Thank you. I would even accept low scores if it's for a truthful opinion from you :up:

Sorry, Animated. Disqualified. Rule 1 clearly states, "No Death Note." I realise this was a multi-anime video, but rules are rules. For what's worth, while it's not particularly my style, and you had some macroblocking issues, I liked the edgy, experimental feeling of the video in general. Not sure I'd be able to watch it multiple times though, which is why DQing is probably for the best. I usually loop a video several times in order to write detailed ops, and that might be difficult for me.

The round goes on.

Butterflo, all right, but it will not count for purposes The Opinion Games. Your op will be entirely independent.

No problem at all, Kionon. As for Death Note, yes, I had read the rules but those scenes were about... 2 seconds long, so I thought it wouldn't matter. Thank you for your comment anyway! And kudos for opening such a thread :up:

It's not so much that they bothered me; to be honest, I don't care. However, I do care about being fair, and I don't want someone coming in and saying, "hey, you accepted Animated's video, and it had Death Note, why can't you accept my NarutoPark Z video?"

I run these every few years until I get bored with them. It's a way of making me watch stuff I might otherwise not watch. However, I also hope that new Utena videos will come around from it. I have more Utena videos than I do for any other series, by a significant amount. Gigs of just Utena videos. KOR only jumps Utena because it is my favorite series and it is so rare, but I haven't seen anyone make a KOR video in a long time...

Kev, yeah. I tried, really, I did. Especially since it opens with music I would not really describe as death metal. However, as it wore on and the screaming started, it became really, really difficult to continue to listen. Finally after what felt like an eternity, I had to stop the video. It was only then that I realised I had only listened to 4:25 of an over EIGHT MINUTE video. I can barely get much past three, and that usually includes bumpers and credits. There is no way I could have put up with the alternating opera and screaming for that long, especially given how much I dislike Petit Cossette (I find it deeply depressing and disturbing, not what I watch anime for). I'm sure it was done very well, but there's no way I could give it the op it deserves. Sorry.

Domius, your video meets the qualifications, so it's accepted, although I'm not sure you're going to like what I have to say... Please, no one post until round three has started. Until I finish Domius's OP, we are still in round two.

Domius, your OP is up, but I don't think you're going to like what I had to say.

For everyone else, I am ready.

Round 3, fire when ready.
