It felt like the video was watching me instead of me watching it.
Yo.. same here, It's been in my recommendations for years yet I never even tried to stop and look at it if I should click on it or not.
Perfect description.
wow that's an accurate description of the sensation
I love the fact that their eyes are so expressive yet dead at the same time
I would say their eyes are exppressive but their faces dead?
Or is the other way around.
They are well expressed
Ikr
@@Ribula1 Well they do look dead too. And their eyes, even though lifeless, at least have some semblance of life especially the alien girl at the end.
yeah, *just like in real life* ,y’know
2:27 The way this character’s eyes move is so incredible
its more than just the eyes
A blank expression the whole time, suddenly crinkling with this gentle, warm joy. It's a masterwork.
@@emilyreames7748 I involuntarily smiled back, it was just that genuine.
Thinking face
Smiles
As it turns its head to look out, it loses its expression as if it were only for the crowd it looked to.@@emilyreames7748
It's the very primal, animal-like movement when they turn their head away. They don't direct their head movement with their eyes like a human would, but rather their head movement directs their eyes like an animal.
I genuinely thought Puparia was a movie, I didn't know it was only 3 minutes. The eyes were captivating and the detail in this shows the immense amount of work done
Yeah, I thought this was a movie trailer.
I don't know what does it all mean, but design of face white hair girl is truly awesome
Oh, hello there, wondefull person!
I didn't expected to see you here 🙃
Жуковский фрирайд!Жуковский фрирайд!Жуковский фрирайд!
спасибо тебе флекс аир 5
Wasn't that a boy tho?
@@sagharzeinoddin1899 that's even better, you know 🌚
I swear that eyes have more personality than all of me

Sus
Ight, time to yoink those eyes for my own art
Same Im a brick :')
You should probably get checked about that or something
i found myself trying to figure out the meaning of this video then i just stopped and thought- it is such a human thing to do to always try to add meaning to things. we go our entire lives searching for meaning… why can’t this video just exist and be appreciated in its beauty without it having some deep, metaphorical meaning. the first thing i noticed about this video is the amazing detail and art. observed for us to see and experience what came from another persons beautiful mind. the fact that i can be here witness something so pure and beautiful is beautiful in itself.
Смысл довольно очивиден
Reminds me of some of the conversations in Children of the Sea
I was searching for explanations of this movie other than mine interprations and i found your comment. Thank you. No i just want to enjoy what i saw and heard
Bojack horseman ??
Its like a dream. and sometimes that is good to have an experience of art that is a dream.
When I was a kid, I would consistently have dreams that featured otherworldly creatures and sceneries; visuals like this. I’ve never seen anything in real-life illustrate the kinds of things I had in my dreams before. It’s just, words don’t do it justice, you know? Art is the only way to explain certain things. And for me I understood something from this that was so deep and meaningful to me-something I’ve..seen before. It’s hard to explain but the way art can make people feel is beautiful, isn’t it?
I know you said it's hard to explain but could you try to explain what you understood
Watch more anime then there's plenty of gorgeous scenes and art like this
This is what I thought of, too! "[Some stories] give, like certain rare dreams, sensations we never had before, and enlarge our conception of the range of possible experience." ~ C. S. Lewis
i feel exactly the same. this resonates with my soul on another level. a state that cannot be explained with words
I hope you’ve heard of Ghibli films!
the eye movements of the white haired alien took my breath away
yep yep
IKR IT FEELS SO ALIVE
Right? I can't even tell what's so special about it. So much detail in so simple a movement
Same with me :)
@@laemmeelagi the special thing is that they emphasized the roundness of the eyeball and took the eyelids movements into account! :D

Hi everyone, I’m Shingo Tamagawa, the director.
I hope you enjoyed watching PUPARIA.
Thank you so much for all the feedback! I’ve read all of them and seeing how they contain so much passion made me feel really glad to have made this film.
I’m now starting on the preparation of my next film, little by little. My method requires a lot of time and effort, so I don’t think I will be able to release it easily. But I’ll definitely release it, and I’m planning to make something better than this film, so I hope you will be patient.
And lastly, I hope you will be able to find some relief in this tough situation the world is going through right now, no matter how small it may be.
皆さんはじめまして、作者です。日本語が下になってしまってすみません。あまりにも英語のコメントが多いので・・。
たくさんの感想ありがとうございます。すべて読ませていただいていますし、その熱量のある感想の数々を見て、本当にこの作品を作ってよかったと感じています。
現在私は、少しずつではありますが次の作品の準備をし始めています。
とても時間と手間がかかる作り方のため、なかなか公開できないとは思いますが、必ず発表いたしますし、これよりも良いものを作るつもりでいるので、気長に待っていただけると幸いです。
それでは、大変な世の中ではありますが、皆様に何かすこしでも救いがあることを願っております。

정말 심혈을 기울여 만드신 작품이라는 느낌이 듭니다. 몸 건강하시고 차기작도 기대해보겠습니다.
Really loved your work and we all will be waiting for your next big project!
And wishes of a cool winter
This is gorgeous! Congrats!
Keep up the good work
Take your time ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ I really love the last part with this mysterious character and how the crowd looks at him...as if he wanted to show the people something :)
(I think the Song „My Tears Are Becoming a Sea from M83“ would sooo good with the film too!)
Do not let MAPPA get their filthy paws on this animator bro 😭😭😭
After watching the behind-the-scenes video of the animation, I changed my interpretation of the animation! Haha. Tamagawa says that he wanted to express his feelings clearly in the animation, and talks about what specifically, he says that the values of humanity are being lost, and that he wanted to convey a certain comfort to the viewers in the animation, so I started watching Pulparia by different way than before, a representation of an alien invasion as I said in my last comment, in this one, I will comment scene by scene:
- The animation really seems to "talk" about the degradation of humanity and a certain fear of the future that awaits us, the first scene seems to be a girl reflecting looking at us humans from the past, and the creature behind her may indicate that it is in the future , in addition to the remains of poles and other things contrasting with the beautiful flower bed, indicate that there may have been some war or conflict.
- In the next very enigmatic scene, a man appears who appears to have a bionic eye (another indication that the animation takes place in the future), and is only in his underwear, which may or may not represent the loss of even modesty, showing that in the future that wouldn't even matter, so he looks scared and scared, as if he couldn't avoid what was coming towards him, a bizarre creature, a giant moth that you don't know if it's coming out of the cocoon or with its wings closed, and it comes very quickly, in my view, this moth, which even the name of the animation references (as Tamagawa says that Pulparia is a word similar to the word cazulo in English or the shell of the moth), represents the future and the man who is already in the The future is looking at it with fear because it is desperate when facing its own sad reality, or because it is afraid of what is yet to come, indicating that the future could be even worse than its present (which is our future), which is not It doesn't seem to be good, because the guy walks very sad and apathetic down the corridor in a hunchback posture looking down, the scenery as well as the first girl's clothes could be just another element of contrast between the time of the animation: future, and the past .
- Next we see a girl with a red dress that seems to be futuristic, and who doesn't seem at all happy to see us, because her expressions when she seems to look directly at us, viewers, seem at first to hide a grudge, an annoyance, a hurt at the same time. sees us, then she expresses anger, then her look becomes sad, as if she is lamenting something, in fact in my vision, she is looking at us who are in the "past", and for the future which is her present being so bad, she He feels a mix of emotions when he looks at us, as if he were angry with us because we are still in the past and still have a chance to change, and as if he regrets what humanity has become, then points incisively in a direction , it seems like it is showing us the way out, as if saying, get out of my way, or even pointing to a moment even further in the future, that is, the final scene.
- The final scene is very beautiful, and curious, not that the others aren't, but this one has a particular beauty. We see a girl who appears to be human, but with gray skin with different patterns in blue and red, big red eyes and white hair (in other words, she is probably an evolved human specimen), facing a horizon as enigmatic as she is, we see an immense empty space, with a colorful ground, which seems to match the initial colorful scene of the animation, that place seemed to be a beach without the sea, or even just a ground that was heavily explored and attacked, at the bottom of the horizon we see what appears to be factories releasing smoke into the air, and the sun setting, beginning the night. Then the animal that was next to the girl seems to look briefly at us and then at her as if warning that he was leaving, and for me, the animal represented comfort with the present, sleep, the deep sleep of our minds in relation to things that are happening in our time, as soon as the animal leaves, the girl seems to wake up and looks back, that's when she sees something curious, ancient humanity and that's when we see her too, so she looks with a perplexed expression and curious looking at the past, and we have varied reactions facing it, that is, our future evolution, some seem to be perplexed, curious, a woman even seems to be admiring with satisfaction, others seem to be judging, a woman seems to be very perplexed and confused in while the man next to him seems to be feeling guilt and worry about the future, and finally that boy who seems to be immersed in his thoughts, quite perplexed and reflective, then the girl from the future looks at the horizon again as if she is thinking, how can we get there? to such an extent? And this is what we have become? Then she looks at the viewer fearfully, she seems to be worried about us knowing what we would become, however, suddenly she smiles kindly and gracefully, as if saying to us: "I know you understood the message" "I trust you to create a different and better future", as if it were the altar himself telling us to pay attention to what our society is becoming, and how we are abandoning our values as human beings, family values, morals, etc. Everything behind. However, as he said in the behind-the-scenes video, he wanted to send a message, but he also wanted Pulparia to be a consolation for us, and this animation, so beautiful and rich in details that it becomes hypnotizing, with this playful and thought-provoking soundtrack, managed do that.
It showed us our future little by little, each scene seems to advance a little in the future, and they all indicate something bad, in the form of an alert and a warning, so in the end, we continue to be alerted by the empty and worrying landscape and by the girl's worried and fearful look. of the future, but at the end of it all she smiles at us from the "past" conveying the author's hope that humanity will be able to write a better future than that of Pulparia, and the beautiful yellow flowers that grow on the left of the wall (which represents the divider of past and future), amidst the many thorny plants, also highlights this.
I hope I was able to decipher at least a little of this wonderful animation, say, did I get something right or did I completely trip? @ShingoTamagawa
Thank you for the comment
To me the the red dress girl looks as if she's in a forest what looks like the connections in our brain, maybe it's as if dreaming
If she is looking at us, maybe she's pointing left(towards beginning of video) as if telling us to look back at the past, when times were "better" or to learn from the past
That's insane... Thanks you for the explanation!
did read, do care, but whats with the english? are you japanese? the language barrier makes communication artificial. to truly translate something you must adapt it to the foreign mind. and to do that you must first adapt to it yourself
nice book
Kinda disappointed that this isn't a movie trailer. Imagine having 90+ minutes of this
Dude, I would help support this. It'd probably take him fifty years... but so long as I got to watch it when I was 75, it would be totally worth it.
@@kylerosa4369 Me too. Though, it might swallow a bunch of money to pay voice actors and such.
As awesome as it would be it would probably take several life times, this piece alone probably took months if not years to get to completion. animating, especially as an independent producer, takes a very very long time. Something of this quality for 90+ minutes would be crazy even with a large team
@@Myname-il9vd It took 3 years
@@hexcodeff6624 ah so like a year per minute. My personal opinion is I actually like it more as just the 3 minutes, as much as I would love to see a feature length film that was animated like this I know it would lose its spark for me. It’s why I really like it when animation of any kind throws in little bits like this instead of keeping something like this as standard, I’d adapt and just want something of even more mind boggling quality. Instead I’ve came to enjoy the gems a creator will personally work for more than a whole studio effort. Of course there’s plenty of heart in studio productions but it has to be a different kind, and I enjoy that separate kind of animation as well. I guess when it comes down to it my whoooole perspective of art and animation changed when I learned just how much time goes into it.
This looks like a trailer for some surreal animated movie that you can only dream of
The music is like Kaneda's theme from Akira?
Reminds me a bit of Fantastic planet
Coming soon to a sleep near you.
@@CoolPixie its called "mallet quartet:1 fast" its says so in the description.
@@noemuem432 true but I just noticed that they sound similar
The 'youth' at the end seriously feels like some kind of super organism who is the culmination of billions of years of evolution of a planet; where all iterations finally resulted in a godlike being of combined physiological and mental transcendence. His expressions make it seems like a tiny lifeform patiently endured everything to eventually come out on top, and he has both a higher vision of the ultimate purpose of life yet at the same time, a young, gleeful endearment to his own impressiveness.
Really well done.
The final being in existence. Even Earth Abides couldn’t compare to that!
I'm heart broken I'm so late to finding this. Still, even finding it now has brought me so much joy. It feels like a lifetime since I have felt so absorbed by a short film. To try to turn away from watching feels akin to ripping a scholar from their studies. This is a truly beautiful short film. Thank you so much for gifting this to us. ✌️ You wonderful soul.
See here I'm more late than you, you seems early to me about 2 weeks difference
This feels like one of those things you gotta appreciate without trying to understand it.
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
I think this applies to, like, everything
Honestly, would you still call that appreciative if you don't even tried to understand in a slightest bit?
imagine a full length feature film with this art style.
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
i need that!!!!!
what a beautifull animation
Imagine a Satoshi Koi's work but with this style and there you have the full length version of this video in your imagination
watch children of the sea. best animation i've ever seen
@はあちゃまの ぼにゅう i personally enjoyed the story, made u think about life and our existence in another way
I love the being at the end with the long white hair wish there was a full movie or something about them
I will never get tired of Puparia, it really touched me with something fresh. Totally needed in the animations these days. Thank you Mr Tamagawa
Yes, this animation and art style is fantastic.
It feels like a trailer for something that will never be made because it's too good
This film took my breath away. Stuff like this really inspires me. I too am working on a short story that I would one day love to turn into a big project.
tbh, artistic stuff like these is better to be short in my opinion. thats how the magic works at my brain, giving these all majestic in just short period of time, really make it more, you know, magical, rather than stretch it into a longer medium.
Yup.
@@JoeR-op2qf so this is a trailer for a movie?
@@jaeger5yearsago646 no this was the film. only one person worked on this and it took them about 3 years to make. that’s why it’s 3 mins
If I were a multi millionaire, I’d fund this guy to turn this into a full on anime or movie
Nah i think its perfect the way it is. I like that its so mysterious
S
it would take him like 10 lifetimes
Too much of one thing is sometimes never a good thing, this is great, its already showing alot you just have to put it together hence the heavy focus on the eyes (perception)
I'd like a more longer version (with more context) in this video, I'm trying to put the puzzles together
なんだかディストピアとユートピアが混ざったような、境界線が曖昧で、美しさと恐怖が同時に存在してるような、、すごく心に感じるものがありました。
インタビュー動画も拝見して、共感する部分が多かったです。
ストーリーが面白いとか作画がすごい映像作品ももちろん素晴らしいけど、作ることそのものから作者の内面を感じることができる作品は多くないと思います。このPUPARIAは正直偶然CZcamsに出てきて知りましたが、運命のようにも感じました。たった数分の映像でも、何時間もその世界にいたような、超大作の映画を大スクリーンで見たような没入感とこの画面の奥に広がる世界に触れられた気がします。ありがとうございます。
Спасибо огромное автору за проделанную работу! Если я правильно поняла произведение,то куколка, а затем и взрослая особь это будущее, перемены. Люди чувствует приближение этих перемен,чувствуют, что мир изменился, и они боятся этих перемен и неизвестности. Лис, будто наше прошлое или настоящее,наш привычный мир, прощается и уходит, передавая эстафету новому времени. Люди испугано и с ожиданием смотрят и ждут, что же будет дальше, а будущее лишь улыбается, говоря, что не надо бояться. На душе как-то потеплело, от осознания, что не только меня пугает будущее и что все мы едины в этой беде. Правильно, не надо бояться будущего
Love this.
This feels like I’m an animal observing the human race
humans aren't a race
@@NJP-Supremacist "The human race" is a common phrase used to describe all of humanity. While there is no strict categorization to the word "race" as there is to the word "species", referring to ourselves as a singular human race isn't wrong, but I'm guessing you're just saying this to be contrarian and edgy.
@@IcespherePlaysGames it's common because a lot of people are gullible and don't realize how stupid it sounds
referring to ourselves as all one human race is actually wrong at its face, Europeans are not and never will be "the same" as aboriginals, asians, or africans
I'm saying this to be contrarian to people who're wrong like you, and there's a lot of wrong people by the looks of those likes you got LOL
@@NJP-Supremacist "Europeans are not and never will be the same as aboriginals, asians, or africans." Of course, you just had to go there. First thing's first, race is basically dependant on physical appearance (skin color, hair, etc). What the original commenter meant by the human race are ALL humans. You're basically just pointing out what is obvious; the difference in physical characteristics between different races. Just because humans have different 'races' doesn't mean they're not a part of the 'human race'. That's like calling a white tiger a subspecies of tiger.
@@chucklenuts2294 "you just had to go there"
Where? the place that proves me right?
race is much more than skin color and hair type, it includes skeletal structure, gut bacteria species, and has residual effects on fundamental social functions
I know the original commenter meant all humans, but all humans are a species, not a race, there's a huge distinction
using the word "race" with "human" is nonsensical because humans aren't "a race", it's as simple as that
A white tiger is a subspecies, or race, of tiger though, as distinct from bengal tigers, etc. The same applies to asian and african elephants
The white hair person... their smile was so warm, my heart skipped a beat.
i fell
It somehow looked more like a smirk to me. Sort of like whe was the vehicle for change that you can do nothing about. It might be a change for better or worse, but she only has the power to make it happen.
czcams.com/video/QHCLOve6YnA/video.html😳
i hate kaori pfps 😫
reminds me of Griffith tbh
I’m speechless at how entrancing this short is. Beautiful.
Based on the interview, it now seems to me, that the "Puparia" is an depiction of the artist’s creativity path. Creatures and locations is his hobby and live. Drawing, as a calm and beloved place, that brings him joy and fun (first woman scene) became hostile and disturbing, (scene with man and rooms) because he start worked in anime industry.
In some moment he leave his busyness and stopped drawing at all. (women in red dress without any creature) And finally he returned back reborned with "Puparia". People on last scene are us.
truly a piece of artwork. like flexair.
This whole thing feels like snippets from some epic story we've only seen a tiny part of. The design and animation is gorgeous.
I dont want to be the 1001st like but the first comment
we wont see more like this anymore, but we see more hero acadamia or whatever is popular to masses instead
And that score! I would love to see this stretched out into a full length anime film.
@@ozozzooo001 there’s always been the thing that’s popular and the thing thats good.
Reminds me alot of my dreams to be honest
This is what you would get if Studio Ghibli, Junji Ito, and Satoshi Kon had worked on something together.
Omfg you're right-
Satoshi Kon yes, SG a lil bit. I can't see Ito's iconic art style translated here sorry.
@@corndog7813 I'd say the eeriness and intricate lines screams Ito, as well as the shape of the eyes + saturated red/blue/orange colour palette! SG in the movements, and satoshi's overall style. It's so gorgeous

every frame is a wallpaper
The main message of the animation, connecting all the parts, seems to be that an alien race invaded and dominated planet Earth to harvest resources or live here, we can't know for sure, but they seem to be destroying and leaving the planet deserted, and this alien girl from White hair seems to be different, kind, and curious about human beings and wants to understand more about us. So maybe the reaction of that girl alone in what appeared to be a horseradish forest, of surprise, anger and then fear and coercion when answering what seemed to be a question to someone, was why she was answering this alien girl, the direction where what was left of humanity was, and she seems to have responded to that against her will out of pure fear.
So finally the alien girl finds what's left of humanity after the wall, and her reaction when she sees us is the same as ours when we see her, scared, surprised and curious. But her smile at the spectator, a human, and her worried and fearful expression when looking again at the horizon, seems to show that she is different from the others, and that she is worried about what is happening on Earth and what they are doing to us.
Of course I could simply be traveling and this animation could simply be something beautiful and abstract for us to enjoy, but I still think it has a context and a message behind it haha. Tell me if I'm right? @shingotamagawa
Two enigmatic scenes that are more difficult to fit, is the scene of the human girl sitting in everyday clothes with what appears to be an alien creature behind her, and the two seem to be very relaxed, which could be an indication of the main message of the animation soon. In the beginning, it is possible to form friendships with different beings and people, in this case the aliens who could be some kind of Pet who escaped from the colonizing Aliens, and ended up making friends with that human girl.
The most difficult scene to interpret and fit into this narrative is the scene of the guy who appears to be in the hotel, relaxing in samba-cançao, and when he was about to enter what appeared to be his room, he comes across a being who appears to be be a moth or a giant moth, coming towards him quickly through the strange corridor of doors, while he looks at her with a worried and curious look, as if he knew there was no way to escape what was to come. Perhaps the giant moth is one of the invading Aliens that was approaching that man to do him some harm, he also seemed to have undergone medical experiments, one of his eyes had a strange red pattern and the fact that he was wearing underwear could To be another evidence of this, perhaps he had just left the operating table or was entering the room where it was going to happen, the fact is that he seemed very worried and not at all happy with the rapid and threatening approach of that giant insect whose gaze was cold. There is also the fact that the place he was in was very strange with that bizarre corridor of doors, despite resembling a hotel from our world, very beautiful indeed, that corridor of doors tells me that that place is not a common place, I actually believe it to be a laboratory, which they made look like a human place so as not to cause so much panic in the guinea pigs.
In other words, the two scenes may seem disconnected but they end up fitting into my interpretation in the end haha, showing more details of human life amid this alien invasion.
This whole thing gives me the chills I felt when I watched Princess Mononoke as a kid and saw the forest spirit turning to look at him for the first time
YES!!!!! *YES!!!!!!!!!!* YOU PUT IT INTO _WORDS,_ THE WAY I COULD EVER ONLY DREAM!!!!!!!!!!
Yes. This, officer. They're the psyker who managed to put my thoughts and emotions into words when I could not. Give them a medal.

I love the artstyle!! Haven't seen experimental charadesign since the anime Gankutsuou which I definitely recommend watching it's a masterpiece an underrated and hidden gem that deserves more love and appreciation, I definitely recommend watching it it's so good probably the best adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo

Thank you so much for this Shingo 🙏🏻❤️
I like how the crowd of people observing the alien at the end watch her like insects. They stay still and blink quickly like bugs. In contrast the alien is constantly moving and smiles in a warm, more human, way.
So true
Dude same! I think that was very intentional by the artist.
In his interview he talks about how he feels as though in modern day society people lose their individualism and it becomes harder to just be yourself and focus on your own work. He shows this in this MASTERPIEECE by giving the large crowd similar skin tones and the same blank expressions, all of them look different but feel the same. Yet they all look to the 'alien' who stands out in its outfit, hairstyle and skin tone, the irony being that the alien is more human than the humans because he is being itself, unencumbered by societal influences.

I wish more anime had this gorgeous style. Their faces have volume, their expressions are vivid and subtle. Everything about this is beautiful.
I agree!
It almost looks real! but just...NOT
if that makes sense?
Have you watched "Mononoke"? It's got somewhat of a similar vibe, but it's also very dark and gruesome.
It's unfortunately about appealing to the masses, not making something truly beautiful like this.
Not only is it not appealing for the masses, the amount of effort into drawing / animating these is immense and cannot be so easily done
@@Danalpark Effort and time is certainly put into them but mainstream anime is nothing to write home about, boring concepts with boring characters and designs made to look as average and inoffensive as possible.
that damn smile really got me acting unwise
I didn't even know this existed until I saw a single blurry frame on some random profile on a forum. I was so curious and mesmerised despite the low quality that I took a screenshot and used image search and was pleasantly surprised when I got the name of this video.
I am so glad I did because I have never seen something so absolutely beautiful. It saddens me that I will never achieve this level of skill in anything I do. But I think this is the final straw that has inspired me to stop what I'm currently studying at University and take up art and animation.
Thank you Shingo for sharing this with the world.❤😊❤️
I am just so happy to be able to witness art like this, it literally makes me happy to be alive.
If there is ever going to be a faithful Berserk adaptation, this guy should be the one to direct the animation
Fuck yeah he can basically already draw griffith

I imagine what will captivate people most about this short is the amazingly intricate backgrounds or the incredibly detailed supernatural creatures and people, but what really astounded me was the sneakers the girl in the beginning is wearing. They're the most realistically animated and drawn shoes I've ever seen in a work of animation. Stunned me with how evocatively realized they were.
I love how your comment perfectly describe this masterpiece.
Their eyes remind me of the fake eyes that butterflies often have on their wings! So pretty!
This is why we need to give artists more creative freedoms in media. I feel like everything is such a cash grab now. This was amazing.
this was made by one dude and I believe he did it jus cuz he wanted to, your point still stands tho

Everything is actually trash now. People work for money, nower films care nothing inside and no-one thinks about improvement. I’m just studying in university, getting some skills. Hope everyone could see my future projects. My name is Yevgeniy Guryev. Photographer, musician, animator, gym rat, and hopefully future actor and director. Watching everything and anything. I have watched 2000 of very different anime and always put analysis, how to make it better. I also watch every film and take something from it. Always try to improve my tastes. No one knows me. For others I’m just a nutriologist with good taste, I’m just secretly improving everything I could and don’t like. To create films or anime you need to know the life better than others near you. You need to think like other people, talk to many people, try to get into their place. You should look at everything you see and understand the sense of it with its past or even future. Look through the objects. I’m 17.
i have absolutely no goddamn clue what’s going on, but this looks so stunning
Left to viewer's interpretion but holy mother of ghibli studio this is so beautiful to the point it feels like an entire studio was behind it for months,polishing it day and night.

fast forward 3 years and still dream of someone making this into full length movie. This could be the next Angels Egg.
the last girl,s eyes and her smile at the end was so heartmelting ☺️
Get this man in the anime or movie industry right now. What a talent.

@@ut3115 what
this is his project after a long break from the anime industry. and no in now way was he involved with children of the sea though aesthetic-wise they are pretty similar
This feels like the opening cinematic for some obscure JRPG that would have videos essays made about it 15 years later explaining why it's an underrated masterpiece.
Realest thing I've ever read
XDDD true
what are you referencing. i would like to know
@@TimLimDimSims Nothing specific, just the obscure game scene in general.
Black souls 2 , 10 hour video :D
there's just this odd yet calming, otherworldly feel to this animation. the graphics, characters are absolutely gorgeous. can't say there's a strict storyline. but the plot somehow hangs in there via the eerie character expressions, somehow hopeful.
Why does this style make me feel so nostalgic. I love this so much because it fills me with the wonder anime did when I was a kid. Like Akira and Sprigan. 👍
Everybody talking about the smile.
Im just here thinking the bug thing sliding through doors is the most horrifying thing I've seen in a long while and I love it.
Gorgeous masterpiece
I love the artstyle!! Haven't seen experimental charadesign since the anime Gankutsuou which I definitely recommend watching it's a masterpiece an underrated and hidden gem that deserves more love and appreciation, I definitely recommend watching it it's so good probably the best adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo
The way it slides reminds of felix colgrave for some reason
It seems to me to be some sort of owl
The panic when I saw it was immense, but I can't stop watching just that bit on repeat for the adrenaline lol
I think it’s going through endless reflections
I cannot believe how beautiful and artistic this is. The music, the animation, the emotion? I can’t wait to see more work from you. This is beyond words fantastic.

-Animation REVIEW
I'm on it
Moths, transformation, rebirth. And those crowds of people are us and we messed up. The girl spirit realized we messed up and smiles before looking at whats to come.
Haha
the contrast between realism and surrealism, stillness and motion.
i thought you typed "silliness" instead of "stillness" xd
I reminds me Kon movie atmosphere. Great work
I'm probably completely off base with this set of ideas, and I haven't read anything about this work at all. It just showed up in my recommends while looking for information about Chainsaw Man characters. It looks like the female character portrayed prominently in each scene, albeit in different forms, is some kind of dream shepherd. She guides all the sleeping souls of the world into their prospective dreams, and in the case of the man in the endless room, to their possibly deserved nightmare. That intrepid soul whom the girl looks at directly in each scene is a lucky one who gets to see the process from a spectator's position as opposed to being directly part of the dream in the scene; this is interesting to the girl, who finally smiles at them in the end.
The first few thoughts I had about this brought me to the memories of feeling like I sometimes intrude upon the dreams of other people. During those times, everything is so unusual, so foreign, and so utterly unknown to me that all I can feel is that this (these) dream(s) are not my own. Nothing makes sense, like I'm not properly compiling my own thoughts, and those nights leave me feeling like I hadn't really gotten any rest from the sleep. It is said that each day you wake from your dreams is like being reborn into existence, and your first few thoughts are lofty and nostalgic; then reality fully awakens you into its heavy, harsh realm. Just some thoughts, I am not crazy.
I have no idea what I just watched, but I loved each and every frame. Your style is so stunning and brimming with creativity. I wish you nothing but success in your future. I could’ve watched for hours.
Not only is this some of the best animation I've ever seen, but that character design is also seriously the pinnacle.
okay, this is good and deserves all the praise in it's own regard, but there's no way this is the best animation you've ever seen. The focus wasn't even on the animation. What made it good was the artwork and creative direction. There was very little in terms of sakuga or even much "animation" at all. It's more stills in motion than animation.
@@plsdontbanmeagainyoulibtards k
Cap
You don't understand anything about animation
@@plsdontbanmeagainyoulibtards But animation is moving pictures? I'm not sure what you're trying to say because this is definitely not stills moving. Even if it were stills moving that would also be regarded as animation. Stills moving is literally the entire process of animation.
The animation was null almost. Incredible artwork tho.
I wish this artist had a Patreon 'cos I feel the need to throw large amounts of money at him. Purely magical.

it feels wrong to watch this for free

Wait how do you know that?
@@mannyoftheeast3318 they said it in a short documentary.
Yah I was gonna say, this must have taken so long
Their eyes are human , but the way how they look at each other more fits for insects. Im scared now
Maybe is that the meaning of this film? What do you think?
@@blinkerito1829 It can be. The scene with a man and a butterfly( or mantis, or other insect) approaching him possibly hints at this
dam u right they do kinda move like insects
its junji ito all the way around
jk xd
This is so beautiful, the details and colors, woow! Love the esthetics of the characters. Just amazing. I'm so grateful for such a gift you've given us! Thank you, Shingo 🙏🏼
I cried at the end. I was overtaken by some kind of relief and calmness. Thanks to the wonderful author for the work🙏🙏
The characters are so hypnotic, I feel like I already know them without even having a word given. What I wouldn’t give to watch this as an anime
Imma gonna cry>< thank you for the heart please take mine❤️
I would pay. SO. MUCH. MONEY.
What i would GIVE for this to be an anime, or a movie, what i would GIVE
Why do I feel a strong sense of existential fear when watching this? Like the fact that this brings out so much feelings shows it's good art but like I also feel like I'm having a bad trip in a haunted house.
The final segment of the short kinda evocates the sensation of the pupa breaking apart and the fully matured being coming out, in a way, the pupa being the status quo of the people existing in the world. Or the world itself.
It does give me that feeling as well.
The feeling of abrupt and traumatic change.
lol what? fear? I feel fascinated and in awe
@@necromax13 That seems to be a good way to interpret this. Finally, humanity moving forward to new horizons in a new form that is confidently looking back on what has been left behind and inviting us to follow the path to a new humanity.

Finally an honest review.
Most people say its beautiful and that they vould feel dozens of emotions and that they are amazed beyond words, when in reality this is what actually happened.
@@auri1075 You can still feel things without understanding it.
Someone on tiktok said, that he/she don't dare to watch this video.. I thought it'll be scary but... Nah.. it's beautiful. But I don't understand the meaning of this video 😌 or maybe the meaning is that we could feel anything from the gaze of the eyes 👀
same here. but still, it really is beautiful.
I'm gonna write something here and wait for an enlightened soul to come up with an explanation for this video
I have many questions. This short film gets the gears turning.
Анимация без компьютерной графики и нарисованная цветными карандашами 😮. Это титанический труд!!! Я не фанат манги из-за зачастую плоского смысла и детских диалогов. Но здесь за не полные три минуты я увидела глубокий смысл. Смысл о том что всё меняется, что не надо бояться, отпустить прошлое и идти вперёд и радоваться новому. А о «визуальном оргазме» я вообще молчу. С уважением 😊.
It’s like Satoshi Kon meets Junji Ito.
With a little Yoshitaka Amano thrown in for good measure.
I also think a bit of the ghibli Animation style sprinkled in there, the way the faces and expressions move
I see a lot of Naoki Urasawa here, honestly.
Really!!
I thought this was a junji its movie
If this took 3 years and the length of the video is 3 minutes, a minute of the video is equivalent to a year of work. That means that a second of the video equates to a sixtieth of a year's worth of work, so roughly 6.1 days.
This means that if you blink once(which the average human blink is roughly a third of a second), you'll miss 2.3 DAYS worth of work.
Let that sink in...
Edit: slight mistake in calculation, thanks Albert Pemberton for correcting me
Ho...Lee...damn
*6.1 days. Therefore 2.03 days of work per blink.
@@bertiepemberton7782 i dont quite understand your logic, can you elaborate a bit on where i made a mistake?
@@bertiepemberton7782 oh ok now i see
Therefore, I must not blink to truly appreciate this art.
I absolutely love this art style. Im so glad there are people in this world keeping up with the traditional hand drawn art. It’s incredible. It’s something’s computer animation cannot do. Thank you for making it Shingo Tamagawa.
I can't believe that i found this at literally the perfect time in my life for this to help me with my situation because it might seem odd but I relate to this movie in this moment of my journey
When people ask me "How good do you want your art to be?" I'm just gonna show them this.
2:19 i can’t stop rewatching this part; the movement of their pupils, the smile at the end,, im so transfixed- this film is amazing
Me too 😭😭
Also the pupils move in sync with the beat, gorgeous
its literally so satisfying!
sameeeee i love that part too! everytime the person moves their eyes, im like 👁️👄👁️
Same. They are stunning.
Просто прекрасная анимация. Тут множество смыслов, и каждый видит это аниме по разному. У каждого свои итоги, всё зависит от того, как человек смотрит на мир.
Ваш метод работы над аниме очень кропотлив и прекрасен. Смотря всё это, я не мог поверить, что это всё нарисованно от руки. Это очень и очень крутое Аниме, мне очень не терпится увидеть больше ваших работ, учитывая что вы уведомили нас о новой работе. Буду очень сильно ждать её❤
Увидев эту улыбку, я почувствовал много тёплых эмоций. Это был кропотливый труд, и вышел он на славу. Спасибо, что опубликовали это. Автору удачи в следующей работе, и надеюсь, что всё получится, как и задумано.
Pretty cool! That last expression the last character makes was quite iconic. I've never seen such an expression captured so well in animation.
Igual, vuelvo a ver el vídeo de vuelta tan solo para ver esa expresión, esa sonrisa junto a esa mirada.
Griffith, also probably like lilo from lilo and stich idk
Watch more anime bro ur just talking
@@ylobenz homie said watch more anime 💀
The textures are so gorgeous, and they add so much. It’s all digital coloring in animation and comics these days and it’s so flat, but then you see something like this where every frame is a painting and remember how beautiful traditional animation can look. I’ve got a feeling this is going to inspire a lot of artists to similar undertakings.
I'm not sure but I think this was done digitally. It is still possible to get an "organic feel" to the animation with digital media :)
@@hanastasiah2329 it’s not. I found a mini doc on it after this. All the animation and coloring was done by hand, all pencils and paint. It took him 3 years. There is certainly beautiful work being done digitally, but I’m not sure I’ve seen anything as nice to look at as this..
Most Japanese anime still have painted backgrounds, even when characters are 3DCG. Besides, digital paintings can have as much soul as traditional ones when done right
You're not looking at the right place if you don't think digital artwork can be this good.
It is VERY inspiring, but keep in mind it took him years to complete this short movie.
Sometimes a good art, like this movie, can be a motivation in itself, not necessarily a push to do something specific but to just create more. :)
Other people: "Everyone who sees this video understands a different meaning."
Me: "But why is there an avatar being watched by a bunch of zombies?"
Some of the best animation I’ve ever ever seen… art style too. Gosh I wish they would make a feature film. Escaflowne vibes, angels egg, just insane..
I feel like this movie shows different stages and relationships that we can have with art. The art is here symbolised by the surrealistic environments and creatures appearing throughout the film. The characters that we see represent the artists.
The girl in the beginning sits in a garden and suddenly finds herself amidst this world of creativity, but chooses to leave it behind as she walks away. Just like our minds sometimes wander off into entirely new spaces when we are amidst nature. However, just like the girl we often quickly return to daily routines, leaving behind our fantastical world. This scene represents unexplored potential.
The next scene to me illustrates the obsessive relationship that we can sometimes have with art and creativity. The guy is about to go to bed but is suddenly hit with an idea, manifested in the quickly approaching creature. He desires to go back to normal routine but his art keeps him enslaved. He is torn between the two worlds, symbolised by his different coloured eyes. This scene represents the possessiveness of art.
The next scene shows a girl living inside her world of imagination. She has been completely consumed by her world and appears to be detached from the normal and tangible. Contrary to the guy before she is not trapped but has given in and therefore free. Her gesture could translate into “get lost”. Leave me alone inside my world. This scene represents the state of isolating yourself with your art.
The last scene shows the ultimate state of art. It shows a person that has become art itself. The person embraces art, but is neither possessed by it or isolating herself in it. She lives and breathes art and shares her passion with the world. The world watches in amaze as the art propagates into and transforms the real world. To touch the hearts and souls of other people and inspire the world to change, that is the true power of art.
What a beautiful and thought provoking animation.
This is a great analysis
best analysis so far that I've seen about puparia
Such a wonderful analysis. This should be the top comment.
This is great! I think you should check out “the making of puparia” since your analysis really seems like it peered in the creator’s mind :)
it is definetly about creativity but not sure if it is about art.
