Question: Cynicism, nihilism and depression in German art?

Posted: 13 Apr 2015 02:05 PM PDT

So basically I noticed in my animes a reacurance of referrences to depressing/nihilistic German art.

most animes that have referrence to German culture/art is depressing, nihilistic and cynical.

Its kinda like a reacurring theme. If anime is dark and depressing than it usualy comes with a german song or the chapter title is in german or something randomly german.

Almost as if japanese people asociate germany with darkness and depression.

Examples:
Komm Susser Tod in End of Evangelion
Blumenkranz in kill la kill
The series Monster

I cant really express the similarities I'm seeing but is German art/culture known for being depressing?

Was their a depressing art movment or is German culture gernerally dark?

Or is this coicidence?

I feel like Germany is asociated with this
