Everyone asks: “What is the Warden?”
But only Orange knows how is the Warden

Mojang, take notes. The Warden's flute scene was so sweet.

[RaymondSunwito]

Wow, i like the flashback one. Amazing!

[BushMan-jsjw]

5:04 who else felt chills of a broken heart and the warmth of a musical melody as soon as the song played?

[briellehenderson]

Fun detail I noticed about when learning about how noteblocks work in Minecraft: The flute sound is produced by placing a noteblock on top of clay or a honeycomb block. So it actually makes perfect sense why SC would be able to make a flute out of a candle with it being crafted from honeycomb.
So the flute scene, in that way, is definitely consistent with actual Minecraft mechanics lol

this went from horror, to wholesome, to depressing to action, i've felt every emotion during this video.

[hypershadic]

This is the perfect example of "show, don't tell." Even without words, Alan Becker has made something truly amazing, and he deserves way more credit for it.

I realized that the Warden wasn't a ferocious and feared beast... but a pure, kind, caring, and gentle creature. I was shocked as well since the iron golem was not the only protector of the villagers. That song that helped calm the warden down was so emotional. This was an amazing video!

All these animation, we came together agan to appriciate the masterpiece that has been created.

[Alayawills]

The warden:
Scary, dangerous, and very fast, corrupted

The backstory:
Kind, gentle, careful, happy, and wholesome

[iStealth.]

Alan really never disappoints... best animator in the world!!!

[Cementin]

Fun fact: If I counted correctly, the Warden punches Orange King 10 times. A Warden deals at the very minimum 8 hearts with their attacks. This means that the Orange King has, at the VERY LEAST, 80 hearts. And if we're going with the highest possible, that is 225 hearts.

[Pixelcraftian]

Love this episode, really like the ending feeling of _"Oh no, he found it."_

Can't wait for the next episode! Really awesome :D

[PlazaMC]

I LOVE THESE ANIMATIONS! PLEASE MAKE MORE!

[zenmanlovesmusic]

Using music to communicate with the Warden, with how sound sensitive they are is a genius idea.

[alexlik]

I love how you portrayed the ancient underground village! Personally, I think that the wardens were like an iron golem to them, and you showed that so well!
I can't wait for the next episode!

[FuromeNavi]

Alan: *flashback of warden’s past*

Matpat: “a man of culture”

[rawlicious]

I cried at the flute scene with the warden, it showed him old memories of what used to be his life, his friends the villagers of his civilization, the layout itself is beautiful, how bright and friendly it used to be. Until whatever tragedy has bestowed them happened. The warden lost everything and almost himself, and his memories of those times came back with the song of the people he cared for

[EpicSans_ItsOver]

3:47 "OMG HE JUST THREW AWAY THE ENCHANTED GOLDEN APPLE! WHAT A WASTE!"
Well he doesn't even have any weapons not like it would help much anyway.

[Catastropheex]

With this new outlook on the warden you can be much more sympathetic. Considering its strength in the game and ancient design you could say it possibly predates the end dimension and is older than the ender dragon. And if it's named "the warden" it's obviously meant to protect something, not destroy it, and it still protects its home from intruders to this day.
