Very good amv and really touching.And as I'm a fan of romance vids,this is definitely a keeper.Love Hina is the first anime I ever saw and holds a special place in my collection. :up:
Just like other people mentioned,the superb song is the moving force of this amv.The quality is also pure perfection and the editing,though simple,is solid without any flaws.Well,maybe the only flaw is lip flappage at some points.
However,the storyline confuses you a bit.I read your vid description but I still couldn't understand the meaning you tried to convey behind some scenes.So,instead of trying to sort the scenes used according to their meaning,I'd say that both characters remember the good times and the bad times they had while now being apart.They both feel a bit of regret for how things went this way but the moment of truth comes - Naru shows the photo to him,Keitaro understands the truth about Mutsumi and decides to stay with her.Naru can only kiss him as a goodbye...

Anyway,I liked the vid and I'll be sure to watch it more. 4/5 :D

That was an interesting watch. I mainly downloaded because of the positive comments above. I haven't seen Love Hina, so..

I pretty much enjoyed your video. But then again, I tend to enjoy average romance videos. And this was one of those, in my opinion. The first thing that comes to my mind is your sync. Not talking about the mood sync but rather the technical one. I think the fade-flow should have been smoother instead of too sharp and akward fades and flashes. Your sync was too linear for my taste.

I don't exactly know what is the case here, but it looks like another romance vid with a random clip selection.. I'm not sure though, because I'm missing a lot because I haven't seen the anime.. Your mood sync was decent though. The song was very pretty and sensitive and I think you captured its mood quite well ^^ Not sure what to think about the sepia though..

3/5 (with the emphasis on the mood) :up:

Here's my two cents worth.

It's a kind-of average romance video, with cute footage and a much more improved content and video quality. I still had your old video from when I opinioned it years ago, and I compared the two, and the improvement is amazing.

3.75/5.00

Don't know why but I just didn't like this video. Mabey it was that I didn't like the song or, because iv never seen the anime. The video had good flow tho some points were a little weird and messed up the mood for a few seconds.

Overall the video had pretty nice editing but, the video just isn't my taste.

3.5/5

The only thing that bothered me about this video is slight randomness in some parts. Otherwise, it's very good and emotional.

Gets 4/5 from me :up:

Well at least someone understood a part of the story lol ^^ Thanks for watching,glad you liked it FMS :up: :)

Yes,this is average romance video,and I won't deny that :P About transitions - now that I look at it myself,I kinda agree with you - I think it was a bad choise to use Addictive Dissolve.. :| As for fades,you probably mean that I should've made them a bit longer? Well,when Jadzzia was beta-testing she said same thing,but it's pretty hard to use longer fades and keep the sync at the same time,because lyric lines are just changing too fast to make space for more moody fades... It's still pretty hard for me to use many advantages of editing,because I don't have much experience yet... :?

Random clips.. Heh,I guess there's really a big need of lyric translations.. I've used each scene for a purpose - story,mood,or lyrics.. :| I guess viewer is right here,but I'm still pretty sure it shouldn't look random.. Or is it just me,because I understand the lyrics and the story?.. Anyway - thanks for watching,and for critique (hope I spelled it right.. >.>). :)

Here's my two cents worth.

Lol @ years ago ^^ Thanks,I'm impressed that so many people tell me that I've improved amazingly (don't want to boast though),guess I've really impressed a bit :) Glad you liked it man :up: Oh and... Someone still owes me a free op >.> Wonder who's that person?... :roll:

What?! Go watch the anime right now! J/k ^^ (though a lame one..)

It's pretty hard to read with such a grammar :? And yeah,I agree there are 2 scenes which ones mess up the mood. Damn,shoul've notice that earlier :x

Thanks for checking out. Each one has his own tastes :)

Randomness again.. I should really get those translations faster >.>

Thanks for watching,and I'm really glad you liked it. :up: If it wasn't your beta-testing,I think I would've messed up a big time in few points lol ^^



I wish people would edit their post,since these few opinions are very interesting to me.. :

Thank you everyone for your comments and a big thanks again to CrackTheSky and CodeChrono - I'm impressed that you DVD using people are telling me that quality is "drop-dead gorgeous" ^^ I still don't understand how the hell did I got such a quality.. Probably learning AviSynthing helped here ^^

-- Update.

I've updated vid info page with lyrics,so if anyone wants to check them out,you may now do so.. I've translated them myself,so most likely there'll be a couple of misspellings..
:D I like laughter ;DD
