Conciderinf this was all drawn in flash, these graphics are really, really good. You should try making some really detailed animations in flash. I dono what you guys are talking about.

After you cut out the OP, there’s only two and a half minutes of actual episode, so understandably very little happens- our heroes appear, some giant monsters get blown up, to be continued. I’d like to say the graphics look interesting, but so far it’s more a case of amateur and flat.

The thing I understand about anime usually in comparison to other cartoons is that they mastered the art of limited animation a long, long time ago. Limited being defined as the use of limited frames to fake the impression of movment. I don't get that here. It really seemed like it's being animated by two guys with a single Mac G4. Audio quality was better than expected and the actors were well chosen but the visual is the important part of this show. If you're going to work with a bunch of symbols and graphic instances in flash that only rotate or scale they should atleast be drawn WELL, these were not. I mean, c'mon I've seen fully animated things on Newgrounds that are longer and have better visuals. Watching this I felt a little ripped off.

Lol, I will admit that the animation is weird, but it's not completely out there. Besides, we've swallowed some pretty horrible animes lately. The faces do look kind of funny( I maintain that all of the characters are supposed to look grumpy, but come off looking scared), but I doubt that they'll really get into emotional stuff... After all, they have all of 2 minutes 35 seconds per episode to actually get anything in, so they might just take the easy way out and push as much action as possible. And what's wrong with the peanut butter jelly time flash animation?! Haha Actually, the raw that I have is 4:05!!

This this most likely their first full-fledge involvement with anime. I sure hope that the quality would get better... but I have to agree, it's hard with only 4 minutes running time.
