Reviews for "Gwain Saga - Chapter 001"

Good work on the animation. The mixture and changes of the art style throughout the episode is a nice touch, and it mantains the attention of the viewer. Sadly, that won't make your show stick out from the rest, what would be a pity, since I would love to see this series developing it's own fandom.

My main problem is with the writing and the music. The characters are way too cliché, so are their reactions, it looks like you're plagiarising every anime ever. Not that I have a problem, and if it's what you want to do go ahead, but it makes the characters lose appeal, in my opinion. The dialogues, well, the aforementioned statement it's applicable. All in all, I think you should put more personality into the characters and the dialogues. You already have your own style in the art section, why not give it a go on the writing.

I like how you have envisioned it as a animated comic, we don't see a lot of that nowadays (even less taking into account you are doing this pretty much on your own).

On the other hand, I think you went too far on using videogame songs. Even though the music is very good, and all of us veiwers recognize many (or all) of the tracks, it gives away the opportunity to feel that we are watching something new. It can be

In conclusion, seems promising, and I'm looking forward to chapter 2. Very keen on the art, not so much on the writing, and would love to hear music that I haven't heard before next time.

Good job and good luck!

Freaking awesome!!!! :DD
Can't wait for part 2!!

It's like a silent movie but with sound. Sound effects to be exact.

Well, the same goes for video games as well (RPGs). Dialogue is always used in text form, but you see their emotions when acted out (despite this story being told in a Third-Person point of view). The acting between the duo and their connection is romantic. And, I'm being "posulate" because I'm not sure if that's the direction you're going. Well, I shouldn't say it that much as it's the story is the typical heroic damsel in distress.

Plus, the extended use of references from both the story and music is a bit overwhelming. Actually, I think this is nothing but references. Which is makes the story predictable (depending on your knowledge in culture). I'm not gonna say anything more about it here, because this is just the beginning and their is plot to be told. If you can catch me off-guard, then it's a movie worth watching. So I'll be looking forward to that.

Keep up the good work and go easy on the colors. It's practically too bright.

This is very good, but I have one itty bitty complaint: The colours are a tad too bright.

I really enjoy the comic book aesthetic to telling the story, but I will admit it feels a bit rushed in a few small aspects. But overall it's still very enjoyable to watch.

Keep up the good work man, can't wait to see more!
