This is my collection of non-DBZ
anime music videos. Several of these have been played
at anime conventions over the years, and even a few
have won some awards! Please don't pass them up just
because they're not DBZ music videos, and are big file
sizes. These are the works I am the most proud of. :)

I
used the Kimagure Orange Road movie for this
music video, and a song from an 80s cartoon
show, Jem. Odd combination, eh? If you haven't
seen KOR before, I really, really recommend
it. Anywho, the video is all about a girl named
Hikaru who loves to dance and is trying out
for a musical audition. Her best friend Madoka
is also in the video, shown playing the piano,
as she gives mental support for her friend.

"Wind
Outrunning Destiny" focuses on the harsh
reality that Haruka Tenoh, better known as Sailor
Uranus, must face in Sailor Moon S. Since Haruka
is one of my favorite characters in Sailor Moon,
I knew I wanted to make a character-profile
music video based on her. This was a fun, siple
little project that I made just for the heck
of it. It is not one of my favorites, but that's
not to say that I don't like it, or think it
sucks. I think I just made this when I was feeling
very moody, so I kinda associate negative emotions
with this vid.
This video revolves
around Haruka not wanted to accept the fact
that she has to be Sailor Uranus. In the beginning,
it shows her riding on her motorcycle, running
track...just basically doing things that will
help her run away from her destiny (hence the
title, "Wind Outrunning Destiny,"
since on many occasions throughout SMS, Haruka
refers to herself as "being like the wind").

This
is Version 2 of a music video I made about a
year ago. It is one of my favorites from the
last year that I decided to remake, because
I wanted to send it to a contest, so I needed
to have a cleaner version of it made. This is
based on the Sailor Moon R movie, and tells
the story of the central characters of Usagi,
Fiore, and Mamoru. This version sports super
high quality, and more solid and clean editing.
It's a very simple video, and yet, it remains
one of my favorites. I think it's because I
find it visually enjoyable. The way it flows
(as in, not cut-crazy), the colors...I just
like how it turned out.

Ever
heard of the anime "Boys Be"? Didn't
think so. -_- Well, it's a very fun, cute, and
hormonal anime, that ended just last year in
Japan. The show was made entirely digitally,
and it just looks stunning. I made this video
so that people can learn about the show, and
hopefully, they'll want to go and seek it out.
As far as I know, they're aren't any other Boys
Be AMVs out there (on the amv.org site, I think
there are 2 listed, but one doesn't work).
Here's the basic story of the
video: it revolves around three horny high school
boys, who spend their time checking out, hitting
on, and trying to impress girls. They fail.
LOTS of times. Hilarity ensues. After being
rejected on numberous occasions, and making
general asses out of themselves, the guys finally
find romance in the end!!! Awww, how cute.

Since
the only kind of Cowboy Bebop music videos I've
ever seen have been serious ones (for the most
part. Tainted Dounuts would be the exception),
I knew I wanted to do something fun. Originally,
I wanted to make a video all about Ed. Unfortanately,
I had no idea what song to use. But, one day
I was in my car, listening to my New Found Glory
CD. The song "Boy Crazy" played, and
suddenly, I felt the urge to use that as my
song, however, I'd make the video about both
Ed and Faye.
So, with that said, here is
the story of this video. It's narrated by Spike
(with some help from Jet). His situation is
that basically, he's always surrounded by totally
insane women. The first part of the video focuses
on Faye, while the second part is all about
Ed. Towards the end, it shows both of the gals
just doing nutty things.

This
is a sentimental and dramatic Fushigi Yuugic
music video. I used the song "Again"
by Lenny Kravitz, because the first time I heard
the song, I thought to myself, "Dude! I
gotta make a Fushigi vid to this!", so,
here it is. :P It's about the love triangle
between Miaka, Tamahome, and Hotohori. The video
is told from Miaka's (the torn one), and Hotohori's
(the rejected one) points of view. Sorry, Tama.
>=D I didn't really have much going on from
his point of view.
In the majority of the video,
I alternate between scenes of Tamahome and Hotohori
equally, to show how Miaka has to deal with
the two main men in her life. After the fighting
scene, the focus shifts to Miaka with Tamahome,
and there are some lonely shots of Hotohori
near the end of the video, to signify how Miaka
still has lingering thoughts of her potential
suitor in her mind.

This
is the first remake of a very old 2-VCR-made
music video I made. I figured I enjoyed this
video so much that I may as well re-edit it
using the computer. Sadly, a lot of bad footage
is still used, as I have horrible tapes, but
a lot of the timing is greatly improved.
The concept of
this video is nutty violence! One would think
I was a very angry little girl considering the
amount of violence in this video. Basically,
I wanted to make a really action-packed video
that I myself would enjoy watching, and would
feel good enough to show my friends. If I remember
correctly, I think I even had a few hints of
timing in this one, and my first few instances
of *actual* dramatic moments, in terms of lyric-matching.

This
is the first Sailor Moon video I ever made.
I know that isn't exactly the best way to start
off a description, heh. However, I am very pleased
with it, considering I made it on a whim on
a slow day at college.
My video tells the story of
the Sailor Moon R Movie. Using clips from the
DVD, my goal was to simply narrate the movie
through song, mostly from the perspective of
Fiore. Look for Sailor senshi being smacked
down to the beat! Oh, what fun! Hope you like
it as much as I liked making it!

I
always disliked Mamoru. Thought he was a stupid
pansy. So when Seiya came along in Sailor Stars
and swept Usagi off her feet, I just couldn't
get enough of it! I then made a quickie music
video to the awkward relationship between Usagi
and Seiya.
The video basically revolves
around Seiya's attempts to make Usagi his. There's
really only one part in the video that I love:
the music scene in the beginning of the Three
Lights playing, and the trio moving to the music.
I thought that was very spiffy editing/timing
on my part. Ahh, how easily amused I was!
