View the official MTV here. I heard this song before, since it was in my playlist. Simple Plan is about the only non-Japanese music I listen to, due to my having attended one of their live concerts here in Singapore back in junior college.

"I can wait forever" is their typical slow emo ballad, that appears to be a staple part of their album list. When Animax first announced they had chosen a Simple Plan song for the opening, I was thinking probably the more fastpaced ones, but they chose one that would’ve been more suited to the ending instead.

The MTV didn’t make sense to me until I realised the "characters" were actually animated versions of the band members. Think of it like the Aozora no Namida PV featuring Takahashi whatshername. It doesn’t hold a candle to the animation of Linkin Park’s Breaking the Habit though, now that was GONZO legend.

For you guys still wondering what the hell this LaMB is, it’s a sci-fi anime series made by Animax Asia, meaning outside of Japan, based on a script by this Philipines guy who submitted it for their contest. Basically, it’s a futuristic dystopia where criminals don’t get put into prison but are suited up in control suits to do labour.

WHY is the ad below the post “Buy Some Artificial Vaginas now!”?

I don’t really like the Simple Plan thing. It will get the series a rather emotic aura.

Would be more awesome if it was Dream Theater. I think GONZO did their video too.

Even though you mention a correlation between Simple plan and Linkin Park I was about to look it up at AniDB when I read “made by Animax Asia”.

That’s just utter failure waiting to happen. I’m glad I didn’t spend precious bytes of bandwidth with this trash.

Simple plan is NOT garbage, dude.

Do not use any < and > for your own sake. It will end the comment there and then. Also, there is an automatic IQ filter which weeds out comments made by those who accidentally got transported from the stone age.
