Good:

1) Concept - I think the song really fit the characters and the aspects of their relationship you were trying to portray. This was easy to get, and the emotion was there. Furtheremore, I've yet to see a serious attempt at a Misato/Kaji romance video, so originality is high.

Bad:

1) Wrong aspect ratio. Just because the vob is at 720x480 doesn't mean your video should be. It needs to be 4:3, or 640x480.

2) Compression was just horrible. I don't know if it was your source or your export, but it was bad.

3) Not cropped. You had the black frame lines left that you need to crop in pre-processing.

4) Interlacing. Another thing you need to fix via filters in pre-processing.

5) Synch was just slow.... I know the song is slow, but it wasn't that slow. You need to be aware of the beats so that can make sure to change with its flow.

6) Irrelevent scenes. Most of your sceenes were appropriate, some though. They were too happy, or they didn't focus on the Misato/Kaji relationship... In general, they were just bad choices.

Considering concept, I'd say this video is slightly above average, even though the video quality is horrible. Good first video. Not outstanding. Not great. But good.

I thought the story was good, I see alot of people use still frames or pics, I preffer to see movement of some kind, but other than that I thought it was a sad and good story and went well with the song
