The Power of Online Friendship

[@LukeOrSomething]

I USE INSTAGRAM NOW: Instagram.com/luke.arv (@LUKE.ARV) very happy to be posting again. It has been a long time so it's kind of like im starting over when it comes to things like consistent viewership (a lot of ppl weren't even notified when my last video came out) but that is exciting to me! I have another animation already in the works, but I just figured it put this one out as I made it while I was on my long break and I think it tells a good story that u guys should hear. Next video is a long one but hopefully I can get it out in the next month, we'll see.

i’ve been a fan of luke since forever, i remember the original vidcon announcement video you put out before you first went, and seeing this whole group grow and thrive past the hay day of youtube story time animation is so beautiful honestly, i’m so happy i got to see all these people i grew up with as a kid continue their careers successfully, it’s such an inspiring thing to sit back and watch

[@anjelloproductions]

It’s awesome to have such a close friendship both online and in real life. Especially them all having the same interests is amazing!

[@cornonthecobb_4562]

I've always had a love for creating videos and such, but i've never found the right footing because I can never truly find the motivation to make art with the burden of school. Every couple of months, however, I get a notification about a creator sharing their story, and it always facinates and motivates me to strive and become a more dedicated person. Thank you, Luke.

[@LukeOrSomething]

School is tough when it comes to creating so don’t feel bad about taking breaks (like I did) but u can do it eventually bro trust me it just takes time‼️‼️‼️

[@SofiaLara2005]

This video brought back so much nostalgia for me. I started watching KZbin animators back in 2019 and especially loved the VidCon vlogs and seeing everyone together. It’s crazy to think about how I was in 7th grade then and now I’m a senior in high school. Time flies man ( * 3 * )

[@hammywoods]

this was beatiful 😭 i discovered a good chunk of yall back in 2018, i remember watching those vidcon vlogs wishing i was there 😔 its so cool to see how far youve come and im glad you have the long friend friends made along the way

[@zooeyhowell7556]

It makes me happy to hear all of this and most of the people that are in this video inspired me to start digital art and yall are doing my dream job

[@blazezero64]

I realize that for since the quarantine hit. I was really cranky online at the time everyone was and I saw this friend group and if I could replicate it I was wrong, but what do you have? Luke is something special and I can never do something of the sort.

[@BIackstarX]

Y’all are actually living the dream, I remember watching you guys grow from super small channels to being a dope ass friend group. I wish to have something like this someday lol. You guys are an inspiration

[@w0rmpatrol]

I've been watching you guys for about 3 years now, I started watching back in quarantine and while it sounds a little sad to say I think watching you guys make videos together made me feel not so alone when the world was in isolation. It has been very encouraging watching a group of like minded people constantly changing but somehow still being the same people that made me want to watch them in the first place. My excitement for new uploads from you has never hindered, and I am very excited to see what you all accomplish in the future!

[@LukeOrSomething]

🐐

[@winterztheidiot]

@@LukeOrSomethingTHATS WHAT IM SAYING

[@Doodoovoodoo]

I was a really big fan of all of you growing up I literally watched this entire friendship develop in front of my eyes

[@shayjo5911]

I remember thinking it was so crazy that people my age were making KZbin videos, and not only KZbin videos but animated KZbin videos. Loved watching your videos in middle school and now starting college years and seeing how everyone is doing now and the growth is really neat!

[@andykorn9837]

This was so cool to see. I’ve been watching you guys for like 6 years now, and it was so inspiring to see guys my age doing what they love, finding success doing it, and meeting others who did the same. Im a junior in college majoring in 2D animation, and all you guys are a huge reason why I’m even doing that in the first place. I seriously can’t wait to see where everyone goes from here bc you guys are awesome:)

[@CJs_Will]

I love this video. It really shows the amazing friendships that developed from an online space

[@MandrakeRoomba]

Wow i like that Nicholas guy. I wonder what happens when he gets near Dream

[@drakeaminations7160]

2:22 I watched this when I was younger

[@Leddi.]

This is motivational, thanks for sharing all of this with your audience!

[@ritzyglitter7406]

All these people I’ve been watching for years being friends is so bizarre 😭 it feels like y’all are in totally different worlds in my head but in reality you’re just people that went through the same stuff bonding over it

[@terryisbored]

THIS WAS SUCH AN INTERESTING VIDEO TO WATCH!! It was so cool to see how different you guys are but you were connected through liking to create things. I liked this video a lot!! :]

[@yoopweekly8994]

glad to see that nick is doing good

[@marcelo169_on_recroom]

I been watching you guys sense 2017 and I loved the content, and now I been wanting to do story times like this for a while and be an animator , you guys inspire me , thank you.

[@La.V4mpira]

I was there for when Brody went to his first vidcon it feels so surreal watching this 😭 it feels like I watched my kid grow up to have amazing and supportive friends 😭

[@TheDoctor112]

Discovering brody and the rest of you guys in 2018 led to me making some of the closest friends ive ever had and im very grateful. Went to vidcon for the first time in 2022 and seeing those friends COMBINED with hanging out with brody and nick (the people who helped me make those friends) was insane and that trip holds some of my favorite memories

[@MavToons]

It’s insane to see how far all you guys have come

[@sunnysketches]

I love this so much!! Y’all have been big inspirations on mine over the years, and part of the reason I have a KZbin channel! I hope someday I’ll be able to meet my KZbinr friends and be just as close as you all are!

[@Turn4theWorse]

You’re friend group has always seemed so cool, I can’t wait to listen to this video

[@rikuhere-kz3bu]
