I love this. My biggest crit is the landing pose feels odd to me. It's obviously an attack, but the sword is landing next to him, rather than him thrusting it forward, where the enemy would be. Like right now, just before the landing, it looks like he's about to reach out and attack, but then lands with his arms back and to his side. Doesnt make sense as an attack.

Good stuff though.

Don't worry at all about that part, for those who grew up with Mortal Kombat (and are playing Mortal Kombat X at the moment) can imagine the body laying next to your guy. The way I see it, the guy just smashes his sword into the body without even looking at the body.. like: "You ain't even worth this FATALITY!"
