AMV Contest at Anime Boston 2013

I usually enjoy the AMV (Anime Music Video) Contest at Anime Boston. There are usually really good AMVs that I enjoy. All of the AMVs that were in the contest were very well done, except for the last AMV in the contest. That one just didn't have any effort put into it at all! It was just the same clip from a Dragonball Z movie played over and over until everyone got sick of it.


This one was a great Action AMV. It is called "Shoot Me!" and it was created by BecauseImBored & Irriadin. The Anime is Black Lagoon, and the song is Tommy Gun by Royal Republic. I want to try to watch this series if I can find it.


I really liked this Action AMV. It has some ridiculous imagery, but since the Anime movie, "Summer Wars," is based on is about the Internet, it makes sence. The song is Going Digital by Jason Radford, and it is also in the Digimon Movie. I really want to check out Summer Wars now because of this video.


This was a rather creepy video, but I found it really enjoyable. This video seemed to fit the theme of Anime Boston this year, which was "Tales of Yokai" which are Japanese spirits. This video is from tehninjarox, and it has footage from Natsume Yuujinchou, Another, and Kanon 2006. This Anime is called Infinite Darkness by The song is Sail (Unlimited Gravity Remix) by Awolnation.


This AMV, called RadioAkshun, was created by Ileia using footage from Rebuild the Evangelion. The song is called "Radioactive" by Imagine Dragons. This one was also a good Action AMV. I have seen Evangelion, but not this new series.


This AMV is called Moonfall, and it was a really good Drama AMV by Shin. It contains content from The Vision of Escaflowne, and the song is Rabbit Heart by Florence and the Machine. I have only seen a little of The Vision of Escaflowne, but I want to see more.


This video was voted "Best Comedy" and it is obvious why. At first, this video appeared to be just an upbeat AMV, but then it revealed some really funny, creative editing that made the audience laugh. This AMV is called Magic Mouth and it was made by Bashar of The Ages. It contains clips from Puella Magi Madoka Magica and the song is "Magic" by B.o.B.
