This is BREATHTAKING?? The fact I've remembered that Reus is a shapeshifter made me more interested.. This was such a blast and I love how the color palette fits the song and the theme!! I'm filled with so many theories.. is this where Dante sooner or later gets that cool looking metal arm?

[drinkthestorm]

0:46 It seems she managed to burn Reus, i wonder if a shapeshifter can even scar

[Renchocho]

WOW, THOSE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, THE MOVEMENT, THE ANIMATION ITSELF IT'S AMAZING!

[stormsurge]

I don't think I've seen anyone mention this but I think Sandra ends up blinding Ismene. After the big fire attack Dante blocks with the pillar we see her eyes being the same sort of grey as Dante's burnt paw. And in several previous animatics we see Ismene with either blue eyes with black pupils or grey eyes with white pupils depending on if it's set pre or post Sandra's escape.

THE COMPOSITION AND THE EDITING HERE IS STUNNING! Your animations are always so cool and unique. My favorite part was when Reus turned into a bird to escape Sandra's flames that was sick

[quillwisp]

That was so fucking good! The storytelling was absolutely freaking gorgeous along with the usage of different focus of shots and the intense perspective lines!
Hell, it was so worth it to see it, I can't wait to see what exactly happened!👀

[Atsuoru]

This was INSANE!! :DD The composing, palette, storytelling are amazing, this was such a treat, loved every little bit of it!
Also is this how Dante (I believe it's his name?) loses his paw?~ hohoho.... /squints/

[Draikinator]

WOW. Absolutely stunning. The movement is just beautiful and the shot composition is incredible. Such a treat to watch.

Wait a minute, legit took 3 re-watches for me to figure this out. So Sandra bascilly took Dantes arm? I've always found his robot arm so cool and now to know what happend to it is just so interesting! You have amazing story telling and videos, I'm loving the story and can't wait to see more from you! This is Brilliant! 🎉

[morningglory.]

OKAY HOLY SHIT
This is so amazing! The weight to all the movements, how easy the action is to follow, the masterful compositions. Just OMG. I just LOVE the atmosphere that you build at the start with the buildings on fire and then Sandra’s reveal is so much more of an “oh shit” moment. Also my interest is like suuuper peaked when it comes to Sandra and Ismene’s relationship… like why would Dante choose her form to take if she wasn’t special to Sandra. Not to mention they’re together in the didn’t come to play meme. GAHHH can’t wait to see what you do next!!!

[YoursTruely_]

The new animatic gives this so much more context, and it’s beautiful. =)

[CuteFlare]

THE TIMING IN THIS...!! This is so addicting to watch - I love how the movements and the overall flow go SO WELL with the song! Especially at the sudden pauses - the slow-motion is so well executed and I am in love with the PACING AAA ♥
The colors for this animatic are a perfect fit for the alarming sound of the song~ My favorite part is probably the point where Sandra burns up the cheek and reveals the shapeshifting that Reus (?) is doing! This makes me even more invested and looking forward to the series and how everything connects! ♥Keep up the wonderful work!^^

[Tomfooleryx]

every single time i open youtube this video seems to slither on my page, and everytime it does i rewatch it, there are hundreds of animators on this app alone, but i think this is by far my favourite, and the best i've seen, despite it not being fully coloured etc<33 i LOVE your animations so much, aswell as your art style you truly are one of my biggest idols/inspirations and your lore is TOP TIER from what i've seen,

[Liynxy]

OH WAIT A MINUTE I REALIZED SOMETHING
In the part that Sandra use her fire powers at 0:58, Ismene crouches down and closes her eyes, as if the fire has reached her eyes, and when she opens it the color look different as if she's blind.
And in the "Didn't come to play" meme Ismene's eyes were so pure blue, and in Peer Pressure and the Americas memes her eyes are with a clear blue color. And her eyes pupil are not black as the other characters so this means that she's blind?

I dont know if it is obviously or it is right but yeah, that's my thought! Excited to see everything that will happen in the series! Good job for everyone that is working on it! (:

[Jusoms]

Oh wow the trailer looks amazing alr! Cant wait!

Edit: holy crap. This sent shivers down my spine, it was too good!!

[lexiyaanimates]

Woah this is amazing! This really fills a lot of gaps in the story. I liked seeing Reus' shape shifting in action. The perspective, action, and the color pallette fit so well with this song!

[Something]

I’m in love with this song rn! like the “ground” repeated for thee times it kills me and how the animation shows even it’s not fully coloured or shaded it’s still comes apart really nice awesome work 👏👏😭💞💕✨

[yohanan-_-]

After being on the premiere and rewatching this masterpiece for sometime I started wondering about too many things.
First thing that came into my mind is Reus' ability to camouflage. And even becoming a bird. Also, there were some scenes with him before, where Reus stands with animals like a polar owl and a polar bear, if I remember it clearly. I assume, he can talk to animals, right? Or another interesting option is he can transform into any creature._.
Also, I'm kinda sure Sandra is gonna burn down his wings in the future too, 'cause in 'Machine Gun' animation meme he had none.

Another thing is Sandra's sister or maybe mother. The way I see it Ismene is her mother, but time will show us the actual truth. But I really think that in the 'The night we met' animation we saw Ismene and her mate and Sandra's father as well. Anyway, the question is why did Ismene let Sandra to be shot down? Was Sandra attacking her because she thought that Ismene did it on purpose? Or maybe she was sure Ismene was fake again.

The thing that seems the most important to me. If Asha's medallion is removed, she will pass out immediately and she won't be able to use her power. Then, what's the problem to remove Sandra's earrings while she is asleep, so she can't burn anyone? The only logical answer I could find is all about Ismene. She has no black things anywhere, but still has magical abilities. If Sandra was born with this power, it feels right. But in my way of thinking, then it's not necessary for her to wear her earrings all the time. But this cool black things can't be just accessory, can it?

The last but not the least interesting fact is Asha's ability to heal with her medallion. I wonder if she will heal Dante and Reus at the end and these boys will get their missing parts of their bodies back.
This thing is here only because Asha and Sandra are exactly like yin and jang! Isn't this adorable?

[Nekru]

OMG I LOVE
