a sheet of paper, the feeling of wanting to live in your own world where nothing and no one can disturb you while your imagination controls everything is peaceful to me, if only things could be that simple in real life Edit : for the " sick " part they meant that in a really disgusting way like I just threw up all over the floor
You might be 'sick', though. I'm not saying that you're wrong, or bad, or at fault. But there is such a thing as mental 'illness', and people can be born with higher or lower odds of getting a mental illness. It may be worth seeing your doctor to get refferred to a psychologist, not because you need to be a certain way or because you need "fixing" (that's a very toxic way of describing treatment). But because a psychologist might be able to help you hate less things or hate things less. It can help make your life easier, more bearable, more enjoyable. You don't owe anyone anything, you didn't choose to be born. But you are here now, and everyone deserves a chance at happiness. Happiness, happiness, Ruru was unsure about it too. What happiness is and how to reach it is different for many people. School really sucks, I felt that way too. Getting out of bed and dragging yourself over there just because you know that people will get angry at you if you don't. But if you haven't finished school yet, then you probably have so much left to explore and try- you can find that elusive thing somewhere. And don't forget that temporary happiness is also worth a lot! Like watching new Artiswitch content or seeing a really cute dog on a walk :)
I understand that feeling all too well myself. That maybe if I could disappear into my own little world everyone will be happier. But it’s just how Ruru noticed that the witch that granted her wish was upset. There will be someone that resonates and understands you perfectly. And that person will make your world a little bit brighter. Trust me, there will be a person that will just waltz into your life suddenly and want to just be there beside you in your little world. There is also nothing wrong in speaking your mind, and nothing wrong in saying I need help. But I understand that maybe hard to do. So there is no rush to force yourself to do that. All I ask is that you try. Try to find the tinniest of reasons to like something or reason to stay in this world we all share. Ruru left her world of darkness for Nina. So maybe just take a moment to yourself when you can and remind yourself that you’re ok. If you also want to talk, I don’t mind flooding the replies here
"I hate this world. Even so, I think it's beautiful. There are countless things too sad to bear, and irrational things I can't forgive, but I don't regret being brought to this world as a person rather than a flower, a bird, or a star." - from Sugaru Miaki's light novel, 'Pain Pain Go Away'
Oh... I am so glad that Ruru found a reason to come back into the world. I really hope that Nina finds out someday. She deserves to know that she *did* save Ruru, after all.
As someone that is still struggling with finding something to live for. Seeing this, is truely describes how I get out of those dark moments. It’s hard, the world seems like everything is against you. That maybe it’s better to disappear. Trust me, it hurts a lot. You can’t help but think that sometimes. But if you can find just one reason to stay around a little longer? Cling to it. Be it a game, a movie coming out, a friend or even a meal that you need try. Cling on to it - even if it just means you can stay in this world a little longer. It gives you time to heal and find that long lasting reason to stay. Currently, my reason is to wait for a video game to be finally released and play it fully. And by then, I’m certain I can another reason stay longer. Thank you for making this series, for I truely adore it.
Maybe this could be a good reason to not disappear - helping others find something to live for. You can help people who’ve struggled with the same thing you struggled with, and through that, you can also help yourself. That idea… I like it. But always keeps your mind open - I promise you, every good question has a good answer. There’s no answer that’s impossible to reach. One day, if we keep going, we _will_ know everything. And for us individuals, we surely can know enough to satisfy us at some point - the information we can draw our answers from is practically endless with possibilities. It will be enough, whatever answer you may require. Because the world is so much bigger.
I really hope you can heal and I believe wholeheartedly that you already have everything within yourself to archive it. You’ve been incredibly strong and just this post shows that you are loving, caring and worthy of love, peace, consideration and support. I hope you are reciving help from the people who love you and from committed proffesionals (if you haven’t found those people yet, please keep trying a little longer, they are out there ready to help you)
Oh you just knew that Ruru's afterstory was gonna be a really good one. Well in any case. "Live another day." That's a quote this one made me think of.
This was the character and chapter that really made me sit up and take notice of Artiswitch. I think all of us were worried for Ruru. The final episode, seeing her again was such a feeling of happiness and relief.
The fragile threads of Ruru's past woven into each of her 'I hate ___' sentences tell so much. I love the way you potrayed how hard it is for her to exist because nobody tried to understand her, to see her (except 'Ms.Witch', that is). Your way of storytelling is wonderful and I am honestly pleasantly surprised at the ending. It gives hope to those who deeply relate to Ruru, gives a chance that, just maybe, even if you still hate the world, there are some beautiful things worth living for.
Okay that very very last line made me cry. Ruru isn’t me, but she is a lot of my very good friends I have had over the course of my life. It hurts not being able to help them. Im glad they have all stayed in this world even though they hate it.
I'm from Taiwan. I'm deeply moved by your works and found comfort from them. I know that there are still people like me. Thank you, creators. I look forward to seeing more works and will continue to pay attention to them.❤️
Hmm... I think there is a reason. Tiara, unlike all the other characters, didnt fight a conflict that came from her, but Saki. The musicia girl needed to change to be herself, the dessigner boy, the dancer, Ruru... but unlike everyone else, Tiara was a well adjusted individual that got backstabbed by Saki; she needed to let go of Saki but she was fine on her own and she didnt had to change herself to be "her". Meanwhile Saki is more simmilar to the main characters of other episodes, she has an underlying problem with herself wich drives her to manipulate others. All the main characters "lie" to themselves somehow. Saki lies to herself thinking she is the one who achieved success so she is better than Tiara and deserves more, but Tiara was honest all along. She loves Saki, and moves on from Saki. Saki is the one that needs to reevaluate her story, not Tiara.
I am so relieved Ruru came back. It made me actually cry and emotional when I though she died…but she came back I’m the happiest right now… as someone who kins her very much, it gives me hope to live. I love Ruru.
I liked it before even getting the chance to watch it.... So curious >< Edit: Finally watched. I love how the wish is not really a magical unchangeable reality. It is actually a choice that the person would pursue. We can see past characters do that too, having more confident to be who they want to be. Here, Ruru gets the closure of being okay to hate things. And that I think is very beautiful.
She's the character I relate the most in Artiswitch. You see, the "I hate___" part is something similar to what I think of the most things in this world. All seems unfair, cruel, lame, boring and useless. I think that being alone, away from all people is the ideal scenario to me, as human beings, society, heat, ideals, motivation, processes and many other things are greatly unbearable. However, just like Ruru could see other sides from the things she hates in the end, plus the realization she maybe liked Ms. Witch, I can still see some little things that keep me going. I'd say nature and art are the things that make me still alive: music, rain, paintings, fictional worlds, fantasy, imagination... because, honestly, the real world in itself is utmost terrible. Ruru, my beloved, I get you!
WHY IS SHE SUCH A MOOD AAAAAA I love the way she took it, everything around us might be nothing but annoyance at first glance, but once you get used to it, it gets thay beauty you can start to like. IM SO HAPPY SHE'S BACK AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I'm happy that we finally saw her go in depth of what she likes and not just simply and endlessly state things as " I hate this. " " I like this. " the part whe she said " Everyone must be happy now that I'm gone. " I certainly am Ruru.. I'm happy you feel at ease and in peace now. This is such an amazing and bittersweet story♡
Ruru's story is incredibly relatable and I'm glad the team of Artiswitch was able to be honest throughout her story. I feel like most people are able to remember a time where they had thoughts similar to Ruru- I know I have. Thank you Artiswitch for everything ♡
I was so unsure where you would take the "epilogue" for Ruru, but I really like the direction it went! Kinda got some Neon Genesis Evangelion flashbacks there for a second as well, haha. (Which is a good thing, really.)
TW: abuse, depression, SH, sui* . . . . . . . Ruru was the most impactful character to me. She reminds me of myself when I was her age. 15 was when I realized I was being abused and when I my depression began. I also longed to exist in that peaceful void, free of the complexities of emotion. During my illness, I hurt myself and I hurt others. Existence was just feeling hurt and wondering why everything had to hurt. I've grown. I'm on an antidepressant that helps me and I'm gradually learning how to take care of myself, physically, mentally, and socially. Life is difficult to plan for when you didn't expect to still be around. You just take things one day at a time. I wanted to die when I was 15, and tried to a few times. Now, in less than two months, I will live to see my 20th birthday. It really does help to have things to look forward to.
Such amazing picture drama It really tells how at first glance her hate was like hatred but at the end where she showed kindness and love towards nina just shows that her hate is simple dislike and how she also accepted the world and starts to like it.
This is so good. The beginning gave me Distortion World and Cyrus Vibes, and I love how it's Nina she's thinking of in the end. That ending is so heartwarming.
Same! Cyrus is an awesome exemple of a character struggling because of society and how it works. He felt oppressed, disconected, as if he weren't welcome to this world and so, in the depths of his heart, he wished for it all to end. That's why he hated the very idea of spirit and the reason he looked for an empty world, with no other people around. As shown in Generations, the Distortion World was exactly what he looked for. An empty place, in where he wouldn't get judged or laughed at. I feel him and I feel Ruru.
I went through same emotions as Ruru since I was 15 too. 13 years later that feeling never subsided completely, but things do get better. There is something that will make living slightly better. Thank you for making this story, Artiswitch Team.
oh ruru, her story is very depressing. i love it. the thought when you are gone and thinking no one will miss you is what i also think of. also these are making me learn japanese bit by bit. thank you Artiswitch.
the message is very powerful. Neither you hate this world but at lest there's something or someone you love, and that's the meaning of LIFE (I'm very happy to see her back to the world
The world is beautiful. Humanity is what is awful, ugly, hostile. We often refer to the world including humanity, we see ourselves as embedded in a world shaped and controlled by other humans. But if it helps, you can try to fade all of that out. See yourself as part of the world, the world that is this planet, that is nature, that does not judge, but also doesn't care. The sun rises for no-one, in fact it doesn't really rise because it's the planet earth that moves. Pretty forest walks, broad and empty fields, the sky that I cannot (yet) capture in a painting because its beauty is so fast.
I know this wouldn't help Ruru, because she said that she also hates the blue sky. But maybe for someone it helps a little bit. Because I may not be the only one that feels better looking at it in this way.
I feel a little bad for Ruru, but at the same time I feel a little like her, I hope she finds everything she likes. Imagine if next season she becomes a witch like Nina 😳
I feel quite like Ruru in this situation, but no, 2:40 not everyone is happy that you are gone. Just know that sorrow doesn’t go away, it just bounces to another. If anyone is feeling that they should just go/pass, just know, you are needed. You are loved. You are special. You are not a nobody. And ALWAYS know, you can get help, you can cry, you don’t have to bottle it up! Again, you are loved
It just takes a single moment to effect someone's life. Her story is probably my favorite but they were honestly were all really good. I love to see another season. Good job creators! I can't wait to see the next one!
"Everyone must be happy that I am gone." Turning 28 this year and I still wonder about this. Would anyone miss me if I disappear? But...I still want to try and fight my depression. There are a few beautiful things in life.
I don’t remember what the classical piano piece In this is called, but my sister played it at my Uncle’s funeral since it was one of his favorites. He committed suicide. This was hard to watch for me.
I love and relate to Ruru so much! Her whole design and character is amazing and I can't wait to see her more! I also hope that she gets to meet the which again :) I can't wait for the new episodes and stories, thank u so much for creating these
These aren't tears... Im not crying.... I'm not sad.... I'm just glad there's someone i could relate to... From an anime.. it feels comforting, and validating, and calming....
るるちゃんがニーナちゃんのために自分の嫌いな世界でも戻って来てちょっとだけど好きかもしれなくなるの良い...
アニメ一気見しました。るるちゃんの最後傘を閉じたのは自分の手で自分の人生を終わらせたのだと思ったけど、最終話を見て人格を殺すというのと同じで「私の嫌いな私」を殺したのだと思いました。人生を終わらせようとしたけど魔女が救ったことによって“なくす”ものが変わったんだろうなと。「嫌い」と言いつつ、最初の頃とは違いもうずっと傘を閉じていて、前向きになれたんだろうなと思いました。このアニメ深い…
ニーナが悲しくならなくて良かった。るるがこの世界をほんのちょっぴり好きになってくれて良かった。

ルルちゃん15歳だったんだね
多分誰よりも繊細で、誰よりも自分に正直な子なんだろうなと思いました
そうか、ニーナとお別れした時に
もしニーナが魔女の顔をしていたら
るるちゃんは本当にあのまま消えていたかもしれないんだ…
4話では青空を嫌ってるから日傘をさして周りの世界をシャットダウンしてるけど、この話のるるちゃんは青空を嫌ってるけど自分を理解しようとしてくれたニーナが居るこの世界をちょっぴり好きなれた、だから日傘をささないで少しはこの世界を好きになろうとしてるのかな？
日差しが嫌いで日傘をさしてた。なのにこの回は日傘をさしてない。
つまりるるちゃんにとってニーナは太陽みたいな存在になったのかも
好きと嫌いが激しいるるちゃんは正直者で繊細だから、この描写を見ると嫌いと言いつつほの少し笑顔で前を向いて歩いてるのがまたいい🎀🤍
ニーナの優しさに救われたし、ニーナのために元の世界に戻ってくれたるるの優しさに凄く救われた😭✨
るるちゃん繊細でまっすぐですごく好き。ニナの行動でるるちゃんが世界をすこし好きになってくれたのうるっときた。次のお話も楽しみです。

Saki having a story instead of Tiara was a twist for me, but I’m excited nonetheless for the next one
ほんとに大好き
I'm from Taiwan. I'm deeply moved by your works and found comfort from them. I know that there are still people like me. Thank you, creators. I look forward to seeing more works and will continue to pay attention to them.❤️
interesting that they will be focusing on saki instead of tiara in the next ep :0
Hopefully we'll get an episode for each of them!
Hmm... I think there is a reason.
Tiara, unlike all the other characters, didnt fight a conflict that came from her, but Saki.
The musicia girl needed to change to be herself, the dessigner boy, the dancer, Ruru... but unlike everyone else, Tiara was a well adjusted individual that got backstabbed by Saki; she needed to let go of Saki but she was fine on her own and she didnt had to change herself to be "her".

Saki lies to herself thinking she is the one who achieved success so she is better than Tiara and deserves more, but Tiara was honest all along. She loves Saki, and moves on from Saki. Saki is the one that needs to reevaluate her story, not Tiara.
That is just my take, thought!
Besides, even Tiara declared she went to the witch "in the name of other person".
@@onemoregodrejected9369 oo that was a good take! i never thought about it like that, it makes sense now
私は彼を見るのが好きで、彼の顔が本当にここにいたいと思うフレームがあって、彼女はとてもかわいいです。
I am so relieved Ruru came back. It made me actually cry and emotional when I though she died…but she came back I’m the happiest right now… as someone who kins her very much, it gives me hope to live. I love Ruru.

Edit: Finally watched. I love how the wish is not really a magical unchangeable reality. It is actually a choice that the person would pursue.

One person can make such a difference. I’m glad Ruru found Nina.
She's the character I relate the most in Artiswitch. You see, the "I hate___" part is something similar to what I think of the most things in this world. All seems unfair, cruel, lame, boring and useless. I think that being alone, away from all people is the ideal scenario to me, as human beings, society, heat, ideals, motivation, processes and many other things are greatly unbearable.

I love the way she took it, everything around us might be nothing but annoyance at first glance, but once you get used to it, it gets thay beauty you can start to like.

Ruru's story is incredibly relatable and I'm glad the team of Artiswitch was able to be honest throughout her story. I feel like most people are able to remember a time where they had thoughts similar to Ruru- I know I have.
Thank you Artiswitch for everything ♡

Just like ruru i found something to cling to. Im glad we're both still here.

Que feliz me siento al ver qué Ruru sigue viva, ojalá y encuentre la felicidad en este mundo y que se vuelva a encontrar con Nina. 😭😭💟
The world is beautiful.
Humanity is what is awful, ugly, hostile. We often refer to the world including humanity, we see ourselves as embedded in a world shaped and controlled by other humans. But if it helps, you can try to fade all of that out. See yourself as part of the world, the world that is this planet, that is nature, that does not judge, but also doesn't care. The sun rises for no-one, in fact it doesn't really rise because it's the planet earth that moves.
Pretty forest walks, broad and empty fields, the sky that I cannot (yet) capture in a painting because its beauty is so fast.
I know this wouldn't help Ruru, because she said that she also hates the blue sky. But maybe for someone it helps a little bit. Because I may not be the only one that feels better looking at it in this way.
Are we going to finally have answers?!
Idk, but I'm ready, she's one of my favs (≧▽≦)
I feel a little bad for Ruru, but at the same time I feel a little like her, I hope she finds everything she likes.
Imagine if next season she becomes a witch like Nina 😳
I feel quite like Ruru in this situation, but no, 2:40 not everyone is happy that you are gone. Just know that sorrow doesn’t go away, it just bounces to another. If anyone is feeling that they should just go/pass, just know, you are needed. You are loved. You are special. You are not a nobody. And ALWAYS know, you can get help, you can cry, you don’t have to bottle it up! Again, you are loved
I was so worried for Lulu! I am glad she didn't really give up. She gives me hope. ❤️
お店の天気？がニーナのこころを表しているとしたら、一面雪景色にはどんな意味があるんだろう。
ルルちゃんの後日談よかった。
もしかして…あの子とこの子の関係性生まれる伏線？
"and goodbye me, the thing i hate the most." Suddenly,im a Ruru kinnie.
So we know Ru Ru is still alive and Saki also went to the shop @@ This gonna be interesting.
It just takes a single moment to effect someone's life. Her story is probably my favorite but they were honestly were all really good. I love to see another season. Good job creators! I can't wait to see the next one!
This one made me tear up. It hit home to me. Thank you for doing these picture dramas.
ノクターンか…いいですね。
This was the afterstory I was waiting for the most. It was very well done, thank you for keeping the world of Artiswitch alive!
Long time Not checked this channel and I have cried when I know ruru still alive, she so strong. I hope she will Meet Nina again
One of the most artistic way to portray DEPRESSION.
"I like the dark. It's quite"
Oh nooo knowing how young she is too... I'm tearing up
I love Ruru with all my heart
to have what you like you must be patient with what you hate
なぁ!!!なぁ...情が狂うが??
I was waiting for this episode. So happy to see Ruru again. Glad she found a way to like the world a little bit. And Ms. Witch!
"Everyone must be happy that I am gone." Turning 28 this year and I still wonder about this. Would anyone miss me if I disappear? But...I still want to try and fight my depression. There are a few beautiful things in life.
I really do love this series so very much.
This show makes me so happy
gracias
I don’t remember what the classical piano piece In this is called, but my sister played it at my Uncle’s funeral since it was one of his favorites.
He committed suicide.
This was hard to watch for me.
i really love ruru
I wish I was able to like this more than once ;;;;
RURUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I'm going to cry again QAQ
I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains
my god i love ruru, so happy that she didn't give up, hope she meets nina again.
i relate to her too much it’s worrying me
I love and relate to Ruru so much! Her whole design and character is amazing and I can't wait to see her more! I also hope that she gets to meet the which again :) I can't wait for the new episodes and stories, thank u so much for creating these
Can't watch yet because of timezones and school lol
That's a very smart choice! This video will stick around, you can watch it anytime so it can also wait till after school :)
I was really looking forward to Ruru's picture drama 🥺💕
I'm just glad Ruru seems to be doing better.
These aren't tears... Im not crying.... I'm not sad.... I'm just glad there's someone i could relate to... From an anime.. it feels comforting, and validating, and calming....

The artstyle and the story is just so good. We can all relate to Ruru on some points, she just seems so lonely... Loved the series 🖤🖤
