Fantasy Story is a short musical piece pertaining to a young girl who appears to live in a dream world all her own. She is not a particularly deep character, heck she never even speaks. Instead its up to the audience to actually feel what she is feeling, by way of her emotions and expressions. She appears to be a quite mellow individual, that gets easily entertained by the things around her. The video is cut into 5 different mini story arks, and in each one she is expressing a certain astonishment and interest in something. Whether it be a book, a leaf in the breeze, or just watching the rain fall on a calm day.
The art certainly doesn't look like a tried and true anime, but more along the lines of a painting you might see hanging in your local art museum. Not very colorful or detailed in any regards, but still oddly alluring at the same time.
The thing that stood out the most for me in this video was the music, its all done with a piano in a classical sort of fashion, but with different tones and feeling to each segment. I felt sympathy, joy and peace--all in a matter of a few seconds between each skit. It brings the sort of emotion that you would see either in a "drama act," or perhaps a "ballet." The one thing that I didn't like about it, was the fact that they spent a bit too much time breaking off into each story ark, I really don't understand why they couldn't have just blended them all together in one long session.
Either way though it is a very soothing piece of work, its the kind of music video that is great for when you need to unwind. I am not the biggest fan of these types of videos, but I honestly felt it was a great way to spend 3 plus minutes.
