They're surprisingly well made, especially the one with the buried treasure.

I have to agree. The tagline about having to "dig hard" was especially genius.

Those were awesome. I felt the ol' ANN-resident pride swell up while watching them. "Cheating" was my favorite. Something about hearing a sibling say "Brother???" makes me laugh out loud every time.

I liked the digging one best. I agree with hara about the cinematography on that.

The other two aren't quite as well-acted, ^^; but they're still unique. Yay for on-screen kissing?

Awesome! I got a real kick out of the fact that the guy's brother in the 'cheating' video was dressed as Roy Mustang Anime hyper

Ever since we started showing these last summer at conventions, every time I hear someone say the word "anime" now, I picture the actor yelling "aaaanimeeeeee!" in my head.

Cute.

I still think everytime I see "Last to Know", when slaps what ever that girl was reading clear across the room. Hilarious. Laughing

That sound you hear of something breaking when he does that was the real sound of the manga accidentally ripping through one of my chinese lanterns that was positioned off screen. The manga cut my poor lantern clear in half.

I also liked the digging one the best. MANGA!!!!!!!!!! It brings together my love of buried treasure and manga together all in one.

Ouch! Sorry about that... The "Last to Know" ad was the 1st one I saw when you premiered ANNtv. I saw "Buried Treasure" on The Anime Network's online player. I saw "Cheating" for the 1st time tonight on YouTube. In that order, those are my faves.

I can imagine. That sucker had some velocity on it.

Sorry about the lamp, but you have to admit it certainly gave realism to the term "freaking out" in that scene.

I saw Digging (it was ok the first dozen times) and Last to Know (*shivers at the high screeching voice before recovering and finding himself rocking in a corner*) on ANOD, but not this "Cheating" of which you speak. Watching online just seems like cheating, so I will wait and hope they flush that one up this week.
