Oh and to those who've been leaving me those "I CoUlDnT sEe ThE VAHDEEO jus teh AUDIO!!!!1111", please get the xvid and please dont try to "teach me" how to "encode properly" through a QC.

LOL!!! I thought you'd like that! But you didn't hunt me down like you said in your video description page .

[JCD]

Awesome, now I won't be accused anymore for my videos being a sheer overload

Seriously, this feels exactly just like Sugardansen. That means I did enjoy it quite alot and also thought that the beginning was quite bad While the Haruhi and Lucky Star dances felt quite fresh in there, I'm still tired of seeing them, which propably drags the review value for me quite a bit down.

Anyway, I bow down to your effort on this. It propably just has to grow on me a bit more.

[Ishbalan]

Wow.
*orgasms*
This is exactly what I wanted after getting off work.
*watches it again*
I think I still like Sugardansen better though.

Pish posh Sugardansen is pure mush in comparison.
Glad you liked it <3

I can clearly see that this one required far more hours to make, but I still like Sugardansen for its song and large variety of anime.
Regardless, you own the top two slots of my "Favorite AMVs" list.

[Megamom]

Cool...Without words



5/5 %....

[Emong]

Insane colours x.x

I liked that. Technically very impressive though the concept was rather mainstream comedy that I don't dig.. Not as cool or as fun as Sugardansen but deffinitely enjoyable. I just wish the screen wasn't so shit loads full of stuff O.o

Still, it's a 4 star job

Technically 5/5 though =P

[taifunbrowser]

Good job?

[Ghet]

[Koopiskeva]

Good times

Ive been getting a lot of "this is a blatant rip-off of skittles" kind of comments. Id just like to point out that when i started this video project, i had absolutely no intention of "copying" skittles. I had this concept in mind quite some time before skittles was released and i intended on incorporating BRIGHT SHINY COLOURZ in one way or another, and the only similarities i can find between the two are the fact its Haruhi + BRIGHT SHINY COLOURZ! The concepts are quite different as well. Skittles is a parody of a real life music video, and Otaku is a crazy fast paced happy hardcore seizure inducing romance-esque video. The sweet and sour skittles was NOT a reference to Koop's vid, it was simply to sync up to the "so sweet and sour" lyric. Im quite sure had the video've not had any color effects whatsoever, people wouldnt be comparing the two, but the song really, really called for it.

Concept-wise, yea its different, but the atmosphere and effects-usage are where most people are finding the similarities... I know you didn't mean to 'copy' anything, but that's just how it is. Yes, its a hyper-sugary upbeat video, as opposed to Skittles' slower-paced upbeat music video parody, but the effect usage is very similar therefore giving it a similar atmosphere. Aside from the usage of haruhi, and bright colors - there's also the lip syncing, text effects and its overall fun/upbeat theme - which make the videos appear even closer together. Not to say that this a 'blatant rip-off' of skittles or any other video - just don't try to take em too seriously.

That was fun watching. Even though the song was not of my liking at all, but the masking and fx were pretty impressive overall. I can see the effort you put into this video, so great job. Keep it up. 4.5/5
