This was a masterpiece of the ages. Even though it was only a minute long you can see that Production I.G. does it again, rivaling the famed Makoto Shinkai in storytelling. I was having constipation while I was doing my business and needed some eye candy to distract myself. Needless to say I spent half an hour after my plopping was done staring at the wall feeling crushed and lost at what I should do. The breathtaking animation moved me, and you can tell that they put a full episode's worth of budget in that minute. And that's not even getting to the character development. I never thought I would see the day someone would surpass Shinkai's 6 minute shorts, but damn oh damn. This one minute had more character development regarding Inori than the whole entire series of Guilty Crown!
For the sound, I gave it a 10. The instant you hear the singer let her vocals out and wail, your heart moves with the sadness and melancholy. You can say that this is Ryo's masterpiece as he tried many times to emulate this song but could never achieve his level of greatness again.
I recommend this video to everyone, young and new, to experience what is truly a devout and ecstatic tragedy between the truly modern day telling of The Phantom of the Opera.
