Last month, we mentioned that the NHK television network was airing a collection of 15 anime shorts by Japan's notable anime creators, aptly called Ani-Kuri 15. The reason then was that the third season also includes a new animation by Makoto Shinkai - which we're still curious about. For now, though, NHK posted the first two seasons online (thanks ANN), revealing a very diverse collection of one-minute animations. Some of them look better, some sound better, while others have nothing but an interesting idea modestly sketched out. Either way, they're well worth ten minutes of your fapping time, so go watch them here.

If you still need an incentive, how about some shots from two of the better looking shorts: Project Mermaid, and Gyrosopter.
