Two more video recs:

Link: "EasyAction of [hagaren]"
Vidder: Pianos
Song: Easy Action
Artist: Kotani Kinya
Source: Full Metal Alchemist
Spoilers: Up to at least episode 42 because episode 42 credits are used. Probably safe enough for anyone who's just watched past episode 25, but definitely not before then.

This is like a music video that's also a promo for the series. There's little bits for each major character and a general sense of the action/adventure/drama themes of the show. I watched the video twice in a row because it's short (1:37), and very visually stimulating. It's fast but amazingly well timed and well edited.


Link: "The Path of Least Resistance"
Vidder: breeman
Song: Born Too Slow
Artist: Crystal Method
Source: Samurai Champloo
Spoilers: Eh, not really. Just early episodes.

This one gave me the same reaction I got from watching most of Samurai Champloo episodes: wow, pretty, but I'm kind of apathetic. To clarify: this video is being recced because it's a great video-- well timed, well edited, good use of special effects but not over-used, and is the quality of video I'd like to some day be able to make myself (as is the FMA vid above.) However, it is mostly a battle-centric vid that draws on the earlier episodes, and the earlier episodes were not my favorite of SC.

"Born Too Slow" to a SC video? Ehhhh. I always thought a Trigun video would be great for that song.
