Normally I don't like videos for anime I've not seen but I really enjoyed this. It was sad but I felt somewhat uplifted after watching it, and it had a great feeling throughout.
Highly approved! :D

The quality of this wasn't as clear as AtomX's creation. Apart from that no other big problems. Maybe that you overdid the glow on some scenes, but that's not fatal. So far each of the 3 videos on this awsm movie has its own atmosphere. The idea that she is watching herself falling from the bike was quite original ^^
3.5/5

In my defence I had the RAWs while AtomX's footage came from the dvd, which I do plan to buy when it's relased here, and if it's not I'll buy it online then in 3 months it would be out dub(happen to me with all my inu movies T.T)

I didn't really mess with the glow effect but it seems alittle over the top because of all the light colors and the fact she wearing a white shirt and has light skin. I did try something about that but nothing looked right when I tried.

Anyway thanks for saying the part with the bike was original, that was the 1st part that pop into my head when making this.

glad people seem to like this vid, I'm pretty happy with the result

This was a pretty neat video. However, the flow was sorely lacking - I felt that as soon as the video started feeling smooth, a cut or scene change would destroy it. I think you could have worked a little harder on matching the video with the rhythm of the music.

However, I actually (surprisingly) really really enjoyed the love (or antilove, whichever) story you had going on. And those scenes with the girl looking at herself ride into the train...absolutely brilliant.

So basically, great storytelling and mood-setting, but you need to work heavily on making the video feel properly aligned with the music.

3/5, but really one of the best storytelling AMVs I've seen in the last week or so.

Sky: Well I'm glad that you liked it and the fact that it has romance and you still enjoyed it. However I am alittle dissapionted about you respose to the flow and sync, I like to flow the mood and the timing to the preson singing than the music however I do know what you mean, I even went back and change a few things however the clips are there to tell the story and as you said this vid one of the best storytelling AMV's you've seen in the last week.

You editing level is much higher than mine so of couse you'll notice things I may miss, but I'm happy how it turned out and as long as people enjoy my work I'm happy about it. So that fact you enjoyed it is good enough for me.

Also I love the fact that everyone thinks the bike part is awsome!

Well, if any AMV was going to turn me emo, this would be it. :shock:

Overall, this was really friggin awesome. I would work on some areas, but this was quite "enjoyable" in a totally " I now want to slit my wrists" thing.

Meh. Enough emo metaphors. 8-)

4/5
