Reviews for "Sakura vs Karin"

You really have improved over these last 2 submissions, I like it. The only drawback is not giving Karin her voice sounds, but that's just a minor thing. Ugh...why are cliffhanger? =/

But wonderful work nonethless.

This was in the works during both of the last two uploads. lol, I'm not sure what her Original voice was... I just grabbed what came with the file I was given("Dark Karin")
I'm glad you enjoyed it though! thanks for watching~

Sprite animation for me is like my relationship with Dragon Ball. I adore the original Dragon Ball for the very straightforward martial arts display and struggle without much flare or uneccessary excess to the process.

Although still a fan of Dragon Ball Z, I found that the overuse of repetitive flare and excess to be a bad turning point for me. The point of the analogy is this, modern day sprite animation either focuses on the fundamentals of animation or simply flare and repetition. What I enjoyed about this animation in particular is a subtle blend of great, basic animation and a few "modern" elements and effects.

More bluntly put, I find myself enjoying this animation much more than work by say.. Proxide or some of the other bigger names in sprite animation. You've done a great job taking two sometimes counter-acting elements of the genre and formed an accurate and balanced presentation of them together! I really do look forward to seeing more work like this, and I'll be keeping an eye on you in my favourites.

((P.S: Story wise, I think there could have been a more elaborate background on why Karin was using the Satsu no Hadou plus Sakura's minor use of it as well (Air hadouken, Gou hadouken, etc) but it didn't effect the enjoyment at all, this is just coming from a long-time Capcom fan, heh.))

I'm glad you noticed what I was trying to achieve! Basic Animation and a few modern elements and effects. lol Well said :) Thanks alot, this will help me in the long run!

P.S. Reply(lol): Everything WAS explained when it was a series, a week ago... I just simply smashed it down to a vs flash, but I couldn't take out the story elements between or it would look really stupid, trust me I tried :P

Awesome but... why do you cancelled street fighter epic legacy?

TechLeSSWaYz responds:

Well, if you go back and see the previous Episodes. more than 3 are unfinished due to corruption files. It seems to only happen with this series. And that was like..the last straw for me...
Sometimes I can be a quitter, in short. So yes, I wil be this time.
And thank you (:

The action was really well choreographed and the background was really appealing. Did you made them?
I also like the way you animated the movement. It felt really natural and it's as if I were watching a demo of a videogame.
You could have zoomed more into the action, but I know for a fact, that most sprite animations involving fighting-based characters are like that.
Personally any other BGM would be more fitting, but it's just a personal opinion.

Overall, it's really well done. I hope, that you won't have to deal with a similar problem in the future.
Stupid things like that, make my hair go white.

TechLeSSWaYz responds:

Backgrounds were made by me, yes.
I'm gld you enjoyed it! I hope this corruption crap stops... but then again half of the time it's my own fault so I can't be too mad, right? anyway
Thank you!

Ohhh that was epic!

TechLeSSWaYz responds:

Now that's the word I wanted to see! Thank you very much!
