[nelanequin]

Love it! Great work!

[Sirramiss]

Shittest song ever

[FrozenGuineaPig]

I absolutely love how much more epic this video make FF12 seem.

[zechoke]

This continues to be my favorite FFXII fanvid, and I've been watching it since you uploaded it and linked on LJ. O_o

[Sakuyana]

I love the Song, the Video and all in it!!!!

What program did you used???

LOVE IT! >.<

Balthier is my favorite character!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

@Sakuyana Thank you! I used Sony Vegas. =]

[lovergirlanime]

I have to say Balthier is my favorite character in the whole game. He's so cool. And this video kicks BUTT!! Love it.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you so much!

[Sanie333]

Awesome vid! :D

You are really good music videos maker.

I love this song!

Balthier and Fran <3

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you! ^^

[TenshiKTama]

you should really check out Tatta Ni Hitostu No by Kokia and Scarborough Fair by Aoi Tada.

I don't know why everyone is talking about Noein. Noein? wtf? This song is the original opening for Fafner; Dead Aggresser.

Awesomeness is beside your name in the dictionary!!!!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Yeah sure, I'll check those songs out.

Yeah Shangri-la is originally from Fafner, I guess Noein is just something a lil' more recent...well actually I'm not sure, lol.

Thanks yo! Apppreciate it =]

[xLastLegendx]

WOW, i just watch Noein like 3 months ago.. so now I know

[xCraZy18gurlx]

I sadly have not heard of Noein before..up until now that is xP

[xLastLegendx]

*gasp* but the video is titled Shangri-La, thts all they were saying in Noein! "get to Shangri-la" "Take us to Shangri-La" Shangri-la this and Shangri-la tht. U kindda cant get through tht anime without the word Shangri-la getting stuck in ur head, lol

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Lol, oh really? Heh, I'll have to check this anime out sometime.

[baeduxai]

OH CRAP YOU'RE THAT GIRL THAT I SAID ID MAKE THAT SCRAPBOOK FOR :|.

i finished it. but my computer ate it all :( =/ and that didn't inspire me one bit.

:( im sorrry.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

OH CRAP ITS TOU

Lol, hey don't worry about it, it is quite alright. Thing happens ya know.

So don't worry about it all ^_^

[baeduxai]

but ugggh i worked so harrd D:< and u waited liek a yearrr. and it was so cuuute :(.

and then my computer is all mean :(.

*cries* blah.

[Vixen0705]

Goodness - I think I've watched this video more times than what is considered legal, yet it never ceases to unhinge my jaw in awe and amazement. Your deft skill concerning the timing alone is enough to warrant you laurels and merits beyond what the character limit allows. Obviously I have starred, subbed, and fav'ed it ages ago, but this needs to go on my POSITIVELY PERFECT playlist, as well - which I was not in the possession of when this first came out.

But I am now! Woohoo!

GLOMPS

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Your Postively Perfect Playlist eh? Lol, I truly appreciate your kind words. Such is further motivation for me to continue my work.

Thank you very much Vixen! *huggles*

[Chukapii]

This video is fantastic. Not much to say different to everyone else that's commented, but it's definitely the best pairing video I've seen to date ;D thank you for making it

Loved the end! XD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it =]

[EllaDiabola]

Hey, just thought I'd let you know I still love this :D Play it nearly every day :D

I don't know if you've read my messages, but if you haven't I put my very first balfran vid up, and I'd be really interested to know what you think of it! Please take a look if you get a chance, and post something new up! I'm in need of balfran goodness again!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Lol, seriously? Wow, thanks xD

[nausicaa83]

Awesome video, you're really talented. *__________*

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you very much ^^

[Switchback001]

Brilliant video, amazing editing. Could you tell me what editing program you use to make your videos? Plus great song, I listen to it with Balthier and Fran in my party when levelling in the Cerobi Steppe. XD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you very much ^^ I use Sony Vegas.

Really eh? Heh, awesome ;]

[DarkMoon28]

Wow, that was awesome.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you =]

[Jadasan]

This video is sooo hot! I love it and the song is so cool and of course Balthier and Fran are pure awesomeness as always! You rock!XD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Lol, thank you, thank you very much! <3

[Saltytude]

totally different atmosphere with this one, and even though I have no idea what the song means, it still got to me, probably because I did turn up the volume. Very fantasic vid.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you ^^ If you wanna understand the backstory of this vid along with the translation of the lyrics, just check out the link in the info part.

[Saltytude]

done and done..appreciate it even more ;)

[Jibrillechan]

Problably the best Fran/Balthier MV I've ever seen! *__* 5/5 +fav

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you very much! Appreciate it =]

[DarkWingedViera]

This is absolutely awesome! Really good work, the effects are lovely! I WANT MOOOOOOOORE!!!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you very much! More coming soon! ;]

[DarkWingedViera]

Woohoo! I'll be waiting for it :D You really got talent, every new vid is better than the one before.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Well the ones to come after this one, I dunno if they'll be better or as good as this one, but definitely be something ya'll will like. I have a couple in the works but they're kinda like...fillers, you can say before I the next big thing comes. Like how Into The Night and Do You Know kept you entertained until Shangri La, the big one arrived.

This next big thing...I aint revealing anything but Im pretty excited for it myself ;]

[Saltytude]

I really liked those 2 ;)

[xCraZy18gurlx]

hehe, thanks ^^

[Lumiere14]

Oh! I mean't to ask, before, do you possibly have this video somewhere where it can be downloaded in better quality? I'd love to see it sometime in better quality... I think we all know of the horrors youtube does to the videos ;_;

If not, nevermind! Now that I actually think about it, you'd kind of risk someone else claiming your video as their own if you just had it available for download XD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

It can be downloaded in higher quality, but its only available to friends/acquaintances only. I have been ripped off before and despite that I've always caught, I still wanna stay careful. That's why from now on im marking my vids with my symbol.

[Lumiere14]

....that...was...AWESOME!!! That's got the be the BEST Balfran music video I've EVER seen! It was wonderful! I loved it! ^_^

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you very much, I'm really glad you liked it ^^

[rairen]

3:11 - 3:13 made me laugh lol

and the ending was cute 8D <3

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Hehe, thank you ^^

[Tornfalk]

Absolutley super friggin' awsome!!!

Balthier <3 Fran 4 ever!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Hell yeah, Bal/Fran 4eva! <3

[xOxAzureFlameGodxOx]

I absolutely loved it! Awesome job! =D

[slylover123]

[xCraZy18gurlx]

3:20? Thats in the Pharos Lighthouse when they face off Dr. Cid for the last time.

[Mikakitten1724]

Now I've got over several new ideas, just deciding which one to do first xP

[grieverwings]

o.o

WHOA.

...WHOA.

-dies-

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Whoa indeed...I just killed a dude! lol xP

[Jadasan]

Holy shit!XD Not only was this the best bal/fran video, but it's the best ffxii vid i've seen so far! I was browsing through lj for fanfics when I found this. the timing was impeccable and the visual overlays and the song, oh the song! it all kicked ass! Awesomness!XD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

[steffrox]

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you =]

[EllaDiabola]

Grrrrr... I want a wallpaper of 4.10 but I'm too useless with computers to figure out how to do it... :(

[xCraZy18gurlx]

If I could only get a hold of images big enough for a wallpaper, I could just make it for you myself xP

[EllaDiabola]

:) Bless you, thanks anyway. I'll just have to make do with the one I've got, I guess. xx

[kmhikari]

Here via ff_press, and OH MY GAWD it's a song from angela!!!!! (Now I feel better knowing that I'm not the only person in the entire universe to listen to them! I love this song! And to FFXII, no less!) Gosh, this was too amazing for words. The timing was fantastic... the effects weren't overdone at all... Gosh, I could go on and on and on about how absolutely... perfect this video was.

Viva la Balthier/Fran!

DEFINITELY 5/5 stars and a +fave from this corner. =DDDDDDD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

I love Angela, they're awesome ^_^

Thank you so much! I'm glad you really liked it =]

[ShyeShine]

Wow! This was so cool! Amazingly great job! I just love it. You make the best videos.

FranxBalthier is love and you show that so well! ^.^ I think I am a fan girl for you now!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thanxs! Really appreciate it ^_^

Woohoo I've got a fangirl! xD

[ShadowZXXIII]

Omg Woot! I was waiting for you to make another video ;P I love it, its so beautiful! Good job ;) 5/5

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Lol, well here it is. Thank you! Glad ya liked it ^_^

[aorin107]

Oh, dang. I KNOW this song!! XD

Shangri-La by Angela, from Soukyuu no Fafner. OMG! OMG! OMG! I can't believe you chose a song that I knew very well XDD I love this song, but you've just made it a million times better with this video XD

The opening have the essence of the original anime, with the clouds ;) Brilliant sequencing, and the effects!! Gives me chills XD

[aorin107]

Part II (cause I can't shut up, but you know that XD)

Incredible! Just incredible! 8D Fav, and I'll give you all the stars that I have. Oh god, 0.40 had my jaw drop in amazement!! 4.10 had me speechless, and fell off my chair, and broken a bone, maybe two? But so worth it!! ;)

OMG! I love it!! XD Did I repeat myself? Bah, I Love It!!

[Juine]

So true - i love the 0.40 bit!

This song is amazing

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Lol, I honestly had no idea people were gonna love that part so much xD

[Juine]

Its such a great scene - possibly cause the songs quite calm before that and then it's just so AHHHH :)

I also love the effect at about 1.10 (its done again later) when their faces light up. Literally.

I'd love a screen shot of 4.10. It's like the begining of some awesome TV show.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Impact, that's what I love, hehe.

The way the characters glow up, yeah I loved doing those ^_^

Sure, I'll message you regarding that. Would you believe I was thinkin about makin some short flash cartoon with Balthier and Fran? xP But im not really sure about that now. Got too much on my hands already.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Oh I love it when you can't shut up, lol.

Aw thank you so much. Wow, I'm so glad you liked it that much! =D Lol, I had no idea scene 0.40 was gonna make peoples jaw drop, but yes, scene 4.10, now thats my one of my most favorite part. I hope those bones can be remended, you'll need them for next time! xD

Thank soo sooo much! Really glad that you enjoyed it! Oh, I left a mention of you in the vid description ;]

Once again, thank yooouuu!! Great, now I can't stop repeating myself xD

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Ooooh! You know this song? Isnt it just awesome! Seriously? Aww thanks x3

Oh really it does? I actually havent gotten a chance to see the anime yet, but I just watched the intro here on YT and...oh my God, the begining of my MV matches with the begining of the intro. Lol, what a coincidence.

Hehe, thank you so much hun! <3

[WebOfTwilight]

Loved the effects and the music! You never disappoint with the Bal/Fran vids! Again, great work with this!!!! :)

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thank you so much! Really appreciate it =]

[EllaDiabola]

*aqueals*

Oh my goddess, you're so amazing! How do you do it?! Honestly, I don't think I've ever been more jealous of anyone in my life, you do this pair proud everytime and I think Juine is right, the leading man would be proud. I only hope that because you're calling this your ultimate Balfran vid that you won't stop making them, because that would be a travesty! 5 stars and a massive virtual huggle to you, my friend!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

*fangirl squeal*

Lol, aww thank you so much! How do I do it?...I dunno...I just did it, lol. Aw don't be jealous! I make these music video for you guys, my friends and Bal/Fran shippers alike.

Oh yeah totally, I'm just getting started! You'll be seeing a whole lot more for me in the future.

virtual huggles and kisses back at ya! <3 Oh, and I left a mention of you in the vid description ;]

[Juine]

oh and just to be a bit more obsessive, I best just say that at 0.40 my jaw literally dropped. That fast bit there where there's no words in the song is so incredible

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Oh, really? Wow, I'm really glad you liked it! I put a 120% effort in every scene.

[Juine]

Your video making skills are not human. Seriously. Best Balthier/Fran vid out there for sure. Perfect to the max. The leading man would be proud.

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Yes, because I'm an alien from Planet XK95...

Lol, thanks dude! Really appreciate it ^_^

I make the leading man proud? Oh, my life is complete now xD

[slylover123]

SO BEAUTIFUL AND AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

[xCraZy18gurlx]

Thanks hun! =D

[queennasu]

awesomely awesome! i completely love it, love it, love it!

Favs, 100000000000/5!

[slylover123]
