I wanna talk about a series I love so much...one that is not only advocating for mental health in Japan, but became the icon for the style known as Yamikawaii (creepy/cute).
That series is known as MENHERA-CHAN.
This series was created by a young man named Bisuko Ezaki, who wanted to show Japan that just because someone looks fine they could actually be suffering on the inside. And it doesn’t pull any punches - there are depictions of mental illness, self-harm, suicide, and many other topics that would be seen as very taboo especially in Japan.
Unfortunately, Japan can only understand such things if it’s made into a trend; this developed into Yamikawaii culture, which advocates for mental illness as well but is turned into something more ‘acceptable’ for their society.
Mental illness is often not discussed in Japan, and it’s largely due to their culture. They believe that, no matter what, a person should smile and act as if everything is fine...and you can see why suicide rates and hikikomoris are a big issue in that country.
But this series advocates for change, for Japanese society to finally see the real issue and make changes to fix that.
The actual story is about a Magical Girl named Menhera-Chan, and her struggles with not only her (severe) mental health issues but also an evil that wants to seemingly push humanity into death and despair. She ends up meeting two other Magical Girls along the way, and soon finds out the truth about her exact origins.
As you can guess, some people have a problem with how this series unapologetically shows these kinds of sensitive subjects. It obviously doesn’t tell people to harm themselves or anything like that, but there’s always someone who will see this kind of stuff and think it’s cool/trendy. And that’s sad, because it means that people don’t see what the series is really trying to do and only see it as some trashy self-harm promotion.
If you’re not squeamish or sensitive to these subjects, go and check it out!

I love summer. I hate cold weather. Thanks to stupid me though it’s my first summer with noticeable scars if I wear shorts and stuff. I honestly don’t care about them but my mother sure seems to. I try to be confident and wear short but she made me cry when she told me I should cover them. Why did she do that? I know you don’t want people to be mean to me but I don’t want to die in the heat.

Why do I find self harm so pretty. That’s messed up. I do it myself I should know that but being in pain and enjoy it seems so nice. The pretty cuts the messy blood. Purple bruises, red healing skin. Picking off the scabs. I love it so much. This is so wrong why do I think this.

Burns
tried burning myself instead of cutting because cutting leaves marks which I do like but its easy to get caught doing because of stupid body checks my mother dose. I think I like this way the sting afterwards is amazing I love it. Doesn’t last as long as sore cuts which I also like but it lasts long enough. As long as I’m carful and don’t do it for too long there shouldn’t be a mark this is perfect.
