[ Finale ] Hermitcraft / NPC Grian Animatic [ Snapshot AU Part 7 ] [ dw that's just the song title ]

I started this animatic 3 days ago haha
It's funny bc like...it seems like it takes me a long time, but really I can get them done in lightning speed
The song does not belong to me
It's "Finale [Can't Wait To See What You'll Do Next]" by AJR
I edited out the swears-
Gonna state this for a third time-
This is not the finale of the series, that's just the name of the song
I also do not own the characters
They belong to their respective channels
By the way
All of the NPCs have robot-ish names
We have:
NPC Grian (ofc)
Mumbot
RoboCleo
E-tho
VoltageBeef

I notice through the snapshot AU animatics I like that you hinted that he is still guilty of what he did, remorse of what's he'd done knowing that his doing is wrong yet lied to himself that this what he deserve or something like that.

[@fading_cinder7513]

I think this one is about NPC Grian now having to deal with what he has done. I don’t think he ever got this far, just wanted to get revenge on the server. Now with the expectation to lead, he is crushed. He has no plan, and is freaking out. But by the end he has excepted the role as mayor, and we can only see where he goes next.

[@warlandgamesandart]

He just realised that grian did what was best for him and when mumbo let him out "he wanted heaven from me i gave him hell" same goes for grian he realised that and now he's having second thoughts

[@tumblingartist]

I wonder if the guilt/remorse will lead NPC to pay a visit to the closet gang

[@leehee9558]

That is the issue of these types of plans, when you plan for one thing and only one thing. When you get there, and you completed your goal. You lose your identity, and you lose the will to live as your life’s goal is done. It is a sad truth, and thus why it’s one of the mains to cause death or depression

Xisuma: /ban NPC_Grian NPG: ``My 3000 IQ plan failed. . .``

[@sketchbook_9845]

SJSJSJD OK SO- There was one part in the baby hotline animatic that confused me but after rewatching this series for like the 7th time I think I have a theory so in this bit Mumbo is saying no to some unknown request and NPG snaps him into Mumbot. It always confused me ‘cause NPG wasn’t disguised at Grian or anything and he had all his metal bits undisguised. BUT!! I think it has to do with the glitch-itis our semi-not-so-lovable antagonist has been experiencing as of late. This glitching has been present since Baby Hotline and can also be seen in future videos like Harder Better Faster Stronger and Finale, and in the more recent animatics, it seems to be getting worse. One of the comments Dr. Siren made on this video was that NPG was an outdated boi by about 4 years. Then he gets onto hermitcraft and starts rapidly thanos-gauntleting everything and using all his energy. If you’ve ever had an old Ipad or tablet you know that the older one doesn’t have as good a battery and can’t handle big apps or complicated systems, and if you try and use them anyways they glitch n crash and stuff. But back to Baby Hotline. the Galactic around 30 seconds into Baby Hotline says “help me please” and then it goes straight to that Mumbo thing. Mumbo’s a redstone lad and he’s made robots like Grum and Jrum. He’s also the one that freed NPG and was an overall swell guy to him after NPG took real G’s place cause realG and him are close friends and whatnot. Thus, NPG probably trusts Mumbo a bunch. “But sketchbook,” you may ask, “you’ve just been rambling nonsense for ages. what does this have to do with anything?” Well I imagine that in Baby Hotline, the reason that NPG snapped Mumboi into Mumbot is because he asked him for help. He knew his systems were overloading and thought maybe Mumbo could upgrade or fix him or something. Since he trusted him, he revealed himself to be NPG and asked if he would help. But like, NPG did kinda kidnap Grian and Xisuma and Joe and turn Cleo into RoboCleo sooo Mumbo probably wasn’t too chuffed with NPG at that moment. He said no and NPG was like, “Well if you won’t help me then I’ll make you help me” and then boom Mumbot But seeing as NPG’s glitch-itis has only gotten worse I think it’s safe to assume that Mumbot couldn’t do very much to fix NPG. He was able to help keep him like energized and powered up and whatnot but couldn’t really do much more than that actually maybe overflowing him with energy and sending an electric shock 5rough his body to keep him alive might have contributed to his glitch-itis getting worse also after the pitiful children animatic i’m not sure how helpful Mumbot was trying to be djdjdjdj dangit Mumbot I wanted an NPG redemption arc but now he’s gonna hecking explode or somethin anyways I’ve taken up enough of your time if you’ve read this far massive props to you mysterious reader leave it to me to hook onto the least important part of this video lol

[@DoctorSiren]

NPC had asked Mumbo to join him and asked if he wanted to become a robot like him- But also I love your theorizing 👀

[@angelgeraete4406]

That was just thrilling to read! I like that Idea!

[@admirali.a.6175]

I’m getting a feeling that mumbo doesn’t trust NPG as a droid, and is still partially himself

[@stupideclipse]

You tend to not know what to do next if you plot your revenge plan in the course of like a week. That's why I start plotting the second I think something negative is being directed toward me. rooky mistake NPG.

[@llilac7757]

Maybe he was plotting for longer than a week. Maybe four years? That's the last time we have seen of him (pretty sure). He was plotting all that time.

[@stupideclipse]

Idk, if he was plotting for that long he should have at least thought through what he would do after turning everyone else into robots. So, yet again, rookie mistake.

[@llilac7757]

@@stupideclipse Hmmm, I see your point. Maybe NPG is focused on revenge and rustic houses, nothing else. If not, rookie mistake.

[@Dragoooooon]

@@stupideclipse I think it was that once he conquered the Hermitcraft world, like it seems he did, he would relax in his victory. I'm sure he didn't count on this guilt he's feeling. Also, I think he only started plotting when Beexisuma and joe got onto him; he seemed happy just to be part of their world.

[@comicsans9857]

This really puts into perspective about what he's done. It started with him getting revenge on Grian, and trying to cover it up. But when it started becoming unraveled, he had to dust half the server and convert the other half to NPC's. He never wanted this, he just wanted love. And now he realizes what he's done, and it's hurting him. The others go to him for what to do next, because they're mostly under his influence. So the NPC's are kinda trying to make him happy, like they were designed to. But since the NPC's are under his influence, they can feel his emotions, understand what they've become, understand what happened. This is why they cry. And when he says it's time for him to go, he means that he doesn't know his purpose. He did what he wanted to do. Now what? Them sitting him on the diamond throne, encouraging him, is like how he later tells himself (Ready as I'll Ever Be) that what he did was right. This then encourages him for the future.

[@llilac7757]

This was great! I was listening to some songs from the movie "Spirit" and the song "Sound the Bugle" could work for closet gang. I imagine at the instrumental beginning, camera pans over NPC Gang, goes to Scar and Doc missing their friends, looks at the rustic house (I'm guessing it's a rustic house), goes inside and into the closet to see Closet Gang being sad. Grian starts singing (because yes), Grian stops singing then someone else continues with a line or two. They "pass" the lines with each other. Xisuma and BDubs (maybe some other hermits as well) watch their friends give up with hoping for freedom. X, BDubs, and maybe others join in at the end and bring their friend's spirits back up. In the song, the line about being a wounded soldier, I feel that False or someone who's been stabbed would sing that part. I've had this thought for a little while. Siren, you don't have to do this or this song. This is kind of a suggestion and I thought it'd be a sad and cool song, perfect for Closet Gang. I am loving this series! Song link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4usd2mOo9GFfas

[@llilac7757]

I doubt anyone will see this because it's me replying to my own comment and it's been a few days this part came out. Anyways, I thought of a song that could possibly work for the Feather Weight AU. The song is called "No News" by Lone Star. I thought it could work for when Grian is hiding out at Xisuma's base. Mumbo could be singing it, missing Grian and thinking of what could have possibly had happened to his friend. Did he get locked in a bathroom? Joined a cult? Joined the Klan? Or maybe came back as a parrot head. (The lyrics of this song is great) Link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp62mot-eL5oh68

[@BurntToa5T]

It's like underverse kinda if you look at it with that type of thing, "It's all just a bunch of people with a different opinion." i'd say

[@creator4584]

I believe the antagonist May be something external from a character in particular, especially when given so much of NPC’s viewpoint. Perhaps the antagonist in this story is actually trauma - the trauma of being abandoned in a cabinet for so long. NPC is reacting to that trauma in the only way he knows how - by returning the favor to those he deems an actual threat and making those who make him feel something that isn’t that traumatic emotion of abandonment love him unconditionally and rely on him exclusively for their needs to be met. NPC just wants to feel wanted and loved and appears to be attempting to accomplish that goal in an irrational, but unfortunately effective, manner.

HOW. DO. YOU. DO. IT. EVERY EMOTION WAS LIKE PORTRAYED SO NICELY AND- MMMM I LOVE IT SO MUCH AND LIKE EVEN LIKE THE RED THAT WAS REFLECTED IN NPG'S EYES IN THAT ONE PART I WAS LIKE SO AMAZED AT HOW MUCH DETAIL YOU PUT INTO ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS IT HONESTLY MAKES ME SO HAPPY JEHEHSJJAJDJSL Ok I'll like- shut up now HAHA GJ BROKSI

[@thegreatlazysloth1597]

You are the reason my homework doesn’t get done But be all means DON’T STOP This was amazing and I panicked when I saw the title ngl XD

[@puppetgirl3096]

I'm early for once. That's what you get when you don't sleep. I've been looking forward to this so much!

[@AuraBird]

Is it bad that I just want to give NPCG a hug to make him feel better? Poor angsty boy needs a happy ending :( The emotion portrayed in this, how he realizes that he now has to live with what he's done (and he feels bad about it), that he never really expected to get this far and so is lost and confused on what to do next; and to top it off, he's glitching and that's probably very painful for him.

[@cer2951]

OMG SIREN, THAT WAS AMAAAZINGGGG!!! I love this song so much, and you used it perfectly! I love how you can relate the characters to the song, and make a bigger meaning out of both! "Finale" has it's own deep meanings to me, and, knowing that and watching this, it made it so amazing! Awesome job! I can't wait to see the next part! --Cer

[@limethackeray6205]

Another one down and more obsession with this AU. Please don’t scare me like that NurseMermaid.... anyways that was great! I’m curious as to Scar and Doc’s plans, wonder what’ll happen with them? But yeah lovely as always, thanks for doing this series!

[@mayacitymation4372]

I was like "YESSSS FINALLY lol, i'm so hyped" And i love it soo much, i predicted something like this would happeb heheheh, aaaahh i just can't- its soo beautiful work done uwu, I've listened to the song on repeat while waiting, and it was worth it.

i feel like this series started off with NPC grian as just a kid and now he's growing up bit by bit and its amazing

@@myownmeadow1320 I'm pretty sure he didn't get robofided, just helsknightified.

[@intotheindievods8821]

I like that this is the embodiment of the villain wins, so he gets asked "What now?" And the response is that "I never thought I'd get this far"

[@tumblingartist]

Mate I had a mini heart attack seeing the title before I heard AJR start playing,, anyway, great work! I really love the expressions, the conflicting emotions by NPC is palpable and really adds to the animation,, major props 💕💕💕💕💕 Edit: ok so I just read the description and honestly the names are just the greatest... like iOSkall??? TangoTech?? VoltageBeef?? It’s amazing :D

[@gibbous_silver]

im glad that this series introduced me to both Be More Chill and AJR

[@alyssa6918]

I MISSED THE PREMIERE NOOOOOO SIREN IM SO SORRY! Also, this is so good! I love how NPG is slowly slipping (what he's slipping into, I don't know) and seeing Wels/Hels brought back too many emotions! And your art is just getting better! Ngl, when I found your channel I thought it was kinda weird, but now your uploads are the best part of my week. Also also, I love AJR so much!!! (I appreciate you muting the swearing)

[@Peku_G]

Dammit i didnt get here for the premiere, forgive me But now Im obsessed with the song ty

[@notasillyguy]

At 4:12 ,you see Cub holding a cat, probably Jellie. Minor details like that make videos so much more interesting.

[@DoctorSiren]

Yeye that's NPC Jellie (j311-3)

[@notasillyguy]

@@DoctorSiren Btw the video was awesome, and you always find songs that perfectly!

[@kateg9454]

I feel like either the closet door is forcefully going down or NPC is gonna make more havoc, I'm placing bets on the next song to be revenge. NPC, awwwwww man!!!!!

[@darksentinel082]

YES I LOVE THIS SONG (I actually love the entire album but that’s besides the point)

[@T-mo11.]

I think that NPC Grian is a little insane

[@DoctorSiren]

Hehe just a tad

[@bruniipain]

Watching this before exams because i have no other purpose. 👀👌

[@KittenFish756]

NPG just having a breakdown and all of them crying except Mumbo who helps really shows how diffrent he is! I still think his slight independence is going to have a major part to play later! Either in favor of NPG or the closet gang. Also this, like all of you animatics, is beautiful!

[@olifoxo6608]

dude that was the cutest thing I've ever seen-

You know you wrote a good Villian when u feel bad for the villain

It’s official. The hermits have been living in a closet for months. They’re immortal. They haven’t eaten anything...
