[1 Punch Stick - Episode 2 (Vs Yoyo)]

Heeey you forgot the badass outro. :P Catchy credit music, though!

As for the animation: the motions do feel a bit slow still, as if the gravity is lighter than normal. For example, when the blue figure gets up after the yoyo explodes, he looks a bit like an astronaut shifting positions in space, not a grounded figure who needs to tense his muscles to get up... you know? Another thing, that makes movement feel stiffer I think, is that not all body parts move for all parts of a motion. For example, when theblue guy jumps over 1 Punch Stick with the yoyo, 1 Punch Stick only ducks with his head, and moves his arm a little, the rest of his body doesn't budge/bend/anything, which seems a bit unnatural. It's difficult to get natural motions, but that's where most improvement could be made IMO.

I'm impressed with the animation overall though! Interesting angle with the yoyo, good balance of close-ups and side-view, the yoyo string wasn't always the most natural as it moves, but when One Punch Man... sorry, Stick - is holding it, the slack looks perfect. The fight's nicely scripted too, it all makes sense; follows a red thread, has humor and variation, and even voice acting! :D Wasn't expecting that! lmao copyright issues. XD Good episode; looking forward to the next! Keep up the good work!

Hey thanks man. I understand what you mean about not looking real. I guess i didn't notice it because i was trying out other things this time. I will try and make it better though.

I did put my outro in the video. It's right at the end after next ep coming soon.
I'm gonna have to fire my voice actor if he doesn't get his act together cause personally i thought it was bad.

It felt like i'd been working on this for 2 weeks when in reality it was only 4 days. its weird. You think i should make the episodes longer? tbh i would if i could but its not really easy with him being one punch stick

[Qumi-Qumi "Money Money"]

Long time since last episode! :D Awesome as always, colorful and creative, abnormal and alien, and with more tech than I was expecting from this tribal toon... but looks like it's not just a pre-historic, but a distant world far far away. And still, their world all revolves around money. :P Nice one.

[Fantastic Plastic]

What a transformation! I thought for sure it'd be just a bad dream; a morality lesson he'd wake up from at the end... or that the cycle would repeat itself, but this time he'd be the dog/pig. Well, it didn't turn out how I expected, but nice twist nevertheless! Refreshingly unexpectable idea; smoothly animated. Great work.

Short, simple; sweet! For all but that five. :D But alas, we shall not dwell on the past, nor stall in the present, nor wait for the future (any longer)! Happy New Year!

[1 punch man]

lol, didn't seem legit in the series. :) I guess some things might be different here!

Nice seeing a tribute to this awesome anime, in stick form none the less. The motions feel a bit slow though, Maybe you're going for a slow motion effect, but at the start of the fight for example, it just looks like they're slowing down. Also, that green guy, is he supposed to look old? If he is the cyborg (Genos), those crinkles under his eyes might be a detail that emphasizes age more than you want.

Well,looking forward to the next ep; seeing how this series unfolds! The 12 episodes of OPM weren't nearly enough. :)

Dreamimate responds:

LOL ty xD Your comment is very much appreciated. This is my first animation so excuse it for being bad? The green guy is known as as Alfa or FLLFLL. He is a popular stick man and yh he is old. I would reccomend watching Alfa VS umbrella. It will all make sense after as this is like a "what happens next".

[Explosions]

Heh, gotta love those squeaky sounds of interaction. :) Love the minimal style of animation here, without backgrounds, and focus more on expressions and interactions. It's fun, and so very smooth and natural in motion too. Also, wonder how many pair of the same clothes she has! :D Or do they regenerate automatically? Well, in the world of animation all is possible! Creative comedy, and refreshingly harmless.
