Survival
Director Koji Morimoto, together with a 228-member staff, spent 1,080 hours completing the GLAY 2.7D animation version of “Survival”. Based on the theme of a young girl’s nihility, this story is about an ordinary high school girl who, amidst feelings of uncertainty, anguish, and chaos in modern-day society, gets in touch with her feelings and rediscovers herself. This is a story with which many generations sympathize. Sold as a video single, Survival created quite a stir when it recorded unprecedented sales.(Source: Studio 4°C)
