First off, good animation. Obviously you know that it's rough but you clearly put a LOT of effort into it and that shows. For such a long animation you chose good techniques to make the process of animating more bearable for yourself, but I also noticed those techniques right away (when I saw the old man talking I was like yup he's definitely not moving out of that position for a while)

I think you should have gotten a voice actor for one of the guys. The accent was fine but when the white-looking dude has the accent it tips me off that the voice acting is all done by one dude. The lines were decently delivered, though a little stilted sometimes.

I think what you'll see a lot of is people taking issue with the arguments because they're religious or whatever. A good way to circumvent that is by having more counterarguments emerge that draw what the old man is saying into question. Even if he rebukes all of the pints perfectly the religious side will still feel like they've had their argument heard (it also doesn't help that the conclusion seems to imply that the old man is genuinely correct in believing in god)

I guess what I'm saying is there is a line between where the audience knows that they're listening to a character and where they know they're listening to the creator of the character. We could tell pretty early on that the old man was a self-insert for your ideas, plus a bit of drunkeness. Nobody likes to feel "preached" at, so more characterization of the old man would be good.

I liked the jokes at the end, they were kind of stilted but I got what you were going for. Very much like that the old man was fucking with the business man, fits with the theme of the animation nicely. Keep it up my dude.

Thanks a lot man! haha yeah you are right, I was planning to make them swap between at least 3 poses, but I don't know why I didn't do it.
Good point about the voices, I will definetly use some other voice actors in the future, but is to early for me, at the moment I'm focusing on improving my work as a whole. I've been learning to animate only by watching some youtube tutorials and at the same time trying to figure out how to write and act, so I have a long way ahead of me, I'm taking it slow.
As for story discussion you are absolutely right, I'll keep it in mind. I didn't want it it to be like it was me, thats why I chose the old drunk, but I see what you are saying too.
One last thing, the ending of the animation (God showing up) is a reference to an other animation of mine, the idea is that is happening in the same universe. Please,if you have the time check it out, I would love to hear your thoughts on that one, its on my channel, called OH MY GOD.
Well that's it man, thanks again for taking the time to letting me know all this, I really apreciate it.
Promise I'll get better, best of luck!

But... but the pawn was NEXT to him! I'm no chess expert, but I don't think that's a checkmate.

There's a lot of good things to be said about this flash. The art is certainly there, and the animation is not lazy. For example, at 00:37, you can really feel the weight behind the girl's punch. It's comical, and the animesque style didn't put me off. Yeah, it was slow, but there's nothing wrong with pacing (as long as the pacing pays off with a girl rocket launching some guy). Sounds are nice too, the music's fitting, lots of work evidently went into this. It does what it's trying to do nicely, and it just goes to show at the end that girls be crazy.

A little disappointed that there was no boss at the end.

Solid. Played till the end, nice style.

Sharpnova's review was one of the dumbest I've seen, this was great. I did get a WebGL error on my first playthrough after selecting "I've got to go" though.

zephyo responds:

Same I was so confused. Thank you and thanks for letting me know.

Oh, hai there. Why are you on my profile? Geez, now I feel all uncomfortable.
