Samurai 7 - For Glory, For Honor, For Love, For Bushido

[shigura12]

i god! i've forgotten about this anime!! aaahh my childhood -w-

[samuraiko]

@Kyuzo28 *grins* "Blood, grease, swords, some body odor... you know, macho stuff!" :D (I love Kikuchiyo.) Thanks! I still need to remake this...

[JP8940]

This is the best fan made trailer ever!!!!

[PeachTrie15]

Youre going to revamp this one? It's super awesome already! Well done! But if you have another post the link here.

[samuraiko]

Thank you. But yes, I'd like to redo it now that I have better audio/video editing software to use. :)

[MsDogofdoom]

this one is so rock awesome thank you for making this.

[samuraiko]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[jkron9989]

I just came across your video...this was amazing! I have to now go out and get the series! Good job!!!

[samuraiko]

First, thanks! Second, I think you'll really enjoy it - it can take a bit to really get started, but overall it's a fantastic series.

[hastij04]

Wow. That was cool!

[samuraiko]

Thanks very much!

[PeachTrie15]

If you want to revamp it, dont erase the original in case the fans of this video prefer the original over the new one.

[samuraiko]

Oh, I'll leave this version on here, but I do want to remake this now that I've improved with time.

[port195]

Best Series ever love it

[OniLODSamuraiFan]

now if only someone made a movie i bet theyd use this as the trailer XD

[samuraiko]

Wait until I revamp it - THEN I'd be cool with the idea. :)

[OniLODSamuraiFan]

revamp?

[samuraiko]

Yes - I want to remake this now that I have better audio-video editing software.

[OniLODSamuraiFan]

o ok

[Mysticeyes2987]

Wow...and here I was thinking that this was an actual trailer. The timing is perfection, and the music fits it perfectly. The quotes you used were perfectly placed. The entire vid gave me goose bumps. Amazing. Very well done.

[samuraiko]

My favorite kind of reaction. Thanks very much!

[KidKnightx]

Has a smooth flow to it. Good job.

[samuraiko]

Thank you!

[KatDrama]

Totally epic feel to it.

[samuraiko]

Thanks!

[saveus2132]

WHOA! that was really good. it seems like a real movie trailer it has a cinematic feel to it. this alone has made me a subscriber you do great work.

[samuraiko]

Thank you! I keep wanting to go back and re-do this (since now I have a better program), but it remains one of my favorite trailers I've done. :)

[naz2k57]

real cool

[samuraiko]

Thank you! :)

[Cornwiggle]

Wow. If I was unaware I would think that was a real trailer. Another great S7 vid from you. Great job. :D 5/5

[samuraiko]

Thank you, I try. :)

[samuraiko]

That was my goal - that if you haven't seen it, you want to, and if you have, you want to see it again. :D

[sasukelover]

that video was amazing!!!! i alrready watched the whole series but that made me want to watch it all over again!

[thufur]

I loved the series Sam. Rather than re-do this one, do a tribute to my fav character.....

Kikuchiyo!!!!! :) :) :)

[samuraiko]

Hmmmm... I'd need to find the right song for it, but I'd like to do a video for each of the samurai at some point. And if you haven't already watched my video "Brave Men, Braver Deeds", go watch it. And have tissues handy.

[RialtoWolf]

awesome!! i am so checkin out ur sitez!!

[samuraiko]

Thank you! I keep meaning to re-do this one because I know I could do a better job on it...

[MissAnnThrope06]

SUPER COOL!!! SUGOI SUGOI!!!

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much!

[DominiqueLyons]

god damn man this was great-no, it was more than great, this is better than any actual trailer i've ever seen

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much!

[RaeMelantha]

That was awesome. I would really believe that it was an official trailer if I didn't know.

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much for the compliment!

[ElDoctorMono]

Hey is this based in Kurosawa's "The Seven Samurais" ?

[samuraiko]

Yes - this is an anime retelling (and to some degree, an expansion) on Kurosawa's original work "The Seven Samurai".  Absolutely brilliant, and beautifully done. If you haven't seen it, watch it.

[akicorsa]

Great AMV!!! I think it express the essence of the serie! Good job!!

[samuraiko]

Gracias!

[Tutzachan]

congratulations!!! this is mind blowing! and i usually only like anime in japanese. but this is a real trailer. ganbatte ne ;)

[samuraiko]

Arigato. :)

[gaararocks172]

wow that was awesome! it coulda been the real trailer, better than the real one as far as i'm concerned^^ also i love Heihachi! great vid!

[samuraiko]

Thank you - that's one of the best compliments my work can get. :)

[XxShardsxX]

Never seen this aniem but I want to because of this!

[samuraiko]

It is so worth watching.  Glad this helped!

[IronMaidenDeathX]

Yeah! Watch it!

[savagejeans]

OMG no matter how many times I watch this I never get tired of it.

[samuraiko]

I'm glad you enjoy it that much!

[samuraiko]

That's what I was going for, thanks!

[opiumamore]

wow this is awesome! realy like a trailer! i likes it so much! great job!

[Mimi5893]

Wow, this was amazing! It looks like a real trailer for the tv.

[samuraiko]

My favorite kind of compliment, thank you!

[WinterDenim]

Woah..that was amazing! It looked like a trailer-and was cut and doen so amazingly! I'd never heard it with english before-did you add that, or was that on the version you have?

[samuraiko]

no, I have the entire series dubbed in English. And thank you, I worked very hard on it! :) (I added the quotes separately, as they take place in different parts than what I used for video footage.)

[Doodsjager]

you did an amazing job. goosebumps.

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much!

[Doodsjager]

hey where did you the the S7 soundtrack?

[Drunkenman2]

Name of the song ? That is played durring the other half of the movie?

[samuraiko]

Through the actual trailer, the only song is "Gothic Power" by Christopher Field. The music used during my end credits is from the video game "SHOGUN: TOTAL WAR."

[OniLODSamuraiFan]

i have seen samurai 7 and i was just saying it looks like a trailer to a movie

[OniLODSamuraiFan]

sounds like a trailer for a movie and looks awesome

[samuraiko]

If you haven't seen S7, it's definitely a great series based on a fantastic movie.

[Duckly]

Oh my god. This was just, awesome. DX I got a lump in my throat now! This is so going to favorites. D: <

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much - I'm glad you enjoyed it. Do check out my other S7 videos, but only if you've seen the whole series!

[snipe18]

do you japanese or else

[samuraiko]

Sorry, didn't understand the question.

[orgoldreich]

You should be ashamed of yourself for creating such a pathetic clip about Samurai 7.

[samuraiko]

So sorry you feel that way. I recommend sparing yourself further mental anguish and not watching the rest of my videos.

[gl15col]

I am going straight to your profile, anyone who respects and does right by Samurai 7 has a huge fan in me. Best thing I've seen for my second-favorite anime!

[SinjaAngels2006]

Love the way you used the splash images of each samurai at the end, it was a nice, dramatic touch.

I've always like music from trailers and tv spots, where do you find these things.

[samuraiko]

When you're as much as a music buff as I am, you build up a HUGE collection of esoteric music. I've got a way weird and eclectic selection, so I can score almost any type of video. Looking forward to your responses on some of my other S7 vids!

[fangirl91]

whoa, that was awesome! Ive never watched this anime. I am now though, really its great! It was so professional and dramatic. It was perfect! ^^

[samuraiko]

It is absolutely worth watching. Get the whole series, and watch it in one go. And expect to cry at the end. Glad you liked my video! (BTW, to avoid spoilers, do NOT watch my other S7 videos until AFTER you finish the series.)

[fangirl91]

Damn, it has a sad ending? I cried after watching Chrono Crusade for ages. Yeah, i aint good with sad! KK, i may watch the series still then watch your vids!

[NinjaAya18]

Awesome! The trailers I watch on here mostly suck but your good at them!

[samuraiko]

I try harder than most people. I have several on my website that are not listed on here - swing by my profile to see some of my better work. :)

[u060125]

i love this vid.. great job

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much!

[Svaro]

WTF was that!?(My first thought after watching this vid.)

I mean that in a good way.

Awesome awesome awesome awesome. (x100)

One of the best AMV-Trailer style mixes.

-applause-

[samuraiko]

HA! I loved making this (and it's just such a great way to introduce folks to S7).

[KyuzosPrincess]

what song is used? it sounds so familiar

[samuraiko]

The track is "Gothic Power" by Christopher Field, which first came to everyone's notice when it was used to brilliant effect in the LORD OF THE RINGS trailers. It remains one of my favorite pieces of music, and I just could not pass up the chance to use it for S7.

[Kyoukiw]

Excellent trailer! I suck with trailers -.-

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much - I love S7, and use this video as a way of introducing people to the series. :)

[kennydumm]

great vid guess i will see it again

[samuraiko]

thanks very much!

[foolycooly163]

damn im definately checkin this out ^_^

[samuraiko]

It is so worth seeing. Probably my favorite anime of all time.

[foolycooly163]

well if u say that then im definetely gonna watch this series through then ^_^

[samuraiko]

Had no idea my opinion was worth that much. :)

[archangelx235]

nice trailer sia powerrr

[samuraiko]

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

[zikbeta]

awesomw vid!!! you are one of the best...

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much for the compliment! I appreciate it!

[shunzi]

i'll give 5 for it. awesome work

[samuraiko]

Thanks very much! I appreciate the compliment!

[FlAmEsDuStWiNd]

One of the best videos I have ever seen, you really can not describe it, just awesome:)

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much for the compliment - you're welcome to check out my other work!

[alessandrakemper]

WOW it is a professional trailer indeed!

even better than the Unrequited Love!!!

[samuraiko]

:) Yes, I very much took it as a mark of pride when people said this was better than the original trailer for the series. Unfortunately, my best S7 video is no longer on here, but can be found at my website via my profile.

[metalwolf72]

great vid,

I didn't even know about Samurai7 until this summer. I just happened to be flipping through the channels and i came across a Samurai7 marathon. I was hooked right away.

You did an awesome job on this, keep up the good work

[samuraiko]

Thanks very much - I loved the series so much I not only did the video for it, I wrote a book, too. Glad you enjoyed my little trailer!

[Specialshipper]

I love this trailer, it PWNS!! ^^

[samuraiko]

Yes, it does. Which is too bad, because my best S7 video got pulled thanks to Gonzo. (However, you can find it on my website.)

[MuddKatCo]

Wow! I luff samurai 7 and this is an awesome trailer!

[samuraiko]

Thanks a lot... quite a few folks have said it's better than the original S7 trailer, which is a great compliment to me.

[ElementGirls]

WOW that was one cool movie, this is Definitely one of the best i've seen and i'm going to show this to people when i'm trying to get them in to S7

-Liz

[samuraiko]

Thanks! :)

[Fungus13]

i must say, that was definetly better than the real samurai comercials. if you could enter this somewhere so they could broadcast it or something when the show starts comin' out on more common channels, DO IT! (i dunno if that's even possible though...)

[samuraiko]

Thank you very much for the compliment. I am hoping to enter it into a few AMV contests this year! (Or if you're trying to convince friends to watch S7, point them to my video.) :)

[ElementGirls]

ohhh i will don't worry!!! -goes off to get all her friends as hooked as she is-

-Liz

[malakiteangel]

Wow! This could easily become a Samurai Seven comercial! I'm throughly impressed!

[samuraiko]

Thanks very much. I actually did make it to try and hook some friends of mine on the show. It worked - they're now rabid fans.

[yumi2040]

*whistles* daaaaaaaaaamn, awsome job there Samraiko-san

[samuraiko]

:) I try.

[VikitChan]

[squeefix]
