[Girlchan in Paradise Ep3]

Not bad.

The first Girlchan was an exceptionally funny, quirky parody of all things Anime, and I think that's why I loved it. This just seems like thoughtless, random not-so-funny humor piled on top of nothing of substance. I feel like the viewers, the audience who have come to love your work are being taken somewhat advantage of, now that they'll just sit back and watch anything you create. I understand that some of the low-quality things are stylistic choices, but it just comes off sometimes as not really having any desire to put forth the kind of effort I know you can.

A lot of work went into this. I think it could be better directed. That said, thanks for doing all you do.

Egoraptor responds:

I don't think it's strayed far from its roots at all. Perhaps it's developed its own precedents and now I can play off of those for comedy instead of just anime, but I think that's a strength, not a weakness. The characters, the kinds of things they'd say, and how they'd react are getting more and more fleshed out, and with that I can twist the expectation of viewers and unleash some funny comedy. It's true it's not JUST an anime parody anymore, but I don't think that its development in any way cheapens the humor.

Fantastic and Moving

This is my favorite piece of work on this site. I can totally relate, as I'm sure most of us who've watched it can. This is really an amazing song and an amazing way of conveying it and translating it into a story. I really admire this work, and I hope more inspiring things come from you. Consider me a fan. And God Speed to you too. Good to see that some still consider their talents given to them from Someone higher rather than simply things to abuse.

Five-Iron responds:

I know a billion people who say they believe in God, but they only do because they say it doesn't actually matter to them, they just believe in God because it won't hurt if they do.

Actually believing in God is something more. It's having faith in him. Placing faith into somebody, giving all your dreams and ambitions into another being, is the greatest form of love that can't be expressed.
