Please tell me they used some kind of botting program to get likes, I refuse to believe those are legitimate, that would honestly be really depressing. This whole production was a thing of beauty, and I came here hoping that trash was off the front page, and what I got was the complete opposite. Aside from stupid review system that doesn't allow disagree or point out wrong things with review, people are annoyed by constant shilling Sony pulled with this AMV. Well considering 1/10th of the amount of the people that clicked helpful actually rated it a 1/10 I do believe that some just like going on the bandwagon. He sure did a fantastic job at trying to bait people. Then again, it's just a rating that someone else gave it. People experience all things differently anyway, I do think a 1 is a bit extreme especially considering what the person refered to in his review. |

| Insanely spectacular. I cried and couldn't hold back. Watching it for the first time while alongside my best friend (that is, the first time I watched it i was with my best friend) made it even better. 10/10, would definitely watch again. And have. |

| Love the music. Like the animation. Didn't really get into the story. |
"Be the change you wish to see in the world."  |
| well that was short and something..... |
 |
| mind blowing combination of pictures, sound and plot that made my tears to come....definitely it's a masterpiece that longed only for 6 minutes |
 |
| I give it a 3/10. I would have liked to see this actually progress. |
 |
| It was nice but I don't get why the father never went with her... If he has the means and the knowledge to build such a spacecraft, why not make it big enough for the both of them? |
| This was beautiful. Reminds me a lot of Hoshi no Koe, which managed to compress a story within a couple of minutes in a way that felt original and compelling. |
 |
| This is the first time I've seen a music video.... tbh I didn't even know this was a music video until I watched it and saw it was only 6 minutes long. But I still loved it. It made my eyes water. This was, for the lack of a better word, beautiful. |

| I've watched far to much anime up to this point and also listened to way too much music to consider this anything more then "good". Maybe the hypetrain ruined it for me "OMG HAVE YOU WATCHED SHELTER?! ITS SO GOOD YOU WILL LOVE IT" - maybe this works on "mainstream" people who listen to radio all day and watch nothing but ecchi anime. But I personally dont really like the song, I was expecting far more from these guys. The animation was obviously good, but you would expect this from a short video. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| It's very pretty. The music was upbeat. The story isn't all that original, but it's worth checking out to see what the fuss was about. Average 5/10 |
 |
| I agree 100%. Sometimes short stories are the best because they force the creators to be creative and it ends up turning out really well. The art was stunning, the music was a good choice. Overall a really cool short. Smudy said: It was seriously mindblowing. How to convey an amazing story in just 6 minutes. The animation was INSANE, sakuga all the way. This deserves a 9/10 from my side, i watched it like 20 times already. Goes into my top 10 favourites. Also, this should be Type: Anime. |
 |
| Interesting animation with a great music!!! Apocalipsis arrives although this girl leaves in her dreams, the future of the humanity!!!!! ;) |
| This is such a great song <3 |

| eh isn't this technically a Music Video for a non-Japanese song? Surprised this has a page in MAL. |
Revvie-chan said: Yeah, but the music video is done by a japanese staff and studio (A-1 Pictures) so its ok.eh isn't this technically a Music Video for a non-Japanese song? Surprised this has a page in MAL. |
 |
| This really makes me question whether or not I could withstand being stuck by myself in a virtual reality for eternity. I give props to the Dad for doing whatever he could to save his kid, but sending her into a life of no social interaction is kind of depressing. I think he should have made the most out of the time he had left with her, rather than isolating himself to work on her shuttle. Sorry for being so negative. :P |
 |
| How come Rin's father isn't listed as a character. He has a very important role imo. |
 |
| Music was good and the story was exceptional. |

| 6 mins, the title say it all. the word shelter has impactful meaning in this musical anime. how I wish they plan to expand the storyline about this and made into movie, sequel or prequel, I just wanna see how the story goes. |
 |
| One of the most amazing and moving videos I have ever seen. I really enjoy Madeon's music, been listening for a couple of years now. 10/10. |

| PORTERRRRRRRRR <3 YAS. ANIME MUSIC VIDEO? Fucking REPRESENT!!!!!!!!!! lolol The song is catchy and the visuals are beautiful. 8/10 |
| Deep, meaningful and beautiful. |

| Often it's said that a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case, six minutes of stunning visuals and vivid imagery can't be completely measured no matter how many words of praise I offer. Both brilliant and beautiful, this manages to send me through a surge of varying emotions. Initially I'm captivated by a sense of wonder and innocent curiosity. This girl who seemingly has so much freedom that she can create worlds and let her imagination run wild. The sense that something is amiss when she makes contact with the swing. The warm sensation when she sees flashbacks of the time she spent with her father. And I mean, come on. She's just so adorable! The heartwrenching agony when I realize she's a prisoner to solitude, only able to go on living that way because of the memories she holds dear. I also appreciate how the song was in English, as the lyrics really resonated throughout the video. It's just so incredible to think about how an entire life story can be told through music and imagery like this in the span of minutes. 9/10 |
 |
| Very overrated. I get its deep, but deep doesn't make it anything special. 5/10. I liked it, just nothing more than average.. |
 |
| I don´t usually give 10 to short stuff. I don´t even give them a grade, but this is the biggest exception. |

In the message he wrote for his daughter it was stated, that he would have wanted to come with her, but it was impossible (either because of the resources or time he had before the unknown planet crushes into earth). So he had no other choice then sacrifice himself for saving his own child. |

| @grave_robber: The translation of the letter: Youtube Commentary by Kevin Malenich said: This is the translation of the letter at the end from r/anime: To Rin From : Dad There was just so little time left after you were born. I don't know how much love I managed to pour into raising you after your mother died... But your smile kept me going. (^_^) I would like to have come with you, but I couldn't. I wanted you to forget everything and move on... I knew you'd be alright. But you'll get lonely, and remember. I know you'll grow strong, and read this letter some day. I really wish we could have spent more time together. I'm sorry. You were so young back then, too young to understand what they meant. So let me repeat... My final words to you. |
|
| It was ok. Would have grade it higher in case of more reasonable plot (even though it has only couple of minutes length). However art/animation/character design/etc are decent. Music is nothing special. |
| Not absolutely amazing as some say or as bad as others say. This was an enjoyable and certainly pretty short with a simple message that was told well enough: You're never completely alone with good memories, nor will anyone completely leave you when you have those memories of them. And the music is of course great if you're into the genre and/or artist. |

| Great animation but loud music, it's hard to make out the lyrics not to mention the upbeat song doesn't blend well with that tiny story - 4/10 The same animation combined with a more slow paced calmer song where the voice of the singer was clear would be have made it great. |
| how am i 2 years late for this???? this was just beautiful |

| i dont think this is a total masterpiece like others think, but i understand the beauty people see with it. 7/10. |
| An incredible combination of musical and visual storytelling the likes of which I don't think we'll ever see again in this format. |
| "People always say that you can't please everybody. I think that's a cop-out. Why not attempt it? 'Cause think of all the people you will please if you try." - Kanye West   |
| The visuals were good, but I didn't like the music at first. After hearing it a few more times the song really grew on me, though :). Btw, small Rin in the sandbox is really adorable. |
| :cri: I heard the anime will release in 2020.. is that confirmed? |
