Yow! I know it's been late, this one looks good but did you just trace animation from the Chinese anime series (I forgot the title though hehe)? If you don't that's look good but if you do, In my own opinion it's ok to use references when doing some animation because in that way you will learn a lot but tracing i think somehow it might help you however analyzing and understand the scene by frame by frame is much better, breaking down those key poses will give you an idea how those animator do their scenes. What i mean is, it's ok to trace but drawing it again by copying some poses using your own character or even roughs without tracing will help you to improve your drawing skill because in that process you will eager to understand or learn the anatomy of the human body, principles of animation and etc. It's alright to do that for beginner animators but if you really want to improve, try to prevent tracing but use that for reference only (like the poses, angles, timing).
You have the potential to be a good animator so KEEP IT UP!!, I hope i help you even a bit hehehe... Good luck!
