It wasn't deep. It didn't have much to say. But Xiao Xiao inspired millions to try Flash animation for themselves.
A Beijing artist made this series -- and turned stick fights into a phenomenon. We're exploring why and how he did it:

Anime.js 4.1.3 was just released with lots of small bug fixes. I'm particularly happy with the improved tween composition accuracy. Handling multiple overlapping animations on the same target is much more complex than you'd expect.

@bram.us how safe is it to use `animation.effect.target`? The specs mention it as a potential future feature but after some tests it looks like it's already supported across Safari / FF / Chrome. And if not recommended, is there a better way to access the target registered on an animation? Thanks!
