The video, while honestly just as NSFW as Me!Me!Me!, is just as visually gorgeous in how the animation is utilized. Each colour and stylistic choice just looked good, and the music was extremely catchy.
I was especially fond of the spoiler[ appearance of the characters from Me!Me!Me!.] It seemed to hint that there may actually be an interconnected story being built here. Hopefully we get to see another part to this in the next round. |

Was there a next round? I thought it was supposed to be over at 30.

If it's over at 30, I'll honestly be disappointed. There have been some really cool shorts released through this (not just the two connected ones here). |

ME!ME!ME! generated so much hype on the internet after its initial release, I am expecting this one to as well.

The first was mostly because of the rampant and crazy sexual imagery. This one is definitely pretty and a bit sexy, but not on the same plane at all. |

Someone on a previous article said somewhere on the website it says there are going to be 35. But we'll see. |

I just watched this on the website this morning. It's breath-takingly gorgeous, and I prefer the songs used in this one than in Me!Me!Me!. Not that those songs were bad per say, but I liked the more mellow and jazzy sounds of these ones.
It's not nearly as NSFW as Me!Me!Me! though, and maybe not even that confusing or symbolism heavy. I took it as the story of a really lonely girl who is sick of her boring reality, believing herself to be the only unique individual around. The dreaming and prince motifs, plus the actions of her "alter ego" just adds more to this interpretation. |

I think I'm just kinda blind in finding the info, but who is the singer for the song? The voice sounds somewhat familiar, but maybe not so I'm unsure...

I like the way you worded it.  I was thinking along the same lines, feeling additionally that she was curious about love while also cautious of it. Seeing the girl from Me!Me!Me! being happy with her normality threw her into confusion and "despair" because she can't feel satisfied even in a seemingly interesting world of her own device... Of course this is just an interpretation. 
I love how the idea behind these shorts is left to you, while also making a show of simply gorgeous animation. Can't wait to see more. |

Animation-wise it's not really that interesting. Too many with nothing moving and just psychedelic colors and computer special effects. People are just commenting since it's anime girl but without that style |

What happened to all the guys in the city? They just disappeared before she turned all the girls into those flower creatures.
The other thing is that "ME! ME! ME!" caught everyone by surprise at it all. That surprise is going to be extremely tough to replicate, as expectations are now a lot wider. |

I found that the girl in the video somewhat resembled the Meme (the blue-haired) girls in ME!ME!ME! that were a part of Hana (the pink-haired girl)'s psyche, and given that she spends a lot of time distorting reality I think it might be representative of the whole fantasy/reality duality they've shown in both videos.
So if Hana is "reality", Meme is "fantasy"? Of course, like everything else, it's up to interpretation. |
