  Finally, a long 3 months of editing and planning come to an end and I couldn't be more satisfied with the result. This video is a dedication to the sorrowful good-byes and tragedies that I've seen in anime over the years and I can honestly say that it took a large amount of editing and tears to complete. This AMV is very sentimental and I will admit that I got pretty depressed when watching it after finishing, so don't be suprised or embarrassed if it does strike a derpressing feeling in you. I hope that everyone that views it can sympathize with the images and music as much as I do and walk away with a much deeper outlook on anime, life, or anything else they can relate these feelings to.
  
  I chose "Hear You Me" by Jimmy Eat World because it had a strong emotional message in it. The song expresses a sad feeling of regret toward losing the ones you love. This theme fit perfectly with the ideas I had for the video and came together nicely. I feel that the songs underlying moral is to always cherish what you have because you'll never know when you lose it. The song's lyrics signify the great suffering and depression that one can get from taking others for granted and stresses that one should never leave loose ends with loved ones.
  
  As I mentioned above, the anime I used were all shows that really hit deep with me and I wanted to express the way I felt when watching them. If you hadn't noticed I am very adamant about this video and the meaning it holds. It took alot of effort and willpower to piece together and complete and I can only hope that the audience walks away with some sort of perspective after watching it. As always I will say that opinions are gratiously accepted and encouraged, but opinion or not, I hope that you enjoy the vid. Thanks!
  
  Song Lyrics (for sync-ing curiousity)
  
  There's no one in town I know
  You gave us someplace to go
  I never said thank you for that
  Thought I might get one more chance
  What would you think of me now?
  So lucky, so strong, so proud
  I never said thank you for that
  Now I'll never have a chance
  
  -(Refrain)-
  May angels lead you in
  Hear you me my friends
  On sleepless roads the sleepless go
  May angels lead you in
  
  If you were with me tonight
  I'd sing to you just one more time
  A song for the heart so big
  God wouldn't let it live
