PLEASE NOTE

The edit was designed for the modules:
Luka - After School Mode
Kaito - School Uniform Parka

You can change these modules to whatever you desire, but keep in mind that because certain animations and camera angles are very specific, they may not work with other modules . For example, trying to use a Rin/Len combination will not work very well since both are shorter than the edit's original intended modules and they will appear in many scenes as being truncated in the camera frame. This can be overcome, however, if you know how to work with the editor and adjust the camera angles/animations accordingly. This is one of the main drawbacks of using explicit camera angles and motions in an edit.

THE EDIT

This edit is dedicated to anyone who's been in the situation of being in love and has been afraid to express it, which is about 99.9% of the human race.

Along with the original PV's associated to this song, I derived my inspiration from another edit I found on NND that I greatly admired; one that doesn't receive the recognition it deserves; "A Loving Robot". The Editor who created it did such a fantastic job that you almost don't need the lyrics to know what's going on. Although my style of editing is a bit different, I was attempting to achieve the same thing.

In "A Loving Robot" Rin is on the attack and aggressive, hunting down Len with every intention of making him submit. In "I Like You, I Love You" Rin is depicted as the exact opposite; shy, naive, and clueless. But both songs have one thing in common; Rin wants to get her man!

When I heard MJQ's VSQ cover version with Luka on lead vocal, finding that they were in English, and then finding that it was Rockleetist who translated it and who also made her own cover, well, it was just too much to resist. As I listened to the song while actually being able to understand the lyrics, all sorts of visual ideas flooded into my head. But Luka is usually depicted as the more "adult" of the vocaloids, so my challenge was trying to give her that shy, naive, school-girl persona; a girl who's still finding out about love and doesn't know how to handle it. I hope it's convincing enough, but I leave that up to you the viewer.

This project has probably been the most labor intensive of any single edit I've done to date, taking a good 2 months to create. I was overlapping the work of this edit with my last one, hopping back and forth between them depending on what mood I was in. But with the amount of detail I poured into every track's nuance, it became quite daunting, especially without having the use of multiple object selection/manipulation and no "undo" feature, which are some of the biggest short-comings of the Project DIVA F editor.

Feel free to leave any comments or feedback and it will make my day, even if it's constructive criticism.

Cheers and enjoy!
