There is no dsmp character more empathizeable than this demon man. The concept that c!Bad might not be like, able to have any emotional foresight in a server like this just goes to show that everyone has a personal hell in the smp.

[@ttnylamb4525]

i love love the part when bad is in a series of dreams almost. like when he wakes up IN A DREAM, to only then realize what actually happened after skeppy died (the banquet).. and then WAKING UP IN THE BOAT.... i keep rewatching this it's literally perfect.

[@BeansRUs770]

I know right? That part makes me sad every time but I love it

[@elliotgandersen]

It’s called the Dream SMP after all…

[@KnightlyRadio]

The build-up from everyone being happy to Bad's slow realization of what he has done and the regret crashing down on him to Skeppy turning and it slowly reveals just the sadness and disappointment in his face god I almost cried. Hands down one of my favourite animatics!

[@hithereeee1]

i don’t know whether to be sad or happy anymore.. THE ANGST HURTS.

[@pixiethealienkitty1894]

This made me smile so much as much as I balled my eyes out. **cries in sensitive person that tortures themselves with angst**

[@gingerbells6460]

I cry the same 🥲👍

[@zeenoash.8805]

You aren't alone buddy. Before I watches this I watched ' Theseus ' a dsmp animation, and ' Better than fairytales ' a passerine animation.

[@rat_handz]

i’ve never watched or been particularly interested in BBH lore, BUT OH MY GOD. THIS ANIMATIC ALONE MADE ME CARE ABOUT THESE CHARACTERS SO MUCH???? THE FRAMING AND THE EXPRESSIONS & POSES…JUST MWAH!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!

[@myclutteredmess2271]

And now it is time to watch his whole lore

[@eyesofthecervino3366]

"Skeppy?!?" "The only thing BadBoyHalo cares about."

[@Official_invaderzim]

True + rat (His dog)

[@SmugSeal]

the hope you gave us with bad waking up from this "dream" made the ending hurt so much more and its matched with the song so well too. ...just take the love and let me go cry

[@toogether1449]

I know, I now have unmatched pain

[@Ice--Scream]

There will always be a hole in my heart were the dsmp was and this aggravates that

[@metzlean]

So freaking hyped, the short sneak peaks on Twitter have given me high hopes for this one

[@kristyharry6279]

i’m crying.. every piece is a fucking masterpiece, good job man!!

[@perezjuarezsara5379]

I just can't explain how proud and sad I feel right now. I've been around your streams for the last 3 months by now, and to see this animatic finally finished is just- Congrats for the hard work, it was absolutely worth it

[@bruhmcbro2704]

This animatic will forever stick in my brain, and I will always return to look at it and experience it, no matter how many years its been

[@diamondjackdaw]

As soon as I saw this in my recommended I got excited; I love this song and I could tell right from the opening that I was going to love the animatic, too. It's such a beautiful harmony of nostalgia and bittersweet happiness, punctuated by the darkness and tragedy of the Egg arc. And to have Bad 'wake up' once, finding himself surrounded by beloved friends and family, only to crumble as reality forces its way through the cracks? Diabolical, it hurt my heart very much (in the best possible way).

[@novacat3822]

the way you said that broke my heart- ;n;

[@tortuyette6706]

You didn’t have to make my eyes piss with that one :,)

[@ren9897]

"Eyes piss" yes. I love that sentance

[@toogether1449]

LOL UR HILLARIOUS

[@matteomangani]

The fact that the music have a really happy theme and the animatic slowly develops into tragedy makes everything more sad

[@Quackadoodleoodle]

I managed to not cry, but man, this was a rollercoaster of emotions

[@Gatozparty]

1 and half years later I still remember this gold masterpiece, this animatic and song really helped me go through some tough times

[@earmuffstar2074]

Help I just realized it's the boat at the beginning My favorite thing about this animatic is that last daydream scene when bad wakes up on the beach. All their friends are at the home of their happiest memories and it's just a bit too perfect, but we're not sure why until bad starts running and we get the banquet montage (Foolish's frame in that is heart wrenching). bads expression slowly getting more distraught as he realizes that he killed skeppy and hurt his friends until he wakes up in that boat all alone? chills.

[@Quepeww]

Absolutely adore this, so much! I’ve been rewatching this a lot and I just paused at 2:29 only to take a quick glance at the lava and it looks quite a bit like Skeppy’s face- Oh my loafs this is just so beautifully made

[@Maplesyrupfox]

I love how Skeppy in this animation is such a short little man

[@tutt3rs]

i can no longer watch this video/look at the thumbnail without my heart absolutely aching so i am writing this comment after closing my eyes and muting my tab. can i just say this is one of the most gut wrenching animatics in terms of hook, like i was there for every single egg lore stream but NOTHING got me as hard as watching this did, i was almost on the verge of tears at multiple avenues in this video and had to pause for a second or two to recollect myself to keep going. you really put the egg lore in a deeper perspective for me by putting the watchers in bad's shoes through the whole thing, it really generates a deep feeling of longing and loss and crushed hopes. God i could go on forever about this one, Absolutely phenomenal job from the both of you!!!

[@wikyoOFL]

HELPP I CANT SKEPPY IS SO SHORRTR AWHZIUHSIKSUAH😭😭😭😭😭

[@terminallyscribbling2475]

YOU GUYS!! THIS IS LITERALLY SO EPIC!! this is like the perfect bbh lore summary and i just adore your story boarding style with my whole heart

[@ttnylamb4525]

awww bbh just mentioned this on stream!! this is so cute

[@ttnylamb4525]

:'0 nvm this is so sad.. BUT REALLY REALLY GOOD!!!! AHHHHH MY HEART NOO

[@emmbee3546]

This is insanely amazing!!! I'm OBSESSING over this rn, every part of bbh's lore is summed up really well and really beautifully here!! (Also I liked the reoccurring frames with bbh & sapnap where the it gets progressively darker, amazing touch)

[@DaddySam_]

the way how you draw captain puffy is awesome and all of there emotions i thought i was going to cry

[@TheDpsOfMercy]

I love how everyone's saying this was sad or something but canonically, in my head, Skeppy is short.

[@gshshstacoshell]

i came back to say that this animatic makes me very happy and sad, but i still love it

[@raaaainbowical]

[@bawoot5400]

I’m so excited! I’ve watched you guys work so hard on this and it’s incredibly well thought out and a lot of love and time was put into it. Even more hyped for the finished product and to see it all put together,, so cool!!! :]

[@CosmicOrbiting]

Y’know this is probably the 8th time watching it since I’ve found it and probably the first time an animatic has made me cry a bit in public. This is sooo hecking good, the character designs, the EXPRESSIONS (bads is so bitter sweet sad ugh), progression of story, TIMING!! Like it’s gotten me liking the song too dude. Fantastic work!! And thank you for making it!

[@ToKtopus]

well this certainly didn't leave me a sobbing mess haha (yes it did) Your storyboarding skills are out of this world. You know how to portray the story so effectively and in such a memorable way that the viewer absolutely cannot tear their eyes away from the video, and at the end it really felt like we got to experience the long and eventful story alongside the characters in real time. And the visuals overall are just incredibly beautiful.

[@kcmurasaki2671]

i never really looked that in depth into bbh lore but wo a h this really gave me the feels for it

[@callmesilly__]

i always come here once a month and it always makes me want to cry so so much

Regina spektor and dsmp is a match made in heaven :')

[@Lueezoid]

I just cried to this from pure nostalgia

[@natalia3485]

I throught "Ou, BBH Lore, why not watch it as the last video before going to sleep." I was awaiting the happier parts. I knew there might be evil ones. I knew this video might be a bit sad, but I didn't expect this to be so sad and to cry... Regardless, amazing video. But now imma head out to cheer myself up a little bit after this

[@dalocalrian6420]

Lmao skeppy's canon height kills me 😂 but this is so sad 😭

[@sunnray437]

This is literally so good oh my goodness!! Everything was done insanely well! I love the character's body language and expressions, it's very fun how you push them. The backgrounds are also really beautiful! I'm obsessed with this, I will now proceed to rewatch this 10 times

[@figaeroth]

I sob every time I watch this 🥲👍

[@catexplosives2248]

I looked at the title and I was like there’s no way it’s really a Regina Spektor dsmp animatic. And then I clicked on it and I heard the first few notes and was like IM GONNA CRY ITS A REGINA SPEKTOR DSMP ANIMATIC.

[@greyartist6764]

Every frame tells so much story in itself and the composition is incredible. You’re able to acheieve so much tone and atmosphere through every frame too and the whole story is so clear and the expressions aaaaaa oh my gosh just every thing about this animatic is incredible. I’m going to have to rewatch to see all the details because wowwwwww
