Congratulations on the win!
You must've put a lot of work into creating this AMV. However, this doesn't really change the fact that I couldn't really get into it. All I saw were effects with glimpses of anime inbetween... This was for me all show and no substance. Sorry.

Loved this video.
Unlike some of the people here, I enjoyed the song choice (lol this was my favorite song from Day of Reckoning... second only to Firefly)

The most stylish vid I've ever seen. "M@D-like" features are truly impressive, and the idea itself is very refreshing. Great job!

i like the idea and the choise of chars, most of them is one of my favorite, but it has little re-view for me :)
Even if the morrow is barren of promises, nothing shall forstall my return.

To become the dew that quenches the land, To spare the sands, the seas, the skies, I offer thee this silent sacrifice.

I'm usuall pretty harsh and objecive as for judging this type of all pimp-effects and "Hi guys, look what I can do in After Effects" videos. And this one does it without any shame, I could hate you for it.

But I don't. I've seen many videos this year which use things in them I usually hate, but they used them in a way that fits the whole theme of the video and just works well with it. This is one of them. The whole Need For Speed or Streetracing theme is all about being all pimpy, trying to be the coolest, "Here is my ride, look how awesome I am" type of thing. And for that reason, it worked, and I enjoyed it. All the effects looked like you were all excited about finding new things in AE and slapped together stuff from a bunch of tutorials, but it was fine, just because of the theme you were going with.

I'll still nag that you could've used more actual cars and racing in there, since I'm a big motorsports fan and liked the NfS games up to Carbon. Alot of the first half felt like you were filling space because you were afraid that else there won't be enough anime in there...

Overall, :up:
