These are basically my picks for this category. I do not have much of an opinion, and a bit harsh probably at that.

Heartstrings: Too long and boring for me to keep watching, haven't watch it fully yet since it premiered...

ASTRAL MELODIC: I didn't like the overlays (of the instruments) at all and found them more distracting then helping to the atmosphere. I also found myself continually comparing it to "The Stage". Why? Because that one anime, Nodame Cantabile... I completely associate that anime to Cross/fade's AMV, and no matter how many AMV's I watch with that anime now, nothing compares to me D= This is what happens when people make too good of AMVs. Like ukms[z] - Reflections

Jus Talionis: I really love what they did with this AMV/ cross over, but it fits more in drama for me not so much instrumental. Just my personal preference in AMV's and genres of AMVs.

There is one here ;) : http://amvnews.ru/index.php?go=Files&in=view&id=3687
Someone should try to get in touch with him so he can update those links, might help his chances some more.

Oh yes, I didn't think about the megaupload closing website, the links have been changed by an available one. Sorry for the trouble. :wink:

Haha, yeah I can see that. Sometimes you just see an AMV and end up getting a strong association with either the song or the anime that its hard to not think about it when you see either used again.

The more I think about it, comparing how the videos handle their instrumental music, I can get on board with your assessment of Jus Talionis, while its a good video, I think in terms of handling their source music the other videos do a better job of it and Jus Talionis is a stronger contender in its other categories like Drama.

I really love the 1st minute or so of Water Drop that if we went by 1st minute alone of all the vids in the category it would be pretty close to taking the number 1 spot for me, but the 2nd half of the vid drops off in that atmospheric intensity for me that as a whole ends up dropping it down in my overall rankings.
