I’m not supposed to be blogging Doujin Work per se, but today I just acquired the HD version of the ED from DiVX’s Stage 6 video upload and download service and… have been watching it quite alot of times.
Doujin Work’s ED is seemingly nothing fantastic. In fact, it is probably the most spectacularly unspectacular anime ED of all time. Just a few girls hopping and twitching around. However, I found it mesmerising, entrancing, and most importantly, enjoyable.
I’m the type who appreciates a good, high quality anime OP or ED. Kyoto Animation has never failed to make my eyeballs pop out, bleed badly and explode in the past with their killer animation budget. I would go so far as to say I was blown away by every one of their OPs and EDs from Fumoffu to Lucky Star, except AIR’s ED. Never got into that one.
Its the simplicity of the animation and the song that makes Doujin Work’s ED so good. The song is very jumpy and catchy, really good stuff (I’m getting it as soon as it is available online). But its the context of the animation which makes Doujin Work so distinctively Seinen.
I mean, all young males have probably enjoyed looking at girls in gym shorts (unless you are, err… never mind). And looking at girls from the back and wondering what the front is all about is what makes the experience mesmerising.
I’m not saying you need to have feelings for any of the characters in Doujin Work, but the fact is that we (males at least 19) have all experienced this sensation before. Its a combination of nostalgia of my school days (I’m a soldier now), and the fact that most girls in gym shorts wouldn’t actually do anything the Doujin Work girls are doing in this ED that makes it interesting. And irresistible, I might add.
Ok I knew that was random, but a brief intro to my second favourite character from Azumanga Daioh, Kimura-sensei. Don’t worry, I love you as well.

This isn`t killer animation, nor is it really *that* well animated.
If you want to see real good animation, watch Disney. They put Kyoto Animation to shame.
