add recShe and Her Cat and Egao are two short works from the master himself, Makoto Shinkai. Though SaHC has dialogue, Egao is simply a music video; both show us a touching relationship between a human and her pet.
Both vidoes are really short and touching. They show the possitive sites of the world and make you feel like after katharsis in ancient greek theatre.
Another fine piece of Makoto Shinkai's art, I'm pretty confident you will like this short movie if you were even remotely touched by any of his other works.
Just so that we can remember that you don't need a big budget to make a big hit!
Simple pleasures in life are both told in a wonderful way in both of these extremely short shorts. Touching stories about the love between a person and their pet and how this influences their life in a small, and yet meaningful way.
If you enjoy one, you're sure to appreciate the other.
The love and caring between a pet and its owner is the main theme in both Egao and She and her cat. Both short animations are simple, but emotional, and the key element is the feeling. They are very cute and sweet, and perfect for animal-lovers.
Both Egao and She and Her Cat are visually appealing short stories by Makoto Shinkai. They are both emotionally moving, but in a very lighthearted way. If you liked the one, don't hesitate to watch the other, since neither goes over 5 minutes in length.
Egao and She and Her Cat are similar in the way that both tell a short memoir of two friends, one being a girl and the other her pet. They tell of how their friendship thrived and the hardships that were overcome by them.
