The Trouble with Living with AMV

Postby LittleKefalos » Tue Feb 18, 2003 6:33 pm

I just thought I'd write this on a whim, but in some ways its true.

I enjoy watching anime and anime music videos, but maybe too much, because then what occurs is this.

--I watch so many anime videos and my favorites again and again, and thus do not see normal anime, this is bad.

--I become fearful of downloading videos, why, not because I will find a mediocre (spelling?) video that makes me feel like I wasted time downloading it, but rather that I will find a great video that I will have to add to my collection (which only grows) and thus force me to watch these even more, making me waste more time.

--The biggest problem is, the more I see anime, the more I realize just how good so much of it is, how is this possible? Will it always be this way? I will never be able to see every good anime ever, because I am mortal and because I only have so much time and because I lack knowledge (like we all do), timing is also important, you have to see an anime when you're ready for it.

--Life is short, what am I to do.

--In case you didn't know this is a post which means little, however any suggestion to solve the problem of AMV Internal Battle Syndrome (as I have dubbed it) are greatly appreciated.

:)

If you flame this, I'll be tempted to call you an idiot, unless you make me smile. :roll:

By the way, this may not be considered part of General AMV, but it is General AMV, because I can't be any more general, and at the same time be relating to AMV problems. I haven't seen a similar post, but I haven't checked them all.

I guess I just want to create a new post thread, before going to bed. Can you blame me. It may never happen again.

I sort of get that... My AMV list that I watch is over 100.. forgot the total but I think it's something around the 150-200 area... like atm, I'm watching a ranma 1/2 AMV...

But I still watch anime.. lot's of it... I have a total of about 5 series and 4 movies on my computer, which I also have in my playlists.. (too lazy to put them in my dvd player and change disks..)

Pacing and goals. another good thing, have a life outside of amv's. physical activity is a plus. after an physical adrenaline pumping activity, watch a few amv's, they will certainly appear differently, mostly because of the adrenaline. quite a rush if you watch action amvs too.

Just give in to it.

Raid your personal hygiene budget for CD-R money.

Give in to the amv otaku side... :twisted:

I still have space on my hard-drive, I don't have that many videos yet (only about 50-80, ok maybe that is a lot), I haven't downloaded videos for a while, haven't had the time. Actually I usually do things in spurts, thus one week may be nothing with anime, while next may have a lot.

Where do you go to only see which videos were made this year?
