Fumiko’s Confession

"Indeed, but its not like the usual type of animation, it has something different"

quality.

where is SUBs??????

Willie E. Coyote style

I wish more Animes were like that aleast finally someone made a Anime that made was comical to understand!

cute.
though fumiko's last lines were too fast for my ears.

Amazing, reminds me of Mind Game

Yeeesh x.x

Ctrl+c ANN , ctrl+v here, add "loli pantsu" phrase and there you have it, brand new article.

nice to see that this was posted in the news.
I found it and thought it was worthy to be here.

It's slapstick, but it's good slapstick - short and simple. Reminds me of all the nostalgic Loony Toons that I used to watch.

awesome animation \m/

Reminds me of something you would see before a movie starts.

This has a "French" style of cartooning...nice cultural mix going on here.

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.

he is must gay

Damn, I lol'd

HAHAHA that was hilarious, awesome animation and really good chara design.

I love when she hits the slide XD

Very Nice!

Absolutely hilarious, somebody hire those people now :D

hmmm goos effect of animation, good comedy, but, the sound it's strange,..... version cartoon, not good combination with anime

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!

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.

Absolutely hilarious.

A hilarious story of boy meets girl, girl meets boy, girl admits attraction to him, girl get's the hell out of dodge in the funniest way, girl meets boy again, girl passes out. What better story.

Definitely worth extending.

Whahaha! EPIC anime! The girl who leapt through town, anyone? 0wo

IMAX3D.FUKKEN.WHERE? >w<

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

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 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.

All this talent - and he's only 21!!!

Somebody hire this kid and fast.

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

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.

It's a wonder she didn't hit the powerlines and die

she cant fly :D

Lol... Takasu-Kun...

Everything's better with orchestral music.

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.

Nobody sees FLCL in this? Cause that's all I could think of.

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.

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.

reminds me of Goof Troop for some reason... if Goof Troop had panties, that is.

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?

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.

what did she say in the end??

i think he responded with something about baseball

That guy's hopeless = ="...

Rejecting the girl because he wants to focus on playing baseball??

Hmmmm, maybe he's satisfied with the bat...

this so reminded me of looney toons

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.

It's all downhill from here.

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.
