Very nice quality and flow. I expected it to have more effects (japanese school prejudice) and was nicely surprised by the simplicity, which worked very well.
As for the tracks:
Intro and outro were kickass. Nice, clean.
The first track had some interesting ideas and was, if I noticed right, the most effects heavy. Still not much disturbing and it was clear what's going on, unlike in some of the Karas vids. Solid work.
The second track had the advantage in being simmilar to someKaras art so it flowed into it really well. Nice idea and uniting theme. Fairly simmilar to the first track, solid editing again.
The third track was, imo, the weakest one. While this OVA has some nice footage to work with, the overlaying really didn't work and it was confusing most of the time. Sync'd well, but the fact it was so confusing was really weird.
Track four kicked ass. Probably the best of them, having stuff like strong themes (the piano, YES!), good editing, ideas, everything. This is how I imagine a good track.
Track five. I read the anime in the MEP before I watched it, but forgot them almost instantly. And when I got to this I was like "5cm... in action MEP??? MASAKA!!!"
And you know what? It worked! Myprops to Niwatori, since making it work is really good. It didn't work "as much" as tracks, say, 1, 2, 4... but it still worked A LOT which is the best thank you I can say about it. My second favourite track of the MEP (but everyone knows I love Shinkai's work, so... heheheh...)
Track six was good. Too short to be seriously rated, in fact, but not bad.
Overally I really enjoyed this and I hope to see something simmilar in the future.
Thank you and 5/5 :>
