even funnier when you consider that this is basically just the same voice actor talking to himself there

You can even hear him even without him making a single sound.

Love the Narrator’s design, especially his eyes.

[@user-hh1ro1bh2]

Okay this part was just an absolute vibe. Paranoid and Contrarian are my personal faves so watching their shenanigans was hilarious. Also Paranoid claiming a little corner for himself so he can have personal space is just cute. I'm adopting The Voice of the Paranoid. Tiny boy.

[@axy_the_alien7034]

I LOVE PARANOID :)

[@bradybutler1362]

isnt that the hunted?

[@Agentjbs22]

@@bradybutler1362 nah man two different voices. The hunted is more like a guy who is afraid to die like paranoid but he doesn’t chant words and keep a man or bird alive with them. But he come up something that could help you against the beast version.

[@TaiWind]

the body language on the narrator at 1:51-1:55 is absolutely incredible, he looks like he's crossing his arms in annoyance despite not having any

[@aurawarrior1367]

I love how everyone draws the Contrarian as a silly little bird in a silly little jester hat

[@paulinelol3930]

Oh my god this is like dnd and the narrator is the annoyed DM trying to stick to the script lmao

[@Señor-Donjusticia]

I love what you do with Narrator and his 6 eyes.

[@medianinja85]

Ditto! How the eyes all sort of moved on their own was neat

[@Toon_Topaz]

Hehe I’m glad. He has 3 eyes by default (one for him, one for the Long Quiet and one for Hero) but he gains a new one with every voice that shows up.

[@Señor-Donjusticia]

@@Toon_Topaz I was wondering about that detail, since in the previous animations he had 3 (except when he was just the mirror).

I was snickering the whole time, this is the funniest route and you made it even more hilarious with everyone’s expressions. I’d love to see a part 2 or something and see how you animate everyone’s reactions to the Princess exploding into a pile of swords

[@Toon_Topaz]

Haha I'd definitely love to animate more of the game, there's just so many great scenes

[@flowerene2630]

Good fucking game, that’s for sure. And it’s so full of different routes and choices that you can replay it over and over and STILL find new things to do.

[@midnights2631]

I love everyone's design, fits them so well. The Narrator having multiple eyes is such a good idea. The Long Quiet and the Contrarian high fiving each is great. The Paranoid picking a spot on Long Quiet is exactly how I imagined it.

[@micahwest3566]

The gremlin energy here is sending me

[@paulinechaudun5018]

This is so cooool ! The Narrator being tired of everyone's bullshit, Cheated and Paranoid each losing it in their own way, Contrarian being their usual gremlin self and driving everyone else mad, Hero doing their best in the chaos of the little voices, and Long Quiet just being a cute "No thoughts head only little voices" (so proud of themselves for throwing the knife

[@TheYeetedMeat]

That's Cheated not Opportunist.

[@paulinechaudun5018]

@@TheYeetedMeat Oh yeah, you're right ! My mistake, gonna edit ^^

[@Arseniy_Arsenicum]

Oh... Thank you for reminding me about this... If I recall correctly, on the way to Stranger ending Hero and Contrarian have a little chat about throwing the blade out the window... And Contra says something along the lines of "We've already done it once... It wouldn't be as fun, if I repeat myself", because he suggested it in the Stranger route... Now I have to wonder, is there a special dialogue, in case you visit the Stranger first and then get No Way Out Razor variant... I need to check this...

[@rukifellth2]

Yes there is. :P You get to throw the blade out the window and it hits on of the millions of bodies outside who just looks back at you like: dude wtfrick?

[@Phantomcrustacean]

I love how slay the princess has become an artist/animators playground, designing the narrator and the voices, as well as opportunity for visual gags

[@that1bookworm]

help they’re all so sassy 😭

[@coolguy-rx6qy]

the contrarion WISHES he was as funny as the cheated. i love the "pissed off but rational gamer" archetype so much

[@AyuOhseki]

So I just want to say that all of your designs are incredible and everyone's expressions are top-notch and the Contrarian is an absolute delight and the high-five is hilarious, BUT the Narrator is the #1 tops with his six eyes and tiny spectacles for only one set of eyes. I in particular love the moment where the six eyes curl around the Long Quiet and stare at him judgingly. I love everything you did with the Narrator fr fr. He's definitely my favorite part of this animation, and there is a lot here to favor.

[@GuiltyGal]

So every decision creates a universe whereas the princess potentially destroys everything. I suppose that justifies how she always kills us with different abilities

[@yxorPnwoknU]

Oh my gods I’m obsessed with these Voice’s designs, and TLQ & Narrators too!!! They’re so unique and fitting, my memory has always been kinda bad so keeping track of who’s who based off body type has always been difficult for me, but you make it so easy to tell! They’re all so fluffy too! My favorites have got to be Paranoid and Contrarian, such creatures, so shaped. Love how you interpreted this scene, absolutely perfect, keep it up!

[@christianrodriguez8577]

Would love to see a concept art for each of your designs. Whether on your community tab or in a vid, they are all so interesting. They are all so interesting, specially your narrator.
