This is animated really well. I like combat scenes of course but also the plot is good and it's clear you have kept the characters in character which is greatly appreciated, their interactions with each other is also very well handled.

Here we go, the completed Episode 7 from my 2014 remastering project for my old series.
Enjoy the animation. Hope you like it!
This animation isn't completely new and it doesn't properly represent what my current and future content will look like. See further down for details.
Also the logo totally doesn't change midway through the animation. You're imagining things. *clown emoji*
Oh and I apologise if the audio's a bit jank. Also it may be loud, so don't forget to turn your volume down.
The series is getting a full reboot after this one so it'll be a while before Ep. 8 comes out.

This is gonna be pretty long so I've placed it at the bottom of the description.
So, originally I started a remaster for 'SHMX 7' back in 2016 but I never finished. I was struggling with ideas for how to continue and conclude the animation, so I paused the project. Then I got really busy with school so I hadn't animated for quite some time, and by the time I'd uploaded again, my pacing for action had gotten a lot better so I decided to restart 'SHMX7 Remastered' from scratch.
I started the new version in early-2017 and I finished the first scene pretty quickly. But, I ended up making progress on scene 2 on-and-off, and the animation itself improved as I did, until I finished it in early-2020-ish. I finished scene 3 not too long after I finished scene 2 — but by that time, since I'd improved, scenes 2 & 3 now looked quite different from scene 1. So I restarted JUST scene 1 because I was dissatisfied.
(Note: Scene 1 ends after the Tails hologram thing, scene 2 ends when the last fight ends.)
Numerous bouts of creator's block, delays, hiatuses and 5-years-and-some-change later and here we are. With something that's basically a hodge-podge of 2019, 2022 and 2023 content, moderately-wonky sound-design and very-outdated textboxes. It's a bit of a mess. I blame the economy.
It's been a long ride, and I'm not 100% happy with everything in this anim, it's a heavily-delayed piece so it doesn't look like what I can do now. But I'm glad it's finally out and not just on my hard-drive.
Thank you for reading this far, if you have. Now go enjoy the animation. :D
