Hmm, I loved the music, most of the effects were pretty shiny, but you had a really inconsequent use of them, it didn't really feel like reacting on some part of the music. They flowed pretty well, though, when they were there. It's really hard to get used to the change of neat 3d-motion to simple no-effect scenes, especially with this anime.
Can't say I loved it therefore, but it was still "ok".

A bit different. Very good though.

I know a friend of mine who would love this video. He's a huge Infected Mushroom fan, and he loves all of Miyazaki's films.

I loved it a lot! It left me in Awe at some points. I like lengthy videos so that was a plus! Thanks for sharin'! ^^

Simply awesome. I like the calm beginning and the strange concept, since the anime does reflect the overall melodic tune of the song very well and the effects wouldn't fit normally but somehow it's just right. The video is so different so it's finally something new and the source combo is very convincing. The Effects are nice and I like the fact that you also showed alot of scenes without eny effects so there's a nice contrast between them. And the music is terrific too ... well I guess there's nothing to complain about ...

5/5

Trippy vid, good job as always man. I think this shows how you're still evolving in the category of Acid AMVs, with the way you're incorporating AE more and more into your works. Good stuff, hope to see more from you soon!

Excellent job, although, the bars in beginning seem really out of place with the rest of the AMV, about 1:30 into it, other than that, very interesting. I think just Totoro smiling is still weirder than any effect though. A video to be sure to keep, looking forward to your next one.

Hum, that video was kind of, I would say... Hypnotizing. The approach of Totoro in this one was really different and unique, and it worked. I didn't think I could like a video like this one (ie with so much and flashy effects), but you prove me I was wrong. Good job with this one.
