Mai/Zuko - Prelude
Loading...
Uploaded by ravenhpltc242 on Jun 18, 2009
*9/11/09: Omg! Ok, I've had this uploaded for the past two months, I put it up with everything else, but just today I noticed that UMG gave it back. I didn't do a thing. Thank you, youtube. :)
Original Description from AUGUST 14, 2008:
Ho geez, a shipping video. I apologize to all of you who have grown fond of my trailers, but I needed to mix it up a bit. Plus, when I announced my "character tribute" speculations, about 95% of the people who commented requested either a Zuko or Mai video. It's good to compromise, no?
On my trip in Chicago, I listened to this song about 20 times, and all I heard was Maiko. This song had also been deemed a failed project of mine from a few months ago, but I thought it could use a little reviving. It's a good song, short, fast, and with a strong beat. It IS a Raven song.
So yeah... Maiko. Along with being one of the fandom's most hated ships, it's one of my favorites. I have always loved Mai, and after witnessing her act of unconditional love in Boiling Rock pt. 2, I knew that Maiko was it. Maiko is where it's at, dudes. That is dedication. That is love, affection, and understanding that can only be seen in one other ship of this fandom, arguably. So I don't want to hear your anti-Maiko hate comments, save it. Maiko is the most canon ship of the show.
And in case you're wondering, the chinese characters at 0:31 say "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." I thought it seemed fitting.
My Favorite Maiko Fanart:

I love Zuko, I love this song, your compilation is fantastic.

I can't stand Mai, but I really love your AMV.

@fantasyreader12345 The characters are actually a very famous line from one of Shakespeare's plays (I'm not sure which though). The line is "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

Great video! What do the Chinese characters at :31 mean?
Also...how do you do the box-ish effects and light-flashing at :26-:28?

i was cool with maiko before, but this video just made me a fan
-

@pj150pj It's from "The Beach"

LOL, "Mai, forget me" You, sir/madame, are a genius. AFI are obviously Avatar fans...
I love this couple though, like I have no issues with Zutara (other than the fact they marry different people....but it did even say in a note I saw on a special avatar "Zuko was originally intended to be Katara's brief love interest, but was replaced by Jet") but like, if Zuko's gonna end up with anyone- it's Mai. She gets him, knows his really bad side and loves him with or without it...

What is the transitions called that you used at :23 seconds

That was beautufl. Gosh, I may just give up on making my own vids now... This is quality. It's amazing. And of course, it's my favourite paring, so yeah. :D

@Rosawyn Don't stop making your own! Make them for fun, not to be better than someone else. And who knows, you'll probably become a better editor than me someday.
