At first I felt that I shouldn't comment on this amv since I just finished a Clannad amv that uses some of the same clips. But now that I've thought about it for a second, I feel that I can make a less biased critique.
I think that this amv had the potential to be outstanding. This song is just so emotional that it could make just about anything a tear-jerker. And since Clannad is the saddest anime I have ever seen, you truly missed a golden opportunity to make a masterpiece. I really wish you had spent more time on this.
I personally think that a Clannad + Kanon + Air amv would have been epic, but hey.
Anyway, I give this amv a 2.9/5. Some moments were absolutely perfect, but some were a little drawn out and tool long. For example, 2:05-2:20 was truly awesome, but the parts before and after it needed to be edited more. Also, some of the lyrics were a little too dark for Clannad. That's why I feel that Kanon and Air could have helped out a bit. Switching between the 3 series would have also helped the audience stay interested throughout the entire video. (And if you didn't know, Kanon and Air are essentially the Winter and Summer versions of Clannad that were all made by the same people. But since they came out first, most people say that Clannad is the Spring version of them.)
