Bayonetta Animator Shows How Enemies Fight Back
05/20/2009 Written by JohnDraisey
Eijiro, an animator on Sega’s upcoming game Bayonetta, was able to talk about enemy animation and how he approaches this complex task.

Eijiro included the following videos to showcase these two parts to every enemy attack:

Shortest videos ever. The screen shot looks cool.
ya it looks pretty cool.
Nothing unusual
so he explained pretty much what every game does? show an animation before the attack?
once you learn the trick, it sort of ruins it for me. The monster needs to learn what I’m
doing and change it up a little bit. Not harder, just different.
BTW, her ass is distracting.
shortest video ever :S wtf. lol.
C ool.
