Another excellent submission.
Excellent as usual. Any news on the "mysteriously disappeared" characters? Like Mikagami and gang (well, harpuia), X and zero, Crey and his girlfriend... and most importantly, leviathan? I'm kidding, but what about mikagami, x, zero and co.? I'm looking forward to the next episode, nice work here.
One last question, what game is song 007 in music select from? I'm drooling over it.

Yeah, I realized I haven't shown the characters from Alpha City in a while. Well, I'll say right now that you see Mikagami and Harpuia in Episode 8 for a couple of scenes. I'm still trying to decide whether or not Mikagami and Harpuia will be involved in the monster horde event. If they are, at what capacity would they be involved? Personally, I'm thinking that they will be involved, but they won't be directly involved like Chris and company will. I guess you'll just have to wait and see how that scenario will come to fruition.
As I mentioned in the previous review, X and Zero are at the Action Continent. They're making their way to CC headquarters. They won't be seen again until the next story arc. They're going to help Chris and company with something...
Renge isn't Crey's girlfriend, but has absolute loyalty to him. As of now Renge is currently waiting at the rendezvous point for Crey's event to begin so that she can finally do her part in this event. It isn't too important though...
Crey is still on another plane of existence as he sets his plan in motion, meaning doing a ton coding. Once it all starts he'll return to the ludas animans world to wait for Chris' arrival in Atra Kingdom's castle throne room.
Now, for the final question.
Song 007:

I'm still currently working on episode 8. I haven't really gotten to the meat of episode yet. I'm kinda stuck at a scene I want to portray, but I don't know how I want to portray it. I've been at a stand still for the past two weeks because of it. Hopefully once I get passed that scene everything else for the episode will be easier to think through. So I still have a lot of work to do on episode 8.
For X and Zero, they're currently at the Action Continent. They won't be seen again until the second story arc.
Anyways, thanks for the comments and I'm glad you like the series.
Very impressive
Until a few days ago, i had no idea that a series such as this existed. I'm usually on the lookout for good sprite flashes like this. I guess titles can fool ya. Anyways, i do like where this is going so keep at it. If there's a possible way i can help out maybe, let me know. I can maybe try to throw ideas and see what works. Oh by the way, i was wondering how many genre continents are around this ludas animans world? There's the Action, RPG, and the small mention of FPS (which an average gamer should know what that means). Somehow, there's sure to be more than that in the near future. Anyways, keep it up. I look forward to Ep. 8.

Yeah, I thought the title could be why users don't bother to see what this series is. I mean, if the title is something recognizable to gamers out there like Mario, Zelda, Sonic, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, etc. they immediately check it out. With a name like ludas animans, you don't know what the heck that's about and don't even know it's a video game related sprite movie.
Anyways, it's cool that you stumbled onto this series.
For the continent question, I haven't really thought what other continents there would be, but I have some ideas. There is offically another place southwest of the RPG continent called the Castlevanian Islands. I've yet to decide if Chris and company will actually go there or not. I'm a big Castlevania fan and I feel like doing some things with it, but I think it would be considered filler (although episode 8 seems to be filler...).
The Action Continent is a combination of Action, Adventure, and Platforming genres. I'm thinking of other genres as Fighting, Sports, Dating Sim, and Puzzle. I'm not sure if these all qualify to be continents, and I'm not sure if I'll make any of these places official since I don't think Chris and company will ever visit them unless it's requested, and even then I'd have to see if it would be even possible to do such places.
Anyways, thanks for the comments, and I'm glad you like the series.
Wow
I have to say, im VERY impressed. im actually disturbed that this didnt make front page. It took forever, but it seems you finally got it done. Hell, it was definately worth the wait, ill tell you that. But i think you should make it a little easier for yourself and not make the episodes so long. Maybe only half as long as this one, so its easier to prepare and release. Just an idea. Ill keep an eye out for your next ep!

Thanks for the comments. I don't mean for the episodes to be so long, they come to be that way when I animate them since I make up the story as I animate, so the episodes aren't set in stone until I'm actually working on them (minus the major plot points, of course).
Also, the initial release was kinda rocky because the movie didn't load for some people. It worked fine for me and others, but I had to fix it for the users it didn't work for. So while I was trying to fix it, I didn't know if it would work with the users when I uploaded a new version because the movie always loaded for me. So I was stressed out about that and asked the users to let me know if it worked for them or not, but no user ever contacted me to let me know. It wasn't until sometime later that one user helped me out with this whole process and gave me the lowdown if the new versions worked or not. It wasn't until its 4th or 5th version did it finally work. The problem was the preloader bar as it had faulty coding it seems. I didn't know since I didn't make the preloader bar, but either way I removed it. So I give a tremendous thanks to the user Goten-2 for helping me all the way to the end with that.
Anyways, I thinks that's all I have to say since my thoughts are coming to a blank now.
woot
good! hopfully the next one come out soon! cant wait.
A lot of characters in the story, its not a bad thing. But i have seen many stories make plenty characters and ends up making the story very chaotic. You should spent some time focusing on develop them farther. their personality, past experience etc... (just an advice because i have great expectation in this serie)
the storyline so far is excellent, as i mentioned before. creative! high 55555
