I was more inspired by the fact that it used Japanese music (I was a huge j-pop nut back in the day and have done over 40+ DBZ/jpop videos

One of the best and longest "story" driven videos that really takes "storytelling" to a whole other level.
I'm surprised after 5 years it hasn't been duplicated. The closest thing to a short film on this site.

Popular doesn't mean influential, Spoil was part of a trend not the start of one. Whisper of the Beast, for example, is earlier and clearly a similar style. And even then, WotB wasn't the start of the emo grunge pointless effect whore trend.lokitocatracho wrote:What about Spoil by Sayan Visual Studio?

If it hasn't been duplicated, then how has it been influential?Castor Troy wrote:

It was so influential that it scared other editors from attempting to copy it.Kitsuner wrote:If it hasn't been duplicated, then how has it been influential?Castor Troy wrote:
