Ok, now this is a very strange video. The Beginning up to 0:42 is pretty bad actually since I don't like such static masks if they're used to long. The Middlepart is simply the most astounding work with Mushishi I've seen so far. The video is vivid and dynamic and the sceneselection is effective and distinct. And it was very intriguing and even more when the pace of the song increased even though the static masks and grain reentered the stage at that point but the editing makes up for it mainly the cuts actually. Starting with 5:04 the video start to fall apart for me. The Keyings and mask don't work for me because you can see that you didn't really put your heart into it, and I don't like halfassed stuff (which also applies to most other effects in this video). I can see that it might get boring without them, but otherwise they're more distracting than adding atmosphere. Either way, it is interesting to watch. And it's amazing that you actually don't even notice that it's that long. 4/5
