RULES.  share four songs  /  pieces of music that represent your chara. ( repost, don’t reblog )
1. I WANTED SO BADLY TO BE BRAVE ( by the wonder years )
your father came in angry like a thunderstorm tossed you room from room and i watched color draining from your face fault lines started forming underneath all of your floorboards we sat terrified waiting on an earthquake
i watched you put on a brave face i wanted so badly to be brave ---- they’ll put a gun into your hand and call you weak until you're violent don't believe it they're hateful cause they're empty we've got a chance to break the cycle we could be the heroes that we always said we'd be "don't take me home, don't take me home, don't take me-”
ANALYSIS.  the first half really strikes a chord for me when nagisa’s mom storms into the classroom screaming over demanding nagisa to be moved out of the class and bribery. her grabbing him and abusing him in front of his own classmates and teachers. they couldn’t reall do anything other than watch her scream and throw a fit. they knew what he was now dealing with every day of his life.
for the second half, the government really did weaponize a class of failures and made fun of them and harassed them to make them want to do all of this. they didn’t want to at the end get rid of their teacher, to go back to the way things were before and how they were nobodies. they wanted to come out of this with it had meaning something to them, that they did right.
2. SLEEP IN THE HEAT ( by pup )
and nothin' i say will make it okay you just sleep in the heat and repeat you're wastin' away and nothin' i do is gonna save you i'm tryin' my best, but you can't even look at me and talk to me and tell me what's happening to you
yesterday, i went back to my apartment to see how you'd been holdin' up  you hadn't been eating, i thought you were sleepin', but you're not wakin' up and i want you to know that i'd spend every bit of my pitiful savings and loans  just to see you again but I know i won't
ANALYSIS. the death of koro sensei was hard on everyone, but in the anime they really dug it in of course for nagisa since he was the main character and main connection they made. having to volunteer to be the one to kill koro at the end despite trying to vouch for not killing him in the end really, really was painful. after for a moment losing two people in his mind after kayano was murdered, it really was just digging in loss for him. there’s nothing he could have done to stop this from happening, no money, no time, no words that could stop him from not having to kill koro. he had to do it and there was no way around it, and it was all just coming to an end that no one wanted, or could stop.
3. WELCOME TO THE FAMILY ( by watsky )
those fires in your attic that rage without permission some days invade your living room or break out in the kitchen they breeze right through the building they just show up as they please and then retreat like grown up children well how'd you like to split this L and tell me what you've witnessed if the price of life is hell well no one ever had to sell me on how nice a fire smells and there's so much I've been silent on
but i'll whisper every secret to you when this mic is gone and i know you'll listen  and i know it's different  but it gives me peace our missing pieces could be siblings the rough nights ain't leaving, so why the hell should we? and i say
welcome to the family
you deserve love you deserve love you deserve love
ANALYSIS.  from the start, nagisa has struggled with self image and doubt through out the series. wether at the start it was if he was worth being alive, if he is strong enough to confront his mother, or face the bullies simply harassing him in school. but his classmates for the most part have helped him through some really rough times. isogai, sugino, and maehara really were there for nagisa and have seen some really intense parts of his life. and them and the class are in it all together, lifting each other up and making sure along the way that their spirits are growing. by the end of the class, nagisa has self worth, power, strong love for himself as the end of it all hits with heavy waves.
4. HEAVEN’S GATE (SAD & SOBER)  ( by the wonder years )
you were a bandit, and i was a car wreck you were the decades on my feet i was under purple blankets
you were a bandit, and i was a car wreck you were the rifle on the wall and it was always gonna end
you were a bandit, and i was a car wreck you were the false rain that falls from a window AC unit
you were a bandit, and i was a car wreck you were the rifle on the wall and it was always gonna end like this
ANALYSIS.  the end of the assassination when the government tried to go behind their backs, they literally told the media that the kids were brainwashed and being held captive. that they all were stockholm-ed and wouldn’t admit to what was going on, they were stalked by the media and harassed while they tried to make their way up that mountain. 
but they knew what was up there all along. it was the first thing that he said to them, that by the end of the year, he would either be killed, or take the earth with him. despite them finding out the reason of why the earth would be destroyed being not his fault anymore, it was too dangerous. they had to do it, it was a story in motion, and it was always, always going to end this way despite how hard nagisa and half of the class, wanted to stop this fate.
