AMV

I’m your little butterfly.

Anime Music Videos

Ok, maybe I’m not your little butterfly. It’s from a song. That song keeps running through my head, thanks to my g/f. She found a really good Samurai Champloo AMV and has been playing it a lot. I didn’t really have anything else I needed to write about today so I thought I’d share it. By share it I mean spread the infection to as many people as possible.

If you’re at work when you read this crank up the volume and bug everyone around you.

Anime: Samurai Champloo
Song: Butterfly


AMVs are like potato chips, you can’t have just one. Here’s another one that’ll get stuck in your head. The song is kind of similar to the butterfly song above. It’s the opening to Ouran High School Host Club with a different song. It’s kind of freaky the way the song and the opening sync up. I’ve heard that The Wizard of Oz syncs up with the Pink Floyd album Dark Side of the Moon. I haven’t tried that, but I’d imagine it would be something like this.

Take a look and see if you agree.

Anime: Ouran High School Host Club
Song: Bumblebee


Just to give you an idea of how well it fits, here’s the real opening to Ouran High School Host Club.

Ouran High School Host Club Clean Opening


The more AMVs I see the more I want to try making one. Know of any really good video editing software that’s free to download? I don’t mean warez, I’m looking for freeware. You know, something legal.

Have you made any AMVs? Do you have any suggestions or tips on making them?

Anime and comedy, together in AMV Comedians.

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

I was looking at AMVs on Youtube and came across some pretty good stuff. These stand out because they aren’t set to music. These videos are set to stand up comedy. There are several more, but I picked my favorite AMVs. Not necessarily my favorite comedians, but these are funny.

The anime used is mostly Naruto, though there are others. If you enjoy these I’d highly recommend checking out the rest of them on Youtube.

Comedians posted.

  • Dave Chappelle
  • Mitch Hedberg
  • (Ok, so he is one of my favorite comedians.)

  • Dane Cook
  • Pablo Francisco

Naruto AMVs.

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

In honor of the Naruto Hundo, which I thoroughly enjoyed last weekend, I thought I’d post some AMVs featuring Naruto. Ok, it’s only partially because of the Hundo. My girlfriend was watching a bunch of AMVs on youtube and I saw some I really liked, so I got her to bookmark ‘em for me. Now you can get a glimpse of how awesome it is to be me with such a great girlfriend. Yay!

Ever wonder what it’s like to be a real ninja? Just watch this one and find out.

Probably the best video containing Sifl and Olly. That’s including The Sifl and Olly Show. Their take on what ninjas are like.

A great Naruto AMV made up of lots of very short snippets.

Cool song from a band who’s singer looks like Naruto, The Offspring.

7 Great AMVs.

Monday, August 13th, 2007

I thought I’d share some of my favorite AMVs from Youtube with you today. I really should add a category for these. I’ve really been getting into ‘em lately.

Best 80s mashup.
This is one of my favorites. It’s very close to perfect.

Best use of a single anime.
I love this one. It takes Bleach and really tells the story of the song. Great song too.

Most satirical use of The Vapors song Turning Japanese
Turning Japanese is used in a lot of AMVs. I like this one because of the show used. This version of Teen Titans is very heavily influenced by anime.

Best otaku culture AMV. (missed cosplayers though)
I like this one because of the range of visuals used. They don’t always work perfectly with the song though.

Best mod to someone else’s AMV.
I’m sure the original is an awesome AMV. I know this one is.

Most misattributed song on YouTube.
It’s not a Weird Al song. He even says so on his MySpace page.

Most accurate AMV.
This one is by Weird Al. Freaky accurate song. Don’t believe me? Check out Astrology Explored. I’m a Capricorn BTW.
