| Amazing :D It didn't actually do a lot but I loved the story reminds me of something. Dunno what. 8/10 |
 |
| Been a while since I last cried. Damn you Tekken. |
 |
| Some japanese animation shorts I've seen have been laughably terrible, some of them average, but this one was just brilliant. It shows the highest-end of storytelling that can surprisingly be done in just over 3 minutes. Compelling stuff. |
| Haven't fapped this hard since the movie "Up" was released. Great job! |
| For a 3-4 minute video, this is amazing. |
| Wow, that was actually really good. |
 |
A very effective use of 3 minutes! The use of the pendulum was well done and for those 3 minutes, the Feels Train was running hard. Good stuff..... 9/10 |
 |
| That hurt my eyes, the pendulum was too fast. Anyways it was pretty good despite its short time it delivered a message well. 7/10 |
| My fucking heart. Honestly. Oh shit, I'm still crying. |
 |
| kinda pretentious 1/10 |
| This is why I hate time. It feels so slow when nothing's happening yet too damn fast when you look back on it and there's nothing ya can do about it :'/ Idk why but comedians are always the saddest people xD The feels I had was enough to make me not realize that the guy died out of exhaustion before the girl until the 3rd watch and I was still tearing up by that time. |
 |
| Am I the only one who laughed my ass off at how mundane and pathetic those everymen lives unfolded? I think that comical effect was intentional, kinda satirical in a way. The ending was touching though. |
| Damn, that was some emotional shit right there... |

| I didn't cry but it was still rather touching and uniquely animated. 6/10 |
  |
| Shortest feel trip I ever had. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| First short anime I gave an 8, and it was worth it. It was short while the art was simple but hey did it deliver one powerful story that almost brought me to tears, especially when the old man wanted to stop time in order to do spend time with his loyal and loving wife. The wife's love didn't falter, unlike him who went astray along the way, I guess men are like that in life. This writer is a good one, to be able to tell such good story without using words and short at that too with a touch of a simple art. |

Full version of this film on Tekken's YouTube channel (4:30 duration). I do miss the original track by Muse, which is incredible to listen to on its own. Furiko originally featured the third part of Muse's Exogenesis: Symphony, however I recommend listening to all three parts together (YouTube). Still stands as one of the greatest short films ever made. |

| Simple and short, and yet really powerful and amazing. I even shed a tear while watching it. Especially heart-breaking was the moment when the husband tried to futilely stop the pendulum. |
| This short anime movie definitely delivered its message, which was presented a pendulum as an allegory to passing time. Sometimes slowly, sometimes faster, but always inexorably. Definitely "Furiko" is worth watching and to me it was an unique experience for sure. |
| I felt that the singing at the end weakened the impact a little. But it still was a really emotional watch, especially considering the very short length. |
 |
| And this was directed by a comedian T_T 9/10 |
 |
| Its simple, yet, so touching. The lesson behind the pendulum of the time was so hit, and the last scene was just amazingly impactful. Good lords, the man found out his fault and dying like that was so hurt. Rest in peace, for a better together moments for both of them, than whatever happened at their previous lifes. The time has never come to stop. So, better step it carefully, if you don't want to lost your precious thing. 8/10. |

| Great short, would recommend to everyone 9/10. |
 |
| Wow, it was so interesting, beautiful and emotional |
 |
| Quite emotional. Not bad for a 4 minute short. |
 |
| and i still cried after 3rd rewatch |
| heartbreaking and beautiful |

| I come back to this every few years. Especially since the Muse song on it, not sure why, it just evokes even more tears out of me. Probably because I am getting older and it resonates deeper each time. |
 |
| I just rewatched this again and even though I've seen it like 3-4 times before it made me cry again lol. |
