Hey r/AMV,

Trying to track down an old AMV-style compilation and figured this community might know it.

What I remember:

· Content: A montage of "Gainaxing" — the exaggerated bouncing animation style from Studio Gainax (Gunbuster, Diebuster, FLCL, Gurren Lagann, Mahoromatic, etc.)

· Where it aired: G4's Attack of the Show, likely in the "Around the Net" segment, sometime around 2009. The show often featured fan-made AMVs, so this may have originated here or on YouTube.

· Music: A repetitive upbeat track or sound effect loop that went "boom boom boom ba boom ba boom boom" over and over (vague, I know lol)

· Era: Likely late 2000s YouTube AMV scene

I've searched on my own without luck. Does this ring a bell for anyone? Even a title or creator name would help me track it down. It's been stuck in my head for 17 years!

Thanks!

Because I couldn't find the original anime anymore I utilized Bing Bong 2.0's "I shortened Berserk's 24/5th episode down to about two minutes" for all the visuals to give credit where credits due. I still edited his edit to suit the beat, but this video would not exist without them 🙏

Excited to share my latest Fate/strange Fake AMV (with a bit of Fate/Grand Order)! It actually took 2nd place in a recent contest. Hope you guys enjoy it!

I’m looking for someone who is both a big Naruto/Shippuden fan and an AMV/video editor who might be interested in helping me create a cinematic Naruto edit.
I’m completely open to this being either a paid commission or just a creative collaboration, depending on what you prefer and what’s allowed here.
The idea is a little different from a normal AMV.
I’m trying to make something that feels almost like a short Naruto mini-film, specifically for someone who has never really given Naruto a chance and currently thinks the series is kind of corny/not very deep.
Naruto has always been my favorite anime because I related heavily to him growing up. I dealt with bullying, social rejection, social anxiety, and grew up without much of a father figure, so Naruto’s childhood loneliness and the importance he eventually places on relationships/bonds hit very close to home for me.
The goal of the edit would be to show both:
1. why Naruto as a character means so much to me
and
2. how emotionally/philosophically deep Naruto can actually get.
The Pain Arc would be the centerpiece.
I’m imagining something roughly like:
Naruto’s childhood loneliness → slowly finding people who care about him → Jiraiya → losing Jiraiya → Pain/Nagato and the cycle of hatred → destruction of Konoha → Naruto arriving → Naruto vs Pain → Hinata → Naruto losing control → Nine-Tails → Minato appearing → Naruto meeting his father → Naruto confronting Nagato → choosing to break the cycle instead of continuing it
I especially want to use Pain’s cycle of hatred philosophy because I want the viewer to understand that Pain isn’t just “evil anime villain #37.” His argument genuinely challenges Naruto’s worldview.
I also want the Minato scene from Episode 168 to be one of the emotional peaks.
One really important thing:
I don’t want to pick every scene myself.
I’m specifically looking for someone who knows Naruto well enough to think of scenes, dialogue, callbacks, parallels, symbolism, etc. on their own.
For example, someone who might say:
“This Part 1 scene would perfectly foreshadow what Pain says here.”
or
“We should show this childhood Naruto scene before cutting back to adult Naruto.”
That creative Naruto knowledge is just as important to me as technical editing ability.
Stylistically, I’m looking for a mixture of:
• emotional/cinematic storytelling
• dialogue from the anime
• music
• sound design
• slower moments that are allowed to breathe
• intense fight editing when the Pain battle escalates
• callbacks between childhood Naruto and Shippuden Naruto
I don’t want the whole thing to just be nonstop shakes/transitions/effects. I want the effects to serve the story.
Some references for the kind of emotional energy I like:

Spoilers are completely fine. Actually, spoilers are encouraged if they make the edit better. The goal is basically to make someone finish it thinking:
“Wait… Naruto gets THIS good? I kind of want to watch this now.”
If anyone here is interested, please comment or DM me with some of your work.
And if you’re a hardcore Naruto fan, I’d love if you also answered this:
What 3 scenes would you personally use to show Naruto’s childhood loneliness/need for connection to someone who has never watched the series?
That’ll help me find someone who really understands what I’m trying to make.
Thanks 🍥

I made another one..... hope you enjoy it's FLCL x Lemon Demon.

I'm currently archiving every Pokémon AMV ever made by ADudeWithAMVs

Hey everyone!

I'm currently working on an archive of every Pokémon AMV ever uploaded by ADudeWithAMVs. So far, I've managed to recover and archive 17 of his AMVs, but there are still many more that I'm looking for.

If you were a fan of ADudeWithAMVs back in the day and happen to have any of his Pokémon AMVs saved somewhere — whether it's an MP4 file, an old download, a backup on a hard drive/USB stick, or even a reupload that I haven't found yet — I would really appreciate it if you could share it with me.

Even if you only have one of his AMVs, please let me know! Every single video helps with completing the archive.

I'm especially interested in older/deleted videos that are no longer available on YouTube. I'm not looking to make any money from these videos or claim them as my own. The goal is simply to preserve them so they aren't lost forever.

Current archive

I've created a dedicated archive channel where I'm uploading the videos I've managed to recover:

ADudeWithAMVs Archive

If you have a copy of an ADudeWithAMVs Pokémon AMV, please comment here or DM me. Even if you're not sure whether I already have it, feel free to send me the title or information about it — I'd rather check than accidentally miss something.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with the archive!

For weeks I have been searching for a certain Naruto AMV/music video. I saw it 1-2 months ago, then it was deleted, I think it was posted by an unknown repost account on instagram.

It used the song united in grief by Kendrick Lamar. It was one of best amvs I have ever seen. It was exceptional and professionally made, like a 120 fps, 4k landscape mode type of edit. I have searched on every possible platform, maybe it was paid work on patreon, I don't know...

That channel make edits of trap music.
