In the name of fairness, we want to be transparent on how we judged each submission and inevitably picked the finalists. We really appreciate the meme animation community and are committed to making the selection process as fair and democratic as possible.

We received over 890 submissions and randomly divided up the total amount of submissions between seven members of the CloudKid team. We made sure to go through every single one and picked those that really connected with us individually to put forward to the final round.

From here, each team member rated a score out of ten for each video based on the following categories: Animation Quality, Creativity/Originality, and Emotional Connection/Story. These scores get averaged out for each category, and each category’s score is weighted equally to give a final score out of 100. The winners are then decided from these scores and approved by Sir Fluff. 😊

Once again, thank you to everyone that submitted - it was a pleasure to watch your video! ❤ 🙌

I must admit some of them are extremely underrated and need to be recognize more! Thank you for hosting the contest and congratulation to all the winners!

[rumbogumbo]

Cant believe y’all chose the content farm over several talented artists 💀

[neoni]

It is incredible to see all the creative energy that went into every submission! Absolutely blown away by the artistic approach each one of you took and we are so excited to see this final edit come together. Thank you Sir Fluff, Cloudkid and each one of you that submitted animation!!!

[sir_fluff]

im so happy for the winners!!! especially for the underated artists, hope they get more recognition after this 😭
TY again to cloudkid for letting me host a another epic contest!! 🕺💖🕺

[stolen]

literally all of the runner ups were more creative, better animated, and overall higher quality than second place tf are y'all thinking 😭

[kabliahk]

Just here to add another comment that it's startling how Louxiei's entry did not place. Literally baffling. I agree with many comments that say next time fandom characters should be excluded. Naturally Luna is going to be loved more than someone's OC... and it feels biased, whether that was the intention or not

[wlfquestdarkecho]

Is anyone going to talk about Louxie? I'm so disappointed by the judges.

[greahound]

There is bias in a few of these winners. Animation quality and storytelling should sit higher than "oh hey, I know that character". When the runner ups have noticeably better quality animation and storytelling comparatively, that is a problem.

[BumbleBird]

Incredibly disappointed that Louixie didn't get a spot in this, atleast as a runner up 😕, felt like the runner ups had more heart but Congrats anyway to the winners chosen! Def loved the runner up ones and some of the picked winners esp 5th and 3rd! <3

[shrubbee]

There is nothing wrong with making a fan animation about a show/video game. Some of the best animations I seen were fan animations about a show, but I do have to agree this is a bit biased. Making your own story and characters takes more effort and originality, and I feel like more animators should of got recognized for it.

[xXGloomuraiXx]

AINT NO WAY THAT LOONA ANIMATION GOT SECOND AND STAINEDEGE, SERENITYVOID AND OVERSEER WERE ALL RUNNER UPS WHAT💀💀

[xamnade]

0:48 so are we just not gonna talk about this??? LIKE the movement here is SO SMOOTH

[shadowgirl]

Can we talk about the fact that animators are getting copyright strikes on their channel for animating this song for the contest??? Something really needs to be done about this

[dreaming_destiny]

I do admit, I don’t agree with some of the results. However, I do think that everyone who participated did amazing! Congrats to the winners!!

[Aniktion]

Congrats to the winners!!
But I do need to point out that your runner ups should receive the same kind of credits and links as your winners. There is a blatant unfairness between you linking the original videos of the winners and only tagging the runner ups when both parties had their content utilized in this video the same way. Be fair to the runner ups and give them the full credits they deserve.

[eldragonis]

i didn't expect to be in the top ten what 😭😭 literally it was such a blast to work on this and I'm so happy for the winners and runner ups, I've also watched most of the submissions i could find and i must say five places just weren't enough!!!! Honored to be a part of the animation meme community and to get to see such wonderful contests and projects come to life!!

[Jaysfabulousfangirl]

Louxie deserved at least a runner up. She did amazing :(

[Mr_Argentavis]

The fact that rocky was second makes me want to tear my eyes out

[wlfquestdarkecho]

Um.. How is Louixie's not even mentioned in here? I'm absolutely baffled.
