Well, this was under bad:
"quality was bad...and u used a lot of clips from the intro..."

So, no, I guess they didn't give a reason. They all just didn't liek the intro stuff, I guess.... =\

Some openings have more action than most of the series. A good filler indeed.

Two reasons I wouldn't use openings: a lot of people have already seen the footage and if you're trying to make an AMV with a plot, it's hard to use openings because they don't have a lot of plot heavy footage.

Indeed, go for it. There is nothing wrong with using them. I just ripped the op/ed to five different animes myself for an opening bumper that I plan to append to the beginning of my future amv's... *out of breath* Anyways... yeah if it fits use it.

I don't recommend making an entire AMV out of them though unless you know someway to pull it off well.

First off, if they use "u" instead of "you" their opinion isn't worth listening to.

Did any semi-literate people complain about the OP footage?

Second, since they're clearly none too swift they may have meant too many clips from the intro - that is, if it's 90% intro they may just have gotten bored with it.

But really, I wouldn't worry that much about an opinionator who can't be bothered to string a complete sentence together.

I know, but I was just commenting it since...
-_-

Fine. I give up.
I just have no life and like posting stupid things. ¬¬

I'm just saying, don't worry because I would bet that most reviewers aren't going to give you bad reviews for using OP/ED clips.

That's all.

It wasn't intended; I have no idea where you're getting that.
