Which brings me back to that one thought:

Now that I have practically my whole DVD collection up for grabs, anyone have any ideas with THOSE anime??

Please. . . Help me. . .

Oh! I also have right now in my possession(but they arn't mine) all of the first season of Kenshin, and the first DVD of the second season.

Curse my replies to my own posts. I'm in "Way off Topic world's longest thread" mode.

I've got some slim sliver of a possible idea. Utena and Kenshin action-y romance-y type thing?

Good or no?

>_< So screwed, am I... SO screwed. . .

After looking at the lyrics and what you said about the song being about a guy killing guys who are after his girl. I still think Gundam Seed is a very appropriate anime, but since you don't have access to it I think from off your list Nightwalker would be a great one to use too. And as a bonus Nightwalker has 0 AMVs for it in the database. Zero, nada.... absolutely noooothing.

Plus there are some scenes from Nightwalker that could work very well with this song.

*spoiler*

In episode 6, Cain tries to kill Riho, so you could play off that whole Shido killing Cain to rescue Riho bit. Plus that bloody kiss scene at the end definately needs to be put into an AMV.

(Urge to make Nightwalker AMV rising rising rising... )

Ayashi Ceres also has some nice scenes I remember, I can see where you're going with some of these scene selections by the words. There's nothing wrong with making a multi-part anime if the scenes match the lyrics and the music. If it matches so well it's eerie, by all means use it!

Never thought Nightwalker would work out so well. 0_o But anyway, Nightwalker DOES have some AMVs in the database. I've used it before. In fact, I'd rather not use it again. That series is somehow very hard to contain within an AMV 0.o

Ah, I also borrowed some more DVDs from a friend. I know have

All but the last four episodes of Gensomaden Saiyuki(If anyone has the english title for that, let me know... Please)

And the complete series of Gate Keppers.

... But I REALLY don't want to use Gate Keepeers. It's like the Japanese equilvelent of Power Rangers. (The Horror!) >_<

Hmm. I guess I'm going to have to rewatch NightWalker. . . I never even guessed of actually USING it. . .

KLin, You're a really pal!

I GOT IT!

OK, implementing KLin's idea(s) and my repeatitive listening of the song, I've decided to do some of this:

Everytime the singer says "I" It'll be Cain. "My Love" and "you" will of course be Shido. Near the end, when it starts talking about "her" That'll be Riho. The person who died, Shido's Bloody Valentine, will be the Human Riho.

It will still be action orietned. Cain will be lip syncing some parts, such as
"Oh, my love
Please don't cry
I'll wash my bloody hands and
We'll start a new life
I don't know much at all
I don't know wrong from right
All I know is that I love you tonight
Tonight"

Although, since you know I'm in love with transparencies, I might just have Cain 'singin' and then stuff going on in the background. Since Cain really isn't trying to change his lifestyle for Shido, but rather, trying to get Shido to come back to Cain, it will sort of be a Nightwalker alternate reality type thing.

Thanks again, KLin!

I just finished ripping the DVD, too.

-waves fist in the air- I want you all to hear me say this:

I WILL AVENGE YOU, DVD PLAYERS FOR NOT LETTING ME WATCH THE LAST FOUR EPISODES OF GENSOMADEN SAIYUKI!!!!

-------------------------
In closing, I'd like to say:
[X] SPAM! You're it!

No problem.

Hmm, I wonder why I couldn't find any Nightwalker AMVs from the super search. Then again, I suppose people might've entered it as Night Walker (With a space) instead of Nightwalker (without a space) I will go look again.

Gensoumaden Saiyuki retains it's name courtesy of ADV. I just hope they don't futz up Genjo Sanzo's dub VA. Mm, the ironies of a pistol-packing bishounen monk.
