As the editor's info will tell you, this was a spur of the moment idea that sparked when I was creating another AMV. The idea behind this goes like this:
I've wanted to use this song for a while, but didn't know what to pair it with. Then it hit me. In Gunslinger Girl, it was Rico's story stuck with me. Her situation was probably the most jarring. She's unable to see any wrong in anything she does or what she's put through, definately the more robotic and conditioned of all the girls, and yet she's capable of feeling joy or happiness. So much so, that that and her handler are what take top priority with her. It's disturbing, depressing, but at the same time, made her character moreso endearing than Henrietta. I thought that the downed feel of this song compliments her character. The lyrics, admittedly, would be better paralleled with a self-loathing character, but the lyric "What's the matter with me?" (or simply Que Pasa in the spanish version) just seems to stick.
I chose the Spanish version as the primary version because it felt like it fit better and the lyrics are a bit more uplifting. I've put the english version up for download though, so if you like what you see, but dislike this version of the song, feel free to download that instead.
