This is the sixth ending theme for the TV anime “Ahare! Meisaku-kun,” based on an original work by Takato Shinkai and featuring character designs by JUN OSON. The concept imitates the “before-and-after” effect often seen on Instagram and TikTok, where the camera lens is covered by a hand to create a transition. It proposes a scenario in which Meisaku, who is seriously cleaning, transforms into a classmate who messes around while cleaning. Illustrator docco joined as the character designer, resulting in a “reverse deformed” design with more realistic proportions.

Documentation footage of a video installation (at night) / a participatory installation for visitors (during the day). During the day, visitors are invited to tie papers bearing their wishes to the musubi-dokoro installed at the shrine, in the manner of omikuji. This process is continuously recorded in time-lapse, and at night the footage is projected onto the same location, turning daytime visitors into part of the nighttime work. The countless papers tied by participants during the day are overlaid with images of the participants themselves, creating an installation that traces the lingering memory of objects left behind in everyday life. Exhibited at Roppongi Art Night 2019 (at Roppongi Tenso Shrine)

This work is characterized by a visual expression in which music and imagery are highly integrated. Its striking sense of typography and lyric motion that is perfectly synchronized with the music create an immersive visual and auditory experience. Dynamic camera work adds depth and movement to the visuals, while meticulous compositing down to the finest details enhances the overall texture and cohesion of the piece. Through precise adjustments that required a tremendous amount of work, the level of completion was further elevated, resulting in a finish that emphasizes its unity with the music. It was crafted with this kind of integrated expression to deliver an overwhelming sense of pleasure to the viewer.
