This one is for sure the most ancient piece of Japanese animation that I have seen, but its a good piece of history. And the best thing is that it has been fansubbed for our historical hunger and pleasure.

The little film is a black and white pretty old version of a karaoke song. We have a song playing and the Japanese characters coming and going along with the lyrics, pretty much in a modern Karoke fashion telling us about the Harvesting theme. This shows us how far back Japanese people have been into Karaoke and how important it must be for them.

Watching this ancient short made me stare at the screen.

I even watched it 3 times. It definitely has to be one of the more obscure, intriguing and WTF entries here on MAL.

The chorus is catchy. Found myself humming Dom-dom hya-la-la, dom hya-la-la the second time I watched it.

The master of cut-out and silhouette animation Ofuji Noburo did an impressive job animating it.

Story is ultra short, and still he manages to get the message through. A celebration and homage to life, prosperity and the gods.
