- “How did this terrible creature come to be? Hate alone was not enough. It took one more ingredient…love, poisoned by betrayal…to bring about so much bloodshed and woe to create the onryō.”
Episode 5 of Blue Eye Samurai, "The Tale of the Ronin and the Bride", is probably one of the best episodes I've seen in any television series, animated or live action. It absolutely floored me the first time I watched it, and upon subsequent viewings, I realized that this song from Arcane was practically written for Mizu and her backstory.
I own nothing in this video except for my own edits. Enjoy!
The line “ I thought maybe you could love me like you used to, even though I’m different.” Would fit so well
No need for this song to accompany another heartbreak of mine
first of all, amazing edit!! second of all, I just noticed this but I think in the scene at 1:42 the smoke from the mother’s pipe curls around mizu like devil horns 😭
This deserves way more views. This is a fantastic job!
Thank you so much! What were your favorite parts?
@@bensdreamatorium8315 My big thing is always synergy, the way you mix Mizu's parts with Mikeo and tell the tale of how Mizu became what she is or at least how she views herself was a masterful touch. So many times I will see an AMV and it is just a "Look at these random shots of this cool show" but there's no meaning behind it. You showed that this whole sequence has a tale and really showed how much this song fits Mizu so well.
This is amazing and so underrated!
It's well edited and really thought out.
I love how during the line "why don't you like who i am?" You show mikio telling her how she's a monster,
And showing the onryō during "i am your ghost" is an amazing choice
Well in 1:00 i like how you took that "what could have been" line that didn't have any accompaniment to emphasize mizu throwing the knife.
People sometimes don't realise how silence can make just a few frames that much more powerful and you did it great@@bensdreamatorium8315
I'll be going over your channel and if I'll see videos of other shows i saw ill watch them
One of the most accurately fitting AMVs I've ever seen.
Omg this should blow up!!! this song fits BES as well as it fits Arcane
Thank you! What were your favorite parts?
I feel like this song fits Mizu even better than it did Jinx.
Mizu was purposefully and intentionally betrayed and sold out. V never meant to betray her sister.
Mizu was culturally gaslit into believing she was less than human and an actual demon. That’s a messed up thing to be brainwashed with while growing up.
I love this song and the show it came from. I also love the scene that brings the words to life.
But I really like that you chose this other show to use this song. I also really like blue eye samurai. Besides, the heroine physically reminds me a lot of Cait.
In short, a very good edit. 😊
Mizu shouldn’t be who they want her to be, she should be who she wants to be.
Problem is, she lives in a society that won’t allow her to live as either one.
@@harleyquinn5774 what do you mean as either one?
@@AshleeGusmanShe can’t live as her true self: a biracial, female master swordsman.
She can’t live by the role assigned to her based on her being female. Her status as a biracial “demon” marks her as a target to be killed, in order to prevent European blood from entering any Japanese family bloodline. She needs her sword skills to stay alive.
@@AshleeGusmanShe can’t live as a woman. She needs her sword skills to defend herself from those trying to end her. And she can’t live her life as a man unless she is always on the move to minimize the risk of others finding out she’s a woman disguised as a man. She would be arrested and punished for it since Edo Japan had such strict and defined gender roles for men and women (with the exception of theater and possibly the Pleasure Districts.)
@@harleyquinn5774 The world is so harsh.
This deserves more likes.
OHMYGOD ARCANE X BES I COULDNT HAVE WISHED FOR ANYTHING BETTER

@@bensdreamatorium8315i loved the part at 2:07 and how the instrumentals fit the visuals

The one time Mizu was happy
I'VE BEEN WAITING SOO LONG FOR THIS AMV. Bro, this music fits PERFECLY with Mizu's backstory, i really wanted to do it but i don't know how to make amvs TwT. This definetly made up for it, PERFECT ✨✨
Thank you so much! Were there any parts that stood out to you?
This was perfect!
Thank you! Were there any favorite parts of yours?
@@bensdreamatorium8315 :45 fit the lyrics so well, and 1:23-1:30 hits the mood so well. You used the puppet onryo scenes well, and the last beat with Mizu leaving was incredibly well timed.
Criminally under subscribed but the algorithm has your back.
beautiful work!
Well done~!
This: Perfection
Nice
Aaaaaaaaa our best lady aaaa
Nice :)
I think they slightly fumbled the bag with Mikios character, he could have gone out fighting like a boss but instead dies like a moron.
Eh. He deserved to go out as pitifully as he did.
Content for the algo, others have already said everything
Nope..
Stop.
Arcane owns this…
You could just say you don’t care much for this and be done with it, instead of being cryptic and vague.
