Bloody Valentine

This forum is for the sharing of AMV ideas and for help finding clips in anime to use in AMVs.

Bloody Valentine

Postby SQ » Sat Feb 15, 2003 2:53 pm

OK, here's how it goes:

A firend of me "choses me" to make a birthday present for her friend using Good Charlotte's "Bloody Valentine" She says I can do whatever I want but must keep the song. She then suggested that I use the Utena movie.

Well, I hate to say this. No, I thought I'd NEVER say this.


I am running a blank on ideas >_<

I don't want to just wing it, so here's what I got, and I want you all to help me to see which anime's the best go-fer.
These are just anime, when the best anime's "picked" it's pretty much just follow the lyrics from there.

Ayashi No Ceres
Utena the movie
Nightwalker
XTV
Angel Santuary
Gundam X


And then there's the option of having them all compiled together. :?

Please help me. >_<

Hmm, how about try to use Gundam Seed instead? :) There's a war event that opens up the series that is called "The Bloody Valentine tragedy." Movies somtimes are hard to use for AMVs, because they're a great deal shorter than series for sure. But it's kind of hard to determine what anime to use without lyrics or something.

:? I do not own Gundam Seed nor have I seen it or know the general storyline. >_<

Anyway, here's the lyrics:

Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life


I ripped out
His throat
And called you on the telephone
To take off
My disguise
Just in time to hear you cry when you...


You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time


Singin'...


Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight


There was
Police and
Flashing lights
The rain came down so hard that night and the
Headlines read
A lover died
No tell-tale heart was left to find when you...


You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
The night he died
You mourn the death of your bloody valentine
One last time


Singin'...


Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight


Tonight


He dropped you off, I followed him home
Then I, I stood outside his bedroom window
Standing over him, he begged me not to do
What I knew I had to do cause I'm so in love with you


Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Tonight

I have some other anime that seem to work well since the song seems to be about a guy who murders guys that like "his girl" because he loves her so much...
Gundam Wing
Endless Waltz


The song is pretty rock-y and a tiny bit of techno at the very end. It has all those nice big drum beats that'd be perfect for an all out action video, but I still don't have any ideas, And now, reading the lyrics, I have one thing to say to myself.

"I'm screwed."

Anyone else have any ideas for this song???

Curse my replies to my own posts. I'm in "Way off Topic world's longest thread" mode.

I've got some slim sliver of a possible idea. Utena and Kenshin action-y romance-y type thing?

Good or no?

>_< So screwed, am I... SO screwed. . .

After looking at the lyrics and what you said about the song being about a guy killing guys who are after his girl. I still think Gundam Seed is a very appropriate anime, but since you don't have access to it I think from off your list Nightwalker would be a great one to use too. And as a bonus Nightwalker has 0 AMVs for it in the database. Zero, nada.... absolutely noooothing. :D Plus there are some scenes from Nightwalker that could work very well with this song.

*spoiler*

In episode 6, Cain tries to kill Riho, so you could play off that whole Shido killing Cain to rescue Riho bit. Plus that bloody kiss scene at the end definately needs to be put into an AMV.

(Urge to make Nightwalker AMV rising rising rising... ) :D

Ayashi Ceres also has some nice scenes I remember, I can see where you're going with some of these scene selections by the words. There's nothing wrong with making a multi-part anime if the scenes match the lyrics and the music. If it matches so well it's eerie, by all means use it! :)

Never thought Nightwalker would work out so well. 0_o But anyway, Nightwalker DOES have some AMVs in the database. I've used it before. In fact, I'd rather not use it again. That series is somehow very hard to contain within an AMV 0.o


Ah, I also borrowed some more DVDs from a friend. I know have

All but the last four episodes of Gensomaden Saiyuki(If anyone has the english title for that, let me know... Please)

And the complete series of Gate Keppers.

... But I REALLY don't want to use Gate Keepeers. It's like the Japanese equilvelent of Power Rangers. (The Horror!) >_<


Hmm. I guess I'm going to have to rewatch NightWalker. . . I never even guessed of actually USING it. . .

KLin, You're a really pal!
