Kaeru
蛙
A music video accompanies the song "Kaeru" performed by Fusako Amachi and the NHK Tokyo Jidou Gasshoudan, originally broadcast as part of NHK's Minna no Uta program. The short piece uses simple animation and live-action footage to visually interpret the lyrics of the song, which tells a story about a frog. It was created as a musical segment for children's entertainment, typical of the program's format.
Despite its initial broadcast, the original video is now considered lost media. No known copies of the footage have survived, making it a subject of interest among media historians and preservationists. Its disappearance highlights the fragility of early television content, and it remains a curious footnote in anime history.
