[Toytopia: Episode 1!]

Very clean animation and presentation. By the end of it, I actually found it charming. With the length of the episode I felt that there were pacing issues which ended up being reflected in the vague nature of each characters emotions. Like, the 'antagonists' surprise at the 'protagonists' still being in the area and subsequently joining the group. It didn't feel expressed as well as the hidden agenda that the 'antagonist' let leak out during the task of rescuing her, which I really enjoyed. You were able to really turn my perception around by the end of it and I feel that this will do well especially for younger audiences. I really want to see how you all progress and learn to work moving forward!

Thanks heaps for your feedback! It was difficult to try and fit everything into this first episode so I definitely see how there are areas that are lacking. With the feedback I have received I have gone back and reworked the episode 2 script to try and get more out of the characters and their relationships, so I hope that it will show once that episode is eventually out.
