Blender must improve its cutout and rigging tools and features to match Toon Boom's, such as Deformers, full 360-degree turns, etc, for Grease Pencil—either by the Blender Foundation or the community via add-ons/plugins. This also applies to OpenToonz, Tahoma2D, and Krita.

Remember that scene from Jimmy Neutron film, where King Goobot V is outraged at one of his minions coming to his royal throne "unannounced" and orders "Space Him" as the minion is sucked by a vacuum and sent into the void. Imagine that, but for Imposter & Crewmatee from Among Us.

It's just an example of how in some versions the final boss is bad, while in others it's good, and I wished this was how the final boss in the original version should have played out but never did for whatever reason.

But in the Game Boy Advance version of Rayman 3, which serves as a continuation of Rayman 2 (and in the prototype builds, unused spirits of characters in Rayman 2 designs prove it), you face Razorbeard using the Grolgoth against Rayman.

In the original Rayman, the main villain, Mr. Dark, steals the Great Protoon, causing Electoons to lose stability and scatter throughout the Valley, which leads to Betilla being kidnapped. However, you never face him in a traditional final boss battle.

However, now that the PC version of Rayman M/Arena can be modded, it should be possible to create a mod for Ly that includes a new model and animations. And Ly will appear in Rayman M2, an unofficial fangame sequel, with no size/height restrictions preventing her from joining.

Many of us agree that Ly the Fairy should have been playable in Rayman M/Arena, as evidenced by the promotion, but due to size/height issues related to the hitbox or other reasons, she was cut and replaced with Tily the Fairy, an exclusive character for the game.

Toon Boom-style cutout and rigging animation tools, such as deformers, are all locked by Toon Boom, which is now a subscription service, and no 2D animation app, aside from Moho, has Toon Boom-style cutout and rigging animation tools, which I wish they did.

When will we see a 2D animation app, especially an open-source one like Blender's Grease Pencil, include Toon Boom-style cutout and rigging animation tools that can replicate and achieve hand-drawn animation with cutouts and rigs similar to Toon Boom's deformers?
