Programming highlights:

AMV Documentary - Synced Together: AMVs & Their Editors (AP)
You are invited to a special screening of Synced Together: AMVs & Their Editors! After 5+ years in the making, join us for the first feature-length documentary to celebrate AMVs and the people who make them. Follow the creators of the documentary @AMVFilm and use #SyncedTogether on social media!

AMV Showcase (14P)
Experience a variety of awesome AMVs from all over! A great way to get introduced to the world of Anime Music Videos.

AMV Sing, Clap & Stomp-A-Long (AP)
The end of every show deserves a bit of roof raising applause. Come finish the weekend off right as we Sing-A-Long, Clap-A-Long and Stomp-A-Long to AMVs!

AMV Trailers & Intros (14P)
Want to see more incredible trailers or Intros to our favorite Anime that we wish were actual previews for the movie or show? If so, you’ve come to the right place!

AMVs that Ruined the Song (In a Good Way) (14P)
The title says it all... You won't be able to listen to these songs the same way again.

Animethon 10 AMV Contest REPLAY (14P)
20 Years ago, Animethon had its first AMV Contest. Relive the exciting moment from where it all started as we present a replay of the entire contest complete with the original title slates. We’ll even tell you who won!

Broadening Horizons: Hidden Gem AMVs (14P)
Beneath the veneer of our favourite popular shows is a vast wealth of hidden gems just waiting to be discovered. These AMVs pay tribute to the more obscure, lesser known, and criminally underrated shows and artists. We dare you to walk away without adding at least one new show to your watchlist!

Experimental AMV Overload (14P)
Come and take a deep dive into an unhinged, frenetic, trippy, and wildly passionate world of experimental AMVs. Probed from historic AMV infamy as well as the depths of YouTube (and who knows where else), strap in for a journey into the unknown, the unconventional, and the unforgettable.

The Pre-Midnight Run: Toonami USA Tribute (14P)
For nearly 20 years, Toonami USA is one of the longest running television programming blocks in all of North America, continuing to introduce and popularize dozens of amazing anime titles to millions of viewers every week. Ride aboard the Absolution Mk. XIV, as our hosts TOM (Toonami Operations Module) and his A.I. matrix companion, SARA, celebrate a late night AMV tribute to our favorite Toonami shows, both past and present. Stay gold!

Studio Ghibli AMVs (AP)
Journey into the mind of Studio Ghibli. Experience the magic and adventure of what makes Ghibli so awesome.

Ultimate Rhythm Power Hour (14P)
We've got the beat; you've got the soul. Join us for an ultimate hour-long non-stop mega-mix of rhythmic AMV euphoria that escalates the beat and elevates the soul, no psychotropics necessary!
