OK here it goes; I've been a huge fan of anime and AMVs for years now but I've never had the means to create my own until recently, so the easy parts over (insert uneasy sigh). Now the hard part is creating a decent AMV for the community to enjoy. Personally I felt the project turned out ok for my first time. However my own opinions have no real play in deciding if it's good or not YOU the viewer decide if it's good or not so please rate and comment, thanks. Anime - Neon Genesis Evangelion Artist - Within Temptation Song - The Truth Beneath The Rose OP & ED Music - Weezer - Only In Dreams DISCLAMER: This AMV is purely fanmade and is in no way associated with the creators of the anime or the bands.

Jun 14, 2008 - hay what exactly is happening in the scaens u used and what is the anime about?
MS06FZHELM Says:
Jun 14, 2008 - Thank you positive feedback is always appreciated.
MS06FZHELM Says:
Jun 14, 2008 - In its simpler form Eva is about a boy Shinji who is called upon by his father to defend the earth from invading entities called angels. The deeper aspect of the show touched upon acceptance, abandonment, fulfillment and purpose just to name a few. I thought the song really captured Shinji's indecision when it came to fighting for his father and the lies that NERV put forth about the Eva units (core=lies/rose=lies).
MS06FZHELM Says:
Jun 14, 2008 - I tried to add as many clips of Shinji's indecision with his combat scenes and it slowly transitions to the darkness taking over with Rei and mixed with vague reference to the group's acceptance of love. Asuka's breakdown was the full rejection of lies and the last scene with Tiffany Grants masterful voice acting was a declaration to stop the violence. (Whew that was a lot I hope I didn't sound too pretentious)

Jun 24, 2008 - no, ur answer was perfect for me. thank u for the detail =) now heres another question, who are the charicters in this anime and what r they supost to do because i'v never watch it and the first time i saw this vid was the first time i had ever herd about this anime.(hope i didnt talked to much in that one)
MS06FZHELM Says:
Jun 25, 2008 - Forgive me if my analysis contains any spoilers I'll try to be vague as to not ruin for you. The plot to the show is essentially what I said before kids pilot mechs to defend the earth. Gendo is the leader of NERV the organization that "defends" earth from the invading monsters known angels. After most of humanity was killed during the event known as Second Impact 15 years earlier NERV is the only thing standing in the way of humanities total destruction.

Jun 25, 2008 - The three main children are Shinji Ikari pilot of Eva Unit 01, Rei Ayanami (girl with blue hair) pilot of Unit 00, and Asuka Langley Soryu (red haired girl) pilot of Unit 02. Shinji is the main character of NGE his mother Yui died while he was a small child and his father Gendo sent him to live with relatives. Now years later Shinji's father calls upon him to pilot the giant "robot" Evangelion.
MS06FZHELM Says:
Jun 25, 2008 - Throughout the show he constantly debates his reasons for piloting, which boils down to a need to feel useful specifically to his father, the best way to describe him is a coward who's constantly depressed. Rei is even hard to describe she's quiet, keeps to herself and rarely displays emotion. I feel revealing more than that she's very important to the plot would be giving away too much.
MS06FZHELM Says:
Jun 25, 2008 - Lastly my favorite character Asuka. As a child Asuka was designated the pilot of Unit 02 the same year her mother Kyoko, who worked on the Eva Project, committed suicide. The death of Asuka's mother left her jaded and secretly in pain, a lot of her episodes deal with that pain and her need to prove herself to her mother. On the outside though she's rude, outspoken, and at times obnoxious but she's secretly a nice person (I think?.

Jun 25, 2008 - o_O OMG! I never thought it'd take 4 posts I guess I just lack Summarizing skillz (damn MS Word lol).But realy I hope that helped, I only covered the real "main" chars because noting all the important ones would become long and boring (well even more so than it already is lqtm sigh).

Jul 26, 2008 - Very good, your style of Music and Video seems to focus more on summary and emotions... I try to find a way to make every part of my videos to make sense or the lyrics to relate or have meaning which is also what you did in this AMV but it seemed to show more emotion from it than anything else Really well done!

Aug 16, 2008 - This is a realy nice AMV. And I also like mechs. I have been looking for some new anime to watch, and I think I have found one.

Sep 1, 2008 - Did you download these episodes/clips from the internet or did you rip them off a DVD you bought? And if you got them from the internet, how did you get them to look this good?
MS06FZHELM Says:
Sep 1, 2008 - I get all the material from my DVDs. Far less subtitles that way.
