well
Very nice action sequence, you've done your job well, as far as a college study of motion goes. But that's about it. I gave you an 8 because you've acieved exactly what you have intended.
However, the flash as a whole was... rather disappointing. It's like a very very rough draft of Genryu's Blade (newgrounds classic), without resorting to calling it a rip-off. The style is inconsistent and the story is uninteresting. As a complete flash this actually deserves only a 5 or 6... but since a good style and storyline was obviously not your goal, your marks shouldn't be lowered because of it ;) Keep up! You are a very promising animator!
