Reviews for "Shattered Heaven Ep. 1"
Pretty sick fight animations, I deducted 1/2 star because:
1) The Intro was fucking cheesy as hell, the narrator's accent was unbearable for some reason, it sounded fake or something. Had to skip past the intro.
2) The script in general was really boring.
3) Animations of people talking need serious improvement.
Especially if you're gonna make dialog and storyline a key component of your animation, you gotta work on 2 and 3. Otherwise, cool shit, cheers.
I actually enjoyed it, although the animation could have been a tad bit better xD. Other than that, I'm definitely interested in episode 2.
Wow! You got my attention. I know I'm late to game watching your series, but I'm glad I discovered it. I plan on watching it all the way through. First off, is one of the background characters in the early scenes was suppose to be XIN from the XIN series, lol? It looks just like him. You animated a LOT of movements for all of the characters, that is quite a feat. None of the characters looked stiff, because in every scene, a character was moving, even if the movements where small. Good job on that. I also love the Ending theme, the music is good.
I agree with some of the other comments, I'd like to know my characters before I'm flooded with more, but either way I think this is off to a decent start. I wont comment on the art because if you're working on it and improving there is nothing I have to say. The character Mike's voice makes me laugh but it starts to bother me as much as Yugi's voice did after hearing him for a while, but I wouldn't want it changed because his voice and way of speaking does make him unique in terms of speech, but it can be toned down a little bit, at times. Another thing about the characters is that I'd like to see some character development later on in the story. This sure as hell does have potential, and y'know, I've always been kind of a mech guy so I'll definetely continue to watch this :P. Keep working hard, I want to see a dramatic story, epic fights and tragic deaths. By the way the ending of this kind of reminded me of Gundam Seed, especially the outfits the people had on in the last picture.

There will be tragic stuff. I just didn't want to start out with all of that. Kinda wanted to show the main character now as unassuming and then you can see his growth. I suppose it could be comparable to Seed's endings, but I really came up with what I wanted to do out of nowhere. Probably could have been subconsciously inspired by Seed but it wasnt a direct intent. Characters get cut down in the following so it's more focused. Should have done that to begin with but oops
