The animation is decent and the art style shows promise, especially given that it's created within Flash which can prove to be difficult for artists without as much talent.

My only real thing that kept bugging me about this is the fact that the dialogue was poorly done. I'm not talking about the voice recording quality or the voice acting (although I would recommend that in the future you recruit people in SBB via the Voice Actors club to cover some of these roles, because the same person doing all voices is tricky); instead, it's the way the dialogue was written. You had an interesting idea going on, but the dialogue, including the narration, sounded very stereotypical and comic-book-ish, which is a big turnoff to me personally (mostly when Hollywood does it, though). Even if the story is within a fantasy genre, dialogue should be written the way people would say it to each other.

To use an example, if Nanaki was attacked by a remnant of Sephiroth, you don't need 3 characters talking about it like that. Instead, improvise and show the attack happening, but leave the "remnant" idea to mystery for the characters to have to find out.

Two useful keys to screenwriting that I've found by analyzing the work of others is: 1) when it comes to dialogue, pretend you are the character speaking in that setting, and write what you would normally say if you were that kind of person in that kind of setting, and 2) when it comes to knowing what to and what not to show in your production, imagine yourself as a viewer going to the movies to see your film, and ask yourself all throughout your development: "If I was watching my own film as just an average viewer, what would -I- want to see? What would I want to see in this scene? What would I want to see overall?"

Just some food for thought. I usually don't review flashes because many flash artists can take an ounce of criticism, but the reason I felt compelled to review yours is because I can see a lot of potential that just needs some honing.

Good luck in your future endeavors.

I'm sure that was a lot less than 52,000,000 cards, but the ideas still the same.

Okay, anyway...

I found it kind of funny that something so simple could be entertaining. It just goes to show that not every flash has to be epic to be good.

I am a horror movie fan, mostly because I'm a suspense junkie. So when I say this, just know that it's coming from a fellow fan of the genre.

Your work is absolutely, without a doubt, excellent! I hardly ever write reviews for flash movies, so I reserve that for something I feel is really worth reviewing.

This piece has its own art style and form of delivery that makes it quite original. It's dark, lucid, and twisted to no end, but perfectly portrays its disturbing features.

Great work. You are truly a gifted producer.

You don't know how many electronic songs I've heard, and I would have to say, in my honest opinion as a fellow composer, that this piece is worthy to be called Trance.

The piece is cleverly composed with no clashing synths and all layes of the musical spectrum filled, and the mixing is professionally flawless. The piece itself has a feeling to it that makes one want to dance, which makes it perfect for its genre.

Keep up the awesome work.

You guys are skilled players (although the keeping-on-tempo thing is not as polished, but I'm nowhere near perfect myself when it comes to playing a live instrument in realtime), and the song has a catchiness to it that is required of music of this genre.

I will say, though, that I'm curious what studio recorded you, because the mixing on the drumset really lacks in output quality and sounds very raw; it was not compressed or EQed, and I would even guess that it wasn't even mic'd well, because it had a very tinny sound that sounded like it was just recorded and not really "mixed", which if this is a studio that charges money for sessions, they should at least do their recording engineering homework.

But, besides that point, the composition of the piece is very standard for a rock band, and would fit in easily with other bands of the like.

Keep up the good work.

I really like what you guys had going here.

The mixing's a little rough, in that the guitars aren't as defined as they could be, and the drums definitely need compression so they cut through the mix, and you need a bass guitar line to define a foundation for the guitar chords to play on, so as to create a stronger drive.

Aside from the mixing aspects of the piece, the composition of it was quite good. I don't primarily listen to this style of rock, but I can't deny that I absolutely really like it, and I would honestly be willing to bet that you sound phenomenal live.

Keep up the good work, because good work such as this should not go to waste.
