from the 59th second there are some red squears which don't fit in by mine opinion
They don't catch sounds or anything
from 2:18-2:25 there are some circles which don't catch sounds rythm or anything
The lip sync at the same place can be a lot better
And there are to meny fade to blacks

OK, first things first. Low resolution. You can do better than that. Low resolution makes Lodoss look worse than it does to begin with.

The red squares are just odd. The rings around 2:00 got old really fast, and the strobing around 3:40 is annoying. Technically well edited, but the strobe-into-submission attack gets old after a few seconds. Par for the course.

The fades we well used, but you could have stood to mix it up a bit.

You handled the death of Ashram nicely, Pirotess was a nice touch. The stop-motion technique looks familiar, but you used it well.

I'm still working on if there's a story here, or just a series of independant battles. Either way, though, a video being 1/8th bumper is just a bit much.

Oh, and IRC is still better than AIM for a variety of technical and philosophical reasons.

good loddoss vid.
I found this different from your usual style
don't really undertand the meaning of the ring, and there's maybe too much fades, but the shine is pretty well used.
especially liked the intro & outro!

Well most things I have to say were already mentioned by Kalium, but oh well. The first thing is the the fact that the videoquality was just bad. I don't know why your newer videos lack video quality you already made some videos that had really good quality but I guess it sometimes depends on the sources as well than just on the encoding and filtering. But there's so much macro-blocking in this amv that it's really a pain for the eyes. And another big issue are those ugly borders.

Refering to the Editing most things are quite enjoyable, like some already wrote the red squares and the rings were not really nice to watch but in other places there were some really awsome effects which are especially effective for the scenes you used them on for example 4:32 - 4:35 (I guess shine is the most beautyful effect ever) or 1:59 - 2:02. Actually I was a bit disappointed you didn't use as much effects as usual, ok I have to admit a FX-Overkill amv wouldn't fit to the anime but I'd like to see that since I've always loved your trippy style. Timing overall was ok but I noticed some cuts seemed to be slightly off. All in all a nice video, I think I'll keep it for a time untill the music gets on my nevers since I don'T like Nightwish at all.

OMG A NEW REQUIETT VIDEO!!!

/me downloads and will watch after work

I was thinking about something Nightwish to Lodoss OVA, but nothing ever clicked. You sir, are a good editor.

and Kalium: don't get him started on that again, PLEASE.

Yeah, Kal. That's what happens when you're as good as me. People expect top notch quality with every vid.

Last time I obnoxiously poked my nose into IRC (BRSRK THOUGHT I WASN'T ME FOR A GOOD 15 MINUTES), I was told "Requiett" got banned for calling everyone noobs and being a general nuisance. Aquasky's like the only one who's even been paying any real attention to that room (I can't understand why. It sucks to high hell in there.)

No. The reason I was banned was because I called ONE person a "gap-toothed trailer-park trodding cousin-fucker," upon which I was TEMP-banned. I KNOWINGLY broke my ban not once, not twice, but upwards of 15 times. This got me permanently banned, because I hated IRC to begin with. Every time I went into that room, I PREACHED constantly about how horrible IRC was.

A.D. agrees with some of my points, but refuses to leave IRC's wing for "lack of a better alternative." OH WELL.

Anyway... smart-ass criticism aside, thanks for the cool comments on this LAZILY edited video.
