vs ButterflyIllusioned (I won...somehow)
FFS contest beta...not going to finish, please don't ask. However, this one is maybe the best out of all of my contest betas.
ANYN is a difficult anime to make AMVs with, so I should use it when I can (though not be horribly repetitive). My last AMV focused more on Mei's perspective and on their friendship. This one is in Gabu's perspective and talks about their friendship, BUT also looks at other stuff more importantly (as it touches on more of my interpretation of the song's meaning/story).
I used the line "so far away" to describe Gabu's development. He's "so far away" from what he used to be (watch the AMV. It'll make more sense). First he was a beast that considers goats to be his favourite meal (I'm almost positive he was in the hunt where his mom was killed at the beginning, hence why I used those scenes. I tried not to get Giro in there, but oh well), and then makes friends with his "dinner". However, he's happier this way. He's not ashamed, though he felt like it was too good to be true at the start since something so good could only be in a dream ("somebody shake me 'cuz I, I must be sleeping...". That was also the scene where Gabu did have those kind of thoughts, so score!).
