Hi anyone out there reading this. Quick update to say as of the New Year I will be moving this blog over to Dreamwidth, which you’ll be able to read here: https://katranat.dreamwidth.org/ I had a good run on WordPress, but ultimately I never really got comfortable with the format here. I’m also going to take […]

This post is only loosely AMV related and will mostly serve as a record for myself cause I think this stuff is neat. YouTube has been my main go to place for AMV watching since I first found the website way back in 2005. Sure I’ve used other websites; animemusicvideos.org, Vimeo etc. however YouTube has […]

Happy Canada Day everyone!It’s also the middle point of the year, so I thought it would be a good time to post this. A couple months ago I was watching my back catalogue of liked AMV’s on YouTube and I realised there are a number of AMV’s I found on Reddit several years ago that […]

VPR – Flashes to white, quick cuts, red emphasis scenes, peripheralsCW – Violence, gore, disturbing imagery, nudity Have you ever come across an AMV and wished desperately that you had found it several years earlier? “SEE WHAT I SEE” has been one of those AMV’s for me, and I’ve been making up lost time by […]

VPR – Flashes to white, fades to black, rapid camera movement, red emphasis scenes, possible strobe at 1:52 – 1:55 (vertical black bars go rapidly across the screen). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-jU5EKOdeg I’ve been wanting to write about this AMV for a couple of months now. This was the first AMV of 2022 I found via reddit that […]

VPR – All https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tY6_8HuvAYU I’m a little bit burnt out from posting my top AMV’s from 2021, however the other day I was reminiscing and watching AMV’s on my storage drive and felt the urge to write about this.Saying that something is your absolute favourite thing ever is rather ambitious, tastes naturally change over time […]

10 Video title: Light and DarknessEditor: Mushishi BrasilAnime: MushishiSong: diaphanous.mp3Artist: PurplezZ Comments: “Light and Darkness” is an unusual video, focusing solely on exploring the concept of how we perceive light, delightfully illustrating this using the anime Mushishi. The topic of light is such an obvious connection to draw with Mushishi, “Light and Darkness” does a […]

20 Video title: Bliss AbyssEditor: Legato2400Anime: BeserkSong: In My RemainsArtist: Linkin Park Comments: I’ve never watched nor read any of Beserk, I also don’t particularly enjoy the animation/artstyle of the newer Beserk anime, so that this AMV is number 20 on my list is testament to Legato2400’s storytelling ability. For the most part I find […]

30 Video title: UnisilEditor: TRUTH CRABAnime: Key the Metal IdolSong: UnisilArtist: SOPHIE Comments: 2021 is when I finally decided to hop on the TRUTH CRAB train. Better late than never I suppose! I had my reservations about TRUTH CRAB mainly because the AMV’s from him I’d seen recommended were ones I found okay to watch […]

40 Video title: Our Overwelming TouchEditor: Ghosts Will Pass Through HereAnime: The End of EvangelionSong: Dirty SummerArtist: Mother Falcon Comments: I’m a little hesitant to talk about “Our Overwelming Touch”, I’m worried that my personal feelings of it is far off what is intended. That being said, I suppose the nature of art generally is […]
