[@kenchien4486]

Plz make more vids

[@JoyPitch]

Aww, thats rude, man, even if he said it in a positive connotation. Porter is very modest person, great composer and kind of anime director now, I wouldn’t have the audacity to call him “ours”. He is too far away from most of us, even from Gigguk, who just makes trash videos.

actually, I'm kind of waiting for this to become a trend. I think its one the positives of youtube being able to connect content creators around the world like this.

[@yuishigami8108]

Hey there, remember those cringe stickman days

[@zoaero]

Yeah truth is i need sequel but if i dont is ok too but if this really got anime its perfect

[@TheKiwiJobes]

I love it how a small music video is more popular than a load of fanservice harem animes we see getting put out all year around. Hopefully, this will push creators to look into more meaningful storylines and characters.

[@SovietRipper]

As expected, since this has an actual meaning with quality and is made to last, unlike self insert animes generic harem ecchi shows who are consumables and niche who is just a response to the social state of the current japanese society. Actually believe it or not ecchi shows are not that popular in Japan most of them air super late at night there or inclusive like at 3-4am. You will ask "Then, why theres so much of this content" because the people who consumes this material (single-solitary japanese midle class salary man) spends a lot of money into it, so they never really run out of steam , then add that most of that shows are cheap to make, just a bunch of waifus, static backgrounds, self insert basic plot and done, easy money even with an small animation studio, they're not trying to make art, they're just milking a money machine, wich is sad sometimes because theyre making profit thanks to the loneliness of the japanese. l Ecchi/fanservice shows can be good when they're done right tho, like Keijo this year who is a super self aware show and straighfoward.

[@TI-oz7rg]

TheKiwiJobes that's so true. Shelter is a very inspiring video for me

[@thor-jh2jq]

Crunchyroll I would love to see this an an actual series. you could use the music video as the intro. and maybe as an introduction into the series you could show the events before she had a life within a shelter (alt. reality room).

[@Tera_GX]

Kyoso Giga's later adaptation was pleasant. Mekakucity Actors too.

[@calebkim9211]

thor5683 i dunno i feel like as a series it might ruin it in a way. There are times where i feel like some things shouldnt be dragged on or it ends better as it did. thou thats just my opinion. maybe one day thisll inspire something amazing

[@Arc3u5]

The irony.

[@leonardpulig9364]

I'm glad that Madeon wasn't overlooked in the production of this video and his name is shown during the intro

[@MXCN_El1011]

Rip Madeon in every other reference to the track and video tho

[@Sutchii_]

what did madeon do in the video?

[@leonardpulig9364]

Nothing in the video, but the shelter track was co-produced with Madeon and although this was mainly about the music video/animation, I'm happy to see Madeon being credited. The song is such a huge part of the animation and I don't think it would have been the same if Madeon weren't part of this project.

[@neoexc]

Leonard Pulig Basically Shelter is Beings 2. All the soft touching and sensation touches and vocals (except Amy Milan) created by Madeon.

I found this much more impact than the short itself. It shows the passion of the creative minds behind it and to me that is much more moving than I can really begin to explain.

[@hemangchauhan2864]

Well, the "context" gives a piece of art much more life and meaning.

[@expcake]

Yeah, just seeing US and Japanese pop cultures passionately merge like this feels odd but in a warm kind of way. Granted, it probably happens more than I think it does, but just witnessing it feels pretty great.

EDM and Anime = perfect combination

[@misusatriyo]

erlinadewi- yep, but in my opinion it isn't EDM, it is an electronic music without the "dance" aspect in it. The music is very much different than that of Zedd's, Steve Aoki, Chainsmokers, or other popular EDM "DJs".

[@gauravpalsingh3505]

@Misu Satriyo Thank you.

[@misusatriyo]

Nesquick Guy​​​​​ because you called me retarded, i assume that it's okay for me to call you stupid right? First, i DID NOT say that "only famous DJs must produce EDM music". Second, music is a matter of PERSONAL TASTE, and nobody should interfere with that. Third, i never said that those DJs i mentioned are good nor bad, who told you that? Oh and btw, next time, learn about the definition of the word "opinion" first before you stated your own opinion.

[@raisondetre7964]

+Misu Satriyo Actually you could dance to this....

[@misusatriyo]

Rufino actually you could dance to anything. But my point is, this song isn't specifically designed for dancing. In some past interviews, Porter even stated that he hates EDM.

[@Gcool243]

Please, please, please, something like this has to be created again. Never before have I ever been so immersed in a story. And the crazy part is, I don't typically even like the type of music Porter puts out, but "Shelter", along with the video, was absolute perfection. I'm tearing up just thinking about it again. God, what an amazing piece of work that was created. Thank you. thank you to everyone that helped make "Shelter" happen

[@navaldude92]

I actually teared up and cried a little when i watched this. The music video and short film was breathtaking. I love A-1 Studios. favorite anime studio. Discovered porter through that video. Its a dream of mine to also see an anime studio like A-1 create anime. Its a huge part of my life and has helped me through such tough times. Always calms me down, give me goosbumps and think hours on end about the series i watched. Every detail. Thank you so much porter and A-1 Studios for what you do, from the bottom of my soul. I hope i can visit japan one day and visit!

[@tfgv.2775]

Le Dom What did Reddit say about it?

[@Scoin0]

The mods over at /r/anime said it wasn't anime. They are sometimes stupid. I believe they said that it is the equivalent to having a Japanese studio making a spongebob episode.

[@FirmansyahSumardi]

Yeah, I agree, this IS anime. Clearly A-1 Pictures making the animation of Shelter, and everyone knows who A-1 Pictures is. Just because Porter contribute as the original creator / executive producer with his song and story, and suddenly this wont become anime? Please.

[@Scoin0]

Firmansyah Sumardi Yeah, I'm happy the mods got shutdown so quickly and the post was re uploaded.

[@PegbordFegs]

kinda feel bad for the A-1 animators, they're like "Porter's such a great guy and an artistic genius" and Porter's like "yeah they were pretty good"

[@SpenzOT]

Yeah but A-1 doesn't really have anything to prove, while on the other hand, Porter had a huge hurdle ahead of him. Nobody put any real expectation on him (mainly because the only other artists to actually have done this is Daft Punk), and by succeeding wildly in this endevour, he really amped it up by proving that he can do more than just great music. The fact that he impressed the professionals as much as he did shows how much effort he put into it. Overall though, I am hoping that this experience rubs off on the people involved, including the professionals, because that 6 min short had more story, more detail, and more emotion than most other series' have in their entire 12-24 episode run.

[@TrevorTV]

SpenzOT Here's to hoping someone catches on to this. Only shows I've really enjoyed to this same level recently are Haikyuu and Erased.

[@coenweits1722]

Nguyễn Phạm Ngọc Khánh that's cool. just looking at the two I'd have thought it was the other way around. lol. tho, I do know porter's involvement with anime anyways.. so there's that

[@NilakshMalpotra]

@Threee Quent I don't know. I'm a huge madeon fan, I discovered this song through him, but yeah the short film/anime itself was entirely Porter's vision. Since Crunchyroll is an anime dedicated site, so they didn't mention it. Every single glimpse of anything related to the movie makes me want to cry now😅😅

[@ProjectSun91]

This is a good sign that Anime is getting more international recognition than it truly deserves as a unique art to fully appreciate. As independently-produced projects are becoming more and more mainstream in western culture these days, this is a good sign for the anime industry at large if companies like A-1 realizes that they can find ways to incorporate their brand into little startups like Shelter. It shows that there’s at least some part of the anime industry that wants to be progressive and adventurous by appealing to the ever-shifting mindset of media consumers. It means that they understand their audience better than most of us thought, particularly their western audience since the domestic audience still supports and consumes anime in traditional ways. Hopefully this sets a new trend for more Western/International singers as well as directors/producers to collaborate with anime studios to appeal new-comers. The Animatrix is also a good example of this, the results are pretty cool.

[@nom2137]

[@jjet318]

When the video was shown at Shibuya street ahead of being uploaded on KZbin, I was there. It was an amazing experience because the video was full of Porter's love for Anime and Japan, where I was born and grew up, where the video set, and of course where I stood then. So I felt the video and the song were, in a sense, more real than the reality. Yeah I really love the video.

[@modestea9667]

Just knowing that the producers daughter's name was Rin and he wanted to keep it in , made me imagine her watching this knowing that her dad named the character after her and wanted to tell her that he would do this if it meant her survival , and she would understand it , made me want to cry more.

pyr666 in all fairness to a1 they do go all out on animation if nothing else sword art online had some beautiful animation also the older fairy tail series was animated well ... your lie in April I could go on but you get the jist

[@Reydriel]

A-1 has no problems in the animation side of things... it's the others :P

[@noodlesmccheesecakes7733]

I wish people would make more breathtaking projects like this. I've been watching anime since i was 5 and it has so much great potential, it breaks my heart that people don't see that.

[@kazaki03]

Asura Black Many people can make these things but they lack funds, exposure and appreciation. Indie artists like me always get these kinds of ideas but they always end up in the trash can because of lack of time, funds and support from people. Trust me, there are millions out there waiting for your support.

[@noodlesmccheesecakes7733]

Kazaki (Crisel15) I agree. What i meant was that there are a lot of people who look at anime just as stupid, weird cartoons, while this is the real kind of beautiful art that is anime

[@kazaki03]

Yes, and that too, can't deny that, since I've been through that since I first watched Sailormoon in the 90s. (unrelated side note, I realized that I can spiritually relate to Porter Robinson's works (and Owl City's) better than other artists because we're all Cancer zodiac people haha)

Everyone who help created this masterpiece did a amazing job A touching story flawless animation and nice song The song really suits everything making everyone understand what is the film trying to say to the viewers

[@TI-oz7rg]

JosHHHy what is the video trying to say?

[@honokav281]

the short film that you guys made i think make the ones who watched it cry i loved it...aww can't stop crying ;(

[@serenadecovers]

man youve been a blast

[@kelkiiii]

Porter Robinson is a gift to the human race.

[@Binks129]

I've always dreamed of working on an anime but thought I wouldn't be able to get there since I'm not Japanese but this opens so many windows... Porters an inspiration.

[@MineH4lo]

A BTS that makes my eyed leak... This is awesome!

[@taroven6024]

I already enjoyed Shelter As a short film, but now, after learning about the amount of passion that went into this project, I love it even more.

[@JudgeSama]

Beautiful story.

[@exstee]

Wow.. Didn't know so much heart and soul went into creating this gem. Truly inspirational.

[@ALTER_7]

I hope more Porter and A-1 collab a lot more. I really hope this isn't just a one time thing.

[@haziqmuzafar7883]

I just love the name "Rin" and im soooooooooooooooooo glad he decided to use it. If i were to create a character and name her it would definitely be Rin.

[@TheBrokenEclipse]

Stunning. I hope the premise of the story will develop into a fully fledged story and film.

[@justzack641]

Umm..... I don't think that would be a good idea. You see, the music video is already so perfect it brought us a lot of emotions in that mere 6 minutes. Best to just let it stay that way.

[@darksoul8053]

Here after 6 years. Pls continue Rin's story
