Lame, lazy attempt as a fight scene using sprites.

KanetheKnight makes a lot of good observations, but his rating is far too forgiving.

Choose music that fits the scene, and tone down the volume of it. I found it too loud. Also, the sound effects were far too annoying since the voices were just text boxes.

The textboxes were a pain to navigate, because the button to continue kept moving around. This made it hard to focus on the text I was reading.

The battles were animated fairly well... for a sprite animation, anyway. My only complaint about the fighting is that the characters were not using strategy of any kind. Also, Inu Yasha does not fit at all, and he was teleporting all over the place in the beginning yet could not do so during the battle.

Wow.

Okay a few qualifying statements first. The pre-loader's music was incredible.
The fight scenes were actually well-choreographed, and interesting to watch.
And now the bad parts.
The text was unreadable, the spelling and grammar were awful, the sound effects were uninspiring, and the fight scenes moved too slowly. And what the -fuck- is InuYasha just randomly doing here? And why can he teleport and stand on water?
The cut-off was out of nowhere and really jarring.

Some tips? First off, make the battles have different, faster music to suite them. Second, make the fights move faster, or they get boring and really slow down the narrative. Third, try to keep everybody in character, but this really only applies to InuYasha; he's a brash, arrogant kid who would never dream of asking this little spiky-haired brat for help in a fight against some random ninja.
You should also consider making the fights more in-motion by using zooming and moving cameras, and the rare-but-appropriate slow motion effect.

I can't believe I actually liked this flash, but I did. So I'd like to see some improvements later on.

And seriously just sprites and images you ripped from youtube, create something yourself
