Weird shadow on buildup

Ive never seen this before....

What causes that weird shadow thing? Does the buildup need more frames?

The anim doesn't have any shadows frames so it's instead using the last half of the build up as the shadow frames.

It's really that simple.... Is there a easy way to do shadows for something like this?

You can just insert blank frames (equal in number to the anim) at the end of the shp to at least fix the length of the build up.

You could also just wait for Symphonic to finish making this building & release it, instead of just converting the preview gif.
