Theme: Ultimate Finisher
- No time limit

My Notes: I'm happy Alex accepted my challenge to fight since I am a slow animator and this was a good challenge

Voting for Alex.

Okay, In all seriousness, Hyper. Add your eyes and mouth and all next time. You keep making this error. Other than that, I like your anim. Also consider adding stretching and tweening to your mouths to make it look more polished too.

I died in laughter. Your textbox felt a little lazy to me imo but meh.

Great job, you two!

HyperBlue
+ Introduction was well animated and interesting, seeing that you put extra effort in both characters movement was really nice.
+ Fight in general was good, your character turning sprite was done well.
-/+ Background works, but at the same time not really.
- The head expanded way too much. Were you trying to make his head look bigger because he was bending towards us?

+ The beginning was funny
+ The finisher attack was well put together.
- The text was way too big and plain.
- "I like trains" flashback gave nothing really, or am I missing something?

In general Alex used mostly basic poses with the highlight of animation being the finisher.
Hyperblue used interesting perspectives, animation was interesting from beginning to end, so my vote goes to HyperBlue.

Good job, boys!

People who say they enjoy trains must die? Don't really get the train reference either. Overall, great animation guys!

I did find enjoyment out of Hyper's animation. Aside from that blank face, some 2d to 2.5d was nice to look at, albeit a bit off. I can’t tell if the misalignment in some places was off, but it wasn’t really pleasing to look at. I did like the finishing blow a bit, with that whole super move screen show, and slow motion dashes, but the execution for those dashes and walk away, I think, could have been better.

I laughed more than I should have at Alex’s poem. As for the animation, I liked it. The spear toss to chains was neat to see, along with the small motions made to the body with the chains was a nice touch. The final slash seemed alright. Some nitpicks I do have is the text being a bit too basic for my tastes and the chains magically being in front the floor for a few frames. I won’t dwell too much into the whole train thing, but yeah, it’s just a bit weird, but a neat reference to Hyper’s other animation.

I prefer Alex’s animation. It stood out for me too, and for the most part, was pretty solid. Nevertheless, good job you two!

Voting alex, I laughed more at his poem, and his animation was more entertaining or me. Hypers' seemed way more meme-ish, but his whole show was too confusing to understand on the first play-through.
