Student animation from the Inter-College Animation Festival's 2001 to 2006 editions arrives as a curated showcase of the event's best entries. Spread across sixteen OVA episodes, the collection gathers work by animation students in Japan, and for many of them the festival is a potential doorway into a professional animation career. The works draw on a range of techniques, from stop-motion to CGI, and the collection carries fantasy and mystery genre labels. The diversity in visual approach becomes part of the appeal. Figures such as Taku Furukawa, Katayama Masahiro and Kihune Tokumitsu appear among the festival's judges. Watching offers a glimpse of what Japan's next generation of animators was already making.
