Yeah, I was really impressed by this. At first, I thought he wouldn't die. I mean, there was a point where he could live. Well, at least he could have caused the death of the girl in that one scene. Wait, he didn't even get that. The animation could be a bit better.

I really felt sorry for this guy with all those flashbacks. Yeah, I knew what his name was spelled backwards. It's pretty obvious to me. He didn't do anything gay. You knew what would happen, but it still built up tension.

Wow; I think this might be the most epic death of a clown ever! He didn't exactly fight back, but he certainly struggled to hang on as long as he did; personally, I was rooting for him to pull something at the end to at least take his killer down with him. This is a great job at doing a serious take on a silly concept, which I always like to see. I'm not personally a fan of super-vague stories, but for the context this was well enough, even though I would've liked a bit more in the way of hints as to what was going on here (yes, I saw the killer (or her brother?) in the memory bubbles at the end, but it wasn't very clear what that meant).

To be honest, I didn't understand it. The death of the clown wasn't that heartfelt because the entire video was of him being killed by who I'm assuming to be his sister. The animation was okay, but it seemed like a stop animation that was being drawn. This was obviously supposed to be a sad movie, but I wasn't touched, mostly because I wasn't really sure what was happening most of the time. The armor the girl was wearing was unnecessarily complex and bulky, especially since she had a sword and a gun on her already, not to mention that there was a lot of blood. Too much, in fact. It didn't even seem like actual blood, just paint, because it had no shade to it. If there was a lot of it, it would almost seem black. All in all, it had potential, but it lacked a quality execution. Nice try, but please try again.

haha true ^^
