This is what more western animation needs to look like!
Fantastic work. There's a really awesome sense of motion here, and not a lot of nakamura-esque "make it as smooth as possible" shenanigans. Beautiful work.
Shame about Nick's treatment of the show.

0:13 - 0:30

0:54 - 1:08

1:20 - 1:25
Seems like Tom Barkel's last scene extends from 1:08 -1:18 then continues from 1:22 - 1:24
The choreo here is insane and I love it. More storyboards should go with these completely idiotic and crazy movements, its great! Reminds me a lot of Monty Oum and Shane Newville in a way. Every character segment escalates and when it reaches its peak moment, it passes on to the next one, leaving the sense of tension and epicness ever present.

I don´t watch this show, I just love this scene.

I do love the animation in this series and it has had some of the best choreography I've seen in recent memory for western animation. I do disagree that more western animation should look like this. I'd love to see more disney or warner bros style animation from studios

Ah okay, thanks for clearly that up for me. I think I either just made a typo or I was just a bit confused since on what cuts he did exactly at the time since the length of the twitter video is different than the one here. Anyway I just edited my comment so the timestamps are correct now.
japanese "animators" btfo
HOW DO THEY ANIMATE SO AMAZINGLY ON SUCH A SMALL BUDGET?!?!?!?!?! Most other shows outsourced to South Korea have the same motion!! THIS IS JUST MINDBLOWING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We need more western animation like this
I would love to see more fights like this but I guess episodes with complex storyboards take a lot of time and skill on this level is not very common too.
Adding Tomasz Pilarski to the list. 0:46 (blocking April's bat) to 0:48 (Shredder's sword arm thing):
