straightforwardly

► For some reason, I have been watching a lot of AMVs lately. That's something I haven't done much of since... high school, maybe? It's made me realize that my familiarity with newer anime is really lacking, but otherwise, it's been pretty enjoyable. Here are some I've liked:

• Howl's Moving Castle: Shadow of Your Heart
• Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Walpurgisnacht
• Soul Eater: This Is Halloween

Hmm... I thought there were more than that. I know there was at least one more PMMM one, and a Princess Tutu one, but I'm digging through my bookmarks right now and can't find links to them anymore. That's a bit frustrating.

While I'm at it, I'll link to some non-anime videos I've watched as well.

• Les Misérables: Radioactive (yes, I know, but this video made me SO emotional, despite the overused song)
• Disney/Non-Disney Animated Films: Gods & Monsters (the quality varies, but some of those edits are amazing—especially the last one)

► Speaking of videos... I've been on the verge of unsuscribing from AVBytes for months now— they just haven't been posting anything particularly interesting lately, in my opinion— but I fond myself somewhat fond of the Disney Villains Musical. The only real downside is that I didn't really like how Maleficent explained her reasoning for cursing Aurora.

► Another video I liked that doesn't quite fit the above categories was this trailer reimagining Frozen as a horror film. I don't like horror, but I kind of want someone to fanfic this.

► Finally, some music, all Frozen-related, mainly so I can clear out the rest of the video links from my bookmarks. I quite liked this male cover of "Let It Go", as well as this one of someone singing it in German. A few months back, when I was super stressed by school, one of my friends also gave me this link of someone singing "Let It Go" in the voices of 21 Disney & Pixar characters. Most of his imitations are quite good, I must admit.

► This entry is shorter than I'd planned, but there are already so many links... I think I'll end this here.
