Вот и завершилась героическая эпопея этого проекта. Финальная точка поставлена, и теперь я могу вздохнуть с облегчением, зная, что это чудище уже не будет поджидать меня под кроватью, пугая меня по ночам.
Идея клипа возникла много лет назад, при первом моем знакомстве с Циклом Историй. Еще тогда меня пленила визуальная составляющая этого произведения, а также очень запомнился и понравился персонаж Кайки Дейшу, который, собственно, и лег в основу этого клипа. Проект быстро строился и стремительно рушился много раз, чем каждый раз вгонял меня в тоску и глубокую печаль. И вот, только после длительного времени и мучительной работы, этот очередной долгострой наконец обрел свою окончательную форму.
Хочу поблагодарить Галю и Китти за их незаменимую поддержку на момент формирования проекта.
Отдельное огромное спасибо Kimihairu за его непрестанные пинки и заряд мотивации, которыми он меня неустанно снабжал во время наших "нечастых, но таких своеобразных посиделок в личке" (с).
А также спасибо Fury и всем ребятам из моей команды за хорошее настроение и сумасшедшие переговоры в дебрях скайпа.
На сим я удаляюсь, предоставляя вам возможность побыть с этим существом один на один. Благодарю за внимание и желаю приятного просмотра :)

The author announced in the comment that he has already deleted the project of this AMV and he doesn't have a non-watermark version. It is a pity that we can only watch the video with watermark.

Author's comment: bilibili mad大赛2016第一，啊啊啊啊真的很感谢各位喜欢，创作这部作品呢是想讲出一个生离死别的故事，嗯。其实啊我是想做出一个真正能让大家燃起来的作品，没想到大家都觉得很惊悚，很意外啊....然后2p加了一个修改对比，希望能帮到一些有兴趣制作mad的新人们，剩下的我在评论区里补充啦╮(￣▽￣)╭
