[1.2.378] Magicians in Jump

Does anyone else think they're trying too hard to turn AM's into BaM's? And just on skill animations.
1. Paralyze is disgusting now. And why does it stab, just no.
2. Glacial Chain is basically advanced dark chains but more ice-like (reference to I/L AM's becoming BaM's).
3. Mist explosion has a similar animation to when Empress Cygnus summons her bosses.

Just so you know, Nexon reuses a vast majority of its animations. Usually, if you look hard enough you can find resized and recolored versions of old animations in a lot of new attacks. For example, brandish is composed of the swing animation used for a Divine Charged sword, the hit animation from Coma, the small dust cloud from Rush (and various other skills), and the hit animation from Blast.

I also have to disagree with you on that bit with Paralyze. I actually like the way it looks, though I would like it to stay centered behind the player like it was before. I also think that it should at least shoot some sort of projectile, maybe show a bunch of snakes go into the ground and have 3 of them come up under each of the monsters that's hit and strike at them.
