Go-hiki no Kaeru
五匹のかえる
A music video accompanies the song "Go-hiki no Kaeru" by Fusako Amachi and Bonny Jacks, originally broadcast on NHK's Minna no Uta program. The short features animated frogs in a lively musical sequence, bringing the playful children's song to life through simple yet charming visuals typical of the era. The animation was produced by NHK and aired as part of a series of musical segments that introduced songs to young audiences.
However, this piece of Japanese animation is now considered lost media, with no known surviving copies available for viewing. Over time, the original broadcast materials have been lost or destroyed, leaving only memories and references in historical records. Despite efforts by archivists and fans, the exact content and full extent of the animation remain unknown, making it a rare and elusive artifact of early Japanese television animation.
