Not bad for a first vid. There was some excellent mood and lyric sync; so the 'togetherness' of the amv was definitely there. For the future though, I'm sure you'll work on polishing the video a bit, and refining your method of creation; cropping/enhancing etc. The how-to-guides and forums can help with that. Overall, everything fit quite nicely :o

You created a very nice mood in this. I didn't actually find the subtitles too annoying, they appeared like twice, but it's still a shame.

The scene selection was probably what made this so nice. However, looking at the whole thing, it feels somewhat incoherent.

Also avoid long credits. Just annoying in my opinion (but that's just me).

Definately better than your typical first video. It didn't quite flow as nicely as I'd have liked it to, but I can't really expect perfection. I liked the dark tone that you set.
anything else would just be repeating what's already been said
I'll definately have to remember to check out your future work

Same as above. Good first video.

Just finished watching this series some days ago. Your spoiler warning should be taken serious. ;) Great show btw.

Good for a first video, but i'll expect you to improve a lot on the technical stuff.
Conceptwise the AMV worked and you show potential for good stuff to come.
Keep it going but please improve. And make your next AMV from DVDs.

Oh and don't put on such a long ending (or opening) with a completely different mood then what the amv left with. Thats like erasing ones own effort to even set a mood.

If you had removed the subtitles and timestamps I would have cried. Great job! 4/5

This gets a 2/5. It should be 1/5, but corpse kids looked like they were having such a happy birthday that I just had to like it.

Since you're well aware of subs, and annoying random time codes, my only complaint that the scene selection, maybe it's because I haven't seen the series, but overall was... meh. Instead of a long rant, I'll just say, consider the audience that hasn't seen the show and wonder, if they saw this with no context, would any of this make sense?
