I know a couple of weeks have slipped by that I didn’t get to our AMV Spotlight. This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber “garblehose”. “Garblehose” takes the song “Secret Agent Man” performed by Johnny Rivers and edits it to scenes from the FX show Archer. If you remember we did a review on Archer on Episode 17 of ComicPop Library podcast, so you knew we had to do an AMV of Archer eventually. The selected scenes fit the lyrics of the song really well and the cuts are very clean. Great job on this AMV “garblehose”. Be warned that this is a mature AMV and is not appropriate for all audiences, it contains violence and partial nudity. You can check out the AMV below or on YouTube under “Archer – Secret agent man”:

AMV Spotlight of the
This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber potakun. Potakun takes the song “Boom, Boom, Pow” performed by The Black Eyed Peas and edits it to a variety of anime. The clips are smoothly edited together and potakun has matched up lyrics of the song with some of the characters speaking actions within the clips. The sink is pretty good and makes the video funner to watch when the characters appear as if they are singing the song. Great job potakun you can find the AMV on YouTube under “Boom, Boom, Boom! AMV (Boom Boom Pow – Blackeyed Peas)” or you can check it out here:
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.
AMV of the Week
This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber xxDxxMxx. This YouTuber takes the song “Shake It!” performed by Metro Station and edits in several scenes from a variety of anime. The cuts are quick cuts that are to the beat of the song. Because of this there are a lot of quick flashes, so if you are prone to seizures this might not be the AMV for you. It is an older AMV, but I just liked the feel good beat of the song and how the cuts keep the rhythm of the music. It’s worth seeing again. Great job xxDxxMxx. You can check out the AMV on YouTube under “Shake It!” or watch it below:
AMV of the Week
This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber DelugeOfRoses. In this AMV the song “Walking on Sunshine” performed by Jump 5 is put to images from Fruits Basket. This AMV caught my eye because we are in the middle of Spring and we have all this sunshine. The editing is done nicely and cleanly. There is no attempt to match words of the song to the anime characters mouths, it is just a pure video. They ending is a little abrupt and should have been played out through the fade, I can forgive it that little misstep. Also with this upbeat song of “Walking on Sunshine” fits the character Tohru Honda’s perfectly with her upbeat attitude of life, even with her sad past. Good job DelugeOfRoses. Check out the AMV on YouTube under “Fruits Basket – Walking on Sunshine” or watch it below:
AMV of the Week
This weeks AMV comes from YouTuber ShizukaTeyova. The song “Move Along”, performed by The All-American Rejects is edited around scenes from Big Windup! This one is in here since we are right in the thick of things for Baseball season. However, the song is a great song and the editing that ShizukaTeyova did for the AMV is nice and clean. It was posted last May and doesn’t have very many views, but it is one that is worth checking out. Watch it below or on YouTube under “Big Windup! AMV-Move Along”. Great job ShizukaTeyova.
