What's your favorite animation in Skullgirls?

[DARKNESSxEAGLE]

Skullgirls is undoubtedly the most well animated game I've ever played, slowing animations down in training mode and just seeing all the little details that you don't usually notice when trying to avoid resets of look for an opening is incredibly entertaining, especially when you find an animation that really stands out.

My favorite animation in Skullgirls is Squigly's s.LK, but what's yours?

Spoiler

s.LK

Very difficult to say. The animation is overall of such consistent good quality and rife with details that it makes it very hard to single ONE animation. It's certainly one of the reasons why I'm so fond of the game, as it was also one of the reasons that drew me to Darkstalkers, which, in turn, got me hooked on fighting games. Skullgirls is the Darkstalkers Capcom never gave us!

But I think it's Excellabella. I love doing that move probably far more than any other.
Though if anyone saw me playing, they'd definitely say my favorite animation is Parasoul's j.HP. >_>

 

[WaterMystic277]

Can I say It's Squig's Lv 3?

I cannot stop laughing at fetus-baby Leviathan and the fact he's buffer then Samson.

 

[Stuff]

Ms. Fortune's win animation "I win I win IwinIwin I win" That's all I ever strive for.

 

[DukeMagus]

Squifly c.lp

 

[Broseidon Rex]

Grab Bag, easily.

 

[Denizen]

Same here, although there are some other contenders. First is Grab Bag of course, there's just so much going on in that move in a decent amount of time. It's not surprising that Cerebella has the most frames out of any character. 2nd is Filia's Fenrir Drive, I love wolves and it's just really cool. 3rd is Double's introduction, I audibly said WOAH when I first saw her transform.

 

[DARKNESSxEAGLE]

Squifly c.lp

 

[Stuff]

Squigly is an enabler.

 

[DARKNESSxEAGLE]

Woah I didn't even notice the face on Peacock's smoke cloud until I dragged the image at a lucky time.

 

[Lunerstep]

Honestly off the top of my head my favs are her pre fight pose and her new victory pose I just really like her animations fluid feeling going into or from them ^^

Or I suppose to make things easier pretty much any of Filia's animations are my favs X3

 

[Immaevilspacewhale]

Well theres this

But theres also this

And this

And that

And also this

WHO COULD FORGET THIS

Out of favorites, I really like Kanchou, and Val's time out pose. Dat MK3 reference

 

[Zombies8MyLeg]

All the characters have cool animations(especially Peacock), but my favorite has to be Squigly's snapback. I guess you could say that snapback is her best ASSet.

I'll be here all week ladies and gentlemen..

Spoiler: also a bit surprised this hasn't been posted yet :3

 

[Broseidon Rex]

Crap, I forgot about this one. Very close second since I use this image online when I deliver bad jokes.

 

[Viro Veteruscy]

Dear god... *looks at all the various animations and artwork saved* ...I ...I can't decide... hell half of the time I'm playing the game I'm busy looking at the animations and Background Art to even play... *dumps cold water on self* -w-

 

[Rikaku]

That is hard to say cause there's a lot of animations that's so smooth and neat.
But what pops in my mind the most though is Squigly's forward walk animation.

 

[TheRealMrBean]

I'm surprised that no one mentioned this

 

[Number 13]

In New Meridian, hair has body be headbands!

 

[Avil]

I think about Squigly grabbed by Bella's anti-air slapgrab.

 

[Vladislav_Paizis]

I like the timeout animations for Cerebella and Ms. Fortune, Fortune's Head-on s.MP slowed down, Fortune's s.LK, Squigly's frown after whiffing Daisy Pusher Super and Filia's winpose where Samson stands up and Filia is blowing in the wind like Ryu's headband in ST.

 

[WaterMystic277]

I think about Squigly grabbed by Bella's anti-air slapgrab.

If you're hoping for a panty shot, nah that shit ain't happening.

 

[Vladislav_Paizis]

Speaking of which, I'm not sure if it's intentional that Cerebella slaps Valentine's and Parasoul's breasts during the Anti-Air grab. That looks awkwardly hilarious and painful.

[ashxu]

c.HK

Kanchou

and Valentine's win pose

 

[Broseidon Rex]

c.HK

Wow, never noticed that ass grab/steadying itself.
Edit: Less likely steadying since Bella herself isn't steadying herself with her own hands (unless she's using that freaky Circus-De-Soleil Body core strength.

Annie of the Twerk

Doesn't count since she's not in skullgirls.

 

[WaterMystic277]

Scratch that, this is my favourite frame of all time.

 

[DDB]

I'm also a fan of this one.

 

[Dagwood]

Peacock's level 3
Peacock's air throw
Val's level 3
Val's counter
Val's command throw
Bella's excellabella
Bella's pummel horse
Squigly's stance charging where she spins Levi like a rope
Squigly's c.LP and s.LK


Over all if I had to choose 1 , probably Peacock's air throw, it always cracks me up.

 

[DukeMagus]

the final part fo goodfellas is the most badass pose in the whole game.

 

[thepaintrain8465]

Squigly's snapback.
That is all.

 

[Zazz]

I'll be here all week ladies and gentlemen.

Lab Zero should make this a win pose for her. It so good.

 

[ReluctantZombie]

Whenever I'm introducing somebody to Skullgirls, I always pick Double. I don't play her, but I find that seeing a nun turn herself inside out is a very effective first impression.

...Also, uh, my avatar.

 

[Squigly]

Squigly, while swap'd out. It's a great tombstone.

 

[tristePinguino]

From Filia's high hit animation:

Also...

Afro Nova!

Ms. Fortune's failed standing grab:

...Her standing medium punch:

...And her hit head:

 

[MaverickHunterX]

Peacock's time over animation reminds me of Daffy Duck.

 

[Karlaaldana]

-Squigly s.MP.
-Squigly walking charge stancel for kicks.
Peacock entire "good fellas".....BADASSERY to the limit.
