So, after lots and lots of fighting with Windows Movie Maker (seriously, what a pile of shit) and breaking this into three pieces and sewing them all back together just to get the damned thing to save...I do believe I have finished this...this...this...thing. HA. AHAHAHAHAHA. I'd say "LIEK A BAWS" but, uh, there was far too much crying and cursing involved and while I may enjoy hyperbole, I'm just not good with lying...
ANYWAY. Please to enjoy. Please to ignore mistakes (I'm sorry I forgot to change the first transition, Rieke - please don't kill me /cowers) - hopefully there aren't too many (I am going to need many, MANY cocktails to be convinced of fixing them) O_o
(Vimeo kind of makes things laggy, which makes me a sad panda, but it's free and probably eats up less bandwidth this way, so what can you do. I have a non-laggy, non-streaming version for anyone who wants/needs it here:

The scene where the singing starts and Nezumi looks up at Sion screaming his head off still gives me goosebumps. As does the scene where he's throwing away the armlet. That one is amazing, as well.
AND BEEJESUS IS THE BEST, WEIRDEST THING. Right after they punched happiness into each other's faces. *snickering at that, every damn time*
(No killing will happen tonight. But, you know, in case you again want someone to tell you to replace all of your transitions, TALK TO ME! :Db)

SO THIS MADE ME FLAIL OVER NEZUMI AND SION AND NO.6 ALL OVER AGAIN. I LOVE THE PACING OF IT AND NOW I'M KIND OF CRAVING POST-SERIES NO.6 FIC.
GOSH I WONDER WHO MIGHT BE WRITING SOME. o___o

Date: 2012-02-06 03:47 pm (UTC)(I don't know...it took a loooooong time O_____o I kind of want to make one for Acid Tokyo though >.> We shall see. It would have to be a running project - this one I didn't want to stop working on until it was DONE and I nearly drove myself batty. Alternatively, I have all this fucking No.6 footage already downloaded, so if you have a song you want an AMV to, let me know and it can be your birthday present or something XD)
I HAVE NO IDEA WHO COULD BE DOING THAT.

Date: 2012-02-06 09:33 pm (UTC)YOU MUST MAKE ONE FOR ACID TOKYOOOOOO o___o
(Ahahaha, the wonders of video editing. IT IS BATTY-DRIVING AND ADDICTIVE AT THE SAME TIME OK. XDDD)

/IS AMAZINGLY SUBTLE AND UNSELFISH ALL AT ONCE
THERE IS NO ROOM IN THE FAIL CORNER. IT IS ALL MINE. I GUESS THAT MEANS FIC WILL BE HAPPENING. :DDDD

Date: 2012-02-06 09:37 pm (UTC)(God, it IS. HOW CAN SOMETHING BE SO INSANITY-INDUCING AND FUN AT THE SAME TIME? IT'S LIKE MARRIAGE.)
OKAY. YOU PICK A SONG AND A SERIES AND I WILL MAKE YOU A BIRTHDAY AMV. I DON'T KNOW WHEN YOUR BIRTHDAY IS BUT THAT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER BECAUSE YOU WILL GET IT WHEN I AM DONE EITHER WAY XDDDDD
Subtle like bull. OR. Unsubtle like fly. TAKE YOUR PICK OF BAD SIMILIES. I HAVE MANY OF THEM TO TOSS AROUND.
/wedges butt in fail corner. ROOM FOR ONE MORE.

OMFG YOU WILL MAKE ONE???? *TACKLEGLOMPS* AMANDA! I CAN'T EVEN! <333
IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT MAKING AN ACID TOKYO ONE THAT WOULD MAKE ME INSANELY HAPPY. BUT YOU SHOULD CHOOSE THE SONG, BECAUSE I LIKE BOTH SURPRISES AND THE THINGS YOU MAKE OK. :DDD
/SPRAWLS INCREDIBLY SUBTLY IN FAIL CORNER OH LOOK THERE'S NO ROOM!

Date: 2012-02-07 04:49 am (UTC)I liked the clips you picked and the flow was good. I didn't notice any glaring or subtle errors for the matter. <3
Soooo, when will you do another? You know G7 is seriously deficient in MMV's.

Date: 2012-02-07 04:41 pm (UTC)MANDA IT'S GORGEOUS. IT'S TOTALLY GORGEOUS.
Seriously, I'm all in love with this video and in love with Nezumi and Shion all over again right now. I lurve it a LOT. It was honestly really well done, so remember that all the crying and cursing was not in vain. You made a PRETTY with it.
Although I was LOLing so hard about them punching each other on the line about happiness, and then you put beejesus at the end and ALL I COULD THINK ABOUT WAS SPERM. See what you've done? XD

Date: 2012-02-07 08:02 pm (UTC)I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKE IT I CAN'T EVEN
WHEEEEEEEEE
I...uh...actually kind of want to make another one >.> The crying and the cursing somehow did not outweigh the fact that I kind of like video editing (with a program that does most of the hard bits for me, natch). I think I will do Acid Tokyo next...to Set Fire to the Rain...because I have a sick sense of humor apparently XD
I was...um...laughing pretty hard at them punching each other too. I'm not gonna lie, it was a big part of why I used that song >.> AND THE BEEJESUS APPEARANCE WAS WHAT SPARKED THE DISCUSSION OF SPERM IN THE FIRST PLACE. AHAHAHA I HAVE INFECTED THE WORLD. I HAVE DONE GREAT THINGS.

Date: 2012-02-07 04:54 pm (UTC)Your hard work really shows; I'm glad you stuck with it through all the "asdfhjkhhgfdsaadjkkkg" and crying etc., because this is gorgeous. I wish I had the perseverance to make an AMV, but I would probably throw my laptop out of the window very early in the creative process XD
Ah, my love for No. 6 is rekindled once more! The punches of LOVE!
ALSO BEEJESUS <3333

Date: 2012-02-07 08:09 pm (UTC)You know, the actual editing part wasn't all that hard and was actually a lot of fun. It just took FOREVER because you have to constantly rewatch the last couple of second to make sure everything is coordinated with the music. So if you're able to work on little bits and pieces here and there, I can see it being a fun hobby. (My problem is that once I start on something, I get fixated and CANNOT STOP TILL IT'S DONE GODDAMNIT. Thus why I spent three 15 hour days staring at my computer screen and willing the damned song to be shorter XDDDD) The problems I had actually started once I was done piecing it all together - WMM did NOT want to save it as an .avi >:E It was too big and complicated apparently...I used really high quality files to make it (this...seemed like the obvious thing to do, but apparently Microsoft disagrees) and I literally had to break it into three pieces, save them as very small files, and then put the smaller files back together again just to get the damned thing to save as one. /KILLS IT DED
HURRAY - LOVE FOR NO.6 SHOULD NEVER DIE. (At least, mine hasn't and I am always looking for co-conspirators >.>) LONG LIVE THE PUNCHES OF LOVE. I'm honestly happy that everyone seems to like that part XD it's my favorite...
BEEJESUS DEMANDS A SACRIFICE OF SPERM. DO NOT KEEP HER WAITING.

Date: 2012-02-09 11:23 am (UTC)Yeah I just found some translations of the novel recently, after reading what's out of the manga, so I'm catching up with that. (*winks in a conspiratorial sort of way*) I may have to go watch the anime through again, because it's such a nice short piece of awesome. THE PUNCHES OF LOVE ARE THE BEST PART
/IS SCARED OF BEEJESUS AND YET HAS NO SPERM TO GIVE OAO/
