Ickicky's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hatsune Miku Gets a Very Important Phone Call]

Ha! Nice work!I like the muted colors you used for her pallet.

[SaboNEE Chan]

This definitely could have been a gif on the art portal, but here we are. Advertisement grounds.

[Ella 500 Follows]

E for everyone yes?

[Kinshin vs X-The Return of the One]

Finish your traced/rhotoscoped animation

[Kevil the Japanese Devil - The Pilot]

This is great! Definitively felt like a pilot more than a thesis film to be honest. This episode definitively delivered a lot of Exposition on what got Jiro placed in his predicament, however we don't get any insight into June the spirit character or why she's with Jiro. She could have sent him back alone to talk to Akari. The ideas you have for the story written in the contract are really neat as well.

Animation is nice, I'm not a big fan of paper jiggling representation, but it saves time. There's a lot of good character acting in this and I look forward to seeing more demons and yokai.

The big Shoki fella (I assume?) Should speak Japanese if you're going to have subtitles! But I'm sure there may have been some concern about people understanding his accent, but honestly I don't think the subtitles are necessary.

Best of luck!

Stradomyre responds:

Yup, absolutely more of a pilot. I just decided if I’m gonna spend all this time in college animating, might as well make something I actually want to make in the future. :)

Yeah I agree June could have been fleshed out more, my focus though was primarily Akari and Kevil. A lot was actually cut out from the original board.

And hehe yeah the puppets were done to save time, but it worked out stylistically in the end. :P And I didn’t think the subtitles were necessary either, but people indeed had a problem understanding his accent lmao. Anyway, glad you enjoyed the animation and characters! Thanks for watching :D

[Baozi's Quarantine]

You actually changed it to M, wowee.

Diives responds:

It wasnt me 😶

[Lotad Splash]

Pssst, This could have been a gif in the art portal if you're only going to make a loop with no audio. Just so you know.

oh yeah! Should've thought of that earlier! Sorry! >.<
