I found this video that was recently posted on YouTube. I’m not usually a fan of people putting those comments on top of their videos, but the video quality was a little higher than what I found on Yoku.com. The name of the video is Twilight. It was created by AnimeMusicVideo.org member Koopiskeva, and features the anime series Kanon composed on live pictures. The music is from Asobi Seksu.
