You know I'm pretty mad at you. This is the type of video that I want to make, down the concept, the music, and the anime used. In fact, I'm pretty jealous that you could pull up such a great feat.
How I felt about this AMV was that it took the best moments of each anime, emotional scenes too, and weave them together with a perfect song with extraordinary lyrical sync. I've watched my fair share of AMVs and I've come to be indifferent with those using lots of anime. But this one will finally convert me, because what it did was simply recalled the good memories I had watching those anime, and I got touchy watching it. And that's what makes it a great anime. So I cannot rate you on the technical aspects of this video. The blue tint was refreshing and appropriate, and that's all I'll say. I would put this as probably the best (or at least my favorite top 3) AMV created this year.
But my comments are not without bias. Rarely have I watched a multiple anime AMV where I know most of the anime, which helps. I didn't resonate with Shinzo's AMV because I loved the original version of Fireflies and I thought the remix took away its magic. You, my friend, created a great AMV using many of my favorite anime and a song I really like. And I appreciate it very much. *saved*
4/5 from me

Re: ♥ Wishes to the fireflies ♥
Whatttt a late reply! So sorry, the last two weeks were terrible!
@KholdStare88, I'm so glad you liked it! But a little bit scared on the hate part eheh Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I feel the same way about the use of multiple animes, but that was my challenge here. I also prefer the original music instead of the remix one, I think it takes all the magic away imo.
@pink haze, ahah glad you liked it. And yes I love the way instruments are used on the original video so ofc I had to bring that to this one
