And The Nightmare Stops! - Trigun + Coheed

[DANgerous124]

Took me about 10 hours to complete within a span of three days. It's my very first AMV and I'm entering it in the AMV contest at Kami-Con. Let me know what you think. You can also view it on my Youtube page: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mbs-mP9B9KA

I could not follow how the scene choices matched either lyrically or aurally. I am familiar with this series, but not with this song or band.

Really? Someone else said that too.

Here's how I connected the anime with the song.

Pertaining to Vash:

"think of all the things we put him through
in the face of his god would he tell the truth?"

"when eyes go blind in this man of what could once become
sever the limbs off his torso in sleep
and burn what remains so the world may now see
no longer...will we wait for your answers
back to the hell where you've come from
think of all the times you've once had
write them in a letter that says goodbye"


"slowly discarded were the remains of his lonely youth
among the alley where the dwellers scare to notice
picture a young boy in pieces and streets with leveled malfunctions
no name to be called redeemer"

"We'll fix him restore him...with the love is no other
think of all the things you did before
write them in a letter that says reborn"

How Vash is always traveling:
"on the wrong way out
on the causeway to neverwhere"

Vash vs. Knives:
"pull the trigger and the nightmare stops..."

[Kionon]

I meant individual scene choices.

You could've told a better story with this song, rather than limiting yourself to the literal meaning of the lyrics. Also, don't be afraid to come up with your own story for the characters in the anime when making an AMV.

I wasn't really seeing a big connection between the lyrics and the scene choices. Not bad, but it just seemed a tad random overall. =S
