Dimension 20: Fantasy High Junior Year Mid Season Recap

[@Eggs_hatching]

This is the first moment i noticed the artificer teacher and the ratgrinder bard were both Hopclap... I am suddenly so suspicious

[@hudsonlewer7486]

Wym I just don’t quite get it please explain Edit: oh, you mean The related I did not catch that

[@AbisexualCarpenter]

Yeah the teacher is his dad

[@bigdave723]

Oh shit!

[@hudsonlewer7486]

@@AbisexualCarpenter or brother right Henry is pretty new to the school and seems young

[@Figgy5119]

I noticed that right away and was surprised the players never thought about that. Someone stealing tech from Fabian's party, who better to give it to than an artificing older brother?

[@christiankunce9491]

We’re already at the halfway point!? God that feels unreal.

[@benjamincurwood]

Yeah, but we are half way and it’s episode 10

[@ken_cognito]

The absence on Connor ‘Counterspell’ in this is criminal. Put some respect on our man and give him his 💐.

[@connorpvoice]

Oh I couldn't agree more 👀

[@pinoytrash]

Lest we forget Fabian’s unfortunate spin during his last bard class.

[@WernerEdgar]

While this is a great recap of the events for those of us that are already Dropout subscribers that need a refresh - anyone on the fence to subscribing to Dropout and jump into this season at this point - this does not recap the absolute unhinged hilariousness that is this season. Do yourself a favor and subscribe to dropout for a month and just watch a couple of episodes, either from here on out or (better) from the start of this season after viewing the recap of season 1 & 2 (on this channel as well). You will forget to breath laughing.

[@hudsonlewer7486]

100% agree with what you said but I would just add a spoiler warning if they haven’t I would recommend they just don’t watch this video at all yet and subscribe before and then come back

[@ClonedGamer001]

@@hudsonlewer7486To be fair, it's a recap video. I think "spoiler warning" is implied.

[@hudsonlewer7486]

@@ClonedGamer001 right I think you are correct but it’s kind of just become so normalized to do something like that I 100% see someone being a little bit less perceptive or intuitive not realizing

[@leebos]

Oh, doubt and pride, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

[@eric_the_egggremlin]

I am. GENUINELY mourning Lucy. she would've been such a lovely character for the Bad Kids to interact with.

[@berkleypearl2363]

My current understanding/ theory of the main plot is that: Cassandra is being held prisoner by her former spouse the dead giant god of summer/fire and rage. The Ratgrinders are attempting to revive this god for reasons and they killed Lucy Frostblade when she refused to convert to be a cleric of the summer rage god. I think Helio and Sol replaced the summer rage god over time and contributed to their death with the help of the elven version of the moon goddess. Additionally, I think the dead god had associations with harvest and earth which is why Sol and Helio could replace them over time. I would also guess that the summer rage god was a tyrant god which is why Kipperlilly Copperkettle and her party who are obsessed with order and fairness would want to bring them back. The summer rage god was also probably the original owner of the pride armor and Fig’s arc is that she’s going to pull a Kristen and revive this god to be a summer rage god of protection rather than control. Ok I think that’s all my thoughts! Wooo! I needed to share or else I would burst

[@wastedink4059]

I've been going back a lil' bit to the first season, and there is so much connection between rage and religion as a theme, helio and sol followers are rageful and kristen is doubtful after experiences. it's all very interesting.

[@voland6846]

A "Red Giant" is a type of sun. Just sayin'...

[@DoñaRatona]

There is a lot of crossover with Egyptian mythology too. Ra and his adventures during the night, this story and the 12 gates he goes through are the basis of our "modern" timekeeping- the 24 hour clock. Timekeeping was and is still fundamental to agricultural management. Also the 12 come from visible bright stars that cross the night sky from dusk till dawn

[@DoñaRatona]

Ps brilliant thoughts by the way. Im still suspect of Porter lol

[@marchenhare]

mild correction it seems like lucy (and yolanda) were not only killed but sacrificed, which is interesting because theyre both clerics! my personal theory is that theyre sacrificing clerics and so we’ll see more clerics being killed, which i can see with the desperate situation theyre already in with the pass/fail thing and the possibility of buddys grandfather becoming the new teacher. in all, i think it implies kristen could be in danger, which is especially interesting with fig becoming her guardian since the beginning of the season! and so thematically the thought of the god being reawakened as a deity of protection is sooo good

[@MossyBear]

This is the first campaign I've been able to watch as it releases, and I'm absolutely gripped

[@cypriennezed5640]

VULTURES: YEA OR NAY? ❤

[@pikazooka]

The vultures in the recap feels completely out of left field (I know it already was, but as if it were a major plot element) unless you have prior knowledge of the bit

13 minutes and only one girlie mention? my soul needed a compilation of all of them.

[@nikok3417]

This is perfect! It can be hard to remember everything and keep track of all the details when the episodes span over months

[@TheUtanstrumpor]

How are we already at the halfway point?? Im so excited to see how this will all fit together, the threads are truly threading for me right now💀

[@free_siobhan]

i’m so happy with how the season has been turning out. this show is so important to me, i’m glad it’s in the hands of such capable and caring people

[@alexf9709]

I hadn't noticed before that the artificer teacher Henry and Rueben have the same last name, Hopclap. I dunno what to make of this, but now I'm thinking about it. Maybe Henry is helping his little brother with some not-so-great projects?

[@alexf9709]

And that the principal who went berserk was a robot, who Henry would be an expert in the workings of.

[@AbisexualCarpenter]

Henry is Ruben’s dad if I recall

[@ratatouillesmonster5446]

​@@AbisexualCarpenterprobably brother since henry seems pretty young and new to the school i think

[@leticiagm4962]

I used to think that the long title of Grix is a misdirect and actually we have to focus on the name, grix: GRInding XP.

[@misthallery]

the people are begging for more Oisin... so curious to see the true motivations of all the Rat Grinders!!

Summarizing all that's happened in this incredibly packed season must've been a gargantuan undertaking! Hats off to D20 for that

[@lycanarachnid2435]

I hope Mazey will be okay as she is one of my favorite sweet characters! That and Mary Ann joins the group like they have been wanting as one of the less bad ones of the rat grinders.

[@FrozenEnoch]

Can't believe that this is the first time I'm noticing that Ruben and Henry have the same last name. Did the players ever mention it?

[@Eramiserasmus]

Love this recap because a lot of things got lost in the chaos that I forgot about.

[@ef1876]

I simultaneously want this season to last forever and to end immediately so the bad kids can catch a break

[@pjenner79]

I find it interesting that Galeer is having such good luck while Fig is having such bad luck.. hmmm

[@dan4145]

Ah yes, I totally remember Squeem! That one time when he said squeeeEEEEeeeem, I felt that

[@huntergallant8054]

Loving this season so far! ❤ Can't wait to see where it goes!

[@DMTayag]

Started watching D20:FH back in September and binged everything to get caught up. What an amazing show, lovely cast, great DM and production support. Excited for the second half!

[@emunknown3395]

Um, actually Fig Disguised as Wanda didn't misty step away, she dimension door'd off the bus

[@chickensoup1025]

I've seen each of these episodes AT LEAST twice So I didn't need this lol but of course this was wonderful and very well done!!!

[@sonjas.3450]

This is so helpful and detailed, so much information in such a short/efficient amount of time, thank you dropout :D

[@novuspatriarch]

Feels like a lifetime is left in the story not sure how there is only 10 episodes left.

[@tmmle7]

Knowing Gilear, he probably did some kind of demonic pact by accident. He is too fortunate this season.

[@thehomie6059]

10 episodes, man waiting till the season is done to binge the whole thing is torturous

[@sdval7171]

Ummmm Gilear is having unusually good luck while Fig is having bad luck?!?? What kind of deal did she MAKE bro

[@heyitsgreat]

WAIT THE ARTIFICER TEACHER AND RUBAN HAVE THE SAME LAST NAME!

Spring break! I believe in you!

Important details that I need answers about: in the latest episode in one of the map pans ends on Fallinel at 54:50 or so there’s a very distinct island next to Fallinel that we don’t have a name for and is not accounted for on the official map of spire what is this place and does it play a role And what we have left of this season?

[@cyanscholar5498]

Not here to judge, idk if Brennan's voiceover just had a strange mic, but it almost sounds like this could be an AI voice clone of brennan

[@creditroll176]

i noticed that too! it almost certainly is ai, which is weird for dropout

[@sandycheeks5eva]

Thank you for this! I can't watch this season because it's triggering for me, but I've been so curious.

OOOHHHH, WE’RE HALFWAY THERE!!!!

Omg thank you dropout! Was struggling to keep track of everything

@@AbisexualCarpenter look me in the eyes and tell me Fabian doesn’t have a trust fund for his signifiant other/betrothed/spouse or whatever. Hallariel would be SCANDALIZED if Fabian’s partner had to WORK for a living

hm. time quangle mention?? quanglists u may convert me yet

[@DoñaRatona]

Ha! Of course it's going to be important. Aguefort mentioned it once as the aim of his vacation and we never hear about it again. Classic ala Chronomancy of the first year.

[@phoebecereal4108]

8:33 Me finally realising why Kristin is named Kristin. It literally just sounds like Christian. It only took 2 1/2 seasons.

[@zeedar412]

What a season!

[@pygmysnake4623]

i cant tell if this is just weird audio or if thats an AI brennan lol

What does Cassandra Whisper to Kirsten?

[@liamkearney2017]

Um, Actually Fig used Dimension Door to teleport out of the bus, not Misty Step

[@wastedink4059]

who made brennan say tiny like that

[@hasmhas]

It's probably too late to change, but she casts dimension door, not misty step.

[@ianrivers7923]

Okay two things: How many more episodes? And when will they make a scripted animated series out of Fantasy High?

[@ExactlyMC]

MIDSEASON??? ALREADY???

[@greenredblue]

I am very sad that Squeem's pronouns weren't (squeem/squeem).

[@JesterLind]

This copy read could've benefitted from another take. Brennan is fantastic at bringing big spontaneous energy to moments requiring an emotionally intense delivery. Some additional takes, and/or an in house rehearsal would have made for a performance worthy of the written material. Without these measures the performance is less than the talent is capable of, and unworthy of the performances seen during the run of the show. Brennan is worth it.

[@HEX_17]

Why does this sound ai generated?

[@Atmatan]

Spoilers wont make me sub.
