Known Issues: The levels are a little off, but I've gotten the necessary things that I need in order to limit or stop that, so that should be good. There are a few clicks and things, as well, that I missed.

Thanks in advance for the critique, and a HUGE thank you to my cast...they're awesome, in my humble opinion. Enjoy it! :D

YAY! A lot of us have been desperately waiting for this and I gotta say, I'm glad I was so patient!

There are some awkward pauses between speaking and sometimes it almost seemed like we switched to a new scene because it took so long for the next person to speak. I won't mention the levels since you know that already. :3 However, even though the music was too loud with Soul Calibur, this time the music was too soft and I only heard about one song throughout the entire thing. XDXD

Ok, now onto the good! For your first production, this turned out VERY well. Very good use of SFX and overall mixing.

As for the voices, well, I really didn't have any complaints. Everyone fit their roles perfectly. I thought everyone did a superb job. A very well put together cast and I can't wait for episode 2!

Yeah...I remember overdoing the music on SC. This time, I tried to make sure it was lower and I overdid that. I'll get it in episode two.

The pauses...yeah, I wasn't sure how to switch between the present/past (which usually signaled the new scenes). I do wish those pauses would have been fewer and the presentation was smoother that way. Chalk it up to a rookie mistake. I am glad I'm starting to get this mixing thing, though, so thanks! :D

I would suggest having music during the dream scene (and if there was...I couldn't hear it o.O ) and then having it abruptly stop when Dym wakes up. You know, something like that. Music changes can always help with transitions to new scenes. Or reeeeally long pauses.

Haha...there was music in the dream scenes. I'll remember to turn that up so it's actually audible. Heh.

I do have one gripe with the production. Dymatrex as Hikage sounded depressed and bored out of his mind throughout. There is little more boring that listening to somebody be bored. I would think that somebody who has taken an oath to protect would not find his existence such a drag.

As an aside, am I the only one who was waiting for Hikage to put on a cape and cowl...?
