its almost been a year and i still come back to this video again and again. this is a fantastic amv in that it really makes you Feel something even if you aren't familiar with the shows--every good amv should.

[@WolfyX3]

Truly one of the best AMVs I've ever had the satisfaction of watching.

[@TigrinStudios]

Thank you, that's very nice!

[@isabelaoliveira8045]

First of all I feel proud of knowing all of the animes YOU CAPTURED THE ESSENCE OF A GOOD SPORTS ANIME EVERYTHING THEY SHOW, the passion, the characters, the pride and shame This is one of the best AMV I've ever watched

[@GothGurl504]

This was one of my favorite videos at AX. I still watch it almost daily before my workouts. (Im a competitive runner, boxer and cyclist) and this really gets me going. Reminds me of why I love anime and sports so much. Thanks for the video! Don't ever take it down!

[@TigrinStudios]

Haha I'm glad it helps your workout and that you enjoy the video! :D

[@mmmomiji]

"I'm a competitive runner, boxer and cyclist" are you sure you aren't an anime hero already, dang man

[@VAB419]

"I wanted to capture the spirit of this type of anime" DAMN GURL/BOI YOU SURE DID!!! Loved this so much at Otakon. I think I might need the song on my ipod now for workouts. The shot of Free at 2:42 captured my mood at that point in the vid exactly, I felt like yelling and cheering just like those guys were.

[@TigrinStudios]

It's gurl, lol. Thanks! Yeah I think it would be a great workout song. Glad you had fun with the video. :D And glad that shot worked, I remember when I added it in. :) As kind of a "everyone's singing at the end, get hype" sort of shot haha.

[@digl_live]

I've seen a lot of AMV's in my life, but I think this one is my absolute favorite. I watched it so many times, but it still makes me feel things every single time. I just keep rewatching it from time to time for the last 4 years, this is truly a masterpiece for me.

[@TigrinStudios]

I'm glad you enjoy it so much! It's also one of my favorites that I made. :)

[@Melanie-vl1fz]

I dont think Ill ever find a better amv than this one...

[@monsteroftheforest5664]

Haa! The moment at 0:27 when Yuri shouts at Yuri "I don't FEAR you!" has me cracking up major time!!! XD

[@thesash777]

My friends over at Kitsu recommended this and oh my god ! I am blow !, there are very few AMVs which perfectly synchronise with the song and this my friend it is . Thank you once again , creating the video for you was tedious and time consuming but man , it really paid off . I'll recommend to more other people . Spread this awesome motivation .

[@americangirlforever6195]

The timing of the music with the animes is just FLAWLESS!! Is it possible to love this too much? If it is I really don't care because this is amazing!

[@Chrono_Mitsurugi]

I play this everytime I get ready to go to the gym. Truly inspirational.

[@yuliaa.9528]

Damn that outro is really relatable

[@Zaxomio]

[@TigrinStudios]

Glad you enjoyed it enough to track it down. :)

[@PurpleH4z3]

I love watching this amv in the treadmile, i just put this one when i think i cant run anymore, and go all out for the 3 minutes of the video

[@sophono1504]

Damn, this is more than awesome. I wish that I had been able to play sports more when I was younger and I hope that I might one day have a chance to try them out. (Seeing DnA makes me happy too)

[@TheDigiblades]

The transition of elegant ice skating to ippo punching the absolute shit out of sawamura is so funny to me

[@ltf7576]

Saw this at Otakon and I LOVED IT! I thought it was the best in its category and I also voted for it as best in show. It's really inspiring. I'm so glad this video got uploaded to KZbin because I was hoping to get to watch it again. You did a great job. :)

To be honest I've only sat and watched a handful of them and the rest I skimmed through for the video. :) But they're all series I like.

[@ollarking2]

Don't wanna live as an untold story Rather go out in a blaze of glory I can't hear you, I don't fear you I'll live now 'cause the bad die last Dodging bullets with your broken past I can't hear you, I don't fear you now Wrapped in your regret What a waste of blood and sweat Oh oh oh I wanna taste love and pain Wanna feel pride and shame I don't wanna take my time Don't wanna waste one line I wanna live better days Never look back and say Could have been me It could have been me Yeah Don't wanna live as an unsung melody I'd rather listen to the silence telling me I can't hear you, I won't fear you Don't wanna wake up on Monday morning The thought of work is getting my skin crawling I can't fear you, I don't hear you now Wrapped in your regret What a waste of blood and sweat Oh oh oh I wanna taste love and pain Wanna feel pride and shame I don't wanna take my time Don't wanna waste one line I wanna live better days Never look back and say Could have been me It could have been me Yeah I wanna taste love and pain Wanna feel pride and shame I don't wanna take my time Don't wanna waste one line I wanna live better days Never look back and say Could have been me It could have been me It could have been me I wanna taste love and pain Wanna feel pride and shame I don't wanna take my time Don't wanna waste one line I wanna live better days Never look back and say Could have been me It could have been me It could have been me!!!

[@alyarvnia]

Damn, i can’t believe it’s been a year since this video’s released.

[@SightlessandHopeless]

Hello, I love this video so very much and it inspired me to write a panel for Katsucon this year about sports anime-- I wanted to show your AMV because of how well i fell it inspires the feeling of sports anime-- can I use it? (with full credit to you of course)

[@TigrinStudios]

Sure, go for it! :) Good luck with your panel!

[@gurrenlagan1178]

simepre lloro cuando veo este video

[@minhsonvu9378]

This is breathtaking. Do you have any hint to find this on SoundCloud? I think I ve just fallen in love with something...

[@josuesanchez3931]

saw this at AX

[@TigrinStudios]

yay so did I!

[@monsteroftheforest5664]

I've got this song on my phone and every time i hear it. I get this 0:28 in my head Every. FREAKING. *TIME.*

[@hailegabriel5582]

i loved it but i havent seen any of this animes except for yuri on ice please tell mr the name of the rest,and also congrats

[@lethalprincess2087]

This is cool 🔥 and who are the ice skaters?

[@vianaaa4218]

Haikyuu😍❤️

[@GKMaverick013]

I was there when they announce the winners for the AMV contest

[@TigrinStudios]

Wish I was, I was all the way on the other side of the country D:

[@lethalprincess2087]

Could you list the animes? I'm totally watching these 🔥

[@TigrinStudios]

If you watch until the end of the video, all the anime are listed at the end.

[@lethalprincess2087]

@@TigrinStudios oh I missed, thank you! I'm autistic and miss things sometimes, lol but I ended up doing some research and found them all 🤣 thanks again, and amazing job on this edit, way cool 🔥

[@lethalprincess2087]

Well I've seen Kuroko's Basketball before, everyone else is new, other than the volleyball one, tho I never had interest in that one 🤔😂

[@rikapurnama3062]

Haikyuuu!!! 🏐🏐🏐🏐

[@jaunehowie9880]

What's the name of the baseball anime in this?

[@VAB419]

It's called Daiya no Ace/Ace of Diamond. It's about a baseball pitcher who's left-handed, which gives him an advantage in the games because apparently the angle a leftie throws at from the mound makes it harder for the batter to see/predict how he's going to throw. (I haven't seen the show but my bro has and he loves it, says it's underrated)

[@aisyah4320]

I cant imagine if they all are from the same school

[@DebSzvr]

DAMMIT VIDEO NOT AVAILABLE DAMN TRAVELING AND AREAS WHERE I CANT WATCH CERTAIN VIEDOS

[@truyeissi]

[@anthonywayne1928]

Where can I find an English dub of this?

[@GothGurl504]

Anthony Wayne I don't think most of these have dubs, you can watch hajime no ippo and yuri on ice in dub on YT but I don't think the rest has dub
