Reviews for "The Necromancer Episode 1"

Whoa, unexpected!

Despite the not-so-impressive graphics/animation, this has got one impressive plot! This is one charming necromancer, very interesting fella. Having played Diablo 2 and Warcraft 3, this guy reminds me of Arthas (Warcraft 3) and the Necromancer (Diablo 2)... sorta like a combination of both.

Very cool

ok come one

ok good drawings but god damn he has to do something with his hands.. its so lame that he does spells to kill a whole mob of armed ruthless slaves. come on! yeah necros do spells but they also use swords,bells, and summoned spirits. come on you cant just have a him do a few fucken spells and rule all

Alright...

This is a good start to your series, although with a bit of thought I have come to a few gripes which I'd like to point out.

The visual style is one of them. I know that you must not like it when you get knocked down all the time for the way your movies look, but from my view, I'd rather you just let the series look like Comet Magnum than Comet Magnum with traced and edited random anime (Fist of the North Star) images.

You should also work on the coloring too. One character can't be shaded by gradients while another is colored by solid colors. It looks sloppy.

I'll have to compliment you for the one-man voice acting. I was able to withstand it without immediately screaming, "It'S ALL THE SAME GUY!!" However I suggest you find yourself more VAs soon, before you got to a character (female) that can't be done justice no matter how you hide your voice.

Later.

Your right about a female voice, but, seriuosly, where would I find a girl willing to do some serious voice acting? If there are any out there, PLEASE HELP ME!

Not bad...

The story line was not too bad, but the whole thing stretches over too much fucking time... it was pretty slow-moving... the guy took his fucking time... the violence sucks because the author pays too much attention to blood instead of detail (moves, technique, spell lights and what have you)... however, it was a pretty original idea... i'd watch episode 2 cuz 1 caught my curiosity.

Xpected a bit more

I liked the flick. Not bad animation, interesting story, but this episode seemed kind of pointless. I never really learned much about the main character. Most of the cartoon is spent with him killing people, rather than consentrating on the plot. If he's going to kill someone, it should help him get one step closer to the empire. Douglas wasn't much of a threat, so I don't count him as a "plot-kill". However, that won't stop me from watching the next ones. This was entertaining, despite the reckless and sometimes repetetive killing.
