What do you get when you mix Ado's incredible voice, Megumi Ishitani's flawless directing skills, and the stunning character acting sakuga animation of Masami Mori? You get a Masterpiece like this music video. Unlike the MVs for the other 6 One Piece: Film Red insert songs, this video presents an entirely unique set of characters and a very original art style, which is used to great advantage by Mori, whose character animation often prioritizes the weight and depth of it's subjects. His highly recognisable style, which is praised highly by many in the sakuga community, is heavily prominent in this video, giving the characters an incrediblynatural flow and realism to their movements. What's more, Mori's storyboards for this video are incredible, and assist in cinematically presenting a great amount of emotion and beauty in just over 4 minutes.

Megumi Ishitani is best known nowadays for her work, directing One Piece episodes 957, 982 and 1015 (regarded as some of the best episodes in the series). Her incredible directorial abilities are on full display in this video, and many interesting choices are made to give the video a special photographic tone. These decisions, with great credit to Nagisa Nishida, include the unique aspect ratio and color palette. All in all, the visuals of this video are remarkable.

Much can be said about Ado's performance of "Where the Wind Blows," and it's easy to praise the lyrics, pacing, instrumentals, and especially Ado's own phenomenal singing voice. If you haven't watched and listened to this music video and song, do yourself a favor and do it. now. it's available right on youtube, and it's nothing less than a masterpiece.
