ONTD Original: Classic Anime Music Videos (AMVs)

[off_daze]

AMVs have been always been a huge part of the anime fandom, even before YouTube existed. While some expressed their love for the characters and stories of their favourite anime through drawings, fanfiction, and craft-making, others turned to Windows Movie Maker or iMovie when they heard the perfect song that evoked the emotions of what they had

This was the first AMV I ever watched. Available on Youtube in old, old potato quality.

how timely bc i'm going to be finishing the fushigi yuugi series today! plenty of problematic stuff about it, but it's genuinely a really good anime and holds up. can't wait to watch the ova's <3

any other early-mid 90s anime recs?

ugh, i love finding anyone else who loved fushigi yuugi. it's mine and my older sister's childhood favorite. so many iconic and hilarious scenes. like we never have stopped referencing the Keisuke voicemail. i cried so hard and so long when chiriko died. my best friend and i used to write fanfiction on my old laptop and then go reenact it in the backyard. ha ha.
