Thanks to all the people who have seen the betas and who give me opinions & advises. I know I haven't following all of them (*Kisses Warheart*), but I made a kind of mix between all the different opinions !

Well I guess you at least took some of my advice to heart. But still it seems a little random for me and the leavecolor effect could've been combined with some other effects to work out a more unique look for the video. But since the atmosphere and the sync works pretty good it's a good video.

I really enjoyed this, from the very first beta you sent me. In my opinion it has a fairly unique style in comparison to most other videos around, and it just plain works. I feel it's more of a tribute to the song and artist as opposed to the anime, and Bebop was just what was chosen to fit what you wanted lyrically.

Good editing, nice filtering, and a damn good song.

I was glad to see the video progress as you worked on it, and I'm very pleased with the final result, particular the final 10 or so seconds of the video, and the very last beat of the song ends perfectly.

9.5/10

man what's with all the good editors all releasing their stuff around the same time?
can't all be because of acen...

so, about the video: great tribute, I especially enjoyed your feeling for color, the
way you added that low saturated yellowish tone to a lot of scenes really was the
perfect choice for a Johnny Cash song. And man, I still don't know how to do those
flawless smooth zoom transitions but I keep seeing them in more and more videos
and I love them ._.

So, great video, in my opinion it could've even run a bit longer

Nice job DK.

You have given a particular style in your video, "Folk" atmosphere and I like it. Your editing is easy and effective.

I enjoy it
