OK, so basically this is what happened - on morning I woke up and realized I don't feel any need to watch anime any more. You know, like when they always say 'go get a life' - and I did. And damn, it didn't kill me ;].Seriously thought, let's call it a summer holiday, cause I can bet I will be able to come back by the end of September. As for now I can just apologize for cutting the reviews

The hardcore sh*t continues also this weekend, with this amazing, fast paced beat'em up music video. I would lie if I said I don't like Tenjou Tenge. In fact, this is one of my favourite titles, both as an anime and manga. There should be no sense in this liking, as some may say the plot is kind

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: Kevin CaldwellIMHO it's very hard to make a good Neon Genesis Evangelion music video. It's an anime with attitude - you either love it or hate it. This naturally is inherited by the AMV, what's more, it is a delicate work to balance the video. It can't be too sweet, nor too hardcore. It can't be too funny, nor too serious. Because it was NGE

Update(2): Apparently they had a DNS issue and for some people (including me) Blip.tv was unavailable, while it was working fine for others. They claim it won't happen again. I do hope so.Update: The provider is up again and running. Feel free to view the AMVs, they should load smoothly now. I don't yet know what happened, maybe they'll release some info later.

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: Nostromo_vxIt's difficult to apply good special effects onto an AMV. Most of the times they distract from the main footage, seem a bit on top and rather unnecessary. However with today's case it's completely different - the effects are not only amazing, but perfectly inserted into the clip. The overlays of the GitS interface suit well,

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: Nightowl, gambittLet us calm down a bit. This particular AMV is an interesting one. You won't find much action here, nor much excitement, yet it gets into to the very deepest parts of you. Each and every second of this video is an artistic masterpiece combined of several key factors. Firstly, the choice of the music is perfect, the vocal

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: Der KommissarToday we try it the hardcore way. You know all these 'Nothing Else Matters' and 'Unforgiven's that were around in great quantities and probably will come in even bigger numbers in the future. I am personally a bit sick with these ballads, hence I felt a bit relieved to see and hear this video. Fast-paced is not a good word here

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: Sierra LornaNow this is an absolute killer. What would you say about taking a normal music video and replacing each human character with an anime one? Words just cannot describe what the author has achieved. Compare it with the original Elvis vs. JXL music video that you can find here, and be amazed. Be really amazed 'cause you don't see such

Maybe you have noticed earlier, I haven't until now (thanks Muz for the point out) that the very first AMV I reviewed was removed from YouTube with a nice notice ' This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by TV TOKYO Corporation'. Reuters has a story on the matter. Copyright claims again... yeah, right.I find it quite ridiculous as such clips generally create a huge hype

Not that I don't like 'Red Fraction', but maybe, just maybe the true rock is more proper? Putting aside that Thrice ain't so proper really, and some of them look emo too... However, just watch the intro. Just how

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: BakadeshiJust like I said yesterday, another Melancholy AMV. But it's actually not melancholy at all. It's 'fast paced', as the author suggests. And it really is. The performance of the original song, 'God Knows', was turned into a live TV-like feed with a perfect lip and beat syncing that occasionally interrupts the main show. Which has a

OLink: video information (animemusicvideos.org)Author: silver_moonI have stumbled upon this one while browsing and it was an insta-love. It's perfect as usual but moreover perfect in the not so obvious department of choice and taste. 'Cause you see, the author's choice of the song is exactly what you have always wanted but could not ask yourself. And then, to make things even better, the tasteful

And what's the worse I can describe it in one word - a.m.a.z.i.n.g ! But it's a review so I'll spill some more words.You won't find any fancy special movie maker after effects here.

But but, don't worry, 'cause you won't find any boring stuff here, I hope.Welcome again to the AMV Weekend Blog that is about not so ordinary anime music videos. Actually - not ordinary at all. Because the best. At least that's what I think of them. And if you disagree, please take your
