Don't let all the face kicking and axe wielding children distract you from the fact that Kiriko was about to down 36 donuts for dinner.

[yaxation]

The girl running around with the axe accurately represents a Reinhardt during Kiriko's ult 😭

[Justin-koht]

The fact that her mom is the greatest swordsmaster in overwatch universe... The lore is crazy...

[CrackyCreates]

" an imaginary fox spirit "

this is the person that trained a family of dragon god possessed samurai

[LarvaTubaShow]

The one team in Overwatch who's never slacked is the animated short team they are so class its insane.

[Kenobiwan]

Fun fact: kirikos obsession with donut comes from Japanese folklore where people that are possessed by kitsuna would develop a sweet tooth (side note) kirikos kitsuna seems more friendly tho

[axolopi]

“Kanezaka is under my protection” I’ve watched this like 7 times and I still get chills

[ninjareaper]

Whoever makes the animated shorts for Overwatch clearly takes great pride in their work.

[thedofflin]

I like how she immediately breaks all the lights just after her neighbour was done fixing them.

[Azyne]

idc how bad OW2 gets, the cinematics will forever have a place in my heart

[zookeykneetv]

Man I’ll never get tired of their shorts. I’ll rewatch them all multiple times and will know exactly what happens but it still always bring a tear to my eye how beautiful everything is 😭. Wish they’d make a feature film already

[joshp]

When Kiriko activated her ult, the sheer speed at which the child chose violence can not be matched

[masterisle]

That child got power and chose the utmost violence.
I love it

[kaijenson]

I love how pretty much every hero can explain their abilities as something with advanced science fiction technology, and then the Japanese heroes are just straight up magic.

[BloodyBay]

6:23 As much fun as this entire short is, that moment where the little girl goes into Barbarian Rage has to be _absolutely everyone's_ favorite moment, right? 😆

[sgt.squeegee]

Her giggle at the beginning with Mr. Yoshida is just... Ugh, pure bubbly happiness. It's so CUTE!

[ITalk]

God I always love these animated shorts. They need to make an Overwatch movie.

[prizmic]

I don't know if anyone else pointed this out, but the guy without the mask who wants to "call for backup" is the same guy from the "Dragons" short, who attempts to call for backup but instead gets an arrow through his phone. I'm telling you, the animation team really does just go hard.

[goodboyniko]

The mom calling Kiriko "my baby.." made me tear up.
That's what my mom said to me when we made up after months of not talking. I'm 40.
Gonna go to a corner and cry now.

[fluffydragon]

9:09 this part always gets me... All I want is for my family to be proud of me... so I sympathize so much with this
