Berns can eat shit!
I'm kidding. I liked this flash. I wish you hadn't stopped it in the middle. You should have called this part one or something. I was just getting into it. This flash rocks. Well animated and quite funny too. I can't wait for the next one.
Really though, Berns can choke on a dick. Eat some shit salad ya fairy!
Glad you liked it, and sorry you only had to watch a preview. Look forward to the next installment!
...and sorry things aren't working out with Berns.
Hmm...
I see a good bit of potential, but it doesn't seem like you're reaching it yet. Yes, it's obvious that your art style, the powers, and even your character were heavily inspired by DBZ, but that could still be improved. I have dreams sometimes that seem like great ideas, but to the rest of the world who wasn't a part of that dream I know it won't have the same nostalgia. To be honest, I had some problems with this flash. Dante appeared to me to be an overly emotional kid, inexplicably granted with powers which he uses to throw power tantrums to which no police action is taken. He also likes shirts that don't fit right even when he's just standing still, revealing his stomach in a homo-erotic manner. Also, he will randomly sing certain lyrics to System of a Down songs as he throws said tantrums, but not the entire song, conveniently breaking something/powering up/spontaneously bleeding in sync with the beat. This really didn't explain much in terms of setting the character's past up. He's emo (which I'm not saying as a bad thing, Sasuke is pretty emo and he's awesome, Shinji Ikari is very emo, but that was the absolute best part about him and made Evangelion entertaining to me), it has something to do with past females in his life, and he has powers. That's about all we know. I do want to see this as a series, but not so much if the rest of the episodes are just going to be music videos of him smashing random property. I would love to see some plot. Find out who he knows, where he got his powers, what it would take to make him stop crying all the time and smashing stuff. Show me those things. I look forward to future episodes.
i see everything you're talking about, and it makes perfect sense, i agree with you on alot of things about the video as well although the whole beginning portion up to inside the skool by the lockers is where i really started to concentrate on the artwork and animation and detail although i know the animation could have been better i have worked on this same video a number of times but never actually used this character for the video before and you can rest easy because from episode 2 and on there isn't going to be anymore music videos, all the episodes following this one are going to have a dialogue and plot and there wont be any crying (unless it comes across in the story line like if someone dies in the series) another way to look at it is that since Dante dies in the end of this video blowing himself up with the school, it pretty much shows that the video is more for pure entertainment purposes, in episode 2 i'm going to bring out some things about Dante's past to surface as well as the start of the actual story line (kind of like what DBZ did in japan with that pointless first episode) so in a sense, episode 2 is the real episode 1, so i'm sure that one will make a much bigger impact than this one as a music video/dream/pure entertainment pleasure, thanks for watching and thanks for the review, as far as your review goes, i'll be sure to incorporate your suggestions to my ideas for episode 2. thanks again!
Yup
Put Manger everywhere to make it good.
Acutally, it was only a joke for my friends in my class...wasn't really something to make it better.
oh and as your information, Manger in french means "eating"
Confusing
The art was kinda cool, but it didn't have a plot or any real entertainment value aside from a little eye candy. It was creepy (which i assume you were going for), mostly due to the mentally challenged eunuch (the man's proportions and weird goatee suggest he is an adult, yet his voice sounds almost childlike, if the goatee was supposed to be a shadow it shouldn't be triangular and that big, if the man was indeed supposed to be a man, his voice should be deeper and his proportions more childlike). Who is the evil being messing with the retarded man, and why does the plant come to life? Is it possessed by the evil narrator thing? Is the retarded man having a retarded dream induced by his psychotherapy drugs? This isn't really funny or dramatic or... Well, frankly it's not cute, just creepy as I said. The plant eating him seems pointless and half-baked, like a "I don't know where I'm going with this flash so I'll wrap it up with a half-assed ending" kind of deal. You have a decent amount of artistic talent, but you need more creativity. Try making something of substance with a plot or something cause I bet you could make something good.
Starting from your last comment, I believe it takes more creativity to create content without the 'standard' plot. The protagonist is not a man but a teenage boy, and yes it is a goatee. The plant character is the tangible form of the interviewer who may have wished to consume the boy from the very beginning. The boy is not retarded, he is merely a juvenile innocent. However, fair enough that you did not like it, that's your opinion. Thank you for your comment.
You have skills
The art is cool, and I think it will be an interesting series, but you really should have waited and made this longer. This is more like a preview than a full episode. The fact that I like so much about this flash makes the fact that it's so short annoy me that much more. I think that if you're going for a full episode you should at the very least have 2 minutes worth of flash. On part two I think, personally, that you should hold off until you have about 3 minutes or so, then submit it. With your skills you'll get a crazy high score.
yeah but as stated in the description i have a shit pc. my pc was struggling just to load this one as it is.
i can understand what you're saying though, i'll try and make part 2 longer
Wait, wha?
We'll go with 5 stars because on the one hand the art was very nice. The animation was great and the effects and stuff was really beautiful. This was fun to watch and you're a talented artist... However... Does "You lied" refer to how the viewers should headline their reviews? You said that if I read the preloader comic I'd understand what was going on but I'm afraid I don't. I understand that he's your basic amnesiac hero searching for someone (in this case, apparently two people: the love interest and someone who saved him previously). He has a sword that's alive and thinks of him like a brother. He has the typical hidden power that causes him to lose control of himself to a darker persona thing going on apparently, but the comic set the story up to go into a tournament. In fact with the way the preloader comic ended I expected the flash to begin with one on one combat straight away without even any dialogue. So I was extremely confused to see his spirit(?) fighting against his own inner workings in his stomach or something. How was his spirit physically trapped in his lower body if it apparently came from his brain? When he made it to the brain what was to keep him from taking his body back right there? Why did he feel he needed to turn around and go after that thing instead? And if the thing is still in his head why can't he just go back into spirit mode and fight it again? At the end of this flash it was obvious that they weren't in an arena about to fight the final part of a tournament, so I think the preloader comic is pretty misleading. Because of the confusion there (and the fact that forfill isn't a word) I can't give you a higher score. I do look forward to future works by you though.
No they weren't this is the start of a new tournament. As shown on teh preloader this is the audition for joining. The other contestants will be doing similar entries to get in. Episode 2 will start with the actual OC on OC fighting.
Confusion...
So... I liked this the first time you submitted it and I think I left a review saying such, but... Why exactly did you resubmit? For a couple of nicer special effects? I don't understand.
Nightbird Uses Confusion ray. Oh no Blessing is confused :3....Well There where a few things I wanted to add in but because our time ran out I couldn't. anyway thanks for the fare review ;)
I see...
I don't really like the office but I put that aside for now. This is just a video of you playing a song. This is something for youtube and not Newgrounds. I was willing to ignore that fact and give you a passing score out of pity, but you end it with a retarded "fuck you" (that seems like you're either honestly retarded, speak english terribly, or you're extremely embarrassed and ashamed because you realize this is the stupidest possible thing you could do and yet you do it anyway). This honestly makes me hate you as a human being. So, in honor of your flash, "Fuh Koooooooooooooooooo" too. You get a 0.
Yes, I'm mentally challenged. And I would have gotten away with it to if it weren't for you meddling kids!
Nice!
It loads and then gives me a notice screen about it being stolen. After reading it 3 times and looking for the button to proceed, then right clicking and realizing i couldn't click a play, I gave up on this horrible creation. Dick move to make the filesize so big for a one screen piece of shit. Die in a fire.
all i feel is pitty for you, you cant even mkae one good flash movie...tleast this movie got a green good rating, i feel sorry that a person whos been on NG so long is a complete asshole. Sorry that you make fun of others because you cant get anywhere

Good News and Bad News
The good news is it's just as good as the countless sequels by Krinkels himself. The bad news is that this series jumped the shark after the first or second flash. It was cool at first but it's been done to death and it's never anything new. Poorly drawn motion tweened puppet guys fighting with decently drawn weapons. High body count, low effort. Dialog? Plot? Who needs these things. "Hero wants to kill Villain. Kills several people in different rooms with different guns but the same basic appearance. Subtract any realism, originality, character development, or plot twists. Add fight with clown and/or bearded man. Die. Repeat in sequel."
There was no motion tweening in this, but i think that if you think it is as good as the madness sequels than give it their scores.
Be a blessing to others and you will be blessed.
