im not a big fan but
i do enjoy watching a few of these. i dont follow this series religiously but its fun to see whats going on with them once in a while. part of the reason that i haven't watched all of them is the animation. like... the story is good i guess and the art, as in the backgrounds and characters, is interesting. but the animation is so choppy sometimes and the movements are mechanical. really, you need to look at all angles of a person walking, running, jumping, etc. b/c those shots of them running are relatively pathetic.
on the contrary, i dont think it was as stupid as some people were saying to have a quieter episode. it can enhance a story if you do it right. However, i dont think you did it right. if this was supposed to show emotion and set a mood, you need to get a lot more facial expressions and show what everybody's feeling.
i am looking forward to the next episode, but honestly... watch people walk, do short little loops of someone walking, stuff like that b/c it's really bringing your work down.
4/5 when will the next one be out?
