[BANDWIDTH yum] Music Videos / other media, more??

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

As long as ZmOz doesn't go under or kick me off, I have 4GB of "professional" high-speed download webspace now available for filling with stuff.

Now, the question is, what would we like to try bloating it with?

I know there were a few music video recommendations to me over time, but up until now I didn't download them for two reasons; one, I needed to clear my "2 week waiting period" with AMV, and two I didn't want to like one enough to repost it on my we-all-know-it-sucks DSL hosted server.  So I'm lost again.    Any at least 90% EH content video I think is post-worthy.  (I'm not so much for 5 second cameos.)

And other than music videos, is there anything else you think I should carry?

archives of all kind???...& my combined pics


btw, is that avatar your fan art? I don't recall seeing it anywhere 'n there was time where I'm surfing for a week just to collect everything EH related

Hmm... One suggestion might be short movies of cool scenes from the show. Like Shayla-Shayla's first "power up" sequence, or Ifurita's destruction of that city. Nothing like whole episodes, but clips that might increase interest in the series for the casual websurfer.

Here's a few other cool scenes you might want to consider:

OAV1:

-Unsealing the Eye of God

-The Giant Bugrom

OAV2:

-Shayla-Shayla's first kiss

-The midair duel between Kalia and Ifurita 2

Alternative World:

-Jinnai's abuse at Shayla's hands

-The assembling of the Eye of God

The Wanderers:

-Ifurita's duel with Shayla and Miz

-Makoto's swordfight with Jinnai

Anyone else have favorite scenes they want to add to the list? Remember, they should be relatively short.

Very interesting.

I have had the idea and I'm starting the collection.

I hope that what I provide will be enough (or not too much) for the populace.

I agree with Spanner  

How about

- Nanamis description of Fujisawa in OVA2

or the scenes were Fatola and Alielle are dressing up at the two purification ceremonies??? - Alternative world
(sex sells best I think   )

I've done that.  As for the image, I honestly don't know WHAT it is.  Here is the image in full:



I really ought to open up the "unsorted / unknown" directory to the public.  Someone may know better than I regarding the origin of a given image.

[washuchan]

it's definitely great to see destruction scenes from both Ifurita OAV & Ifreeta Wanderers
The OAV has succesive destruction of one city after another, Wanderer only shows one (gigantic), but the execution is more "Su go i"!!

hmmm, now I recall seeing that full pics, I wonder if she's:

- trying hard too keep up with Jiinai's pace
- walking quietly, about to surprise him
- walking quietly, ready to knock him out cold

what do you think of the sad Ifreeta, Rob? I'd like to make it in color, but was afraid I'd spoil the expression

Well, we have the original up and ready... it couldn't hurt to try.  Color would be a nice touch.  You should practice at least and try to up your art skills.  I would love to see a few prominent El-Hazard fan artists someday.  Not counting doujinshi artists, there are incredibly few custom drawings by common people.

I would like to say this image isn't by another doujinshi artist, but it has an ownership seal on it indicating it was very likely at least a Japanese artist, therefore most likely a doujinshi artist.

this image

FYI, if no one else has mentioned it yet.  That fan art is by Tsutaya Katsuodou.  (I got the link from the Yahoo! club.)  Take a look at his El-Hazard gallery, "works" list, and "Under construction" English page.

Well, that's a start.  We need more like Tsutaya Katsuodou.  ;p

Yeah, Katsuwo is a great artist and a stand up person to boot.  KTW helped me out a few years backwhen I was looking for chibi pics for my first El-Hazard page, and even created a custom Qawool chibi for me as a gift (One I still use to this day.)

KTW also sent me a stack of doujinshi CD calanders that were simply gorgeous and it was a real pity that they were only good for one year.  There is one piece I still have on my wall that unfortunately is not in the galleries

Ifurita, with pig tails and tank top holding up Ura.  It just screams out "Wholesome Girl Next Door." Prolly the reason why it still hangs on my wall, even though it hasn't been relevant to the actual date for 3 years. ^_^

Here's a suggestion Rob. How about the ability to download soundtracks in the MP3 section as complete, zipped files? Sort of like what you have for the artbooks and such?

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

I suppose that can work.  I guess I always figured if you wanted a particular song you'd just pick it out, especially since quite a few of the soundtracks overlap.

[rowan_a._seven]

I think more music videos would be nice since they're so darned amusing to watch.  Zoot Zoot, You and Me, and Radio Free Bugrom crack me up everytime I watch them.  Additional fan-art (if you can find any) would also be a welcome addition, in my opinion.  Some soundbites of the more (in)famous El-Hazard quotes (Makoto:  I'm going to die!, Jinnai's laughter, etc.) might also be neat, particularly Jinnai rapping in the Wanderers.  Remember "Operation: Permanent Vacation"?
