When I first heard this song, which begins with the sound of waves, I felt a strange sensation of wavering between fantasy and reality. Based on that feeling, I developed the imagery with the concept of “rest in a world of illusion,” using a dance with a futon as the motif. In the hope of expressing the warmth of the song, I hand-drew all of the effect-like elements that would normally be done in CG. I hope it can serve, even just a little, as a place where viewers can take a breath and rest their wings.
