Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

UPDATE: MADE A FEW EDITS got rid of excess slow-mo, and someone ( I forgot) told me that Show No Tears was the better song so took out Devil's Dance! For those of you who keep saying Sonic cant fly, think of it this way, he is moving so fast gravity cant keep up. And in the game Sonic and Black KNight Shadow can use blast without emeralds, in fact there are no emeralds in that game but shadow fights like Vegeta with a sword.

HOLY CRAP an AWARD?

EDIT: There a lot of things I could improve on I think what most people are saying it that it is good at individual scenes but they dont necessarily flow together, and too many slo-mos. Other than that I think I did so so, since I haven't use flash in like 4 years still stuck in AS2 but for this I learned some AS3. Sorry for the lag since some people don't have Flash player 10, because I had some 3d layers so I couldn't make it FP 9 Sorry.

This is just flash practice, I do plan on doing some real animations that are drawn. Why should I waste time drawing everything just to practice cinematography and motion and action sequencing. Just like drawing, if you know how to draw accurate proportions but need to work on rendering, waste time drawing, when you can borrow line art to just work on rendering skills.

Okay so this is a long way from Super Sonic Warriors. Sonic Adventure Z has been canceled, I wanted to do it but buy the time I got flash all of my custom sprites and storyboards were gone on an old computer. I thought why not do just a battle, after all that is what most people enjoy in a sprite flash now a days, mindless violence. ^^ ENJOY!

P.S.
Im to lazy to edit to the credits so for music, thank the NG Audio Portal. Furthermore, the names of the non NG portal songs in order are: Knight of the Wind (Sonic and the Black Knight), Training (Track 07: Best of DBZ Trunks Compendium) and Metal Ridley Boss Battle Theme (Metroid/ SSB Brawl)

Reviews

Slow-motion,I don't prefer those

In this battle,they are too many slow motion scenes,but animating in 3d seemed to make up for it.
Before Shadow spam energy blast sonic,who is at a pillar,the rotation of sonic is out of place.Work on that.

Hmm

I guess you have to be either a naruto fan or dbz fan to understand this 100%

Nice effects and good choice of music really nice animations compared to most stuff.

Gets better towards the end.

I've seen alot of Sonic sprite movies and few of them are worth remembering, but this one wasn't bad at all. It was ok in the beginning and got really good in the last couple scenes. Wasn't expecting all that. Pretty cool effects too. Great job buddy. hope to see more of that.

added to my favourites

this should be front page material

Nice.

These shadow vs sonic no reason battles are kind of old, but you seemed to have made something quite good. You seem to have a lot of talent. Just a few pointers. There's no need to change the song as many times as you did. If you go off and start showing a different battle, then yes, by all means, but you changed the song too many times. If you had chosen just the one that fight the mood of the fight the best (in my opinion, the Show No Tears song) it would have made everything a bit more epic. That's the only thing I have to say. I'm sure you're tired of hearing about how much you ripped off SMBZ, and I really don't care, because you put everything together nicely.
