• Comments: This was my entry in the AWA Pro Contest for 2008.
  
  The quality is suffering because I captured my footage instead of ripping it. This is my last video doing that. Converting to Mp4 really makes the difference in seeing the lack of fine detail unfortunately. I tried playing with it for a month or so after AWA but lost interest in trying to polish it. After forgetting about it for almost 3 months I decided enough was enough. Its time to release it. Hence me releasing it in 09 instead of 08.
  
  If you saw this video in the PRO contest there were a lot of changes made to the latter half of the video since I felt it needed more focus on the story I wanted to tell. After AWA I felt I had to make those changes before I could put it out which again contributed to the delay in the release date.
  
  Essentially the video is about what a complete bastard Shuji is for most of the show in regards to his on again off again girlfriend.....who happens to be the ultimate weapon. I wanted this to be more of a sad romantic tale than anything SciFi like the actual plot of the story. Rather I don't care if people know its there but I did not want to focus on it during the video.
  
  Encoding was very tough for me this time out. Which for me was a huge pain and I couldn't have done it without help from many talented folks but I would especially like to thank DaCoolGohan, Pie Row, Castor and Niotex for helping me get everything encoded. It wouldn't look half as good without your help so thank you for dealing with my unfamiliarity with the newer encoding procedures.
  
  Enjoy.
