This asian gem updates with Opera Dude. I'm sure a lot of you agree with me when I say that this is truly outstanding work. It's pushing the web forward, without caring the slightest bit about bandwith hogging and accessibility issues. Opera Dude is the man!
did i mention sound is one of the basic elements of this site

Classic site! Or "classic" is not the right word, astonishing suits better. I like the animations not to mention about the sound that creates an atmospehere you couln't believe!OG!

Best animation and soundeffects I have seen so far. It's even better than for example www.wmteam.de. Everything seems to fit together in this peace of art!

Amazing. Just amazing... What an experience... not only is it a website it's also like a short interactive film of sorts. The music is superb the animations chrips and well drawn. This has to be the full 5/5.

Ah, finally I can see the site. First impression: Oh no! It's the Langoliers! They're gonna eat me! http://us.imdb.com/Title?0112040 for reference. About the site: Lovely and mysterious, although you can't get a grip who's behind it - which is too often the case with portfolio sites. I always miss the personal approach.

oh lord... i am speechless... to think of all the time he spent to animate them as well as to design and plan every little aspect out... perfect portfolio site...! I give it number one!

Nice preloader. Incredible sound. The handsaw with circular sawdust is genius.

Nice, but.... a little similar to neostream.com

I agree, but I think Tokyoplastic does it a lot better. It's one of the best uses in sound heard in Flash. Very good 3D as well.

nah.. thats no neostream.. ..both revolve around a vector character.. but in my opinion this blows away neostream.. dont get me wrong, neostream is cool, but you know youve come across a good site when you spend more time figuring out how and why they thought of it rather than how they did it..

you who say it's similar to neostream: it's similar because neostream was similar to tokyoplastic v.1. :)

Superficial. Limited content, extremely slow to download and dreadful navigation. How can sites like these "push the web forward" when all this is just more flash-sturbation for you eyes-only? Where is the interaction? People get impressed with technical mambo jumbo and forget all the rest that makes a good portfolio-website.

Ulysses, what do exepct from a site like this? It's purpose is to be emotive, to convey a feeling as much as a visual stimulation... no website is going to reach out and touch you. TP doesn't need to be interactive. It is what it is... sheer brilliance, in a league of its own. It raises the bar for us all and breaks just a tiny bit of new ground... so hard to do that now. Amazing work!

Brilliant. Animation and sound doesnt get slicker than this online. Long load time - but worth the wait.
How can it possibly be compared to neostream.com? sheesh!

Yeah it's nice ,
but as a movie not as a web site , our WEB designer / web master works is all about giving the best result with small files size ,... Loads of good animator illustrator can do the same as this site but they just don't do it cause this not the matter when u make an web site !
It's useless , who will spend hours waiting that pics load to watch a web site with really poor content .
make a dvd with this not a websi

hello i don't agree with Sam, there are many personns who will wait loading to see this site even if the content is poor. Because this kind of webdesign is just ART. a new way of expression. i think this site is amazing. i already return to it. bye

if a 2 meg site is too big for you, throw your machine out the window and take up something else :p long load time could mean crap server?

Okay, people. Stop comparing everything just to find things that are copied. A lot of things don't look fully original, because some familiar elements are used. That you will find everywhere, e.g. music. So start experience what you see en open your mind. Don't refer immediately.
I think this site has a shitload of style in it. Yes, there is little content, but it's quality content. And in my eyes, that's better than quantity!

for me, this site is awesome. These guys are masters in animation and sound design. All the transitions are original and perfectly designed. The drum machine is just f***ing hot. Sam, I don't agree with you. This site is not a content website, it's a portfolio one (and I am sure the tokyoplastic guys can have a lot of new clients with it...). And if it was a DVD, we couldn't see it...because DVDs don't have a mondial diffusion. thumbs up again

The site drew me in at first because of its pure non apologetic style then it occured to me very plainly I would rather be sitting in my garden in the sun watching nature unfold. Pont being this stuff is all very clever but it did not make me feel. Not as in something worth feeling it became cheap by its own standards. What the web need is substance from the balls and less from the "cool" and maybe something might be worth waiting to download big

Four stars at least. I think you all bore me. Small thinkers in big ponds.

Come on, how big is the movie? Did you wait for hours?
Stop complaining about the size because this piece of work isn't a .com website! Alright? Not everything online shuold be compared to a .com project!
Have your mind open and experience this amazing piece of work!

Incredible stuff - true talent, in illustration and animation.

I'm with Sam. Good illos, nicely animated, but with no content to speak of, so what? This is like a long preload anim with no payoff.

love the little touches - the way the guy playing the bass drum oscillates with rhythm. truly odd, inspired stuff as ever from tokyoplastic :D

Kinda inspired by japanese anime as well. Good sound fx, and this guy's got a very strange and creative influence.... 9 / 10

this may be my first post on here, but i have checked every single site posted on here, and you must agree with me in saying, this guy has got some serious skills, a little disturbed, but incredible skills. i have seen tons of online design portfolios and but have yet to have seen anything like this before. a little shallow on content, and a tad bit hard to navigate, but overall... outstanding. it is up there (close) with designchapel status.
