ENG: May i asked him, how he committed suicide ?? Jumping out of the window, did he pointed a gun at his head, or he said "I'm so useless, I just want to die..." R.I.P PowaPowa-P... and why his death is so secret ?? I just want to find his secret death mystery... At last... i found his finds/beta songs... But, I'm surprised to find out that "Please Give Me A Red Pen" and "Healthy End" are both connected each other... 🤔🤔😯😯😔😔 JAP: 私は彼にどのように自殺したのか尋ねましたか？ 窓から飛び出したとき、彼は頭に銃を向けましたか、それとも「私は役に立たないので、私はただ死にたいだけです。。。」と言ったのですか。 私は彼の秘密の死の謎を見つけたいだけです...ついに...彼の発見/ベータ版の曲を見つけました。。。しかし、「私に赤ペンをください」と「健康的な終わり」を見つけて驚いています 両方が互いに接続されています。。。🤔🤔😯😯😔😔

The words “I walk because I was born” often come into my mind. This is probably the most powerful lyric I've ever heard. Knowing that life is pointless and everything you do is futile, but saying “fuck you, I don't need meaning, I am happy because I am living”

[@densanweebochan4021]

This song is about finding reasons to live, clearly, but after we know how Powapowa really felt, this song feels a lot more like a cry for help. I transcribed a MIDI cover and noticed something; in the final few lines, he seems to be getting better or coming to terms, "If I can put into words every second I've lived, I should be able to start walking again," but, he changes key from major to minor, usually expressing sadness or regret. So... was he admitting that he knew he wasn't going to be okay in one of the only ways he knew, through creative composition, and the key was a subtle way of expressing his true feelings? Very sad. RIP.

My interpretation is that the door that she originally went through was not suicide, but was just the same old her, living life every day like she always does (considering that her life seemed very boring and repetitive). She needed the extra push to make a change in her life, after realizing this.

[@SandraNguyenawesome]

[@rambard5599]

Take in mind that Powapowa himself didn't make the PV, so it's really dubious that it would in any way be about suicide. Besides, the song seems too upbeat to even be about that.

This song is just so deep to me...that's why it's my favorite song. I understand the true meaning of this: Miku's daily life is just continuously opening the same bedroom door, riding the train to school and back, and a cycle that she always followed. When her conscious persuaded her to take a new road, to open new doors that could possibly be better than this on-going cycle of her life, to find the meaning and purpose she was looking for. And when her conscious finally couldn't take the pressure of her not finding a new path in life, she just tried it out for herself and make a difference that might have not changed the world, but something that could change HER world.

In fact, I actually later heard his final song (red pen), but I didn't realize he had passed away. I wish I had something nice to say, but, damn it. Fuck. This is a tragedy.

I remember being 9 or 10 and listening to PowaPowa P almost everyday, I was being s/abused at the time by someone I thought that loved me, and every will to live at that age was already fading. I attempted suicide at the age of 10 because of my abuser leaving me behind, I was relieved but still devastated for everything that already happened to me, since that was not the first time I was abused. This song is one that will always live in my heart because when I was recovering I would often daydream for a better tomorrow with this song. PowaPowa P healed me in a way that makes me cry every time, I'm so thankful for him and everything he did for a lot of people in this world, I hope that maybe my words could reach him wherever he is right now.

I first heard Strobe Last. I liked it a lot. I didn't payed to much attention to the lyrics. But somehow the song made me feel a little melancholic. I saw that there was more than one Strobe song. And i found this one. For once, i saw the lyrics. I was instantly facinated by it. I translated to my native language in Word document and tryed to see trought the lyrics and see if i could find the autors soul. That seemed so similar to mine. When i first read the lyrics in the word document. It touched my hearth and made me so sad. I knew then, that the song writer was living beacuse he was born. And i knew that he didn't wanted to go trough all of this nonsense of life. When i saw the comments section i confirmed my thoughts. He is dead. And there is no doubt about it. He stoped walking willingly.

[@CloudyObsession]

I don't think it's particularly good or healthy to try and relate the themes and emotions of this song to Powapowa's suicide. I don't really think he would have wanted that. His suicide didn't define him as a person, suicidal ideation was not the extent of everything he was, he was a complete person with plenty of other things to share, and so I don't think trying to view all of his artistic work and everything he had to say under that lens is doing his body of work justice, I don't think it's something we should let color our interpretations of every song he put out. Let's try to appreciate the thoughts and messages and emotions he put into and expressed through his work and take it as it is, as it was presented to us, rather than trying to view them all as some grand cry for help. Especially because there -was- a song he put out to that end, it's Please Give Me a Red Pen, because that one is...pretty obvious what it's about. This song is very much not that.

[@demifolk8940]

Relating everything to his death is very bad but recognizing some of his sadness is okay. But yea not every sad line is immediately suicidal…. I have severe depression so his music is extremely cathartic for me. He used to be able to express his emotions through his music in a way that was not self destructive or unhealthy. I get extremely suicidal at times so his music helps a lot. Seeing how everyone appreciated him gives me some strength. So remembering his death isnt always a bad thing either

[@littlecake453]

I haven't thought before that people actually may do that... I think it's just a very flat and one sided way of looking at his work. A bit sad, it's like he isn't PowaPowaP but "that voca-p who killed himself".

I sometimes wonder where i would've been if i never found out about vocaloid. In my early days when i was new to vocaloid and stuffs i only used to listen to vocaloid songs because they sounded great but as i started digging deep into it i found songs that were relatable and in a sense comforting for me. My childhood was not the greatest because of a lot of personal and family issues/dramas which i don't want to mention about and I never had any friends so vocaloid was my only way to comfort myself. siinamota played a really important role in it. Most of my comfort vocaloid songs were by him, i still remember listening to his songs while weeping and feeling numb as i locked myself inside of my dark room. I am very grateful that i was able to discover this community and specially siinamota, vocaloid didn't just remained a mere music genre i liked but it became a part of me, only my heart knows how much i am connected to these songs because it can't forget all those moments that I've spent with them. I am now 17 and i don't think I would've been able to make it till here without sina's songs. Getting out of my vocaloid phase will be a tough thing for me but i am not complaining! I'll continue to listen to vocaloid, listen to your songs siinamota as long as i want tho it hurts knowing that I'll never be listening to a new song by you. It's enough for now , And for the last time i wanted to say thankyou siinamota, your songs played a significant role in my life and the only way i could payback is by listening to them at all stages of my life and never let them be forgotten. Marking from now, I'll come back here every year on all of my upcoming birthdays and leave a comment showing my appreciation towards you and a little lifeupdate note. If a single year passes without me coming back to it then it would simply mean i am no more. I don't know about anyone else but you and your songs will forever be remembered by me. Rest in peace.

[@39fish77]

I think the meaning of this PV is kind of like that glasses-Miku is living in her comfort zone and keeps on living day by day feeling bored without knowing actual meaning of the life that she's living in (the room with the name card on it = her comfort zone). Although the cats trying to lead her out of her comfort zone = another door, she refused because, you know, people tend to stay in their comfort zone more than go outside and experience. The Miku with no glasses is the inner of her, which is strongly desiring to get out of the comfort zone and finally kicked the glasses Miku outside.

[@SFMikimeta]

I agree with most of what you said, but with what you said at the end, I have some speculation, too. I strongly believe that the no glasses and smaller Miku is the younger her from the past, since the lyrics do mention something like that. About how it's more difficult now (learning more things about the world, living longer, accumulating regrets, etc), and wanting to walk onwards just as easily like the "you" from before (her past self). So I'm thinking younger her helps out her current self.

[@PortalingScience]

Ichiban daiji na mono. I don't think that it's really her younger self, I like to think that it's her conscience or her just reviewing her endless cycle from a later point in time. Glasses-Miku is always heading home through the same door everyday instead of the other one, hence the second iteration of the video. Her conscience (Dress Miku) is always pushing her to try new paths. I think that this video is about trying new things and to not regret on what decisions you have made so you can finally be brave enough to even try "walking". But then again, this is why I love the Vocaloid community, always having a fresh perspective on videos!

[@corndogboi]

I’m guessing after all of what happened, you could probably that Miku is probably a representation of Siinamota himself, as he also wore glasses. And like how many others have said in other comments, this is about finding reasons to live. Siinamota’s reasons to live.

RIP Powapowa-p... you were a wonderful soul.

[@sacredeight]

[@xPixelDreams]

Shelby Kay he died. everyone suspects he committed suicide or gave in to an illness but I guess we'll never know :^(

[@N0RA_BX]

"Every second someone lives on, we feel ourselves live on" I am literally crying. Rest in peace. I wish I had discovered your music sooner, but I am so happy that I did at all, and so I hope you are happy. You worked hard and your music makes me smile. Thank you :)

I just found out about them and what happened to them is really sad. I'm happy that a lot of people are appreciating their works. I also love this song very much. Cheers me up during these times.

[@idontcheckmynotifsdontboth7753]

I don’t know how to explain it but there’s just something so special about this little song,

[@atsunome]

I came back here today to wish Siinamota/PowaPowa-P a happy birthday! Thank you so much for making many of my favourite Vocaloid songs, they really do mean a lot to me and many others in the community. I’m glad I am able to listen to such wonderful songs because of you.

[@neptunites]

This song makes me feel so nostalgic, but also sad. The lyrics are some of the most interesting lyrics I've ever read honestly. I've never felt more invested into song lyrics than this? Plus the chord progression is totally nice and has a bittersweet feeling to it. I heard strobe last first, but I like this one better. I'm not sure why but it makes me feel like I'm in some other dimension.

what the hell man this is a masterpiece. he has many masterpieces, hard to believe he was so young.. must have been busting his ass and working hard for many long years, exploring his depression, searching for meaning, and happiness, to express himself so truly and universally in this world that makes it so hard, MAN!! he was a genius

[@stinkymoth]

This song is very personal to me. I just relate to it so much, me having bpd and experiencing the same emptiness described in the song. Feeling the monotony of everyday life has been a constant struggle for me. Im constantly looking for meaning in my life and this song is a comfort song for me.

[@slee1024]

Hope you’re doing better my fellow bpd friend. This song is such a comfort to me too 7 years later

[@yunahology]

i don't even really listen to vocaloid in general anymore + was just scrolling through old playlists and gave this a listen again after so long.... its crazy how in hindsight I would listen to this every day and hope things would get better and after not hearing this for almost a year, everything finally did get better 😭😭💜

[@Heartlesschordz]

I may still be deep in my depression, but this song makes my feelings feel a little more valid. Thank you. Rest in peace powapowa.

[@tokemetal666]

i think this is my favorite song ever. not just for sentimental reasons, but for some reason powapowa's talent in this song really stands out to me. i usually stray towards more noisier hardcore music but i first started really listening to music in general when i first started out listening to bits and pieces of siinamota's discography (along with some other cringe shit i dont feel like mentioning) and for some reason this song and chiyoko's opening of the cabinet realls stuck out for me. when i first listened to the song, i sort of had a concept of what the lyrics itself meant but it wasn't really to a relatable level unlike nowadays where im now at a stage where im habitually trying to crawl out of a really bad borderline depression that i've been suffering with ever since i was around 11.. i want to hopefully get to a point where i no longer fully understand or relate to the song anymore, no matter how unstable i am during or after the process. once you feel happy for more than like two seconds it's sort of like crack honestly i wish powapowa saw the impact he had on other people making his music. dude was a really talented producer, even if he isn't my favorite artist in the world, he's definitely in terms of music a really young prodigy and boasts a super fucking huge discography considering how old he was before he died. rip man, may you rest in peace suicide isn't the answer as well, hope everyone who reads this gets their shit together tight

[@raspberrycyanide]

I return to this song after so many years since Strobe Last's addition in project sekai. This song, Strobe Last, and A Palette Full of You (another recent powapowa addition to the roster) are two songs that mean a lot to me and I'm conflicted on how I feel about those two additions to the game as in one way its keeping Powapowa alive and that's something I think should be carried out. However, it also feels a bit like using his music for money and that's kind of sad in a way. Regardless, I will always appreciate powapowa for providing me something to relate to and help me through tough times. His music impacted me very deeply personally. Rest in Peace man and may your music live on.

[@roach1898]

Me finding out about siinamota really put me at the opposite end of things to when I read yt comments about people finding out wowaka for the first time. Like, clicking the in game link to siinamota songs only to find out the last post on its niconico page is from 2015 and finding out the guy died at the age of 20, feels bad man.

[@maeve184]

I’ll never forget listening to this song when I was 12 or so years old and trying to figure myself out. I still don’t know and probably won’t for awhile, but PowapowaP’s music influenced me and I hope he knew how powerful and amazing his music is. Rest In Peace, your music helped me through a lot and I’ll always remember your wisdom.

[@hwlo7891]

rest in peace siinamota. i hope that it brings you comfort that all the songs you wrote about your own struggles are beautiful, helping others recover from the very same thing you struggled with all your life. a reminder that people aren't completely alone, i'm sorry that things had to go the way they did, i wish that you'd still be here to make music. more music to help others out of the dark like this one. thank you for existing, you're missed so dearly.

[@sukasuru]

I wish I was old enough and smart enough back then to tell Siinamota how much he has done for me. There is nothing else like hearing the mind of someone who may very well be the definition of melancholic. There is nothing else like finding music that truely describes your thoughts for you. There is nothing else like being saved from a death, by a person who already fell into it. I will forever grasp to this music. I hope you are still resting well, Siinamota.

[@isabellamuniz8993]

This was the first time listening to his music. I'm not sure how he died, but he had so much more potential to help the vocaloid community grow, but he's gone now. Rest in peace, PowapowaP.

I don't know why, but this song is making me feel sad- in a good way. It's like, happy sad. Agh, whatever. I feel bad for deciding to listen to this now tho. I've seen this video in my suggestion list for quite a while, but I ignored it. And now I've watched it and... Well... Yeah.

[@ivana2609]

oh i didnt even remember ive commented this lmao, this song still evokes the same feeling- even worse, remembering this song is pretty old and especially remembering PowapowaP

[@Cosplaybuddygiraffes]

It’s been exactly five years since Powa-P’s passing and I’ve only started today to listen to his music. I honestly don’t know why I haven’t done so earlier, but maybe it was fate that I’d click on this song on this noteworthy day. This is a really melancholic song- I’m in a point in my life where getting up every day feels like an all too familiar routine, I don’t have much to live for. It feels hopeless, but this strange and crazy world does have things worth living for: Wonderful friends, incredible creations by others, gorgeous sights, and many years to come of excitement, you just need to take that step into the unknown. We’ll never know what Powa-P was thinking in his last moments on this green earth, but I sincerely hope he’s living in peace somewhere up above right now. I’ll live on for his and many others’ sakes

[@javipierrot9970]

Keep going, there's still beauty in everything, it's just a matter of finding it. This song speaks to me in a different level and yes, I can agree with the nostalgic feeling. This is one huge part of my daily motivation; maybe I'll able to start walking again

[@blueluna8779]

Thank you Siinamota/Powapowa, I really need this right now. Thank you.

[@ravekicker]

this song is really relevant in my time of life right now. everything is so repetitive; wake up, go to school, spend time w friends in school, then rot in bed after trying to find something to do.. but in reality im just on my phone scrolling my feed page or watch videos until i fall asleep. i havent done my hobbies in a while now because of school, and i rarely ever go out with my friends because theyre either busy with something else or my dad worries about letting me go out with them without an older guardian (im in highschool). all i can do right now is listen to music i love as a coping mechanism. i feel depressed and empty simultaneously, i just dont want to go through these emotions all the time.. sometimes i just want to end it all, but i cant. im trying to find a solution to it, and this song is getting me through rough times. thank you powapowaP. i wish he knew his songs helps thousands of people like me that has or is going through simular experiences as he did.

[@cinderheartmeow6032]

Many of these songs got me through some of the hardest moments of my depression. He may be gone but his art helped many people who felt the same way he did. I only comment this now because i’m on my own journey to healing from what happened in my life as a child, the lense of depression I saw the world through for most of my life, and how that’s affected my memories. Listening to songs like this always lights something within me that just makes the world feel hopeful for a while. Without music and art like this I wouldn’t be alive right now. RIP, this music was and still continues to be a safe place for many people. Even if he couldn’t be saved or helped himself he continues to fill the hearts of others with hope. Powa, siinamota, high-color-sunz, whatever he named himself, will be eternally loved and missed.

[@Carbon8tion]

I always find myself coming back to both this and Strobe Last, they're in my usual music playlist of endless songs, of course, but I always find myself at ease when I hear those first few notes, and find that i'm genuinely dissapointed once they end and move onto the next song. Something about them just resonates with me so much, especially Strobe Light. If I have the ability to, i'll stop what i'm doing when this comes on and watch the video. I love the video so much, it's so simple, so plesant, so monotone, much like the song itself, just mellow and pleasant, kind of monotone, but not really, the warm, almost lazy strums of the guitar, the way the vocals sound out one syllable at a time, loudly and clearly, the simple wording that even someone as illiterate in Japanese as I am can understand. It's all so... Mellow. It's..... Me. This song feels alot like I do, in a way that i've never been able to put into words. Infact, alot of PowaPowa's more mellow works remind me alot of those things I feel deep inside. I'm really glad he had a proper way of expressing those feelings, not many people are able to do that. I just really, really, really like this song, it feels so familiar, so, so familiar. (Don't worry, i'm okay, this isn't a cry for help, this is just me showing appreciation for this song and PowaPowa's life too, I guess)
