Many times I wonder what would be of Japan's art if drugs were easy to come by and its use/possession wasn't so harshly punished.
This could be thought more as a music video. Great acid ambient techno accompanying nicely drawn and animated surreal imagery. I can already picture this being used as visuals for some rave music set.
The first thing that strikes the viewer when the short begins is the simple charcoal on paper approach, which I feel adds a warm touch and feels closer to the viewer.
I feel like people over here are being quite close minded to these kinda experimental things. Why bother... watching and giving such ratings to things that clearly don't fit your tastes?

I'm not entirely sure why the superimposition of traditional anime is made on literal experimental shorts. It is logic like that which really intrigues me since what we are looking at here is no ordinary anime, more so the origin of the word anime (if you feel the need to stay traditional).
This is raw Japanese animation, which is somehow very different to anime but that is a topic for another time. This wacky short, intentionally made in an obscure fashion. The messages it draws? I've yet to know. But one thing is certain, the unorthodox behaviour is simply nothing to brush over. Take this as... an expression, some psychedelic expression with a means to show the viewer a new concept and idea in a daring and frenzied pattern. It is simply wild. Maybe it is a meta-reference? Maybe this was just rando drawings you'd expect to see in the first stage of development in a project, and Tanaami just thought to make a movie out of it. Who knows.
But it is decent stuff tho. So 6/10.

Story/art
-There is none. The main concept of this artwork going by the title as evidence is work pieces that were junk scraps. Rather than tossing them out the artist compiled all of them and put in a movie. Normally, i would applaud that idea if was properly presented. However, none of these look remotely close to each other.
-There is pointless doubling of certain scenes.
- why the decision to input a scene with a blend of realism(finger moment)?
...
-black and white while was tame at best. Was a good call for it there was color used i don't think it would improve this at all.
Sound
While the sound choice was loop based i think other sound choices would be better. I am all for abstract art. After all i find that is what makes up the art that is dementia. However, how am i supposed to be a relaxed viewer if a good portion if not all is music scraps as well? By music scraps i am referring to poor tempo pieces. Such as the sound of a record skipping. While that sound can be looped i don't think most people like sounds that hurt their ears. Which is why i feel a decision of classical music would be a better call.
