This work "Kikumana" is an animation of a girl called Kikumana who acts like in a stage performance, the role defeated by such an ill circumstance though she tries to find herself. The primal aim is to get the audience feeling a strange atmosphere spread from this work. The image has a pictorial atmosphere and a documentary touch at the same time. Unrealistic phenomena take place there. (Source: AniDB)

Only six minutes. What is possible to tell during this time? For example, about infinity and depth of human knowledge, about a tide of life, about the Universe which is hidden in a book, about riddles of the past and movement in the future, about development and stagnation, fading and the birth, about loneliness among books and the real depression. What is it? Fantastic fairy tale? Madness, incarnate fear, a hallucination, surrealism, a sketch on writing-book fields, history about terrible loneliness of the child in the illusive world of adults? Or is it simply black-and-white melancholy of self-knowledge? In Kikumana everything is based on associationsand mood: everyone understands how he or she wants. And we never can not understand a true plan of the author. This movie opened slightly to us a door in any not clear, but close to us, world ... and closed. If you include music more loudly, you will feel effect"brain squeezings" more better. At some point goosebumps ran on my skin . It is undoubtedly reached by means of music which consists of classical noise and chaos of various sounds. These sounds oppress nervous system and cause unconscious negative emotional experiences. In any case, Yoshiura Yasuhiro's work associates at me with works Shinkai Makoto, though they have different approaches to studying activity. One tries to comprehend life as it is, another does an emphasis on lyrics and the love drama. After viewing this clip you set involuntarily by questions - Who I am? Who are you? Is the white mask with holes for eyes? Where I go? Why I live? What it is necessary to find to remember the essence? After all when you have no memoirs you are not person. Or person? Is ignorancel pleasure? Or knowledge is force? Also that is more terrible: remember or forget?

Rate 3/4 no vocals/art piece Story No clear path to follow. The patch jumped in and out. Since the path was not clear neither could the message be. It could be a say on imprisonment or amnesiac but i thought it was a take on development. Development the stage where we grow in our mind and on whom we are. Books are engraved as fountains of knowledge. So, it is a no wonder we turn to them in times of troubles. Alas, in terms of defining our individual paths the books can't help. For books are general. With such a wide spread of knowledge it is hard towrap things in a nice small box for everyone has different taste. Which means i can't say you are going to become a lawyer who enjoys a sand-which heavy with mayo for you might dislike mayo. But, they can be guidelines but tons of tons have to be read to full picture. Art A mess. Normally black and white films can work here it does not. I can understand the black and white concept to show confusion which does a good job at but in certain if not a good portion of the film some segments were far to bright or far too dark. Contrast was flawed. Also, some things were too blurry. The main character stood out for she lacked a vital necessity. To this moment i don't quite have a grasp on why that was. Perhaps, she did not have it to begin with as indicated by the picture shown in the film? Or perhaps it more symbolical to the fact of one's limitation on themselves? Character Nothing direct in terms of character development. It is mostly up for interpretation but it does convey solitude.
