20 days of vids meme

Which is more like to take me 20 years.

Day 10 - A vid that makes you laugh

Bitches by Otaku Vengeance - Pokemon - Bitches love Pikachu. I know nothing about nothing about nothing about Pokemon, but this is one of the first vids I ever saw, and it's still hilarious.

Day 11 - An anime/animated vid you love

Some of the first Shoujo Kakumei Utena vids I saw were by Kestrel, and are still among my faves, mostly Peace & Love, Ohtori (violence), Everybody Wants To Rule Ohtori (the Black Rose Saga), and Never Meant To Bishounen (Touga/Saionji).

But if you're looking for Utena/Anthy storyline, then two great vids that go great together are Roseate Nocturne by Tenjou and Himemiya (Anthy POV) and Torn by Maison Otaku (Utena POV). Both very tragic and yet hopeful. (They make me cry every time.)

Hmmm, all the old stuff has such low-res footage. It would be great to find more new vids using the lovely new DVD footage. Also, WHY did I only just learn about the ancient Japanese burial sites called kofun? Yes, that is clearly what Ohtori is.

Also I wish strangefandom would run another round. I want them to do SKU. Because... swords coming out of people's chests! Everyone is sleeping together and roses and coffins and eggs and upsidedown castles in the air and all the cracky weird visuals over the amazing story. Girls helping each other to save themselves. Eternity. Loss. Love. Their hearts, literally, their hearts.
