Art: Uses shadows and highlights to help form cloud like shapes to that are morphed into shapes that move around a space like atmosphere. It looks to be 3D animated and its pretty smooth but breaks it smoothness for some lyrical change. The words flow across the music video as spoke often moving to highlight intensity of music. The art uses close up and far away shapes to show musical changes through perspective.
Music
The music is japanese rap with percussion in the background. It flows really nicely as it matches the abstract visuals of the different instruments, lyrics, and sound used.

Kitsutsuki Keikaku
(Anime)
add
Kitsutsuki Keikaku is a puppet style animation it follows three guys as they train woodpeckers to attack the city. It almost is a anime spy movie.
The animation is very simple with not much movement or expressive use of arms and legs. It has great color that provides a unique sots and perspectives. The vehicle designs also add some added intrigue. It has some pretty great jazz music throughout. The voice acting was fine but their is very few voice lines any way so it's unnoticeable. For being from it's time period it's a interesting piece to study. It's a worth watching film because of it's ...

Xiao Xiong De Lu Xing
(Anime)
add
Xiao Xiong De Lu Xing is a 1955 anime about a group of animals who left their friend and the suddenly the friend which is a bear wakes up and tries to find them.
It was made using stop motion animation and it overall all looks pretty good for when it was made. This anime is fully dubbed in jappenese and all the characters have voices and very expressive ranges. There is pretty delightful background music throughout the tale. Nothing too intense or unfamiliar. The plot is pretty boring with not much really going beyond expectations but its a story that will provide a sense of familiar wonder. It was ...

Platonic Chain: Web
(Anime)
add
Animation quality. This might have been considered to of the line 3d animation when it came out but now it is painful to look at. The images on screen look shakey and it just looks like a bad pov. It feels crowded and a little too high energy. Basically if it moves like stick figures with anime girl bodies. The background feels like what google earth would be if it came out before the first smart phone. It feel like this would significantly better if they animated it like a normal anime for the time.
Audio. There's not much to say it's fine. Plot. It's fine ...

Souya Monogatari
(Anime)
add
Souya Monogatari is anime made by Ashi productions and Toei animation. It follows the journey of the Souya boat as it travels through Japans first expedition to Antarctica. Most of the character interaction may be fictional but overall follows the story of the characters aboard the ship. It's is kinda of like the anime A Place Farther Than The Universe but with no moe elements.
The character design is pretty standard for the time and over all looks pretty basic. There is quite a few animation errors but overall they don't hinder the animes story. The water and ships do look quite good though. The OP ...

Heart Cocktail
(Anime)
add
Heart Cocktail came out in 1986 and is about various romantic stories that last around two to three minutes.
The animation quality various from episode a little but overall looks like a very well transitioned PowerPoint presentation. If you compare it to something like the 1985 anime Twinkle Nora Rock Me it looks way better but if compare it to most anime it would be bellow average animation. The art itself it pretty good for the time. It just didn't have a large amount of movement. The romance in this episode various in quality. It's like a three minutes Hallmark movie. It doesn't have a lot ...

Iketeru Futari
(Anime)
add
This anime, held up to modern shows in the same gerne is now kind of generic. It is very effective in showing a lot of fan service but ultimately has a undeveloped plot. The plot has the potential to be ahead of it's time and very intriguing but it fails on most fronts to be compelling. It feals like there was something holding it back from being an above average anime. The animation is very dynamic and almost lively. It has a lot of energy but over all looks dated and poorly aged. Comparing to shows that came out around that time it looks slightly
