I like the subtle progression as the video goes on. Early on she’s completely disoriented, stumbling all over the place, but she slowly starts to regain control over her movements. By the end, she’s doing spin-kicks and twirling in midair, until she finally sticks the landing. Like someone slowly taking more and more control of their life back from their depression until they’re finally okay again.
Wowaka has made soo many songs. I will always love them all. Happy he could help someone though stuff. I hope you are still rolling even after 4 more years
@@Ray-gv7mr the meaning of the song is actually deep The meaning of it is she harms herself as 'rolling' is a methapor for 'cutting'. She cuts herself because people bully her saying that she is nothing but a failure During the song, the lyrics " No problem" was easily whispered. It means Miku(the girl that is rolling) tried to hide her sufferings with a false smile. In coclusion, the type of song is giving up, bullying, self harming and sucide. I know the tone of the song is 'happy' but that's just vocaloid is. Every vocaloid tone have the most happiest tone until you look at the meaning of the lyrics.

Hmm because technically she escaped the depression and suicidal thoughts she had by death - in the original the video only goes into colour because she is hugged by the boy literally representing her depression and suicide (I think)
I interpreted it as her taking control of her life back from her depression, since the animation starts with chaotic stumbling and ends with clear, controlled movements

I still come back to this song and animation once in a while. XD 2020 has been kind of like this. Rolling down a hill trying to right ourselves and slowly getting better as we figure it out.
People when they hear a song about a girl tired of life, barely holding on as suicidal thoughts flood her mind every day: Oooohhh cute miku rolling (*’(OO)’*)
Song: *About a depressed student who's about to suicide but saved by her teacher* Me: **falling down the stairs** *ONE MORE TIME! ONE MORE TIME! AGHGGHGHHGHG*

Just how big is this hill?

Miku is just very very small
Its long enough to roll down for nearly 1 min and 40 seconds.
about as big as the mental strain poor miku has

OH.It's the lyrics, nice also sad
You know what this set of lyrics makes the most sense, thanks for your translation.
Interesting how it can be interpreted as both "Rolling" and "Lonely" simply due to the way Japanese is spoken.
Ya know, this one visually isn't as depressing! I mean, she's a happy boi at the end!
@Aallam Lina they said “visually” but your right
Hmm because technically she escaped the depression and suicidal thoughts she had by death - in the original the video only goes into colour because she is hugged by the boy literally representing her depression and suicide (I think)

AHHHH SUCROSE PFP!! Are you a Sucrose main? I am!!

Me too, truly, a Vocaloid classic...
I guess rolling can be a good metaphor for spiraling into depression or destructive behaviors/coping mechanisms
so yeah actually this does make sense
“lol i love this song so much”
“do you know the song meaning?”
“what do you mean isn’t it about falling down the stairs or something? haha it’s so funny”
“dude..”
“what’s wrong?”
When it's a Vocaloid song, expect it to be dark.

The animation has a nostalgic feeling. There were many fan animations of the rolling girl animation. I recall an Undertale one I repeated endlessly.
As a person who grew up with some of mikus music i agree this is nogstoliga
My last braincells on a test:
You ain’t alone
They see me rolling-
They hating-
The animation is truly amazing, so much charm to it. Also happy for the girl. She has passed the test of life... with tumbling colours.
Ironic that the lyrics imply she offs herself at the end lol

This is Argus no she straight up dies in the end
But theres no teacher in this
The boy is her depression
And she dies at the end
But, that boy is her depression
And she died at the end-
I love that the rolling are fits to the song and not just randomly placed
I lost how many times I was here. Every single one of them was incredible.
Me eating ice cream but my mom told me to not finish it :
*one more time. Just a little more.*

this song so much..so powerful!!!
