A circus-style music video themed around the desire for approval. It portrays, in a show-like format, the characters’ comical yet slightly unsettling descent as they keep chasing likes. The more they become fixated on “being seen,” the more chaotic the stage grows. While foregrounding the fun of entertainment, it presents a satirical and ironic take on the modern need for validation. Each character personifies a different form of approval-seeking, such as “domination of others” and “courtship.” Their character designs are filled with circus-inspired motifs.

A music video focused entirely on addictiveness. Designed to prioritize the audience’s visceral experience, with memorable phrases that stick in your head, a structure that gradually accelerates in tempo, and twists that make you think it’s over before it keeps going. It was created as a form of “addictive entertainment” that lingers in the brain.

This work is a music video themed around the conflict of the gap between public image and reality. Based on the common situation illustrators face—“comedic or gimmicky drawings get more attention, but I want people to see my serious work”—it visualizes both the momentum and the chaos with a social media-like tempo and an information-overloaded screen composition. This work portrays, with unfiltered intensity, the moment when the exhilaration of going viral clashes with the honest feelings behind creation.

Based on the atmosphere of classic galge/eroge, this is a wildly over-the-top 8-bit music video made with fun and momentum as the top priority. While borrowing the signature visual direction and symbolic designs of dating sims, the structure is built to keep firing off gags at a brisk pace. Rather than worrying too much about the limitations of pixel art, it fully commits to overwhelming the viewer through dense visuals and editing rhythm. In this work, the “paradise” feeling that comes with the harem setup is also treated as an important element. I poured a flood of convenient dreams and excessive happiness into the visuals. By handling the direction, pixel art creation, and editing all myself, I aimed to create a music video that puts its upbeat energy front and center.
