A very bittersweet story
This flash is just lovely. It tugs all the right heartstrings, and unlike a lot of 'sad' childrens' stories today, this one actually does pull it off very nicely without seeming ridiculously cliched. The animation and style is very haunting as well, and the lack of proper facial shots of any of the other characters really adds to the feeling of loneliness. The music is just right, setting the perfect, child-like tone. Overall, this is a very sweetly sad animation.
