A good dramatic Kenshin vid with an Opeth song. There are definitely not enough of these, great job!

One of the few videos worth watching lately.

A shame it was not deemed worthy among the crap in the competitions.

Heh.

Well you gotta admit, this video was aimed and executed in a way that appealed to the "way they used to be" crowd. You've done a good job capturing the feel of the song and keeping up an atmosphere, which is something that's often neglected in drama videos of this type. Enjoyed this thoroughly.

That said, I would've probably done this video differently if I was editing it myself - not to say that the result is wrong or anything, but I think it could've benefited from going beyond the old-school cuts and fades, which also (incidentally - I don't mean on purpose) would've made it more interesting to the more technically-jaded con audiences these days. Instead it did its thing in a low-key, conservative (but honest) way which does somewhat justify the muted response it's got (unfortunately).
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Glad to see a video with good music for once. Nice and simple video, not much more to say.
