This was my 2nd AMV and I know it didn't make it to the voting.
But I am wondering how I can improve.

Well, you asked for how to improve, and I couldn't really put together a good synopsis. I'm not familiar with the anime, so that's the main thing.

Personally, I think it's a fun idea, but I'd make the regular version and Christmas version as two different videos, or shorten each of the songs, at least. It runs quite long, and I think it's a safer bet to err on the short side of running time. Though this is a "storytelling" type song, and that makes it a little more challenging.

thank you, for the reply,

maybe later I'll make them as 2 different ones.

the anime was the first Transformers of the 80's, I grew up on it and was most likely my very first anime.

It's not an easy thing making a video to a fun concept and maintaining the audience’s interest for the full duration. I think the most important consideration is how much time you take to "tell the tale" and if it's too much or too little time to do it. 

When I make a video I always how long do I need to show my concept without my audience loosing interest. In this case the idea was novel and I agree that it would of probably worked a lot better being a shorter video. Hope that helps and provides some feedback

so redoing it as 2 "different" videos would be better? is what y'all are saying

I think making one shorter video would of been better. Two of the same videos I find takes away from the concept of jsut one
