Great i loved it
Masterpeice. I havent cried in over a year and i vowed never to again, i not gonna say i did from this animation cause i didnt but it brought a lump to my throat. Very touching. I've seen similar ideas before but this was so well put together that it just shines above the rest. This has earnt its space here and i congradulate (sp?) the artist who made it. Job brilliantly done.
This is truely the ultimate flash
Never have I seen such a touching and well done piece. the only part that bothered me is when he said to skip the little talk and I am pretty sure you didnt want to use the cliche lets skip the small talk but other than that this was the best thing I have ever seen on newgrounds and anywere. You truely are an artist
Graphicly beautiful and thought provolking.
That was truly one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. The drawing style was amazing, keeping the level of detail constant and refined throughout. The story conveyed a continuous meaning, and the plot flowed smoothely (where many movies seem to stray), and it drove a message home at the end. The sound, however, was lacking, mainly in quality and music choice, which slightly detracted from the effect. I can't blame you, however, for nice mics can be hard to come by, but the music choice did seem a little... cliche? In any case, these factors detracted very minimally, and I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, nice work.
Storyline
First off, nice one for the great flash movie; you're obviously talented. Briefly scanning the reviews, they mostly praise it, including the story line. That's where I've got to disagree. On the plus side it kept to the objective all the way through - so many flash movies move away from the story line just to make a joke, which losses the focus. On the negative side all the characters appeared very 2D - all heros have a dark side, some haunting past or something which then motivates them, yet no particular indication was given to why he wanted to kill this king apart from "saving the day". Also its a characters flaw which usually make heros so appealing, as they over come their flaw so are more the hero (or something, being vauge here). You say this dude was out for revenge, but what makes the revenge personal? What would be awesome is if u made more of the same character, but from before the event, eg. why he became so good at swordfighting, or what pushed him into such an apparent suicidal yet selfless mission? Bla bla bla anyhoo lots of scope for more storyline please make more because I did enjoy. Cheers.
The best on NG
NG should have more flashes like this one and less crap ones. It was brilliant. I liked the design of the main character. I loved the music and the ending hit the heart! The girl at the end is the fairy transformed, am i right? I loved it, its my favourite on the whole of NG. Iam voting a 5/5. Please, please, please make another flash like that! :)
