The Chariot

The charioteer wears emblems of the sun, yet the sign behind this card is Cancer, the moon. The chariot is all about motion, and yet it is often shown as stationary.
What does this all mean? It means a union of opposites, like the black and white steeds. They pull in different directions, but must be (and can be!) made to go together in one direction. That is perhaps the most important message of the Chariot. Separate the driver form the chariot, the chariot from the horses, the horses from each other and from the driver, and nothing gets done. They all do their own thing. Put them all together, with the same goal in mind, and there will be no stopping them.

Surprisingly I wasn't too crazy about this. The anime/song combo just seemed...off. The song was way too happy/optimistic for most of the scene selection, at least until the end. I dunno...I may need to watch it a couple more times though, because there were some really phenomenal moments in the video. Ohhh well...if this means you get to move on to other projects then so be it.

Ah darn xD I know the film has a very dark tone, but I wanted to kind of highlight that it isn't all dark/Kuro's story. The movie has some gorgeous animation sequences and more lighthearted moments with Shiro that I hoped would balance out these darker scenes like the kids do with one another. Them music I understand is gonna be a hit or miss. To me, while the song is inspiring, it is by no means happy. A lot of the lyrics is about dissatisfaction and leaving your old life/ways behind you and that is what I tried to kind of vaguely show with this xD but thank you for the feedback! my next vid wil honestly probably be done by tomorrow haha >>

WTF... I was Preparing for an AMV on this very Song and I thought it was never used & now I see is You already made a Video on it. So Anyway, It was Fine :) The Movie seems Good but I feel the scenes didn't fit the music and also at many places they were not in Rhythm. It sure would have been better but still It's Good. I would say it's a nice Attempt.
