Full Metal Alchemist | Through the Shattered Lens

I believe this is the third Azumanga AMV to be posted here, but what can I say? The series lends itself nicely to being made into AMVs. This is an older AMV, and I really don’t know if it was ever entered into an AMV contest at a convention or if it was just done for fun. Either way, this was created by Suberunker Studeosh and it mixes scenes from Azumanga Daioh with the Bowling for Soup song 1985.

This video in particular has a bit of a checkered past if you will. Perhaps this is a recent development, but for the longest time these videos were either taken down or had their music blocked because Bowling for Soup, or most likely their producers, objected to the use of their song in the video. Mainly this was an issue with it being posted on YouTube, but as you can now see, they don’t seem to have a problem with the music being played these days. Either cooler heads prevailed and they realized that no harm was being done, or they figured the song was old enough to where its monetary value was sufficiently decreased so it didn’t matter anymore. At any rate, it’s good that people can now see and hear this video as the creator intended.

At any rate, this video features the somewhat jaded and a little immature teacher of the series, Yukari Tanizaki, and the majority of the scenes were taken from Azumanga Daioh, but there were a few quick snippets from other anime shows too. It’s a really well put together video, and fans of the series are sure to enjoy it, as well as people who just appreciate a good AMV.
