Mizu no Kotoba I don't know exactly what to make of this one, but it was fun. Three parties in a coffee shop are chatting about odd topics; it's a philosophical/psychological sort of show. It has a red tint to it and CG is employed to move the viewer from table to table. What starts out very slice-of-life has a strange twist at the end. You must see it for yourself; if you don't get your hopes up too high, you should enjoy it. It's hard to imagine "Renting" something nine minutes long, but "Watch" doesn't do it justice. When I first saw this bittorrent described as "Aquatic Language" I feared that the subtitles might not be in English! My favorite line: "And that guy says that there's too much unnecessary light in the world right now, so the words ended up invisible" Last updated Sunday, August 03 2008.
