About

"You Say Run" Goes With Everything is a series of remix videos that combine any choice footage with the My Hero Academia song "You Say Run." Videos are usually edited during the climaxes of action sequences, where the intensity is focused on the fast tempo portions of the song, while the resolution or a respite of the action is conversely paired with the smooth, mellow portions. "You Say Run" has naturally been favored towards action scenes of other Anime titles, but has also seen usage in clips from action movies, Video Game cutscenes, sports racing, live brawls, and more.
