【Touhou Fanimation】 Drop the KoAkuma
What's better than a Koakuma? How about a devilishly mischievous one that loves to dance?!
(Also: is it can be new meme time? ⓛ⩊ⓛ)
(quick edit: by request a few Koa dance gif's have been posted here: https://plus.google.com/104032434106102166363/posts/ipBpMGJGwvx)
Pardons the long wait, everyone. It's been three quarters of a year since my last video.
I was called back to a previous video game project to update and create some new graphics for it, since it was moving to a bigger gaming platform than its original format, so I was occupied for a few months there.
I had already done a lot of this, including two other animations before the whole game graphics thing, but when I finally finished those graphics, I came back and realized how much time I had lost on my own stuff, while it was going so well and fell back into full-on depre-mode for a while, losing even more time...
Again, I'm still practicing with TVPaint Animation and I have learned SO much since the Momiji test... which is nearly at 50k views (WTH, people?! lol).
This one here is still a bit sloppy, as many parts were rushed... like Patchouli, despite being large and in the foreground.
I had the idea for this animation for a while, but I wondered what music to use. I figured something like a remix of EoSD Stage 4 - Voile, the Magic Library, since that's where you will find the "star" of this video. But then I saw this:

Using a similar idea that I was going for, with a very cool, upbeat DDR song so I had to give it a whirl with that! Hope you all like it and have a good laugh! I know I had great fun making it! ⓛ⩊ⓛノ
(SPOILER) I'm actually doing one more, similar to this, along with a bonus animation that I already finished back in April, so look forward to next time! (It won't be as long a wait, I promise!)
