A single song stretched into a moment where you stop moving. Live-action seasons blur into watercolor animation, and a child's voice carries you through spring into summer like it's the most natural thing in the world. Kouji Nanke doesn't animate a music video here, he animates what it feels like to live inside a song, where time moves at the pace of breathing.
Haru Natsu is a music video made for the song of the same name by Ayumi Shigemori, which aired on NHK's Minna no Uta program. The single-episode piece mixes live-action scenery with animated sequences, and the animation is credited to Kouji Nanke.
