Alita De Shi Lian

My first ever review on a short film guys. Story: 4/10 The plot is lacking originality but it is not that bad compared to other unoriginal anime/donghua. It is about a girl named Alita who is half dragon and half human. Dragons have been terrorizing humans so humans look down on her and want to hunt her down. It’s five minutes though so the plot is kind of rushed and unclear at times. Animation: 7/10 For a short film, the animation and art style are both simple and nice. And well, this entire short film is just an animation test. Not bad for someone who is newto animating. Characters: 5/10 There is pretty much only one character the film focuses on, Alita as a matter of course who is a typical valorous and smug independent female protagonist. She is half dragon but human at heart and she will defend herself and other people around her. Sound: 5/10 There is really no soundtrack but the sound effects are good and that is it. In the end, it is just an animation test with decent animation and a fine story. It isn’t awful and it has potential but overall it is un memorable and unoriginal. Not as bad as some other short films on here though.
