Dot_com's list of videos that survived her EXTREMELY picky WRATH:
AMV: Doujin Addict
Studio: Anime-Fansub (Zarxrax)
Series: various
Song: Manga Maniac
Group: S.E.X. Appeal
Comments: The cutest, the funniest, and one of the sweetest and most original videos I've seen. Blending doujinshi and various fanservice-packed series together to make quite an enjoyable video. For those of you who are mature enough to handle some of the very slight sexual innuendos and humor, this is most definetly the video for you!
Production quality: Excellent! Synch, video quality, not completely slathered in effects, but whatever effects are there are noticable and very well done!
"He's a manga, manga, manga maniac! He loves them all! The ladies in the paperback!"
AMV: Toushi
Studio: Zero Tolerance Films (Majin Kenshin Productions)
Series: Naruto
Song: Goodbye
Group: SR-71
Comments: I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this video, but I HAVE to put my two cents in on this. This video will make any Naruto fan proud to be a Naruto fan, if they didn't collapse from crying in pure joy. What can I say? This is THE best Naruto video, if not the best action video I have seen. Loaded to the max with effort beyond all effort, this video beats all others. If you haven't seen Naruto, you will WANT to buy the entire series after watching this. If you have seen Naruto, you'll pull out those dust-covered DVD's from where ever in your room and start watching again...Guarenteed. If there is one video I must recommend to EVERYONE, it's this one.
Production Quality: Excellent! Magnificent! There's a reason why this nasty lil' b***h placed #2 in all of AMV.org! The synch is incredible! The effects are incredible! The song and series go perfectly together, up to the very lyrics! This is a must have for ANY AMV watcher! GO! GO DOWNLOAD IT NOW, DAMN IT!
[I recommend viewing this on a DivX player, as RealPlayerOne tends to slow this video down. Don't judge the video UNTIL you have seen it on the appropriate player. You'll know if your player is screwing the video up if the opening doesn't start out or end in synch. Everything about this video is top notch if viewed properly.]
"And I say goodbye again!..."
AMV(s): AMV Hell/AMV Hell 2: Son of AMV Hell
Studio: A2A (Zarxrax)
Series: various
Song(s): various
Group(s): various
Comments: Three words. Funny as hell. AMV Hell will have you rolling on the ground in laughter, and can produce a chuckle from even the grumpiest and grouchiest figures. And if you think sequels suck, you most definetly will rethink that after witnessing the glory that is AMV Hell 2: Son of AMV Hell. Both are equally hilarious and entertaning. There's a bit of sexual humor, so keep an open mind everyone (but I'm sure I don't need to worry about that in the AG ~_^). Zarxrax is at it again! He's making more hilarious AMVs! People, this is enough to rival Dokidoki studio. A definite must-see for anyone with a sense of humor!
Production Quality: Basically all the basics needed to land you into the Top 10%. Excellent video quality, editing, synch, etc... These videos have the added humor effect and switch between different songs. Seriously people, you have GOT to check these out. Most definetly more hilarious than any flash, ever created. In my opinion, more hilarious than Strongbad! Okay! Now go download it!
"Scream. Ahhh!"
AMV: Naruto Fanfarria
Studio: Fusion - amv (Einhander)
Series: Naruto
Song(s): various
Group(s): various
Comments: This is definetly another GREAT Naruto action video. Chock-full of some super effects and pretty noteworthy themes, this could be the second best Naruto video I have seen. Enough to present a healthy challenger to Toushi, this video has some great music synching as well, changing from one song to another. Starting out as an action video, it ends with a very cute and amusing 'funny section' at the end. ^_^ I definetly reccomend this to anyone who loves watching AMVs!
Production Quality: Very good! Definetly shows off some brilliant editing, synching and video quality. There are some really original themes and such used in the video too! I was really impressed with it after viewing it a couple times! Ending with the humorous part was a good idea as well. It's short, it's funny, and it's definetly worth a download. Video quality gets a little smudgy, but hey, I'm really not going to complain about that. ^_^

AMV: LuV & jOy oF FrUiTs BaSkEt
Studio: >>>iNvErSe AMVS<<< (*inverse*)
Series: Fruits Basket
Song: Love and Joy
Group/Artist: Kimura Yuki
Comments: Not exactly the next Euphoria, but this mediocre video is definetly the definition of fun. I really enjoyed it's light-hearted and happy theme through the entire thing, and after watching, I REALLY got the urge to go buy Fruits Basket. Character profile galore, I'm pretty sure if you're someone like me, you'll enjoy this video a lot. It's just downright cute, and it's done a good job at keeping it's spot on Top 10%! Go *inverse* go!
Effects: Whatever effects this video has, they're done properly, but she definetly could have added MUCH more. Once again, it's not the next Euphoria, and it probably never will be unless she does a remix off of this. But it's fun and it's cute, and I think it's pretty darn good. Synch is great, and video quality is good. She leaves some subtitles in, I'm pretty sure they were on purpose to continue the happy mood. This creator's got a lot of potential, and I'm looking forward to seeing if she's got anything else that's made Top 10%. Definetely a worthy download!

I only recommend the best of the best, after all. rolleyes I'll post again with some more videos including some really hot video game music videos I've seen. Some of these are so good, they should be the commercials.
