Better then Code Veronica
I liked the new artowork, it was nice for a change, even tho it could have used a little polish just to give it that extra little bit of depth, but the designs themselves were nice, and the animation for the most part was alot smoother then code veronica which was nice, none of it looked disjointed or choppy, so even tho it was animated the same way as all your other stuff its certainly had been refined alot for this movie.
Im not going to go into depth about the humour or the fact its a parody, as i do agree with alot of people that its just the same old same old, i like to think that the reason that your last few submissions have ended up getting the feedback they have is more the fact that, most of the people who were once your fans have grown up to the point where alot of them have created there own style, or have grown accustomed to the more advanced flashes that are submitted to newgrounds. Back when you were King of the portal there was no Adam Phillips or James Farr, but now there is and its your duty if you wish to compete with this level of flash to practice and do your best to push yourself to your limits and really go that extra distance to create something thats impressive to this new generation of newgrounds viewers. There are new people coming here today and obviosuly if they saw The Yu Yu yesterday and somewhere heard of your reputation, then saw this and realised how "technically" inferior it is, especially seeing as you have such a reputation they are going to be dissapointed.
I think what im saying is people arent impressed today by what impressed people of our generation, thanks to alot of new exceptionally talented people we have alot of ground to make up for, and the only way we can do that is to keep trying and practicing until we find a formula that works, one that allows us to make something impressive in both writing and visuals. And i for one have seen your pencil drawings and know how brilliant you are in that field, if anything you should be working on a serious series that really takes advantage of your talents. Theres only one way that we can look and thats to the future, because what we did in the past is irrelevant today.
Just the personal thoughts of an old friend.
