Four touching and intriguing stories are set to a backdrop of different songs: a futuristic cop patrols the streets to fight against crime; a girl experiences an out-of-this-world vision of the world after ingesting a variety of pills; a badass battling chick fights her way to happiness and manages to stoke the flame of love; and two lovers meet and exchange a beautiful rose.
A girl on the subway listens to music, a boy on his skateboard zooms down the streets, and a motorcyclist picks up his date while the buildings of the city both sprout anew and collapse all around them. Fast-paced, always-moving and ever-evolving, follow a group of people in their daily lives while the cities around them develop to the point of self destruction.
Both are music videos by Studio 4C, though Nuts! is longer. But both have moments of extremly fast paced action and wonderful backdrops on which the action takes place.
Both these videos are short, but entertaining. They both tell a few small stories using differnt styles of animation. They have sci-fi, romance, and action.
Connected and Amazing Nuts! are both spectacular music videos produced by Studio 4C. If you have seen any of their work before, you should know what to expect from the visuals - blending 2D with 3D with beautiful colours and upbeat music.
Connected could well be part of Amazing Nuts!, as it has the same pumping beat as some of the other tracks and a stunning and very eye catching video. If you enjoyed one, you're sure to love the other.
In a far-off galaxy, there exists a world much the same as Earth. Save for blue skin, the people are near identical - especially with their taste for rockin' dance music. When a strange alien abduction craft lands on the planet to steal their most popular band, however, all hope seems lost. With their story told entirely via Daft Punk's album Discovery, join The Crescendolls in a journey to rediscover both themselves and their music in a galaxy millions of light years away from home.
Anime! And music! In one humungous music video!
Interstella and Amazing Nuts! Both have the feel of something new and revolutionary to the anime world, using both inspiration from the music and stunning visuals to tell a tale. The lack of dialogue is more than made up for by some awesome music. Fans of one (and Daft Punk) will definitely love the other!
Music and anime fans rejoice! These two music videos come with an anime story. Nuts! is a collection of four small music videos and Interstella is a 1h long music video presenting an entire Daft Punk album, both while telling short, dialogue-less stories to accompany the music well. If you liked the combination of a shallow, yet fun story and great music in one of these works, check out the other as well!
Naota Nanbada is a boring young boy who leads a boring life in a boring town. His older brother has left for America, and the closest he comes to any excitement is when his deadbeat dad has too much sake. But things change one day when a bizarre girl zooms up to him on a scooter and smacks him in the face with her guitar. What's more, once Naoto returns home he discovers that this strange woman has arrived ahead of him and moved in! Not only does she constantly engage in perverted activities with Naota's father and flirt with the young man himself, but she also claims to be an alien who is searching for the ‘Pirate King.' Now, Naota must learn to live with this new intruder, deal with an odd government agent who sports exceptionally large eyebrows and the mysterious Medical Mechanica, and come to terms with the fact that there are a variety of robots and weapons emerging out of his head - amongst other things. Perhaps boring wasn't so bad after all...
Both FLCL and Amazing Nuts! feature incredibly stylish animation, plenty of inspiredly crazy humour, and a popular music soundtrack. Both are also very short. Amazing Nuts! is a series of shorts, and 'Kung Fu Love' is one particularly recommended for FLCL fans - likewise, fans of that short should check out FLCL if they have not done so already.

But like most machinery, one thing is certain: malfunctions are bound to occur! Join the Doctor, his robotic assistant and mechanical creations galore as they save the world, one task at a time!
Both Amazing Nuts! and Kimagure Robot are a series of stylish shorts produced by Studio 4C. While Kimagure Robot is interconnected and is entirely about its humour, Amazing Nuts! features four seperate shorts with elements of humour and music video - but both are full of an entertaining style that makes them a joy to watch.
A lot can happen in a minute. Aliens can begin their invasion of Earth, only to be thwarted at the first step; cats can plot their revenge on their careless owners; and children can frolic in the fields with a giant robot. Ever wondered what the average day in the life of an animator is like? Or can a small pellet-spitting alien distract a young boy while he reads manga, in order to escape from his room? And will the machine that a small boy and his pet built allow him to steal a kiss from a girl? From following a group of young women recovering from heartbreak, to the owner of a music store who views his customers as little more than cash on legs, still “the clock ticks on and on in 60-second cycles.”
Ani*Kuri15 and Amazing Nuts! are both collections of very short movies (1min each with AniKuri, 3-5min music vids with Nuts). Each of these compilations let you experience a variety of art-styles and stories, some with vibrant colours, others more greyscaled, but all short enough to stay interesting. While both of these compilations have a different way of storytelling (short stories vs. music videos), because of their wackiness and variety, if you enjoyed one of these, you'll surely enjoy the other as well.
