Now this was totally uncalled for.
Neither was it cute or funny, it was just grotesque and ugly, even the only thing KyoAni seems not to suck at KnK - namely the animation - isn't anything to look at, and the CG is awful.

I loved it. Cute and funny. Especially loved the Ai wordplay. Keep it up, KyoAni, my third favorite studio, after Trigger and Silver Link.

So this short was about Akihito's fetish. Given the concept, I'd imagine the next short will be about Hirofumi's sis-con fetish, right? I wonder who's going to be the last one.

Geez, I'd like to hear your critiques on other shorts... the fact that they actually had ANY actual animation that wasn't CG puts this in the 95th percentile for short quality.

^ sure. Even being in the 95th percentile doesn't mean it's any good though...

The dance/idol part itself looked pretty awful, but I have to admit I chuckled when Ai proclaimed "The verdict is... you are gross" in her cute and happy tone.

Anyway, very neat of KyoAni to upload these for all to see on Youtube instead of only putting them on the BD/DVD.
