This video takes a bit to get going, but not too long. It appears to be simply edited for the most part, most of the effects being simple masking here and there. As a comedy video that relies heavily on lyric sync, it doesn't need more than that.
What I still love about this video is how, even as Al's complaints about his significant other get more and more specific, Cyanna manages to come up with visuals that match them more often than not. Bad makeup? Belching? Body odor? Alliteration? Yellow teeth? Puddle of drool? Yup, they're all in there.
The only part I don't really like is the drum fill, but not having seen any of Nodame Cantabile, I have no idea what else could have been done with it.
In short, it may be another "Weird Al" video, but it works -- and it's to a song that not everybody knows already. Also, it could be a fine advertisement to those who haven't seen the series (even though it really doesn't have much in the way of music going on).
