JOE // demons amv

Luca and Nero are brothers. Nero looks up to Luca, wishing that he could be as well loved by all. Unlike Luca, Nero's powers are messy and corrupting. Any attempt he makes to copy Luca is met with scorn and failure. When Nero is cast out, the intense emotions he feels makes his wild magic run even wilder, causing havoc in the mortal world. Luca, in a half-hearted attempt to help his brother, orders Nero to reign in the unruly demons he creates. He even gives Nero a medallion that will help him calm down! Catch them, count them, sort them, destroy them. There aren't even that many! It should be easy. As long as Nero stays completely focused and doesn't let his silly emotions get in the way, he should be all done in no time! ...right?

The amount of stress put on Nero just because he was born different from his brother is insane.He is more caring,loving,and selfless than his brother.Yet he still has to put up with all of this and it’s sad to see how much of a toll it is taking on him. HES TOO PURE HEARTED FOR THIS

I love the symbolism like Luca's wings being average sized compared to Nero's smaller ones in the 'simpler' style. Like Nero isn't as powerful as his brother is, or to represent how he is outcasted, and thus, doesn't have wings big enough to fly up to the aether (sorry if I misspelled it). Lovely work!

[@Sin_Ligereep]

Man this is so good. I feel so bad for Nero. He shouldn't be made to take care of the 'demons' all on his own. I get the feel that these demons aren't even bad and it's doing more harm for Nero to be frantically trying to get rid of them all.

[@randomworld-ik7tk]

Yes and if Nero can only get like 5 in a minute or hour how is he supposed to do it faster

[@teragonix]

I think the worst thing demons can do (since they’re kind of invisible to mortals and, I’m guessing, by extension also not physical to them) is have the ability to “fell” an angel, making them turn into a monster, since we have seen the same happen to Midnight in “Just Like You”, so yeah, as long as the angels don’t come in contact with demons (which is rare), it wouldn’t do much harm

[@_-Bonzo-_]

Can I read this somewhere? How did you know the story?

[@teragonix]

I do not believe there is a place where it tells *all* of the story, but it gives us a good chunk of which we can actually decipher some things, check Blackie Sootfur’s “Demons” playlist on KZbin or check their other social medias that are shown on their link tree

[@tunafi2h]

Hey zoona!

[@nonamenoname9322]

I have a few ideas as to where this story might be going. 1. The black bear might finally confront the white bear and point out how none of it is fair and that he doesn't deserve how badly he’s been treated. The white bear might see the errors of his ways, and actually try to help and be a good sibling. That alone might help the black bear get control of his sadness and emotionally heal. 2. The spoiled white bear becomes so corrupt and self-righteous that the Blackbear will have to have a confrontation to stop them and prove that he was never evil. The white bear was the villain all along. 3. The white bear runs into trouble after his ego and cruelty towards others backfires on him. Then it is up to the black bear to save the day and show the white bear the errors of his ways. 4. The white bear drives everyone away with his cruelty and selfishness meanwhile the black bear learns to cope with his issues. The black bear has friends and comes to terms with the fact that his life isn’t so bad. The white bear suffers the consequences of his actions and maybe the black bear forgives him.

You know that feeling you get when you see something truly amazing? That feeling in your stomach where it’s just, “this.. this gives me different feelings at the same time? Happiness, sadness, completion, emptiness.” That feeling, right there. I was so excited watching this entire thing, sad when it ended. But knowing that there will be more, happy again! Your work is some of the few things that give me THAT feeling. Happy to see, sad to see end, and happy that it happened. I hope you go above and beyond what you’re shooting for in life, and that you truly find happiness in your work. Because so, so many others do..

Man, nothing can truly express my love for this animation. Out of all the Blackie Sootfur animations, this has to be one of my favorites. It was even my most watched video last year. I always come back to it. It compiles this great storyline into an easy to follow, beautifully crafted animation.

[@BlackieSootfur]

the way you phrased that made me giggle so much it's just a passive effect of the magic since he's made of neran magic! lucan and neran magic are in opposition, so it dulls nero's magical output, which in turn makes him calmer

My favorite part is when Nero catches, counts, sorts and kills the demons, it's so catchy, watching it scratches my brain the right way. I also really like the story, I like how its not the typical "good angel" and "bad demon", in a way Luca seems to be the good one but instead he is kinda mean by expecting Nero to deal with it asap, and Nero looks like the bad guy but he is actually trying his best to do the right thing. This might not have been your intention but that's how I see it. It's also cool how you animated it in a way that even people who don't know anything about the storyline can understand it perfectly, me for example, I understood the story perfectly without knowing anything about the characters or storyline.
