For those of you who do not know, Justin Carmical (known as JewWario online) committed suicide this past week. Why do i bring it up here on SIA? Well, Justin was a person of not only great joy and enthusiasm, but a rapid and infectious love of gaming, in particularly Japanese gaming. He had a whole series called "You Can Play This!" where he walked through Japanese games that were importer friendly. Here is his YouTube channel www.youtube.com/user/JewWarioJustin also supported Senran Kagura and feel like the type of person that gaming could use more these days. Less cynicism and more optimism about the medium and the fun it offers. JewWario on SK JewWario was also part of Channel Awesome, a group of various reviewer/comedian types who did skits and all together, here is a tribute to him. thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/42100-in-loving-memory-of-justin-carmicalI don't know why Justin took his own life, only that we lost something good in gaming this week and it saddens me. |

I never got to see his videos but i heard he was a great guy. I wish i knew him because i could talk with him all day about Japanese games, anime and manga.
Why we have to lose people like this really upsets me :,(

I watched the video for the first time without reading the text above and thought "Finally a professional reviewer that doesn't bash SK's fanservice" My emotions have never changed so quickly then when I actually read the post..
This is indeed tragic to hear, and unfortunate for the gaming community. I'm sad to say I haven't heard of him before 5 mins ago. there really needs to be more people like him..

He lost his will to live. That's sad. How? Anyway it's all to common in japan since we have the highest suicide rate in the world. Let’s not get down this route.
Being someone who has had suicidal thoughts before, the main thought of committing suicide comes from sadness and a lack of clear thinking, the person either feels there is no joy or good left in their life to keep going and feel that the best way out is to end it or that they have failed.
This wrong when in a sad of depressed state your mind will only focus on the negatives which makes it difficult to see the point in continuing. Well here are the three reasons you should never end it laughter, love and the unknown.
When are or were laughing you never feel like killing yourself, when in this state you feel like you will never laugh again, but that’s the thing laughter is an emotion you can’t feel like doing it or make yourself do it, it happens.
The same can be said about love, many people kill themselves due to breaking up or a loved one being lost. If you have lost a loved one I am sorry but that person would not have wanted you to kill yourself, they would of wanted you to move on, you feel like you cannot go on because it just recently happened and the feelings are still strong causing you not to think clearly. Religious or not they are still with you in your heart and in your memories, they will never leave you. Maybe there is a heaven so don’t throw your chance away.
If you have broken up with someone then that is no reason to kill yourself. You feel like you can never feel happy without that person, but that means you were never happy even for a single second before you met that person, I find that hard to believe. If that person has broken up with you then that is not the person for you it is just the person who is, is very similar. Out of the millions of people in the world are you telling me you have met every one of them, not likely don’t throw away their chance to be with you.
You will never know what will happen so don’t give up hope.
The most important thing is to talk with others, friends, family if you do not have any then talk to professionals, having someone show they care or at least listen raises your moral and gives you a chance to think clearly.
No matter how badly your life has gone or is going it’s never too late to change it or fix it especially if you seek help, it may not be a pleasant ride but it will finish and then it will be better.
Sorry but I had to say this.

JewWario brought a great deal of joy to people, and if you watch Angry Joe can see the impact he made on friends and fellow reviewers.
I will say if you are dealing with personal issues and feel helpless and alone, please talk to friends, family or professionals to help you.
