User blog:Savage Samurai/Carnage VS Lucy Commentary Trivia


 * Noel dumbed down Jerado's editing because it made his look bad by comparison.
 * Going into the episode, Ben didn't know that the Carnage suit was actually made of blood (5:00).
 * One problem with this episode was leading into the gore of Elfen Lied. While, it's not the first time an anime has been gory, it is the first time where it's so prevalent within the source material (7:15).
 * Everyone started cheering when they showed the aftermath of the dog killing scene when they showed this at RTX (8:00).
 * Why was Lucy picked to fight Carnage (9:15)? They essentially felt that this matchup was the best connections-wise. Both are crazy, fight using tentacle-arm things, kill lots of people, based on non-human entities designed to wipe out humanity. Alex Mercer also makes sense but he's heavily requested for another matchup.
 * Ben outright says Cole MacGrath is the other potential combatant for Alex Mercer so it's practically confirmed to happen (10:40).
 * One thing they encountered with Lucy is that even though she's an obscure character and despite the fact that most people who have even heard of her will think of the anime, the manga is the original source material, is very different from the anime and as such that was where she got the majority of her feats (11:00).
 * Carnage has been a potential death battle combatant for a long time. Ben believes they were looking into ideas for him as long as 2012-2013 (12:30).
 * HyperJerk did some animation for this episode (13:10).
 * This episode was interesting because there was a battle of how much could be shown as one of the combatant's attacks are usually invisible (14:00).
 * The 3D background was made by Zack (14:25).
 * The animation was essentially split up into two different parts for the animators to work on. The hand drawn-bits were done by Zack, Hyper Jerk and Jetz while Kervin did the majority of the sprite work.
 * Part of Chris Guerrero's sound file was essentially just a lot of guttral noises for them to use (15:00).
