Animate Battles!

[msconstrew]

A friend of mine and I decided to do a little animate Fight Club last night. I thought I was going to pee my pants from laughing; thought I'd share. We did three battles, which I'll post in three pieces to save your eyes.

Also, next time? Shan Wizard vs. Shan Ranger.
