Reviews for Ánima by Gusana

Great work, but creepy taken out of context

I never read the Author Comments before viewing; I don't want any of the surprise taken away or to have my opinion skewed. (IE: I think a good flash should have all instructions in it, and should express its story without needing outside explanation). Anyways, while watching this, I thought he and the doll had a sort of father/daughter relationship. So then the doll turns into a girl, and she jumps on him and kisses him; I suddenly became creepy, pedo, loli and awkward. Then it ended, I read the Author Comments, and once things were put into context it wasn't creepy.

Nice animation, good choice of music, touching sentiment. Another in a very limited yet fine selection of yin works on here to help balance out the over-population of testosterone-laced flashes on NG. Great job!

gusana responds:

thanks!!!! and thank for the constructive critic, yeah well about the father/ daughter relationship, I feel like protected with him that's why the doll is so small so the girl... well the girl is short because i'm short XD and he's my boyfriend, my best friend and my protector.

Loved it

I really didnt expect the girl to turn into a real person. And did you make the music on Mario Paint because it sure sounds like it.

gusana responds:

i didnt make the music, but yeah it was made in mariopaint.

Minimalista, pero bien animado, y el soundtrack quedó perfecto. Me gustó mucho.
