Very nice - influence from North x Northwest perhaps?

I think my main comment would be, and it goes for a lot of anim-shorts, that the main character is a simplified humanoid thing. I can’t remember who said it - maybe Terry Pratchett or someone like that - but it was along the lines of: “We don’t have to use physical actors. We are not constrained by gravity or safety. Any inanimate object can be brought to life. Why choose something that closely resembles a human?”

I am not saying every character should be an animated Biro or anything like that - just foof for thought.
