From the godlike team up of Rie Matsumoto and Yuki Hayashi, a divine duo that's proven themselves together twice over with Kyousougiga and Baby, I Love You Daze, loads of incredibly animation talent from studio Bones and other connections, and a bumping song by BUMP of Chicken, this music video was born.
All it needed was three minutes. Three minutes of time to completely embody the appeal, history, and wonder that is the nearly 25 year old franchise known as Pokémon. Every bit of love I've ever had for every facet of this franchise and every bit of love the team creating this music video had for this franchise, bursts into a beautiful celebration of the series, one that has made me feel more passionate than I've felt about anything for a long time.
That passion I'm feeling right now, to me, thats the real power of anime.
