Glad to see this finally up. I enjoyed watching it at home even more then at NDK because I could pay better attention to detail. I think its a great video with a very polished feel to it...if only I liked the music it would be perfect. But even though I don't like the music, I still like the video and can appreciate the work you put into the 3D and other effects. Oh, and it does certainly maintain the feel and mood of the show. Good job!

5/5 :up:

Oh, I wasn't looking for or even mentioned that you should have every little thing neatly syncing story to music. Also didn't mention lyric sync. I updated my review to explain a little better. :p

Eh... I just think the walls in the 2.5D rooms you made need way more texture. It sticks out from the anime too much like this. (That's what I get from Nio ranting over the same problem in my video over and over :P )
Other than that, great job. A tad too serious for me to watch it over and over. Now back to dance. Gogogogogo

5/5

The effects used are simply amazing,the contrast of the song is magnificent and portrays in the best way the 2 differents aspects of Lucy's character.The best Elfen Lied video technically though it's not my favorite one.
I prefer more down-to-earth videos with simpler effects and more of a story but I cannot deny the awesomeness of this artistic video.

Yay The Birthday Massacre and Elfen Lied, two of my favourite sources combined!!!! (judging from the comment here, am I the only one who likes the song/band?)

Anyway this AMV is just awsome, the effects used where just great and aren´t just there as eye-candy but also serve a purpose, I especially liked the zoom-in-eye effect and the blood text at the beginning and end.
The contrast in Lucys personality is beautifully shown through out the AMV and the song fits this purpose perfectly whith its change in mood.
Definitely one of the best, if not THE best, Elfen Lied AMV I have yet seen!
Added as #1 to my favorites! :up:

I loved the mood changing of the song and how well you showed it in the vid, effects were nice though I would have liked to see more action and beat synch instead of lots of 3D effects, but oh well thats just me :P. I enjoyed the AMV a lot anyway :up:

4/5

hm, while I do think the syncage is way more atmospheric than what you get in most vids and the effects (esp. that scribble overlay) were well-done for the most part, the effectless parts really didn't convince me at all cuz it was lacking some pace ;p

concerning the 3d-effects I'm agreeing with stephan here, more textures, integrational measures and better blending modes/shapes for the images on the walls.

other than that I pretty much enjoyed it 7.7/10 <:
