Yeah, he was supposed to die at the end of Gluhen, but the manga/drama CDs Side B retconned that so he lives. Pick your favorite--that, having atoned for his sins, he dies peacefully, or that he lives one as an assassin and continues to kill the dark beasts in the night. Either one is cool, and either one is totally canon.
Hello all I am new to youtube and new to weiss Kreuz so yes Freude is a beutiful song I like the video even though it's alittle fuzzy but all and all lovely
I watched this video again, and I'm even more impressed... not only do the images perfectly match the words, but even the music and images co-ordinate perfectly - and this song is so Aya that I can't listen to it without thinking about this video. (obsessed with WK much?)
wow, this the most impressive Weiß Kreuz I've seen by WTF (or anyone else), you used clips from every video media Aya was in! (TV, OVA, Glühen, Music videos...)
Ran-Kun is impossible to pin down you did a wonderous job. i love all of your vids been a long time fan. i'm happy your on youtube so i can watch your work over and over and over again like the obssessive weiss fangirl i am
This video made me wanna watch Weiss Kreuz. In fact, I will do just that. This video is so awesome! And VNV Nation is one of my favorite bands! Thumbs up!
I love and hate this anime at the same time but your video rocks! P.S. Does anyone know where to find teh OVA? I've seen parts but I can't find all of it.
In a word....this guy is a cold merciless killer.Just look at his eyes.He does not have any care or remorse left in them.He fights for his sister's cause but his soul is fueled by hatred and regret.
I love this so much~. You totally got me interested in VNV Nation, and you reminded me to finish watching WeiB Kreuz and continue on to Gluhen; I'd see ep. 1-4 of WeiB at a local anime convention, and loved it, but then forgot all about it over the years. Now I get to take a stroll down memory lane, and I really do LOVE WeiB! Thanks a lot. <3
Lovely AMV. Favorite is the beginning, because it's so spectacular and fun. ^ ^
WTF? So many views and favorites, but so few comments... -_-
Awesome job! A rather abrupt ending: was there some sort of fade-out effect you could've used? Other than that, it was great!! ^-^ I love Aya; he's my favorite character from Weiss Kreuz.
The song sounds familiar to me, though I'm quite sure I've never heard it before...hmm...
AHH so your the WTF productions maker!! nice to finally meet you, i,ve been watching your amvs for years now, i mainly used to get them off animemusicvids,
Good use of song and imagery. I like Aya, and I think this video did a good job conveying both his assassin side and the part of him that just wants it to be over. Great work!
To date there's no more anime, but there's a manga series running in Japan right now called "Side B" that follows what happened afterwards. In the manga, Aya is rescued shortly after the stabbing and lives. He and Ken move to England and join an assassin team called Kriptonbrand Side B. There's quite a bit of it out already; I have five volumes of it from Japan, and it's still running in Ward magazine. It's definitely worth checking out if you love Weiss.
you did an awesome job with this; the music and scenes blended really well. though aya comes across as a cold killer, the song added a layer of angst over his actions. i haven't seen 'gluhen' but this video is convincing me to check it out.
Definitely check out Gluhen! It's my favorite series of the three. It takes some adjusting to (since there's only one mission, rather than one per episode), but it's a good story overall with new characters to boot.
Sorry for the late response! The song is "Joy" by the band VNV Nation. This is a butchered edit of it; the song is actually almost six minutes long, so I cut off the last minute and a half to make the vid a more reasonable length.
OMG! My commento was erased U_U. Anyway, I said this video was amazing and the music was perfect.Although some of the images I dont recall seeing neither on Gluhen, nor the first, nor the OAVs.. I liked it a lot.
Thank you! The additional scenes are from a set of specially animated music videos put out officially in Japan only. It's commonly called "Music Video Clips", and if you poke around online and on Youtube you can probably find the original videos (I used footage from "Tokyo Sling" and "Carnival 2000", but there's two other videos as well).
Thanks! Yeah, the ending is abrupt largely because no matter how many hours I spent editing it, I couldn't get it to cut off cleanly. The actual song goes on for another minute to minute and a half of instrumental music after where I cut it off. I'll probably revisit editing the song again once I finish learning Final Cut Pro; it seems to have better audio editing tools than Adobe Premiere.
fuck the seven ppl who didn't like this amv its amazing!!
