SPOILERS
Much like some of the other stories in The Animatrix, Beyond was flat and meaningless due to the fact the animation just couldn't come up to par with the story. The story is this: a young woman wanders into a building where the law of physics are tainted, providing entertainment to the local kids and a sense of discovery for everyone involved. The downside, as is with a lot of Japanese animation, was the animation itself. Too many bright colors, too many offsetting facial stylings to really create a consistent brand of humanistic drawing. This particular short was at times a bit silly, but the idea was there. Unfortunately, no one really knew how to draw off it.
