The artist is now one of the best-known Japanese animation artists and his works have also received high acclaim in other countries. He is consistently and energetically produces outstanding works, several of which have been entered in this year’s Japan Media Arts Festival. All of them were equally appealing and brilliant. In particular, however, this unique animation presentation examines the world of children and the inside of children’s heads with philosophical humor. One child commuting between regular school and cram school always has numbers floating inside its head. The face of a child who is a bookworm turns into a book. Another child is literally trying to kick its feeling of oppression while shouting "Waaaaaaaa!" A child is forced to smile despite feeling sad, though the unhappy face remains. One mysterious child hides various faces, and another conceals sad tears on the inside. A child tries to fit into fixed frames. Another gets lost while looking at things and listening to others. We smile at those children but realize it is a satire of all human beings. This is an excellent piece of work characterized by the sharpness of both the artist’s gaze and presentation techniques.
