the moment youtube is blocked at work, i discover that it contains ALL MANNER of beautiful mr. children / bank band videos. fail

Click to view

i love this video (harumatsuibuki) in particular. i like how the storyboarding and ideas and timing alone make it beautiful, how it doesn't need colour or l33t animating to make it better. it's very beautiful the way it

I had a moment of 0_0 when I thought the lion was about to rip apart the donkey, but turns out to be a very cool video. Thanks for posting!

Because I should be sleeping, here, have a VERY VERY ROUGH synopsis that may or may not be correct. I did it by listening once, so I'm sure it is mostly incorrect. Grammar shot to heck too. Sorry

sdfhsdfhsdh thank you!!! thanks so much for taking the time to listen and translate <333

i went through the kanji with a dictionary but my grammar is nonexistent so before your translation I didn't get the proper meaning of the sentences, just images of actions and states. and centigrade-j (who used to translate mr children's lyrics) have commented on how vague Sakurai is sometimes. no worries about ironing out the kinks! just wanted to know what the chorus was going on about, it seemed so sad, yet hopeful :)

thank you so much again!

*hearts* Welcome, dear. ^_^ I have to admit my grammar is pretty much GONE too. What grammar I have, I picked up from ... well, repeated exposure. ^_^;
