The theme of this movies the battle between cloned poke'mon and the originals. The theme is exemplified in this scene by the use of the cloned and origional poke'mon fighting eachother. The theme is didactive because the audience is generally younger unless you're me.

Line- The use of line is prevalent because it is all drawing attention to the characters. For example Ash the boy with the hat. Is found staring at fight scene. The lines around him are directing towards his face.

Shape- each character has their own shape. The turtles are round, which is contrasted by the other pokemon which may be oval, and some maybe square. This gives contrast in the scene just by the different characters.

Space- the space in this scene is large. The reason that it is is that it shows that there is much space to fight in this scene and to allow all the characters to fit in the scene.

Rhythm- the rythm of the scene is fast. It cuts at rapid pace to show the chaos of the scene. That all the pokemon are fighting their clone and that the matches are equal and neither can win.

The movement is erratic in the scene. They are moving fast which creates affinity in the whole scene. Allowing their to be similarities in the entire scene.

Animation deconstruction
This first screen shot is from the television series Hellsing.
  The colors are mostly dark in the background surrounding Alucard. His shirt is a dark saturated red color to show he is a blood sucker. Creating a parallel with the fact he is a vampire. There is a lack of brightness in this scene except for his eyes which are burning very bright. The Hues are along the same warm color scheme.

The lighting in this scene is very dark. The background and his face are completely hidden in the shadows. This symbolizes the fact that his true identity and name are unknown. His named spelled backwards is Dracula so many believe that he truly is the original night walker. The movements are still as he is pulling the dagger out of his chest. The weight in the scene is created when his bow around his neck moves when he pulls the knife out of his chest.

Screenshot 2:

 This shot is of Sirius Victoria portrays many things. First the colors and hues are all very bright contrasting the shots of Alucard. Victoria is also a vampire, but she is new and has softer motives. The colors are bright. Her hues are complimentary. There is very little saturation in her shot which is opposite of Alucard who is monochromatic. There are no shadows in this screenshot which is opposite of Alucard as well. The symbolism here is that Victoria is a very innocent character and has very little blood on her hands. Her innocence is still intact even though she is now a vampire. The mood therefore is bright and promising opposite than Alucard as well.
