aside from that, this has the exact same issue as your kenshin video, editing just doesn't fit the song. Unlike last time, though, you picked an anime that went with it a little more and that actually helped a lot and saved it from being really boring, this time it just had nothing special in it and was pretty lackluster. doesn't feel like much effort was put into it i guess. the editing did pick up but not by much. i think you just need to choose songs that fit your style more or pick up the tempo with the sync.
We just differ in editing taste. You have a different take on how things are done, and just fail to see it being done differently.
If the concept didn't come off as clear to you, then it does not necessarily mean that it was just thrown in there for the sake of having a theme. As far as sync is concerned, it's all there, that is, if you watch it carefully. I'm a little confused since it appears your definition of sync is if I change the clips on every single beat, or throw flashes in there? Because if you watch it, you'll find that it is synced with the song.
As with any of my work, I mostly sync to movement, or anything I can sync with in each clip. There are several ways of syncing something, not just one. Same with slayer, I did sync to almost everything with the song. The only things left out were few random sounds in the bg I didn't find necessary syncing with. Like I said, we just differ in how editing is done. You find something that isn't sync to your liking boring and lackluster, but that doesn't mean it isn't done properly. It just means it isn't done to your liking, and there isn't much I can do about that.
