Happy Birthday Mitzi! I won't be around when it hits midnight over there so I put it on upload timer to make sure you see it sometimes during your birthday!!! I hope you find this.
Should I work on my 174731 mep parts? Did I edit this instead? You bet. But I've been wanting to edit this song with DDS for a long time, and I knew that if I don't this now, I'd never end up doing this. That said, I wish there was a full edit of this song with them because how perfect is the song for them? So whoever wants to steal this idea please go on ahead :D
Now with that out of the way, Mitzi, I hope you have a wonderful birthday! I know this year has been nothing but cursed but you deserve nothing but the best today, at least. I love you so much, and being your friend is an absolute honor. The way you go above and beyond to help your friends leaves me speechless everytime. I seriously don't know how I deserve you, but man, I really couldn't ask for more from you. I admire your strength, your honesty, your kindness and empathy. Please never change (except. Take a break haha). I love youuuu.
P.S. As an extra birthday gift this video ALMOST made DDS into my fav Yusaku ship ;D

Welcome back for the last time this year! It's been a while since my last mep collection, so this is a summary of almost my entire year in editing. It's been a tough editing year for me tbh. I was extremely busy the entire year, and not in the best place mentally, and it burned me out from wanting to edit for a lot of it. A lot of times it genuinely felt like a chore. This means I edited a lot of parts I'm not particularly proud of this year, so this collection is cutting a lot of the parts I've done. I'll probably keep slowly cutting down on parts, as I've slowly been doing throughout the course of 2023 already.
This year has honestly sucked the life out of me and I hope 2024 is gonna be a bit less draining. There were some absolute highs though (meeting skype crew, having Mitzi over to help me pick my wedding dress) that kept me going through all of it. So this collection is dedicated to everyone who spent time with me this year, for singlehandedly keeping me sane lmao.
There's a few of my best parts in here (e.g., Russian Roulette and Friends), but overall this is most definitely a step down from my last collection. However I still hope you enjoy some of the parts in here :)
Merry Christmas @DognissEverdeen26! I was your Secret Santa this year and I hope you enjoy your gift. When I saw Anne & Gilbert in your favorites I decided to use them pretty quickly. I wanted to edit with them for a while, and it's one of the ships on your list that I know best. It took a LONG time till I was actually starting on this though, as I went through a lot of different song choices and nothing was turing out. I found this one in one of your playlists and I know it's a song I am very comfortable editing, so I hope you don't mind it not being by one of your favorite artists! I rather wanted to make sure to gift you something I am proud of than using the absolute perfect song for you with a mediocre edit :)
About the video itself, I am still in SHOCK I edited something this long? This started at around one minute but something I was having fun with it so it just... kept growing. Wild. This is also my first time coming up with a more elaborate style for an edit and I am really happy with how it turned out. Overall I am incredibly pleased with this. Something about this song just makes it so every time I edit it it looks pretty LOL.
I will be back with my one mep collection of the year sometimes soon, but other than that, see you all next year!

Happy Birthday best girl!!! ♡ (Sponsored by Blingee)
Last year you got a non serious mep so this year you get a non serious mep with your uwu baby boys. No matter how messy birthday MEPs have been this year, this one takes the cake. Jo and I talked about this for weeks and had the song (my suggestion) and the y2k/Blingee style (Jo's suggestion) all picked out... we just didn't have any cut parts bc life got messy (which is also why we initially planned to just collab the two of us bc we were too busy to plan anything else). Then a few days ago Lili sweeped in, asked if we were planning anything, cut the parts and saved the day lol. Then on top of that Jo and I were bullied massively by his computer and my Vegas... but all of that aside this was a lot of fun to do. We kept sharing screenshots and laughing our asses off and I like to call this the best edit I ever made. (Even Lucas agreed, he called this an abomination LMAO). And anyway it was all worth it for best girl and best girl alone!!! ♡ We love you.
ALSO CAN YOU BELIEVE I ACCIDENTALLY SPOILED THIS TWO YEARS IN A ROW. WOW. I AM SO USELESS AT THIS.
So, this was part of our Summer IC series: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjxRpZ0vWVKfVY2l4dbKzgiYYXdU_EiZZ and of course because I am me, I had to host a Crackship one! This was a lot of fun to do even if all of us whipped this out last minute LOL.

Happy wedding anniversary to the two greatest live action ships of all time who just so happen to share a wedding day because they're amazing like that! ♥ I've missed Mondler day for the past few years so this year I reached out for a collab partner on Twitter and Elo (@MiaWinchester794 ) suggested making it a collab for these two ships instead! This actually made me finally pick B99 back up and I binged through it in a few weeks and fell absolutely in love with the show and Peraltiago as well. They are amazing and reminded me SO MUCH of Mondler which made me even more excited to do this collab. Working with Elo was an absolute pleasure and I'm so happy she offered to work with me, suggested the song and delivered the most STUNNING parts. I am so obsessed with the final result! Go check her out if you're not subbed to her yet.

Hello! It's been a while since my last collection, huh? Life's been busy and I haven't been editing as much (about a minute if this collection are collab parts that I forgot to put in my last collection haha). I'm slowly but steadily cutting down on the number of parts I'm taking. It's a process but I'm getting there lmao. I've been once again messing with some new things here. Mainly I'm trying to get my fx editing to be more dynamic (some parts look messy because of it but I think there's progress here) and also I got accepted into YES earlier this year and trying to adjust my editing style to suit the studio better! It's though lmao but I'm excited to learn ♥
Thanks for sticking around, I hope you enjoy this collection!~

When this video goes live, Ash's final episode will have just finished airing. It's hard to explain how I feel about that, really. Pokemon has been the one constant thing in my life, something that was always there, no matter what else would change in my life. I met most of my most important people thanks to this franchise. And while PokeSpe might be my "favorite" part of Pokemon, PokeAni and Ash at it's core were always the thing that best captured this connection I have to it. And also the most important part for me, really. I was like, 3, when I saw my first episode on TV, sneaking into the living room when my brother was watching. Now I'm 26, moving countries, starting a job, getting married, still following the adventures of this dorky 10 year old. And he's been everything to me through the years, my first crush, my best friend when I was a lonely teenager, my son whom I was watching grow from this hot headed idiot to literal world champion. But most important, he will always be my best boy, my favorite character, no matter how many other favorites come and go through the years. I will never stop smiling thinking about his pure, unwavering love for Pokemon.
PokeAni got me into editing, back then I didn't really expect I would still be doing this 15 years later. And now I got to edit a video to say goodbye to him for good and it hurts. I shed an embarrassing amount of tears while working on this video, but well. When they announced Ash's final episode literally my first instinct was to edit something for him with my Pokemon editing friends. I am so thankful that so many of them decided to work with me on this, I really think there couldn't be a more worthy sendoff to him than this. Everyone really put their heart and soul into their parts, we cried together editing this thing. It was very cathartic honestly. And I truly think we captured all the aspects of his character so well in this video. You can just FEEL all the love pouring out. And the fact that so many of us got together feels so fitting, considering the entire theme of Pokemon is making friends through our shared experiences, and our shared love for these little creatures.
That said, thank you, Ash and Pikachu. For being there for me when I was a struggling teenager and didn't have anyone else, for connecting me with the best people one could ask for in their life, for bringing me so much joy through all these years, and for massively influencing the person I grew up to be. I'll never forget you two, and I'll never stop cheering for you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Another year another mep for the pun queen. Yes our collective Marianas Trench brain took over again this year haha I hope you don’t mind!! This year you’re getting a freestyle mep with the most chaotic energy lmao
Also Alice made a doc because my busy ass didn’t get around to it:
Big thanks goes out to Missy and Emma for helping out with an extra part and also everyone else who offered (like 5 people offered because we all love you, people were taking my parts from me in an effort to get the mep filled LMAO). This was the most unorganized I have ever been hosting a mep but everyone communicated and was on time and also sent me the most beautiful parts so! Big shoutout to everyone in the mep~

Aaand welcome to my last upload of the year which is not another secret santa but in fact a mep collection lmao.
These are parts from March through December. I left out quite a few parts this time around because being forced to edit on my laptop for the majority of the year made my quality drop some... I am super proud of my most recent parts tho, and I had a lot of fun with most parts I did! A lot of these were for birthdays too, which I think will be my general rule of thumb from here on out.
Anyway, I did edit a lot less this year, which was mostly for good reasons. My year started out pretty terrible but then turned around to be the most wonderful year of my life. I got to life abroad for half a year and find my passion there, I have been in the most stable mindset I have been in since I can even remember. I got engaged to the love of my life. I got to meet some of my most dearest friends for the first time (It still feels like a dream). I genuinely don't think I was ever this confidently happy. And if that comes at the cost of editing time, I'll take it. So, I know I keep saying it but I do believe I will cut back on editing time in the future. I have a lot of exciting things waiting for me, and I want to focus on them fully. I'll never give up this hobby, but it's time to cut back and focus on other exciting things also.
If you have been a part of my 2022, thank you from the bottom of my heart for having me in your life, for being friends or just taking time out of your day to engage with me. I truly appreciate it.
That said, I am wishing you all a good start into 2023, and see you around then. -Lena ______ ART CREDIT
Fun fact, this is the 3rd time I am getting Dicey for a Secret Santa - it's destiny at this point. But you know what, I'm always fine with showing her my love and appreciation in form of a Pokeshipping video (because is there really any other option for the Pokeshipping queen in the flesh? Lol). I've been meaning to edit this song for a while so I quickly made my choice - I also thought it would be funny to edit a Taylor Swift song for 4/5 Secret Santa's this year so here we are.
Initially I was going for a very brightly colored video with this but as soon as I started building the first scene it turned into a more vintage/pinkish scrapbook style edit (SUPER reminiscent of the last Secret Santa edit I made for Dicey even tho that was purely a coincidence). I quite enjoy how it turned out altho I do feel like it's a bit choppy in some parts. It was also a lot of fun to edit and I just breezed through this in a few hours because I just couldn't stop.

Happy Holidays Sarah! ♥ I was so pleased when I found out I would be your secret santa this year because that meant I was finally sit down and edit something for you that isn't just a birthday mep part. And I found it especially fitting considering you made me find AS in the first place. I hope me starting to watch Teen Wolf to edit some Stidya for you was a nice surprise! I knew they had to make it in here somehow, what is a Sarah video without a Stiles in it right.
I think I could have done better in this edit had I not done it on my laptop which was bullying me all throughout, however I tried hard to go for some nice parallels here and use as many of youe ships as possible! So, I really hope this brings you joy!
P.S. Unfortunatly the song suits ShinRan so well that I had to use them over KaiShin even tho we both have KaiShin brainrot lmao

I was super excited to get you and I really hope you enjoy your gift! You asked for multicouples and while I don't know AS many of your ships I tried to deliver on that. I tried to focus on your favorite ships first and foremost, adding some of the others here and there. I really picked the song kinda randomly because I thought it would be good to edit and only afterwards I realized how well it fits a lot of your top ships, especially when going for a more literal meaning of the song so that worked out well lol.
This song was a lot of fun to edit (and it's such a Stydia song I almost switched to a Stydia edit) and I am really happy with the outcome. I know there are some mistakes, but it is by far my favorite liveaction video I have done that isn't a collab part so I'll take it. :) I tried a lot of new things here and I'm happy that they worked out well! I need to improve on my voiceovers in longer edits at some point but I really enjoy the style and overall flow of this edit.
I have two more Secret Santa uploads and a MEP collection coming up so you'll see a lot of me in the next few days haha.

CONGRATULATIONS MITZI & KYLE!!! I am writing this as I am in the car to the airport on my way to finally meet you guys and celebrate your wedding ceremony with you all! Exciting and sappy haha. Red & I couldn't help ourselves and had to make sure to not only get you guys an actual gift but also one in the most "us" way we know. We had to do a little bit of guess work on the ships but tried to aim for ones that you guys associate with one another! I know you've already seen it at this point, but here it is again.
I will not put any sappy wishes here because honestly by the time this goes up I have propably said it all already. (Propably combined with a lot of tears bc I am very very emotional this particular weekend lmao). All I wanna say is that I am beyond happy that you guys have found each other, you deserve each other so much, and the fact that I get to celebrate your love with you IN PERSON is absolutely unreal and magical. I hope the future has nothing but amazing things in store for the both of you.
Also thank you so much Red for organizing this collab and putting it on a flashdrive, it was such a pleasure working on this with you!! And thank you so much for scouting out the song and a direction for the color scheme. You did a fantastic job on it all.

It's Mitzi's birthday, wooh! Happy birthday my beloved! May you be blessed with love and laughter on this most special of days! If you arent Mitzi I will not explain this mep to you. Just embrace the chaos.
Happy Confession Day! As always, this is a tradition I will not be breaking, I took part in Rissy's MEP to celebrate these two! I was honestly scared that this year I would not be able to get something done in time because I have been extremely busy and my laptop has given me hell (I miss my computer sobs), but I made it :)
And while editing on this laptop is hard, and most things are turning our quite choppy, I'm actually fairly satisfied with this edit. I had the song picked out for a long time, when this cover was released I fell in love with how soft it sounds, and the music video really inspired me to edit it with a style like this. If you've noticed, I edited All Time Low's Monsters for IS day last year, so I might make a tradition out of that lol. I wanted to include some manips with the Journeys clips but didn't manage to. Hopefully next year :)
Not sure when my next upload will be, but I suppose it's gonna be a while, so I will see you around!

Woooh it's finally here! So happy to present all of you my latest mep, aka "could've just made it Dawn ships instead" lmao. And what screams more "Lena's Brand" than mixing Pokemon Crackships with an ATL song? Can't think of a whole lot of things tbh. Anyway, this mep was originally planned as an unofficial birthday mep for me but everyone is busy in june so I figured I'd just let people take their time with it and no regrets because the result is stunning! I am so in love with the ship choices, the manips, the effects. Everyone went all out on their parts! Which is exactly what rarepairs and crackships deserve! I am so happy with the outcome of this!!!
Also as a general note, I won't be uploading much for the rest of the year. my life is an absolute rollercoaster right now in the best way possible and I have very limited time to edit. I won't be gone completely, just. Not covid level activity haha. See you guys around!
Happy Birthday Gigi!! ♥ Did you think I would let Gigi day go by without getting something out for you? Sure as hell not hehe. Tho as you might be able to tell by the show I picked, this was very spontaneous lol. I hope it's still a good pick~! I had something else in the works for you but wasn't really satisfied with it, and when you messaged me about finishing Arcane I re-planned and edited this in two days bc I was much more comfortable with it haha. Which is why it might have some mistakes but truthfully, I think it achieves what I want to do, which is show both the angst and the softness of these two! The song is so good for them isn't it?
But anyway, that aside!! I hope your birthday so far has been amazing! I love you so much, I am so so so happy we started talking last year and got to bond over 4 idiots from Baltimore and then over so much more from there on out! We're not just birthday twins, we truly feel like twin braincells sometimes and I wouldn't want it any other way. I love how well we understand each other, and how much we agree on things and just how I never get tired of talking to you! Your energy is so infectious, and I always feel safe around you. I know things have been a lot lately, but I hope the year is gonna be better for you from here on out and you can life the best live and go all the places you're supposed to be ♥ Whether we're back to talking daily or just checking in every few weeks, I will cheer you on from the sidelines! Thank you for everything, I can't wait to see where life is taking you next and I hope I can be a part of it from my other corner of the world (and maybe in person for a bit, be it one country or the other hehe)

Sooo, this started out as a sort of vent to get my brain back to focus on work and instead it took over my entire being these past 2 days, as these things tend to do lol. I've always wanted to try my hands at an edit that isn't really fanwork but more of an.. expression? I mostly picked scenes that resonated with me and tried to tie them together somehow so it's kind of a personal edit. It's kind of a mess but then again, so is mental health isn't it?

Hello and welcome to me copying Taylor Swift and doing "from the vault" edits, aka edits I abandoned for years and then finish up despite not being super happy with them just so they don't get lost forever lol.
I started this project a full year ago after a Ross & Rachel edit got me obsessed with the song and then the quote from above just made think of how well it also goes with Monica & Richard too ("he's my happy place"). I am super proud of some parts of this video (the voiceovers, mainly) but I was struggling with some other sections (the pacing, 2nd verse and man you can tell I had no idea how to end this video) so I left it unfinished for a long time. I was in the mood for a heartbreak angsty edit yesterday, so I decided to fix it up as much as I could and upload it, before it gets lost to the void. I wish I could do it more justice but I know I won't rework it from scratch, so that's the best I can do after my editing changed so much in the past year.
Anyway I'm glad I finally managed to edit some Richard & Monica. When I watched FRIENDS for the first time I fell absolutely head over heels for them and when they broke up I was devastated. I didn't expect to love another Monica ship because these two were SO GOOD in my eyes. Well, Mondler happened and became my favorite ship of all time, but I never stopped loving these two. Their whole storyline is so heartbreaking and realistic and it's a struggle I wanna see in fiction more often. Breaking up not over petty drama but because while you still care about each other, your life goals just. Don't align well enough. It was beautifully done and I hope I was able to capture that aspect of their relationship a little bit.

Heyo! Welcome to my current Pokemon brainrot lmao. So I realized it's been a very long time since I've last done a Pokemon edit that wasn't ship based since I mostly edit Pokemon for meps or ship days nowadays and so I suddenly had the urge to haha. But I do love all these girls a lot even if I have issues with some of their writing. They're all amazing and deserve some love! (Also editing girls is just too much fun in general sorry.)
I've been wanting to edit this song ever since it's release and additionally practice my action editing a bit more so it was a perfect match! We do need some more Pokegirl action scenes tho, I vastly overestimated how many there are, so I had to cut this song short. I decided to stick with the 5 OG girls because I feel like their role in their season is very different from Chloe and the SM girls, also I need those high stake action scenes (which Misty and May are also lacking ugh).
Considering action style isn't usually my strong suit I'm quite proud of how this turned out. It has some pacing issues still, but overall I really love how it looks!

So I've been. Having a week and I feel like my emotions have really been fucking with me. Instead of staying awake and feeling like shit I decided to channel it all into some creative work and this happened lmao. Also I am sorry for making Neku suffer but he's perfect for this type of editing.
This has no story telling or like.. representation of my mental state rn, I was really just throwing angsty scenes at each other until they looked good so uh. I do enjoy the result tho so I hope you like it too! If you spot mistakes, it's 6am and I can't be bothered anymore lol.
Dedicated to everyone who's been hanging out with me on stream while working on it, I had a lot of fun and did me some good for sure. :) Hope you had fun watching along!

Man this is yet again so overdue, I really need to work on getting these up more regularly lol. So hi welcome back to Lena has no self-control and loves editing 23892384 different things haha.
The title of this collection is half accurate, half of these parts were incredibly fun to do, the other half fried my brain, inspo has been very picky these past months. I've been enjoying FX editing alot and I feel like I've grown much more comfortable with Liveaction and multifandom parts, but at the same time animated raw has been a struggle for me to get through huh. Weird. A lot of these parts took a lot out of me, but I think it was worth it and I am overall very happy with this collection as a whole. I seem to keep progressing lately and it makes me very happy to see.
(Also it took me until putting this together to realize how real my Arcane brainrot has been whoops. That show is too much fun to edit, help.)
P.S. I feel like this collection doesn't have AS much liveaction but somehow the auto thumbnail and my personalized thumbnail choice all said Liveaction rights whoops.Just My Type | Editor MemePokeLSouma2022-02-17 | Whoops my hand slipped.
Dicey tagged me for this meme and I actually wanted to do it last time it was popular but eh. I put way too much effort into this at first and in the end I gave up which is why the image quality is getting progressively more ugly. But anyway.

We are keeping it small this year, but obviously Skype Crew had to come together to celebrate you once again this year! I hope this brings you joy. We love you very much and want to make sure you always know that!
Please ignore that the message section goes 0% with the style of the edit, but eh. It is cute haha. I always associate you with scrapbooking so that is what I wanted to do. Also this accidentally turned into a mostly Liveaction Collab, after we were all done we were like "huh?" lmao. But it also suits you so. I hope you like that!

And for the last time this year - happy birthday Dina! This wasn't really planned. I had started something different for you more in my usual style (angst and raw) but somehow I just haven't been feeling raw editing lately so I ditched that. Then I randomly clicked through your playlist and I PROMISE NOT TO SPREAD MY AGENDA HERE but I just rly wanted to edit that dialouge section with the TWEWY sprites lol.. First I wanted to do fake cutscenes but then this was more fun. And ofc paper grunge is my only editing style nowadays so. Welp.
I don't think I've edited a personal fx video in like. 10 years so idk where the inspo came from but this was alot of fun. Tho I will never speed edit 15 seconds of fx in one evening again, Vegas has given me hell lmao. I will also never edit such a long fx edit ever again thank you very much.
Anyway Dina ily! I've said my share of things so I won't do it again haha.
Also big shoutout to all my fellow schemers again. You guys were a blessing to work with, and you also kept me sane when Vegas and cats where manipulating me.
Happy Birthday once again Dina! Did you think I wouldn’t get something up for you on my own channel? Or were you suspicious haha. Anyway, I figured since we got quite a few people this time thanks to most of B-Team stepping up, we would double-surprise you this time around! So here’s some fluffy ships to heal your heart after the emotional attack we prepared before.
Once again a big thank you to all my fellow schemers, with a special shoutout to Dicey & Sophie who took extra parts to get this filled, Flamey for a quick backup and Lili for the fantastic intro (so I don’t have to haha.)

I got the opportunity to work with the amazingly talented xShadowBanshee for her adventcalendar project this year, where she's uploading one one-on-one collab with different editors everyday until christmas. I think it's a such a fun project so I'm very happy I had the chance to take part in it! I suggested going for a multirelationships collab and Jasmina suggested the song, which those who know me can tell I accepted in a heartbeat lmao. I prefer the musical version, but this one is definitly easier to work with so. I'll take what I can get when it comes to editing show tunes lmao.
This is such a comfort collab for me and I hope you guys will enjoy it as well!

SPOILERS FOR THE MOST RECENT ONE PIECE ARC AT 0:17 - 0:33! Turn on CC for subtitles for the Voiceovers!
God this collection is so long overdue. I actually cut out SO many parts because it was already so long and so I just wanted to focus on ones I particularly like, am proud of or wanna showcase for the fandoms in it haha. Shouldn't have waited 5 months but I never felt like getting it ready for uploading whoops.
But that means I really like this collection overall since every part in here has significance somehow. I really, massively went out of my comfort zone for a lot of parts in this collection. There's several parts that I worked on and off on for weeks because they were styles that are the exact opposite of what I'm good at. Not all of them turned out exactly as I wanted, but I learned a lot working on them and I know all the hard work that went into them so I adore them anyway. Special shoutout to SummS and Nina (purplestoessel) in that regard, thanks for constantly challening me!
There's also so many birthday parts in here which means I edited with A LOT of things I don't ship personally - if you look closely you'll even be able to find 2 of my Notps (Yes I am still mad that this Roschel part is propably my nicest Liveaction part yet, pft). Don't get too used to it, but nothing but the best for my friends. ♥
Also yes, the two Everything Has Changed parts are, in fact, not the same part. I was confused too, lol.
There will be one more big mep collection sometimes earlier next year before I'll be going on a longer hiatus - there's some exiting stuff going on in my life that will keep me fairly busy for the entire next year and I will try to stick to editing for close friend's birthdays for the time being. But first I need to get through my long backlog of parts. Just a headsup.
So, I didn't really expect this to happen, I have so many parts pilling up and even despite that, I figured my first Arcane video would be a Jinx & Vi one that I've been planning for two weeks at this point. But sometimes that's not how inspo works I guess so here we are. I can't believe I edited this entire 2 min video in the span of a few hours either haha. But this is the first time I'm really happy with this super basic hard cut style. The instrumental section feels a bit off but other than that I think it looks pretty good?! So yeah, that's how I managed to speed edit the hell out of this.
This was inspired by the incredible Vi & Cait video by Bells, which is also called Crave You. When I saw the title I figured it would be this song and when it wasn't I knew I wanted to edit it with them and then one track mind took over lmao. Go watch her masterpiece over here: youtube.com/watch?v=PFzISg9858g And while you're at it, go check out this amazing old Comashipping edit that made me discover this song all those years back: youtube.com/watch?v=M1BttnIfEy0

Did I finally edit a proper video of my ultimate OTP?! Maybe I did haha. I started editing with them so many times before and I never felt like I was doing them justice - I still don't. This isn't an impressive edit or anything close to being one of my better ones. But it's done and after it sitting around for over a month I know I won't get back to it and fix it at any point so. I'll just release it as is, before I drop another Mondler edit 80% through as I have done so many times before. I just feel like I need to nail them 100%, and maybe I just need to accept that I never will.
This is an extension of a birthday part I made for the lovely Fra, you can watch the original here: youtube.com/watch?v=SDN1SrgL3qk I was very proud of this part and the song suits them amazingly well which is why I decided to extend it. Turns out the rest of the song was hell to edit and the quality declined massively lol. However this is the first time I made a LA coloring myself that was worth keeping. It's not amazing, but it's also not terrible, so that's a win in my book lol. And at the end of the day, I really just wanted to indulge in all of their good scenes some more. They just bring me so much joy, so even if the result isn't amazing, I had alot of fun and that counts!

Dedications: Fra - this started as a birthday gift for you and I already teased this to you, so it's finally here! Even tho it's not nearly as good as the part I did originally, I hope you'll enjoy this notheless! Emma - My FRIENDS partner in crime, I love how we keep editing this show for and with each other, and everytime you edit it, it puts a smile on my face. Caty - I will never ever get over that breathtaking Mondler part you edited for my birthday. You're also the loveliest person I know, so ey, this goes out to you as well!

Happy Pokeshipping Day everyone~
I'm happy I get to share this video with all of you today! Pokeshipping Day gets me so excited each year because even after 20+ years, my love for this ship is still going strong as ever. I really wanted to make something somewhat fx-ish this year because my last PS edits were all raw and I was getting a bit tired of that. Thankfully I stumbled upon this song just in time and inspo just struck me. I had so much fun with this video, the style was very easy to do and I think it really captures those oldschool fx vibes I was going for! Also look at how dang cute my dorks are.
I will never get tired of Pokeshipping, or of celebrating them each year. Shoutout to everyone who participated in either PS week or PS day, it was a blast watching all these edits pop up during the past week! And special shoutout to Dicey for continuing to hold up the Pokeshipping torch each year and going above and beyond to shower them with love.
I will link some other PS day edits here later today so make sure to check back and check them out:

Happy birthday Nina! I bet this comes as much of a surprise to you as it did to me. A while back I realized I really want to edit some proper Roey video, and when this song hit me over the head and I realized it was super close to your birthday I thought it would make sense to get it done in time for you. :) You were the person that turned these two from a side ship I enjoyed into one I am massively passionate about and each time you upload a video with them you make me love them even more, so I really hope you'll enjoy this, too!
That said - This song is completely and utterly overused, but I just can't get over how perfectly it fits Roey's entire story arc. It really describes their struggles of wanting to be with the other person but not wanting to hurt Ross so they're trying to hide it away. Plus it has the perfect balance of cutesy and angst for them haha. So here we go again. I propably should've settled for either more or less overlays for this video and I feel it turned out a bit unbalanced in that regard, but I was trying to work with some new things so I was scared over overdoing them haha. It is what it is tho, so I hope it's not too noticable. Vegas also gave me some trouble with this so that didn't help. But I very much enjoyed editing this and I'm not too unhappy with the outcome after all. Oh and also this song has blue/pink vibes and I will use that color combination every single time I edit with it. Try to stop me.

Happy Birthday Saph! Now that you’ve finished watching updated desc here we go haha. I won’t say much this time around since I already did say quite a bit in the doc you’ll find below but! Happy birthday again ilysm! I hope we managed to surprise you a bit with the direction we took your gift this year! With everything going on I suggested something empowering with your favorite characters this time around and then Dina suggested going for something that represents our friendships instead, so here we are. Hope it puts a smile on your face. Also, to highlight how much of a collaborative experience this whole things was, while Dina & I worked together to settle on a theme, the song was a collaborative effort between Dicey and Gany! Dicey suggested something by Lauv, and then Gany found this song which I hope you love considering it’s two artists you like. So yeah point is, we all care about you a lot and wanted to make you the most thoughtful gift this year in which I hope we succeeded. :)

Woooh, hello to Dina & I's new collab! (Suprisingly we didn't do a bunch of 1on1 collabs so far ahaha)
After Fearless Taylor's Version dropped I knew I had to edit this version of the song because damn?! I'm a sucker for Piano versions aha. So I dropped it in Skype Crew chat and Dina agreed to work on it with me. After talking about it some we ended up settling on this as a "salt collab" meaning we ended up editing the ships we're most salty about to this day lol. Because man do we have a lot of salt for some ships. Roey will forever be my biggest loss when it comes to ships and Bracelet? Needless to say I haven't continued ARC-V since they sunk because they way in which it happened? 2 years later I'm still angry pft.
Despite all the negative emotions behind this, the collab turned out beautiful tho, and I'm so happy I finally got to work with Dina again!

Happy Contestshipping Day woooh! I can't believe I almost had to miss out on the worm this year. Usually Contest edits come to me easily, but somehow this year I've been cycling through a billion songs and nothing felt right. I remembered this one last minute and going for a VHS vibe got me super motivated so I'm really glad I managed to pull through! Not breaking my tradition after all :)
So yeah. This is the usual angsty Contest content you know me for, tho in my defense I did edit some happy Contestshipping for DLRP's CS day mep this year :) So go check that one out as well!!!
I've been talking a lot about these two under all my old CS day videos so I'm not gonna go there again, but they will always be one of my all time favorite PokeAni ships and I will never get tired of creating content for them!
Dedicated to Missy. I love you so much!!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my annual mep collection. June has been birthday madness so I've been editing a whole lot lately, thus this collection turned out quite long EVEN THO I cut out a lot of parts lol. That said, some of my all time favorite parts are in here, so I am very proud of this collection overall. So I really hope you enjoy all of these! :) I'm super happy I got to collab with a lot of people this time around - and also that I went back to editing a lot more Pokemon again this time, and with a wide variety of ships too haha. Told you I'll never move on from Pokemon editing entierly! (Also damn when did I start masking so much lmao, sent help for my wrist).
Wooh! It's my birthday yet again? Man, this past year has been basically non-existent lol. Anyway, as I did the past two years, I decided to host yet another birthday collab this year. I really love doing those so much, not only is it fun to see so many people edit my favorite ships, but also it's such a good way to bond with people every year. This year's was kind of spontanous, actually I didn't intented to host one and then suddenly I REALLY wanted to make one with this song because after a year, I still haven't been able to get over the newest ATL album whoops.
Thank you everyone for joining me with this once again, this was so much fun and the result is so adorable! I know it's not a comfortable style for most of you so I appreciate the effort everyone put into their parts. :' ) I added a few voiceovers so the parts with the VOs flow better, I hope everyone's okay with that. :)
P.S. Funfact, after hosting this, Gigi and I started fangirling over ATL and decided to do another collab with it for our shared Birthday, so go check that out as well :) youtube.com/watch?v=uaCXAuLPk2s

(Simp thumbnail for y'all, thank me later.) Remember my mep hiatus? Yeah no. Uni was stressful and editing was my one proper outlet so who needs to be adulting when I can instead binge edit mep parts hahaha.
These were parts from the start of the year up until now. I went through some kind of transitioning phase with my raw editing and I really like where I ended up at, but that also means that some of the middle parts are a bit of a mess sometimes. :D As for fx, I did struggle with a lot of those parts, as my friends can confirm haha. A lot of these were either really challenging themes/styles, or hard color schemes. I also tried out some new things throught a lot of those, so while a lot of these parts are a bit of a mess in how they turned out, I'm proud of most of these just because of how much I learned when working on them. :)
Not sure when I'll be back with uploads (I have a few things in the works but uni is still busy so who knows), but I'll see y'all around then!
Initially wanted to edit Shallan to this but she doesn't have enough art so I figured he fits just as well. "I'm so done with this" Jonas is the biggest mood man, I love this guy so much. Def one of my favorite characters at this point, please let him be happy. PLEASE. I'm happy I finally got to edit him and I actually think I did a pretty decent job here despite the vent nature of this lol. That said, I do have a bigger project planned out for him that I just don't feel confident enough to tackle with my current skills (haven't touched the project file in months rip), but maybe one day.. unless you're a DARK editor and will let me pay you to make it happen, just hit me up (yes, I AM dead serious here).
Also, kinda sad I avoided SUPER heavy spoilers in this because the song screams certain things, but just in case people don't actually listen to me and watch this anyway I want to avoid giving away all the good spoilers lol. Maybe one day I'll make a serious thing out of this where I don't avoid them, who knows eh?

-vent part here feel free to skip lol- Idk man. This song just hits differently lately. Stressed out, burned out. I need a fucking break from worrying about my future and doing things that make me miserable just because there's no alternative thanks to a damn pandemic. There's so many options, but non of them seem possible, and I don't even know if I'm unhappy because it's Covid and we all are, or because I'm ACTUALLY unhappy with where I am and what I'm doing. I just can't tell anymore. My brain is a mess, I can't study because nothing will stick, but I can't quit either because wtf else am I supposed to do? I'm stuck here and it's driving me crazy.【 SKYPE CREW 】TOUNGE TIEDPokeLSouma2021-03-10 | "Could someone tell me what to say to just make you stay?"

Turn on CCs for subtitles!
I'm not sure if anyone will even watch this since it's the most random media ever but oh well – Today was kind of a shit day so I decided to edit something comforting to help me relax and since I finally found a download link for this movie a few weeks back and have been itching to edit them, here we go!
Ronja has been my favorite book as a kid up until my teens, and it's something I can always return to to make me feel warm and at home. I love Ronja's and Birk's friendship so much, and looking back at it now - are we really surprised? They have my favorite story trope (found family) and also fit my typical type in ships - altho I never shipped them romantically haha.
The song on the other hand just goes so well with these two, and while it's not the type of song I'm good with for liveaction, it's one I've wanted to edit for a long, long time (I actually started a video with it back when NagiAsu was airing, but that project got lost when my laptop died.. I'm still sad). Overall this is far from a perfect edit for many reasons (the lack of scenes where these two don't talk, the fact that I don't know ANY swedish whatsoever to get proper voiceovers done, the TERRIBLE clip quality...), but I hope maybe I can share some of my undying love for these two with you all. And if you're interested and neither a book- nor liveaction person, there's a ghibli series out there that is a pretty decent adaption (altho the animation is somewhat painful).
This movie is super old, so finding a coloring that makes the scenes look a little less terrible was quite a challenge for sure, but I'm quite happy with how it looks now. :)
Dedication goes out to the Merphy Discord! Y'all won't see this as I don't share my editing over there and I don't think anyone is aware of this account - but thanks for being there to share my love for book and for all the motivation to keep reading :)

My match was Azy and ofc that meant I had to edit HeiShin. Which actually made me very happy because I've been planning to edit them for a while. It also meant I got to mess with a manip a bit because I wanted to make sure to kill her properly with this edit, which hopefully succeeded. So take some cute kissing boyfriends! :D Picking a song was a bit harder, but in the end I felt like this one worked super well for this ship, so that ended up being my pick and I decided to go for some sweet and teasy scenes! :)

So a few months ago I got the urge to host a book couples MEP, and I thought it would be a total flop, as book ships generally don't have a lot of content to work with - to my surprised it actually turned out to be more popular than I expected, and I almost considered extending this by a few more parts!
I'm honestly in love with the result, tho. The theme was book-ish or fairytale style effects and I love seeing all the different takes on the theme! This mep is so diverse yet it looks so nice together! Tho admittedly it was the hardest MEP I ever had to put together in terms of part flow :D I also love the variety of books in this MEP, from YA to adult, fantasy over contemporary to classics and from different countries, I love seeing so many different book genres represented here (and definitely will have to check out the ones I haven't read yet hahaha).
I also want to give a huge thanks for everyone who worked so hard on their parts and especially to my 3 wonderful backups for stopping me from going mad! I owe you big time! This will also be the last mep I'm hosting on this channel for a while. I love hosting them and work together with so many talented people, but I just need a break from all the stress of hunting people down for a while ^^''
Please enjoy and sub all the awesome editors who took part in this!

I know Skype Crew didn’t have the best track record with MEPs for you in the past, so I wanted to make sure this year you get our cumulative 10 years of editing experience + a bunch of your other super talented friends to make up for it with the most beautiful mep! This was on a rather short notice so I’m thankful everybody managed to get their parts done in time and create something so beautiful with your favorite ships & characters. Then I made everyone struggle with the color scheme but I wanted something popping, I’m so sorry guys. :’ D
But anyway, I really hope you enjoy this a lot! We all love you so, so much, you’re a wonderful person and deserve nothing but the best for your birthday! ♥
