AMV of the Week

This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber TehAznJulieh.  Here the song “Fallin’ For You” performed by Colbie Caillat and has been edited around scenes from the anime Toradora.  This AMV has a distracting feature of the artist and name of the song and YouTuber name constantly popping on the screen.  It would be nice to view the video without this distraction.  However, If you can get past the pop-ups, the editing of scenes is done very nicely and the song fits the AMV very well.   Colbie Caillat has a nice voice and the song has a great beat and hook to it.  You almost can’t help by like the song.  You can view the AMV below or look for it on YouTube under “AMV[Toradora] Falling For You”:
