I think it's the best Shugo Chara AMV I've seen (if that means anything). Unlike some of the others, I like the effects very much. Shugo Chara is a colorful anime and adding more seems consistent from my point of view.

I did not like the lip synching.

One thing I need to point out is the AMV's identity crisis. You tried to use serious scenes at times but still had those brightness/colorful effects going on, which makes me wonder whether you're trying to be serious or playful at parts. In these moments, the effects are noticeably overdone.

Good job and the world needs more Shugo Chara AMVs, especially lighthearted ones and not shipping a couple to overdone songs.

Back to the actual video:

Yep, I was pretty much pleased. Nice romance in classical style, effects pretty much in line (Shugo Chara vid can't be a vid without at least a few :> ) and overally great enjoyment.

Two things:

Logo. Logos are bad. Every logo. Unless it's a logo of TV station when you imitate that certain TV station. Or sumfin'.

You know, I wouldn't even care about the logo, if it didn't disturb the sight in few of those flashes into black/blue and back. That was very mood-breaking ;___;

And learn to encode into h264. The quality gets better while the filesize drops *DRASTICALLY*. Seriously, if now you had to have filesize over 100MB, I bet for h264 you'd get at 40-60MB with comparable, if not better filesize~
Other than that very enjoyable vid and wondering whether to give 4 or 5... in the end... hmmm... well, I'll go with five.

Hope to see more in the future :>

Liked this alot, scene selection, sync... Even the FX worked well. 5/5 :up:
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

I agree 98%

I honestly don't know why 2% was lost... it just was. Very good AMV. (I only did JUST watch it now)
