Spoiler :
6 - Not badly edited. The song's lack of variation led to a somewhat monotonous video, though.
15 - Good pairing, very well executed. Fun
18 - Not bad overall, but a bit slow paced, and needed clearer storytelling in the second half.
33 - Many problematic cross fades and overly static scenes. Good scene selection & pairing. I hope that it gets polished for a final version.
34 - Interesting pairing, but didn't work for me.
41 - I like it overall, but there's either an element to the concept that i didn't get or it should have had a stronger concept.
42 - meh
43 - it's a cute video covered by an eye-bleed effect. the effect seriously makes the video nearly un-watchable.
48 - seen better bots
51 - AR problem unignorable.
56 - lots of technical problems throughout. introduction of non 80s elements was off-putting. energy & pacing were good though.
62 - it's not badly edited, but the audience doesn't get the chance to bond to a single character in the entire first minute which makes it hard to get into the video.
64 - there's a lot that's good about this video, but it could definitely use another round of refinement. the audio cuts and the mask at the end are especially attention grabbing.
66 - i don't feel like this pairing couldn't work, but it didn't quite here.
69 - there's a lot of good scene selection but problems with the handling of the dialog made this unconvincing for me.
70 - i don't get it
71 - i don't get it
72 - weak beginning w/ lipflap, but once the pace picks up it comes together as a fun, upbeat video.
73 - awkward speed ups & other tech issues. decent storytelling/pairing
84 - It mostly works, but it feels pretty forced.
85 - various anime should only be used if there is a purposeful concept behind it. this isn't badly executed, but it feels souless and generic.
86 - this seems like it would appeal to fans of the show, but it's hard to connect to unknown characters through a montage-y video.
88 - that was pretty entertaining. lip sync could be better, but it's mostly in scenes dynamic enough not to be too noticeable.
89 - see 85
91 - it's a good pairing and it's well executed.
95 - i like the concept, the execution could use work though. a lot of awkward cuts and day/night/day scene selections.
98 - again, better in concept than execution. would have been better with one less round of the melody.
99 - has its issues, but i like the pairing and thought it was cute overall.
101 - this is just one of those videos that i appreciate more for the work that went into it than the end product.
105 - another interesting pairing that didn't quite work. song is gorgeous though.
107 - dated style, but it works with the song, and it video *is* pretty fun.
108 - the song does almost all the work in the story telling, which is problematic because it's really hard to understand what they're saying. it's also just too long.
109 - decent. the second half is better than the first, which needed stronger scene selection.
110 - this looks like the work of a relatively new editor. the character profiling is good and the combo works, but the editing isn't dynamic enough.
111 - interesting and trippy. editing is very slow early (and doesn't feel entirely controlled) action has some good sync, but doesn't feel purposeful enough either
112 - cute. the effects (especially with non native assets) are a bit rough, but the concept is well executed.
113 - that was certainly literal.
114 - this is actually kinda charming. it could have been a bit faster paced and had more camera movement, but cute concept and good scene selection make it work.
115 - witty and well executed.
116 - well no one can say it overstayed its welcome.
118 - decent. i wish there were more of the fake ads (like the ray-ban) and none of those weird discrete zoom-sync things. hats were good, too.
119 - i don't know how to feel about that.
120 - can't be easy lyric syncing with such linear editing. the execution is generally good, but with the linear editing (and popular movie) the only surprising thing was the ending.
121 - needs work. too many static clips left on for too long, not a distinct enough concept.
122 - it was fun.
123 - So few of the Zapp scenes work well, possibly because the voice doesn't suit him. It's not really bad, just not good either.
124 - great video, but sheesh, fall out boy.
125 - I really like this one. Some of the early transitions were kinda wooden, but it's a fun video with a good pairing.
126 - this was a really good use of madoka. moody and smoothly edited.
127 - not to my taste, but well edited.
128 - can't follow the logic of most of the scene selection here.
129 - k
130 - good pairing & storytelling. pace is sometimes slow.
131 - very pretty
132 - on point as a parody, average as a comedy.
133 - the editing is decent, but the audio & visual quality are inexplicably low.
134 - scene selection is mostly good but there are a lot of tech issues, including low visual quality throughout.
135 - good. pairing is good. the partitioned screen effects are often clumsy though.
136 - not the way to combine various sources. these anime just don't fit together into a coherent world for the audio.
167 - terrible visual quality and poor attention to cuts.
142 - well edited upbeat video. godawful song.
15 - Good pairing, very well executed. Fun

Feels.
Don’t put silly intros on super-serious subject matter. This is Les Mis! Madoka has lots of dark, depressing, scary imagery and themes, but hardly any of that came through in this AMV. Was it trying to be funny? I can’t tell.
