On the second day of TOHO animation’s 10th anniversary ‘Music Films’ project, my true love gave to me: a heartfelt music video about a young girl’s temporary escape from family drama into a magical land, featuring music performed by Ryokuoushoku Shakai (A Couple of Cuckoos OP) and animation directed by Namiko Ishidate (Penguin Highway animation director).

 

“Nana’s Secret Garden” Music Film

 

The other three parts of the five-part collaborative project will be released as follows at 6pm JST:

 

  • March 22: “Neko to Wakai se na” by Hentai Shinshi Club with Mizuki Ito
  • March 23: “Detarame na Sekai no Melodrama” by CreepHyp with China at TOHO animation STUDIO
