Oh my. Thanks, it means quite a lot to me :ying:

I love blue and sparkling videos, and the plot is quite easy to understand, even if it could be told better: it would have been more interesting if you showed what kind of relationship there was between the boy and the "ghost" girl.
However I really enjoyed this, it's not easy to combine different sources that good. Good luck for the contest!
Thank you so much! Blue and sparkles has always been *.*. About the relationship... read my post above xD. Thanks once again!

I wrote about the story thing above^^. I'm glad you liked it anyway :ying:

As I needed some break with studying, I've done a fast 'making of'. Aspect ratio is bad but, oh well, need to get back to studying.

First of all: Awesome job! :up:

Now that I got that out of my system, let's get a little more specific...

I loved every bit of the video, including the story. With the recent abundance of crossover videos with tight storytelling following pretty much the same pattern of unrequited/tragic love, what you did felt like a breath of fresh air. A storytelling video built solely on emotions, a mystery but unpretentious amv. I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea but the vague storytelling was precisely what made the atmosphere so strong. I actually even felt that the photo frame at the end was telling too much, and since it is a very concrete and in crossover videos overused object it felt kind of disrupting to the whole mystery atmosphere.

Anyways... loved it!

EDIT: just please don't make your storytelling too easy to understand. I want to see more videos like this one^^

I liked it, the blue feeling is cool, the implementation of the different animes and how you managed to make it burst when the music finally takes off :D Could have been smoother and cleaner at some parts but it was ok overalls. Good job and good luck in Akross!
