• Yes, we all know he writes for the Animu Network Thinger. I'm just giving him shit because it is clear as day that he hates anime. I am sorry you do not see this. It does not make him a bad person, it just means he is a big phony fraud. OH TEE HEE, I kid because I love.

• LOL DON'T YOU MEAN "I FAIL *IT*"???

• "You think "Two Mix" is the only notable one that uses Anime music video? How about "Linkin Park"'s "Breaking the Habit" music video" I drew the parallel because Rob cited this as an original composition and animation, as is the White Reflection video. The White Reflection vid is an animation of Two-Mix themselves, and stands as a separate entity from their Gundam W work. Also, there is no copypasta involved.

• *LOL* I saw that and nearly fell out of my chair laughing

• Aw, heck. I watched that whole video waiting to see a giant robot and - nothing! Why bother animating a music video for a Gundam movie and not have one dang Gundam?! Poo.

• Holy Fuck! You talk about people complaining about Anime on this site, yet I only ever see you bitching about others. Do you ever have anything to say that is not a complaint?

• Holy shit, that was way more awesome than I was expecting. Good stuff, Rob.

• P.S: Isn't the ONLY thing that ALL anime has to do with anime is that it's animated? In Japan? Animated in Japan? Yeah. tha's about it as far as qualifications, go. Even though this clearly references distinctly notable anime styles at two points in it, and showcases many examples of Japanese culture throughout.

• Gotta love it when people honestly think that their snarky-ass comment is nearly as actually funny as they think it was. You hit the mute button. Holy shit, what a major accomplishment to all mankind. Everyone must stand up and applaud you, sir. You pushed in a mute button. Then you told other people about it. Clearly you deserve a cheeseburger and a medal.

• Actually, that's not what he meant at all. A lot of viewers on this site don't like anime and criticize him every time he puts anything anime-related on the blog. He's merely covering his own ass, and sucking up to people that don't like his anime posts so that he'll still get all visitors to this site. Me however, I don't dislike anime. I just dislike anime that is pretentious garbage. Which, in all honesty is about 93% of it. But I like the other remaining percent. Still though.... either way, his statement wasn't correct. This video is still of a distinctly japanese anime style. And it's still pretty nicely done.

• "but I assure you the only thing this has to do with anime is that it's animated" Really? Because I see Japanese culture, anime style designs, and slight anime references PLASTERED all over this music video. It's almost as if you ganked this news and video from another blog, passed it on, made your blog post about it, and didn't even watch the video. Heh. That having been said, it's still pretty good.

• He likes anime. He's written about liking anime. You fail.

• Hachiko said: "I'm sure a few of you are immediately grimacing in disgust at the thought of an anime music video" Those who would do that never saw Two-Mix's 'White Reflection' video, which was a wholesome dose of cheesy awesomeness. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuXQua6a5sM I think you're missing Rob's point. I think when he means Anime music video, he means those fan-made music videos using clips from Anime shows instead of making ORIGINAL animation. Anime fans in the western hemisphere have doing Anime video splicing for almost two decades, but no one wants to put effort to make something different. No matter the theme, the cut & paste is still cut & paste. You think "Two Mix" is the only notable one that uses Anime music video? How about "Linkin Park"'s "Breaking the Habit" music video?

• @Shamus: I LOL'd.

• (s)

• kick as vid

• Note to Topless Robot - I love you, that is all.

• i hate it when that happens...

• Um dude. Rob writes a column for Anime News Network and has mentioned liking various anime series on this very blog. What makes you think he's "taking a shit" on anime?

• Thanks for making my day, Rob.

• Good going finding this awesome video! Also, way to go with making sure to shoehorn in a mention about how much scorn you have for anime and its subhuman fans. Cause it's totally cool to shit on anime now AMIRITE???? Wouldn't want to go a day without hissing out a thinly veiled barb through loathing-clenched teeth at the subculture that made you even remotely notable, I guess. You show those stoopid pokaymons what-for!

• amazing! I hope they make more.

• @Jeff - I did sir, and it was incredible. @Rob - I would like to thank you immensely for having your website going long enough in your lifetime to have this video posted. Holy shit is the most accurate term I can think of.

• New Charenger!

• holly shit fits for that video is mind blowing good . and love what has to be a parody of mega man or astro boy in the video

• Holy eff does this kick ass! On a side note, does anyone else think the ramen guy looks like Teuchi?

• I hit mute. - It was better after that.

• Wow...I usually despise anime with an undying hatred that could immolate cities, but this was really good. The animation was cool and the music was just repetitive enough that you paid attention to the video, but not so repetitive that you wanted to hit mute.

• Silly me. Forgot to put up a link. Ken Ishii "EXTRA" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6maVVFs0As

• fuckin eh :D

• They guy who made the music for this is the drummer for Balzac, a japanese horrorpunk band. Awesome.

• Holy Shit is right

• Youtube Ken Ishii's video for his track EXTRA. Asian-inluenced techno with anime directed by Kouji Morimoto of "Akira".

• This is incredible!! I could totally see this being played in a crowded club. On a huge screen.

• That was a wicked video and the music was good. I normally stay away from japanese made music. People should try being on drugs when they watch that video, just like the Wall
