[Poninjas: A tribute]

Nice, a worthy tribute to a great series of action-filled animations! It's a bit gray, especially the background, and when the character is moving and there is nothing else on the screen sometimes it feels like he's just standing still. Otherwise, it's all good, great action, variation, effects, nice music too!

[Poninjas Meleé]

Nice! The flashy effects, the sweatdrops, the different weapons, it's all there! Some of the effects are especially nice, like the laser getting reflected, and the character holding a too heavy sledgehammer is pretty comical. End fight could've been longer though, but I suppose the idea is just to end it unexpectadly. Anyway, great flash, great tribute!

[Poninjas Episode Three]

Watched the lot of these waaay back, now I'm watching them again! :) Apparantely I reviewd all of them already except this one, which coincidentally seems to be the first one with background music and eh... background. It's much shorter than the previous three, but the effect are much much nicer than they were before, and i already know they keep getting better. This is still the best Madness spin-off ever made, rivalling the original, even. If you ever pick up the series again that would be awesome!

[Interlude]

I was going to say this was a pretty feelgood film, but the end is just.. tragic. Really ice concept though, and the sketcy style of animation works well with the setting, everythings bright and sunny til the end of the animation. Keep it going!

[BeyBlade Was F'n Dumb]

Christmas is all about having fun though, and this was a lot of it! Thank you for sleep-depriving your nights to bring us this present. Anyway, never been much of a Beyblade fan, but this makes me want to give it a shot, just cause it's such an anti-tribute. :D Animation is smooth, stylish, and the comedy is just... sublime. Keep it going!

[Music Video]

Nice and simple. Smooth animations, subliminal messages (didn't have time to read half of them) all bunched into a tiny screen with Madness-colored rays of... light? It loops, too! Really simple tune, and simple animation, but fun to watch!

[Madness Redeemer]

Another action-packed episode of pure red-blooded madness in black-and-white-and-grey oldskool awesomeness! I've watched this plenty of times already, but one more watch is never too much, keep it going!

[Madness Avenger]

Man this brings me back! These old madness episodes defined a whole generation, err... decade... or something like that. Series like Poninjas and all kinds of other craze popping up thanks to these ones, and still the series keeps going on and improving! The only real difference between these old animations and the new ones are really the colors and the transitions. Here, it's all in greyscale and red... almost, and there's barely any zooming in or moving around with the camera, though the movements otherwise are all fluent and creative, the blood splatters wellmade, the fights/shootings/whatever all varied. Didn't think about the marshmellow last time I watched this btw, that's a fun addition! Hope this series keeps going forever! Keep it up!
