(Surprisingly) Since lots of you guys asking when did this happened This audio happened on Grian's HC9 EP9 (I make a time stamp for you) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaDWk59-pLybZ8k go check it out : )

[@manoteriuesgaming]

Well an artist has its eyes and attention on litterly anything and this is one masterpiece u made out of that wow👏👏👏👏👏

[@igelbi2704]

id really like to know what the sounds in the background is

[@MellozHeist]

@@igelbi2704 I don't actually know I just cut some part of Grian's sounds where he doesn't talk and put in between to make my own timing

When is the ‘I didnt die’ part?? I can’t find it!

[@townsville1724]

I swear if scar and his “landscaping of you mind” take over hermit craft I will laugh so hard

I want that to happen now. You said that and, and, ... yeah.

I love the snippets for Scar's words Memories is killimg the dragon in EVO Desires is the Mayoral campaign in Season 7 of Hermitcraft Dreams is when Bdubs attacked him as the Boogeyman in Last Life Past Loves is Scar and Monopoly Mountain in 3rd Life Also I love the flashes of S9, LL, 3L, Watcher, S8, and EVO Grian at the end there!

[@Val-we5gp]

Ohh okay I was trying to figure out which parts all these images represent. In the "dreams" part, do you know who the person on the left is? Like the one that's on the ground and reaching for a box thing. I can't figure it out

[@stormflower2567]

Oh my goodness. This needs more attention. The EVO flashbacks??? The Link skin?? The throwback to the Mayoral race, to Third Life, and of course, the Watchers??? And your artstyle- it's so amazing- and the animation is so smooth- excuse me while I watch this at least a handful more times, amazing work!!

[@RoobyRai]

Since you seem to have watched Evo and the other series...do you ever think of Grian as a character instead of a person just playing Minecraft? Because if you think of it that way, Grian is a God (watcher), has been killed millions of times, was there in the beginning of time (because of Evo), watched/killed his friends (3rd life/last life), and has seen worlds end. I think Grian as a character would have gone insane

[@stormflower2567]

@@RoobyRai Maybe! Honestly I think of everyone more as characters than the people playing the game. I don't think c!Grian (character Grian) would've gone insane, though, solely because all of that (except for the things involving Watchers) happen to a lot of Minecraft KZbinr's characters!! They kill their friends (often permanently!), their worlds end (and sometimes friendships with it!), and plenty of KZbinrs have been here since practically the beginning of Minecraft time (Etho, for example!). Maybe Minecraft people just have a stronger mentality than we do. After all, they 'grow up' in a much more brutal world!

[@Jr837_]

Can someone explain what is the "Watchers" thing? Im a new fan of Grian/Hermitcraft (started at S8), and im really curious after this scene Also, what is that symbol at 0:53? Saw some people making fanart about this and adding it too

[@RoobyRai]

@@Jr837_ he did a series called Evo which is other players playing Minecraft through the updates from the very beginning. I won't spoil what happens because there is a bit of a story, but the "Watchers" are like the gods (it's hard to explain what they are)

[@wildsymposiums]

oh shit now that's getting sinister. the flashes are so fast but I love the detail in all of them! I may have watched it over a few times, and then slowed the playback speed for the last bit at 0:50 to catch them all. especially love the one with pearl and scott in last life when scott killed grian, well done!

[@dinalijayasuriya3196]

You can also use the comma and full stop keys to move forwards and backwards a frame :)

[@adamhassen350]

Wasn’t the one where Scott killed Grian actually Bdubs? I mean, the person killing him looks like he has a kinda mossy skin (Bdubs’ skin) an there is also an enchanting table in the background

[@adamhassen350]

Oh, I see what you mean

[@Val-we5gp]

Omg I've been trying to figure out what that was for so long tysm

[@Flower_Does_Thingz]

0:29 very unrelated but here Grian looks like he’s in some sort of trance and I love that detail for some reason

[@luzboobop]

i love how the book actually says “Landscaping your mind” on the cover but in galactic :)

[@clwilliams9276]

This enhances all the lore in Grian's part of hermitcraft like 10% what's been presented. U took that rift n total confusion n ran with it and I love that. I feel like this season they all decided to put the slightest bit of lore in their projects that could lead to a world ending event. Grian's rift. Bdub's cult n tree of whimsy. Cleo being a gorgon. I can't think of any others rn but ik there's more. This way they have multiple options for ending the season when the time comes so it's not just one hermit causing the end. And is feel like maybe they can use Grian's rift to both explain the sudden appearance of the cult labyrinth and the sudden world changes that 1.19's gonna bring.

[@eluneshatterstone3131]

This is so incredible! It's impossible to describe how well this was made! The flow, the synch, the EMOTION! Omg I love it so much!

[@catphin8495]

All the versions of Grian look FANTASTIC and Grians face is so expressive!! I so love the watcher design. But I do wonder. Where does the Grian with the "link" outfit come from? MCC?

[@waffleprocrastinates]

before the skin he has now that's the skin he used to have. Before even evo I think, correct me if I'm wrong though.

[@eucalyptabogwater9254]

@@waffleprocrastinates Oh damn. I have began watching grian season 7 so I cant really tell if that is true lol. Still need to watch the evo series. Just to see the origin of the watcher stuff

The link skin is present the evo phase I know It's his old skin before the EvoSMP but most ppl(artist) prefer to draw his this way In my opinion it's kinda separate Him from Hermitcraft well and kinda fits >:)

to be specific it was his old skin about a decade ago or so, really old

[@Rustleaf]

I love everything abt this animatic! The flashbacks, scars voice in the background, but the lip syncing, THE FLIPPING LIP SYNCING was my fave part.

[@tri_iris6890]

I really wanna analyze the ending where we see Grian's "past lives" at 00:48 The first is his death in Last Life Season 2 The second was his death in Third Life (Last Life Season 1) The third is one I am not sure of... Creative version of him? How he is the role model of builders in the mcyt community? Who knows? The fourth is when he and his friends get into the boatem hole to escape the collision of the moon is season 8 Hermitcraft The fifth and final one.... I'm not sure, he is wearing this link inspired customer, and he seems to be jumping off of something. Only season 8 had a very detailed ending, with seasons 7 and 6 not being dramatic. (Nevermind I found it, this was old Grians skin, though not sure why he seems to be jumping off). EDIT: Thank you for the help! The Third is the Watcher Self, from the lore created in Evo when Grian left. The Fifth is his old skin, reflecting where he started and could probably jumping into the portal, where he became a watcher. I really like it! I really hope that Grian builds on this later on in the season. Good work on your part to animate it!

[@speltspirit]

the third is his "watcher" self, which was lore from Evolution SMP (an SMP he was on before hermitcraft). highly hiiiighly recommend at least going through some of the lore recaps, if not watching the series itself bc Evo SMP was a treasure. The Link skin is also from Evo SMP, also not entirely sure why he's jumping off but it might have something to do with the End dragon fight in Evo and how the Watchers chose Grian to take away while the others continued on to the next update.

[@tri_iris6890]

Oh man this is so nostalgic, I’ve been watching grian since I was around nine and I’m seventeen now, I remember when he started EVO and I was so sad when it ended but then hermitcraft came around and it was so cool to see more people enjoy his videos and to see him socialize more!!!! I miss EVO still sometimes but it feels like hermitcraft expanded his horizons and as a fan there’s nothing better than seeing someone you idolize be idolized by others
