I had a dream like this once. I was running faster and faster and could not slow down. It was really scary and I didn't wake up until I was going like 100km/h flew down a hill to my certain demise.
This video bring up bad memories.
It is a common dream, I had it too more than once. The author did probably had it too. BTW this animation is really awesome.
Dejavu? Had a similar dream similar to this one. Kept on accelerating on and on. I thought it ain't gonna stop til eventually, I fell of my bed and hit the ground hard on my face...
Seems like a common dream, yes. I had a dream like that too. Though, I always realize I wouldn't die even if I crashed in something. Rather, that I were always able to block and reduce the damage.
i often have that kinda dream, tho normally im on a waterslide
ps this reminds me a bit of city escape from that sonic game
holy shit....even i had this kinda dream.... but in my case i was running away from a zombie or smthin...at least thats how it started then began the unstoppable accelration vision
I too have had similar dreams, and I do agree. The animations was superb, and i can't stop watching/laughing at it. Truly a well made video.
simmiliar dream... the difference is when i jump, dunno why i can fly
I had a similar dream, only I could controal it. on or off, runing at incredible speed. and able to skid to a stop with no pain. dreams are awsome.
Well it happened to my brother in real life (not dream).
We raced to go down at (I forgot what place it is, but it has long stairs).
My brother can not stop himself, but thank god, somebody catch him.
A psychologist would likely tell you that you, in the back of your mind, can tell that you're time is passing unused and thet you are headed to the point where there is no going back from the waste of talents you will become.
Or something :3
I've never had a dream like that, but the closest I probably got is a dream where I tried to jump a short flight of stairs on top of a landing, only to have the landing seem to stretch further and further away as I kept falling faster and faster. The dream ended when the landing stopped stretching away from me.
Hive-subconscious?
i only had dreams of the opposite
Yep, had that dream too. In my case I was falling through the branches of a HUGE tree.
Great animation by the way, I loved this!
Very good for independently produced.
Is this really independent? I remember the at :33 from FLCL or Fooly Cooly whatever you want to call it. Kinda seems like their style a bit too.
It says it's independently produced in the article.
Wow, this means theres no professional Studio behind it? Looks rather awesome for that.
Also I agree, the style kind of reminds me of FLCL but also a little bit of Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo for some reason...
Indeed, but its not like the usual type of animation, it has something different
It reminds people of FLCL because of the music used in it, it's from the FLCL soundtrack.
FuriKuri's third episode. It's the same song.
I loved this video.
Well, at least the music (start: 0:31) is stolen from the FLCL soundtrack. The song is called "Yorii Gallop" ...
well independent nowadays means just ripping off someones elses work anyway.
FYI, that music was composed by Dmitri Kabalevsky who died years before FLCL was made. By your logic, FLCL ripped off someone else's work.
This music was also used on Card Captor Sakura, Azumanga Daioh, I think even in they used it in Lucky Star.
This is a classic tune, like Moonlight Sonata or Kanon, you can hear it in many movies out there.
it's from "The Comedians". don't worry, you'll only feel silly for like 20 minutes before you forget about it and are ready to be ignorant on the internet again.
The song "Comedian's Gallop" by Dmitri Kabalevsky from Opus 26: The Comedians, suite for small orchestra (1938-1940) was also borrowed for FLCL, and Azumanga Daioh.
it's a nice little cartoon. props to this independent anime! and agreed it looks like FLCL.
This music was also played in FLCL. And yes, it really has the same crazy FoolyCooly feel to it.
Usually, independently stuff in animation are better animated than studios who are bounded (just look at Kadokawa).
Because they work without such a severe deadline, and they can afford it to do things they want (I heard from my teacher -who's a professional animator- that sometimes, distributors don't allow you to even correct some flaws in your animation).
Yea I like the animation it's awesome
Foori...koori.......sukaaa?
I am both itimately familiar with the music from my Pillows OST and the wacky, wacky style.
Awesome. So it did get an article. Glad we can get more info on it =)
really nice one.
It's all downhill from here.
How the hell did he beat her there!?
The first bit could have actually been her imagining him rejecting her instead of an actual rejection. Maybe.
Or it's just funnier that way.
I see what you did there.
Reminds me of those shorts from the 90's American animation company would produce to show before a big feature film at the theater. Sad they no longer produce good 2d.
Yeah it's alot like that isn't it? In any case I really liked this. I could only understand half of what they were saying, but it was really well drawn for being independent.
And then she became the light!She understood everything on universe and became God! The End
its like one of those Pixar shorts before the main disney movie feature. Those are really good in themselves as well and this is extremely similiar.
So I wasn't the only one that was reminded of an American animated movie while watching this.
what did she say in the end??
i think he responded with something about baseball
She said that she'll make him miso soup every morning, and he responded that he wants to focus on baseball. Twice.
that miso soup line is the traditional japanese marriage proposal.
Ahhh, didn't know that. Thanks for clarifying. Actually learnt something today =)
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY ABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTT!!
XD it's kinda like old classical American animation... very well animated!!
thats why it's so funny cuz she asks him out, flies all over the place, then asks him to marry her!
loses to baseball both times :/
sounds like, i'll make you miso soup every morning.
That guy's hopeless = ="...
Rejecting the girl because he wants to focus on playing baseball??
Hmmmm, maybe he's satisfied with the bat...
And the balls... Of the pitcher of course... XD
The ball's touching the bat!! GAHHH!!!
not only that, the ball is getting smacked around by the bat as well
Wait, are the balls touching?
no, usually there's just one ball in the game .. um ..
That's only during the game. After the game, all the balls go together in the box, don't they? ;)
ALL the balls.
LMAO !!!!!!!! xD
The balls touch in the empire's sack.
To add insult to injury (or the other way around) she even took a baseball to the face in the middle of the video.
On the bright side, she had some action with the ball. Albeit, not his ball.
this so reminded me of looney toons
Oh My God, right? But the animation reminds me of Disney...
pretty good animation
how the fuk did that boy ended up below faster than her?
and why is there not clothes line along the way that will slice her head off
Anime.
Don't ask for more.
we don't want this to end up as happy tree friends, wouldn't we??
wut?
Just a sick and fucked up cartoon for fucked up people. People actually compare them to some anime.
as far as I can tell it's basically western animated guro.... and no one has problems with this?
Okay, you guys are clearly stupid. I was talking about happy tree friends, if you are saying that is not pretty much guro you are either stupid or in denial.
It is however completely unlike this show and most anime.
Is there a subbed version of this?
why bother? there's hardly any lines and those few lines are simple enough to get the idea.
Man did she get some hangtime. And thats one hell of a steeply angled town/city.
lols ha ha yeah xD
Probably more common among mountain towns. I myself have trouble in the upper decks of stadiums.
Nagasaki is famous with steep towns.
It's art is anime, but for some strange reason the animation and the antics feels so western...
don't forget to mention d music...
Not bad... not bad at all.
One of the most annoying high quality piece of shit I've ever seen.
...and thats the most annoying high quality piece of shit post I've ever seen.
That really reminded me of the Animaniacs cartoons I used to watch as a kid for some reason...
I think the music is what did it.
SPOT ON FRIEND!! SPOT ON!!
I couldn't discern what it was reminding me. The thought was at the back of my head.
I'm impressed! I would love to see more :D
My japanese skill barely helped all I got was "please" the rest was too fast I guess i'm just have weak listening skills. TT-TT but for the first time in a long while I can say that was delightful. It reminds me of better times when Disney still made 2D movies. The art style was weird and I didn't think i'd like it but I love it. This independent studio better get some sort of deal and lots of money because that actually was different from the stuff you see these days despite the pantsu shots. No huge glossy eyes or rainbow hair or huge oppai or super moe just a girl and a boy. We need more stuff like this.
I second this notion. While Oppai, moe, gotta have blue hair and more have their place, it would be nice to see more works like this. I could see a non moe Drama/slice of life being made on the principle of the short. Sure, it would probably only be a few episodes, but it would have a lot more charm than a lot of the anime that seems popular now.
This reminds me of those wacky cartoon shorts they used to broadcast over ten years ago. Begins with some problem, has the main character go through a whole bunch of random unrelated crap, then uses a punch line referencing the beginning.
On another note, that is a really high and steep hill for so much residential housing, and that guy must move really fast to outrun a person falling from the sky down a hill.
Nobody sees FLCL in this? Cause that's all I could think of.
cos of the school sports festival music that was playing wich was also used in an episode of FLCL mabye
Oh god, Warner Bros flashback.
I loved this. Probably one of the only examples I've seen where mixing western and eastern animation styles worked out perfectly.
That BGM during the fall... hahaha.
That guy's got some other really awesome stuff on his yourube page.
This needs to become a full-length anime, and fast.
Is this suppose to be funny? or even cute? It's fucking retarded! WTF is wrong with you people? Too much anime in your life?
maybe you just don't have enough
Stop posting.
reminds me of Goof Troop for some reason... if Goof Troop had panties, that is.
wow this was pretty damn good
poor girl, got rejected twice and nearly died all on the same day
still a good short though
Is it just me or is the music from Azumanga Daioh (the sports fest theme)?
Wow. When I first read the post I wasn't expecting anything near that level. Bravo.
i can see the future a short tv series of it in japan soon!!!
Finally a free runner to beat Altair in gravity defying stunt
I think that's going to be a level in Mirror's Edge 2.
Hmm so basically the girl says "I will make miso soup for you every morning." and then the I-am-going-to-die-alone shounen says "I am sorry I need to concentrate on baseball."
.....
...
..
.
Lolwut? ┐('~`;)┌
Wow, even in cheap independently produced anime shorts Japanese men are utterly hopeless.
The term "herbivore" comes to mind for some reason.
Now all we need from Artefact is 2ch's response to this and its true portrayal of their population problem...

It's not that they're hopeless, women are the ones to blame. http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2009/11/10/japanese-marriage-according-to-google/
Damn, damn, damn... This is so awesome! It's such an awesome blend of anime and (what reminds me of) classic western cartoons. The story, the music, and the humor remind me of when cartoon shorts were an actual art form - not throwaway entertainment for kids below age 12.
I can't put into words how awesome this is. I applaud the quality of this short. It's better than so many of the things I see, especially when it comes to western animation, which has either become 3D or is 2D and made in Flash with no actual care. I want to see more of this.
The music is the best. Classical music used to be a cornerstone of classic western animation and it's become sadly ignored.
The song is "Galloping Comedians" by Dmitri Borisovich Kabalevsky. FLCL fans are right to say this is familiar to them: It was used in the anime and is even included in the OST (and is, in my opinion, the best rendition of the song EVER.) If you watch internet flash animations, you'll also know this song from "Dad's at Work".
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw0oQ4sD4us
is it just me, or was her reaction at the end inspired by Yui?
Zoom~ right off the slide! This brilliantly epic!
Slide was awesome, the short in general was so fluid that it was very fun to watch
simply cool, way cool!!!
To the people saying this is like FLCL: I do see the visual similarities, but absolutely no one mentioned that the same music is used in FLCL episode 3. That's probably helping you to make the comparison.
Gainex was an a fan produced group of men who loved all things Anime. The power of desktops now give us this and so much more.
OMG! This was SOOO funny. XDDDD
This is why you should not run if your town is on a hill!
Glad you wrote an article on it.
lol'd at the kid's expression when she flies by the slide at 1:11.
Haha yay the music which is at the start of the Ebichu movies haha.
What is so goddamn awesome about pantsu? Japanese ones don't even look that great - they're the big white granny knickers. Srsly whats the hype over them?
Ummm and something else I wanted to say... but I forget. maybe it was why are her limbs so skinny? haha
it was quite good. only maybe little too long.
didn't enjoy that at all
Don't worry, I found it to be typical trash too with its only merit being its smooth animation. Couldn't care for the ugly character designs and overblown embarrassment of the female character.
Simply magical.
I see the new DLC levels for Sonic Unleashed have become more and more elaborate...
reminds me of two things ....
1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GW1pJMAkaVY
2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2BgjH_CtIA
bloody brilliant!
So the girl flew through the city at sonic speed right after being rejected... and the boy still manage to be at the bottom of the hill before her ? Man he must be quite the runner when playing baseball :D
''So the girl flew through the city at sonic speed right after being rejected... and the boy still manage to be at the bottom of the hill before her ?''
This must be the millionth time I see people say this. Wth is wrong with you people? Do you think you're the only one who noticed the obvious so you feel inclined to spread the word? No imagination these days what so ever!
HEY MORON'S!! IT'S TWO DIFFERENT KIDS! the first kid has a pocket on his shirt, the second one doesn't.
Yeah, and how come when Daffy Duck has something blow up in his face and blast his bill to the back of his head, he can still talk? His tongue and esophagus and stuff should still be in front, right?
pretty good but it had that cartoon feel to it, cause she wasn't bound to normal laws of reality for no apparent reason.
Anybody that have seen ed, edd and eddy would get that.
I must say, this is very unrealistic. Several physical laws, if not most of them, are broken constantly through the clip. I am very disappointed, as obviously, the creator hasn't put much thought in it and oversaw his obvious fallacies which contradict modern quantum physics, relativistic physics, and hell, even the classic physics.
You do realize that the whole point of animation is the ability to break out of realism right?
Hahaha I hope you're joking, buddy...
....fairly certain u are.
It's a little sad that it's become a little difficult to tell, considering the sheer number of people that will make posts like that in all seriousness.
You know every time you bring real world physics into a discussion on an animated story God kills a catgirl.
Please think of the catgirls.
Catgirls are very unrealistic and contradict modern biology, anyway.
^
and then a catgirl died. thats your fault.
it's a good thing that I played little busters EX and learned the nihonggo for baseball, the baseball thing made it funnier. although I didn't understand the miso soup part, thanks for clarifying.
Independent production? This is better than most anime that professional studios make
That was awesome. Most crazy-ass fun anime I've seen since FLCL.
love it!
Very nice efforts.
Reminds me of the popular flash games.. involving bicycles if I recall correctly.
....
Nanaca Crash!!!
awesome, just need subs.
SUBS
FUKKEN
WHERE
HERE IS YOUR SUBS:
girl: Please go out with me!
boy: Sorry! Right now, i want to focus on baseball!
girl(flying): Takashi-kun!
girl: I'll make miso soup for you at your home every morning!
boy: Sorry! I really want to focus on baseball!
Teh end.
Translation by mulrich.
Worst translation ever. Too literal. Including honorifics? Typesetting is awful, and the timing is off too. Karaoke where? Voted 1/10 on AniDB.
Tete(animator&creator of this) is awesome (^_^)b
even just the story board is awesome enough
Everything's better with orchestral music.
awesome animation \m/
It's slapstick, but it's good slapstick - short and simple. Reminds me of all the nostalgic Loony Toons that I used to watch.
I was thinking the exact same thing when I saw it
nice to see that this was posted in the news.
I found it and thought it was worthy to be here.
Yeeesh x.x
Ctrl+c ANN , ctrl+v here, add "loli pantsu" phrase and there you have it, brand new article.
It does seem like a lot of Sankaku articles are rather like that. Take an article, throw in a bunch of otaku buzzwords (even if they're inaccurate, don't make sense, or ridiculously exaggerated), grab a vaguely related picture off the booru (or in at least one recent article, apparently just a picture the writer liked), and bam, instant blog entry.
Eventually there will be an article that just says "Loli pantsu oppai rapist chikan anime waifu" and has a picture of Asuka in a test plugsuit.
That would be the ultimate Sankaku article.
Reminds me of something you would see before a movie starts.
This has a "French" style of cartooning...nice cultural mix going on here.
Damn, I lol'd
HAHAHA that was hilarious, awesome animation and really good chara design.
I love when she hits the slide XD
he is must gay
let me guess your a girl right
Extremely impressive, though one thing bothers me, isn't the guy at school when she went running and ended up at the bottom of the town, that guy was there. He's much faster.
I guess independent and amateur are not the same thing, because this looks way too good
Absolutely brilliant. Shame more anime isn't as kinetic as this.
Amazing, reminds me of Mind Game
cute.
though fumiko's last lines were too fast for my ears.
Willie E. Coyote style
"Indeed, but its not like the usual type of animation, it has something different"
quality.
where is SUBs??????
I wish more Animes were like that aleast finally someone made a Anime that made was comical to understand!
All this talent - and he's only 21!!!
Somebody hire this kid and fast.
HEY MORON'S!! IT'S A DIFFERENT KID! the first kid has a pocket on his shirt, the second one doesn't.
reminding people of both FLCL and Looney Tunes makes sense. similar character design and colour palette as FLCL, and plus same music used from a scene that FLCL styled after Looney Tunes.
Ahaha. You know what's the weirdest thing? Right before coming here, I saw that video.
It's amazing up until right after the shirt. If she goes that fast and down at that speed, wouldn't her legs break suddenly at the ground? XD
It's so great - he turns her down twice because he loves baseball more than her ..... and between the two rejections she gets cracked right in the face with - you guessed it - a baseball!
This is a most excellent piece of work.
Karma +10000000
Hey she still has a chance! She only has 2 strikes ~anything can happen~
The dynamics are very amazing in this video, along with a vague, but funny storyline (although, for 2 minutes, it's enough).
If I did my math correctly (because I'm bored), in real-life, she would've been falling at a climax at 34-45 mph (55-72kph) given that those storefronts had a width of 15-2o feet. Which is impressive for a someone her size.
The Pisa Tower has nothing on this girl's fall. :O
It's a wonder she didn't hit the powerlines and die
she cant fly :D
Lol... Takasu-Kun...
While the style is fundamentally anime, it seems to be a fusion with american direction in terms of the exaggerated movement. I haven't seen an anime try to have 3d movement in a long time, so it's a refreshing change of pace.
While I say it's american in style, latey, american cartoons have abandoned this style seemingly completely in favor of a cheap flat 2d presentation. Although, the same cn be said of animes these days which only give the illusion of actual movement with panning.
hmmm goos effect of animation, good comedy, but, the sound it's strange,..... version cartoon, not good combination with anime
Absolutely hilarious, somebody hire those people now :D
Very Nice!
This short reminded me of that climactic scene from Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo ^_^. only without all the deep pathos and sense of desperation and life hanging in the balance and all that stuff. A+ work here!
How did that even happen? she was running away... from him
end up going really fast downway all the time non stop...
and sudenly she meets him again?....
wtf
Whahaha! EPIC anime! The girl who leapt through town, anyone? 0wo
IMAX3D.FUKKEN.WHERE? >w<
Here's the English translation, except for that triangular sign I can't quite translate:
Title: Fumiko's Confession (of love).
Fumiko: Um, um -- PLEASE GO OUT WITH ME!
Takashi: I'm sorry! Right now I want to focus on baseball.
*While running*
Fumiko: Takashi-kun you idiot! (baka)
*When sees him walking below*
Fumiko: Takashi-kun!
*After landing*
Fumiko: ... I'll make miso soup for you every morning!
Takashi: I'm sorry! Right now I want to focus on baseball.
*End*
There are only two characters listed in the credits right at the beginning. Fumiko by "Hina" and Takashi by someone whose name I can't quite figure out.
About the pocket: Let's not forget this is not a professional animation, and even those have mistakes and inconsistencies.
