OP is an idiot for not realizing that this was meant to be a collaborative effort against Brawl Taunts. Rtil takes pride in being a pissing other people off, as well as having a sarcastic response ready for anything you say. He just happens to be very talented.
I understood perfectly that this was a collaborative effort about Brawl Taunts and their dislike for it. My annoyance was based on Rtil's animation itself and how it just seemed out of place. At the time i wrote the original post, i thought it was because the high quality of Rtil's animation was brought down by being in that collab, that his effort would go largely unforgotten and be pretty wasted in my point of view.
Having watched it today however, i realize what the actual problem is. While many of the animations in Brawl Funnies poke fun about Brawl Taunts or make a message, Rina-chan and the Brawl Boys seemingly has NONE. There's no remarks about Kirbopher's attitude towards Brawl Taunts as seen in the Metaphor123 skit, or the idea that Kirbopher was sacrificing his self respect to attain popularity as seen in the air balloon skit. There's seemingly no message in Rtil's animation at all. It's Rina-chan on a Friday night, going to a club and seducing Captain Falcon. I can't figure out what the message is in his animation.
It simply doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the collab. It doesn't work as part of the collab not because of the quality, but because it doesn't seem to follow the point of the collab.
I restate my original opinion. It should have been released as it's own flash and my opinion of Rtil has suffered for it, not that it matters, Rtil strikes me as one of those people who doesn't care about the opinion of others, so it's quite likely he'll never listen to any form of criticism no matter how legitimate or helpful it's trying to be. It's good for him he has a lot of natural talent for drawing and animating because i honestly don't think it will ever improve beyond what it is now.
