NONE OF THE MATERIAL BELONGS TO ME -- THE SONG "A NEW HOPE" IS BY THE BAND BROKEN IRIS, AND THE ANIME PRINCESS TUTU BELONGS TO IKUKO ITOH. I HAVE NO LEGAL ASSOCIATION WITH EITHER, MERELY FANISH APPRECIATION, AND DO NOT COMBINE THEIR WORKS WITH THE IDEA OF PROFIT.
YES, THE1KOOLKITTY IS BACK IN ACTION!!! I flew home from Orlando two days ago and so am back home with my computer, ready to make the new AMVs I've been mulling over for the last six months! And this is the first one I finished...I first heard this song from and was VERY inspired by this vid youtube.com/watch?v=GHg-Zn_oqdI , and as soon as I got home, I bought the song and got to work on this. Originally I'd thought of having Fakir "grow up" into another anime character who would then live his life writing stories before dying, but I couldn't find a character that suited the look of a grown up Fakir (the closest I thought up were Roy and Hughes from Fullmetal Alchemist, but they didn't really work), and in the end I figured just using Fakir would make it a whole lot easier. I tried a BUNCH of overlays in this, trying to add a "crossover" feel to it by adding things like the roses and the "memories" and "stories" reflecting over different scenes...tell me if they work or are distracting! I also tried a different version of the watermark I was trying to use...is it better than the red version in the Everything You Want vid? What do you guys think?
Hopefully the story is easy enough to understand, but just in case, here's a clipped note summary -- after the series ends, Ahiru goes back to being a duck and, as he promised, Fakir promised to stay by her side, but he can't help but miss Ahiru in her human form. When Fakir goes out to brood (as Fakir does), Ahiru follows him in concern. The ravens sense that their enemies are out and about, though, and attack the duck who caused the Raven's defeat. Although Fakir fights to help her, he is too late to save her, and Ahiru dies in his hands. Fakir feels responsible, but with Ahiru in his mind, he continues to write endings that would please her: happy endings for everyone -- Autor and Pique, Rue and Mytho, Lysander and Hermia, Paulo and Paulamoni, and others. This does not please Drosselmeyer, of course, but it DEFINITELY doesn't please the Bookmen who don't like Fakir playing with peoples' stories and who decide to stop him once and for all. They corner Fakir and, after a "lifetime of holding on" and fighting, Fakir gives into death at his own hand. He surrenders himself to the Oak Tree and so dies to become one with everything. Finally he can be with Ahiru again, if only in his mind.
Hope you enjoy!!

NONE OF THE MATERIAL BELONGS TO ME THE ANIME PRINCESS TUTU BELONGS TO IKUKO ITOH, THE SONG YOU BELONG TO ME WAS WRITTEN BY TAYLOR SWIFT, AND THE ACOUSTIC MALE COVER OF THE SONG IS SUNG BY BUTCH WALKER. NONE OF THESE MATERIALS BELONG TO ME, AND ARE ONLY COMBINED FOR ENTERTAINMENT, NOT PROFIT.
Wow...I believe this is next to the first time Ive actually made a video portraying the ship of Mytho/Ahiru...and yet even with THIS SONG, I have to turn it into Fakir/Ahiru!! XD;;; Well, theres a good reason! I think Im like a lot of people when I admit I have a HUGE love-hate relationship with this song its unbelievably catchy, and its nice to have a song told from the perspective of nearly every normal girl in high school. But that being said, though...if a guy is truly this stupid not to notice you when you do practically EVERYTHING for him, why would you WANT to be with this person? Maybe Im a bit biased as I myself prefer smart guys, but I honestly think this is silly, particularly when its based on high school crushes. From my own personal experience, I had a high school crush on a guy who didnt even know I existed, and when I developed some confidence in myself in high school and college, I realized that I shouldnt bother with guys who are focused solely on the exterior. I value whats on the inside, and Id never want a guy who didnt also...and so this video is a message to all those people who had a crush on someone who didnt appreciate it if you try, and that person isnt looking, look around you! There are a million more fish in the sea who will see how wonderful you are. XD Hope you enjoy!")
