Song For Dead Time - Swans (Midori Tribute)

Tribute to the movie "Midori" (地下幻燈劇画 少女椿 Chika Gentou Gekiga Shōjo Tsubaki) by Hiroshi Harada, based on the manga "Mr Arashi's Amazing Freak Show" (Shōjo Tsubaki) by Suehiro Maruo, set to the song "Song For Dead Time" by The Swans. Suehiro Maruo is probably one of the best mangakas ever and Hiroshi Harada did a great adaptation, I really recommend you buy the manga and watch the movie if you can find it.

The movie is relatively faithfull to the manga's story, it follows a 12 year old girl called Midori, who after her mother's death goes of to join a circus owned by a certain Mr Arashi where she is abused and humiliated until a dwarf-magician, Masamitsu The Magnificent joins the circus.

is this a movie? ive been googling it and im a little confused as to what it is..?

also, is it good?

Um originally it's a manga by Suehiro Maruo, and was made into a movie by Hiroshi Harada in 1992. The movie is pretty good but hard to find. I believe wiki has quite a bit of info on both the movie and manga, you should check it out. For the manga i'm not sure where you can find it, I got my copy thru a french publisher, "Lezard Noir", manga's are a lot easier to find in France then in most Anglo-Saxon countries from what I gathered.

i like Swans, i like Midori, i like this vid. good job

[Encefataliste]

Thanks, i really wanted to do a video for this song but couldn't find the right movie, I can't believe it took me so long to think of Midori, they synch really well together, took me less then 30min to do this!

The song is great!!!

It really fits to the bizzar and dark,but still romantic as hell drawingstyle from sensei Maruo!Thank you for this so much!

Maruo takes manga to a new level with every story he brings out.

It`s sad that most people rather read stuff like Naruto,but at the same time it`s cool,because it gives me a feeling,like it`s only made for me:)

I have a serious problem with Maruo. I don't like his stories but I ADORE his artwork -.-'

Nice video and song btw

This movie is so messed up, it's like a nightmare of sorts

But in that sense, it's amazing :)
