bro, you took on a massive challenge that even a huge studio failed, berserk is a very detailed manga, understand that you're one guy. For one guy taking on such a difficult task, this is beyond amazing and very inspiring! You have mad skills not only with blender modelling, sculpting, animation, drawing, procedural fx, and texturing, but also, your video editing is nuts! If you try a simpler style like Naruto/bleach I'm positive you could nail it! keep up the amazing work!

[@kuba890p]

He nailed this but, it was a huge effort to just make one scene, a single episode would take months to make even for a studio

[@OneTyphun]

@amogusgaming.6681 Yes, nonetheless, this guy's work was very impressive. But it was just too much for one guy. It's like one guy taking on a full army. Yes, you can knock a lot of enemies down, but in the end, you won't win the war. Just imagine if this guy ran a full studio... His production management seems great also!

this

[@rmg480]

It's an easy mistake to make possibly because they wanted for us to be able to see the frames, but impact frames are something you process almost unconsciously. You don't see each individual frame in all of their complete detail, but it creates a specific visual effect that the animator is looking for.

[@sh0ts420]

yea you play the video at 1.75x speed its a lot better in my opinion quicker, also add some more weight to it and boom perfection while already being better than 2016

[@Bardaer]

​@@sh0ts420 I just did play it in x1.75 and holy hell. Yeah. That was hella different. Damn.

[@guss25100]

And it has to accompany the motion of the character. In his case the Guts goes forwards and backwards before even actually moving and the distortion to match the movement is there before he actually moves, so it looks weird. Great job tho

[@nick_laze4930]

This is amazing. The only "critiques" I can give are making the impact frame shorter and adding more weight when the swords first collide

[@idumooo]

was gonna say this as well

[@sh0ts420]

exact thoughts

[@Mond3e]

Yeah the first clash looked like guts was tapping his sword against his

[@PlazDreamweaver]

And movements should be less stiff-they look toyish. So do the static, unchanging faces in long, zoomed-in shots, as well as the lack of lighting. For 1 guy and about a week and a half of work, this is great, though.

[@kugelblitzkrieg]

Also forgot that Guts only has one eye near the beginning.

[@oranbrady5582]

Don't feel bad about anything, your a one man animator and still produced something better than an entire studio working on berserk 2016

[@Nobodily]

One issue I have despite it being so beautiful Is the fact that the beautiful impact frames happen and then a very small sword clash effect happens which doesnt feel fully to scale in terms of power But it does kinda feel like one of those scenes where a water droplet falls to signify a big attack Idk how to say it properly

[@Lux86_]

I was thinking the same about the feeling that it it doesn't scale in terms of power. The build up is just humongous, but when the swords clash it is like a default "kling" sound like it was just two normal humans fighting and not two beasts with enormous power.

[@jezd2223]

the thing about the "impact frame" is that its a lot more on just flashiness than on selling the movement,,, and since its such a long scene it sorta makes the blow feel sluggish. the scene with zodd lunging towards the camera was amazing, though i think it wouldve benefitted from some anticipation before the big jump, i think the image of his face covered in shadows and his raging red eyes was amazing, this animation is a big feat!! especially for a single artist

[@m_da_edglordcringy_boy6527]

This looks AWESOME! Minor bit, the moment their swords impacted felt weak and lackluster as if it had zero impact. I think it would've had more impact if the other guy's sword got pushed down more, the sound being more crude than silvery, and if you wanted to go all the way, add a single black-and-white impact frame between the swords colliding scene and the Shockwave scene.

[@Gokusolos3691]

The thing is, the other guy Zodd is a superhuman demonic being called an Apostle it'd make little sense for Guts no matter how strong his sword is to push him back much

[@joshuaconklin8378]

Yea the sound is to pingy and the delay between the hit and the impact is too long. Like other people said if you speed it up it looks a lot better.

[@Telmach]

15:04 That one single person made this is damned impressive. The smear frames really worked with Zod - but with guts in the first shot his arms look thin and noodly. It might read better if his arms were widened at the shoulders and tapered down towards the thickness you went for in the final shot by his wrists. After Guts was sent flying could benefit from some minor tweaks as well. As he's flying through the air, slightly stretching and tapering him would convey higher speed. Faint action lines in the shape of a cone around him mimicking a supersonic mock cone is also effective at doing that. There is no visible plowed snow from where Guts impacts and drags along his back. If when he impacted the ground it kicked up some dirt & grass, had a more substantial thud sound, and had some screen shake it would really sell the power from Zod's tackle. All minor things mind you. You did a knock out job!

[@murilodude]

Words can't describe how awesome this is. Congrats. Your work really inspires us all.

[@iinkstain]

the impact frames are so good individually but they’re just doing so many contrasting movements, instead of selling one motion like they should be. also the sword clashing thing was my favourite, that’s so perfect. edit: holy shit i just looked at the end showcase IT LOOKS SO GOOD

[@grudat2431]

What nobody should forget is, that even the transitions (for example, the one between chapter modeling and animation) are all projects in blender itself that would drive you crazy as a beginner. Nice work, my man! I love your efforts! Not even start talking about the work for editing in premiere pro and after effects (or alternatives).

[@kirbowaffle]

[@emanuel3617]

This looks amazing!!! The impact scene with the swords is perfect!!! Oh only one think that could make the animation even better is the litghting. When trying to create anime look in 3D I found out that most of the time you don't want the lights to be realistic, you will often want to place fake spots of lights in dark areas and maybe more suns that don't make any physical sense, but the same as the poses makes it look way more artistic when looked from the camera.

[@Dethgears]

The problem that occurs with the sword hit is that there is too little wind up and far too much swinging, if you remove like half of the frames in that shot; it'll feel more impactful because there would be more implied force.

[@rexrip1080]

I was wandering how they made Arcane since it had an awesome style and found a tutorial for it. They used a method where the basic mash was textured manually with hand drawn textures and all the extra lines were projected from camera. After that they hand painted additional shadows from frame to frame. I am over simplifying the whole process but that is the gist of it. Check it out, might be something you can use in the future... Awesome video btw!

[@Pxilez3d]

Let's be honest, yes he really did amazing job here but,... if this was real anime no one would watch it lol

[@vivisfailedclone]

this shit looks great my only two pet peeves are that for the initial arm swing for guts, you kept the noodle arms rigid instead of moving the bicep first and letting the forearm and the blade follow offer, acting more like a wind whip effect with the forearm and even the blade bending with the motion of a whip, the blade obviously only slightly as giant thick heaping metal is more dense than bone and flesh, even with muscle, in addition to speeding up the last few frames to show how quickly guts swings the sword after the windup to the scene can REEEEEEEEALLY hit the FEEL department of the RAGE nd MURDEROUS *INTENT* guts has harbored over all these years in the eyes of the audience (instead of a speed similar to the wind up. if I had to guess, I'd say 3-4 exaggerated frames with a face stretch "feinting" behind the sword and eye contact and a bright flash of white when the swords collide, as well as much more initial movement of the blades after in the shot with the sparks to hide the actual procedural spark generation cause asking you to draw that shit by hand is crazy, even as a member of audience... also, the sparks are hot small chunks of metal. make them travel in the direction the impact is coming from. if only one sword is swinging, make them bounce off the blade like a mirrored path, only following the momentum of the blade being swung, aka make them bounce to the top left and separate the animation into frames instead of smooth movement where they suddenly lose their color because of the kinetic energy dissipating quickly from such a small mass [but that's not important, I digress.]) the other thing is more common in practice than anything. when you made Zodd swing the sword... you didn't make him swing his torso and right shoulder along the path with him. you made it more like a tennis ball racket... in wii sports... which i don't blame, you were very tired and new with this, hell you poured most of your heart and soul more into the line art than anything which really shows in a beautiful way. however, sadly, it makes the movement of the swing not match the intent and the power behind it.... which hurts the result a little... and, before i say this, please. don't take this as negative criticism. this animation, despite its very VERY slight flaws, is still incredibly beautiful. and I'm just proud to even still be alive to see it. this criticism... is only, *ONLY* meant as positive... if Zodd were to want to strike guts full on with the intention to kill in one blow with all speed and power... he would lunge forward on the sweeping strike... which would, in tern, make it much more likely that the snow from guts' split second evade not only be a lot more likely but it could also result in it bouncing off the edge, flinging it up further and requiring you to do less work for the lunge of the 3d model *for* the actual snow to hit his face and guts' retaliation after Zodd's flinch to be a lot more impactful and excitement building... for the cliff hanger. just some food for thought... marvelous work. 🫂

[@montoyagonzalesiii1051]

This is amazing. I loved the emotions shown when Guts swings the sword down. Really shows his feeling of hate and his drive to survive no matter the situation even if it means losing his humanity, though the scene lacks the feeling of how much force he'd use to swing a massive sword down. The weight alone would cause it to drop quick (especially if Guts is forcing it down). Maybe taking a frame or two out might help with that and/or using lines to help visualize speed. Regardless, this animation is WAY better than the CGI version. Disclaimer, I'm not an artist nor am i talking bad about this animation. This is just my own personal thoughts and ideas that I would have loved to see in the 2016 Berserk. Keep cooking!

Definitely the only critique that can be given here is the impact frames' length. It should be almost like an in-between, not really there for more than 2 or 3 frames. A sword cut, unless it's one to end the fight, should not take that long. I think the actual reason is not really about the movement or the dynamics, but the pacing.

So cool, ploughing forward to complete something in 3D using a process that you haven't done before is no easy feat. Most people will quit at the first few hurdles, inspiring to watch! I would be interested to see some modern anime compositing on this, similar to MAPPA's before and after compositing Attack on titan video. Maybe you could do a video on that using this animation? It would be interesting to see how you break it down, and whether it could also be accomplished in blender instead of after effects? Cheers!
