The narration by the girl starts out all right but begins to grind irritatingly on my nerves after its' unceasing banter turns into a steady monotonous drone . The voice acting needs some work. The artwork was rather nice which is where most of the three stars comes from. Girl with multicolored eyes, huge book freak, likes throwing knives? That's a kinda kinky premise and I can dig that. There was a hint of music that could evolve into something more. A little too much slow panning across still images, which is something the Japanese artists have been outgrowing for a while now. Let's hope the full-length movie actually has the action included in it. This short film pretty much had no action at all, which means the bigger picture doesn't advertise for itself very good.
