"Not bad..."

You have an excellent grasp of proportion, muscle, and body movement. Those are three things that most animators struggle with so its nice that you are able to be this good on your second try.
However, your color pallette is really...REALLY... shoddy.
Like the part where that kid is sitting beside that dead woman; the colors were like those used on a Fisher Price toy. If you want people to feel sad for the character, you have to put them in a somber mood... and therefore use dark colors and lots of shadowing (rain and thunder also help).
Although the bright colors are perfectly fine when you were introducing the cast... you need to know when darken your art and when to brighten it up. It can really affect how the viewer feels at that moment.
Speaking of the cast, congrats on creating a wonderfully diverse group. I'm already liking the Reaper's design. Don't forget, whenever you start the episodes, that you keep that diversity. Nobody wants a team of Solid Snakes.
Well, good luck on your series.
