If you ever upload this to the Org -- which you ought to do, I want to get all your stuff in my collection -- you might want to think about doing something to the ending of this because it felt like it needed one last shot, something to bring some closure to everything. It's not that the video abruptly ended, I was really feeling the flow of everything up to that point and even the ending you have here feels nice, but it didn't really resonate with me like everything else before it.

Obviously (shit, is this even worth pointing out?) there's a lot of shots here that anyone who's seen even a handful of YLIA videos is going to be very familiar with. But this felt like a fresh take on those scenes and the series as a whole. This was very moody without being overly-sentimental and I like how you crafted an atmosphere (especially in the opening minute) instead of just making a romance video or whatever. I thought you worked in the music performance scenes pretty well, too, thankfully not making them the centerpiece of the video like we typically see. You make highly-watchable AMVs and your style is always recognizable, don't sell your work short!

I simply Loved it... I like the style, it's really Good and Unique. The atmosphere You build was nice :) and the flow too was Good. The Timing was so Proper... that's actually the factor that made me connect more closely with the Video, Nice Work.

To be honest this is only 80% done, I uploaded it so I can move on to other stuff but I am working on fixing it up and sending out to NDK. Thanks for the feedback. Trying to get productive again ^^.

Means a lot. I hope you enjoy my other stuff if you want to check it out.

I see you haven't met my friend ClipConverter...

Anyway, I second most of what seasons said on this video -- it's very good. It does feel unfinished, and I wish you'd have added some sort of last scene or two at the end because what you have there feels really abrupt and unsatisfying. I also wish there was a little more sync throughout this video in general, but that's actually a more minor complaint as the video creates an outstanding mood. It's not overly sentimental (like seasons said) and it still managed to make me feel about the same way I did when I'd just finished the series -- crushed and hopeless. Other YLIA videos that go the sad route never seem to affect me the way they're supposed to, and I think it's because they all end up feeling really melodramatic. Yours doesn't. I appreciate that.

Great work, looking forward to more from you.

life is slowly getting back on track for me so I will have more time for this hobby. I hope i can pump out a more finished product before the end of summer. I did send the video to NDK for the sake of fun and messed with some minor syncs and the ending but nothing drastic. Looking forward to the future.
