Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

Yes... while Hiro Shitaku is fictional (means, not real...), the remaining goodness in this "edu-mation" (at over seven minutes long) is accurate, and with a bit of comedy, will explore the history and techniques of the Japanese animation industry. I had a lot of fun making it, and I hope everyone enjoy's watching it!

** Disclaimer: to avoid confusion, Hiro was not a real person. However, all of the techniques discussed in this film were instead created by the industry as a whole to deal with their insane production quotas. Learn, laugh, but please don't take this film 100% seriously. Sorry.

i think im turning japanese!

nice job man, I dont really understand who hiros supposed to represent... is it the different companies that contributed to modern day anime? well, id like to say nice job again. I love the ending song!

you are a great story teller

that was just a fun movie to watch. if i said everthing i wanted to say it would take forever to type. so plain and simple good job.

That was AWESOME!!

You're movie was informative, fun, quirky, humorous....any other descriptive word that I cant think of cause I want to praise you so much :P NEWAY. . . .that was a cery well animated movie and I cant wait to see more!!!

entertaining intellect

A slightly entertaining documentary. The humor is on an intellectual level rather than bust a gut funny. However I found it funny as mockumentary goes.

Anime has come a long way.

If that's not how it happened, I guess it evolved over hundreds of years or something. Funny and educational.Sort of.
