Re: One Way Journey
Didn't really dig it. I can't help but feel a song like this should have some sort of story if used, and it looks like you may have been going for a story, but other than you having Takuya shoot Hiroki [Think I got their names right] I don't really see much of anything going on. On top of that I think the editing could've been a little less random. You didn't really seem to be timing your cuts to anything specific, and there were a lot of opportunities that I think you missed.

Re: One Way Journey
Like Osnar said: Simpel and clean. I like it.
I was a bit confoused of the ending part. Do I need to watch the anime to get why you change the amv style/mood/whaterver to those two guys and theire conflict?
Maybe... I didn´t saw the anime, but let´s just say "maybe"
... maybe there would´ve been a way to build up more drama at the end for this conflict. I mean I was fully relaxed and had a melancholic (and completly different mood) when the conflict started. That might was a bit too fast for me 
Anyway: It´s good. I like it, because it has atmosphere and in my opinion no real flaws.
@Arishinome:
The editing might was random, but for me it was just alright, because it saved the mood and atmosphere of the music/image combination.

Disagree. Well I saw a lot of scenes I´ve never seen before in amvs with this anime, but overall it is in one way similar to all the other Shinkai vids: They completly build on the special style of those animes to create a mood/atmosphere or just to make them look special. (I call them "pretty pictures amvs...".)Also that is not a normal video with this Anime, so try it ^_-
You can find me on YT under "Bauzi514". Subscribe to never miss my AMV releases.

Re: One Way Journey
Nice and different, but holds practically no replay value for me.

Nice concept with good execution. My only big complaint is about audio quality -your sources don't seem good, especially there is a lot of hiss around the gunshot. Other than that, nice video.
3.75/5
