I don't know what the lyrics are so I can't really connect them to the scenes. The vibe it was giving off fit well to the music though. Maybe post a translation or sumthin.
4/5

I didn't lyric sync because I don't speak the language. At most, I just kinda made sure I wasn't going against the overall mood/theme of the lyrics. I have a translation, but it's a bit questionable. Probably entirely accurate in the general tone of things but I wouldn't trust that a line means exactly what I say it does. Besides, like I said, the lyrics aren't exactly important anyway. If you want though, here's the rough translation:

It burns like the strike of a whip
All here, and yet unreachable
A reflection in the glass,
A fire on the other side of the river

And if you want, walk on the water
Or become someone else, but
He whispers: "My holy God, teach me
The name of my sorrow"

Between you and me
My each and every word
About how slow the snow is,
About how high the sky

My God, if it's not in your power
To release me, from the cage of this blood
Teach me
The name of my sorrow

You're too far away
From me
Too far away
From me
Like air from the fire
Water from the wave
Heart from the blood
And now I'm falling down
Already just two steps from the ground
My God, look...

You forgave me everything
And I know you are true
But your inextinguishable light
Burns out after touching my hand

My God, if I return
Then I will return pure
All else is up to me, just teach me
The name of my sorrow

It was an interesting thing with masking and some scene choices though it's still shinkai and wasn't much of my thing because of this weird song D:

I think it is a good video and I'm happy that the reason why he turns this way got obvious at the end. It was the thing that I missed in the middle. I would like to see this happen in the middle and see the cure in the end instead. What I really missed was something that seperates past memories from present moments. Just a tad of colour schema or black and white and it would have been more easily to follow the concept with the past memories of the character.

All in all I like it.

Past memories had a glow effect added... it's really light cause if it was actually noticeable, it would have already been too intrusive.

Thanks for telling. Mhm glow effects make sense. I mean the present features the dark and depressive moments. It's silly, because I never thought about it: Why are flashbacks always black and white or have a similar dark colour schema?

However I would have prefered a more noticeable contrast between present and past.
