slimed:

so what? i've seen this effect countless times in commercials, music videos, trailers.

Funnily people rarely care if you literately blatantly copy a music video as long as it wasn't done in an amv.

With that said If all you have to comment is a link to another video that has similarities, you literately have no value to add to the discussion. It's impossible to make something completely original but it's also quite hard to make something that doesn't add some sort of value that hasn't been there before.

Maybe SilentMan made the 2012 trailer considering the similarities in 2.5d effects. Also Aquarion Evol seems to be missing as one of the sources.

One of my favorites so far, it captures the song really well and pays homage to the anime wonderfully. Great video

I liked the subtlety to the effect work, it was enjoyable and unique. Makes the watch have a very natural/smooth feel to it.

There were cool ideas but work like this practically has no structure. When the song is building up it is really dynamic and fast paced, so when the action kicks in there really isn't a change in dynamic it all just kind of blends together. There are also a lot of these awkward unnatural camera movements which mixed in with messy transitions, motion blur and random film burns make for one big mess. I'm not gonna go into too many specifics, but overall the editing just doesn't have much thought into it. It felt like the video focuses on transitioning more than anything else which leads to this random mess with cool moments but with not enough structure to be a good as a whole.

Felt it could have been more impactful but other than that it was nice. The sources made for a really good match.

I may be wrong but isn't 0:22 Shin Sekai yori? Just wondering cause it wasn't listed in the sources, not really a big deal.
