Well it's only a day away and I made the finals for Anime Mid Atlantic and Anime Next. They will be showing at AMA Fighting For Your Love and Pain of War. At Anime Next they will be showing Pain of War. So it'll be interesting to see if I bring home any prizes. I'll be seeing Pain of War at AMA and this will give me some insight on how the crowd will react to it and what may await me at Otakon. Well wish me luck. I'll chat some more soon.
Also as for my TOP 10 AMV Countdown that will be back up shortly. There is something I will talk about in there for the reason why I haven't been around much.

Nice. I wish you and everyone else who made the cuts the best. I made the cut for AnimeNext and I think I might have made it for Anime Mid-Atlantic too if not it was more likely because I did something wrong with the format.
I would go to the conventions but I can't afford it right now. Maybe I'll go to one later.
I sent the same video to both conventions but I don't expect to win but I'm glad I made it to the show.

I saw your video in the finals. Your video looked nice up on the big screen. It got a nice response. Well they'll be posting the full results soon and I'll let you know what they are.

Thanks.
I heard in AnimeNext it also went well. I was told people were dancing to the song outside of the showing room.
I actually got claps.

Thanks. I did better than I thought in Drama/Romance but as for Pain of War I'm disappointed with it that it finished 8th. I thought it would have done better. But as Joykiller has said the other 2 Kenshin videos that were played before mine (1 in Romance, and the other one in Action) took away from my video. Eventhough it was a great vid.
Oh well, I hope I make the Otakon finals. I'm trying for my 2nd straight year.

I'm still waiting for the full results of the action category for Anime Next I know I didn't finish 1st or one of the 3 Honorable mentions so that leaves 5th-8th Place.

I more likely got last place again but thats fine with me because the other drama videos were good. I read people were singing along with the song. Did that really happen?  That's interesting to know. |

The song does get stuck in your head. I remember myself singing a little bit to myself the second time it came on. Anyway you did fine and I was suprised it didn't do better.
