What? Oh, hello! Um, well I don't really know what to say... I guess I really just like animation. Yes, yes I do. Is your cat drilling?

I remember first watching this series about two years ago... I thought it was the most adorable thing on the planet. I've watched Step 1 and 2 often ever since... I had figured that step 2 wasn't the end... but did I ever expect a sequel? I can honestly say I didn't.
Thank you for continuing my favorite series on Newgrounds... thank you, so much.
Such creativity and a heartwarming story deserve to be at the top of the boards for quite a while.
I love this series...
I can hardly think right now.

The story was fairly simple, the symbolism was ok, I did watch it before I read the full author's comments, but I agree somewhat with the symbolism explained there.
To be perfectly honest the statement "for non-narrow thinking people" made me expect a little more than I got plot-wise, it wasn't particularly new, or long. In fact there was very little plot at all... You only relate to Fina as you would any other human, she doesn't seem particularly special, just someone down on her luck.
You used the obvious problems, husband cheating... poor relationship with mom... difficulty with religion... nothing was particularly unique. Because I was somewhat disappointed, I feel I can only give you a 7/10 for that portion of the animation.
However, the animation was superb, and the voice acting was fairly well done. So 9/10 there.
And yes, I see the comment that states: "People, you supposed to judge this on how it was meant to be, if it was meant to be the meaning of life, then watch it as that, so don't expect a lot from this" I can understand this, but when it says "for non-narrow minded people, you expect something a little extra, and I didn't see it.

That was by far the most amazing and creative animation I have seen in a long time. I... I'm simply blown away, the characters were unique and had personality beyond most of todays professional cartoons.
Fantastic!
I'll be sure to see each and every episode when it comes out, but don't worry I'll be patient. Take your time on each installment, we will all be looking forward to quality such as this.

I have to say I had my breath held through 90% of that game. Beastly hard, and I only beat it by the skin of my shorts. Didn't save Pico though...
Excellent job all around.

Have to say that this was a damn good game. I enjoyed the artwork and the style as well as the change in game play styles for each level. Although the second level was a tad easy, the third is great!
Frankly I was a bit worried when I read the reviews below, but when I started playing those worries went away. It's ridiculous really, you got a 4 because someone couldn't figure out how to beat a boss, a 3 because another person dislikes fighting games and failed to play through even the first level, and another 3 because someone thinks a simple shoot the cannon game is a brilliant piece of programming, while something with actual game play is "a waste of my time." Ha, well there is a reason this game has a 4.14 right now, and it's because the majority of Newgrounders know what is good.

This could be my favorite series on Newgrounds, this was HILARIOUS! I'm a little embarrassed at the number of references I got, but whatever, cause the humor is spot on.

Very enjoyable! Simple, yet well executed. Personally I quite enjoy the "shoot in different directions than you move" aspect of the game. While more difficult to get a hang of, it allows for more advanced movement/firing strategies, such as strafing or the good ol' retreat and shoot.
Simple yet well-used graphics and entertaining sound effects add to the overall enjoyment of the game.

The animation was slick and smooth, kudos there. Nothing much else to talk about in that department.
I found it interesting that you tried to add a bit of a storyline to the flash, but it seemed forced. Because of how short the flash was it may have been better to skimp of the "story" and have more action, I felt like they took care of the "final bass" pretty easy. Also the "Double Dragon" sounds like a finishing move, I would have been cool to see it featured.
Ah yes, Halo music, always gives me chills. Good stuff, so credit the music.

Uhh the Preloader... *drools*
Anyway fantastic flash keep it up all of you! Most collabs have some good some bad, this one was consistently funny. Oh yeah, and Sheik proving to Link she's a girls was AMAZING! Whoever came up with that is full of win.
Gah!
Wiimote girls...
The only criticism is maybe make your preloader less attractive, it took me like three minutes to decide to watch the damn flash. I'm kidding, could someone make a wallpaper of that? I'd download it...

Thank you for this... I think... yeah.
I'm gonna go lie down...
