Comment from the video's creator, ShiShi Yamazaki

bcゲーム退会uot;I created this animation based on video clips of me actually dancing around different locations on campus. The splendid ambiance of the Waseda campus, a cultural powerhouse, and the magical enchantment of wearing a sailor-style school uniform gave me the courage to suavely sway around while filming. If I could only have spent my college years here... I would like to dedicate this video to all viewers with such warm, fuzzy feelings.bcゲーム退会uot;
