This is the first installment in the short anime series “What Kind of Home?” featured on TV Tokyo’s “Shinapushu.” Inspired by the Japanese concept of “yaoyorozu no kami” — the idea that countless deities dwell in all things — this work was created around the theme of turning our attention to the small lives and subtle presences that reside in nature. With the hope that children can freely expand their imagination in nature, we aimed for a simple, gentle style of expression by stripping away as many elements as possible. In addition, we focused on a minimal character design with infants’ visual perception in mind, along with movements that feel lovable and endearing.
