• Comments: I don't know what made me want to make this, but something clicked with the song. Although it is a love song, I thought it could also show friendship well. I think the line I love the most has to be:
  
  Don’t forget how we lived that summer
  Because you were my youth
  
  I guess it shows my opinion of Wild Arms 4, which really doesn't get the credit it deserves, it's really bittersweet. I tried to create a sort of...looking back feel with this, and focus on the relationships, mainly Jude and Hauser, Yulie and Kresnik and Arnaud and Raquel.
  
  One aspect that annoys me is the subtitles on the ending footage!! Infact, the footage itself was a pain with the huge filesize. At the end though, I was glad the text was there, sums it up lovely.
  
  I've not made an AMV in years, so this was a challenge. It took about a week? I had a rough idea of scenes, but when I put it together it didn't work so well, so I guess this video is half what I pictured. I love it though, as it's something I did want to make.
  
  The translation I used is from Kiwi Musume, having the lyrics may show what I was aiming for with this.
  
  Enjoy :)
