    As a bit of a casual observer always behind the current scene, this channel's film studies are pretty great references for breaking down the sequences and has been pretty helpful for conceptualizing/drawing action gestures.
    This is a great breakdown, Gen. ^_^ Thanks for sharing this find.

    Still deeply saddened that the webcomic Lilith's Word ultimately died. So many do, but this one had a lot of potential.

    According to her latest tweet, the authoress is still working on the script(s) for the next chapter(s) and just recovered from mental burnout.

    It's been a long while since I really dug into an Abridged show, but to my experience, only DBZA really matches it (particularly as it reaches the third season). But DBZ wasn't as overtly bad as SAO, so even there, it's probably not a solid comparison.
