Had the absolute pleasure of Playing Koji, thank you to all who have watched and commented ❤, excited and energised for future projects 😀

This is one of those animations that everyone sees on youtube before realising the animator has moved on to make an absolutely legendary feature. I love everything about this, phenomenal work.
Good call, yeah.
Appreciate that, thank you!
What is the legendary feature?
What is it called?
Stop gatekeeping things lill bro, Tell us what's his future project

@@Hithereah😂😂😂
Was an absolute pleasure making the music and audio for this. Had so much fun with it.

@@BlackStorm236 im pretty sure im a grown man capable of thinking twice before i comment and i dont need likes i just want the creator to feel appreciated and i can and will swear if it means to hype someone up
Stronger Care and Happy🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😅
This is amazing. I'm a stop motion animator of 6+ years and I approve!
Amazing work. I like it. Pls put a blosser or tutorial video of this short film. Keep going❤️💯
cant wait for the YT algorithm to recommend this to millions of ppl in7 years (jokes aside, this is crazyyy, very well done)
The technique and fighting style is so creative, The way the samurai golem forced himself into the his 2 spears knee him was insane!
The ending is perfect. It really makes me want to see more of the adventure.
This was badass! Crisp animation, flawless moves and some exquisite super hero landings! Well done
BROOOOOOOO, the story on this one is intriguing asfffffff please continue
Here before this absolutely blows up
"This is an appreciation comment"
Edit : Animations aside JAMES SIMCOX has done the best to make this perfect
"Koji" stands out with fluid animation, intense pacing, and beautifully choreographed moves that capture the essence of an epic showdown.
I adore the smears used on the background at 2:27 and I really vibe with the music and the distorted guitars sound amazing. This was awesome!
I want this as a featured length movie, like yesterday man. I need it. It's too freaking cool.
Any major studio,, that would see this video as an absolute home run of a Resume,,, is blind.
This team is going places.
The dual spears is a fighting style that I never expected would look so badass 😭
Also the art style is absolutely amazing, the low poly low framerate combination gives it a completely unique vibe compared to a lot of other animations and art styles out there!!!
After 500 years, the Balance was restored...cuz YT's Algorithim finally did its job! Brilliant work!
You guys killed it in so many aspects with this, bravo!
This was fantastic man. Love your style and the movements were slick!
So good. So good. That sequence to get to the jewel by using the very thing thrown to kill him. Absolutely brilliant.
Really really sic.... absolutely loved this. Loved the move at the end where the guy grabbed the spear..... I loved the animation done in this. :)
Beautiful animation and this is my favourite art style along the story! Well done, Zean!
TH-cam recommend me this gem exactly on my birthday lets go
Me too, they must be hidden features
This is superb. The use of lighting, the motion smear, and the polygonal character design is pulled off really well. From one animator to another, i commend you.
Thank you Anakin, this is where the fun begins.
Superb work 👏, amazing 👌
Trop la classe, très beau court métrage,même si
je peut imaginer la quantité du travail effectué, je dit : bravo et vivement le prochain
The creative visuals to the sound design, its perfection! subbed!
Absolutely loved this! Cannot wait to see what you do next!

So much to be said and broken down, yoh, amazing. Really love the shallow depth of field in the fight sequence. That was immersive. Awesome work.
The instant kick to get into animation is strong with this one! Absolutely epic! Animations, art style, camera shots! Ooomph!
The camera work was wild 🔥🔥🔥

Plot twist: this is just the first enemy in Dark Souls, and the loot was a battery for his light bulb.

Damn loved every second of this masterpiece! The whole direction of the fight scene as well as the ending cut where we are left on wanting to know more about other stones/gems, pondering upon the main character's past and future. Amazing work, very inspiring!

This was super cool! It would be awesome to see him get the other stones too, 'cuz I thought the fighting in this one looked amazing!
EVERYTHING WAS ABOVE THE BEST
Freakin' awesome. Thank you for a work of art and imagination. A touch of Samurai Jack. Please find a pathway to continue this effort. It could be a big hit.
You know what? This should be turned into a videogame. It's awesome!
Yo this is epic. Good work on this! Everyone who was involved
Great STYLE... The "feeling" of the action is amazing and the choreography is very very good. The montage, music, direction are to be applauded.

Man This looks amazing.At first I thought a proper studio produced it.The quality,character design and the use of 2d elements is perfect.I am also a 3d enthusiast who wants to create something like this someday.If possible can you please create a simple breakdown.Thanks.
We would love to see more of this brillant animation 😊
Fine piece of work the way action performance is translated into animation enhanced by the sparse colour scheme and dramatic music is excellent. Gaun yersel Koji 👌
absolutely incredible, this guy has perfected his craft

Animation ... No words to describe...how beautiful it was...
Noice! I feel like many creators use animation on 2s, 3s, etc. as a trendy gimmick. But here it is spot on, works so well with the visual style.
these are the videos that motivate me to keep learning animation. I really hope I can get to this Leven some day
Amazing loved every bit of that masterpiece
