Awate Tokoya (1966)

Finished

あわて床屋

A music video was created for the song "Awate Tokoya" by the Japanese vocal group Bonny Jacks, produced specifically for the NHK television program Minna no Uta. The short film presents a visual interpretation of the song's lively and humorous lyrics, which tell the story of a chaotic barbershop experience. The animation likely depicts a frantic barber rushing through a series of comedic mishaps while attending to a customer, all set to the upbeat folk-inspired melody of the track.

The video was broadcast as part of the long-running Minna no Uta series, which has featured numerous animated music videos since its debut in 1961. However, this particular segment is now considered lost media, as no known copies of the original broadcast have survived. Its disappearance has made it a subject of interest among media preservationists and anime historians, who continue to search for any surviving footage or documentation of this early example of Japanese animated music video production.
