Web Animation Watch: Senpai Club, Nephtali, Penguin Rave and more

Thanks to the new digital frontier of the internet, there's more animation available than ever before. But with so much material out there in this web-wild-west, how are you supposed to know what's worth your precious time? That's where we come in. Welcome back to yet another Web Animation Watch!




There's many western animators who have tried to make convincing tributes or parodies of anime, but so often they don't quite pull it off. Senpai Club from Makebabi.es is one of the few exceptions- it's even in Japanese with subtitles!  Having already brilliantly captured modern anime, they turn to classic 80s style for the latest episode! Amazingly authentic.






Grab your glowsticks! The ever awesome Weebl's here with Raving Penguins!




We can always rely on Mashed to bring together things we love in mash-ups we didn't know that we wanted (but totally did). This time? Gremlins and Guardians Of The Galaxy!



How It Should Have Ended has just reached its 10th anniversary... Congratulations! To celebrate in style they've made an epic parody of Taylor Swift's Bad Blood music video featuring Batman and Superman.. but also practically every other movie character you can think of too!




To close out, something a little bit more high-brow than your usual WAW fodder here. Not surprising really, seeing as it's from the legendary former Disney animator Glen Keane. Commissioned by Opera De Paris (and therefore in French) it's got some beautiful, old-school hand-drawn animation.
