Since we have a lot of Sailor Jupiter fans in the community, I thought I would share. :)
When I say this has been a labor of love, I really mean it. Originally, this was meant to be a video to bide my time until I could get my hands on some PGSM files without subtitles. Something to keep honing my skills and all that jazz. But as I worked on the video, I realized it was more than that. This was me falling in love with Makoto again.
Years ago, Jupiter was my very favorite of the Sailor Senshi. My tastes have since changed, and in many ways, I've left Makoto by the wayside. Creating this video reminded me of why she was my favorite to begin with. It made me admire her strength, her courage, her loyalty, and her tenacity. In short, it reminded me of what a freakin' badass she is.
I tried to use this video to juxtapose images of strength/triumph and defeat with Makoto. That should become fairly evident a few seconds in. But I also wanted to show that no matter how she gets hurt or who leaves her behind, Makoto will always weather the storm.
The song is "An Angry Blade" by Iron & Wine. I hope you enjoy.
