Akemi Hayashi (Gainax; Character Designer, Fruits Basket) - Namida no Mukou/From the Other Side of the Tears
______i liked the art but it was ridiculously depressing

Michael Arias (Studio 4°C; Director, Tekkonkinkreet) - Okkakekko
______"Frolicking" this was my favorite i wish they could make an anime out of it. i loved when the music stopped so suddenly and the mood changed out of nowhere.

Satoshi Kon (Madhouse; Director, Paprika) - Ohayō/Good Morning
______also another favorite. i love the idea.

Kazuto Nakazawa (Studio 4°C; First Unit Director, Kill Bill Chapter 3: The Origin of O-Ren from Kill Bill: Volume 1) - "yurururu" ~Nichijou Hen~
______this was funny and really cool to watch.

Shōji Kawamori (Satelight; Director, The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love?) - Project Omega
______this was also really funny

Yasufumi Soejima (Gonzo; 3D/CG Director, Last Exile) - Hyotoko/Blaze Man
______man this was total fail for me...

Shinji Kimura (Studio 4°C; Art Director, Steamboy) - title: Attack of Higashimachi Ni Chome/Attack of Higashimachi 2nd Burough
______LOL they ran out of money!

That was truly awesome. I love it when different artists get together to create one big production...or in this case, 15 different ones!

Hyotoko/Blaze Man reminded me of Haseo from .Hack//G.U.

I really liked this, it gave a good feeling of how everyone feels each morning. As expected of Satoshi Kon :)
I probably regret this post by now.

It was a great compilation of fifteen artists’ use of 60 seconds and make their own “world”. I must say, my favorite was Makoto Shinkai’s one; it was just too funny. Cats going haywire and turning into neko-zilla or something.
I think, then procrastinate.
Therefore, I am.

Arguably the best one of the bunch. Satoshi Kon can do no wrong. Whether it's a TV series, a film, or a 1-minute short, he's work always seems to have its basis in some sort of *idea*, rather than a desire to distract and dazzle, which sadly a lot of these shorts resorted to doing. This one, however, is clever and memorable; my personal favorite.

Good Morning

That was interesting. I'm getting it's a your mind and body take different times to wake up thing. Interesting.

Overall Ani*Kuri 15 gets a 7/10. My favorite ones were the Cat, the drawing of the fish, this one, Blaze man, and Onmitsu hime.

pretty standard morning representation
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy."

Not much to say about the last one, animation wasn't all the best but well all by all I quite liked these 1 minute shorts as some had some really great quality in both art and animation and well I really enjoyed these short but great 60 seconds!

Good Morning and A Gathering of Cats were my favourites. Pretty fun watch and I didn't really dislike any of them...although I thought Heat Man was pretty, meh.

A good sum of those were pretty enjoyable. Good morning is definitely my favorite, though.

Good Morning - funny and real :)

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

Gathering of cats was my favorite, the fickle nature of the cats killed me. Alien invasion and beyond the tears are my runner up.

These were well animated and executed. Big ups to the animators, your talent is appreciated.

Gathering of Cats, Good morning and Sancha Blues one were my favourites

This episode has a pretty cool concept, with the book shopkeeper seeing the worth of the customers based on how much they would pay.

I'll give this collection a 7/10. Need tk watch some more Makoto Shinkai and Satoshi Kon movies.
