Graduation SongWaiP Kimura
While taking the form of a choral piece sung at graduation ceremonies, this unconventional work is packed with dark humor that exposes the flip side of school life.
Composed by Kimura wai-P, it was posted to Niconico in 2016.
The lyrics cram in the candid feelings lurking behind graduations—so often told as heartwarming stories—and the hard realities that can’t be glossed over.
There are even moments that make you laugh, like the lines about meeting again at a cram school with no plans for the future.
If the standard graduation songs leave you wanting more, give this one a listen.
