AMV Spotlight of the Week

This week we get a look at “bat21wae” AMV.  The video takes the song “I Get Knocked Down” performed by Tubthumping and edits scenes from Eureka Seven around it.  The scenes that are picked work with the lyrics and the transitions are smooth.  The only thing negative about this video is that it has subtitles are the button and the location number in the top left hand corner of the video.  If these would have been edited out the AMV would be so much better.  If you can look past the subtitles and counter number this is a pretty good video.  You can watch it below or on YouTube under “Eureka Seven – I get knocked Down”:

AMV Spotlight of the Week

This weeks AMV Spotlight features an AMV uploaded by YouTuber “Rajiv Andrade”.  The video takes several anime shows and splices them together to fit with the featured song “Spirit Never Dies” performed by Masteplan.  The AMV is an older post, but it all fits together and is so well made that it deserves to be noticed again.  The creator takes the time to have the singers voices match up with the anime characters lip sync and it is nearly flawless.  Also with the lyrics of the song the creator uses anime that has that fighting spirit and to never give up.  The editing and splicing together of multiple scenes from different anime is also very impressive and seamless in their transitions. A great job on producing this video all the way around.  You can find it on YouTube under “Spirit Never Dies Anime AMV” or check it out below:

AMV Spotlight of the Week

This weeks AMV Spotlight is on YouTuber xthehuntressx.  Xthehuntressx takes the song “Fighter” performed by Christina Aguilera and edits it around scenes from Justice League.  These cut scenes are very clean and crisp, which makes the AMV so much nicer to view.  At one point I began to wonder if xthehuntressx used Black Canary to emulate Ms. Aguilera, when Black Canary is using her sonic scream I just pictured Aguilera hit her high notes.  The one fault I have for the AMV is that it has side borders. If the video image would have fit the YouTube screen it would have been more attractive. One of the great things about this video is that you get to see a verity of DC heroes.  Some you will know and others that are less known unless you read DC Comics.  Great job xthehuntressx.  Thanks to YouTube for the video and you can find it on their site or check it out below:

AMV Spotlight of the Week

This weeks AMV Spotlight is on YouTuber SonyXLR.  SonyXLR has taken the song “She’s so High” performed by Tal Bachman and edited it around scenes from the anime Ah! My Goddess.  This is a simple song with a simple video, but sometimes that’s all you need.  Everything works well between the song and anime.  And if you are familiar with the anime you know it works really well.  This is one AMV that most people will enjoy.  You can search for it on YouTube under “Ah my goddess – She’s so high” or watch it below.
