baccano and soul eater tracks were my faves, overall it wasn't as good as I was expecting but I still enjoyed it :up: Also liked the title of the vid being thrown in the footage of the tracks, gave it a more shounen-y feel.

Jay (paraphrased): Hey, since the ladies are making an all-girls MEP lets make a quick, male-oriented, action video. I already have the song picked out. When you are selecting your source try to pick an anime focusing on male character(s) that has silly action.

Me: First things to come to mind are Memories: Stink Bomb, Mind Game, and TTGL. Haven't seen and don't have the last one and I've always been disappointed that an anime like Mind Game has been used so little in AMVs (Only 10 videos now that this is released). I'll use Mind Game.

I can't speak for everyone in the project, but that was my general thought process. It fit the theme, so I went with it. Jay approached everyone else in the project with the same premise and they chose their sources accordingly. If there was any attempt to imitate another project, it was limited to the previous ROS projects and the same-gender aspect of ROStrogen.
That's actually pretty much what I did too. Baccano! is a fucking awesome anime and is sadly underused. :(

Otherwise, :up:
No need to apologize, could you elaborate? And it's cool, opinions don't offend me. :up:
I just couldn't follow it, way too random for me. It seemed like the rest of the tracks, even if they weren't exactly linear, had something cohesive keeping them together.
Far less internal sync than the others.
The scenes near the beginning, the transformations, too slow.
The scenes near the end, not only slow, but slowmo, didn't feel right at all.
Then there was the middle with a ton of fast cuts, which were fine (except for the randomness) but it didn't gel with the rest of the track... kinda made me wonder exactly what you were going for.

Funny trivia:
Time taken for intro+tracks: a couple weeks at most
Time taken for the credits: about one month or so
Tracks are fine, credits are incomplete. GJ man. :up:
