Embers (Utena AMV to Evanescence's "Missing (demo version)")

"Embers" focuses on the decay of idealism into cynicism and twisted innocence as the flames of envy consume the relationship between Shiori and Juri.

Won first place in the audience pick for Drama at Katsucon 12.

did you have to buy that or can you download it free?

[AliceMeichi]

I think you can download it for free, but I ripped this footage from the original Japanese DVDs before they were released in America.

Shiori may have done some not so nice things, but that is what makes her human, which is why so many dislike her. How often do real people react to feelings of jealousy and inferiority in a nice way? Not many, and Shiori is no exception. A lot of people are unwilling to admit to this part of themselves, so it's easier for them to sympathize with characters who simply get depressed.

This video is not only beautifully well-crafted, begging to be watched over and over again! Great job!

In my opinion, Shiori is the most misunderstood character in SKU, and to simply write her off as a "bitch" is quite an ignorant statement.

Sorry, I badly write in English.

Your video is amazing! The song is perfect for visuals, and the work itself is very beautiful! You are very well displayed the plot of Dzuri and Shiori.

I simply can't watch this enough. Every time I watch it, I see something new and ultimately heartbreaking unfold between Juri and Shiori. Thank you for making this. It's incredible.

Wow, this has got to be the only AMV I've seen that melded images from both the movie and the series without looking like crap. This is amazing! Awesome!

Basically, the most beautiful AMV ever. My sister was at Katsucon when this was shown and immediately made me find it online when she got back.
