Reviews for "-The Guardian-"

Pretty good

Hmm overall this flash was pretty good, there were a few parts in the anims tho that weren't THE BEST ex, when the beat was summoning the flame with his hand felt stiff, and so did the run cycle a bit ( still good , but just felt wasnt perfect. Try to exagerate the run cycle more it felt very stiff, but most of the poses were really good along with the fbf. backgrounds were simple and well done, and the story was great. Overall really good effort regardless, I do think this is a bit overrated though, but fuck you put in a lotta work so im not sayin shit =D

Thank you for the review! I didn't notice it until now, but your right. Some of the animations were a little "stiff". Well that'll be something I'll have to work on in my future projects. Anyways thanks for the heads up on that! :]

Beautiful

This is just beautiful, silent story telling with good animation used and the use of simple animation design, though could be a little more smoother, but I digress, this is really good and hope to see more of this

pretty good

but why is there a random guy just there and that first guardian died instantly!? itd be nice to kno a little history of the guardian and the boy too, great job im not tryna hate tho

Really cool.

I suppose I should start off with the parts of this I didn't particularly care for, just to get it out of the way:
There were a few confusing parts to this, and I saw a lot of places where more description would be nice (for example, what was that fire-looking thing? who was speaking to him? what were the monocle'd man's motives? etc. etc.). I know it's harder to do that in a video with very little dialogue, but it's not impossible. The art is rather simplistic and could use some work-- in more serious stories, I like a little more detail. But maybe that's just me...
Now for the parts I liked.
Despite a couple plot holes and moments of confusion, this was really good. I know from that bit up there that I wrote, it may seem like I didn't like this, but I assure you that I was just being critical; this is actually really good. The concept is great, and the design of the guardians was pretty awesome. The music was beautiful and gave the story a bit of a wild, ethereal feel, and you synced it with some of the scenes pretty nicely. It was involving and interesting and it would make a great series. I don't know if you've done other stuff with these characters or this universe, but I really, really hope you develop this story. You could do some really great things with this.
So yeah, it was good. :)

Hurk...

Cliffhanger syndrome just kicked in. This is really good for a short flash. You tied in the animation with the music so well, and the music is amazing. I just hope you at least have plans for making a conclusion to this story.
