This is well put together - it tells a story, the music is great (but not overwhelming), the interviews work together and I learned something! I liked that the imagery varied - that it shows the performers and the street and then includes shots that are pretty (and well-framed!) and even used the black/white line drawing while talking about anime. Kudos!
