    One of the saddest things about Ayano to me now is honestly the fact that what she is can be perspective based.
    Yes, she is a Hero, hell a Messiah and a Saint even. But her actions can be used to describe a Fool, a Clown even. The song Pierrot by KEI shows a very similar character after all.
    A person that sacrifices their own happiness for others is both a Hero and a Fool in their own ways, because while you may reserve others. You are also harming someone in tandem, even if you are only directly causing yourself pain, there are others that care enough to be harmed by your own sadness.
    Ayano is a Hero, as she sacrificed everything to ensure her siblings had a future. But she is also a Fool, as she took away their big sister from them.
    She is both a Hero and a Fool, and this is why we all love her. Unfortunately she is not a Role Model, as no one should aspire to be a sacrificial lamb.

      It's interesting that you mention that. In tarot readings, the card of the Fool represents the person taking the journey; the hero of the story.

      Ok so the "Kagerou project" has more than one media, eg songs and manga. In the story the world gets 'reset' so there are multiple 'routes' (you could also call them timelines but routes it the correct term). The whole story follows the pattern: songs, manga, light novels and anime because the anime is where the world doesn't get reset and the main characters win. From songs to anime they are connected, not just remade in different forms of media.

    Although I haven't seen the base media for this song, It reminds me of someone close to me who recently passed.
    Me and two of my best friends were struggling to get back up on our feet after what we've just went through...and a girl appeared out of nowhere to help us.
    I tried my best to get close to her and she shared a lot of information to me that in the eyes of other's would be john wick's level of lethal.
    But no matter how much pain me and my two best friends went through, she would always be there to help us through it and protect us when something threatened our lives once again.
    However...she wasn't taking care of herself because of it. She kept trying to push back her pained voice as she kept up a bright smile while facing us.
    Later on she didn't appear for a while...and her appearances at our usual hangout spot would slowly go to once a month...until she wouldn't appear at all.
    My friend told me she went on a mission to help someone in another country and that she wouldn't be back for a while, so I waited for her to come back so I could congratulate her on the success!
    ...She died on her way back. We were all devastated when we got the news of her passing.
    That girl was only in my life for a year, and yet she's had more impact on it than anyone else within my lifetime.
    Always putting other's before herself, doing anything she could to ensure our safety...She was a modern hero.
    Although her last act was going on a mission to save someone else in another place, and she perished while returning home, she will forever be known as a hero.
    I've tried my best to keep up her work and protect the others as she did, but this song resembles who she was to a pin point accuracy.
    So wish me luck, and thank you for reading my tale.

    I love this song in general, your voice fits it well. The song brings me to tears normally, but your voice added to it makes me sob like a baby.
    If any of you are interested, this is how I grew up, because i relate to this song:
    There is a warning for you who may be triggered.
    I am the oldest of four sisters. I am fifteen, and my sisters are now five, six, and twelve. I am starting high school. I grew up kind of sad, probably because of chemicals in my brain. There is a history of that in my famly.
    In sixth grade, my pawpaw had a stroke. I was also being bullied in school. My life was terrible, and i felt my family hated me too. My dad works from home, and my twelve year old sister was very busy with her friends. My mom's sisters and brother could not/would not help with my pawpaw, and the stroke left him parylzed in his left side and can no longer walk and needs a sitter. He was in a coma for about a month or two, pretty sure, in and out of different hospitals, and he lived far from my house. Since he was so high maintance, my mom bravely went there every weekend for most of the year. She has a huge heart and I admire her greatly. My dad was busy and my twelve year old sister was also busy, so there was my little sisters too. No one could handle them, so my mom left me, the big sister, in charge of them whilst she worked hard to help my pawpaw. I had bad depression so i felt as if my problems were insignifacant.
    Now, years have passed and my sisters and i are close as can be. In late 2019, I attempted suicide, and it messed with my brain and muscles so sometimes i suck at spelling and my legs were too weak to walk for a few days.
    Now, yesterday, I just won an art contest and got to meet the mayor. I have come so far, and i got accepted into the high school of my choice. I am working on a story with themes I wish i had when i wanted to end myself. Its been in production since January, and I hope to adapt it to animation in the future since I animate.
    I watch Pokemon with my sisters and they love animal crossing when i play it with them. They are my pride and joy, and I am proud of how they've grown. We went to disney world and while my parents and other sister rode extreme rides, i rode the small rides with my sisters. I took a few pictures of them and seeing their smiling eyes (wearing masks) are enough to keep me living. The youngest shares my birthday, so happy birthday.
    I also have a hedgehog now, so I can get a cockatiel once i move out because its good practice and my mom is allergic to dander. Her name is Skidoo and she means a lot to me as well. I truly love being alive.

      I mentioned his voice fit Outer Science too well for its own good, but I think the downside is I feel like it doesn’t fit this song. It’s really good, but this song is too personal to Ayano (even in tone, unlike Additional Memory, which is disconnected a little imo) for me to jive with a male singer.
