If Valorant had an Anime Opening // 2.0

Good for you

Next stop, Valorant Anime Op.3

[@adamlmao6893]

Idk if this was intentional or not, but I love that when chamber initially shows up, the screen glitches to show that he's the only agent with hidden ulterior motives. this contrasts with reyna who is obviously evil, but she's not gonna betray the VP, and she harvests souls to keep her relative alive. viper is also clearly seeking vengeance, but she's also the co-founder of the VP. chamber is the only member of the VP who actively worked with his double, and has been very secretive with his motives. he even told cypher that chamber doesn't want him snitching. the glitch effect really worked well for chamber because he's the traitor.

[@asheditsthings]

after all the lore sharing and discussion on my tiktok I did take stuff like this into account. Really glad you noticed it and related the glitch effect to the character and lore like I hoped people would. Valorant has amazing potential to easily have their own arcane style show, but here I am making it an anime 😅

[@V1c._.]

@@asheditsthings it can have an anime style op but also be an arcane style show

also fade doesn't have the effect where like the screen turns into a colored background with the outline of the characters filled in with white, sort of suggesting that fade isn't completely trusting the valorant protocol but reluctantly does so to find whatever or *whoever* she's seeking. but if there's any hint that she's going to be double crossed she won't hesitate to turn her back on VP

I loved when Brimstone said "It's Brimin time" and then decided to Brim those guys.

[@asheditsthings]

He really brimed, definitely one of the brim moments ever.

Brimmy with the stimmy 🤤🤤

no, like how rito did with fucking league

riot has the money and potential with what we've seen with what they do with league. It's just a matter of them dedicating those resources to Valorant

@@asheditsthings Or just make Arcane. *shrug*

[@elitefelixgamingz6025]

0:53 that battle cry was perfect

[@thefittoaster1764]

This song actually works better in this video than the anime opening it was meant for. That's how good this is.

[@stachuuchats7801]

Anime sauce?

[@meowkou_]

If you edited a whole freaking Valorant anime I’d be down to watch it

[@asheditsthings]

I don’t got any animation skills ahaha. I just edit things and besides, I don’t know if I’d have the time to produce an entire series solo 😅

[@wekono]

Kinda like arcane ?

[@meowkou_]

[@XavierGplayz_Extra]

same and also like how phoenix sniffs

[@Cs121p]

0:50 is sick, Chamber's aimsights pop in sync with the lyrics

[@AntMan-7]

Holy cow, you've managed to make it better than the first and still used Ado too, fucking brilliant!

[@asheditsthings]

Ado is just too good

[@thomasutama3827]

2 years later and this still has W aura, sigma...

[@HeetOG]

Bro just dropped the cleanest transitions and greatest valorant edit and thought we wouldnt notice

[@hanbo9755]

neon powering up was synced with the music so well, amazing

[@glowleaf]

That effect when Chamber was introduced was so perfect, it synced so well with the music

[@Trunkssan2]

bro is insane we need a part 3

[@ZodiacValorant]

This guy used Ado on both videos, I like you.

[@ChrisStuart911]

I really like both The first was amazing tho it had its off moments which couldn’t be helped due to a lack of material to work with The tone was upbeat and the music was perfect The second is more serious and feels more s2 kind of vibes where the story starts to pick up and characters start to properly cement themselves to have emotional value and the story starts to unfold The music really fit the tone and the edits improved and started to have more personality especially with the masking techniques for character introductions I would say both edits in a way balance each other out I loved the original but the techniques used for the second were much cleaner and a bit more creative and not too long that it is at the same level for me Excited to see more! Take your time I will definitely be subscribing and sharing this it is great work

[@Mr_Si6ma]

Neon is giving me protagonist vibes. Glad to see my main like that 😀 Keep up the good work!

[@Amari18]

i like how the introduction depicts Chamber as the traitor with that glitch effect

[@nechronism]

1:07 that omen transition was so damn cool!

[@klever2183]

Yea

[@srketchup1607]

yep

[@that_1filipinofriend838]

I love this! Neon got that “main-character” or “protagonist” vibe to her at the beginning, 0:54, and 1:04 .

but she IS the main character (she's my main and I love her)

[@kool-aidman7454]

Damn season 2 out already !? To be honest tho, I feel like the original one was better. This is good too but the first one had better cuts and edits imo. Edit : you know what ? Now that I look at it again after some time, this IS an improvement from your first one! Disregard my previous comment. This actually looks better. The cuts and editing is better than before too.

[@asheditsthings]

I get that. I was a little rushed for time with all the demand on tiktok and then having other work projects to work on but these projects were to mainly test out new effects such as masking and all that. Hence the character silhouette edits and the actual 3D title I learned to render. I do realise I could have put a little more thought into some sections but of course with this being the second iteration of an idea I already did, some shots/edits won’t feel as original. Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

[@Brko-rx1hs]

@@asheditsthings dont feel rushed to make your projects, a rushed one might never be good but a delayed one can be a masterpiece

[@kool-aidman7454]

@@asheditsthings Please don't feel obligated to make videos on time; take your time, do what you do best, and feel the thoughts that "you did a good video" and then post it. I loved your first video because it was creative and a great display of editing skills, and never felt like it needed a sequel or a retouche. "This is perfect as it is" is what I felt like whenever I saw someone criticise it. So don't feel bad and kick yourself down by thinking that it wasn't good. I never said it was bad, it is really good editing and you have really good skills. Love your work, Keep doing what you're great at

Wuuuu 2.0 is out! Awesome! I like the character introduction in this one! Also, the music is give off the story between rivalries which suitable for Valorant and this video very much!
