Plot Twist: Philip knows about the barbarian tradition now so he knows what to expect when he sees the symbol, and since SYMBOL OF DEATH isn't a recognized Holy Combat stratagem, by the rules Jules hasn't made his official RPCB move... until he begins to punch towards Philip with his closed fist. Philip holds up his empty hand and declares victory revealing that his paper beats Jules' rock.

I feel like they used that line so that we make that connection. Wouldn't be surprised if it's the same va

Some point there has to be a dude from a foreign land that dominates the kingdom with the strange power of "Tic Tac Toe"

[@A_Random_Ghost]

I can see Sam's beard under the costume even in the AI render😂

[@jlol933]

This had no business being this awesome

[@myself2782]

With the way the AI-interpreted frames tend to warp and shift in animation, I wonder if any animators have exploited it to make really gnarly Lovecraftian horrors. Imagine a hand-drawn mass of eyes and tentacles moving like that.

[@Valadion1]

There is one youtuber called wizardhead who does this. Search for "fruit salat horror"

[@chancepaladin]

the ai randomly does it sometimes whether you want it to or not, depends on its mood.

[@Wignut]

So far, I think only Secret Invasion's intro used it on purpose to bring a sense of identity loss and anxiety. Too bad the show was shit.

[@XHackManiacX]

If you search for "ai eating spaghetti" you'll see some horrors. Don't say I didn't warn ya.

[@chaosdirge4906]

That's mostly what I have ai draw when I give it ques because it's just really good at doing lovcraftian things. I prompted a simple ai to make drawings of lavos vs cthulhu and the images it came up with were amazing. It's also really scary that our ai can be like "ahh yes, tenticle monsters that are horrifying the mind" and yet have trouble drawing hands.

[@unrellated]

I want a future episode to be about an evil witch who curses people to lose their voice, by saying the exact same thing as them at the exact same time.

[@ChaosRayZero]

*JINXED!* **ZAP!** 👉✨ And the only way to break the curse is to bestow upon her a fizzy, sweet-tasting brew (as she is owed)! 🤣

[@-Big_Big]

mind blown. i hope the battle is actually the soldiers charging each other and then doing rock paper scissors! with each other. showing how the main characters can just keep winning against the normal soldiers

I don't know what to think. Its the best and only anime creation I've ever seen as a joke, but it's one great piece of work. I have a hard time thinking of it jokingly, it's some incredible work.

[@RogueFox2185]

I hope that this series will go further into the future similarly to the Jojo and Castlevania universes once this saga is concluded, the bloodlines of these two brothers can lead to some quite interesting conflicts throughout the eras.

[@flamebrindger3984]

I see your comments everywhere. That's not me criticizing, I just thought its interesting seeing them on channels I didn't expect to see them in. And you're a fellow pimp enjoyer too?! Based. Hope you have a good day.

I dunno why but as a Brit, Jordan's English guard accent cracks me up. Love it!

[@theKiroo]

He is English actually, grew up there and moved in the US where he decided to drop his accent. He spoke about it in the podcast. 😅

[@lizardlenny]

@@theKiroo I thought it sounded convincing. Definitely some of his American accent crept in though.

This could be a whole series in my opinion. The music was so great not saying the animation wasn't out of this world. Amazing job guys

To see how this was made and then to see the final project is amazing to say the least. CORRIDOR YALL DID THIS!!! Barbarian King was my favorite part haha! Keep this going!!!

[@angrypotato_fz]

Sam's character's and voice acting was epic :)

[@tamlin420]

This really is a huge improvement upon the first one, except for one thing. The mouths. It's like the characters never let their lips meet when they speak, and it looks really weird. Everything else looks amazing!

[@augustofretes]

I think last time they did a lot of the flaps manually, so the technique probably improved, it's just with more dialogue and less inner monologues, my guess is they didn't want to do so many flaps.

[@AndersonTheAgent]

Really impressed by the music. Both the theme song by Micic and Shihori, and the score composed by... SAM GORSKI??

[@HeyMomonia]

I just wish there was a full version somewhere. It sounds so sick

[@nates9105]

Love it! It has the tropes, a plot, a world, character development, a villian, and hillarious battles of wits!

[@Mr.YasQueen]

I love it when the plot of the stories revolves around men and their fingers.
