BEN 10 | How Far Weve Come Witch of Mind 2021-12-27 | Fuck fuck shit cock cum balls shit etc. I can't believe this video got child-locked.WATCH IN HD + HEADPHONES FOR BEST EXPERIENCE. I included a watermark because I spent seven days on this edit and I'm not about to let it potentially be stolen and reuploaded somewhere else.Happy anniversary to Ben 10's first episode, all the way back in 2005! It's been sixteen years, wow. Crazy to think that I've been a fan for the entirety of the classic continuity runtime.This is a remake of an old UAF video that I uploaded over three years ago. Despite it only getting about a thousand views before it got claimed and taken down (my poor editing made it really easy for the YouTube bot to find it), I still, TO THIS DAY, get comments about it, so there, I remade it. This time with the entire classic continuity + new and improved editing. Now please stop asking about it.Things that will get your comment deleted:- Mentioning the reboot at all. As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't exist.- "Why wasn't *insert scene* included?" It's a three-minute long video for a show with 227 episodes — and don't even get me started on the shorts, movies, and specials. Sorry that your personal favorite clips didn't make the cut, bestie. Make your own AMV.- Shipping Ben and Gwen. Those hugs are for sibling purposes ONLY. In this house, we love and respect Ben and Gwen completely platonically.In other news, if the voice overs are too much for you, I would suggest either turning on subtitles or viewing the alternative video that I have on Vimeo. It's the same thing, but with voices only during the instrumentals so that there's no overlap in words. Here's the link: vimeo.com/660178459I'd like to dedicate this AMV to Kuro the Artist with @TheInkTank. I admit that I don't read his comic (I've only ever interacted with his YouTube content) but it goes without saying that he's had an incredible influence on the fandom and has shaped a lot of my opinions on Ben 10/the way that I interact with the show as a whole. This updated AMV is primarily a gift for him, as he enjoyed the older version a lot, and it's simply too embarrassing for me to think that someone who makes so much good content enjoys an AMV that I made three years ago with 480p quality video. Now I can rest easy at night.My other dedication goes to my friend Dani, aka @Nightjewel-rp1bl here on YouTube! She's been an amazing friend to have in the Ben 10 fandom, and not only are her edits amazing (certainly better than mine), but her art is fantastic, too. Her support towards my work, be it AMVs or fanfiction, has been invaluable. She's a great person and a lovely friend, and I highly suggest checking out her work! She made an animated trailer for my Ben/Rook fic, in full color. It's the definition of a labor of love and it's as incredible as she is. Go support her, because I seriously cannot sing her praises enough!Lastly, as I am a fanfiction writer, I could not celebrate this anniversary without encouraging all of you to read. My own fics are on the table, naturally, but you can also find my full Ben 10 rec list on my Tumblr account, here: karkalicious769.tumblr.com/post/671747271863533568/in-honor-of-ben-10s-sixteen-year-anniversary It has a variety of ships featured and plenty of general fics with a focus on friendship and cool aliens and plot ideas! I will go back and update the list periodically if/when something catches my interest. Sometimes being in the Ben 10 fandom has caused me grief, but it has, without a doubt, been a huge positive impact on my life and I wouldn't trade that time for anything. I'm not super active in the fandom anymore aside from shitposts and finishing the last two chapters of my Ben/Rook fic, but to anyone who read this far, and to content creators especially, I just want to say: Thank you.
Puss & Kitty | Turning Out Witch of Mind 2023-11-12 | I started this edit when the movie came out almost a year ago, lol. Take it, I don't wanna look at it anymore.
Rick Sanchez | Never Love An Anchor Witch of Mind 2023-11-11 | This song is about Rick and Morty, and Rick and Beth. To me.I've been sitting on this for a while and haven't uploaded anything in AGES, so here y'all go. I don't want this WIP anymore.Check our more of my correct music opinions on my Rick playlist: open.spotify.com/playlist/3i9ZfbEqZF5yC2jQp8zUpK?si=99a9b33de5554fb4
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #20 Witch of Mind 2023-11-04 | Jesus, I haven't uploaded anything since January? Where does the time go? My personal life has been so busy, but here's some edits that I'm proud of :p0:09 Sly/Carmelita | Video Games#1) The song is "Video Games" by Lana Del Rey, covered by The Young Professionals. Personally, I GREATLY prefer this cover to the original. The theme was editing with video game franchises... that have animated bits, naturally! So I went with Sly Cooper, using Sly and Carmelita, because I adore them with my whole heart.FULL MEP: TBA0:30 Eve/Rex | Fourth of July#2) This song is "Fourth of July" by Fall Out Boy. This is a MEP that I hosted, and the theme is breakups that have an element of fire/fireworks to them. I used Eve/Rex from Invincible... Very excited to see what more I can edit with season two of the show!FULL MEP: youtu.be/UCp8WlFuFl4?si=1UlfYMpqAggSekEA1:01 Rick/Rick Prime | Animal#3) The song is "Animal" by Neon Trees, covered by Chase Holfelder. Another MEP that I'm hosting! The theme for this one is villain/hero dynamics that are defined by obsession. I went with Rick & Rick Prime from Rick and Morty. Can't wait to see how season seven lets us down about that :3FULL MEP: TBA1:32 Beth/Space Beth | Does Your Husband Know?#4) This is my favorite Fall Out Boy song, "Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet," off of my favorite album! Naturally, I hosted this MEP :3 The theme is infidelity, basically, or a character pining after someone who is in a relationship/married. I used Space Beth for Beth (featuring Jerry) from Rick and Morty, because I think canon selfcest should be celebrated.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=kiIHl_hTghw1:55 Rick | Karma#5) "Karma" by AJR! A personal favorite of mine -- so much so that I did three parts for this MEP, haha. This part features Rick from Rick and Morty. I love seeing him miserable :3FULL MEP: youtu.be/q0J8tk-90mU?si=XQpfqkn4U-zJH4_N
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #19 Witch of Mind 2023-02-01 | Me, two weeks ago: I've sworn off Miraculous Ladybug. Now Rick and Morty is my best friend.Me now: Well, shit.Anyway, edits! Some of these are really old, I just... Forgot to upload anything, haha.#1) The song is "Talk Fast" by 5 Seconds of Summer. The theme is relationships that were short-lived, so I went with Finn/Huntress Wizard from Adventure Time because I think they were really cute!FULL MEP: youtu.be/dTgu5FJCxYE?si=0mK0FTGz6KUTy9DD#2) The song is "My Heart Still Beats" by Maria Mena. (Side note: she's criminally underrated, please listen to this album immediately.) The theme is betrayal, and since I had just finished watching Invincible at this time, I obviously had to go with Nolan & Mark for this one. Really looking forward to season two, haha.FULL MEP: TBA#3) The song is "Moral of the Story" by Ashe. The theme is breakups! I used Nolan/Debbie from Invincible. (I could treat Debbie right...)FULL MEP: TBA#4) The song is "I Hate the Homecoming Queen" by Emily Osment. The theme is popular girl/outcast girl ships. I used Delancy/Blaire from Barbie: Princess Charm School, because I love that movie (and I didn't want to dredge up the footage to use Paulina and Sam from Danny Phantom, whoops). Side note: I found out after the MEP was already finished and posted that these two are cousins! That makes me like the ship more, honestly. I love them.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=1hcxZ7TSMPw#5) The song is "I'm Not Angry Anymore" by Paramore, but it's been pitched down and slowed. (I prefer the original, personally.) The theme is someone who has been hurt in a relationship, so I used Astro & Tenma from the Astro Boy movie. I would have used the anime if this weren't strictly a Western cartoon studio, RIP.FULL MEP: TBA

I recently 100% Terraria on Steam, and I wanted to try beating the game on Master difficulty. Turns out, streaming is pretty fun! I'm gonna keep at it.Voice reveal for anyone who was wondering what I sound like!As for what happened to the first part of this playthrough (building a house, getting set-up, all that good shit), my audio mixing during that stream was so terrible that you can barely hear me, so all of that two hours of footage is unusable.

Atom & Bem | I Found Love Witch of Mind 2022-03-27 | I love queer romances where they both die at the end.What's up, everyone? It's me, back at it again with uploading AMVs for anime that's two decades old. (Which is why this videos highest resolution is 720p, RIP.)I would like to give a sincere congratulations to Osamu Tezuka for crafting a relationship so compelling that people are still shipping it seventy years later. I love Atom and his GNC partner so much. Very cool of them to speed-run falling in love in sixteen minutes. Very cool of ME to speed-run subtitling this special and then putting together this edit in three days.I'm working on other Astro Boy things, but, you know... No promises.

CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #18 Witch of Mind 2022-03-14 | Nothing except Miraculous Ladybug parts! How about that season finale, huh?#1) The song is "Heartworks" by Wingtip. The theme here was just couples who uplift each other. I could have used any side of the love square for that, but I wanted Marinette/Chat Noir specifically for the "roll her eyes" bit. She thinks he's so annoying (affectionate).FULL MEP: TBA#2) This is "Trophy Boy" by Avril Lavigne, Ashley Tisdale, & GEM from the movie Charming. You could probably guess the theme for this one, but yep, it's boys who are desired by many girls! So I picked Adrien because it was so obvious, I had to.FULL MEP: TBA#3) This song is "Blood // Water" by Grandson. The theme for this MEP is end of the world. Since Chat Blanc has so much of that delicious angst, it was an easy pick to just edit with that episode. I'm pretty proud of the way that the glitch effects came out.FULL MEP: TBA#4) This one is "Pretty Face" by PUBLIC. I had some problems with the pacing and writing of "Ephemeral," but it had some of the CUTEST love square scenes of the entire season, and I loved watching Marinette fall in love with Adrien all over again. Since this MEPs theme is "pairings who are complicated by secret identities" it was an obvious choice.FULL MEP: TBA#5) This song is "prom dress" by mxmtoon. The theme is character who got what they wanted, only to realize that it wasn't what they imagined it would be. I picked Chloe, because she got to see her mom, and she got to be a superhero, but... both of those were utter disasters. (Season two Chloe, my beloved... You will be missed.)FULL MEP: TBASupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist

Ben and Rook Speedrun Enemies to Friends to Lovers Witch of Mind 2021-11-28 | This is just a short comp that I made of the first two episodes of Omniverse, because no one can convince me that Rook doesn't have a huge, stupid crush on Ben Tennyson.
Ladybug & Adrien | Shape of You Witch of Mind 2021-10-27 | This is my last edit for Chatober! I sort of failed at spending only an hour on this one, but I didn't spend as long on it as I did for my Ladynoir edit and so I consider that a success. I actually had a surprisingly hard time coming up with a song for Ladrien! (Mostly because I also wanted to edit with a song I haven't edited with before.)Yes, I did only end up using this song so that I could use that one scene from "Chat Blanc" (because I thought it would be funny, and it was).LINKSChatober prompt list: chatober.tumblr.com/post/663761934252916736/chatober-is-a-chat-noir-themed-october-creativeMy Tumblr: karkalicious769.tumblr.com/tagged/chatober2021My prompts on AO3: archiveofourown.org/works/34267135/chapters/85258321#workskinSupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
Marinette & Chat Noir | Easy Way Witch of Mind 2021-10-20 | Another edit for Chatober! Again, I spent only an hour on this edit. I picked this song primarily because of the irony in the title, but it meshes with Marichat the more you look at the lyrics. (That, and the editor in me just liked the rhythm.)Can't wait for Glaciator 2 this Sunday to give me a new balcony scene to edit with.LINKSChatober prompt list: chatober.tumblr.com/post/663761934252916736/chatober-is-a-chat-noir-themed-october-creativeMy Tumblr: karkalicious769.tumblr.com/tagged/chatober2021My prompts on AO3: archiveofourown.org/works/34267135/chapters/85258321#workskinSupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist

Marinette & Adrien | Stupid For You Witch of Mind 2021-10-04 | This is a really short edit, and that's intentional. I only gave myself an hour to edit, and then stopped what I was doing and added coloring to whatever I managed to cobble together during that time.This is for a month-long challenge I'm doing during October, called Chatober. The prompts are themed around Adrien/Chat Noir. For the love square days, I decided that I would do hour-long edits. So expect something similar every week for Ladynoir, Marichat, and Ladrien.The rest of the month, I will be doing writing-based prompts on my AO3.LINKSChatober prompt list: chatober.tumblr.com/post/663761934252916736/chatober-is-a-chat-noir-themed-october-creativeMy Tumblr: karkalicious769.tumblr.com/tagged/chatober2021My prompts on AO3: archiveofourown.org/works/34267135/chapters/85258321#workskinSupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
Ladybug & Chat Noir | Helicopter Witch of Mind 2021-09-11 | !! WATCH IN HD !!AKA, a montage of Chat giving Ladybug a heart attack. I noticed that her reaction to him dying/getting hurt gets stronger every time it happens. Ah. She's in love. I hope that she accepts it before season four blows up in her face, RIP.Anyway, I edited this because I miss them and season four is making me sad. Also, I saw someone do some art on Tumblr based on this song, and I couldn't find it anywhere, but this song fits them so well so I figured that I'd go ahead and edit with it.Ugh, they're so cute. Ladynoir supremacy.You can support me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #17 Witch of Mind 2021-08-31 | Wow, all except for one is Adventure Time. I'd apologize for having Miraculous Ladybug at all, but there's going to be more of it, so no sense in apologizing when I'm clearly not sorry.#1/2) This is the same song: "Normal" by Sasha Alex Sloan. The theme is characters who don't feel like the belong. I chose Adrien from Miraculous Ladybug because season four is slowly running my heart through a wood chipper, and Finn from Adventure Time because remember that one time he got raped by LSP in the woods? Yeah. What the fuck. Anyway, I guess I just have a thing for sad blond boys with daddy issues.FULL MEP: TBA#3) The song is "Men Are Trash" by Scotty Sire. The theme for this one is bad boys who have a soft spot for one person. I picked Fionna/Marshell Lee from Adventure Time because I can't take this song seriously.FULL MEP: TBA#4) The song is "Bitter Water" by The Oh Hellos. The theme is on/off relationships, so of course, because I'm on an Adventure Time kick, I had to pick Marceline/Bubblegum. I'm so glad that they got their happy ending.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=QnztlT6UG1I#5) The song is "Fourth of July" by Fall Out Boy. I'm hosting this MEP, and I hope to have it done for the actual holiday in 2022! The theme is breakups that have an element of fire/fireworks involved. I'm cheating by using Flame Princess and Finn, but they did meet under some fireworks, so...FULL MEP: youtu.be/UCp8WlFuFl4?si=E2V6a43O4EWOX97BSupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
Adrien | Look Whos Inside Again Witch of Mind 2021-08-24 | This 100% already exists, but this song is too good for him for me to not edit with it.Anyway. I haven't edited with Miraculous since I was in, like, middle school, I think. And I'm still just as ashamed as I was then. (Crossing my fingers that season four gives us more Adrien angst, though. I want him to snap.)What she says: I'm fine.What she means: I was watching Miraculous and there's a surprising amount of symbolism with Adrien's right hand (his ring hand) when it comes to his father, be it intentional or not. He touches his ring when talking to his father, his fidgeting displaying clear insecurity. Beyond that, in the scene where Gabriel watches Emilie's movie with Adrien, he makes sure to put his hand over top Adrien's right one, hiding his ring. This metaphor for smothering Adrien's freedom (along with the slow pan down to the basement) gives sinister implications to what the show frames as a "tender" moment between father and son. Furthermore, when Adrien is playing the piano for his father, the hand that plays a sour note and upsets Gabriel is his right hand. His ring hand, again. (Worth noting that Gabriel signals for him to stop playing by raising his left hand.) After being grounded for the aforementioned "poor performance," Adrien begins to sadly play again with his left hand. To continue, when Adrien and Gabriel play the piano together, the camera focuses on Adrien's left hand, whereas when he plays with Plagg, Adrien plays with his right hand. He scrolls through his phone, looking at pictures of his mom, with his left hand. (I don't trust that Emilie was as loving and sweet as Adrien says she was.) He wipes away his tears over missing Emilie with his left hand. He holds his medal, asking for his father's approval, with his left hand. When Chat Noir is trying to put distance between himself and Hawk Moth, he reaches out with his right hand, because the ring represents safety and happiness for him. Anyway, when is this poor kid getting adopted?
Finn & Jake | A Match Into Water Witch of Mind 2021-08-22 | I realize that this video is short, but oh well. I had planned on doing more of the song, but my inspiration/motivation for this edit has basically been non-existent. I still do really like this edit, though, and my girlfriend loves the song, so I decided that I might as well upload what I have.Song is "A Match Into Water" by Pierce the Veil. This song is about the singer waiting at his friend's bedside as she recovers from cancer, hoping that she'll wake up. The references to God as a "vulture" just really made me think of Finn and Jake. As far as I care, they're both immortal and alive and happy together."Together Again" really hurt me.
Finn & Fern | All I Need is You Witch of Mind 2021-06-23 | I've been back into Adventure Time, which means, of course, I have to edit with it. I think my favorite love interest of Finn's is Flame Princess, but then I picked to edit with these two for a MEP and accidentally started to ship them during the process.Too bad that Fern died in the series finale (spoiler).Anyway, don't point out in the comments that they're the same person. I'm aware of that, I just don't have boring taste in ships.I've recently moved, so my set-up and internet connection are both absolutely atrocious. This video took twice as long as it should have on all fronts. So if it seems lazy, that's why.The song is "Moscow" by Autoheart. I edit with Sony Vegas Pro 14.Support me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
Black Butler | Sleepsong Witch of Mind 2021-06-03 | WATCH IN HD. (I did not pirate the entirety of Black Butler for people to not watch this edit in HD.)(I also added closed captions for the dialogue bits, for those who have trouble making out the words overlayed behind the music.)I am a simple woman: I discover HD downloads of Black Butler, and I must edit with them. Also, I've noticed that Book of Murder tends to be the least edited with in the AMV community, so I took footage exclusively from there, minus a shot or two from Book of Circus that I thought looked nice.This song, I picked because it's on the playlist I made for Ciel and I really liked it for him. As well as the others characters that I sprinkled into this AMV. I really like Arthur — I thought that it was funny that he figured out in two days what the servants couldn't piece together in two years.This edit is watermarked for my own peace of mind. I very rarely edit with the entire song anymore, and I will not have this one stolen and posted somewhere else without credit, no matter how slim the chance is.Some of the shots are more low effort than others, but I was going for a different sort of vibe with this edit, so sorry if it looks low effort.This edit took me a week, and I edit with Sony Vegas Pro 14.Support me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
SMP Live (2019) | Pinky Promising Each Other in Minecraft Witch of Mind 2021-05-21 | This is one of my favorite clips from SMP Live, and although Carson features a lot of this bit on his own channel, most of my favorite lines were left out so I wanted to edit a smaller version of just this conversation. That, and I wanted to add text, since the three of them often talk over each other.I know I mostly upload AMVs, but this is my channel so I can do what I want.View the full VOD here: youtube.com/watch?v=c8F-5sM-OfE This bit begins at 57:45CallMeCarson: youtube.com/c/CallMeCarson/featuredJSchlatt: youtube.com/c/jschlattLIVE/featuredAztrosist: youtube.com/c/Aztrosist/featuredI own none of this, obviously.

CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #16 Witch of Mind 2021-05-19 | Wow, every part is a different fandom! Haven't done that in a while. Currently coping with the death of my cat, so editing helps get my mind off of things.#1) The song is "Ophelia" by The Lumineers. The theme is unrequired/one-sided love, so I went with Ben/Rook from Ben 10: Omniverse because they're my favorite unrequited pairing. And because I was trying to get inspiration to write the next chapter of my fanfic involving them.FULL MEP: youtu.be/YftL8B2qFPc?si=t9Nf2-F-r1GDFyR-#2) The song is "Talk Too Much" by COIN. The theme is Talkative Character/Down-to-Earth Character. So I went with Aang/Katara from Avatar: the Last Airbender because I love them and would die for them.FULL MEP: TBA#3/4) This is the same song: "drivers license" by Olivia Rodrigo. I'm hosting this MEP! It's about breakups, with the only catch being that the shows/pairings have to have a largely suburban setting. So I picked Phineas/Isabella from Phineas and Ferb for the first part and Kim/Ron from Kim Possible for the second. Two pairings that I love, but don't edit with enough.FULL MEP: TBA#5/6) This is the same song: "Criminal" by Britney Spears. The theme is ships involving a male villain (redeemed villains count). I picked Doyle/Abbey from The Secret Saturdays for the first part (because I've wanted to edit with them to this song for ages), and Rob/Gumball from The Amazing World of Gumball for the second (because I thought it would be funny, and it was).FULL MEP: TBASupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
(ANTI) Ben & Kai | Moral of the Story Witch of Mind 2021-04-25 | This is just a quick vent/I also wanted to edit with this song. It's a simple edit because I wanted to mess around with a new effect (the white outlines overlay). Is it too much? I like it, but I'm not sure. I've wanted to do something similar to it for a while now.You ever just look at the CDC's statistics for male victims of domestic abuse and get really, really angry? No one gives a shit about male victims. Women can get away with so much bullshit and I hate it. Women can be just as bad to their partners as men can be, and to insist otherwise is sexist.On a more light-hearted note, it's 2021 and I still hate Kai. She's physically and mentally abusive. You can argue with me in the comments if you want, but you're wrong and I will destroy you. Ben deserved a better "endgame" love interest. If you can't understand why, then try rewatching this edit again. I can't watch some of these episodes without taking a break. They fill me with so much rage.
Hiccup & Viggo | Toy Soldiers Witch of Mind 2021-04-08 | I haven't uploaded in a hot minute, but I did a MEP part with these two for CCS, and I had so much fucking footage that I decided to just extend it. So, bam. I've got a thing for niche character dynamics, and one of my favorites is apparently "protagonist who's very passionate about their ideals and morals" vs "antagonist that's stepping all over their ideals, but only in the name of meeting a bottom line, not because they actually care," leading to them both becoming more and more obsessed with taking each other down.Spiritually, this is a KrayLio (Promare) edit. Except Studio Trigger is run by a bunch of cowards who didn't give those two enough screen time for me to edit properly with them.Anyway, Viggo is the best villain in the HTTYD franchise. No, I'm not taking constructive criticism. Song is "Toy Soldiers" by Marianas Trench.This edit took me three(-ish) days, and I edit with Sony Vegas Pro 14.Support me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #15 Witch of Mind 2021-03-06 | Wow, look at all of these old cartoons without a full-screen ratio... Finding creative ways to edit these has certainly been a challenge. I've been rewatching Foster's Home, and wow, Bloo is such a piece of shit. Mac deserves a better best friend. That being said, Bloo is absolutely gay for him and needs to get his shit together. Anyway...#1) "Butterflies" by Zendaya, with the theme being break-ups. I picked Nigel/Lizzie from Codename: Kids Next Door because I had just finished watching Operation: G.I.R.L.F.R.I.E.N.D. and they were giving me feelings again... I like seeing this sort of relationship in media, though — two people who love each other very much but want very different things in a relationship and, ultimately, can't make each other happy as a result. It's everything that Ben/Julie from Ben 10 could have been if the writers had any idea how to write an emotionally complex/compelling relationship.FULL MEP: TBA#2) "She's Got You High" by Mumm-Ra. The theme is just relationships with lots of blushing! I went with Kuki/Wally from KND because they make me soft. I'm a sucker for childhood crushes.FULL MEP: TBA#3) "we fell in love in october" by girl in red, with the theme being just femslash ships! I'm hosting this MEP, and I hope to have it out by this October. It's in the song title and everything. The pairing I picked is Heather/Astrid from Race to the Edge. I actually edited this months ago, before my computer crashed and I lost it. I was putting off remaking it because I HATE reediting. But that's alright, it came out even better the second time around.FULL MEP: youtu.be/hSuExYijXLg?si=zTBEXOtc7qr-UTQ1#4) "The Mother We Share" by CHVRCHES. The theme is just supposed to be siblings, but the song hit me as siblings who have a dysfunctional relationship, so I went with Zuko & Azula from Avatar: The Last Airbender. I love them both so much... Their relationship makes me sad.FULL MEP: youtu.be/9oSIN7WRmYM?si=JYRqBoONuUZzTHsX#5/6) This is the same song: "Obsession" by Sky Ferreira. I'm hosting this MEP! The theme for this one is attention whores, or characters that always have to be the center of attention. I went with Bloo from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends as my first part (featuring a very exasperated Mac), and Lizzie from KND (featuring Nigel and Jimmy).FULL MEP: TBASupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
Nigel & Chad | The Devil Within Witch of Mind 2021-02-26 | Christ, this show is almost twenty years old. I feel so unwilling to accept that.Anyway, I've been rewatching Codename: Kids Next Door recently, for the first time since I was in middle school. These kids are still out here making me sad. And the way that Nigel's and Chad's relationship fell apart over the seasons was so well-done, I love their dynamic. I just wish we could have gotten a final confrontation between them once Nigel learned the truth.More KND edits are a possibility, but I won't make any promises. At this point, my YouTube channel is just an elaborate dump for my current hyperfixation.Song is "The Devil Within" by Digital Daggers.Support me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #14 Witch of Mind 2021-02-16 | Haven't done one of these in a while. Sorry, lads, it's been nothing but Promare brainrot. #1) "Still Into You" by Paramore. I did another part for this one a while ago, but I recently picked up a second one. This is a MEP that I'm hosting! Two years in the making, oof. Anyway, I picked Doc/Drew from The Secret Saturdays, because the theme is couples who have been together for a while and I just couldn't resist my favorite cartoon couple.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=jTGMGgTBnEU#2&3) "Heaven Knows" by Five For Fighting. The theme is couples where one person is dead/dying (can be AU if you have the footage for it). For the first part, I picked Dracula/Lisa from Castlevania. And in a complete shift one tone, I also picked Eugene/Rapunzel from Tangled: the Series. Quick side note: I've been watching Tangled, and I am so fucking bamboozled by the amount of Cass/Rapunzel content. Disney gave us one of the best, cutest, and most healthy relationships I've ever seen when they wrote Eugene and Rapunzel, and y'all only want lesbians. This is a disgrace. FULL MEP: TBA#4) "Hide and Seek," English cover by Lizz Robinett. I'm hosting this MEP! The theme is just creepy shit since we hope to have this one out for Halloween this year. I picked some scenes from Camp Camp. The season four episode where all of the fucked-up faces come from was legit more nerve-wracking than most high-budget horror movies. Incredible. I don't know why Rooster Teeth hasn't put season four on YouTube after almost four years, but whatever. Aside from Camp Camp, everything they make is pretty much garbage, anyway.FULL MEP: youtu.be/QLygdjqltyo?si=_LMuuFxiU3MZZSCG#5) "Bitter Water" by The Oh Hellos. The theme is on/off couples, so I picked Ben/Julie from Ben: 10. My poor boy... He deserved better.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=QnztlT6UG1I#6) "Dead Mom" by Beetlejuice Original Broadway Cast Recording Ensemble and Sophia Anne Caruso. I think you guys can figure out the theme from the title. I picked Marceline from Adventure Time. I don't keep up with Adventure Time, but I watched Obsidian and started bawling. I'm so proud of Marceline, confronting her trauma in a healthy way and bettering her rekindled relationship with Bubblegum as a result... Good for them. I hope they have a long eternity together.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=y488NDuldUsSupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilist
Ben & Rook | Follow You Witch of Mind 2020-11-19 | Wow, it's been a hot minute since I edited with images instead of video. I hope it turned out well anyway, because I think it looks great!The backstory for this video is that, about a year ago, I started writing a slow burn Rook/Ben fanfiction. The plot was a simple Groundhog Day AU: one day, Ben dies in a tragic, completely preventable accident and, the next morning, Rook wakes up to find that everything has reset and he's the only one who notices the looping. And so the loop continues. I was surprised by how much positive attention it received! But, to be fair, other than a handful of really good writers, this fandom is severely lacking in quality Rook/Ben content. I got a lot of regular readers for this fic very quickly.Which brings me to Dani. She's been featured on this channel before, as the person with who I did a Ben 10 editing collab. I also edited a Rook/Ben Secret Santa present for her during Christmas last year. Her channel is Night_jewel if any of you want to check out her stuff, and she's a fantastic editor!Anyway, she really liked my fanfiction. She liked it enough to create a forty page comic of the first chapter, in full color, for absolutely free. I don't think she's gotten the recognition she deserves for the months of work that she put into this so I've linked her posts for the comic on Tumblr down below. Please, if nothing else, give her a reblog. She deserves that and more. Thank you so much, Dani! I love the work you've done and you're a great friend.==LINKS==Read the ongoing fanfic here!: archiveofourown.org/works/21427162/chapters/51054019 And also here: fanfiction.net/s/13447644/1/Cross-Your-Heart-and-Hope-to-DieThe comic is posted here!: 1: slowburnhana.tumblr.com/post/634969710193213440/based-on-the-work-of-karkalicious769-here-is-a2: slowburnhana.tumblr.com/post/634970078211899392/previous-part-2-next3: slowburnhana.tumblr.com/post/634970362757693440/previous-part-3-next4: slowburnhana.tumblr.com/post/634970613521530880/previous-part-4-next5: slowburnhana.tumblr.com/post/634970937025052672/previous-part-5-honestly-this-comic-dont-makeOur Ben 10 editing collab: youtube.com/watch?v=lvwuKV9nC48&ab_channel=WitchofMindRook/Ben Secret Santa Gift: youtube.com/watch?v=yXsir5ZEnDw&ab_channel=WitchofMindDani also has her commissions open, and she obviously does great work, so check out her prices!: slowburnhana.tumblr.com/post/631913310402609152/im-opening-comissions-d-i-love-ben-10-dcSupport me on Ko-fi if you want: ko-fi.com/msnihilistThe song is "Follow You" by Bring Me The Horizon. The reason for choosing this song is because it was one of the main songs that inspired this fanfiction at the very beginning, and the song that I eventually used to name the fic. I've always wanted to edit with Rook/Ben to this song and, thanks to Dani, I finally had the material to do it.EDIT (Jan. 2nd, 2020): Thanks for 1k views! I would never have expected that for an edit based off of a fanfiction.
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #13 Witch of Mind 2020-11-11 | I changed up my transition template for between parts! The song I used is "Wine Red" (Tommie Sunshine's Brooklyn Fire Retouch) by The Hush Sound.Anyway, I had these parts done for a while now, I was just too lazy to bother uploading them. But, hey, each part is a different fandom! Finally, I'm expanding my interests. Here we go.#1) The song is "Last of the Real Ones" by Fall Out Boy, with the theme being just to follow the lyrics. I edited with the last five minutes of the Generator Rex finale episode because I rewatched it recently and was feeling soft for it. This song is technically a love song, so my part doesn't mesh in very well, but whatever. FULL MEP: youtu.be/eU-SIxvAsbQ?si=XItjLKacUJWiAAOA#2) The song is "Golden" by Fall Out Boy, and this is a MEP that I'm hosting! The theme is tragic villains, and/or villains trying to redeem themselves and facing backlash from their peers. I chose Doyle from The Secret Saturdays to edit with because I always thought that he had a really organic redemption arc that makes me sad, and happy that this show had such excellent writing.FULL MEP: youtu.be/DNwshacm8Rw?si=AyHX0CcykFVxw_9s#3) This song is "Headfirst Slide Into Cooperstown On A Bad Bet" by Fall Out Boy. (Are you noticing a pattern here?) I'm also hosting this one! The theme is Character A is in love with Character B (who's with Character C), and is unhappy with their role being reduced to sitting on the sidelines, trapped in a shameful affair. I picked Aang for Katara (featuring Zuko) from Avatar: The Last Airbender because... I just like editing with Aang and Katara. As a sidenote, this is my favorite FOB song and you should absolutely listen to the full thing if you haven't before, because it is a goddamn crime that this whole album didn't blow up. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=kiIHl_hTghw#4) This song is "Hurt" by Johnny Cash. The theme is characters who die, so I picked Viggo from Dragons: Race to the Edge. (Uh, mild spoiler.) It just really hit me whenever I rewatched, how Viggo has been untrustworthy and double-crossing people from the very beginning but, in the end, he had enough of a heart left to do a complete turnaround and give his life for Hiccup. Such a good episode.FULL MEP: TBA#5&6) I picked two side-by-side parts for this MEP! The song is "How To Be A Heartbreaker" by MARINA. The theme is characters who have multiple love interests, so I picked Amy from Futurama (featuring Bender, Fry, Kif, and Zapp (plus some random dude she showed her panties to)), as well as Ben from Ben 10 (featuring Julie, Kai, Attea, Looma, and Ester (and that's not even all of them)). These parts were a lot of fun, because I love this song! I can't wait for the full MEP to be done, I think it'll be really fun to watch.FULL MEP: TBASee you all again in a month!

CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #12 Witch of Mind 2020-09-21 | Yes, there's a lot of My Little Pony in this one. No, I'm not apologizing. #1) The song is "Mr. Blue" by Catherine Feeny. The theme is things calming down after its been tough (season/series finale material). I went with Avatar because I'm really soft for how nicely everything tied off after all these kids had to deal with. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=-JkEmAnt4D4#2) The song is "About Love" by MARINA. This theme was teenage couples — kids who don't have a lot of experience but know that they're in love. I picked Applejack/Rarity from Equestria Girls because... okay, look. Listen. Friends can be as touchy-feely as they like, I don't care, but all of the blushing and the side-eyes and the constantly hanging off of each other was too much for me. These two are canon, fuck Hasbro, this is the hill I will die on. Go watch the Rollercoaster of Friendship special (full thing is on YouTube for free) and tell me that's not a love story, I dare you. FULL MEP: youtu.be/ApiZ-EP36nk#3/4) This song is "Competiton" by Little Mix. The theme is rival to lovers ship, basically a soft version of enemies to lovers. I did two parts for this one. First I went with Sunset Shimmer/"Human World" Twilight from Equestria Girls because I just really like the vibes that the scenes with them had and wish they were more of a focus in that movie. Second, I picked Zak/Wadi from The Secret Saturdays because their little show off contest is one of the cutest and most childish things I've ever seen animated. Pfft, flirting at the age of eleven is so funny...FULL MEP: TBA#5) I've edited this part before, but the song is "Glad He's Gone" by Tove Lo. The theme is pretty simple, a girl is just glad that her friend/crush dumped her shitty boyfriend. I did Sunset/Twilight/Flash from Equestria Girls, just because I really wanted to redo this part. I wasn't happy with it before. And I'm still not entirely sold on it, but... fuck it, it's going up for the final time.FULL MEP: TBA#6) This song is "Breaking Me" by Topic, ft. A7S. Basically, the theme is that Character A is ready to commit to a relationship when Character B has been playing with them the whole time. I went with Applejack/Rarity (again) from Equestria Girls, because, well... it seems I have an OTP now. Huh.FULL MEP: TBAWorking on a proper, full-length video, but this one will do for now! Don't expect another MEP comp any time soon, haha. Support me on Ko-fi if you want. ko-fi.com/missnihilist
Aang & Katara | sad machine. Witch of Mind 2020-09-05 | I'd say this is a WIP, but that implies that I'm going to finish it at some point and I just can't make that promise. I know this edit isn't as technically impressive as my other ones, but I haven't had the time for heavy editing lately. At least this gives me the excuse to focus on the aesthetic aspects of the video. It looks pretty, and that's good enough for me.Anyway, the song is "Sad Machine" by Porter Robinson. I know what the song is actually written about, but damn, just switch the pronouns and it's like it was written for Aang and Katara. How does this happen? I actually wrote an Aang/Katara fanfiction and titled it after this song. Check it out here if you want: archiveofourown.org/works/26258506 (I just love them so much.)And if you like my writing and want to commission me, or just want to support me in general, I opened a Ko-fi account: ko-fi.com/missnihilistHoping to get some more edits out sometime this month but, honestly, who knows?
Jschlatt POV: Every Minute the Lava Rises (w/ Wilbur Soot) Witch of Mind 2020-08-24 | Wilbur's video: youtube.com/watch?v=XCP8UbNDcxQJschlatt's VOD: youtube.com/watch?v=yjA_pQRSMBYSo, I've been watching pretty much all of Jschlatt's videos and streams near obsessively and it' become a problem so I'm hoping to get it out of my system by getting so engrossed in his content that I get sick of it. As long as Schlatt doesn't have a problem with me editing streams that are a year old, anyway.I've watched this particular stream over a dozen times, give or take? And I watch Wilbur's perspective, too, but it sort of sucks that his editing cut out some of the best lines. Schlatt hardly ever edits and uploads his streams, so... here's this, I guess. I hope my editing style isn't annoying. It's not like I got paid for this, I just did it because I felt like it. This isn't at all like my usual content but, well, what can you do? I spent time editing it, so it's going up. That's how it works.Jschlatt is most active on his other channel, jschlattLIVE! youtube.com/channel/UC2mP7il3YV7TxM_3m6U0bwA Go ahead and subscribe there. He hit one million subscribers today and I couldn't be more proud.
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #11 Witch of Mind 2020-08-08 | So, I've been thinking about opening a Ko-fi account. It's sort of like Patreon, for those that haven't heard of it. It has a pretty neat commission feature that I want to try out. But I guess that depends on whether or not anyone is willing to buy from me. I probably wouldn't do commissions for edits, since I'm picky with my source material and music selection, but I've been thinking about accepting writing commissions. I don't know, it's still just an idea right now.Anyway! Onto today's edits.#1/2) This song is "Running Up That Hill," a cover of the original sung by Meg Myers. The theme is battle couples: you know, pairings that fight together stay together. I went with Katara/Aang from Avatar: the Last Airbender and Drew/Doc from The Secret Saturdays because I absolutely fucking adore both of those couples and I'm so glad they're canon.FULL MEP: TBA#3) This song is "Only Us," which is originally a song from the musical Dear Evan Hanson, but covered here by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. Since two men sing this duet, the theme for this MEP is angsty slash ships. I'm hosting this one! I chose Aang/Zuko because I've been rewatching Avatar and the enemies to friends relationship between these two gives me life and I need more content for it.(Side note: Zuko literally only calls Aang "the Avatar" and never by his actual name until the last episode, "Sozin's Comet." Zuko calls Aang by his name only nine times in total. Yes, I counted. It was driving me crazy.)FULL MEP: TBA#4) This song is "Apex Predator" from Mean Girls. The theme is, well... mean girls. I did a part to this MEP a while ago, but I took the last one to close it and ended up editing with Kitten from Teen Titans. Hopefully the full thing will be out soon!FULL MEP: youtu.be/BO09DjdLrTk#5) The song is "Duality" by Set It Off. This is another MEP that I'm hosting. The theme is the evil twin trope! Honestly, it was just an excuse for me to edit with Zak Monday and Zak Saturday from The Secret Saturdays. I love them both so much.FULL MEP: TBA#6) This song is "Karma" by AJR. The theme is characters who have mental health issues/need therapy. I did another part to this MEP that I uploaded a bit ago, but for this one, I went with Zak from The Secret Saturdays. Season two was not kind to that kid. He needs a therapist.FULL MEP: TBAI think this round of edits came out very nicely!EDIT: This upload, like my last one, is also blocked in Denmark! What's going on over there?
Avatar | BLUE. Witch of Mind 2020-08-05 | God, I had to render this video three fucking times to get it like this, and it's still not as good as I want. But I'm tired of rendering it, so it's going up.I was going to use different episodes in this, but "Sozin's Comet" had so much material that I just stuck to that. Maybe I'll end up doing another ATLA AMV in the future? Who can say. In hindsight, this video's coloring is not very "blue." I tried.EDIT: Apparently, this video is blocked in Denmark. How unfortunate.
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #10 Witch of Mind 2020-06-24 | It's been a while since I did one of these, but since I'm back on my Secret Saturdays bullshit, I finally found the inspiration to do some editing again.#1) The song is "I Really Like You" by Carly Rae Jepsen. The theme was "weird" couples who basically just look odd when they stand next to each other. I thought Ferb/Vanessa from Phineas and Ferb would be cute for this theme!FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=Mhmitph1nHE#2) The song is "UWU" by Chevy and this is a MEP that I hosted! The theme is unrequited (or seemingly unrequited) love, so I went with Isabella pining over Phineas from Phineas and Ferb because I've just always had feelings for childhood crushes and puppy love.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=PfpIAy-Lfh8#3) The song is "Hungry Like the Wolf," a cover done by Hidden Citizens. The theme is villains pursuing the hero — not in a romantic way, but very twisted. Argost and Zak from The Secret Saturdays work really well with this because... look, Argost has wanted that kid dead since the first episode. He's been very upfront about it, too. It worked so well with them!FULL MEP: TBA#4) This song is "True Love" by P!nk. The theme for this is love/hate relationships, and I had this part in my to-do list for a while, so I just did a lil' quickie with Marceline/Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time. But hey, I think it turned out nice.FULL MEP: TBA#5) This song is "Runaway" by Against The Current. The theme was side ships, such as relationships that only lasted a few episodes or involved one episode characters. I went with Snotlout/Minden from Dragons: Race to the Edge because I thought their episode was so fucking cute and I wish they had been endgame. They had chemistry.FULL MEP: TBA#6) This song is "Sorry About Your Parents" by Icon For Hire. In case you couldn't tell by the title, the theme is characters with abusive/neglectful parents. I chose Max from Camp Camp because, to be honest, I've been a closeted Camp Camp fan for years and the episode where you find out about Max's parents made me cry. I am fully expecting David to hit them with a chair when/if they ever make an on-screen appearance.FULL MEP: TBAThat's all for this round of parts! See you next time, folks.
Zak Saturday | Pitiful Children Witch of Mind 2020-06-18 | I noticed my last Secret Saturdays edit (from over a year ago, yikes) was getting some comments again and, since I've been rewatching the show, I got hit with the inspiration to finally do another edit for it.For the record, I've never seen or read Be More Chill and I know next to nothing about it, but I really like this song. I think the idea of manipulation applies heavily to Zak and Argost and it's a theme I love to see, so of course, I had to edit with it.In other news, I'm also the new admin of The Secret Saturdays' Wiki! You can find me on there as Miss Nihilist (aka Karkie). If any of you have some free time to kill, there's a lot of maintenance needed. It's a goddamn trainwreck and, as far as I can tell, I'm the only one working on it right now.Other than that, I hope you enjoyed the video! I love this show so fucking much.
Astro Boy | Warriors Witch of Mind 2020-05-28 | An Astro Boy (2003) AMV in 2020? It's more likely than you'd think. Anyway, I'm not sure if I'm entirely happy with how this came out... But it's out! It's mostly the Robotonia arc, but I tried to get some other iconic moments in there. I hope it's enjoyable.I love this show.The song is "Warriors" by Imagine Dragons.
Atom & Uran | My Brother Taught Me How To Swim Witch of Mind 2020-05-12 | Well, it's been three months and I'm still on an Astro Boy kick, so here's this. Sibling dynamics are precious to me and these two (and this song) are so cute.If you accuse this of being a shipping video, I'll fight.Maybe more Astro Boy AMVs in the future? Who can say?
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #9 Witch of Mind 2020-04-05 | It's been a hot minute since I uploaded anything, but inspiration is a fickle mistress. Ah, well. Have another MEP comp. Maybe an actual project in the future, but I'm way beyond making promises. #1) The song is "Bromance" by nigahiga. The theme of this one should be obvious by the lyrics and title of the song — just some bros being dudes. I went with Kevin and Ben from Ben 10 because I always thought that this song worked with them. FULL MEP: TBA#2) This song is "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. I know it's a cover, but I can't find who did it, unfortunately. The theme is focusing on villains and their obsessions. I went with Dagur from Dreamworks Dragons: Defenders of Berk. His obsession is, in this case, killing Hiccup. FULL MEP: youtu.be/i83muEkdPMM#3) The song is "My Happy Ending" by Avril Lavigne. The theme is just supposed to be bad breakups, so I chose Charmcaster and Darkstar from Ben 10 because the episode where they briefly dated made me feel so bad for her... She was so happy.FULL MEP: youtu.be/-SlKxdAIWpY#4) The song for this one is "Take Her From You" by Dev. I'm hosting this MEP! The theme is femslash protagonists/antagonists, with an emphasis on the darker or edgier parts of the relationship. I chose Kim and Shego from Kim Possible for my part because I just love taking every opportunity to edit with them. FULL MEP: youtu.be/Vg2XMlp1J0U#5/6) This song is "I Was An Island" by Allison Weiss. The theme for this one is super simple — just edit with a couple you've never edited with before. I took two parts for this MEP, editing with Phineas and Isabella from Phineas and Ferb, and Raven and Robin from Teen Titans. Both of them are couples that I just adore and I don't know why I haven't edited with them before, but here we go! Hopefully they're more frequent in the future.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=t93McxuouG0
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #8 (Full MEPS Available!) Witch of Mind 2020-02-28 | (Yes, I know the text in the video says #7, just pretended that I rendered it correctly the first time.)It has been a hot minute since I did any MEP parts but, recently, I finally found the inspiration to do some stuff I signed up for! This is also my first video without a Ben 10 part, which is tragic. That will be remedied come the next comp. video.#1) The song is "Enchanted" by Owl City. This is a MEP that I'm hosting! The theme is ships between characters who met poorly, and started off as enemies or just disliking each other. i used Starfire/Robin from Teen Titans because I don't edit with them enough and they're adorable. FULL MEP: youtu.be/qbPGobuzeUM#2) This song is "Hot Problems" cover by Dave Days. This is another MEP that I'm hosting, thought this one is kind of old. I used Doyle from The Secret Saturdays for my second part for reasons that I think are obvious.FULL MEP: youtu.be/YjTd9yX8K2o#3) The song is "Would You Be So Kind?" by dodie. The theme was just cute couples, to celebrate Valentine's Day, so I went with Hiccup/Astrid from Dragons: Race to the Edge, because their relationship is pure and healthy and very well-developed and I love them.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=f8HL152NkQ8#4) This song is "Glad He's Gone" by Tove Lo. The theme is lesbians, obviously, with one of them in a shitty relationship with a guy while the other woman feels that they should be together instead. I used Korra/Asami from The Legend of Korra for this one.FULL MEP: REDACTED#5) The song is "Sleepover" by Hayley Kiyoko. Again, the theme is lesbians, but this one is unrequited. I used Astrid/Heather from Dragons: Race to the Edge just because I think they're cute.FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=_o0HWN5ym0g#6) The song is "The Kids Aren't Alright" by Fall Out Boy. This is my second part for this MEP, but I didn't like my work on the first one, so I went hard this time. I used Danny Phantom, but mostly just Danny, and only one episode, "The Ultimate Enemy." That episode is just very fun to edit with and angst to. Anyway, I'm most proud of this part! I think I did a really good job.FULL MEP: youtu.be/Rt-PWXVbM3kSee you all for the next round of parts!
Atom & Tenma | DEAD HEARTS Witch of Mind 2020-02-02 | Also featuring Tobio and, like, two shots with Dr. Ochanomizu in it. So, I'm back on my bullshit. And by "bullshit," I mean that it's been two years give or take so it's time for me to rewatch all of Astro Boy 2003, reread the manga, and start writing a fanfiction based on the 2009 movie. Have I ever mentioned how much I love Astro Boy? It's my favorite anime/manga series of all time.I did this edit obsessively in about two days and I think it came out pretty well! It's been a while since I edited to a full song, but Astro and Tenma's relationship gives a lot of material to work with. So much that it actually got overwhelming to decide what I wanted to use, but ultimately I think I settled on clips that went with the lyrics and helped show they're dysfunctional relationship. I'm coming to you in the year 2020 to tell everything that Tenma is a bad father. Shocking revelation, I know. I recently found the Japanese version of the anime, with all of those amazing scenes that the English dub cut out. Wow, that dub was awful. I'm considering uploading the Japanese version fully subtitled to YouTube so other people can realize what they've been missing. It would be on a different account, obviously. Otherwise, that's a huge margin for potential copyright strikes. I mean, fifty episodes. God, that's a lot. The picture used for the thumbnail and the video's intro came from here: youtube.com/watch?v=HGhXkZgb90Y&t=69s All other clips are from the Japanese release of the anime. Other credits are given in the video itself. If you find a way to watch Astro Boy, please do. It's so good, I promise. I know the 2009 movie got very mixed reviews, but I love it. Check that out, too. It's easier to get a hold of if you live in America.(This anime aired in 2003. What am I doing with my life?)
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #7 Witch of Mind 2020-01-18 | Turns out that I really like "How to Train Your Dragon"#1) The song is "Crushed" by Rosette. The theme is simply characters who never got together. Little known fact about me, but my favorite way to ship Ben/Rook [Ben 10: Omniverse] is unrequited on Rook's side. I don't really see Ben as being gay or bi in canon, plus unrequited love has endless amounts of angst, so I love it. FULL MEP: TBA#2/3) The song is "Forever" by Billy Raffoul. God, that took so long to find. Anyway, the theme is underappreciated ships. I did Hiccup/Dagur from Race to the Edge because a good chunk of the fandom content for them is genderbent — but only Hiccup, so they're basically forcing it to be a straight relationship. Which is absolutely fucking disgusting and most none of it is well-done, anyway, so this is my protest. The other part is Ben/Ester from Ben 10: Omniverse because I just... always liked Ester. She's cute and can be directly flirty without being a bitch (unlike SOME of Ben's other love interests, not to name any names (but I'm talking about Kai)). FULL MEP: TBA#4) The song is "No Children" by The Mountain Goats. The theme is sort of hard to explain, but it's essentially characters struggling with what "side" they're on. Heather and Dagur, from Race to the Edge, are brother and sister and their back-and-forth dynamic just really seemed to go with this song. FULL MEP: youtu.be/4fiHn_Lglk0#5) The song is "Outsiders" by Against the Current. It has two themes: one, characters that are seen as outcasts, and two, to follow a color scheme in rainbow order. I got yellow-green, so I went with Ben [Ben 10] and Danny [Danny Phantom] because they've both been bullied and feel isolated even in their friend group because of how different they are, plus the obvious connection to green. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=5dX-8HKB9D4#6) The song is "If I Killed Someone For You" by Alec Benjamin. This is a MEP that I'm hosting, actually! The theme is simply unhealthy or dependent relationships, not necessarily abusive or romantic. I went with Jennifer/Carl from Ben 10 because... I mean, Stockholm syndrome fits the theme to a tee. And I always liked Jennifer. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=iiFMZmYazF8
No Place Like Home | VENT Witch of Mind 2020-01-12 | It's just been a really bad couple of days. So, a quick edit with Hiccup from HTTYD because he makes me feel better.
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #6 Witch of Mind 2020-01-04 | That's right — not one, not two, but three edits with The Secret Saturdays. I finally found good excuses to edit with my favorite cartoon. And of course, Ben 10 is in this, because I'm not about to upload a MEP comp that doesn't feature that. #1) The song is "Control" by Halsey. The theme is characters going through shifts/struggles with their mental state. I edited with Zak from The Secret Saturdays because half of season two is just him questioning his sanity. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=1NVYprfHtIY#2) The song is "Lemon Boy" by Cavetown. The theme is slash ships where one guy is very upbeat and the other is grouchy. I went with Fry/Bender from Futurama because I don't edit with this show enough and their friendship always gave me very happy feelings. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=SLtaf5YFiiM#3) The song is "I'm Ready Now" by Dodie. The theme is characters supporting each other through times of personal crisis. I went with Zak and his parents, Doc and Drew, from The Secret Saturdays because their unconditional support of their son is the most wholesome thing I've ever seen on TV. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=njqPJj9NZhE#4) The song is "This is Love" by Air Traffic Controller. The theme is characters with a love/hate relationship. I went with Abbey/Doyle from The Secret Saturdays because I always liked their dynamic and thought that they could have been a great couple if Abbey hadn't betrayed them. FULL MEP: youtu.be/h48Ii1pCv04#5) The song is "Stop Time" by Landon Austin. The theme is any crossover ships. I went with Ben/Kim from Ben 10 and Kim Possible, respectively, because I've accidentally duped myself into shipping them. I might even have more edits with them in the future, if I keep joining crossover MEPs.FULL MEP: TBA#6) The song is "The Kids Aren't Alright" by Fall Out Boy. The theme is kids (18-ish or younger) going through personal crises. I went with Dragons: Race to the Edge because I just finished it on Netflix and have a lot of feelings to vent about. I do have another part for this MEP, but it's not done yet.FULL MEP: youtu.be/Rt-PWXVbM3kThanks for checking in. It's 2020 and I'm still a piece of garbage.
Ben & Rook | Like Real People Do Witch of Mind 2019-12-25 | My entry for the Childhood Creativity Studio's secret Santa for 2019! This is for you, Dani! I love your editing and hope that you enjoy this as well and have a splendid holiday. My thoughts with choosing this song, specifically, with the imagery used in the edit is just that... clearly, Omniverse wasn't as serious in tone as UAF was. But, in some ways, I think that's a good shift for Ben. He's been through a lot of heavy shit (and so has Rook). Just relaxing with his partner seems like a really healthy thing for them both.
Hiccup & Dagur | Genghis Khan Witch of Mind 2019-10-07 | HTTYD content in 2019? Disgraceful. Anyway, I finally got around to watching this show. And holy fuck, Dagur is so thirsty for Hiccup that it's not even funny. It only gets worse in Race to the Edge. So this edit isn't very polished, but I did a MEP part with the beginning section and had so much footage that I decided to extend it. You know, just to edit something, since I've been slacking in that department lately. But I like how it turned out anyway.
Hiccup | Run From Wolves Witch of Mind 2019-09-24 | (Hiccup is a good boy who deserves the world — no, I do not take criticism.)Oh, shit, it's a How to Train Your Dragon edit in 2019. Then again, it's probably one of my more modern fandoms, comparatively... Anyway, I've been slowly but steadily eating my way through the series (finished Riders of Berk and moving onto Defenders of Berk) and it rekindled my love for this franchise as well as reminded me of this old edit I never finished. Did you guys know that I have, like, five unfinished edits for this movie? I've been a fan for at least six years, I guess I just never got around to doing anything with it... Maybe I'll do a fanfiction or something. I've been tossing ideas around.And, yeah, the quality isn't great, but to be fair, it's really fuckin' hard to find footage of the first movie (and also the best one) in HD. Plus, after spending the last few days crying on and off, this edit has been really therapeutic. Since I actually like it, it's going up. It's been rather lacking on the editing front recently, which I'm sorry about. Hopefully, this will help get me back into the swing of things. It's just that writing is so much easier right now. Inspiration: thou art a heartless bitch. Song is "Wolves Without Teeth," by Of Monsters and Men.
CCS MEP Parts | Compilation #5 (Full MEPs Available!) Witch of Mind 2019-09-12 | I didn't want to upload two comps back to back, but... honestly, I've got some projects going on but I have absolutely no motivation to edit right now. But I haven't uploaded in a while, so here's this.#1) The song is "Shattered" by Trading Yesterday. The theme is finding hope in times of personal crisis. I edited with Danny (featuring Jazz, as best sister) from Danny Phantom because his struggles just really hit home for me. And this song is amazing. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=R_ke5WsilNs#2) The song here is "When the Day Met the Night" by Panic! at the Disco. The theme is characters who are opposites, falling in love. I went with the Red Huntress/Phantom from Danny Phantom because... I mean, it's practically in their names. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=mPF5SUHCbSQ#3) The song is "Dixie Boy" by April Smith and the Great Picture Show. As the lyrics imply, it's a song about a person who's very possessive of her love. Elena/Ben from Ben 10 just seemed to fit. I can never resist editing with Elena. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=_OwMAMyMlBs#4/5/6) It's kind of hard to explain, but these three are all part of a CCS 2011 throwback MEP. They're all short for a reason, I just don't feel like getting into it. Anyway, first I did Ben&Rex [Ben 10 & Generator Rex] for "How to Save a Life" by The Fray. The theme is that two characters from different shows are friends, but one of them dies. Next, I did Ben&Albedo [Ben 10] for "If I Had You" by Adam Lambert. The theme is a villain who wants the hero to be with them, either romantically or otherwise. So this one is up for interpretation. Lastly, I did Marceline/Bubblegum [Adventure Time] for the song "Te Amo" by Rihanna. The theme is that one girl is in love with the other, but gets her heart broken. Guess who's the heartbreaker in this edit for bonus points. FULL MEP: youtube.com/watch?v=IFSJuSfLBMYThe next upload will be better. Possibly. No promises. Classes are kicking my ass.
