Too short

Another decent showing, but something a little shorter than what I was expecting - you could have put a lot more into the piece itself, giving much more plot, for what it's worth.

Little details caused issue here - the guards for Medralia castle being reflected was poor. I would suggest that you do the cheat, but make sure that the tabard (chest cover) is made to look right, otherwise the whole illusion is ruined.

With how short the episode was, giving us a "previously" section wasn't the way forward, as half of the episode is catching up and then only half is left to give us new material. I like king Jack, but I think that your stock of voice actors is limited, so perhaps consider asking around for more vocal talent, to give you additional dialogue for the pieces. That can only help, especially if they present a professional outlook on their own work.

Something is going to happen with this series, but getting to where this something happens is what you need to do now.

Thanks. This was a "break episode" in that it still advanced the plot by having them go to the place they should but they chattered.

With regards to my stock of voice actors, I have 4 or 5 voice actors voicing for Adrellia Village now so that shouldn't be a problem.

The closest an Adrellia Village episode got to recognition was winning daily 7th. My clock movie, however, got 3rd place.

Seemingly getting there

Well at least they are making process and getting towards Adrellia Village anyways. Nice how to previous part shows them preparing and this episode is just a little chatter, music, and then going on their way to the place they must go and check on.

The animation seems to remain the same as usual which is perfectly fine. Only problem I have is credits at the end. Instead of skipping back to the start have it stop there and let the music play while the viewer sees who all helped make this and where the music came from.

The music and voice acting was nice so good work there. Only recommendation is moving away from the mic a bit so you won't hear the popping sounds every time you hear the letter p.

Overall, nice and short.

Yep, this episode is a little "break episode" as I like to call it. No epic battles to be found here. Interesting input on the credits. I'll tell my voice actors since I don't voice the characters. Thanks.

Hmm

Well, it's a bit hard to review this one without having watched the previous episodes, but I really don't have the time to view them all right now.

Anyway, not too much happening in this episode, so I think it could've been a bit longer, or maybe you could've added a short preview for the next episode (which on the other hand could become very tedious if you always have a "last time on Adrellia Village" and "see next time on Adrellia Village" in every flash...).

I think the animations are a bit lacking here. When the army moved they where just floating up and down. Would've been much nicer if we could see them marching, or at least using their arms end legs a bit.

MistyE responds:

Yep, not a lot happened in this flash - in fact, the recap is half of the animation. That's why I'm surprised this peaked a 4.00. I'll work on the army marching. Thanks.

yeah okay

Just a thought, you should spend more time on each episode rather than just pumping them out crazy fast. With better art and animation it could be a popular series.

lol

lol poor army dudes tho, sacrafices their lives (idk tho) but the king is fat & lazy but anyway funny flash!
