What anime goes with tool?

Postby ChaosMan » Sat Oct 19, 2002 11:59 pm

Okay, not just any tool song. This vid is meant to be a kind of gift to a special girl who really likes Aenima by tool. Can someone suggest a non-Eva anime to put to this song?
Nothing against Eva :wink: , I just want to be at least a little more original than using asuka's last stand, you know. Suggestions involving specific scenes would be the most apreciated :lol:

Hoo. I actually did a video to Tool's AEnema. My second vid, so it's not very polished, but I went for something a lot different than the standard action-treatment. (It's on Waldo's....wherever that is right now...) I still consider it my best work in concept, although it's got tech flaws all over the place.

Anyway, I used X (the prophetic dream scenes near the very beginning), Angel's Egg (WONDERFUL film, but way too "arty" for most anime fans), "Memories" (a few scenes from "Cannon Fodder", but most from "Magnetic Rose," especially where the child falls off the roof through the guy's arms), "Akira" (The scenes where the politician is having a heart attack and the revolutionary is staggering around having been gut-shot.), Ghost in the Shell (for some of the more spooky segments), and bits and pieces from Black Jack, Darkside Blues, Neo-Tokyo (hunt this down, it's got some really trippy pieces called "labryinth" that's sorta an "Alice in Wonderland on bad acid" aspect that are great for vids), Armitage III, Genocyber, and an intro bit from Blue Velvet.

Basically, I structured it so that it was surprisingly little action for all but the very end, just really DARK scenes matching all the lyrics. Your mileage may vary. Just a suggestion.

Thanx for the insight. Luckily, I don't have and of the anime you listed so I can't possibly copy you. I'm gonna try and find your vid asap for inspiration. :P

sorry, MJ, but out of the 18+ gigs of AMV's I have, 6% of them are eva and of those, 85% have asuka's last stand and 68% of those have nothing but that scene :shock:
As for the anime she likes: Vampire princess miyu, Vampire hunter d (bloodlust in particular) and hellsing. (see a theme here?) She also like some of the more mainstream ones (yes, i know those are mainstream too) like slayers, trigun and bebop. Latly, we've been watching Bastard.
Thnx guys.

Good anime for Tool

Postby SS5_Majin_Bebi » Tue Oct 29, 2002 9:58 pm

well Dragonball Z/GT and Neon Genesis Evangelion spring to mind when i think of Tool as a song base for AMV's. Really anything that has kickass action mixed with slow plot elements. :twisted:

Isn't that song about LA falling into the ocean? So, anything with a city being destroyed works well. Eva :P Akira, X, if theres one with a city destroyed by a flood would be perfect, flush it away.

ChaosMan, why not use clips from various animes; including some from NGE.
Also if she mainly likes dark, horror animes, try a few newer animes as well as some older ones from that type of genre. Such as:
-both Vampire D movies
-Hellsing
-Vampire Wars
-X
-Angel Sanctuary
-3x3 Eyes
-Blood: The Last Vampire
-Devilman
-Demon City Shinjuku

You could also try other animes of a dark nature like:
-Serial Experiment Lain
-Ghost in the Shell
-Spirrgan
-Akira

Maybe you could put a twist in the vid, however it might not work with the theme you are trying to protray throughout your AMV or the sound of the track you have chossen to use in it. Anyway good luck with your vid.

thanx for all your help guys, but in the end, it seems that she's taken an interest in what i do and wants to work on one with me. anime of choice: Vampire Princess Miyu. Now, for the sake of not making another thread, any song suggestions.

btw, Phade, if you're there ^_^ is there a way to change a thread's name?
