[eyevocal]

Hello, all. I am very sorry for the wait; decompression, real life, helping a friend pack up 12 years of life to move out of province, all that other fun stuff. Here is what played at the N2U 2013 AMV Contest. If anybody can correct/update me on links, I would appreciate it. After the standard content disclaimer:

Plot spoilers; brief strobing effects; good and bad music (matter of opinion); classic BFORs; badass cars; supernatural beings (woooo); gas-powered squirrels; bloody traditional board games; blood–full stop; jazz-handed djinns; baka love; za planes!; girls x girls x guys; carnage; carnality; hardcore magical girls; false idolatry; cross-species breeding; interesting apathy; some of the N2U judges' brain cells.

Warrior Idol and No Idol Entertainment.

Both of them got played. For the first time, due to time constraints, I had to drop a few entries from the final showing. I'll be acknowledging them in the full post, when I'm able to finish it.
