I've never seen this anime, it certainly looks unique. But this music... I don't even know how many times (hours and hours?) I've heard this theme over the years, and I always certainly enjoyed it but it wasn't until now that I felt I could appreciate it for what it is. Really beautiful music, which is why you chose it, I'm sure.
This is a nice slice-of-life, ambient, peaceful, occasionally beautiful AMV that doesn't really do anything that will grab anyone's attention and is cut at a pace that's a little too fast to lull the viewer into any kind of a trance, but only a handful of videos that set out to do that even come anywhere close to working out. Great scene selection, never gets boring, pretty visuals, captures a VERY melancholoy feeling without being heavy-handed about it. You might be trying to tell a story, I dunno, if you did I'm afraid it was lost on me, but I'm fine with getting whatever I want out of this AMV and I think other viewers will as well.
Good use of sound effects in this, very subtle to the point of being subliminal.
Describing an AMV as a "palate cleanser" is probably not the kind of praise that you're looking for but I mean that in the best possible way here.
I hope some more people give this a chance because it's guaranteed to be unlike anything else they're going to watch today.
Your Mediafire links seems to be dead but it's still up for download on AMVnews. Why not upload it here, too?
