Mixed Feelings

In the time it took you to read this sentence, you could have likely already finished watching this anime. Port of Wormy is an interesting piece to attempt to rate. I wouldn’t want to downrate something just because it’s short, but this is extremely short. A whopping a whopping 15 seconds. Obviously, you won’t get a story in that amount of time, so it’s moot to attempt to rate that. The art itself is good, I quite enjoy the surreal visuals - Mirai’s rendering of a port scenery. The creativity is as usual for his works. That said, I would still like at least a crumbof context. Were this anime not the length of a gif, I wouldn’t struggle to give it a rating that’s more than average.

Am I really going to write a review for a 15-second video? You betcha! Mirai Mizue is known for his unique animated videos of swirling, always-changing shapes and colors - probably the best example of this is the "Timber A to Z" series. This video is not really any different from that (he's really a one-trick pony). The thing is, this is nothing more than a 15-second clip. It feels like you have been dropped right in the middle of something much larger. A snippet of a scene, no starting point, no ending point, just acut of some strange alien landscape with dissonant tones in the background. There's nothing particularly bad with what we see -- it's just there is zero context. Why does this even exist? Is it part of a larger, longer story or video? If so, why can't we see that? If not, then what's the point of this?
