| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So, it wasn't what I expected... no actual animation in it OTL Still, I liked the sky, and nice space effects. |
| Nice Clouds This is not funny Gainax~ |
| Failure! |
 |

EricHazuki said: Probably because they can't surpass the anime version?How could they use the best music of the anime in... clouds? |
| Like Japanator said, "Row Row F*** You Gainax!!" What a sad joke... |
 |
| Eh.... anime? ;< Could have just listened to the mp3. |
| If the song wasn't there I would not have had any idea whatsoever that this was supposed to relate to TTGL. |

| Haha..it looks like it could of been filmed around here parts. :D Pretty but I have to agree with the other dissenting voices here, it's just not TTGL. |
     |
| Epic... but only because of the song. The part where it was switching from day/night to the beat was kind of cool. |
| I thought it was pretty cool, but was a bit letdown that there was no animation in it. Still though, it was actually better than some of the animation ones :/ |
| Epic song, crap video >_> |
 |
| This one was a complete waste. Such a great song, why did they had to create such a shitty video >_> |
| Is this a joke ? I'm disapointed to see that there isn't the choice "0 out of 5" |
| I'm sad now x.x |
     |
| It failed when the skull started to sing. But in the begaining I gather that do the impossible was plants growing in a savage envirorment. |

| Very weird. But that's GAINAX. |
| Lame. |
"I'm starting to think mal is run by Xinil generating electricity on a bicycle." - idklol |
| Kinda liked it, but that might just be because of the music, I'll have to re-watch it sometime. |

| Although I'm completely disappointed just like everyone else, this video is actually very fitting to the line of AMVs. Obviously they're showing us a "live action" version of the TTGL world, with several references to the anime, such as the valley we see where the first battle of Yoko's group taking place, the skulls representing the many people who died to the Beastmen or to the desert (Kamina's father comes to mind), the person running (he looks like Simon o.0), the skulls in the moon referencing the destruction of all the humans, the symbolism of the lotus flower, and the galaxies at the end. I thought it was pretty cool to see a live world of TTGL. I wonder where they filmed this. Still pissed that they had to use the best song for this though. >:| |

| Dear God that was boring. If that's what the last one's going to be like, they can keep it and never put it out for the public to view. Bad video, bad song (hate opera singing so very much), just plain bad. And from all the other 1's on there, I see that I'm not alone. |
| I reject your reality, and substitute my own. |
| Please, I want an answer : WHAT THE FUCK IS THAAAT ? |
 |
| GAINAX are very good trolls. I thought it looked pretty nice. It was also a waste of time. But eh. |

| If it wasn't for the music, I would have said "gimme back these 4 minutes of my life". Lame. |
They are neither plants nor animals. They differ from other forms of life such as the micro-organisms and the fungi. Instead they resemble the primeval body of life and are generally known as Mushi. Their existence and appearance are unknown to many and only a limited number of humans are aware of them. |

| Goddamnit gainax |

| waste of an awesome song |

| This sucks... at least its 1 more left to go. |
 |
| ... it was okay i guess |
| Love the Opera. Hate the rap. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| How could they waste such a brilliant song on one of the worst Parallel Works of all? >_< This makes Parallel Works 5 look like a masterpiece! |
| Why you do this gainax, WRRRRRYYYY?! I was expecting epic animation, mecha battles and explosions to this awesome song. Not clouds and and deserts. |
 |
| why does this happen when it's my FAV. OST!?!?!? |
| Ok, so, um, rocks. And, er, clouds. They're probably symbolic. So... They really wasted Libera Me on live footage? D: (okay, and on shuriken galaxies, gotta give them that.) I mean, yeah, Earth is epic and stuff, and it's not that I don't appreciate pretty landscapes while listening to awesome music, but what I came here for were EXPLOSIONS AND MECHA. Oh well. (And yes, I do get the whole transition from TTGL to real world locations deal...but they just could have chosen a different song to show that xP) |
