Pretty cool I thought. Kind of reminded me of those old silent films, only with color this time around. Man, what a bummer for him to find out that he could have drank the water all along.

Hehe, nice little movie with a - typical for shorts, but nonetheless enjoyable - twist in the end.
I probably regret this post by now.

LOL that was funny I have to admit
T'was one of Tezuka's better experimental works among the other shorts.
Though could someone explain the ending? What was the punchline, or something? It wasn't the ocean but rather, a river? Uhhh..........

Ehe

Yes, he'd drifted up an estuary of a river, thus was in drinkable fresh water.

I liked the animation stile, plus Ravel's La Valse was a great music choice.

For it's time I'm sure it was legendary

I loved it, it was super funny.

I guess some are oblivious to obvious things sometimes XD.

6/10.

Not that funny considering it's a comedy. Maybe got a slight chuckle out of me at one stage, 5/10.

Not very funny, liked the gag of him hanging himself and drinking his own tears, otherwise just boring. 4/10.
