Higashi no Eden: Falling Down

To put it simply, this is just a music video that can be found on YouTube. If you're a fan or just listening to the british band, Oasis, then this one's for you.

Higashi no Eden: Falling Down can be described as a "Thank You For Borrowing Your Rights" gift from Production I.G., who also animated Higashi no Eden, to the british band, Oasis, who sang Falling Down and made it into an OP song to Higashi no Eden, by re-editing the OP scene into a lyric/abstract music video art style.

This 4-minute, 27 seconds of this video is all about the whole song of "Falling Down" ... with a short abstract, yet artistic animation music video about the opening. Also, if you have plans to watch it and Higashi no Eden, but you're concerned about the spoilers, don't worry, there's no spoilers here. It's just a Music Video, no doubt.

If the song convinces you to watch Higashi no Eden, then why not give it a try? It's a great anime nonetheless! ^_^

(P.S. The reason why I gave 1 for both story and Character because, OBVIOUSLY, there's no plot here. IT'S JUST A MV.)

After watching the series, "Higashi no Eden", I made sure I watched the music video. This music video stays true to the uniqueness of the anime "Higashi no Eden" with animation identical to the opening seen in every episode.

The animation is completely amazing and gorgeous; I've never seen anything like it before. The images and lyrics of the song match perfectly. There is well-chosen symbolism representing the events of the anime. I still don't understand all the symbolism... I like how they incorporate real-life images into the animation like the hand that represents Mr. Outside.

Overall, this is a ... must-watch for fans. The images of the video capture me every time. Glimpses of the outlines of the two main characters are included just like in the opening for the anime. Actually, a good bit of the animation from the opening is used in the video...I like that about the video, though. I also like how the lyrics of the song is posted in creative ways throughout the video. The only downside to the video is that I think it's a little repetitive, but the song is also repetitive which makes sense, I guess.
