Very nice, but not my kind of animation, seems quite jarring in places when you see its clearly been based off a human performance - I won't say rotoscoped, but they definitely had real people dance this out and the animators based it off that. Then you have the anime-like movements like the hair which are flipping all over the place.

That and the background seems to flowing at a much different framerate than what seems to be going on. Impressive but flawed.
