8 Bit GIFs Japan - Washing Reflection

These simple and charming GIFs (I’ve never described a GIF as charming before, but I think you’ll agree with me) are created by Yoyoi Yuuta (Tumblr pseudonym 1041uuu).

There’s something relaxing but slightly plaintive about them. Maybe it’s the fact that I was brought up playing on the ZX Spectrum, maybe it’s just that I have a really simple brain, but I love these.

Take a look:
