Shii's Song
Shii's Song (しぃのうた, Shii no Uta) is a Flash animation that was first uploaded to 2channel's /swf/ on March 2, 2002.1) While this animation originally did not credit the author, it has since been attributed to “Takehara Minoru” (たけはらみのる) who would later make Natsumi Step.
Summary
The animation features a love story between Shii and Giko, set to the pitch-shifted English dub of Wind's Nocturne (風のノクターン) from Lunar: Silver Star Story and contains English subtitles. However, Shii would discover that Giko had fallen in love with Tsuu instead, then we're left with a vacated box for sale under a snowy day as the animation's credits roll.
Notes
- The original “Wind's Nocturne” was sung by Luna's voice actress Kyōko Hikami, in Japanese, but Shii's Song uses the English dub by Royce's voice actress Jennifer Stigile.
- Since the song is copyrighted, the animation and its associated files would often get taken down, presumably through DMCA threats which reportedly come from JASRAC.
- With its international spread, the original anonymous credit for Shii's Song was changed, causing the animation to be misattributed to “brandy199” on Albino Blacksheep2) or “Longcat” instead.
- In the newer version, you can click and swipe your mouse over the flowers and cicada around Shii.
