I really like how the story feels more thought out. The chaos emerald actually gives Yoshi powers just like all the other characters that have obtained one in the last series; Mario gets hostile towards Sonic when he finds Yoshi injured, he’s still a stranger to them and barely knows him after all.

Mario's been through the 'strangers from far away claim to be heroes but then turn out to actually be villains' thing too many times at this point. Of course he's still a hero so he'll take anyone asking for help at their word, but at that point he was probably pretty suspicious of Sonic for leaving out the detail that a homicidal robot is also looking for the exact same things they are. They could have been more careful and kept to a buddy system

Something I've always appreciated about this series ever since it debuted is that, under all the crazy DBZ style fights, the pop culture references and the fanservice-y premise of a mario/sonic crossover, the tone and characters are really appropriate for the Mario world. A lot of the humorous, action-packed and dramatic moments feel like something that really could be in an official nintendo product, albeit one not afraid to do deep lore pulls. That's what always set it apart from the other mario/sonic stuff on newgrounds, which was full of blood, swearing and out of character stuff. Watching this reminds me of the old mario world comics I read as a kid, or the funny cinematics in the gamecube mario sports titles, or some of the wackier bits of the paper mario games.

@GreatFox42 Жыл бұрын
At the same time, the tone is suited for Sonic as well, with some of the darker elements (particularly in the backstories) and really high stakes. Likewise Sonic and Shadow are also properly in character. SMBZ is/was a series that properly respected both franchises and made the events feel like an official product from both companies. That consistency of character and world(s) is something that a lot of the fan sequels and projects missed the mark on, such as making Mario and Luigi talk as opposed to the gibberish they speak here and in the M&L games. It was made both for and by a fan who had a genuine love and respect for both franchises, plus also DBZ. While the fights are the finest sprite battles ever made (or fights ever; not gonna lie I think SMBZ surpasses DBZ in fight choreography), there's always been more to the series than just the raw action. As another youtuber put it, "It's a story about friendship, damnit!"

Other than a few examples like the song choice in the Mario vs Bowser fight in the 2nd episode or the original Yoshi vs Mecha Sonic, I think this is exactly what drew me into SMBZ back then, even if I was only subconsciously aware of this. A lot of older flash animations stemmed from a counter-cultural desire to see darker elements in the worlds they were familiar with. Sonic and his tonally inconsistent series being the perfect host of many insanely edgy, yet charmingly entertaining flash animations for years. The divide between Mario and Sonic's fans has always been down to your preference for either consistently high-quality, yet safely branded games (Mario) or the messy and risky, yet creatively diverse ones (Sonic). SMBZ's priority at appealing to both these comforts as well as the over-the-top DBZ, sprite bash flashes evens out a lot of the strengths and weaknesses of these genres into something surprisingly accessible for traditional fans and the abridged fan-bases alike. Mecha Sonic/Metallix is such a perfect device for this tonal balance. He's far too extreme to be a villain in the Mario series and too typical for Sonic's usual end-of-the-world conflicts but having him be an invader within the Mario World's whimsical, slapstick tone brings a completely different weight that neither series could accomplish on their own. "Yoshi gets beaten and suffocated to near death by Metallix" or "Metallix achieves his super form and massacres the Axem Rangers" are ridiculous sentences and should normally fall into the tonally weightless trappings of other DBZ mockup fan animations. But it's only because the Mario World's setting and characters are expressed under the limitations of the innocuous gag-humor of Mario's brand, that the contrast feels tastefully out-of-place. It's why those earlier two sentences aren't exactly accurate to what's going in SMBZ but rather "what if a flash animation-era Sonic supervillain entered the Mario World and how would these characters handle this situation?" The animation quality is obviously a huge factor in why the series is so popular, but I think this combined with the dedication to this tonal consistency is what makes the series age better in memory and why both this and the original series are so rewatchable even amongst several Mario vs Sonic action crossovers that stemmed from it.

I agree, most villains nowadays usually 1 shot the main characters in the early stages which makes people think they are op but doesnt give an accurate representation of the vilians strength. What Mark did here was allow us to see how strong an empowered main character was, only to have the tables turned and see that empowered character lose. This gives us a ballpark guess at how strong the villian is. THIS was the correct way to represent and introduce a villain's strength. A bad example (and sorry if i offend anyone!) would be RWBY's Adam. He One shot Yang n volume 3, only for the audience to be confused on why adam was "soo much weaker" in volume 6. unlike rwby though, THIS was power scaling done right. There is no confusion here.

@springbonnie52499 ай бұрын
The truth is that, comparing it with the original episode, I would say that there are things in that reboot that fascinated me quite a bit. Yoshi's fight against mecha sonic/metallix was brutal and intense. I mean, it already was in the original, but here? It's quite noticeable that you made it more epic. You improved it. Not only did you recreate the scene and make it longer than the original, but you put details into it that, while it may not be much, are a huge improvement. Also, I felt that Yoshi put up a lot of fight, and although it was thanks to the chaos emerald that he can resist a little, it shows that you got more out of him… I also liked that you gave Bowser more screen time, unlike the original series. I mean, it may not have been that necessary because, well, at the end of the day, mecha sonic is and remains the villain to beat, but still, it's good to know that Bowser will have a better participation, or at least, that's what you left me understand. The same with Eggman, who in the original series did not appear until episode 7, as a mystery, but even so, I am surprised that you wanted to include him from the second chapter. We'll see what you have in mind. With the Wario brothers, well, you also gave them more screen time, and that is appreciated. Also, I love the effect of the curtains as if this were an anime. Nice detail. Anyway, the truth is that the reboot promises a lot. I can't wait to see chapter 3 and see the recreation of the destruction of sonic's world. Mark, don't put pressure on yourself. I know you're going through a tough time and fighting your...inner demons, so to speak. I know you can get out of this, but take as long as you want. Also, with the amount of details in the animation, all the more reason to give yourself some time. Take as long as you have to. I'll be waiting here.

You can easily see the younger version of yourself in your old writing/character dialogue, but it's a take on Dragon Ball Z, which in and of itself isn't known for *it's* best writing, but even still, leagues above where you used to be and where you used to be was a pretty high bar to begin with!

I love the soundtrack choices in the reboot so far. Trespasser when Sonic and Shadow arrive, can you get hidden meaning better than that? The "commercial break" interludes pieces of victory music from Smash? The sound design is eons of an improvement, not to mention how much better characterization is, the improvements to dialogue, visual fidelity. SMBZ already bordered on its own classification of "masterpiece" but this falls squarely into magnum opus territory. Every aspect of this series nails exactly what it intends to. The action is packed and dense. The pacing is a metronome in comparison to the old series, not to mention the improvements to plot, the comedic timing is still bullseye accurate. I struggle to find any flaws with this production even when pausing every 15 seconds to stare. The choreography is beyond absurd. It stands toe to toe with some of the best anime in the industry. So many creative and interesting things that make perfect sense in a high-octane "Z" style combat environment. The car chase scene was not only technically impressive, but because of the Diddy Kong Boss Race theme, I was hyped and laughing the whole goddamn time. I will always love this series. It was integral to my understanding and further appreciation of animation and art as a whole. And I am, without a doubt, in awe of this reboot.

The difference in quality between this and the second episode of the old series is phenomenal. The humor and characterisation is still completely on point. I'm loving the changes, too: Luigi being a much more useful character, Wario and Waluigi making a nuisance of themselves right off the bat rather than lingering in the shadows, and Yoshi tapping into the emerald and putting up a hell of a fight instead of getting curbstomped like in the original. Really interested by Eggman being a known presence from the very beginning rather than only appearing later on, that'll definitely drive the story in different directions. It also seems like Metallix thinks the Chaos Emeralds are talking to him (or something in them actually is?), which makes his motivations potentially a lot more interesting than pure powerlust and vengeance. Really looking forward to episode 3, if it ever comes. I'd absolutely love to see Mecha Sonic/Metallix vs Bowser, as we didn't get all that much Bowser in the old series but in this one Metal Bowser seems pretty much invincible.

Yoshi actually putting up a fight this time was also a highlight. That Metallix character is something else. I was actually legit terrified of him because of his actions and those close ups made him even more chilling than he already was. I can't even remember if the original was anywhere near this level of sadistic compared to this one. I bet he's gonna be even more scary later on...

The fact that Mario, Luigi and Yoshi genuinely give a damn about each other in the reboot is a massive improvement over the original.
@alexsegers10323 жыл бұрын
You can really tell Luigi’s been improved for the reboot simply from the fact that he can fly properly with the Cape Feather, instead of flapping his arms like he did in the original. Plus, I feel like OG Luigi would’ve been too scarred to chase down Wario and Waluigi like he did here

Since Mark Haynes confirmed that episode 3 will focus on Sonics backstory, I really wonder how brutal Tails death is without the blood. Although, I could probably see Axem Reds death being more brutal by Metallix taking his ax, stabbing him with it, and then blasting him with his chest laser.

@@Metalkingboo: And it also explains how despite Metallix being op in the first series, Yoshi somehow survives. It’s not a knock on the old series, but a general quality of life and gave Mark more freedom to experiment with Yoshi’s moveset without fundamentally changing Yoshi’s fighting style (beyond letting Yoshi fly at least) or insinuating Yoshi knew what was going on. It looked like Yoshi was acting on instinct and rolling with whatever punches he could deal and there was consequence as we could see Yoshi panting at multiple points during the fight before he lost.

My brother is a big Yoshi fan and we were shouting and screaming at the top of our lungs when Yoshi got the emerald power up, hoping against hope our favorite little green dinosaur was gonna change fate and prevent his brutal beatdown we were all too afraid would happen. This episode not only made us feel like kids discovering this series for the first time, it was made even better by the enhanced production value and overall quality in general. You've truly made something that was already great, just a hundred times better. Once again, for however long this remake keeps its momentum, thank you for your great work. It truly is exceptional.

Yoshi is the series' Piccolo. He isn't the strongest of the 5 heroes but fights with smart tactics and clever use of his special abilities. He also had no idea how to use the emerald here whereas Metallix is basically built for them. After the initial few punches, once he'd lost the element of surprise, he had to get creative to even land a hit, and was basically inventing tactics on the fly to take advantage of flight and his bomb eggs being nukes. I like fights where you can see a clear difference in skill as well as power too, as well as fights which show you the character of the fighters, and this fight nailed it. Yoshi is plucky, cunning and brave but Metallix is brutal and efficient.
