Comments:
For a show that's supposed to be so thought provoking, it sure got a
predictable plot. And frankly, I don't find this animation all that
great. Hermes is pretty well done and some of the closer background
images are decent, but the rest lacks definition. Simpleness is fine,
but you can't give up definition for anything.
Image1: Who's that in front of Hermes? If you haven't seen it, I
won't tell you. I did like the bike scene at the end.
Image2: Look at the pillars, ceiling, walls, and the ground. Lack of
definition, I tell you. How do you suppose Hermes moved over to the
other carriage? Now, that's far harder to figure out than the story.
