great animation
most of the animation what breathtaking - very very impressive. but to play devil's advocate, SOME of the fighting animation seemed almost choppy. not neccesarily the part that was being animated, but that 1 person would be animated and the other would remain absolutely still, or the over body motion would seem a little awkward. this made the otherwise amazing graphics a little inconsistent. unfortunetly the drawback to drawing such detail characters and opening with such detailed animation is that inconsistencies stand out that much more.
also...remember that episode of the simpsons where homer does poochie's voice? and they're at the convention and the fat nerdy guy says the thing about how itchy hits the same rib twice and yet makes 2 distinctly different notes? ninjas-creed is a lot like that guy.
amazing work though, you obviously put quite a bit of effort into this.
