Someone has watched one of your videos and the thought the anime looked worth seeing and they started watching it? How big a compliment do you consider this?

I personally consider it a huge compliment and like it when people say that. And it's happened to me twice, once for Lain and once for Blue 6.

People get pissed at me all the time because I made them think they would like the Utena movie

On the flip side, there's also the cautionary video, which endeavors to keep people away from a given show.

Case in point: Fluxy's "Psychological Damage" which speaks out about the atrocities of Big Wars.

It's happened to me a couple of times with Memories and once with Love Hina and I take it as a huge compliment.

That's an even bigger compliment, If you can get people to think they will like a movie that they really don't.

I do love that. Ive had several people go out and buy Soultaker after they saw my video. Truely a wonderfull feeling.

What I enjoy far more though, is when they said that they had never heard of a band/song untill my video, and the now own the CD thanks to my video that exposed them to it. Makes me feel like Im doing my part for the artist that (unknowingly) lent his/her music to my video.
Ive recieved a ton of emails telling me how much they now enjoy Citizen Cope after they watched my Appetite vid. *joy*

Any way, thats my 2 cents

I've gotten several responses where people said they are now going out to buy Outlaw Star or Saber Marionette J because of my videos. I also have a couple people who hate me because I made them like a Blues Traveler song ^^

Hmm, I guess I should speak up more when videos make me think that, because it happens relatively often. (I do tend to d/l videos for series I don't know if I like the song. :p)

Anyhow, no, never happened to me, of course. Though I think someone said I made Star Ocean look neat...unfortunately the CG in the clips I used appears in approx. 10% of the game, so I wouldn't want them to believe that.
