I loved this show so much, it taught me about living in the moment more than anyone else ever has. I didn’t really think about the apocalyptic themes too much when watching it because honestly I mostly enjoyed the everydayness of the show, just two girls living. they contemplate the state of the world around them without letting it affect how they interact with it. The show presents such an excellent example of mundane joy somehow, how just surviving doesn’t have to be a chore but a quiet joy you can partake in, no matter the situation. how sometimes just a bit companionship can be everything you need. It changed how I interact with the world as well, how I perceive it and how I value the moments I have in it.
It was what got me through a tough moment. I was really trying to figure out what the point of all of my actions was, and if it mattered that I was trying so hard or not. And when you see something like this, you remember that it doesn't matter at all, it'll all end the same. But if it did, I would be sad that I lost the thing I was working so hard for, and so it must be something that was adding value to my life. So, I might as well keep doing it
i was hesitant to watch this at first because i assumed it was just going to say "everything sucks but just live with it", but im really glad i did watch it to the end anyway. the message really hit me hard, i needed to hear it. thank you for making this
The reason I really like philosophy is that I feel it puts logic to those conclusions. It kind of means it's just using more words to say the same thing, but it actually attempts to make it make sense, rather than just leaving someone to blindly accept something for benefit. That's what I try to carry forward here as well, and I'm glad that I can succeed
"true hopelessness is having nowhere to go." that put it in words This whole video is profound. "The need to move... to destroy whats in our way to move forward." Wow. Fantastic upload. I needed this.
Thank you for your time spent with the video! And also for the ego boost haha. But, I can't take much credit; the original writing is most of the idea, I simply had some bit of input and a lot of phrasing
I'd just read this manga about a week ago before I saw the poll the other day, what a coincidence! I really loved the ending to this one and I'm glad you covered it!
I cried and sobbed so much during this video. Not just remembering one of my favorite stories, but listening to your thoughtful words as well. Thank you so much. If you or anyone reading this hasn't read Girls Last Tour, please do. And give the author's next manga a try as well, Shimeji Simulation. It's just as goofy and maybe even more existential than Girls Last Tour, it that's even possible. And please, take care of yourselves everyone. It gets better.
Ive always had this show on the back burner to watch and this is how I initially heard what happens. The snowball got me. Unironically reminded me of Dark Souls 1 and it's whole narrative of living in a seemingly purposeless just to light the fire for a essentially dead world. Great video! 😢
This is beautiful. Thank you so much for all the stories you share and everything your create. I saw this anime a while back and having it discussed brought of memories of my past and seeing the ending I never got to before was something special. Thank you. ❤
I had read the manga for this a while ago when a friend recommended it. I was absolutely floored by it! I enjoyed the art of course, but then just the feeling about it... It has been hard to put into words, but you managed it! ❤
I'm glad that I could! It's actually a bit comforting that I don't always really have to reinvent the wheel and state something entirely new, but simply collect what was there into a more digestible form
It's honestly crazy how little information I could find on that previous work, I didn't see a dedicated wikipedia page at all when I checked it out from this comment
@@ProfessorViral Not surprised, it's not very well known outside the Touhou community and it's mostly just known as "that one very sad Touhou manga the author of Girl's Last Tour made", but it's a very good story about an immortal vampire girl and about mortality and immortality in general.
i realte way too much to u man, its too hard to watch ur videos, it reminds me of all the lessons and hurtfull things that i went thru, using anime as a way to understand it and cope
Nope, it's the first I've ever used it here on the channel. The title is just a quote from the anime, so someone else may have a similar title to their video
Getting born into a world where your a simple worthless tool that can be tossed aside after serving nothing is pure emotional trauma
Earth?
Pretty much except I’m the person calling myself worthless cuz of emotional anxiety
wdym "a world?" you're only a "worthless tool" to the peoplpe who don't actually know you.
@@daimonion13 earth is pure emotional trauma
This video makes me wanna cry. Its your best yet.

That ending was beautiful and poignant. I admit to crying. Thank you for the wonderful video essay
Of course, thank you for such an open comment!

@ProfessorViral Still, the insight is in your eyes to provoke you to write the script! Credit is due where it is. It was a tear jerker.
“ Upbeat existentialism.” That was how it struck me. Absolutely adore both the manga and the anime. Thank you for this excellent essay.
Of course, I'm happy you enjoyed it!
I'd just read this manga about a week ago before I saw the poll the other day, what a coincidence! I really loved the ending to this one and I'm glad you covered it!
I'm always happy to have such good timing haha
I love the attitude of Chito and Yuuri
Even though survival is taking most of their world, they still manage to make plenty of fun
It feels unfortunately relatable, trying to make fun in a world that's ending

Thank you for your time and very honest comment. I'm glad I could be part of such an emotional impact
Another GLT video essay to binge let’s go
BABE WAKE UP! PROF V DROPPED MORE INCREDIBLY RELATABLE CONTENT
Honestly, its a testament to this story's writing that the apocalypse was made relatable enough for me to make this haha
Everytime that I think about the finale of the manga I cry; I always wanted to do a video about it, but now I will thanks you forever
Of course, happy to help!

From what I've heard people describe of the Souls series, it does seem very similar. If I was more into games, I would probably love those
we are so back with Girl's Last Tour ☺
We'll see if YT thinks the same way 🙏
This is beautiful. Thank you so much for all the stories you share and everything your create. I saw this anime a while back and having it discussed brought of memories of my past and seeing the ending I never got to before was something special. Thank you. ❤
Of course, thank you for your time with this video!
I'm going thru a rough time right now but this has helped me a lot. Thank you 🙏😭

Thanks again for dropping at the perfect hour🙏
Hands down the best commute-mate to have on my way to 8+hours of mundanity behind a desk.
Always happy I can be that bright spot for others that so many have been for me!
My favorite manga of all time, so glad you're covering it.
Happy that I could!
I love this manga... and I also the previous work of this mangaka, "Flan Wants To Die".
It's honestly crazy how little information I could find on that previous work, I didn't see a dedicated wikipedia page at all when I checked it out from this comment

What do you think of Shimeji Simulation?
@@BlueDog15391 Haven't read it yet
i realte way too much to u man, its too hard to watch ur videos, it reminds me of all the lessons and hurtfull things that i went thru, using anime as a way to understand it and cope
Loved the manga portion of this video!
Thank you! I'm glad it was a good first go at the medium
I think that, while no future is certain, this video will probably age like fine wine.
Well, I hope that it won't, but if it has to I'd be glad to be that surviving piece of media for the vault dwellers haha
yay! i loved this athmospheric anime, thank you for covering it. but the title rings a bell, is it a reupload?
Nope, it's the first I've ever used it here on the channel. The title is just a quote from the anime, so someone else may have a similar title to their video
The tears just won’t stop ;_;
It really is one of those shows!
RAAAAAAH GLT IN 2024 !!! WE LOVE PROFESSOR VIRAL !!!!!!
Always happy to provide something for the slightly out of date stories haha
I will come back when I have watched the anime, but nice video (supposedly)
Of course, I hope it'll be worth the watch!
Everything's meaningless. Humans are just slightly to smart to realize how stupid we really are
another banger from the prof
Thanks!
