SousukexKaname AMV Idea

[Killa_hurtz]

Song - Unknown Soldier
Artist - Breaking Benjamin
Album - Phobia

Reason and idea:

Ok so I recently picked this album from Breaking Benjamin, great listen, but when I came accross this track the old noggin started stirring, and when I looked at the title, my mind was set. This song fits Sousuke Sagara to a T.

Basicially how the video would play out, is that Sousuke is on the battlefield, fighting for his life, but he can only think of how much he wants to go back to Tokyo to Kaname (which would be stressed in the chorus). It would push the message that whenever Sousuke is with Kaname, his mind is clearer and he is at peace with himself.

I get the feeling that in order to portray this video to the best of it's ability, the director would need access to not only Full Metal Panic RAW footage (no sub lines), but also good quality footage of The Second Raid, which is hard to come by now since it is licensed and torrenting sites have since deleted it from their databases. Why? Because The Second Raid portrays the intimacy of Sousuke and Kaname's relationship better than any of the other seasons.

Looking forward to working together...and even though you can't get the full effect from the song without hearing it...here are it's lyrics.

Lyrics:

Borderline,
Dead inside.
I don't mind,
Falling to pieces.
Coming in,
Violin,
Let's begin.
Feeding the sickness.
How do I simplify,
Dislocate,
The enemy is on the way.

[Chorus:]
Show me what it's like
To dream in black and white,
So I can leave this world tonight.

Full of fear,
Ever clear.
I'll be here,
Fighting forever.
Curious,
Venomous,
You'll find me
Climbing to heaven.
Never mind,
Turn back time.
You'll be fine,
I will get left behind.

[Chorus]

Hold me, I'm to tight.
Breathe the breath of life,
So I can leave this world behind.

It only hurts just once.
They're only broken bones.
Hide the hate inside.

Oh.

[Very quiet voice:]
Forever ... one
I'll be fine

[Chorus]

Hold me, I'm to tight.
Breathe the breath of life,
So I can leave this world behind.

I love how you guys always post the lyrics with your song and anime ideas. It's brilliant. You let people exactly what you want in a video by setting the parameters of the tone of the AMV in advance with such delicately intricate lyrics. They truly are wonderful, and I have every reason to understand why people want to hear them in harmony with Japanimation. It's a gorgeous concept. Truly.

Well, FMP has been licensed in america for a couple years now. There's even a dvd or two released. So I don't think editors will have a problem finding un subtitled versions of the first series. And since The Second Raid has been licensed, it would probibly be only a year or so until we see the series. But I think one could squelch by with Panic! and Panic?Fumoffu.

Well, actually, I just today managed to "acquire" the full TSR...so that would solve that problem
