not bad but a bit of recycled materials. animation was good, but the speach was low at times and the sfx were a bit loud.
pretty much anything mech, mecha, frame, wanser, armored core, exo-skeleton, mobile suit, etc, has been said, done, and replayed before.
but, this is the FIRST episode, so up coming and later ones should be improved.
it isn't bad, but it's a genre that's flooded, you just need to stand out of the crowd.

Wow! Did I just spot Xin and Hanto!? Nice! XD

Lol, yeah. I'm friends with their voice actors. They actually did the extras in the episode and will be appearing later on in the series as actual characters.
14mins jeez this must've taken forever
This could shape up to be a really good series. It reminds me of gundam seed. The voice actors are pretty good. My only recommendations to make it better would be to study human proportion more. Everybody else has said the same things
It's got potential, just take your time and gradually step up the art game. If you're doing anime style pay attention to the proportion of facial feature/ and bodys and make sure when you're doing pose to pose that all the key poses are solid. Don't be afraid of getting detail into the characters. That said I can't wait to see the next one!
AdamTilford responds:
Haha, it took 6 months. I'm choosing getting the story out over higher quality. As I go, the quality will definitely increase as I'll become more accustomed with the style and balancing it between work and writing books and such. The plan is to get some animator help, background artists cause I hate backgrounds >_>, etc, etc.
Glad you enjoyed it so far. :)
I agree with some of the other comments, I'd like to know my characters before I'm flooded with more, but either way I think this is off to a decent start. I wont comment on the art because if you're working on it and improving there is nothing I have to say. The character Mike's voice makes me laugh but it starts to bother me as much as Yugi's voice did after hearing him for a while, but I wouldn't want it changed because his voice and way of speaking does make him unique in terms of speech, but it can be toned down a little bit, at times. Another thing about the characters is that I'd like to see some character development later on in the story. This sure as hell does have potential, and y'know, I've always been kind of a mech guy so I'll definetely continue to watch this :P. Keep working hard, I want to see a dramatic story, epic fights and tragic deaths. By the way the ending of this kind of reminded me of Gundam Seed, especially the outfits the people had on in the last picture.
AdamTilford responds:
There will be tragic stuff. I just didn't want to start out with all of that. Kinda wanted to show the main character now as unassuming and then you can see his growth. I suppose it could be comparable to Seed's endings, but I really came up with what I wanted to do out of nowhere. Probably could have been subconsciously inspired by Seed but it wasnt a direct intent. Characters get cut down in the following so it's more focused. Should have done that to begin with but oops
