Well in the description "Kai", is awakened when the man aka the Giant found a flower that reminded him of his childhood. Kai, she goes through his memories to help the Giant release his emotions instead of keeping it in as seen at the end.
@@bionicleanimatedofficial8207 "because they got too old to be friends"...i've been there,..i used to be friends with a member of the opposite sex as a kid, but after awhile the father said we were too old to be friends, i didn't understand, i still don't.
I love how the character needs more effort to get into the bad memories, because the person was trying so hard to forget it. I also like how the animation shows the feeling moving around the person's belly, and having such a hard time to get out through the eyes as tears. At the end, the bad memories are just a grain of sand compared to the good ones, so there's no need to feel so sad about it when you had more good times than bad times. To tell the truth, you only know that the good moments were really good because you had bad moments to compare to it. I also love how the character keeps a forget me not flower with him, showing that he's not going to keep trying to forget that bad memories. What a great work :)
I had a friend who I was super close with, and I have so many memories of goofing off with him and being inseparable. Then one day, he just... vanished. Empty house, no calls, no returning texts. I don't know what happened to him, and I can't begin to imagine what it be like if I met him now, but I'll always treasure the times I spent with him.
Losing any of the friends I've ever had didn't really feel like a loss at all, wether I chose to cut off with them, or we just drifted away. Even tho, this reminded me of my first ever best friend, back when I was 3. I only know his name and his face because my mom kept a photo of us togheter. For some reason, a lot of people appreciated me when I was young, but he was apparently the only one who could follow me around without annoying me. I honnestly don't remember much, except he would argue with my two girl friends to spend time with me and I would keep a chair especially for him during the meetings in nursery school. When I injured myself quite badly, he was with me and as I was bleeding, he immediatly put the wound under running water and saught out for help. I think I remember how his presence felt like. And I remember when my parents changed me from school, thinking "What about him ?". I thought they moved me out of there in favor of another place because I was too much of a baby and basically cried everyday when my mom would drop me at that old school in the morning. I've grown out to be not so much of a crier, as I've been confirmed a few times later in life that it's no use, when you meet an obstacle. But somehow, I've just cried for someone I don't really remember.
I’m in total awe with the stylistic choices made, the movement was so fluid and beautiful. An amazing shot, definitely will be coming back to it when I’m feeling down!
It gets tough when you need to say goodbye to someone, needless to say, we forget the color in the memories that were once filled with laughter. Everything and i mean e v e r y t h i n g takes their time to heal, it gets hard at first but eventually we reach the stage for acceptance. It left me a bittersweet aftertaste and I found myself still teary eyed as i laughed over the memories. In the memory of you and I, I am truly moved with this film. The color palette and how the story was driven. Absolute love, thank you so much for sharing. This gave me a sense of relief, of nostalgic tears. 💕
I love watching these animated shorts, because they can make you feel all the feelings in less than 10 minutes. Something which even most of the 2 hours long movies can't do often.
I find myself missing old friends too. I'll wonder what they are up to, and end up thinking about when I saw them last. And before I know it, I realize I probably won't be able to see them again no matter how hard I try to look. But I always remember their names
Most of us had that one person in our life with whom we felt the connection once and following the consequences it was lost. This reminded me of the good memories which were overlained by the bad ones before. Everyone deserves healing.
My God! The influence of Masaaki Yuasa is clear in a bunch of quirks of the animation and even in some visual winks to his works throughout. But still, it manages to shine in its own unique way. Beautiful animation and a beautiful concept of a story.
This video is very beautiful, not only for its aesthetics, but for the friendly way in which it represents the duel or sad memories that make us feel in childhood, to such a degree that it even made me cry, this type of videos I love animation and cinema, I hope I am not too cloying or make someone uncomfortable, it really is beautiful.
This is a really soulful, touching story! And the visuals, while clearly inspired by the masterpiece that is Masaaki Yuasa's "Kaiba", still add their own spin and look unmistakeably unique. Great work overall, I've been rewatching this over and over ever since I saw it.
letting go is about recognizing the happy memories and the painful ones no matter how uncomfortable they might seem. only then can we fully accept reality on reality's term and have the courage to go on with our lives. beautiful.
I think the most beautiful thing is that the Yellow Kid still embraces and loves the sad memory as much as they did the others. It's sad and painful but it is still an important part of their life.
oh, my heart.. 🥺 it hurts, sometimes, looking back on lost friendships. but its always comforting to look back on the happy ones and just let the tears flow out.
It reminded me of my childhood friend, Mat. He was such a sweet, cheerful boy. When I was around six, he died sudennly on a holiday trip. It was my first encounter with death of someone dear. As a child I didn't know what it meant exactly, he just dissapered so suddenly, become a memory.
wow this actually made me cry. i love the colours, the smooth animation, and the moving narration. i like how Robin doesn't necessarily have to be dead to be missed. i like how the sad memory can be something happy because there are so many other happy moments to go with it. i like how Mika's pent-up grief is let out by the bad and good memories as tears. i even like how it was harder to get into the bad memory because it was something that Mika is not as willing to remember. all of these factors make for a very touching film. made me tear up multiple times. as heart-warming as it is heart-wrenching. very relatable. thank you for this!
This hit too hard for me I'm LITERALLY CRYING RN. The reason though is actually because there was a kid named Mia who wanted to become my friend in the 1st grade. We ended up always hanging out together with some of my other few friends. But, our friendship lasted only 3 years until Mia had to leave my school, of course I never found the reason and it was until a week after I was informed she left when I asked the teachers why she had been absent for so long....i cried myself to sleep.
Hiding and pushing down the pain also hides and pushes down the good memories too, to let out the pain you cry, and once you release the pain and you can remember the good times , peace and happiness again
When I was young, my best friend moved away. Since then, I’ve never really had another friend. This video really resonated with me. I feel like I’ve felt what the character is feeling here.
When I was 10 I went to spend my summer holidays in a small town, my family had rented a house there. In only a day and I had made a friend. He was spending his summer holidays with his family too. Over three weeks all we did was play and made good memories. Eventually he went back home as the holidays were coming to an end and so did I. All i knew was his name and im 24 today, all these years and the only thing i can remember is his name and the feeling of joy i had playing with him from morning till dark. I’m not obsessed but I do admit there are times when im alone with my thoughts, I think about him, I think about what happened to him, who he grew up to be, where he went, where he is, whether or not we crossed paths as adults and if he thinks about me like I think about him or that I’ve become a part of his childhood memory he has long forgotten.
This shows that the friendships we loose because of unfavourable circumstances could also be a cause of our tears after we have grown up. Some bad things happened in our childhood are very difficult to remove from our minds even after a long time.
Красивая короткометражка, которая показывает, что грустные воспоминания тоже часть нашей жизни. Что с расставанием трудно, но можно справиться. И Иногда лучший способ сбросить эмоциональный груз - это немного поплакать. Рекомендую детям и родителям. From Russia with love!
I cant write about how much i loved this short film properly bc im cRYING I LOVE the style, the movement, the colors! goddang, the expressions!! and the choice on sound- be it the small giggles, the water sound for the tears and the Beautiful music- it was just.. PERFECT! it was so wonderful and it lets you focus on the feeling of the animation so well I didnt fully get it at first- until i noticed the resemblance between the characters little and grown. It was so cute and sad- the remembering bits. But what really made me choke up and tear up was actually that little smile at the ending when there's finally this.. bittersweet- or sad but yet calm acceptance.. ahh it was so good ♥
I like that now that the bubbles are out, the sunlight can print them new happy memories. Like how accepting the past makes you mode ready to appreciate the future! The whole bubble metaphor is such a good idea, and I think it was used to its best potential.
Wow 🧡🧡 de ma VIE je n'aurai jamais imaginé quelque chose de pareil 🧡 les significations, les larmes et les souvenirs... Mais surtout l'Animation est GRANDIOSE !! Très belle et très fluide!
A heartbreaking truth expressed in a beautiful work of art. It's not only an impressive display of creativity, it's also a lesson about growing through our losses. Thank you, Gobelins!
This was so beautiful. Sometimes when you lose someone it's hard not to let the memory of their loss overpower all of the happy memories. That's probably why grief lasts so long. I'm coming up on the 8th anniversary of my uncle's death next week..this was such a beautiful thing to see so close to that anniversary. Thank you for making such a beautiful film.
Animation me faisant beaucoup penser à Masaaki Yuasa et notamment l'une de ses œuvres, Kaiba. C'est très jolie, très coloré, plein de sentiments, un vrai régale. Bonne continuation à toutes les personnes derrières le projet. Animation making me think a lot about Masaaki Yuasa and in particular one of his works, Kaiba.

Les couleurs et l’animation un peu déformée dans les souvenirs sont incroyables et les grands sourires des personnages sont si adorables, c’était super !
Apprendre à pleurer, très très beau short, il me touche particulièrement dans une période d'angoisse et de stress où j'ai moi-même du accepter que pleurer peux faire du bien, que ça peut nous aider à gérer nos émotions. Le style graphique m'a parfois rappeler Ponyo sur la falaise, les mouvements sont très organiques et colorés, que du plaisir
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!!!!! THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS!!! this honestly made my night XD I had to leave the country where I met se amazing people with wonderful personalities and it breaks my heart that I couldn't get to see much. This animation means alot to me and I'm glad I got to see it. Your very talented and epic. Thank you once again for sharing this beautiful thing with all of us ❤
I really loved the art direction here! The lineless style is amazing and that character design is super lovely. It kinda reminded me of kaiba in a way. The animation was also super beautiful. I love all the subtle movements that were added with the yellow character. Especially when they were maneuvering through the obstacles of the giant purple character. There was one hop that was just 👌 perfect. Thanks for making this short! It was super fun to watch!
im happy i decided to watch this. mika reminds me of myself, im alway holding down my true emotions when comes to certain topics not allowing myself to cry. even though i tell myself its okay and healthy to. but i dont like seeing others see me in that way
10/10💗💖💓🤧💗I really thought for a second at the end Robin and the guy we’re gonna get married u know? Like when he put those flower into his suit and I was just over here hoping that Robin would’ve came over and been like “ay it’s time for the wedding”💖💗✨💓❤️
It reminds me how every summer I waited for meeting with my best friend (every summer me and grandma went to village where she was born). And feeling that your whole world is turning grey every time my friend go back home (to another village) for a long time.
I like how he didnt forget. I've had too many people leave, too many names and friends that always part with a promise to keep in touch. It doesnt work. The easiest way to deal with the memories of the good times, and the bad, is to just forget them. I like how he didnt forget.
C'est dingue, avant les films des Gobelins n'étaient souvent qu'une démonstration technique, mais maintenant, c'est de vrais petits bijoux. Que ce soit graphiquement, ou dans le style d’animation, l'univers, les histoires... C'est superbe, vraiment bravo à l'équipe !!
Maybe I got the wrong impression but I wonder if Mika had feelings for Robin. I guess it's probably just stylistic choice but the eyelashes make Mika and the little creature Kai inside him look pretty feminine. When Kai goes around experiencing all the memories it looks like he gets flustered at 1:44 and there's lots of crying and joy which I suppose can be even with just the loss of a best friend but it gave me the impression there's something more there. Oh wait at 2:08 that's the memory of Robin giving him the flower. And they move out just as things seemed to be developing between them.
I had this friend when I was six, we were really close but she didn't come to school for a week. I asked my teacher why she wasn't coming to school and they me told she had moved to the other side of the state. I still miss her sometimes and I was pretty lonely after she left
This short is so good and amazing and beautiful! I love the animation and artistic style of it all. But my favorite part of it is how the music fits so well with the story and animation! I need to hear the song by itself!
The pure emotion portrayed by the characters in this were more than enough to get me emotional. I love this with everything inside of me. Amazing work.
Omg thit is pure arts and strong emotions!!! I have not seen a short with such a strong and fluid expression of emotiona for such a long time!!! Bravo! Your beautiful art style (ex: sometimes mutate the shape to express the feelings)makes me think of a really famous Japanese animator name Yuasa! I think his animation series"Kaiba" would definitely entertain you!
I think this was about “digesting” trauma, and the little yellow boy was the inner child that needed healing.
That's a beautiful interpretation, makes me cry harder T^T
Well in the description "Kai", is awakened when the man aka the Giant found a flower that reminded him of his childhood.
Kai, she goes through his memories to help the Giant release his emotions instead of keeping it in as seen at the end.

You portrayed the feeling of childhood memories together with the feeling of loss so beautifully
This hit too hard for me I'm LITERALLY CRYING RN.
The reason though is actually because there was a kid named Mia who wanted to become my friend in the 1st grade. We ended up always hanging out together with some of my other few friends. But, our friendship lasted only 3 years until Mia had to leave my school, of course I never found the reason and it was until a week after I was informed she left when I asked the teachers why she had been absent for so long....i cried myself to sleep.
Did she was absent or u just didn't notice her?
Dear Animator,
This is a beautiful and touching creation of yours.
Thank you so, so much for sharing it with us.
I wish you very well.

This is one of the most beautiful and emotionally moving animations I’ve ever seen. I’ve never connected to an animation so much before.
Trully a therapy film for healing broken souls. Great and stunning viusals, perfect sounds and music. Love it
Hiding and pushing down the pain also hides and pushes down the good memories too, to let out the pain you cry, and once you release the pain and you can remember the good times , peace and happiness again
Amazing film, it's beautiful. Reminds me of Yuasa's work, but with your own touch.
LOVE IT!
When I was young, my best friend moved away. Since then, I’ve never really had another friend. This video really resonated with me. I feel like I’ve felt what the character is feeling here.
When I was 10 I went to spend my summer holidays in a small town, my family had rented a house there. In only a day and I had made a friend. He was spending his summer holidays with his family too. Over three weeks all we did was play and made good memories. Eventually he went back home as the holidays were coming to an end and so did I. All i knew was his name and im 24 today, all these years and the only thing i can remember is his name and the feeling of joy i had playing with him from morning till dark.

Thats what you need to make a man cry nothing more powerfully than memories of the childhood of someone that’s the weak point in everyone.
this is like that one person you always played online as a kid and one day they leave.
same energy.
It’s amazing what you guys can show in a few minutes, I’ve fallen in love with so many of these shorts
This shows that the friendships we loose because of unfavourable circumstances could also be a cause of our tears after we have grown up. Some bad things happened in our childhood are very difficult to remove from our minds even after a long time.

I love all the subtle movements that were added with the yellow character. Especially when they were maneuvering through the obstacles of the giant purple character. There was one hop that was just 👌 perfect. Thanks for making this short! It was super fun to watch!
im happy i decided to watch this. mika reminds me of myself, im alway holding down my true emotions when comes to certain topics not allowing myself to cry. even though i tell myself its okay and healthy to. but i dont like seeing others see me in that way
I feel a different kind of butterflies 🦋 in me. This was so bliss, tranquil and pure
I felt this in my core. Thank you for this beautiful art.
What a touching story! This may be one of my new favorites. I also love the way everything moves, watery like tears
This was beautiful! A spot on representation of what it feels like to lose a friend. Incredibly spot on presentation of emotions.
Interesting and stunning visuals as always 😍.
4:24 and a couple disney pixar wall-e
10/10💗💖💓🤧💗I really thought for a second at the end Robin and the guy we’re gonna get married u know? Like when he put those flower into his suit and I was just over here hoping that Robin would’ve came over and been like “ay it’s time for the wedding”💖💗✨💓❤️
It reminds me how every summer I waited for meeting with my best friend (every summer me and grandma went to village where she was born). And feeling that your whole world is turning grey every time my friend go back home (to another village) for a long time.
bro I love short films that make me feel something really deep, and this is one of those short films
I like how he didnt forget. I've had too many people leave, too many names and friends that always part with a promise to keep in touch. It doesnt work. The easiest way to deal with the memories of the good times, and the bad, is to just forget them. I like how he didnt forget.
This is such an interesting concept. Such a beautiful to represent emotion and how it’s perceived and dealt with.
I watched this 3 times in a row. Fantastic work, beautiful and heart wrenching.
Magic!)Beautiful colors and amazing lightness. Thank you!)
C'est dingue, avant les films des Gobelins n'étaient souvent qu'une démonstration technique, mais maintenant, c'est de vrais petits bijoux. Que ce soit graphiquement, ou dans le style d’animation, l'univers, les histoires... C'est superbe, vraiment bravo à l'équipe !!
Absolutely gorgeous, sometimes crying means that you're accepting things, it's okay to cry
This is the most beautiful animation and story I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing it. I had tears in my eyes
Maybe I got the wrong impression but I wonder if Mika had feelings for Robin. I guess it's probably just stylistic choice but the eyelashes make Mika and the little creature Kai inside him look pretty feminine. When Kai goes around experiencing all the memories it looks like he gets flustered at 1:44 and there's lots of crying and joy which I suppose can be even with just the loss of a best friend but it gave me the impression there's something more there.
Oh wait at 2:08 that's the memory of Robin giving him the flower. And they move out just as things seemed to be developing between them.
I had this friend when I was six, we were really close but she didn't come to school for a week. I asked my teacher why she wasn't coming to school and they me told she had moved to the other side of the state. I still miss her sometimes and I was pretty lonely after she left
I absolutely love the style and the story! Great animation🥺💗💗💗💗💗
This was really sweet. I love how really unique and cute the art style is.
French animation style, check Wakfu or Baidir
this is stunning! the style, the sound, it’s so beautiful I replayed it again as soon as it finished 🤩
This short is so good and amazing and beautiful! I love the animation and artistic style of it all.
But my favorite part of it is how the music fits so well with the story and animation!
I need to hear the song by itself!
The pure emotion portrayed by the characters in this were more than enough to get me emotional. I love this with everything inside of me. Amazing work.
Omg thit is pure arts and strong emotions!!! I have not seen a short with such a strong and fluid expression of emotiona for such a long time!!! Bravo!
Your beautiful art style (ex: sometimes mutate the shape to express the feelings)makes me think of a really famous Japanese animator name Yuasa! I think his animation series"Kaiba" would definitely entertain you!
Absolutely wonderful. All of the film is amazing : musics, drawings, colors... Thank you so much for this short ^^
This was absolutely beautiful
SO great ! Feels like a mix between Inside Out and Ponyo.
このアニメーションがとても好きです！！！
紫色の、考えたくない思い出は、入りにくいけれど考えたら抜け出せないような質感が大好きです。
悲しい記憶を愛せるのはとても素敵ですね！💖
