Post by Kokoro no Hikari » Sun Apr 27, 2008 4:01 pm

Hi everyone :) The con is over and it was awesome! Not only did we have an excellent performance by the J-Pop band unicorn table, but our AMV contest was stronger than ever. A total of 35 videos were entered and the votes were ridiculously close in all categories. Here are the winners:

Action: Yoko Seishirou - Samurai Limericks (Anime: Samurai Champloo, Song: Beastie Boys - Limerick)

Comedy/Parody: Jesmaster - YTMND (Anime: Various, Song: YTMND audio)

Drama: Flame-X - MOON PHASE (Anime: Utawarerumono, Song: Suara - MOON PHASE)

Dance/Upbeat: MeliChan923 - Ouran High School Never Ends (Anime: Ouran High School Host Club, Song: Bowling for Soup - High School Never Ends)

Romance: BurningLeaves - Eternal (Anime: Romeo X Juliet, Song: Daughtry - It's Not Over)

Best in Show: MeliChan923 - Ouran High School Never Ends (Anime: Ouran High School Host Club, Song: Bowling for Soup - High School Never Ends)

Staff Pick: Krillin The Villain - You're Beautiful (Anime: Beck MCS, Song: James Blunt - You're Beautiful)

So those are the results for this year's Tora-Con. Thanks so much to everyone who participated, the contest was awesome! We really appreciate everyone's hard work and we hope you'll participate in the years to come :) I'll be working on sending out prizes to the winners in the next few weeks. Thanks again!!!

This year's contest was much better than last year's, that's for sure! Of course I had a hard time choosing which upbeat/dance video to choose from (granted reading this thread about that Ouran video pretty much soured it).

:shock: THANK YOU SO MUCH everyone! Best Upbeat and Best in Show... I wasn't expecting that! *Dances*

And I had no idea that my video was reviewed. :o I'll have to check that out. That would explain the many comments and opinions I have been receiving all of a sudden.

Congratulations to all the other winners and finalists! :D

As the other staffer for the AMVS it was clear you were best in show, but like a huge majority. On the other hand your video fits best in dance/upbeat not in comedy. I'm sure it will do a lot better there.

Thank you! :) You're right: Some parts I edited to be humorous but when thinking of the whole video together it actually is more upbeat than comedy.
