@@; Okay, headache subsiding just enough for me to lay it straight.
Somehow I feel Brawl Taunts 3 would've been more enjoyable if you, Rina-chan, were more mean and kicked the crap out of the animators that couldn't rise to the occasion, so to speak. I always, always, always hate that feeling where you voiced for something you'd be embarrassed about since you don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, but that's the vibe I'm getting here since I enjoyed the first two Brawl Taunts and I've been waiting for this for the longest while. You're m'buddy and I'm sure you'd appreciate an honest say on what I think could've made things better.
I will say that the mixing and voice acting was pretty good though. The part after the credits definitely made me chuckle~
The first part in Brawl Funnies Part 1 was my favorite. My jaw dropped at how "Whoa" it was, especially at the part with Captain Falcon chillin' with Peach and Zelda. I couldn't really bring myself to... "Appreciate" the rest though. Sure, there were a couple "The dude's got a point" moments, but speaking of beating dead horses... I just couldn't stand it. Blame the headache, me being too nice and conservative, or whatever. I felt like throwing up.

I'm a little mixed on this myself. Voice wise, everyone did a great job, so like every other Brawl Taunts, the voice acting is top notch. Kudos to the VA's.
This definitely had it's moments. I laughed when Olimar responded to Ike's "friends," taunt. I laughed even more at how perfect Shockdingo was for the character in that very moment. To me, that was seriously my favorite moment. Because it works on so many damn levels that it's ridiculous.
Wario's laughing than snapping at how he has to pay for those bikes people keep breaking made me chuckle.
The piss on the idiotic fanboys who send fan mail was both true and laughable and enjoyable.
Hearing Kirbopher scream NO GOD NO MORE...and kill himself, was definitely my highlight. Because originally I expected it to sort of end there as your guys' way of saying, "STOP FUCKING DEMANDING MOAR BRAWL TAUNTZ!!" Then the gates of hell were opened, hehe.
My biggest gripe isn't that this is beating a horse to death, because for starters, I don't feel that's the case at all. It's a trilogy, so I just see this as closure. Beating a horse to death, I have seen, and I turn that off immediately, this wasn't the case at all, anyone could at least appreciate this one for the moments it had. The issue with me is just that itself.
It felt that the strongest thing this flash had were its' moments in themselves. Most material didn't really catch me off guard or make me laugh much. Several jokes felt like they took way too long to get to the punchline, to where by the time the actual joke came out from the extended set up, I stopped caring about the joke itself. Animation wise it was sound. Not as sound as the previous Brawls, but I'm not really basing my opinions of this flash on comparison to its' predecessors.
Regardless of how long it's been since Brawl came out, I felt this could have been much stronger if it had been given a few extra coats of paint. By that, I mean if the jokes used were a bit more polished and to the point. Set ups fine and good, but give a joke excess set up, and it loses its' substance is my opinion.
But still, as a flash it's very sound, and I think no matter the opinion, people for the most part will still appreciate it and enjoy it for what it is and that you all put in a lot of work into making this flash, for that I say nice work.
EDIT: There's no denying how great Olimar was in this flash at all.

OK now that I have gotten myself together from all the madness. I can now give you my feedback.
Alright first off, nice work Rina-chan. This was really good. The opening scene of the flash and the ending quite literally made me drop. And I got quite a few good chuckles in between it all.
The voice acting throughout the entire video was excellent. I could hear everything nice a clearly and each character was given the right kind of voice for whatever joke was trying to be portrayed.
OK now for the things that made me cringe a bit.
There were indeed some parts of the video that didn't give me much of a laugh. I agree with BigK in saying that some jokes did feel like they took too long to get to the punchline. Those jokes made me lose interest until it actually did make it too the punchline. The other problem I would say was that I just could see some of the jokes coming.
An example would be about the 3 Starfox characters having Landmasters. I'm pretty sure with how long brawl has been out, most people could deal with it. However props for having Falco's Landmaster actually being an Arwing.
Overall this is great. This is a video that I can watch quite a few times over.
Nothing to say really, I do admit my lack of commitment and my lack of experience killed most of my part, though I still worked hard on it and spent a few all nighters finishing it up. I'm glad people are appreciating it for its content as a whole. Good job to all the cast, Rina-chan for the mixing, Kirb, and the other animators as well.
I'm very thankful for the opportunity and I think I've learned a lot from this collab =3.

I'm sorry, I couldn't watch all of it, it was just a case of where the acting couldn't save the script (voice acting was all ok so far)...if there was one. It felt that the whole writing just recycled the random humor from the previous two brawl taunts. Don't get me wrong, I liked the previous two, but I felt I was watching the same old stuff, and I thought it just wasn't worth my time just to continue seeing it...
Or maybe i'm making this honest opinion of mine, because I see too many voice acting things on the site relating to Brawl, and it gets to the point of myself saying "OK SSB, ENOUGH IS F***ING ENOUGH!!!" but I wouldn't go as far as what Kirbophor's animated counterpart did and lose my mind.
Speaking of which, like BigK said, I enjoyed the segment between Kirbophor and Rina, as at least they do something fresh in their scenes as their animated counterparts.
I might be being too cruel though, since I switched off the video in the middle of watching it, and I might of judged it too harshly. I'll be sure to make an effort to watch all of it...and then try and make a fair critique.

Your animation looked the best of everyone's, IMO.
