Wow, so, someone on facebook brought back memories with this one:

I first watched this back in the 2000 (or 2001?) Anime Expo and it was awesome. (Especially that bit with Shinji's cassette player: it drew a laugh from everyone in the hall.) Back when I was doing some professional dubbing and working with others in TOEI's official Latin American site, and I was involved all sorts of anime projects, this became our personal hymn to joy for a while.

Not a particularly meaningful blog post, I guess, but I just wanted to share this memory and a little context with you guys.

Holy crap I remember this. And Tainted Donuts. And a lot of other AMVs from back in the day.

Playing this one linked me straight to Jinnai and the Bugrom (Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot), which linked to The Anime Polka, and then to Sappy Self-Indulgence (Elephant Love Song Medley) and THAT to Spectacular, Spectacular.

2001 was a very good year for AMVs.
