Hi everyone - no April Fool’s joke, we just released our latest toco toco episode, showcasing the animator unit AC-bu, formed by Toru Adachi and Shunsuke Itakura.

With works spanning over music videos, commercials, TV segments, all the way to over-the-top flip book animations, AC-bu brings an eccentric touch in order to provide an unexpected, “strange” feeling to its audiences. We enjoyed spending time with the pair and the contrast between their calm personality and the psychedelic aspect of their works, full of creative freedom and away from classic animation standards.

We hope you’ll enjoy the episode and thank you for your support!

Their work spans over psychedelic music videos, commercials and animations that all share the unit’s concept of providing an unexpected, strange feeling to its audience. The pair will take us to a Royal Host in the Yoga Area, which served as a location in one of their segments for Bobunemimimi, derived for the manga Pop Team Epic and one of the unit’s most acclaimed works. They will tell us how they incorporate locations into their work as we follow them to the Futako-Tamagawa river banks, which appeared in the animated music video they produced for the band group_inou for their song HEART. The unit will explain the philosophy behind their unique work, far from the traditional concepts of animation. - AC-bu on Twitter: https://twitter.com/acbu_official
