Kudos for the only video I did not have to rearrange the bitrate for at the con. I think you improved on what I told you at Abunai last year, its not there 100% yet but still a nice leap forward. The video on itself is just simply good and I'm glad I have the HUGE mpeg2 version of this

8.5/10

Not since Princsess Maker have I seen an AMV/Anime OP song crossover done so incredibly well. I only noticed it because I just picked up When They Cry and watched it last night - creeped me out, but loved it, especially the OP song.

The editing style manages to almost duplicate the Higurashi no Naku Koro ni title opening but goes beyond to reflect the MADLAX anime instead. It almost makes the series look more interesting than it really is. My first impression is absolute amazement...certainly a keeper in my collection.

this seems to be more like a step back from yer last vid jeroen.
especially the pacing/flow can't keep up since the transitions are a little too hard for this pretty soft song...

on the technical side I don't have that much complaints aside from my dislike for these effects, don't seem to fit in esthetically as last time...

so yar, overall good video but definitely nothing outstanding... 6.2/10

I've always been a fan of your vids, and this one certainly didn't disappoint. Like rubyeye said, this was an incredibly well done crossover, excellent editing and scene progression. To me, it almost felt like some sort of OP sequence on its own, albeit somewhat longer than a normal anime OP

Very cool, enjoyable to watch and some really neat compositions. Nice job : up :

That was just a really cool video. Scene selection was great and the editing was slick and paced well. Enjoyed this one for sure.

Because Bee Train keeps cloning their one successful concept?

Cool video though.

Rellik, really nice flow you got going on in this vid - I think this is the best one you've released so far and you make MADLAX look like something interesting! Fortunately, it doesn't suffer of the Rellik-transitions you used to have in past (if you know what I mean).

For some reason some parts remind me Project Xanthium, how you synced some screen effects with the sound effects.

Nice job!
