A huge round of applause to the entire team behind this series. YOU GUYS ROCK!

[saumyashree]

I never thought that anyone can teach programming through a story-line .

I really appreciate all the hard work that Ted-Ed had put to make this series. ♥️

[pkingglazersout]

The graphics, the soundtrack, the plot, this will be very memorable and Nostalgic in the near future even if it's just 10 episodes. Thanks TED-Ed for offering us this masterpiece of a series

"And Hedge. Her creation. Her responsibility. Her failure. Her betrayer."

I… I've got something in my eye…

[hahanamegobrrr]

10:31 "Face-to-face with her creation, Ethic has a choice. She can destroy Hedge, or set things right"

Ah yes, a classic dilemma

[anika]

made Hedge as 'bug' is hilarious and genius at the same time :) and the dragon robot too, love it a lot
Great job Ted-ed!

Everyone came here for the coding lessons but stayed for the plot and animation.

When they hit me with that “ethic” referring back to her name. That made my heart drop. I don’t know how else to describe it.

[agmui]

"fixes her error with a single number"

u have no idea how many times that has happened to me

[ellagav]

i really hope that whoever animated this will get a prize for the best animation

[saumyashree]

Linus Torvalds : Talk is Cheap. Show me the code .

Ted-Ed : Well here you go

[aliciacheung]

Can we pause the video for a second and appreciate how well everything is named in this series?

[alexismandelias]

I love how the ending is a huge burn to the humanity itself

[Curious_Clover]

It's awesome how the twist in this series also shows how critical each part of a code is. Each character/number/sign counts. Even just a single mistake can ruin the entire code.

[VENOM-olpv]

Netflix: We have the most badass themes!
Ted : Hold my Coding series!

[TEDEd]

This saga may be over, but with your new skills, new adventures await!

The amount of effort put in this video is A LOT- a minute of 3D animation usually takes 8 or more days to make. Every minute. this _12-minute_ video took at least *96 hours* worth of work.

_This has more emotion than the entire Mulan Movie_

[HellsDevilwildrift]

I feel like my brains grows by 1% after each video of TED-ED
