Best episode of the Hobo Show yet.
Massive improvement in the visuals. The improvements in Hobo's model and animation are awesome to see.
Comedy bits were good as usual with this series.
Finally, I think there's been a great improvement in the story driven aspects of the show. In the first 3 episodes, the story often felt directionless and felt like something tacked on to give a deep explanation to what was ultimately a funny skit show. This episode feels a lot more structured and it actually feels like there's a plan for where the series is heading.
I'm glad to see this series is back and better than ever.

[ISSBROKIE x SSJ DAKI - LORD KNOWS! (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)]

Ain't no way you just pull up, drop this fire shit, and be like "I got bored and animated this teehee :3c" lol
Fun amv, fight had some excellent moments and the lil pieces of dialogue from everyone was great. Definitely see improvement since the UFO amv.
The main piece of criticism I got comes from the flashing effect in the video. The effect is on top of everything, which means that there's frames where everything gets darkened down and it's harder to see the actual drawings. It gets especially bad at 1:18-1:25 since there's a bunch of fast movement there.
Don't get me wrong, I love me some flashing lights, they can really add a lot of energy to an animation, but they should never take clarity/focus away from the drawings.

THANKS FOR ACTUALLY GIVING VALID CRITICISM!!! ill take ur words into consideration!! >:3

[IF SONIC GAMES WERE ACTUALLY GOOD]

I made this Sonic oc, his name is Saul Goodman. In my fanfic he's a lawyer and he says "Saul Goodman" then braps in Sonic's face

You should at least put a warning for the flashing lights in the title, though I'm gonna be honest I don't really see the point in having those flashings lights in the first place. It's super out of place since the music is so muffled and there's no animation happening. Nothing is matching the energy of the flashing lights. The flashing lights just acts as an obnoxious jolt of energy.

CloGui responds:

Oh sorry, I hadn't thought of that, I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thanks for the warning.

[FNAF 4 minigame (rare alternate sequence??)]

sublime, I laughed my ass off. Also gotta say you captured the look of the fnaf 4 minigames really well.

[Real Life]

What a ride.
Fuck, I have so much I wanna say but I have no idea how to write it in a way so that it doesn't end up being extremely long (EVEN LONGER THAN THE HUGE BLOCKS OF TEXT I USUALLY WRITE).
The moment at 5:50 is so sweet. I'm not a very religious person but reading it just clicked with me so well. It fits the character of Jesus so well (at least based on the bits and pieces I've read in the Bible), and it's comforting to think there's some person out there performing miracles and making the world better without us even realizing. A thankless hero who's there for us no matter what, again it just clicked with me so well.
1:55 the dude slowly floating down then being interrupted by a hard cut of the dude falling face first was hilarious. Type of humor I always enjoyed with this series.

While overall I enjoyed the episode, I think it's held back by a few things. Most notably the use of meme and goofy sound effects stuck out like a sore thumb. Tonally, those sfx just don't fit in well.
Also I know it's probably too late now but I really wished there was more buildup to a finale. When I was watching this, I was reading it more as a penultimate episode and became slightly disappointed when I found out that this really was the end. The end really felt like it just came and went so fast. Maybe I was anticipating more of a struggle or a test? I guess it's just not in the nature of the show to do that.

On a final note, I think at some point I wanna write up a bigger review on the series as a whole and in it I'll talk more about this finale's role in enforcing some of things I love so much about this series. I'll need a bit of time before I can do that though, to process everything (or maybe I'll get busy with something else and the project will fall into the back crevasses of my brain, hopefully not). This series really was a joy to experience, I'm so glad that I found it. All the characters, moments, and ideas were delightful, and seeing you improve in your craft was truly inspirational. I thank you for taking the time to create this and allowing us a peek into this beautiful afterlife.

I'm happy to know someone has so much to say about it :)

[ENA - Power of Potluck]

I really like the late 90s 3d computer game graphics used here, always scratches a nice itch for me. Great characters and settings as usual, always the best part of watching a new ENA release.

Is it just me but is the writing feeling more and more like it's trying to say something? I can't really put my finger on a specific message since it's still cryptic but this release more than any episode before it feels like it's leading us to a point. Something surrounding the theme of "fun" (obviously). Either way I'm still enjoying ENA a lot, can't wait for whatever comes next.
