Finally a goog AMv by kinckass331? Well... depends on perspective. If I look at your past works, I guess it finally is a good AMV - so I applaud you like I promised.
But sadly, in any other respect... it totally fails.

If you like this quality, like to watch it (btw. have you watched it already?) you don't have to read on.

First thing I would like to say is that this one is two maybe three times better than your previous. Looks like you attempted some syncing and sometimes got it right. You even abandoned your practice of using extremely long sequences with no movement. I see you were maybe trying some artistic approach with all these effects and they don't look like a few color splats on a canvas as seen in your previous vid.
But it still is a long way to go.

What kills your vid are overused effects which don't look like few color splats but neither are pleasant to watch. What helps you a lot here is good music which sort of drags you along. But there's a lot more you could do with this song. Although you tried to cut them to half, many scenes are still way too long and still. Another issue are the loops. This time it isn't one extremmely long and annoying loop but a lot of relatively short scenes reused many times throughout the video. You could get away with one repetition of some of them (if you had luck) but this was way too many. And at 00:02:26 the splatted canvas makes its return. The 02:27 scene might even work if it was much shorter, but the whole segment is really annoying.

Overall this amv is a lot better than your other works (it wasn't totally boring and it had some light moments) but it will be inevitably torn to shreads by the angry mob because it still isn't any good.
So if you stop overusing effects (or using them at all) and take your time your next video might be the really good one. Nobody is beginner forever.
