Music + Television = This
And no, obviously I’m not referring to MTV, since we all know it stopped playing music in 1994 or so. This is a Japanese music video from Kousuke Sugimoto and Takayuki Manabe, who did the animation and music, respectively. I’m sure a few of you are immediately grimacing in disgust at the thought of an anime music video, but I assure you the only thing this has to do with anime is that it’s animated. Feel free not to watch it, but you’ll be missing out on about 4 minutes of awesomeness; the music’s not bad either, in my opinion The rest of you are watching it: holy shit, right? (Via Gorilla Mask)
