The Xiao Xiao stickman fighters of the early two-thousandsies were a thing of young, viral video internet glory (I made quite the shameless use of KaZaA back in day). Nowadays you’ll find the legacy has lived on in top-notch form, ever-changing with the times thanks to animators like Jhanzou on YouTube. His latest as of last month is called Combat Gods and I seriously hope this phenomenon continues to stay as fresh as it has been – point in fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if some producer saw this as an idea for feature film investment.
…and there it is. I’ve said it. No taking-it-back now.
