@@icetealemon2122 To me it's the feeling that everything comes and goes, but there is still peace in knowing and accepting that. It's like the Japanese concepts of 'mono-no-aware' and 'wabi-sabi' explained without words.
Same. I always liked seeing water towers simply standing there, being majestic and being very useful. Also it's a very tall and large thing falling over, which with a few of these videos that made me super nervous.
Demolition videos are usually very satisfying to watch. But there's something profoundly sad about a water tower collapse. Maybe it's because it's such a harmless and helpful structure. Maybe it's because it looks a bit like a person. But when I see that giant head hit the ground and those unexpectedly flimsy legs buckle, my heart just breaks.
There's something so ethereal, surreal and dream-like about this video i literally could put all the words in the world to describe why/how and it would still feel like it wasn't enough. For starters, this doesn't feel sad, but it has a distinct melancholic sympathy within it. The whole event also doesn't feel natural or artificial, it just feels like it is. Like something that shouldn't really happen but it is after all. A distant memory of something that you didn't really experience, of a time that hasn't really passed, of a place you haven't been to, of something you don't think about at all. But still you seem to remember it. Best i can describe it is a mysterious entity in a parallel space just going like: "You're not supposed to see this. But since you are, make yourself comfortable." Or maybe i should stop looking at Water Towers falling over a slice-of-life anime soundtrack. Maybe.
I always loved how deep Nichijou let us think about ourselves. This shows us that in oder to make progress in life and to create something new, you sometimes have to let go of the things you love even if it's painful. Never give up following your dreams!
I am already 4 months into the Quarantine. Seeing this while listening to the quiet but alluring music is like achieving apotheosis in the middle of disaster, chaos, and incongruency. Nichijou is a gift that just keeps giving. Bless that Anime.
I think the most unsettling thing is that, instead of gallons upon gallons pouring out gloriously, it just releases dust. It's unnatural, like it was dead inside before outside.
As a kid I was always scared at how much demolition there'd be if these huge water towers were to fall, but to my surprise at lot of them fall like they just need a good night's rest lol
haven't seen a fall of water tower or anything of that sort in person, but i always thought it would be more... cartoon-y? either something along the lines of shattering like glass or just in general, something that has more impact, not this serene fall and calm landing, probably the ost is carrying this feeling even harder
Videos like these give me vibes of the Teletubbies, or Blue's Clues, where in the middle of a colorful and happy show you'd be presented with a more realistic footage of things happening in the "real" world. It was an uncanny kind of contrast.
"And, scattered about it, some in their overturned war-machines, some in the now rigid handling-machines, and a dozen of them stark and silent and laid in a row, were the Martians-dead!-slain by the putrefactive and disease bacteria against which their systems were unprepared; slain as the red weed was being slain; slain, after all man's devices had failed, by the humblest things that God, in his wisdom, has put upon this earth."

A decade later and Nichijou is coming back as a meme! What a time to be alive!!
i still remember rping online as sakamoto in middle school
My prayer worked

Why do I feel relaxed when watching this?
You know the feeling when you give up or lose something that you feel freedom
I feel... kinda sad when watching this

Poor Water Towers. They must be so tired if they're all passing out like that.
Heatstrokes be like
That's why we must keep our water tanks hydrated
Let them rest. Standing for a decade is bound to take its toll on you..
Kakyoin....
I think they're-
*snort*
Dehydrated-
Bruh this guy has a "water towers falling over" folder. That's the real helvetica standard moment.
My guy ziabetus making the real questions right now
That would be the real punchline.
He’s the one doing them
if you look closely, every time the object hits the ground, it syncs with the music!!
And that's why this is one of the best helvetica meme
hit sound: 🎶hu ho hu hu🎶
That's the point of the video my friend
Yeah . And I thought the last one would be off the beat and make me piss off
Hmm
This is the most chaotic neutral Ive seen .. it's destruction but in peaceful mode
Ye
Ye

This made me increasingly distraught and sad as it went on.
I believe that these silos and reservoirs are intentionally demolished.
@@bitraven5956 but they did nothing wrong
me earlier in the video: lol building die. fall. die. haha
me later in the video: please no please don’t fall oh he fucking did it i’m gonna cry
Glad I'm not the only one. Why is this so sad?

This made me feel kinda sad. Towards the end they kinda look like giant aliens just falling down
Aliens trampled by Humans...
Like these things from Half-Life 2
Getting some War of the Worlds vibes.

To me, it’s because they’re empty. You’d expect something to come out, but after all that, it just crumples, nothing to give...
Well, I didn't sign up to feel distraught about water towers but heeerrrreeee I am
worded beautifully
This is so sad
I think I get sad because I almost never get to see the water pouring out :(
Thabk you for syncing the fall to the music
The only Helvetica Standart with different song
FYI
Helvetica standard - sono 3
That's the ost name
It's the 3rd sono my friend :)
Ma io sono 4
There is another.
Why does no one use the 1st sono? :(
I _highly_ appreciate the fact it's synced to the beat of the song.
this makes me feel an emotion that doesnt exist
Melancholy

Of all the excellent Helvetica Standard memes, this is the one that understands Nichijou the best.
I like the chilling music
It's a really good song, Sono 3 from the nichijou ost
Correction: It’s a really good show and song!
This is astonishingly close in tone the actual helvetica standard segments from nichijou. God tier meme.
Why am I watching videos of water towers falling over and enjoying it on a level I can't explain
Welcome.
1:09 for all the people sad about them breaking, they gave this one a pillow ☺️
He’s just taking a nap
its sad they knew it was to fall
This had no business hitting me in the feels as hard as it did

This is the most calming anxiety I've ever experienced on this site
this is the longest Helvetica standard... and I'm not complain

This is honestly really creepy. It’s just towers collapsing with *that* music, and I’m watching this at 1 in the morning.
It's so sad to see such peaceful creatures get senselessly slaughtered for their steel
For just 60 cents a day, you too can help join the fight to stop water tower abuse
The director of nichijou is watching and smiling from heaven
The creator died..?
Isn't he still active?
;_;7
Ouch
Rest in Peace
I am already 4 months into the Quarantine. Seeing this while listening to the quiet but alluring music is like achieving apotheosis in the middle of disaster, chaos, and incongruency.

Mmmmmm patas
I remember watching this in highschool! I’m an adult now and it’s still surreal and great
Why is Nichijou coming back, I mean, I love it, but I'm Just a bit confused
Because quarantine.
Quarantine, and the Blu-ray release back on late 2019
it's how memes work. stuff exists for some time, and then a few years later it becomes a popular joke
This makes me feel things for some reason
日常じゃんｗ
遠い国でこれが使われてるなんて感慨深いわｗ
the anarchist inside of me really enjoyed this
are you saying that in the anarchist revolution there will be no such thing as large containers of water?
@@sleepCircle Water towers are a reactionary tool to brainwash the masses, we have nothing to lose but our water supply!
Lemme guess
You watched joker
I think the most unsettling thing is that, instead of gallons upon gallons pouring out gloriously, it just releases dust. It's unnatural, like it was dead inside before outside.
Most of us die inside before we die outside
humans have finally liberated themselves from the evil water tower overlords
There’s something oddly relaxing about this and I don’t know how to feel about it.
I like the part when it falls
It’s kinda sad seeing these fall down
I hope these memes Popularise Keiichi Awari's manga Nichijou and his other manga, Helvetica Standard!
There's something so... ethereal... about hearing Sono 3 along with falling empty water towers...
Alternate title: "...But only as a friend"
Water towers falling… My favorite
a e s t h e t i c .
I'm sleepy now. I'm going to watch this video whenever I can't sleep.
As a kid I was always scared at how much demolition there'd be if these huge water towers were to fall, but to my surprise at lot of them fall like they just need a good night's rest lol
One of the greatest videos ever made.
And then it ends with a philosophical sentence
They look so peaceful when they're sleeping.
Greatly appreciate the water towers hitting the ground on beat
Lo, I wished for a Helvetica Standard video that uses different music, and behold, the algorithm delivered.
I haven't thought about water towers in a long time.
oddly beautiful
"hold on I have the perfect water tower demolition video for this conversation"
Watching this in celebration of the nichijou manga coming back
haven't seen a fall of water tower or anything of that sort in person, but i always thought it would be more... cartoon-y? either something along the lines of shattering like glass or just in general, something that has more impact, not this serene fall and calm landing, probably the ost is carrying this feeling even harder
All of those towers are bowing their heads down in apology!
toast falling: lol
water towers slowly falling: LMAOOOOOOO
This video is otherworldly and ethereally comforting.
Now this is kinda calming rather than being chaotic.
I love this.
I love the syncing on the music
so melancholic....
Makes me nostaligc of those water towers not needed anymore.
lacks: "Did this ever happen to you?" somewhere in the end, to complete the Helvetica Standart theme
Thats the Standard I expect from Helvetica
POV: you're watching a documentary on the fall of the Pikmin Empire.
This is strangely soothing
Truly a Helvetica standard video
Videos like these give me vibes of the Teletubbies, or Blue's Clues, where in the middle of a colorful and happy show you'd be presented with a more realistic footage of things happening in the "real" world. It was an uncanny kind of contrast.
Got to buy those Nichijou OSTs they are godly
made me want to cradle a water tower in my arms , weird watching experience with lingering effects, video 7.5/10
Strangely beautiful
this makes me feel a emotion that doesn't exist
PAI??????????????
The timing with the music is perfect
This here tells a very valuable story indeed!
"I've had enough, I give up" *slo mo falls down*
Боже, храни интернет... любой ценой!
This is the kind of video that hits different at 3 am
man those water towers must be sleepy
this is relaxing, and unsettling at the same time.
this video is perfect. it's so relaxing, i cant stop watching!
I truly appreciate that they all hit the ground rhythmically. Well done. And great idea.
DAMNIT CAN I JUST GET ONE TOWER THAT'S FULL OF WATER
I never knew about this til now… I’m glad I found it
There’s something oddly Beautiful about watching such monolithic structures fall to the ground.
Demolition videos are the best
Thanks for making it in sync-
This is strangely relaxing
I feel compelled to salute to this video
-You didn't study for the exam at all? What've you been doing?
-You wouldn't get it...
The fact that it seems so.. real.. in Nichijou..
Is it just me or does this video give out that creepy vibe with the music and video quality
This has gave me a phobia I didn't have
I love how the tower's fall at the exact moment that the music hits a certain note after a couple beats. Very epic
