[@demifallen1080]

Only took him a year

[@toysoldierkelsey]

"Oh... you're early... I should have tidied up first..." *Shudder*

[@GinoSoldier]

And imagine how it hits now!

[@kariissmol9172]

@QuinnOfAebradore well, at least the soul in the body isn't an absolute poweobsessed asshole anymore

[@uhhok8296]

The way this is cut along with the song makes it seem like the M9’s adventures are like a summer trip a bunch of friends took where all this shit happened to them and were looking back on it like it was a scrap book. Very good though!!! Thats a compliment, it starkly contrasts with the imagery in a fun way

[@michaelrumsey7932]

I mean it hasn't even been a year yet, so like could be!

[@pazz]

It really did just start as a road trip to get their friend (Fjord) to school (The Soltryce Academy). It really could have been the plot to some coming of age young adult novel.

[@FoxHound-ut1hu]

I guess jesters sketch book Will pretty much be their scrapbook.

[@chiangyorange9511]

each panel,,,, EACH FRAME IS COLORED oh my god hold on imaSKDHDHJDBFJS you have more willpower than any of us im losing my mind

[@ChromeToasterInc]

Glad to see that the greatest villain of the series made an appearance at 1:17

[@vaguelydeltarunethemedsocks]

I WAS GONNA LEAVE A TIMESTAMP OF MY FAVORITE PART BUT THERE WOULD BE TOO MANY PARTS I LOVE THIS SO SO MUCH!!!!!!! THIS IS BREATHTAKING

[@benjoe1993]

Yeah, it would be just 125 timestamps...one for every second :D

[@Laughing_Dragon]

I'll do it for you 0:00 - 2:05 worst part is before 0:00 , and after 2:05 because its not existent there.

[@charliescheirmann2926]

1:13 is made by Fjord's expression

[@maniacmagge2568]

at first i was "oh neat another CR amv".... then i was all *"AN AMAZING RECAP OF EVERYTHING AAAAAAND AN AMV"*

[@jbpeony7872]

The quality of each and every frame is phenomenal

[@noahwilson7497]

I love how everyone’s just like “nope” at 1:13

[@Joseph4997]

1:13 guess we'll just leave town now

[@nickthedreamer4434]

1:17 AH YES...THE MOST DANGEROUS OF FOES...THE CHAIR!!

[@dekkard4982]

This is really really well made, I hope the people at critical role get to see this video

[@sivsi6598]

Someone please tell me how tf this hasn’t gotten more attention like holy shit, this is fucking amazing oh my god. Some of my fav scenes have to be yasha in the field, jester gettin a kiss from mama, and Bren with Ikithon but honestly every panel is pure gold. Esp love the way you incorporated movement into some of the frames

[@mooshy2]

I can tell you exactly why. Go to every single one of your most beloved critical role animations, and then take a look at the subscriber count. This video included. Critical Role fans are absolutely ABYSMAL at showing support to their animators. The views are always massive, but the likes and the subscribes are pretty much the WORST ANY FAN BASE on the internet could POSSIBLY BE. The “critter hug of death” is a fucking lie, not one single critter actually cares about supporting artists. Seriously, go check it out. Look at all your favorite animators, and then look at the views VS the subscriber count. It is shocking, upsetting, and depressing.

[@rhiflux]

@@mooshy2 yeah it sucks but it's not exclusively a Critical Role thing. I see the exact same thing happening for people who make similar content for MBMBAM, The Adventure Zone, Game Grumps, and more. If it ain't their beloved franchise then they don't care

[@matthewlaing5245]

This feels like we’re looking at the demo reel for the Mighty Nein’s Animated series - just so good!

[@facistdic]

And now that we live in the future, we can have the headcannon of them using this vid to get the MN series greenlit

[@beansbees]

I’m losing my mind over this!! every individual frame is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@iidalus]

HOLY HELL this is gorgeous!!!! that shot of molly with the shadow going over him is *chefs kiss*. you can really tell how much love went into this, wow wow wow wow

[@andrewbernal9957]

Video title: devil never sleeps Lucien: doesn’t sleep

[@hahano6054]

Molly's expression is a delight in almost every frame. Look at 0:37! It's almost like he's whining about being bored XD

[@PattPlays]

Never would have noticed!

[@meechiejamerson]

1:37 hits different

[@PattPlays]

@@meechiejamerson looossseyyannnnn

[@kylefeeney7225]

how does one person fit so much backstory without completely spoiling the entire show in one video?

[@faithsweet5817]

Yes, yes, including the most sinister villain of campaign 2: *the chair*. Very nice. *Chef's kiss*

[@kazastrophy]

OH MY GOD EVERY SINGLE PICTURE IS SO FRICKIN BEAUTIFUL IT'S AMAZING AND FJWLJWLJDLWKKEKF

[@coleweaver7286]

Really puts into perspective how much has happened and this isn't even all of it

[@raine-time]

Imagine having such cool fans they turn your wacky dnd adventures into art

[@gab-le5mf]

im definitely not far enough in cr c2 to watch this whole thing but i did anyway cause this is just that stunning

[@moththefly]

AAAAAAAA I love the style I love the pacing I love the music choice I love everything about it!! It even has comedic aspects (THE CHAIR!! THEIR FACES WHEN THE PLANK KING LIFTS AVANTIKA!!!) TOO GOOD

[@alycias7345]

omg i thought that was yasha i’m going to go die now ok bye

[@centwawlkk9415]

i can’t imagine how long this must’ve taken it has so much care put into each and every frame, its incredible i love it SO MUCH

[@pj-yh2cj]

WTF THIS IS SO GOOD!

[@michalinacielinska2332]

Fun fact - every screenshot you might take during this video is wallpaper-friendly

[@elijahh2220]

This is gorgeous! Also, I really love how you draw Tiefs! And how you matched up the lyrics is genius in so many places... "my daddy's never coming home" "changing her face like a shadow on the gravel"

[@PokeBattlerJaze]

The fact this only has 89k views is actually criminal

[@Umbershift]

This is absolutely INCREDIBLE! Also, that part at 1:38 with Molly made me double-check when this came out. Amazing! I love the way you do colors!

[@bdletoast09]

That's the funny thing really. Despite his early demise, Molly's influence on the Nein stayed so strong that even a video that came out before *The Reveal* placed his shadow still looking over them.

[@alycias7345]

i love this so much i’m crying

[@alycias7345]

rewatching bc this is amazing

[@alycias7345]

again

[@TheDamocles74]

Seeing Jester and Molly sing together made my heart happy

[@va_simp5418]

That is officially my favorite CR animatic. There are a lot of really good ones but this is just perfect. Every charachter is drown amazing. And vibes are exactly right. I hope the new Mighty Nein show would look like this.

[@sarap9431]

THIS IS MY FAVORITE THING! this song was in one of my favorite movies, also for a travel montage. I love this so much!

[@holyshades6462]

This is one of the best animatics I've seen for critical role.

[@Jx2408]

This is amazing!!

[@blairsanne]

This is absolutely phenomenal

[@timbothany06]

EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS GORGEOUS!! But I gotta say, my favorite detail about this is the fact that you could actually see Caleb get healthier and healthier each panel and it shows how he progressed throughout the whole story, stunning detail!

[@supertdude213]

This is really cool. Thank you for the time and effort you put into it.

[@stormsurge9962]

1:13 Yeah the M9’s faces sum that up pretty well.
