Well, I do agree with the cliches... some of which made me sick, especially some of the Paladin's dialouge, the red skies, and the sudden healing. I saw the deus ex machina a bit the first time I watched it, and found it stupid and disappointing, but after looking back at the series his sword was actually enhanced by a god, thus making deus ex machina, literally "god in the machine", more acceptable. I don't fully agree with the art just because I think your comments, while I agree with them, are a bit nitpicky compared to the overall graphical prowess in comparison to a lot of things on this site.
I like to draw and complain about stuff.

Well, my problem with the sword is, why did he have to go on this journey with the sword? Why id any of this happen? Why couldn't that good God just walk up and touch him? Or make the ground he stood on Holy? It invalidates the purpose of the journey.
I do agree on the cliches.. but i disagree on the art side.. even tho i hat misproportionated characters..i think the faces look good... but yeah i hate dark red skies as a sign of evil.. that's why in my next movie terror will take place on a sunny spring morning^^
I won't try to say that I am by any means some artist who knows it all, but ask any of the pros around this site what they think. People who know art probably have a bigger problem with it than others. Kind of like how music kids have an ear for poor playing of music, where someone like me wouldn't know the difference.
Cliches like the red skies and stuff I don't totally hate, it's just that it's a fail-safe. You don't have to construct anything or make people aware of anything. If the skies turn red, you don't need to explain why, since we've seen it before. But I just wish he was more willing to try something new. Cliches just substitute originality.
People should take the chance of their own way sucking, rather than relying on something you borrowed from someone else that you know will work.

I agree with most of what you said. Never found the series that interesting and thought the same things with the cliches and strange plot holes as i would call them.

It does make me sort of sad to hate his series. On one hand I commend his extensive effort, but on the other, I can't forgive the giant mistakes he made.
