Reviews for "Girlchan Contest!!"
Too bad yusuke wasn't lip synced
Agree with Magza. Feels like you are getting good votes on latest flashes, because it became everyone's habit. Creating this contest might be a breath of fresh air for you
I don't get the criticism
So after reading a couple of reviews I'm astonished by the unnecessary criticism and negative attitude. Sure, this ain't no movie but the idea's kinda fun. Give the authors a break and try to see the fun side of this.
Great initiative.
Egoraptor responds:
thanks man that's really swell of you to say :D
A character creation contest?
Girlchan is not my favorite flash around here, in fact i kinda think it is a little anoying, but to make that kinda of contest might make things a little more interesting.
Just sayin'...
Nice commercial for the contest. Already entered twice, but I've seen a lot of entries that were better than mine.
I'm actually commenting more towards all the people who are so against this contest happening or who hate Girlchan or whatever, who are saying that Girlchan is lame and that it isn't well-animated, and just because it's Egoraptor it's getting frontpaged. It's true that this is getting on the frontpage because it is Egoraptor, but there are lots of other reasons why.
The fact that Girlchan is everything stupid about anime (and dubs) compiled into one big series of animations is something that people on the internet can definitely understand and get behind. This is why Girlchan has probably gotten so popular, despite the fact that people despise it for whatever reason. So because this series is well-known on Newgrounds and beyond, it makes sense for the crew of Newgrounds to want to bring attention to a contest like this, one that could pool the creative minds of its community together into some sort of fun competition (and force them to use the new art portal; I hadn't used it until this contest).
There's also people who are saying that there isn't a lot of effort put into the lip sync and the character animations and whatnot. For the most part, no, there isn't much character animation; they usually just statically stare at each other and don't move much (although when they do move, it is quite well-done). However, did it ever occur to the people who are saying that that the fact that he's trying to do episode after episode of Girlchan might be because he wants to get it over with so he can move on to other projects, where he'll be able to actually show off more animation and new characters and things? As things are now, Ego's sort of stuck with Girlchan at the moment, and as that is sort of the case, he probably just wants to get through this next episode so he can get to work on the next stand-alone piece similar to Mr. Literal or whatever.
I'm not Egoraptor, and I could be totally wrong. Just some food for thought.
