I just stumbled upon a link to this; it looks very interesting; a surreal pastiche of horror, psychdelic, traditional Japanese, Art Noveau, and Gustav Klimt (wait, is that redundant?). On looking it up a bit, it looks like it just aired in Japan this past summer, and is a spin-off of another series (Ayakashi or Samuai Horror Tales in English). However, that one aired last year and is already out at Netflix, so maybe there's hope it won't be too long. Looks like one I could just watch for the prettiness, nevermind subtitles. Certainly this video is pretty addictive...parts of it remind me of Heavy Metal...
Oh, and at minute 3:20? Someone actually walking normally, not that legs-only-move-to-the-vertical that irritates me so much... Yes, I'm nuts...
Meet the Medicine Seller...[video]
Oh well, That's me, hyponotized by any brightly colored moving objects...
(Note - this may be animation, but contrary to most American beliefs, definitely not for children - however, nothing overtly graphic in the video)
Edit: Apologies - the original video has been removed but here are a couple of others.... These are AMVs, or music videos.
I would buy this series just for all the fish imagery...

Warning, this one contains blood, but in a totally unrealistic manner. I love the music used for it.
