"He was in the way" HOLY CRAP IMPULSE THAT LINE

He let his impulsive thoughts win

[@saltenzy449]

THIS IS WHY! THIS IS WHY IMPULSE NEEDS A VILLAIN ARC IN THE LIFE SERIES! HE CAN PLAY EVIL SO WELL! HE IS SO SUITED TO BEING THE BAD GUY! I WANT HIM TO RIP OUT SOMEONES HEART IN THE LIFE SERIES! AGGGHHHHHHHH! can you tell I am so normal about this?

[@3th0lvr]

in 3rd life impulse played a great villain role :3 poor etho got betrayed.. and then impulse got betrayed but that’s beside the point..

[@LunarIsHere_]

HE'S SO GOOD AT ACTING AT THIS PART I WOULD LOVE A VILLAIN ARC

[@elaine5504]

Idk if you’ve seen it but there is an animation called campfire story | last life animation. Impulse got put down as a villain there too and I think you’ll like it P.s Sorry Rusty if you don’t want us talking about other animations. (It might be rude to do that here😓)

[@thebeaniestbeanboys5735]

I can tell that you regularly use an app with a T as the icon

[@LunarIsHere_]

@@elaine5504 I'm sure she wouldn't mind other creators being shared on her channel! It's nice to give everyone a bit of credit with what they can do

[@The_AceEmpress]

I was listening to the Imp and Skizz podcast episode where they talked about this moment with tango, and then I see a Rusty animation of that same moment. Crazy times

[@silvertears13]

Which episode was this?

[@The_AceEmpress]

@@silvertears13 ep 33. Idk about the timestamp but I remember it was when they were discussing stream energy

[@LelaniWaterflower]

@@The_AceEmpress Timestamp of the podcast is 26:52!

[@Fierycascade]

Ironically, it's Impulse's happy little "mhm!" that is the most sinister part of the animatic.

[@Tr1xxterr]

"He was in the way." DAMN THAT WAS CLEANNN

[@ElementofKindness]

That's definitely more intense than the original event. I knew how it was going to play out, and I was still on pins and needles!

[@StarlitPetrichor]

dude... this feels like something Halloween themed or something. and the *brief* flash of red in Impulse's eyes just is the cherry on the cake. anyway, great AMV Rusty. super fun. (:

[@notaccessible3741]

I love how ominous this is, and how smooth the animation is.

[@yusaki8064]

Impulse’s eyes turning red for a moment. This feels like just a little bit of the Boogeyman eeking through into another series.

[@SnowyOwl369]

I know how much impulse regrets doing it. He talked about how bad of a day he was having in the podcast. You guys should watch the imp and skizz podcast if you aren't already.

[@3th0lvr]

Which episode was it?

[@SnowyOwl369]

@@3th0lvr i dont remember which one it was but ill get back to you

[@jessy1982]

@@SnowyOwl369 I checked the ep you mentioned (33) and found it at 26:49 :) Thank you

[@LunarIsHere_]

1:12 "He was in the way." The execution of that line is perfect. The tone of voice Impulse has, the smooth animation of Impulse looking at Skizz with that slight tint of red that comes and goes- AMAZING!!

[@GingerVixen]

Rusty, you dropped something: 👑

[@fatherplatypus2316]

I've always seen Impulse as this chill, dad vibe kinda guy. This is the first time i fear him

[@DatOne.Gallia]

The scary thing is that he never changes his demeanor and is always jolly about everything, including death.

[@ShelbyLikesStuff]

“He’s dead Skizz let it go.” UHM UH WHAT THAT LINE

[@Drawlistics]

Woahh, that was very well portrayed!! I love impulse’s glance when he says “he was in the way”

[@breadclip911]

Oof that pacing and expressions gave me chills 0.0

[@sebastianthegoat4265]

wooo that shot of that red flash in his eyes was SO SMOOTH! super cool

[@leefaegaming1285]

The calm anger is terrifying holy heck

[@acidslushie]

holy MOLY the energy of this is INSANE ! absolutely fantastic

[@Foeslayer-td4mw]

Skizz’s face throughout this entire animatic is perfect.

[@hiwaga7399]

THE FLASH OF RED I'M SCREAMING PLEASE WE NEED TO REMEMBER HE'S CANONICALLY A DEMON PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE-

[@ksdragona_5583]

Uh, since when?

[@looFyttiK]

@@ksdragona_5583The nick name “Imp” - not necessarily meaning he is a demon, but it is mentioned in the Clock Tower game.

[@ksdragona_5583]

@@looFyttiK oh. I mean, yeah, but that in no way canonizes Impulse as an imp in your average Hermitcraft episode, haha. The imp is a specific role in a specific minigame.

[@looFyttiK]

@@ksdragona_5583 True. I was just mentioning that as a potential source of the idea.

[@adoxerella]

I love it. Impeccable animation as always. I adore the teeny glint of red in Impulse's eyes in an otherwise black and white animatic. It makes it so much more impactful.

[@ShadowedSky]

And so the Skizz villian arc begins…

[@IdoesDoodles]

I love how at the very end Impulse looks so manic. Like he's kept it together this whole time and at the end it finally slips

[@phoenixprker]

animators ability to make light hearted bits into amazingly angsty moments never fails to give me chills, awesome work!!!!1

[@quinnlim5104]

the "I didn't get to say goodbye" line actually hurt me

[@taytaythehufflepuff8532]

Oh my I remember this bit, but I don’t remember it being so angsty lol This is fantastic. You always knock it out of the park, Rusty! Claiming my “here before Skizz talks about the animatic on stream”

[@budgie0003]

I haven’t seen the story for this before so I was on the edge on my seat! Skizzes face of disbelief and horror are HAUNTING.

[@Elkiiiii]

impulse has talked abt this moment on the podcast before and that he felt bad afterwards but man it goes hard

[@truckerdave8465]

I love when the animations make me forget that it’s a Minecraft series and makes everything feel like an actual series series.

[@theodysseyowl]

The absolute silence as Skizz looks around is PURE CINEMA

[@THEONETRUEOVERLORD]

The music is terrifying

[@ronyahskoldenstrom2733]

Villain Impulse is not aggressive. You don't notice it at first. It is calm. There is no anger, no slyness, nothing overdramatic. Villain Impulse does not show of his deeds in a grand show. He does not make a big effort to hide them. His deeds are there for people to see or ignore. He speaks calmly, even happily, like nothing bad had happened. Villain Impulse does not try to be overdramatic, manipulative or mysterious. Villain Impulse is calm. And that, that is what makes villain Impulse so, oh so scary.

[@PassionateMyst]

Oh man, this is so well made by oh my god- this is so ominous, Jesus Christ! Poor Skizz, he couldn’t say bye 😔 Jeez this is so well made, holy crap. I am in awe at this animation

[@user-le4ub6td3y]

Oh my gosh this is amazing! I love the subtle flash of red in the eyes, and the way you draw people whenever they get angry, with the choppy, less neat lines

[@SunflowerStationArt]

Rusty this looks so cool. He was in the way animation was crisp. The whole thing is like a good guy terns out to be evil scene and you animated it well.

[@archerscars7380]

Once again it must be brought up that the way you make the lines messier (more scribbled?) to show strong emotions is a wonderful artistic choice. It’s quick and simple and easy to interpret, but it also doesn’t get in the way of the drawing. Just perfection all around

[@carinthesunset1971]

I love the line art detail at 1:39. How it reflects the emotion is amazing!

[@alalskalska]

now this.. this is crazy. you portrayed it so well, i have goosebumps!

[@HarmonyMoonbeam024]

ANGST ALERT! ANGST ALERT! TIME TO USE THIS AS A NIGHTMARE SEQUENCE FOR AN IMP AND SKIZZ ONE-SHOT AT 12 AM LATER 👹 In all seriousness though, AWESOME JOB on capturing the look of sheer panic on Skizz’s face, and then OHHH that line from Impulse “He was in the way…” MAN they both did good with the voice acting 💜

[@AntiMikey]

YOU ATE WITH THIS!!!! I LOVE THE THING YOU DID WITH THE EYE!! YOU PUT SO MUCH EMOTION INTO IT!!!

[@acornani]

I love that wide shot to emphasize the pressure, it felt so cinematic! good stufff :0

[@MeganSeigler]

Woah what?! Impulse as a villain?! It's all so good!!! And the way you animated the stretches of silence was so gooood!!

[@TheMajorGoofball]

i am blown away everytime you animate something... ITS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!

[@silverwinterwolf2064]

Impulse and Skizz have been friends for many MANY years, nothing can get em down ^w^

[@sammystuffies]

This is why impulse lore/drama fans lose it when he does things like this. ITS NEVER ENOUGH. But when we get a nibble its satiable for a month. Also you missed the best part “Did you make a wither??” “I didn’t make him. I brought him home.”

[@wills8252]

JEEZ, the heartbeat in my singular earbud really added to the tension

1:10 BRO WHAT THIS SHOCKED ME THE ANIMATION??????? ITS SO COOL AND CHILLING??????????????? WHAT?????????

[@EnderwolfSilver]

That was like a movie scene that was amazing!

[@AshArts-YT]

Welp, i have to say: when the two explained this bit from the SB series in the podcast, i then realized that Skizz also had Gluestick during the charity stream and ended up dying to a creeper. But the SB series Impulse had killed Gluestick and just left Skizz to "let go". Also nice to see you're still making time for new uploads, Rusty! ❤❤❤

[@Ultimate_nerd]

This was almost the end of their friendship istg 😭🙏🙏

[@izelthewashbear]

I was so sure Impulse could never be intimidating or even scary. Boy was I wrong

[@user-le4ub6td3y]

I love your videos! I have a suggestion for a new life series AMV if you need suggestions, perhaps to the song somebody told me, or when you were young, by the killers. I was listening to these, and I can easily imagine a breakdown of either the winners of the different seasons, or just a bunch of major moments. It has the same chorus repeat multiple times, which is very high paced and quick, which would be good for things like major battles, and wither fights, but before the chorus, it has a slower verse, which could be great for showing the start of each season and building alliances! Just a few ideas

[@N0Negatives]

You name a horse "Gluestick" there is only one way for it to end.

[@Allunary]

Man such a cool moment!! So cool to see it animated :D
