I went to AnimeCentral with my SO the Saturday before last, and something’s been bugging me since then. I was hoping you guys could help me out.

That morning, we went to go watch the AMVs (Anime Music Videos), 'cause we’re both interested in the technical aspects and he makes them. They decided to flash the information before each video–what series it was from, what song it used, etc. This was, I suppose, consistent, but it had one small flaw: people like me, who don’t know their anime, couldn’t find out what something was if they liked it, but hadn’t remembered what it was called.

I saw a video like that. I didn’t catch the beginning, but the video was based upon what seemed to be angels (wings, halo, the whole nine yards). The anime style was soft, sort-of pretty–it reminded me of .hack for some reason. I know it wasn’t Black Heaven, because there was another video that featured them, and the styles appeared completely different.

I know this is kind-of vague, but it’s been driving me crazy ever since I saw the video. Does anyone have any idea of what it might be? Linking me to pictures would be really, really helpful, since, if I see them, I might recognize them. Thank you!

**Earthian,** maybe? Didn’t see it, though. **X** had angels in it, too. So did **Oh My Goddess . . .**

This is probably not helping . . .

It wasn’t Oh My Goddess… My SO watches that, so I’ve seen a few eps. Not it…::checks them out::

What was the song? If you know the song, you could probably find it on [animemusicvideos.org](http://www.animemusicvideos.org/) .

What about **Steel Angel Kurumi**? I’ve never seen it, but doesn’t **Bastard!** have angels?
