Nobody talks about this one. A single song stretched into something that feels like opening a music box and watching the world inside settle into place. The animation doesn't chase you, it lets you breathe. Paper Balloon's melody carries the entire weight, and the visuals know their job is to get out of the way. This is what comfort actually looks like when it's made for television. Five minutes that sit with you longer than shows ten times its length.
Watashi no Kamifuusen is a 1983 music video made for a song by Paper Balloon. The single-episode piece of animation was shown on Minna no Uta, a program broadcast by NHK.
