Beautiful.
Beautifully animated and well executed. The best Pico 2010 entry, alongside Pico's Brother.
Reviews for "Pico & Friends"
If Pico was animated by Osamu Tezuka
That's what this show says to me...
the cutsy anime'ish styles that were once beloved during the 60's style of japanese animation.
Though...voice acting would've been promising too for more enjoyment.
Not even gonna finish it.
It looks amazing and is cool, but please just get some one to voice the thing. I don't want to read while I watch animations, I just don't. Sorry to be such a prick. Your skills are awesome, your flashes are too, now all you need is sound and less clicking to get through the darn things ;P

Hehe. Nah, that's a valid complaint and something I'll consider. Thanks for the review!
Great effects animation
Your character animation not so much. Unfortunately because your effects looked so smooth and fluid it really made Pico's animation look all the more static. Still overall it was good, I didn't particularly like the text box thing goin on as it kinda broke the momentum. The story was fine and nice and simple stylistically and I appreciated the easter egg :)
Good luck with the competition and I hope to see more stuff from you

It was intentionally static during the conversation bits, similar to how story is handled in JRPGs. I can understand that not everyone would be into that method of storytelling though. Glad you got a kick out of the egg and thanks for the review!
kick ass
Too bad you couldn't get any voice actors, however that didn't deter me from watching the whole thing, and finding that strategically well hidden easter egg. 10/10 5/5!!
