"Can anime be considered art?"

Well if you have ever seen the "ef" series before, then you already know the answer, as the anime has been well known for it's artistic style and drama, not seen often in a romance series. As the name of this title says, this version of the series is simply a 4 minute prologue to the first season (ef - a tale of memories). It gives little samples of what is expected to come in the actual anime. From Miyako and Kei's rivalry, to the growing friendship between Hiro and Chihiro!

Story
Food for thought passage was a nice way of starting. Allows viewers to question one's own adventures and reflect. What proceeded shortly after was a bit confusing. From the little i know from the show and that is only information provided from this prologue, it is about memories. Although it was clear how the subject was going to be presented. For example, is plot going to be an amnesiac gathering lost memories? An elderly person reflecting on memories of good and bad as they pop in mind? As for conclusion it seemed to be on a different note than the introduction.
