You're going to watch twelve one-minute episodes and somehow each one will stick with you longer than anime three times its length. SCANDAL builds more genuine character in 60 seconds than most shows do in entire arcs, finding everything that matters in small moments between the noise. The real band's actual energy bleeds through every frame, turning what could have been corporate fan service into something quietly intimate and impossible to rush through.

SCANDAL ANIME is a set of twelve fictional shorts, each about a minute long, built around the real-life Japanese band SCANDAL. Released online in 2009, the episodes place the group in brief invented scenarios rather than documenting their actual career. The shorts fall under music and slice of life, offering small glimpses of the band in an animated form.
