| Well, I think I did but I will add it here...I have so many but my favorite was, "Le Maison en Petit Cubes." I may have to spam this place and add a few more later. ^^) |
| I agree :) Le Maison en Petits Cubes . [but i think that majority have already seen this movie, so it would be quite useless to add it to main page as the video of week.] and toki wo kikeru shojo. i really loved this movie. for optimism, for naturalness .. for this good feeling after watching. :) |
~mooo! be aware.. Headcrab will definitely eat you too! |
| I love so many of them, but I think my favorites would be "Le Maison en Petits Cubes", "Shizuku", "Restaurant of Many Orders", and "Diary of Tortov Roddle." |
 |
| I love Diary of Tortov Roddle. and Man & Whale ^_^ |
    |
| I love: Comedy She and her cat Tooi Sekai Man & Whale Le Maison en Petits Cubes Egao [is a music video, does it count?] |
 |
| Yep music videos most certainly do count - I have not seen Tooi Sekai but heard good things about it. |

| She and Her Cat. Lovely little short. |
| There she is!! Awesome, best short I have seen. Cute romance even though not a word is spoken and 100x better than 99% of romance anime goes. Everyone should see it! |

| ~HIGEPIYO~ Just read my comment and you'll know why...but then again... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-x57MUD3Yk&feature=related Gomen! I looked for either the Japanese or English subbed OP, can't find it, but I know if you guys take a look see, if you not yet have, you'll have loads of fun...tootles! |
| On Your Mark is one of my faves. It's a short by Ghibli, and awful pretty.... |
Well one thing I've learned from this experience, is that a princess is still a princesss even when she is naked. |
| I have to throw some love in here for Twin Mix: White Reflection, oh and Universe is pretty cool too :) |
I won't be fooled by a mere 3-d girl!!! |

| I like/love La Maison en Petite Cubes, Jumping, Ningyo, Osu, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya-chan, and Axis Powers Hetalia (since the episodes are only 5 minutes long, I guess they could count here). |

| Seems I won't mention anything new xD Anyway: I simply adore Kigeki, La Maison en Petit Cubes and Diary of Tortov Roddle. Those are among my all-time favourites. |
| Hmmm ... Kigeki, Ani*Kuri 15, La Maison en Petits Cubes, She and Her Cat and REC . |
| Egao + Higepiyo |
| Neko Ramen! Just wrote a review on it...check it out. ^^) |
| I loved Kung-Fu Love <333 Awesome anime. And also Kigeki :D |
 |
| I've started to watch Hetalia. I wish Social Studies class was taught this way back in the day. Pretty funny take on the countries around the 1940s. They've personified the countries. Love the short epidodes. |

| Kogepan... Koge dakara! |
| a good one i like is She and Her Cat |
| There is no reason for me to stay in the real world any longer. In the real world, it dosen't matter if I am here or not. When I realize that, I am no longer afraid of losing my body. |
| I loved - Kigeki, she and her cat, push I Liked (very much) - Mizu no Kotoba, Pale cocoon, Kagami no Genon. |
| I loved La Maison en Petits Cubes, She and Her Cat,Egao,Kigeki, Pale Cocoon,REC,Chi's Sweet Home and Damekko Doubutsu :) |
| Definietly HETALIAAAAA!!! <333333 |
| Well, I'm a huge Di Gi Charat fan so I definitely have to put those on my short list of shorts. The original shorts that aired as part of Wonderful and the later TV specials were both very twisted and funny. I actually fansubbed a bunch of it back in the days of VHS. Sexy Commando Gaiden, Sugoi-yo! Masaru-san is another favorite of mine (and another product of the Wonderful program). In fact, it's one of the few shounen fighting shows I care for. Both Oruchuban Ebichu and Koume-chan Ga Iku! (Here Comes Koume!) were both part of the Modern Love's Silliness program and quite a bit of fun. I actually prefer Koume to Ebichu. I actually helped with the Ebichu fansubs (the Masaru-san ones too), but could never get anyone else interested in Koume. Android Ana Maico 2010 that was part of the Anime Complex anthology series is great. It's like WKRP with a robot. Way better than the manga, which was cliche-ridden and utterly forgettable. Also from Anime Complex, Omishi Magical Theater Risky Safety is a very good show. It does an excellent job of being sweet and funny in turns. |
| Thanks for those Jeleinen - like me you do love the old ones too - I will just begin to watch Sexy Commando and move on too Andriod 2010, but finding it a bit tricky to find Koume-chan Ga IKU! ....and will add Omishi Magical Theater Risky Safety to our relations list |

Another fan of Ebichu! And slenderfall-san, you have yet to watch it as well as Momoiro Sisters...old school ecchi and hilarious! Plus, they are less than 15 mins. per episode. |
| I just finished La Maison en Petit Cubes and must say... this is the first time I experienced Art in anime. For some reason it really reminded me of 'The Old Man and the Sea' even though the only things they have in common is that they both contain an old man and a sea... I'm sure The Old Man and the Sea could be portrayed very artistically... perhaps their greatness are comparable? :) |
| "Don't believe in the you that believes in me. Don't believe in the me that believes in you. Believe in the you that believes in yourself." |
| Haven't seen all that many shorts...yet. Need to check some of the ones mentioned here. But so far I'd say Detroit Metal City Sexy Commando Gaiden Dogs: Bullets & Carnage (I want a series) Fireball (so nonsensical you can't help like it) Genius Party and Genius Party Beyond (especially Moondrive was great) and ofc Higepiyo and Hetalia Axis Powers |

I'm not a particular fan of Petrov but he's appreciated as one of the greatest temporary animators. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Man_and_the_Sea_%281999_film%29 Check it on youtube and such, it's worth it. |

| While I gave it a touch my 7+ scored shorts list goes as (in desecending order) Diary of Tortov Roddle Atama Yama She and Her Cat Pale Cocoon Cat Soup Mizu no Kotoba Kigeki Kikumana |

| Going to have to add Binchou-tan to this list - so optimistic with a really depressing undertone - do not be put of by it's young apperance. I just love this show for so many reasons |

TwoSoxs said: New favorites Hairy Tale - surprised it was even allowed On your Mark *bribes slender with some..... liquor Not sure why you are bribing me but I accept :P |

| Kogepan ... another my favorite short. I want more ! :P |
| Dark Side Cat. I loved it. It needs more love. Also really liked She and Her Cat and Azumanga Daioh: The Very Short Movie. :D |
| I love Daicon opening animation |
 |
| Forgot why I bribed you slender. Old age syndrome and all :) Anyways for those of you that haven't seen Mura Matsuri. If you like obscure and WTF go watch it.....and side-remark your allowed to stare at the screen and go WTF several times. Just be prepared to watch something truly ancient. |
| My favourites are: La Maison en Petits Cubes (one of the best anime of any length I have seen) Pictures at an Exhibition (if you are counting Winter Days and Yurumates as shorts, then this counts as well) REC (Not perfect, but nice and enjoyable, suprisingly mature as well) Water Brain (15 minutes, so it just counts) Although it's not a true short, I really enjoyed Pale Cocoon as well. Looks like I'm going to have to check out Binchou-tan as well. It had a moeblob-thing on the cover and a relatively low rating, so it didn't seem like a likely candidate for a buried treasure, but if slender enjoyed it, I suppose there is more to it then what meets the eye. I generally don't pay attention to the ratings, but low rated moeblob/ecchi shows are generally rated low for a reason. |

| Kore ga UFO da! Soratobu Enban - I love old animes and the subs make it such a great experince |

| La Maison on Petit Cubes aside... I love Yamamura Kouji, especially Inaka Isha. Based on a short story by Kafka. The animation is great. Also Muybridge's Strings. An hommage to animation. Clever and stunning. Hotchi Kazuhiro has made gorgeously animated shorts, light hearted and colorful, but his best one is a much darker short called Anima, which struck me deeply. I also love Morimoto Kouji. Especially his surreal shorts like Dimension Loop. I actually prefer him over Otomo, which i think it's pretty similar. |
| Tsumiki no Ie is cool indeed, but if I have choose, it's in a completely different register but I think Gakkatsu would take the cake ! |
| Mizu no Kotoba because sci-fi and animation. Also Wakanai Buta, I love dementia shorts. |
