Nicely animated and explained. The man walking forward and singing works very well as a visual explanation. And the little animated jokes are delightfully paced. No one (in video or in print) has yet analyzed how these canons work in detail, so I'll be doing that on my channel. As you point out, the standard i - iv - v - i harmonic progression does NOT reverse in classical harmony, so how did he do it? And this is the simplest of the canons! What blows my mind is when you listen to the piece you hear a musically coherent composition, not all the thought that went into it.
