@tjw0071 If you really listen for it in a few places. . . its pretty obvious that it IS a different version of the song. It sounds unfinished. Either the final editing wasn't in place, or a different vocal recording was used in the final cut.
The first thing I noticed is, that the beta version of that song is sung a lot clearer than the final version. Nonetheless, the final version is better, but this opening is interesting, too... in it's own way.
I knew about the different version of Karma but I've never seen this opening before :D it's kind of cool to see how it all started out in the beginning
It's always nice to see how they go about the planning. Although, a few of the sketches were very hard to tell where we were. Poor animators having to figure out what those storyboarding nuts wanted.
lol Van's face at 0:30 is just priceless.

I think it's funny how the artist makes certain scenes very detailed and pretty, but others not so much.
For example, look at Tear at 1:26 and compare it to like... Guy.
Anyway, that was really impressive. :D

It's the original japanese version of karma is it not? And the opening isn't changed, it's just messy because it's a rough storyboard.

It's not an AMV, it's a series of concept sketches made by the creators as a sort of storyboard for the actual animation.
