I think this is a great video with alot of emotion and technical quality. Congrats. Deffinently worth the time.

I also think that if the Koop hadn't made this, it wouldn't have made it past one or two pages. (And certainly not over night.) And that there's a fair amount of sentimental amvs out there of the same quality.

In other words, stop being hypocrites and go post in the threads of people who need more than just their name to get the community swarming on them like Bees to honey.

Oh, and 4/5, I don't care if you're bucking the trend, it needed more crossfades. :x

That was cool. The only thing that keeps me from re-watching it mostly is that I don't care much for ef myself, but still, i don't have any real complaints about the video. Guud stuff.

Unfortunately I found this pretty dull. The slow, ponderous music and mostly unsynced cuts lost my interest in short order. I watched it through once but it was an exercise in willpower, made on good faith since I enjoy a lot of your other work. It almost seemed like you deliberately made this difficult to get into. Not sure where you were going with this.

The theme was strong, at least, and the narrative implications intrigued me enough to read a synopsis of the show, but the actual plot arc seems pretty silly and childish in comparison to what you implied here. So in that vein I suppose you succeeded in retelling the story in a more interesting way.

Never seeing the anime myself most of the time it was hard to tell what was actually done, but for the obvious effects they seemed well placed and added to the video. For the most part it flowed quite nicely, though I did lose interest for a few seconds in some areas.

Overall, nice job. Gave me that wow feel. :up:

This is because you people wouldn't know good drama/sentimental/romance, or any combination thereof, even it up and bit you in the ass, unless, as you say, it's zOMG kewp.

You're damned right if this video hadn't been made by Jay, it would not be getting the love fest it is now, and to me that just proves how the org's level of maturity is appalling these days.

Get off my lawn, and stop playing in my petunias, friggin ritalin-requiring, ADD addled freaks.

Time for more replies... no quotes this time though, kinda just doing a mass reply.

First, that other video is comin... someday >_>

To autraya, sorry, but maybe someday. |:

To guy, adding her childhood would've made it too complex cause of her sister, who I did not feel was emphasized anyway in the show.

To straight cut man, yes I stood up while doing this.

To anti-flow people, watch the show and you'll see what I was mimicing. Like I said in my video description, it's meant to be this way, much like how the show was. It's so easy to make a video to hit beat after beat with a straight cut, crossfade, or some flashy overlay. I've made enough slow sentimental videos to know this. Let's say perhaps that I did just hit every beat and only on every beat with some kind of scene transition, that would've been really boring and very predictable. Sometimes you gotta try something different, or even more basic to keep things interesting. Actually, there was a moment in the show that pretty much admits that. A crossfade IS an effect and I think it has been abused too much nowadays. So many videos just don't even try anymore with their blatant overuse of them that it becomes just a garbled mess of imagery layered on top of each other. I'm not saying that my video is anywhere near perfect, but its a start.

To leah, I felt the same way about the show when I started watching it (read the video description). I almost didn't finish watching it myself - so its not just you, and nor was out to fool you about how the show actually is.

To anti-koop sentiment, I can't help that my past always bring about hype, but in all honesty, a lot of the people that have posted on this thread and most of my other threads are people I've met and talk to over the years. I appreciate that they come out to leave a comment (or rather I force them with bribes.. of sandwiches?) and that kinda snowballs into others leaving a comment too, I think. It's had its consequences for sure as I've been hated on nearly as much, but its ok.

Thanks all for the comments. |:>

I've never met you but I let a message.

I've found this video not boring, so I consider that it is a good video.
I particularly like the purple/yellow sequence in 1.52. I particularly don't like when the characters speak on nothing.
