Hermitcraft... but before Mumbo

In this episode of Hermitcraft, Mumbo goes back to Hermitcraft season 1. The only season of Hermitcraft that he wasn't in, and tours the world from a Hermitcraft fan perspective. Mumbo Jumbo religiously watched almost every episode from all of the Hermits, and the 2012 Minecraft nostalgia hit hard. The Hermitcraft mega bases, the Hermitcraft pranks and the Hermitcraft shopping district all look so different!

It was such a delight seeing all those familiar spots again, and thanks especially for all the kind words!

Lovely video Mumbo :-) So glad we got you in for the second season!!

"I'm so impressed at Joe's consistency at being Joe"
So are we all Mumbo, so are we all

[Jessassin]

It was an absolute joy to see my old base again. Thanks for the showcase, I really miss that place.

"I just remember watching this world, this shopping district, on my phone in bed." A beautiful, subtle reminder that even the coolest YouTubers are normal people at their core

"It looks a lot smaller"
It's a valid sentiment considering the Elytra didn't exist yet, so scale was the limiting factor early on.

Wow blast from the past! Sorry that tunnel was so long to the pyramid base 😂 Really cool seeing a tour of the original season 1 server!

Mumbo has better knowledge of what was happening on hermitcraft 11 years ago than he did when he gave a guided tour of season 6.

Damn. Joe Hills is STILL using that building from season 1 on his Friday live streams. That's dedication right there.

[PhonyLyzard]

It's pretty funny how mumbo got rejected after asking to join, and then they let him in for the immediate next season, they were like, "this british kid's actually kinda dope."

[Galaxy-qfvc]

No one will be as much as a Hermitcraft stan as Mumbo, this man canonically inserted himself into the series

[bananabro]

Mumbo repeatedly going “oh I remember now!” And “Wow I remember…” is so relatable and sweet.

Watching my Minecraft hero absolutely fangirling Xisuma's builds are exactly what I needed today

[BlahCraft]

12:40 I'm happy to see that Joe's humor hasn't changed in years.

[AerwiarArchives]

I'm chuffed to bits that Mumbo is in Hermitcraft. Just wouldn't be the same place without our mayor and king. 👑

[electra]

Watching Mumbo being #1 Hermitcraft superfan is very charming, and it's fun to see all these old builds! Joe Hills is indeed every bit as Joe Hills as Joe Hills has ever been.

Good thing you got accepted in the second season - I can't imagine a Hermitcraft without Mumbo

[Titanblade]

It’s funny how Mumbo’s original idea for his vault was to make it hard to get into and now that he’s seen the Hermit Hurting Hurdles he’s totally forgotten about that and is like “hey what a cool idea, I’ll do it next season”

[joshuabusch]

Mumbo's excitement is infectious. I started watching Hermitcraft in Season 7, and started with Mumbo. I've never seen Season 1 and I still found myself enjoying the world tour simply just bcuz of how much Mumbo was enjoying himself

[chikcon-]

Hermitcraft without mustache man??? unthinkable

Seriously, though, Mumbo is such an important part of Hermitcraft, it's weird to think there was a time when he wasn't in it.
