Un nuevo AMV de accion!!!
Well, I liked a lot, also note some very interesting special effects, editing is very good, but could be better! I feel something lacking, AMV note that this is not aimed at any point clear! For me it was very confusing selection of anime you used, not having anything to do from one another or with the music! :?


3/5...bueno!!!

Meh, this video looked to be about 33% editing and 77% flashy dumb shit. I really saw very little editing but a ton of effects that didn't make sense about half the time. You also mixed in anime that didn't really fit the tone of the song and it seemed really out of place. You also had the wrong AR for a lot of the anime and instead of cropping it all to be either 4:3 or 16:9 you switched from bars to no bars instead of using an effect to add bars without it just cutting from a scene that was without bars to one with bars. You had enough effects to where you could have definitely done a fade into the bars so it didn't look as obvious every time, I would have cropped Anime to be one AR though. I can see you put a great deal of effort into this video but it just seems to be missing the mark. 2/5

EDIT: I don't really understand the absurdly low scores, sure there were some technical issues (AR, black bars etc) but overall I think this was a rather nice AMV.

The length of it didn't bother me at all, I love DJ Taka and this kept my interest throughout. Some effects may have been overkill, but I can still say I enjoyed this a great deal.

4.2/5 expect an OP sometime in the near future, I think you did great.
im happy atleast some ppl like it.

if i were you i would cut down the amount of effects, and use them when the music allows to use them.

feels kinda sad giving a bad score for this since you can see you put alot of time into it.

2.8/5
hmm i guess i could have spent more time on the amv.

Lack of rhythm, cohesion and fluidity. Too many random effects. I can see the effort you put in it but I didn't like it.
