In search of...

Postby MaliceDR » Wed Apr 02, 2003 11:26 am

I've been inspired to make an AMV to a song from Korn's Follow the Leader album. I can't seem to find enough footage of what I need, however.

Here's the deal: I need badasses with a bit of a goth feel to them. An excelent example is Kyosuke Date from Soultaker, but that series is short and the plot was shitty. Dante from Devil May Cry 2 (and to a lesser extent in DMC1) is another perfect example. Too bad DMC isn't an anime.

I need more characters. If you know a goth badass from any other series, toss me a bone. The series can have a terrible plot for all I care. I just need to take clips.

Also, if anyone knows of a series with a sort of hip hop feel to it, give it up. I'm certain these are very rare though, judging from the fact that Japan's music industry is a good ten years behind the US's.

Why don't you try Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust? That might go well with what you're working on.

If the song is Got the Life then please don't use Bloodlust, I just finished a vid to that this morning.

Sorry, but I'm gonna be a dick about this. Any character who wears a rimmed hat is out. I want to be able to see the eyes without having to look around a sombrero.

I'm thinking about including some bits from Gawl. Gawl isn't badass, but his generator form is, and the series also has a few nice energy effects.

I have not seen Hellsing or Vamp Hunter D, though I plan to fix that.

Freak and Got the life are out. I was thinking more along the lines of Reclaim my place.

I'd say Alucard. He's a bad ass without his hat =O

Alucard ditches his hat in the last episode, so u might be interested in that. unless u generally have a thing against guys wearing them. :lol:

Nah, I think Alucard looks ghey in the last episode. I'm talking about in the first few episodes when he's all bishounen-like. Kinda reminds me of Legato like that.

hey rozard may have stumbled on something ... Legato .. sorta gothic, has an aura of death, all who crosses him, or just generally pisses him off ends up being impaled by one of their own limbs .. thats the good shizzy. :D
...the problem I see a lot is that many good amv makers think they suck, and many bad amv makers think they're good.

Keitro's sister from Love Hina Again is a goth,
Vampire Princess Miyu, the demon lava runs around with a death scythe a bit of the time the rest of the time he uses his hand to generally decapitiate people.
Hellsing's alcaurd is definately a must thats for sure.
X TV, i don't know if its total goth, but it has a dark sort of a feel to it from time to time, it just might be the empending doom that it creates.
Boogiepop phantom would be another one you could use.
