Doom Crush!!

Two idols break free from suffocating expectations in a rather…creative way.

“ DOOM CRUSH!! is a 2:15 minute-long mixed-media animated music video exploring unhealthy parasocial bonds in virtual fandom spaces, as well as the struggles and the pent-up rage that can come with being an artist and putting your work out in the world. We wanted to shed a light into these fandom spaces, especially ones involving “idols” that hold real people to unrealistic standards, hence the music video follows Emi and Rina, two young idols breaking free from these restrictions with a physical fight which is meant to be a metaphor for a more internal struggle.”
