So the language has to be English for a cartoon to be good?

@vanderlej A cartoon usually is at its best when it's in its native tongue, in my opinion. This video does get highly rated, but for me it would start getting a rating if it didn't had any speech at all. It would have made the story a little bit more enjoying. As one can fill in the blanks themselves rather than a written story being told, which is in my opinion a story half-baked. Many critics will possibly disagree though, but that is what is so nice about opinions are allowed to differ.

The quality made it rly hard to read; had to shrink it, but I enjoyed it. Cute "couple".
