I think I would find this a lot cooler had I ever actually played FFVI.

Yay! Ever since I saw this for the first time in a signature, I've always wondered how the project was going to be done. Well, now I know, and damn am I impressed.

Not only did the creators pay homage to one of the best ending themes ever, but this would not and could not ever be considered a generic FF video - which, technically, it isn't...but it is...I think you understand.

Great, solid editing on each of the editors' parts. The whole video flowed very smoothly and with hardly a hitch, if any at all.

To be honest, I haven't seen any of the anime in it, but I can tell that each of the characters were cast well from what little I do know of each series - especially Mokona. That was perfect. Also, I haven't played FFVI either - I just started it a few days ago, coincidentally - but I've seen the whole game from my brother, so I know all of the characters.

All in all, this is something to be proud of, and if this video doesn't win some awards somewhere then the judges are on crack or something. This is one of the best video concepts and executions of 2005, for sure.

Kickass. I loved it. ^_^ *cheers on the creators*

PS: one question, and I suppose that this is directed more at Burntoast, since it was his section. Did you take D's horse into consideration as playing the role of Interceptor, or was that some brilliant coincidence? Either way, it was the perfect choice.

Oh man, excellent work! Every single track was very well edited and I couldn't pick a bad one out of the bunch if I tried. Excellent work with the credits as well, how long did it take to do that special sprite work? :P

Definitely going on my psp! :D

Screw the Local, I went for the Direct!

Talk about nostalgia here! And didn't I tell ya' Mokona would be a perfect fit for Mog? :mrgreen:

Though there were some good fits in the video as well.

The "FFVI-anime" sprites took a few weeks to get done at about an hour or so each day.

Speaking of which, if anyone wants to have a copy of any of those sprites I can upload as avatars or as JPEGS. Just ask.

I'm thinking the same. Editing wise, there's nothing wrong with it, but I can't place the characters which I would have if I had played FFVI.

This is definitely an AMV for fans of FFVI, there's no denying. I don't think I could have finished watching if I weren't familiar with the game. Some specifics...

Great move with Kakashi, I must say. :up: SephirothJenova did a good job with Terra, but I think it was mostly the choice of who to use that made that part gold. I think Terra's was my favorite. Good job, editors. :up:

Damnit! Why did you have to realease it when I just got out of town! Now I'm running on internet that goes 38.6 kb/s. :x

Is it worth waiting the super long time to get it, or should I just wait until I get home? :?:

What are you talking about? It's not a super long wait if you're downloading at 38.6kbs...I'm downloading at 4.0kb and it'll be done in 6 hours. You should be done in what, like 30 minutes?
