SYNOPSIS
Death Billiards is one of the four anime works that each received 38 million yen (about US$480,000) from the “2012 Young Animator Training Project.”

Just like in 2010 and 2011, the animation labor group received 214.5 million yen (US$2.65 million) from the Japanese government’s Agency for Cultural Affairs, and it distributed most of those funds to studios who train young animators on-the-job.

Subject line:
An old and a young man find themselves in a mysterious bar where they have to play a game of billiard. The bet: their lives.

(Source: ANN)

STORY
Death Billiards, also known as Death Pool, introduces an original concept on how life works after death. It opens us to an interesting idea, whether the life of two people can be compared and measured.

Me three! From the screenshot it looks like they really studied a pool player, even the cueball is correct.

i might have to watch it again. lot of philosophical subtext (equal footing thing, predetermined fate vs freewill, etc). i'd say it's worth the watch
