I couldnt get into it at the beginning, but you really had me by the end. I like the whole theme of death, destruction and despair you got going on here. It contrasts well with the song in a way that makes it so the song is a prayer for the characters in the video to get them through all the chaos around them.

I think the reason that i couldnt get into the beginning all that much is because, i feel like the scenes are a little less direct in how the relate to each other. I feel the beginning serves as an introduction to all the sources that we will see in the video, but not the despair that each character holds.

I think for some anime, you introduced their troubles well, like with FMA, we get shots of the grave and soldiers lined up in battle, but akira, we get less of that. We see that he is having tests conducted on him, but if we hadnt seen the anime, we wouldnt know that the other people were the ones conducting those tests on him. Maybe, you should have focused on tests being conducted on him and the life of poverty that he lived and not have switched over to the generals and other characters. It was a little confusing to me. In FMA, you do the same with a few extra clips of some of the villains. In context of the the anime, it makes sense, but when you put it next to other anime in this video, it's hard to make that connection.

What works well for the rest of the video, is that we can see the connection between the different anime, because the emotions the characters is more similar, along with the chaos and violence that they are facing.

As for the editing, I like how the editing builds up along with the song. The beginning feels a little awkward and by the end you find the right pacing. You really by the middle, i was into the video and the ending was just a good finale.

Overall, I enjoy this quite a bit. It's one of the better multianime videos I've seen this year. I am a little curious as to what was going through your mind when you were making this because there is quite a bit of contrast between the beginning and the rest of the video.

4/5 :up:

EDIT:
Sorry for taking so long to comment :uhoh:
