Soul Blade Opening


This is the opening sequence for the 1996 Playstation game 'Soul Blade' created by Hiroshi Kuwabara.
The reason that I find this piece of animation particulary memorable is because it was probably one of the first CGI animations I'd ever seen and I remember being mesmerized by it as a kid. I think it's really impressive how it introduces the characters and gets across their motivations in the game without any dialogue. 
I think that the animation is extremely fluid for its time and nicely stylised. 
The songs a bit cringey but I think its still a great animation for its time (especially to be played on a Playstation)!
