    The opening is way too long... and gets annoying rather quick. But also the main animation looked nice but I don't get why is there so much fire particles everywhere. That kinda ruined it for me.

    The man in the opening should just stop. He takes up 1/4 of the video.

    Absolutely fuckin great dude, holy wow.
    Just a few nitpicks with the overlays and colours you picked for the background and whatnot, it's abit jarring and taken away from the animation IMO,

    0:53 to 1:05 was beautiful - probably the best part in terms of animation and fighting choreography.
    It's a brilliant scene and usage of AE overall, but I do think some of the camera work is too excessive in style, to the point of dizziness. There's too much spinning at one point when the characters themselves aren't really turning, and so that whole section would've been better off on a tracking shot or wide to depict the scale and speed of these characters. With the camera rotating nonstop, it just looks like they're rotating their entire bodies without any foot or sliding movement. Just imagine someone in real life watching these two from a still perspective and how weird that would look lol.

    I also have to agree that the color scheme was rather outlandishly distracting. Red's great for danger and psychological tension, but too much gets to a point where the background and environment is both distracting and looks surreal/overboard unnatural/apocalyptic af...unless that's what you wanted. Regardless, a bit of contrast in the visual colors would've helped.

    Other than that, the animation, choreo, use of different perspectives, and VFX was stunning. Nice work, and good luck with working for SA! Seriously good luck D:
