  Here's my 8th video.
  It's again a Full Metal Alchemist one, and once again an Homunculus tribute. (Homunculus, Homunculi or whatever)
  In other words that's the second part of a two-part video series, you can download the first one HERE.
  
  Somebody might complain about the unoriginality, but I think that this video is rather different than the other one, and not only on the themes that it touches, but also the editing, that contains sure more digital effects. I’ve also tried to don't use the same video sequences of the first tribute, to don't make a "dejavu" effect. ( and that maybe was a bad idea, since it complicated a lot my work on finding good scenes with the Homunculus)
  
  I worked hard on this video, and it's the one where I spent the most time on (something about 120 hours) like I said before there are a lot of digital effects, I think that they’re good and I haven’t exaggerated, but I’m really interested to know the opinion of the viewers about that.
  
  The song is “We’re all to Blame” by Sum 41. The mainly reason why I used this song is its lyrics, but I also liked how the music was able to express anger and sadness at the same time, like the Homunculus in the anime.
  The AMV contains a lot of spoilers especially about the identity of the Homunculus, I’d suggest to watch it only if you have already watched all the episodes.
  
  That's all,
  I'd love to know what you all think about this video, so also a short comment would be really appreciated!
  
  Lyrics :
  Take everything left from me
  All
  To
  Blame
  How can we still succeed, taking what we don't need?
  Telling lies, alibis, selling all the hate that we breed.
  Supersize our tragedy.
  (you cant define me, or justify greed)
  Bought in the land of the free!
  (Land! free!)
  
  And we're all to blame,
  We've gone too far,
  From pride to shame,
  We're trying so hard,
  We're dying in vain,
  We're hopelessly blissful and blind
  To all we are,
  We want it all..with no sacrifice!
  
  Realize we spend our lives living in a culture of fear.
  Stand to salute and say thanks to the man of the year.
  How did we all come to this?
  (you cant define me, or justify greed)
  Agreed that we just can't resist!
  (Resist!)
  
  And we're all to blame,
  We've gone too far,
  From pride to shame,
  We're trying so hard,
  We're dying in vain,
  We're hopelessly blissful and blind
  To all we are,
  We want it all
  Everyone wants it all with no sacrifice!
  
  Tell me now, what have we done? We don't know.
  I can't allow what is begun to tear me down,
  Believe me now, we have no choice
  With our backs against the wall.
  
  And now we're all to blame,
  We've gone too far,
  From pride to shame,
  We're hopelessly blissful and blind
  When all we need
  Is something true
  to believe
  Don't we all,
  Everyone, everyone,
  We will fall.
  
  'Cause we're all to blame
  We've gone too far,
  From pride to shame,
  We're trying so hard,
  We're dying in vain,
  We want it all,
  Everyone, don't we all?
