@@hyperflares2879 A lot of the fluid motion of cloth for one. The sheer attention to detail is not only very expensive, it requires a very large number of people working on individual frames. Japan historically had swarms of animators in poor living conditions who were paid very little money, allowing some of the legendary animations to be done by overwhelmingly deep pools of talent. Nowadays, the only way to regain access to that kind of dedicated skill in a feature length is to pour vast amounts of money into it over a long period of time with a director with a specific vision. The budget just isn't there. You could hypothetically get it by being unethical to your animators too, as some studios try, but that's likely to alienate everyone who might watch your film. That, and money-grubbers care less about the quality of the final product so they're unlikely to make such a product. On the other hand, having a low budget isn't always bad. The final episode of the original Gunbuster anime isn't colored and the majority of the action scenes are still images from concept art boards with music played over them. They made the tone work despite completely lacking the wealth to pull off animation of that scene, so you really do get the sense of a battle involving millions fighting trillions for the fate of the galaxy.

The phrase "glittery, bright sadness" perfectly encapsulates this music video. Also, while it looks like it ends on a positive note, most of the visuals are the girl's fantasies, so it's entirely possible that the ending we see was just another daydream while she's still stuck in her office. I mean, the story starts with her trying to get to some kind of Visual Kei concert, and then at the end, the singer from the beginning picks her up in the spaceship. That just screams "it was all just a dream" to me.

@@MrRemmington I **was** going to say: "The (sequenced?) synth is a bit too frantic to really sound exceptionally 80's to me. Most 80's synth is either actually starkly simple or it goes for multitracked layers of synth, rather than blazing runs like a pop-adulterated 70's scale-playing prog keyboardist. Staying in the realm of synth-rock that's about spaceships and sounds like it came out of an anime, I'd peg something like "Take It to the Sun" (kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXekeoJvga13jtE) as sounding more thoroughly 80's to my ears- all the way down to having Asia's vocalist guest. " But then thinking of Asia brought back to my mind "Hard on Me" (kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpuuZaWXeah3rqM) from 1987, which starts with a notably frenetic, sequenced synth run that reappears throughout the track. Granted, most of that band was old prog alumni from the 70's, too, but if that song doesn't sound 80's, I don't know what does. Album cover looks the part, too. So, I suppose: OBJECTION WITHDRAWN, YOUR HONOR. (The production still sounds thoroughly modern, but I'll concede the rest.) This song remains maddeningly catchy, despite being nowhere near my typical fare. There's a perverse brilliance to the lyrics.

The fact I can't get it out of my head like a catchy commercial is so meta it's amazing (and I would have absolutely bought one in a heartbeat!)

I finally took the time to pause and check out all the details in the video. It's super cool and I suggest you do the same. For example, the agreement to buy the ship is that Hato (that's her name. Also, her blood type is blue) agrees to pay 20 million won (almost exactly $15,000) each month for a Graham number of years (super big number). That's $180,000 per year for basically ever. Then again, if it can actually go faster than light, that'd allow her to go back in time and only ever make the first payment. Edit: Thanks to Amadeus Nagamine for correcting me.

@@Berstich Honestly, it's hard to say how much of it is real, and how much is just her imagination. This song is pretty much a huge advert for a spaceship, but the subtext is that the young woman we're following is living a boring mundane life, and she's imagining how much more exciting her life could be if she had a cool spaceship, a dream that's actively being fueled by the advertisement. In practice, it's kind of like an extreme version of those luxury car commercials, that make it look and sound like buying it would turn your life around and fill it with adventure and romance.
