Hmm, what to say. Well it's certainly different from anything out there, all done in black and white but with some nice details. For story, well I didn't catch one and that didn't help when the characters didn't speak. Though I know some stories are told by the character's actions but I didn't catch any either.

Still, a nice watch.

It was OK. Uhmm that's just about it since I didn't get if there was a story, message or whatever.

I don't think there is a narrative. It's a visual-art piece, like an abstract painting. I've never been able to get very much out of those, myself.

Yeah it seems like it was just supposed to be art, no story. It had some good art but I couldn't see it very well. Everything is so damn gray.

The sound saved this one, the art is good but the sound is so much better.

If we're listing favourites here, this has to be at the bottom of the three works Kojirou Shishido has done so far. Nakedyouth being my fave.

I didn't might their being voices as well in black and white. Black and white is never something that has brother me seeing as I like many other black and white films.

Reminded me of Shinkai's early works (Tooi Sekai/Kanojo to Kanojo no Neko).

This was pretty boring and a bit of pointless, but the animation Visual was superb.
