Pretty awesome, liked better than In Terminis as well....felt like it had more of an emotional impact. Great!

Only curious what the relationship between the two characters is? lovers, sisters, best friends? i assume it's intended to be left to the interpretation of the viewer?

Damn that was very impressive. The first few seconds had me confused for a little ( I didn't read the description, sorry lol)....I caught on. Dynamic vid. Good stuff.

That was nicely done. Crossovers for the win.

Not entirely sure if I got the story right. It was the Toradora chick who had died afterall, no? I liked the twist. It nicely demonstrates the importance of form rather than content. The shift in perspective is purely formal but precisely as such quite powerful. Nonetheless, I had some problems with the story. I just didn't really feel it. Perhaps it felt too simple? The narrative was too easily exhausted. Although I'm sure you spend a lot of thought on those details.

I didn't like the song

But I can appreciate it how over-the-top melodramatic the amv is. That is to say, it was shamelessly cheesy. So nice mood build-up there

Very nice crossover!
I loved it and then we also have a nice song

Didnt like the song, but nice work and story, solid crossover.

Firstly I couldn't stand watching it because of the song. But then I made myself to and I'm gonna tell you it was awesome. That drama near the end was really intense

And you've done some excellent job with crossovering. I think some colour effects were a bit overdone though. When I see each screenshot separately, it's pretty but with this whole dynamism it becomes kinda dirty and chaotic.

I do not know why, "all" use the same style of umika with crossover

Here I must disagree, it's totally K&G style. They might be similar but this video is as much their style as possible, at least in my opinion.
Anyway, great job! Surely it's one of the best releases this year

Everybody associates crossovers with Umika so my wild guess is that when there's anything like darkened/blurred clips in a crossover amv people will go "OMG! Umika rip-off!"

I love how you did this it was very beautiful and the song was well fitted for this type of story.
