Harlequinade13 | (MEP) DAZAI & AKUTAGAWA | ANNIE & ARMIN x “When you lie" @Harlequinade13 | Uploaded November 2017 | Updated October 2024, 2 days ago.
I wasn’t going to post anymore MEP parts until I had a full video up but I was too excited about this one to wait! (And have like four WIPs)
For tomoekun777’s MEP!
youtube.com/watch?v=LMDlzGh9_5w&t=0s
It was an MEP focusing on villains so I focused on Dazai and Annie. Annie’s a more obvious villain and so I had to use her for this MEP. For Dazai, I focused on it from Akutagawa’s POV because the “you said the gun was mine” part reminded me of that clip and I really wanted to edit Dazai in a darker light, both in and away from the mafia. And who’s a bad guy and who isn’t is really all about point of view. So I focused on villains and their victims, basically.
I lost the file while editing part two (it mysteriously disappeared) so part one still has some things I wanted to change but I love it too much not to post it. Part 2 came out without any regrets on my part, although SNK is really hard to edit with sound FX because it uses a lot of background music. I had a blast editing with sound FX in the first part and hope to make a full video with BSD soon that incorporates that style more. (It’s basically my normal editing but with like extra things to keep track of and manipulate -sigh-)
Everyone should know by now that Annie is one of my favorite characters ever, and now Dazai is up there too. So I’ll be editing more with him soon.
I would really appreciate feedback on this since I haven’t edited as much with sound FX before. Editors, teach me your ways!
Big thanks to my beta, littlemissfiretruckx, for helping me with this and when my file disappeared and keeping me from doing something counterproductive like smashing my computer.
Enjoy!

I did an IC with toshirofan1011 and SmashGuy from ABS a week ago and it was tons of fun. I’m just getting around to posting because I’m finally on break. :) We each picked songs for each other, with SmashGuy picking suggestions for me. I went with this song because it was so pretty and inspiring!

I love this couple and angsty/guilt-ridden Annie in particular. The lyrics reminded me so much of them and I enjoyed editing this and so asked for an extra day to finish it since we were originally doing a 24-hour IC and I had a lot of classes that day. So heres some Annie POV and feels for your day. Enjoy!

A birthday present for Tasha! What is this, I’m actually posting a birthday present on time for once? Lol!
[EDIT: Worst thumbnails ever smh]
I wanted to edit Eren and Levi for her because she loves them, and when I introduced her to Anberlin some time ago, she said this song was her favorite. I’ve been wanting to make a Levi/Eren video with this song for about a year now so I figured why not make it for her birthday?! xD I wanted to show Levi supporting Eren, encouraging his spirited nature even during hard times, because someone has to be the happy/optimistic one, right? The ‘do as you’re told’ line was what make me think of them originally and those were my favorite lines to edit.
Sub the birthday girl!! Her channel is amazing and if you like Levi/Eren, she has a lot of amazing videos with them.

Tasha, I hope you have a wonderful birthday. And good cake. ;) You gave me such a beautiful birthday present last year so I put a lot of work into this for you. It has been a joy getting to know you. We have so much in common and I love talking with you about writing or fangirling about our favorite pairings. Keep writing and making wonderful videos and just generally being your adorable self! Here’s to another year of friendship. –throws confetti-

Victuuri collab time!! xD I did this colab with SailorPika who is an amazing editor and wonderful to work with!
Sub her!!
https://www.youtube.com/user/SailorPika
She suggested this song and I loved it because I had instant ideas and I wanted to do something a little darker and more dramatic with their relationship, with a darker take on sexuality. For my parts, I wanted to give my Victor and Yuuri both an ‘I’ll always be there for you’ part and a sexual, mildly possessive part. The ‘who’s gonna love you like me?’ was very Yuuri to me and Victor doesn’t need much help in the being sexy department. I loved the ‘I don’t want to hurt you but you live for the pain’ line because I wanted to show their shifting power dynamics on ice and Victor’s more submissive side (or rather, wanting to be submissive to a dominant Yuuri where he hasn’t been able to before). Their power dynamics really don’t have to be a sexual thing and I think they mostly show on the ice with Victor and Yuuri letting to ‘power’ flow between them. It’s an interesting dynamic and I wanted to hint a little at it here.
Overall, I love this collab! Angsty Victuuri is love! And I adore SailorPika’s editing style so it’s an honor to work with her, not to mention she’s super sweet and fun to talk to. And her effects/typography is gorgeous omg!
Anyway, I really hope you all enjoy this! We worked really hard on it and I’m happy to be able to contribute to YOI fandom anytime. xD

Merry Christmas darling! Heres some Eren x Levi for you, and a bit of Levi x Petra too. Double the feels!
The video is all in Levis point of view.
Eren tries to leave, blaming himself for everything in typical Eren fashion. Levi does not try to stop him, understanding that this is something Eren believes he needs to do, though Levi doesnt want him to go. He thinks of Petra, how shes gone now, how things were right with her and he couldnt allow himself to spend more time with her. Still, he looks back on the times she smiled at him and believes them to be good. But now that Eren is in the pictures and Levi is paying more attention to him, he sees an opportunity he couldnt take (and yet took too easily) with Petra- being close to someone, taking care of them. He thinks of his job as a soldier, protecting humanity, and not just one person, and acknowledges that it was much easier before. Now its more difficult to focus on his morals, on being a symbol, when people like Petra and Eren are in his way.
He tells Eren to stay.

Message for my Mikasa: (:P)
Where to start? Were continuing our tradition of being not-so-secret Santas for each other, and weve gotten even closer this year. Heres some Eren/Levi and sad Levi/Petra for you. And Levi is touching Erens face at the end. Hes probably calling him a little brat or something, but the sentiment is there, right? Thank you for talking with me, for always saying the right things, for Betaing my videos and keeping me from smashing my computer on more than one occasion. Thank you for co-leading a will-be-awesome SNK studio. And I promise I will finish my collab parts by the end of this year. :P Thanks for putting up with me all the time! Merry Christmas!

My tribute to Eren is done!
This is for the third round of heymonwebejaminns Invidcible tourney. We had to do a character/couple study and I picked Eren, with a specific focus on his humanity. Id wanted to edit with this song and the instrumental requirement of this round was the perfect opportunity to use it.
For this video, I focused on Eren as human. How his humanity is tested, questioned. And how it reveals itself time and time again. Eren can shift into a titan and is therefore deemed unsafe, a thing no one understands. Very few people want to take the time to learn to trust him. But people like Mikasa, Armin, Levi, and later the rest of Levis squad all grow to trust him and his ability to some degree. Eren is emotionally driven, something that cannot be said for any regular titan. His choices are inspired by heated feelings, such as his goal to kill the titans and his decision to join the military. He yells, cries, more than anyone. He is driven by anger, driven by human emotion. Levis goal at Erens trial is to bring this out for everyone to see— the so-called monster can breed and feel pain just like anyone else. He can be controlled and trained just as well. Eren is hurt by everyones mistrust, though he understands logically why they feel the way they do. He is called a monster, called the very thing he hates. The people he befriended and trained beside turn their blades against him. Even after he joins the Survey Corps, Squad Levi is prepared to kill him if they must, though they quickly apologize, letting Eren know killing him would have been a very difficult thing to do if it came to that. They bite their hands to acknowledge the pain Eren goes through daily and when turning into a titan. Petra tells Eren to have faith in them, which Eren does, further separating him from the mindless human-eating monsters they all fight. Another theme I wanted to focus on was pain. Emotional and physical pain. Squad Levi, as well as Mikasa and Armin, all sympathize and empathize with Eren when he is in pain, and he suffers a lot. Eren grieves the deaths of the members of Squad Levi, and blames himself for everything that has happened. He never wanted anyone to die for him— it was always supposed to be the opposite. Eren cries. Mikasa and Levi are near him and they find it difficult to watch such a passionate, hopeful, reckless boy suffer so much, brought down by the merciless world around him.
Eren the human.
DEDICATIONS:
-littlemissfiretruckx
You helped me with the episodes, provided encouragement, and constantly betaed this video as it progressed. This video would literally not be possible without you. Thank you!
-hydrazoite
We have been talking about this show so much! And I know you love the subject of Erens humanity and feels so heres some precious Eren for you.
Editors Notes:
I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS THING NONSTOP THE LAST FEW DAYS!! Seriously, Im so glad its done. Its due today. (Opps.) But Im super proud of it. I could have gone on and on with this video, given the time, and I would have loved to include his friends more and maybe some more Levi, and Annie too. But the focus was supposed to be on his humanity so Im kind of glad I was only able to stick to strict outline of things that showed Eren doing human things, feeling human emotions.
A note on the lyrics at the end, since the rule for this contest is to use an instrumental- I kept them to a minimum and they were really used in order to get a good ending for the video, as nothing else really worked. Most of the lyrics in the end credits anyway, which start at the color transition when Mikasa goes to Eren after he emerges from the titan the first time. So I hope its okay.
Enjoy! Comments would be most appreciated!
