Very smooth, which is one of the most important things. You've got the first step of goof animation down, now it's just movement. Rarely will you ever see a movement (during combat) that only uses one limb. You need to make sure every part of the body moves with each punch, kick, jump, whatever. Just incorporate these movements and you're well on your way to making some good looking stuff!

It's not that good, to be honest. Stickmen are really stiff and the movements aren't smooth
As i said in your previous animation, practice basic movements, read tutes and learn about easing and flow.

Holy shit what? That is literally one of the least important aspects of animation.


To be honest, the animation needs a lot of work. I suggest that you look at Rez Tutorials for a good, practical look at the fundamentals of pivot. For some extra theoretical knowledge about animation, you might want to look at Alan Becker's Tutorials, especially his explaination of the 12 principals of animation.
