Traditional 2D Animation - Mecha vs. Jet

Okay, so in my intro to traditional 2D animation course this was my final project. Just a simple little animation. It could have looked better if I focused less on the effects... but I learned something important: I absolutely LOVE animating effects (smoke, explosions, etc). No, it's not sophisticated, but it was a fun. I was able to apply what I learned about animating explosions and put them to use digitally.

Check my videogame shoot 'em up concept demo to see similar effects drawn and animated in color and moving.

I need to add sound one of these days. That'd really make it more watchable...

i've recently been researching how to make japanese anime but none are posted

i've bought a book that has the materials but doesn't show you how use them and i'm not sure if it's done traditional or modern it's always something i want to try and give it a shot but first i'm practicing drawing manga and finishing up a manga fanfic and after i'm done with that i'll do a fanfic (professionally) animation but i'm not sure if i can do that thought i need help?
