Thanks for critique of the round 3 entries, I wasn’t expecting you to be this thorough about the entries. You touched on several things that made me feel the need to respond back, not to change your mind on anything but to make you better understand my mindset on some things.

Final Fantasy style presentation 10/10.
Glad you liked it, Yoshitaka Amano is my favorite artist and ‘Final Manarchy Zero’ had such a good ring to it I had to pitch it akiofren and we made it a thing. I drew the picture and akio did the sprites and ‘menu ui’ on of my favorites part of doing r3 :)

Meme Intros

These are simply me and the team taking the piss and having fun. I can see how they can see as ‘Americian juvenile humor” and the like but they are there as silly little reminders for my team and the people watching it not to be take the tourney so damn seriously. Without them we certainly wouldn’t enjoy the tournament or the content we made as much without it. You were right in pointing out the meta-aspect of the shorts, it's there, but we mainly wanted to show the boys just having fun together and making the best of a shitty situation that they were in.

The King’s Gaze

I can’t understand how you feel like a third wheel in this entry, and I agree 100% that Vormio didn’t deserve even a crumb of a fraction screentime that they’ve gotta in this entry and my effort to include them in the animatic was completely wasted on some who didn’t deverse my efforts. But my decision to make them take center stage ultimately boiled down to what would be the most intriguing story to tell rather than playing safe a making a by-the-numbers fight. I originally wanted to kill Alexis in a glorious bloody battle and give you’ll a taste of the ill fated king’s backstory that ended with a desperation coin toss that bodycount would’ve done. I had music picked and I started storyboarding immediately and everything!
