4:20 I love how instead of her pupil becoming small and a stripe like they usually do in animations and other medias, her's became big and round, as when a cat is preparing to attack. More realistic in this aspect.
-
A detail lots of people have missed is that a 1:01 it’s actually written that it was at first a robbery that escalated to a murder that happened in her house. This increase the impact when you realize she also tried to steal fuel and killed someone in the process. She truly turned like her own monster.
-
What gets me the most is that at 5:20 she sees the dead or dying gas station worker and yet it doesn’t even register to her because she is so obsessed with getting the fuel for her car. Genuinely chilling when I first noticed.
-
I adore how we see every memory from a third person perspective but it turns first person after she sees her reflection and realizes what she’s doing.
-
The moment where she was dripping with blood and excitement just trying to find this killer for her husband, and looking up to see not the criminal eyes, but her own really just crushed me.
-
just noticed this, but i love how her flashbacks at first are like her being disassociated from her own body. she’s not seeing it exactly how she saw it while it happened, she’s watching as a third person, but then when she realizes the mistakes she had just made, her flashbacks are seen in first person. she’s back in her own body, seeing through her own eyes.
-
The scene where she breaks down and realizes she's become the very monster she's been ready to torment for so long never fails to leave me crying.
-
6:26 The way the light just fades away in her husband's eyes, it really shows the life had left his eyes literally. Such small details like that is absolutely my favorite and it makes this moment all the more sad and tragic.
-
As someone with ptsd, nothing is scarier than seeing similarities between yourself and your abuser. The mirror scene illustrated that really beautifully
-
The scene with the eyes in the mirror was really well done.
-
To me, the most emotional part was her, looking at what she had done at the end. The way she just kneels down. The gas station owner probably had someone who loved him too. And she inflicted the same pain on his loved one. I rewatched it and one awesome detail was that there's a no smoking sign, right above his head as he's looking at her. At first I thought he kind of caused this on himself but she literally attacks him with a sharp object.
-
i always thought the sentence "their heart sank" was just silly. But this animation genuinely made my heart pull down.
-
I think that this film captures "grief is just love with nowhere to go" perfectly. Absolutely incredible.
-
I love how she didn’t even get time to grieve when he died, she immediately sought out revenge and that was all she could think of until she saw her reflection in the mirror and seen she had become the thing she was trying to get revenge on, then the grief hits her.

日本語で紹介されていたショートから来ました。 アニメーションのかわいさが悲劇の残酷さをより引き立てていて切なくて素晴らしかったです。
-
it’s the fact that she realises that she’s becoming the monster in the end which has me sobbing my eyes out
-
I like how all the memories are shown in third person perspective; up until the point she sees her eyes and realizes what shes doing. Like she'd been disconnecting herself from reality so she could be brave enough to act with cruelty, and it resulted in tragedy. Just like the robber who killed her husband.
-
I loved how the husband isn't just a plot device. Usually when a character dies as backstory they never get developed, but here can really get a sense of who he was and how deeply he loved his wife. Congratulations to the team on making such an amazing short!

写真の目のとこミラーで自分の目と重なるのまじで神演出過ぎんか
-
This made me so emotional, I cried. This was so heartwarming but also heartbreaking at the same time. It gives me a weird, undescribable feeling, and I love it.
