This kind of confusion runs through the youth of the author and everyone; he is tortured by pain and confusion, and he spends his life seeking love and avoiding love due to self-weariness.

Six days later, their bodies were found under the bridge, on his birthday. Since then, June 19th every year has been regarded as the anniversary of Dazai Osamu's death. On this day, fresh cherries are placed in front of Dazai Osamu's tomb to hold a "cherry memorial ceremony".
