Superb.
Superb.
The animation is decent, not really that much of a story though.
Main concern: Might I suggest to cut the whole second half where you advertise yourself. Don't just copy the same thing from YouTube and paste it here, it's off-putting. It means: "I did not gain enough traction on YouTube, hence I just slap the same thing here and see what sticks." Put a little effort into publishing your work on different platforms. If you put a small endscreen with a follow-me-on-different-platforms message, that's perfectly fine. But what you showed here just screamed of desperation. It's a small effort which will help you focus more on content and will lead to more comments and in the end followers here on Newgrounds.
Thank you for the feedback, I haven't posted on Newgrounds before and it didn't actually cross my mind to change that part. I will next time!
This is your first animation? Wow, I see a great cinematic animation future ahead!
Above averegge.
Your drawing and animation skills are close to some of the greatest seen here on Newgrounds. Way to go!
The sound effects could use some more bite. The story also lacks a bit and the pace is a bit too dragged out sometimes but at the same time sometimes too quick to realize what is happening. You can add some more pauses at the right times and a bit of sillyness in the next video. This one stands as the work it is.
Nontheless you deserve all the stars as this is really a great work!
Thank you!! I appreciate the critique! 🙏
I'd scream too.
Quite fun and sequels are already awaited. But I dont't get the masks. Why?

I dare not to say that I immediately missed the cigarette but... I do. Anyways, job well done. I just realize, the mouth looks like Rick and Mortys mouth, but horizontal. ;)
Although simplistic in drawing style, one stays captivated due to an excellent story. It takes time to give love into animations, especially such long ones. You deserve to be proud of what you present here. Thanks for reminding us that such simple tales can root deep.
It's interesting to read the comments. Like many others, I struggle to give 5 stars but compared to other animations, this is actually really good given that it is only a rough animation. So take these comments as critique due to the high level of expectation (which should make you proud).
- The plot and background is indeed unknown and hence I do not care for a witch looking with evil eyes, no matter if he/she is good or bad. I must agree I find it strange to look at these two (female) characters fighting fiercly with rocky fists and electricity. Not because I would not like to see that but there is a lack of emotion. They both do not seem to care. If they both feel so overpowered, why bother at all? A rather good example which came to my mind for comparison: Second part of the divergent movies.
- The hand. Even with the choppy edges still feels like a rubber glove. Definitely needs more roughness, shaking and jittering and less - as much as you can have with a rubber glove - elegance.
- The hat. Comicy sidekick out of a childrens book. But I guess that is not important in this scene.
But, as said above, this is high level critique. The fight itself is intense and with a good choreograpy!
Since more than twenty years, Newgrounds is the place I spend some minutes every day to get inspiration.
