Your Lie in April AMV - Never Quite Enough

[Tigrin]

uncomfortable honesty time! feel free to skip. the long story behind this video made short is that I really related a lot to Kousei's anxieties in this anime, and I thought of the idea for this video earlier in the year, sort of panicked and dropped it for a while, then picked it back up and completed it to submit at the last minute to Anime Expo. when it made the finalists I was so relieved I cried for about an hour. Even while watching it at AX I really wondered if this video and I were good enough to be in such outstanding company.

I'm trying to move past the constant anxiety-provoking search for perfection and just be okay with the success or failure of the things I make not being a reflection of my own value as a person. I know there's problems with it still but I'm trying to do my best to learn from my mistakes and grow.

Anyway, thanks for watching if you do watch it.

It was simply Beautiful Right from the start. So Touching and Smooth... The scene selection and the whole Concept was Great. Since I didn't see the anime, can't tell much but it did create Impact You wanted. Hope to see more such AMVs Keep it up.

Wow. Just the way you captured a perspective from the show that is not the typical one. This is absolutely perfect. I hope one day I edit an amv that can communicate like this video does.

Good job on using this anime in a way I haven't seen before. Not crazy about the video mainly because I don't care for the song, and despite the different subject matter it still has the same super melancholy atmosphere as pretty much every other YLIA video, but the storytelling and editing are both there in spades. I can see myself coming to like this more over time, however!

I think some of the lyrics are practically the same as what the mother said in the show... @__@;

Thanks! Yeah most of the videos for Your Lie in April seem to be about the girl dying, wanted to do something a bit different, since I thought this aspect of the story was really compelling and relatable (to me at least).

Haha thanks, yeah unfortunately Your Lie in April's story and imagery seems to lend itself well to sad videos; I was really surprised when I watched the series and found out it's just as much a romantic comedy as a drama. o_O would like to see more upbeat videos to YLIA, there's a real challenge.

I was going to write something, but realized it would basically be a paraphrase of this ^
