hmm
not my favorite in the series, seemed kind of rushed, pace wise. it is still a very good flash, though inconsistent in the quality. Any animation of the boat was very generic, and the sounds could use a bit more variety. i understand using the same growl for noth when he fights because it is the " theme sound" at the beginning of every flash in this series.
the fighting looks great, but there are a lot of parts with just still shots, especially with the princess. additionally, even though there was a fight scene and the princess became magical, not a whole lot actually happened. i felt disappointed at the end of this particular flash.
ill still give you an 8 because you can animate better than 95 percent of artists out there and the story its self has always kept me wanting to see the next flash, so i guess in that way, the "cliff hanger" ending was kind of good.
in short, anti-climactic, needs more variety in sounds, consistency in drawings needs improvement. just remember the little things count too. if the boats and other things look awkward, it makes the feel of the flash less genuine and takes the observer out of the mood and setting of the flash. im looking forward to your next installment, and good luck.
