Except for frame blending, absolutely solid video. Effects were integrated smoothly and you show some nice editing skills. GJ!
4.25/5

EDIT: The quality was kinda strange... Other than that, it was good. And nice to see a non-action FLCL video, too.

The mp4 is up. Please notify me if you still think it strange, thank you. ^^"

Thanks, hope you like the mp4 thats up right now. I'm no expert but I find there's quite a difference in quality between itself and the avi.

It's little touches like that that make a video just that much better.

Yes. I prefer it in drama videos when the effects aren't too obvious. To make sure it doesn't take away from the point and the actual drama.

Excellent...well hmm....I don't want to go as far as to say storytelling, but thats definitely what it felt like. You basically took episode two and put it under a magnifying glass with this one, exploring all the aspects of Naota and Mamimi's "relationship" if you even want to call it that.

My only complaint, and its been said, is the video quality. But this AMV more than makes up for it. I'm going to give this a VERY solid 5/5 despite the minor video quality issues.

Wow, thank you. Yeh ,it was quite hard making a whole video on those 2 without going out of context. It kinda felt like I was recycling episode 2 over and over again. I'm just glad to see that there are people who can appreciate that.

Don't forget not Action. =P

MPEG-4 is Half Sized??

0_0

Did you decrease the bitrate on purpose?

BTW : I'm pretty sure you used "smart blur" in this video

Watched the MP4, other than a few minor problems with ugly blocks (right at the start and near the end) the video quality was relatively the same, albeit the half sized file...

Yeah, this video was AWESOME. I've seen quite a few sentimental FLCL AMVs, and this was as good as any of them. Not crazy about the song, however, so I'm not going to be rewatching it much, but it's still a keeper, and a solid 5/5 in my book
