["Throne" Into Disaster]

= I didn't think i'll ever need to use this reference but.. HEADSHOT!

Ah yes..... i totally forgot that the origins of stick men came from things like Stop signs and toilet symbols, Sadly this specific stick man is have a bad day with keeping a stable condition, and i mean that literally.

The animation wasn't too bad,the sound Quality wasn't too bad giving out good synchronization with the visual effects, the sense of direction is considered comedic no surprise there considering you would have to be completely high to see a moving stick man moving about while you're trying to impale a nail through the stick mans head,although you know....... I would consider Super glue, but goodness knows that stuff is a nightmare.

[bunnies.]

= I made a vow never to make furry jokes, but really? bunny teabags?

So like two bunnies are in the park, yeah sounds like a bad joke, although i must add the presentation intro gave me the impression it was going to be a sing along when i saw you could toggle for the subtitles and the bouncing bunny head hitting the lyrics, thank goodness that wasn't going to happen because i wasn't in the mood of singing.

Never the less, the animation quality is debatable, i haven't seen the full potential of this show, this being one show for me, i would need to see others episodes if there are any, the design of the characters were pretty effect not to mention simple.
The direction was a comedic theme and pretty well on the ball too, the quality speaks well especially for something approves of it being in HD, the sound of the voices, cam out as Cute but annoying, and the climax was........ like how the female bunny put it. "wow"

[DIABLO IS BACK B_TCHES!]

= If i had to name what kind of a creature he was in "Furry Land" i think i would be giving big bird too much credit.

A Triumph of what is to be narrated by the fellow story teller, shows it's true colours with a glorious back story, of a warrior who had become a name for his village, until 12 years later his test for recapturing the victor would be tested once again..

The animation was pretty decent, with some very good transition effects from different perspectives, such as the big beast being defeated and the scene of the village.
Although having said that, the animation can also seem to be quirky at times too, the direction was well thought out and planned to an extent, until near to the end it looked like that the animator ran out of ideas and started adding random jumping sharks like the pokemon battle interface, although the impression it first gave me was a serious drama that soon was shunned away when i saw that these characters where not human, if this is comedy then more has to be harnessed around the humour factor..

Zatchell responds:

It's pretty much what we were aiming at, some humor with a slice of drama. The end may seem a bit confusing, but that's because a part 2 is planned for this video. We decided to go with cartoon animal characters for our animation, but we'd like to hear your opinion on whether you would have liked it better if it were humans instead of animals. Nevertheless, we appreciate your honesty, thanks for reviewing!

[Episode one]

= The horse took an arrow to the knee....Lets not even go there...

The world of fantasy comes rich when following the tales of a blues skinned humanoid named Xullrae, who made that perfectly clear "twice" when mentioning her name to the poor half dead Transapian, Since we don't know who "Miranda" is, we can assume it's not the hot chick from the mass effect series.
I think what worries me is that think she was ready to mutilate the poor guy, if he didn't get the name right the second time, a Girl is usually serious when her hands are on her hips, let me tell you.

What stands out the most is the sheer amount of effort put into the presentation, along with the setting being very serious and pretty convincing at times.
The scene that stood out for me was when Xullrea's foot was the only thing seen in one frame and at the back distance was a pursuit, its little things like that throws the edge of hardcore perception.
The acting is decent, but could be improved by adding more emotion and psychological references.
The direction of this movie was very well done and speaks well within the open world they involved themselves in.

haaa haaa being a fan of Skyrim I really appreciate that joke. Aslo it is funny you mention Mass effect because I am also a fan of that game :D And I liked Miranda's character and that is partly why I chose that name for Hazalin's (horse guy) crush.

lol yuppers Xullrae (little drow) doesn't like incompetence on any scale lol. Its what makes her so fun to use in the story.

This is the first project I have done on this scale and the insight of your comment was very helpful so thanks very much for taking the time to right. Much appreciated

[Samsquanch Quest]

= winnie the pooh punching another bear? He's got Balls of pooh.

After waiting for a good 7 minutes waiting for this to buffer, it was a show of awesome. The Direct dive into the story was magnificent, the amount of frames used was well spread out, and is some what convincing to be an actual feature, the perception and awareness of the characters was well done and so was the animation, however the animation itself, is a definition of crazy morphed shapes at times with both the face and body,this alone can considered deliberate for comedic uses, but at most time the face scale would be big in one scene and small in the next.
The direction and plot was adventurous, and that's what i love to see, having great fun with a story and playing around with it, the result always comes out surprising and always sparks of vitality for more future episodes.
