This weeks AMV of the day is Requiem for the God Emperor by rini10010 from YouTube.
Coldplay’s Viva La Vida goes together perfectly with the character of Lelouch Vi Britannia, the character labeled as the Emperor for the AMV. Through his story and its development and his ascent to the Britannian Throne as the 99th Emperor of the Holy Britannian Empire followed by his global hegemony creates the mentioned perfect collaboration. Lelouch’s ultimate sacrifice for the world and those who yearned for the future is one example of his worth to this song. Literally having becoming the king of the world and a person who “ruled the world” is another. Finally, one of my favorite examples, is that Lelouch fought tooth and nail to achieve his throne for completely altruistic reasons; making him, in my opinion, of the best protagonists whose story has been told.
Enough with the spoilers, watch the Anime if you’re interested in his story. Definitely worth your time :D!
