Fast forward 2 1/2 years, I've changed Universities, changed my major (to one that centers around video production), and I'm happy to say hello again to a-m-v.org! The guides and helpful message board exchanges I recieved here were the first baby steps in helping me change my life and I'm happy to contribute any AMV here that I can.
This past year was pretty difficult, I just finished my 5th year of college, and yet I have not yet completed a bachelors degree (the result of my long search for a "calling" during my first 3 years of college). It sounds almost like a line out of Van Wilder, but amazingly, next year I will be a 6th year Senior at my university. I'll skip the details for now, but I'll say that this video is something I have struggled with for 7 months, even though it looks like I made it on a weekend. Even though I should feel down right now considering my R/L circumstances, I feel that this year so far has been successfully, if only because I am able to bring show everyone this video this morning.

The video is called America. The idea came to me when I heard the song featured in this video. It reminded me that like America, Japan (as reflected in anime, at least), has a strong taste for consumerism, sports, and like us, they think watching a good ol' ass kicking makes for good TV.
But really, I just made this video because the song is damn funny and any decently made video would probably be funny too. The video features 23 different animes, as well as some non-anime surprises. If you've seen a lot of anime, theres a good chance you might see one or two things you find funny. 
Feel free to leave opinions (I need some!
). A friend of mine said he thought this would be a classic on a-m-v.org, I think he was just flattering me, but really all of you will end up being the judges of that. Thanks for your time, and enjoy the video!
