Y'know it's funny, I've had very divided opinions on this. Half of the people who watch it love the lipsync, the other half don't.

Fail for aspect ratio and overfiltering.

Win for EVERYTHING ELSE. There is more more heart in this video than can be contained in a resolution of 720x480. I demand 1280x960. The lipsync made sense to me. It wasn't actually Tamaki's voice. It was Haruhi's narration providing dialogue for her memories. Very well done.

Oh, and, reverse traps are HAWT.

Tell you the truth, I'm not sure if I liked the lip sync. Hands down, awesome vid - Lip sync, not so much. I understood it, and I've seen it done many times, but I'm not sure I liked it.

I think it's dynamic in this presentation because of the song itself. Once I think about it - I don't think you could done it without - because during that lyric you're thinking of him actually saying it. Then again, who am I to judge? I've been listening to Still Alive for the last 96 hours xD

Awesome job, Kia

This was one of the few Ouran AMV's that I've watched, and so far the first Ouran AMV that I really liked. It was simple but effective. It succeeded in the story telling aspect and it was indeed romantic. :up:

Ack, was my aspect ratio off? I'll have to check that...
As far as the lipsync, that's what I thought too, and why I wound up keeping it despite Bashar and dokool's insistences that I drop it. :)

I wasn't insisting that you drop it - just asserting that it made me lol. Cruise control for comedy and all...
