Video: Nonsense animations by Shintaro Kago

12 Mar 2009

Marvelously deranged manga artist Shintaro Kago has set up a YouTube channel and started uploading bizarre animated shorts. Among them are his “Terror of golf course,” which shows a golfer’s unfortunate encounter with a peculiar hole on the putting green…

…and the equally absurd “Mermaid,” which portrays a sea maiden with a surprise in her chest.

More at Kago’s YouTube channel and website.

    That’s a good idea for the mermaid. What a great sea predator! Lucky evolution.

    I agree, the concept is pretty nice, but the drawing and animation….my god, the ugliest thing I’ve seen in a while

    Even though I love this I have to note that Terry Gilliam did this a lot earlier and a lot better
