so some background information for those who don't know:
when ford got pushed through the portal he entered the nightmare realm, and then spent the next couple of years exploring different dimensions. in one of these dimensions he was saved by a mysterious women named the oracle who ford believes is bill's equal/opposite or something (can't quite remember). she helped ford and made a prediction of his future saying 'you have the face of the man who will defeat bill'. and even helped ford get geared up to fight bill (by putting his metal plate in)

[PokemonkaDub]

OH YES, BECAUSE IT WASN'T ABOUT HIM.
THE "FACE OF THE ONE TO DEFEAT BILL" AND HE WAS NOT THE SAME PERSON HE USED TO BE ANYWAY SO IT HAS DOUBLE MEANING AND OH PERFECT!!!

[alpha_wolf]

why do the songs match up with gravity falls so well? like, it lines up almost perfectly

[amclark]

STUNNING! The song of past romance kills me, but not as much as the SACRIFICE OF MAN HOW DARE YOU

ALSO Bill’s eye becoming black for a brief second as the vision of young ford and bill getting along dissipates???? Visionary

[SaraFrank-hr]

THIS. IS AMAZING. I- WOW. “SACRIFICE OF MAN” WITH FIDDLEFORD???? HELLO???? MY HEART. IS GONE. SHATTERED. UR AMAZING. I-WORDS. NOT WORKING FOR MOUTH.

[asphyxeno]

0:38 THE WAY THE IMAGE IN THE BUBBLE CHANGES AS IT DISPERSES WHATTT I've been watching this every day and i only just noticed this holy dang

[Skydog]

Extremely late but the axoltolo behind the oracle is extremely well done and the bubbles being similar to the weirdmageision implying the link between the oracle and Bill
Aslo ford on the ground after seeing this
I love it

[UnityBringer]

me rewatching My Goodbye x 10 and then getting hit WITH ANOTHER BANGER FROM YOU. Loving these so much. The way you have the bubbles float around is absolutely *amazing*. I love how fluid it all feels despite being an animatic only.

[nerdydragonfan]

GALLOWS!!! I LOVE You! Drop Another Animatic And My LIFE Is Yours!!!


Also! I love the implications of 0:26. Where the Oricale SAYS "there is a world, where I help you get home~", but SHOWS Ford killing Bill with the Quantium Distablizer, rather than him coming out of the Portal.
Because Ford had no plans to "get home". He believed and accepted very early on, that this was a 'one way trip'. So he decided to dedicate the REST OF HIS LIFE to defeating Bill.
But like the double meaning of the song; things don't go as planned.

[carrotcrunch]

omg the details and transition at 0:38!! Bill's eye turning dark and Ford crying!! Man, your Gravity Falls animatics never miss

[FruitEevee]

I'm not crying, im just cosplaying as a waterfall....

[KazeHatesIt]

0:39 NAH CUZ THIS FRAME CHANGING I JUST NOTICED NOW

[_nico.yes_.]

EPIC AND GRAVITY FALLS TOGETHER?? OMG THIS IS A MASTERPIECE AND YOU MADE MY ENTIRE YEARRRR

[Lethal_Dragon]

Oh this is so good! I love the bubbles showing Ford's past and then the transition to him being there when Stan pushed him and Ford seeing his future self about to come through the portal!
Wonderful work!

[johnchism]

BEAUTIFUL!!!! 10/10. I only wish we had the rest of the song. But this is god enough.

[lexistcipher]

Ive seen so many gravity falls animatics with Epic soundtracks

Lowkey living for them

[beetlejuiceblues]

Oh my GODS yet again you did not miss. The animation of the bubbles was so smooth, I screamed.

I'm gonna beg you to animate the rest of the song, because I need a shot of Stanley and the memory gun on "A brother's final stand". Jheselbraum's comment in Journal 3 of seeing "a man who looks like Ford" defeating Bill literally haunts me

[Beansaplenty]

This and the My Goodbye Animations are absolutely stunning!! I’m legitimately so in love with your scene compositions and your clear understanding of the characters in how they move and their emotions!! I can’t wait to see more from you in the future!! 💞

[Smol-vehvi]

This is really well executed! It's not often that I see Jheselbraum get love or fan art in the fandom so I loved seeing her here! 💕

[Beansaplenty]

I wonder if Fiddleford would fall in love with him again if he knew all he’s done, the things he cannot change, would he love him all the same? (Sorry I saw a chance and I took it lmao)
