I love that 90% of epic is depression, but whenever Hermes is on screen you know it’s fun time

[peachpotato]

Plot twist: the root didn't actually do anything except make him high as fuck and he's just hallucinating that he has powers now

[_MidnightSnow_]

“Odysseus tries drugs for the first time" you are such a real one for that.

[thepurestchild]

I just know the man who voice acts Hermes absolutely loves his job

[lordMartiya]

Hermes, the only god that was SAFE to have around and recognizable.
If you were allowed to recognize almost any other god while they were there, Big Things are about to happen and you're in the splash zone. If Hermes showed up... Worst that happened he made a hilarious joke that you are a couple thousands years too early to get.

THEY WAY HERMES IS SO FRUITY?? THE WAY HE DANGLES THE MOLY AND ODYSSEUS WATCHES IT LIKE A CAT?? HIS OUTFIT??? HOLY SHIT THIS IS AMAZING

[meganmay]

Okay, this might be my favorite Hermes design. I also love how he's explaining things The different situations appearing on like scroll

[Lavinia-gry]

Forget Circe, Hermes in this design is hotter. I’m swooning

[lucindagomez]

I love that they don’t give Hermes any grand motivation. He just heard his bro was having a real bad time and wanted to help

[EV]

I love the fact that at 1:13 hermes adjusts the screen as if he notices that we're watching

[Itz_-Yuna]

Eurylochus watching his captain fly through the sky with some greek editioned Peter Pan after he lectured him about how much all men who had to be saved were TOP priority : Ody WHAT THE FU-

[Godgirl]

I love how silly Hermes is, yet at 0:38 you can still see how powerful he is and how the color change reflects that Hermes is getting down to business!

[audreyweis]

Wait you’re telling me the “Ohh”’s at 2:30 have been Ody this WHOLE TIME??? That makes so much sense…

[jaskawal]

1:01 I love that the lyrics *"she can all but make you fall in love like you are on your hundredth date"* but the scroll just shows Ody being like 🤨😨 and backing away showing he's totally immune to the charm 😂

[coldmorningdew]

I love that the design has Troys iconic outfit, sunglass and that fluffy jacket!

[DavvyChappy]

I love that you use sunglasses to emulate how Hermes' eyes are supposed to be shadowed

[Befuddled-draws]

2:13 Hermes showing up like he’s at your ring doorbell at 3 AM trying to sell you that holy moly

[Anglca_Edtzz]

okay Hermes’s design has me giggling and kicking my feet WHAT HAVE YOU DONE LOL

[ThatOneWeirdUncle]

I love how bouncy Hermes is this! I swear he is constantly moving throughout the video, that have must have taken ages.

[kakao]

I just noticed how Hermes has two tiny wings in his hair and two bigger on his helmet. He also looks older and more threathing with the helmet on and more childlish, teeanager like when its off. I like to think that the reason why the helmet is off for the whole song is bcs he wants to show Ody that he is an ally, a friend who can help, but when he tells him that he 'still very well may die' the helmet is back bcs yea Hermes helped him but he is still a trickster, not to be trusted and such, so the threathing God look is back.
It is my interpetation and I will die on this hill.
