First!

What an orgasmic combo O: I'm really eager to see how you synced this song.

EDIT: Thanks for the sendspace link you gave me \o/ Now I don't have to wait until tomorrow =P

This was hella cool, just as expected, and you pretty much managed to keep up with the song's awesomeness. The way you synced to the beats with flashing, it's the type of oversync that just works for the video's own good. It made it keep up with the song yet it wasn't obnoxious and didn't cover up the clip selection. Just like good oversync should be like :up:

The mood sync was totally original and really compelling right from the start 0.0 (Although.. I guess my love for My Bloody Valentine and the anime plays a part in it :3) The clip selection.. Well, it's not like this video has much to say. It was just a simple portrait of Cossette and Eiri, which worked just fine. I really don't have much to complain about. There was one distracting thing though and it was that you didn't really manage to sync that loud guitar noise properly. I'm sure you could have been more creative on that. Like, it wasn't living up the song's intensity. You could have put very fast cuts on the background or added shakiness effect or anything to match up with it.. But you didn't.. It was just fine the way it is now as well though :3

Now.. Judging by your editing, I'd say it's worth 4/5 but because I really, really, like the combination, I'll have to say 4½/5. Very nice job :up:

And because I love you, I'm gonna op it later :3

i liked it. Good work. The huge amounts of sync really made it difficult on my eyes however.

Well, I had alot of problems with this thing. :l First I downloaded it and tried to play it in my vlc. My pc turned off. Rebooted my pc and played it, I watched it up to a certain timeline and then it screwed up on me. I then tried to put it in wmp and it did the same. Maybe its just me.. idk. Anyway, from what I saw, its a very good combination (I compliment you on that) but you were trying to hit tooo many beats. Like almost all the beats in the song, that really threw me off. Anyway, whenever I get this thing to work I'll rate it, and probably leave an op.

edit: I remember this problem on your last hellsing amv. :S

There are problems with your AMV for me, too. It just freezes in the middle at VLC. I tried to open it with zoom player and saw the last part, but there was no sound unfortunately :S

That's weird, because the filesize seemed to be right when confirming it.. Requested deletion of local file, and will reupload tomorrow from a.. more decent connection.
