The anime source, text, effects and editing in general really made this look like a spoof on child abuse instead of something serious and emotional. Some of the dialogue and scene combination had me laughing like when the girls grabbing her inner thighs, rolling around frantically on the bed like she needs to pee saying, "I can't get married anymore" and then running out of the room in a comical fashion right in front of her friend whose got her head on the table.

That scene had me loling...
If you ever redo this video get a different anime source (Ichigo Mashimaro looks waaaaaay too innocent and light-hearted to be taken seriously), a different song (Mad World is used in pretty much every video trying to appear ironic), cleaning up the editing (Too much text all over the place and too many unnecessary and unappealing effects covering the screen).
If you presented this as a comedy (dark humor/black comedy) it would've worked better...I just can't see how I could have taken this video seriously

Edit: Ok wait..you put this video under both serious and parody. Was this video trying to be serious or funny?
