you did a fine really good mom i guess

You did great haha! Good job getting that sleepy lazybones out of bed... no wait, wrong game?

[@ChatonKatreal]

Okay. Let me just say this song is a damn earworm. I started listening while driving, had it stuck in my head for hours despite not being able to listen to it, and it made me sing all the way home. The melody is both peaceful and…stagnant? and yet uplifting and hopeful, which mirrors the character’s feelings at the beginning of their journey. Stagnating in the normalcy of these peaceful days, and yearning for something more. At least the chorus knows those days are numbered! (AND CAN I SAY THEY SOUND WONDERFUL? SO BIG AND FULL AND SO MANY VOICES BALANCED AND BLENDING AND ILY ALL) I’m so happy this was the first song to introduce us. I know it’ll be out of order from here on out, but this gives a very good foundation for people new to the game, introducing the three main characters and their outlook on life and bits of their motivations or backstory (Marle following her heart instead of what’s expected of her, Lucca’s guilt over her mum [hi mel!]). Chrono, being a silent protagonist, made me wonder where you’d go with him. While classic, I really appreciate his earnestness. He just…sounds like an earnest, honest child who just wants to go on an adventure. I loved the exchange with Gina (is that actually her name? Or was it chosen for the sake of the musical?) early on, and cello and moon play off each other great. And oh my gosh the duet in the beginning. Cello, I seriously think this is one of your best performances yet. Those melodious lines and the uplifting lyrics “We may not know what the world has planned / but we'll face it if we can” just sound so …wonderful? The following solos are great, as I mentioned, each give a feel for the main three. I love the idea of the art showing each making their own way to the fair, and only showing them all together at the end when they sing the final line. The art in general is amazing. I was thrown for a moment at first because chrono’s hair was so messy! (and not spikey and with a serious case of bedhead) but I can see the how the reinterpretation matches up in the running image, the hair giving the illusion of animu spikes without going full on dbz. The headband helps with that~. Also I see that balloon there. ;) You can never escape the snes undertable. Everyone did great and I’m excited to see what’ll be up next week. We’ve got over a years worth of releases ahead of us! This is such a great start to what looks to be a wonderful journey. I love you all. Wait I said that already. Oh well. It's true.

[@Maidenofmine]

Awww hi to you too Kat! Thank for such a lovely comment dear! :) and YES, this song is a fricken earworm. It's way too catchy, like a giant portion of the cast has it in their head all the time now hahaha

[@204thSpartan]

You think this is an earworm? Literal months, close to a year (I think) after listening to guardia castle, I'm still singing "one, two, three, March to the drummers beat; defend! Guardia, never will face defeat, present!"

Grounded.

Cellochicita aaand there it is.

[@i.m.err0r642]

So, when you go back in time and then return, do you return to the point you left at? Or does time "pass" in the present while you're off doing things in other time periods? Or do the time gates also pass through time themselves, complicating things even further? Or am I asking too many questions when I should be suspending my disbelief because it's freaking time travel? Yeah, probably.

[@megafan2001]

I know this is really old comment, but I only saw this series today. You did a great job as Ayla in the other videos.

AaaaAAAAAAHH!!! IT FINALLY CAME OUT!! Everyone did such a wonderful job, that chorus was positively radiant!! This is such a wonderful song to start everything out on, and I know things are going to only get better from here on out!!! : DDD

[@calemx1637]

[@mynameisj9139]

This was beautiful. Honestly, during Cello's dialogue & solo I was on the verge of tears, her voice is so fitting for Crono's Mom, and she has this... spark of enthusiasm yet humility in her voice? And it really works so well. ALSO THAT'S MY FRIEND IN A MOTI VIDEO, CELLO YOU'VE COME SO FAR AND I DON'T SAY IT A LOT BUT I'M PROUD AND YOU DID GREAT And then once Moon joins in the singing and it becomes a duet, it gives this really soothing vibe of a really close bond between Crono and his mom, and it's a really sweet feeling. That whole section just shows that, even if they're apart for most of the game, their bond is special and won't be broken. The lyrics also help with that feeling, "we may not know what the world has planned, but we'll face it if we can", even if this is Crono's own journey, they're in it together? Crono's Mom will support her son no matter what, and it's such a warm feeling. (Speaking of the lyrics, Alex, they're all so good, and your writing has improved so much since UTM, and how perfect they fit and flow together is GODLY). Moon's solo following this section is great, too. I don't have much to say here, as Kristen covered my thoughts exactly, except that the lyrics, once again, are so fitting and are really nice, accurately portraying the feeling that this boy is determined to go off and make his mark on the world, and nothing's gonna stop him. I love Sym as Lucca, she captures the childlike attitude that the character has extremely well, and I can't wait to hear more from her. This section, however, makes my heart heavy. Lucca and her father(?) are going out, earning money for Lara and just generally enjoying life, but they must leave Lara behind, due to her disability. Melodiva's voice acting here connotes that feeling really well, it's subdued and... tired? longing? all in all just a generally sad-sounding voice, and it works really well and it hits the feelings hard. Melody's voice just fits the character so well anyway, and I really hope we get to hear Lara sing in the musical, because I'm sure that would be great. And then we're introduced to Marle, and Chi-Chi's voice for her is perfect, it's really nice to see some more well-known names on the channel, and Chi-Chi is a perfect candidate for that. Like Crono, Marle is determined to make something of her life, and, once again, the lyrics and singing show that really well. Once Lucca starts singing and it becomes a mini-duet between the two, it sounds so majestic. The voices blend together perfectly, and I'm so glad we get to hear the two sing together, hopefully there's more of that in the future! AND THEN THE CHORUS COMES IN AND I'M BLOWN AWAY. Seriously, the chorus part towards the end is beautiful, it's amazing how you managed to get so many voices together and not have it sound crowded or busy. It almost feels like a stadium, cheering somebody on, and that is PERFECT for the circumstances. I can't wait to hear more huge choruses like that, I'm so excited for more of the musical. And the art is phenomenal, we haven't seen much of Juno's art yet, but I really hope we get to see more. His style is so nice, I don't know how to explain it, it's just so bright and colourful, and it works really well. I'm not an artist, so I don't have much more to say other than "oh it looks good", but know that it DOES LOOK GOOD. All in all, this was an amazingly STRONG start to the musical, regarding the hype around it AND a strong start to the story. You've outdone yourselves *once again*, guys, and I'm so excited for more.

[@CrimesTimeLive]

TL;DR warning. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah I'm choking up I CAN'T I'M ALREADY SO IN LOVE WITH THIS MUSICAL AAAAAAAAA! So I've never played Chrono Trigger, and the Let's Play I've been watching and this musical are my gateway into the series. I think this musical is a great way to introduce the series to those who haven't played it before, and this song is a great hook to get people started on it. The opening starts out SO STRONG. Cello's voice sounds more beautiful than it ever has (which is saying something, because I have always loved her voice) and it just grabs my attention immediately. She captures the sweet quality mixed with a bit of sass that Gina ought to have and the banter between her and Moon's Crono is pitch perfect. They play off of each other so well, you get the impression they have a loving and light relationship from just a few lines and it really warms my heart. I'm a particular fan of "I forgot how beautiful Leene's Bell sounds", Cello makes Gina sound so wistful. And then the SINGING starts and GOD I just have chills. Cello's first sung line just pulls you into the actual song really hard and has such power and sweetness to it and then AAAAAA the duet between Cello and Moon is SO BEAUTIFUL and Cello makes Gina sound SO PROUD and that last line with the contrast between "Please remember where you began/ I'll remember where I began" just has such a lovely sentiment to it and I adore it. Then we get into Crono's proper solo and GOD Moon just sells it so well, he really was the perfect choice for Crono. I love the line "will history ever remember me" because it almost feels a little sad, like will he ever live up to these big ideas he has for himself? But then he moves on and puts energy into "I know somewhere a new life's out there" and there's a good sense of determination to the line that feels very natural and I love it. Next we introduce Sym as Lucca and aaaaa Sym's voice just makes me happy to listen to. She has such a pleasant energy to her voice and it's a nice contrast with how sweet but a bit sad Mel's Lara lines sound. Alex has the perfect gruff dad voice. Best gruff dad. Mmm good speaking lines and AAAA THEN WE GET CHI-CHI'S VOICE AS MARLE AND GOD HER VOICE IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO AIRY AND LIGHT and she sounds like a freaking Disney Princess and it's SO GOOD. I love the energy in "Today I follow my heart" from Marle, and then aaaaaa the hope in "Life gets better every day" from Sym's Lucca is SO PRETTY and then their voices COMBINE and I am just blown away by how beautiful they sound together I can't take it. AND THEN THE CHORUS! The chorus in UTM sounded amazing but God HERE. I thought MOTI chorus was impressive before but I feel like the chorus sounds even BETTER now! It's just so beautiful and grand and sweeping but still captures the exact peaceful quality the song is going for and it's SO LOVELY! The part where "I know somewhere a new life's out there if I just go and stake my claim. Today we will change the game." where all three leads get a piece is just such a PERFECT musical moment and it makes me absolutely giddy to see what's in store for our heroes. So yes, the singing and lyrics are on point. The art is absolutely wonderful, this is an excellent debut for Juno. I love his style so much, there's something very solid about the way he draws that makes me feel like his characters have weight and take up space but also a fun cartooniness to it. His painting style also has a lot of weight and texture to it, an important skill to have with digital art,. I love the way Crono's hair curls are such a mess in the first shot of Gina waking Crono up, the expressions are on point. Weirdly I really love Gina's mouth? It has depth, it doesn't look flat on her face and I really like that. The introduction shot of Lucca is SO CUTE and I just love Lucca's eye, I love the peace of Lara's expression, I love how solid the shading looks. And then we have that shot of everyone making their way to the fair and GOD LUCCA'S TRUCK. LOOK AT HOW GOOD THAT TRUCK LOOKS. IT'S SO WELL DRAWN, THE ANGLES ARE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT, LOOK AT HOW NICE THE PAINTING IS AND HOW MUCH WEIGHT IS ADDED JUST BECAUSE THE SHADING IS DONE SO WELL! I know the truck is a weird thing to focus on but it's SUCH a nice truck and the little details on the door and license plate and aaa I love it. Lucca's pose is very cute. I love the motion in Marle's hair and GOD Crono! The shading in Crono's hair does such a good job of giving his mess of anime spikes depth and makes it look like proper hair and the shading on him is excellent and look at the motion in how he runs, look at that foot that's juuuust connecting with the ground but not quite and look at how much motion that gives this and the fair is just the right amount of detail and messiness to make it look fun without taking away the focus from the characters. This is great because with all the bright colors in the fair, it would be easy to get distracted from our focal points, the characters, but Juno did SUCH a good job on shading that all the contrast on the characters keeps our focus on them. So uh, yeah. TL;DR, I loved it, amazing job, and I'm looking forward to another fantastic musical.

Get a blog, you nerd

[@cellochicita]

The first essay has been written! (Also OMG you're too sweet stop thisssss)

[@junojung3314]

One thing I wanted to note - Lara's expression. Instead of a peaceful expression, I'd say it looks rather resigned, but she's trying her best to smile. Her voice reflects that as well.

I like how you gave each character a voice, especially Crono, who had no words in the game. You even gave the characters thoughts and personality, which I really like. I like "Peaceful Days," and I'm glad you added lyrics to it. Even better, you had it from different characters' point-of-views.

I LOVE YOU OMG 😍😍😍 you sound so sweet and you're such a mom and aaaahhhhhhh and then moon joins in and dear *god* that voice is beautiful - that harmony with crono and his mom? you hear that?? that's some good shit!!! mmm yes more moon i like alex, for some reason i find your german accent hilarious. sorry XD melodiva's lara sounds so... defeated? tired? adorable? and lucca is sooo gooooood, i hecking love sym's voice and of course chi-chi!!!! marle has been one of the characters i've been most excited to hear, and i am *not* disappointed! this is precious, she sounds so adventurous and happy, yet still slightly nervous? and when they all sing together it's just *mind exploding* AND THE CHORUS!!!! AAAHHFJWGWJDKEBQKJ I'M IN A HECKING MOTI VID!!!!!!! THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE AND I'M SO HYPED AND EVERYONE DID SO WELL!!!!!!!!! cami's harmonies are brilliant as always, and i just.... it sounds so good.

It won’t be better, it’ll be contested. These will both be awesome at the same level.

[@antondeni4166]

OH. MY. GOD. I haven't really expected something like this (since i haven't played the game and heard only some of the songs), but THIS is worth the wait. The introduction of the characters was amazing, but then the chorus strikes in! It's unbelievably good, i even got some, dunno, church chorus vibes? Guys, you are amazing. This musical will make a lot of people want to play CT, as it has made me to.

[@agiar2000]

I already knew that I was going to love this musical, but somehow I did not know just how much this first full video would affect me. The nostalgia hit me like a ton of bricks, and I could hardly stop myself from crying. To say simply that this game will always have a special place in my heart is a terrible understatement. This game was the most important one in my entire childhood, and I played a LOT of video games as a child. I would play it for multiple hours every day, learning and loving each and every character, and searching for every possible ending. I even started trying to record onto VHS a compilation of all of the endings. Hearing the beautiful voices here really do the emotion justice was more even than I could have hoped. I love you guys so much for this, and I am so eager to see more!!

[@irok1]

*checks description Hold up... THERE ARE SIXTY DIFFERENT TRACKS?!? The hype is real

I’m not a person who gets emotional listening to music easily, but holy crap this hit me like a truck. It’s such a great rendition of one of my favorite Chrono Trigger songs, with great lyrics and PHENOMENAL singing! I can’t praise this enough, amazing work and thank you to everyone involved.

Back in January everyone thought this was a a miracle of a song. It was difficult to believe a thing this beautiful existed, the voices became headcanon to most of us, viewers. It was fascinating to see the amount of small details, even the easter eggs everyone freaked out about. Everyone was looking forward to the future of this project. This hasn't changed for this months and I suppose it won't change until the musical is finished. We loved this before and we love this now. Thank you, MOTI crew, for this amazing experience! . . . . . . P. S. Well, there is something that has changed. And that is the memes. . . . . . . . P. P. S. *have fun at the hair*

Third comment in a day, I know, but I can't help myself! This song represents a glimmer of hope that this series fandom has lacked for at least 10 years!

Woah, this is REALLY GOOD!! It sounds like it’s straight out of a professional musical, like one you’d see on Broadway! The art is really bright and colorful and I love it, and everyone sounds amazing, and I can’t wait to see more of this amazing musical! :DDD

[@IPerry8]

Wowowowow! I am getting so emotional about this honestly, Chrono Trigger has a special place in my heart and this song specifically. I always find myself singing Michelle Heafy's cover of it when I need it most and it always makes me feel better, so seeing that you started a Chrono Trigger Musical is so exciting! The lyrics and harmonies that you had were absolutely stellar! I think my only critique would be that one or two lines felt a little rushed/forced, but honestly it wasn't even that bad/noticeable. What amazing work you have here, keep it up! Love the spoken parts

Easter egg. Now that we know its there, I - for one - am going to be hunting for further Undertale bits hidden in future videos. If next video is the Battle on the Bridge then I fully expect to see one or both of the skelebros hiding among the Revenants. If not.....I expect Froggits in the forest Frog lives in and back in 65,000,000 B.C., random monsters in both Medina and Magus' Castle, a Napstablook balloon outside the Tent of Horrors (I think that's what its called....) at the Millennial Fair, a busted up Mettaton shell in one of the ruins or domes in 2300 A.D., and....you've probably gotten the idea by now....

So. After months of watching your Undertale the Musical and still absolutely loving it, I decided to give your Chrono Trigger the Musical a chance, and I have to say: It is far better than I expected. Even though I have never played Chrono Trigger and I know pretty much nothing about it, I absolutely love this. I feel ashamed for holding back on this for so long. I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hope this is not canceled and you're gonna continue with this soon, because this is one of the most underrated projects I've ever seen. Also, thank you for everything you do. Your work has actually made me enjoy musicals. (Sorry If this has a few flaws, English is not my first language.)

[@nutmegdragon]

Simply lovely! Really looking forward to the coming songs. The production quality of UTM was impressive, but I already see such an increase in quality. The chorus blend is very good - makes me wonder how you manage to get voice colors to match so well without recording in the same room - the art and the way it's used is very effective, the mix is very smooth, and Alex, your lyric writing only continues to improve. Keep up the great work!

Ahah! It begins! What an incredible start to this epic musical with the as expected amazing singing and artwork of the Internet crew. Got to give praise to the chorus too as there is nothing i like better than a large harmonious group singing together. From this track and what I know of the game, I can safely say that Sundays will be my favourite day of the week. Great work everyone and I eagerly await what comes next!

OMG I'm so used to Undertale the Musical that I expected the little "BOM BOM BOM" sound effect afterwards XD But OMG, MOI this is flipping well done!!! Great job on this, such a great start to your project. I would've auditioned for art but due to rules in my house (I live with strict parents) I couldn't. I can't wait to see how this all unfolds. (Also great debut Cello!!!! You did amazing!) Can't wait to see more from you team! This is gonna be great, I can tell!

[@cellochicita]

Thank you so much! :D

[@tefa7631]

Cellochicita ASDFGHJKL (Oh gosh you replied!!) Of course Cello!!!! I can't wait to hear more from you! ^^

[@zekeram129]

I can really relate to some of these lines. All the fretting about being remembered can weigh you down if you're not careful. The overarching focus on the flow of time is a very nice touch.

[@itsmattmc123]

Reads Description Track 1/60 Well, I’m in for one hell of an adventure! (Especially since I never played the original game)

[@getsmoked7219]

MattMC123 Boi, you don't know what you missed

[@slaper12x]

You're in for one hell of a good time mate

[@PhantomArceus]

Do yourself a favor and play the game! Around 10 bucks on PSN only on PS3, PSP, and PS Vita. Even the Smartphone version from the app store is passable! This is a game best going in blind!

[@masterdementer]

And finally after 3 years that adventure has come to an end. With the 60th one being out yesterday.

[@LunaticFullMoon]

Oh my god it started. I am so ready for this. The singing in this is absolutely wonderful, you guys have improved so much since the first songs of the Undertale musical!

[@junoson6452]

Yes, that is a Sans balloon. No, you're not the only one who saw it. Good day to you.

[@ManontheInternet]

Is that Sans Undertale?

[@GogoSalt]

Man on the Internet No, it's Cuphead, who is also sans.

[@lokemikaze]

what did you expect, juno XD

[@junoson6452]

I expect original comments Then again this is an MOTI video

[@lokemikaze]

Juno Son ~~then again this is the internet~~

[@wolfy-streams8233]

Ok I know absolutely nothing about this game and yet this is the best thing I've heard in a long time. Pretty much since undertale the musical. I look forward to more of this, it is absolutely beautiful and i love every part of this. The voices are absolutely amazing and the harmonies are perfect. Thank you MOTI.

[@Suraht]

It starts. And one hell of a start we're off to here. Great job, everyone! More specific thoughts on the video...I absolutely love how much setup this song, and the artwork for it, has for a lot of things to come. A handful of little touches here and there, all remaining very much as background noise for now, that will become full-fledged story elements later. Pay close attention while you're watching and listening, as there are some things to pick up on here and remember for later.

[@Ilikecatsismychannelname]

*faints from sheer overwhelming joy and excitement* XD I spent all week wondering what song you were going to release first, and I am not disappointed. It makes sense that first song to be released is the one that introduces you to the main cast and I can honestly say I already love them. Not just because I've played the game multiple times! It's the voices! They fit! Sleepy Crono sounds absolutely adorable! Chrono's Mom (I've always called her Samantha in my head for some reason....) is just perfect. I already want to hear more of both Lucca and Marle. And the Chorus is fantastic as always! So yeah, loving this already. I look forward to meeting all the other characters and hearing their voices for the first time. Order matters not! .....You know, chances are these are all going to become my head-canon voices.....and I am okay with this!

[@the__wolf5087]

Hold on, 60 songs!? This is going to be incredible! Also what a great first song :)

[@biancaandres8682]

This was beautiful. That part where everyone harmonizes after the first half, it's amazing!

[@DonnaPaella]

OH MY GOD IT'S HERE Okay first of all... *puts on a cheerleader outfit super quick* IT CELLO !!!! CELLO GO CELLO !!!!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING OH MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE IT AAAAAAAAAA !!! But honestly everyone is amazing wow. MOON'S VOICE omg. And Sym's !!! I discover Chi-Chi's voice and I am in love with it ♥ Everyone was so good, THE HARMONIES you guys got even better at harmonies if it's even possible... And the lyrics !! and the art ! I almost cried because this is so good, and it's such a PERFECT beginning (CELLO HI I SEE YOU) I really, really can't wait for the rest of it. It's so so promising. Oh god, it's so good to have you guys back !!

[@cellochicita]

I LOVE YOU OK

[@Maidenofmine]

WE LOVE YOU DONNA

[@tygerion4404]

This was amazing! You guys did an incredible job; a great song for one (if not the) greatest RPGs of all time. I can hardly wait for the rest of the soundtrack to come out, and also look forward to which ending the musical follows (hopefully not the "Kill Lavos at the start" ending XD)

[@rocheller2168]

Wow. I was worried that I wouldn't enjoy this musical as much as U:tM because I'm less interested in the game, but now I find myself sitting with tears in my eyes. While the song and meaning of the lyrics are beautiful, what really touches me is hearing the voices of those I've come to love get a chance to shine. Even without knowing most of you personally, it feels like I've been a part of this journey as I watched you grow and I'm just so proud of you all for being the talented and amazing people you are. I'm so excited for the rest of this musical and wish you all luck!

[@willowpoulton16]

HOOOOLY COW. What a way to begin Chrono Trigger the Musical! Cello, no idea how amazing that voice is. You've already nailed it in my eyes! Upgraded Moon, that voice is so inspiring! All the voices have been so expertly cast and this is only the first song! Carry on the fantastic work! And finally, the Chorus! Would it be MOTI without the amazing voices bringing it all to life? Nope! Even in just that small section, I can recognise and pick out so many familiar voices, along with many new ones! I really can't wait for next week's song! All in all, a brilliant start to a musical journey. The lyrics are great, the art beautiful and the voices out of this world. Keep up the good work guys! See you all, next week!

[@cellochicita]

Thank you so much! I'm so flattered :)

[@PhantomArceus]

I was concerned about crono's voice but they melted away as soon he began to sing!

[@UpgradedMoonProductions]

The Arceus Follower 👉😎👉 😘

[@Maidenofmine]

Every time I listen to this song I'm reminded just how lucky I am to be a part of this cast and crew. I hope you love this guys, it's pretty obvious this project has a lot of heart and dedication and full on love poured into this. I can't wait for you to hear more!

[@M4RSHM4DN3SS]

THIS LOOKS SO GOOD!! ALL THE FREAKIN SOLOS AND THE CHORUS IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!!

[@galaxyforce3468]

Dear lord, it's only begun and I'm already crying, it's so beautiful. ...Also, SIXTY tracks!? Wow. Lookin' forward to that.

[@mynameisj9139]

THE WAIT WAS WORTH IT, THIS IS SO GOOD

[@colelaine752]

I can’t handle this! Chrono Trigger is my absolute favorite game ever, and hearing it be brought to life by such a beautiful collection of voices makes me so much more excited than I can possibly describe! Thank you, Man on the Internet, for this fantastic gift to all of mankind!

[@aquamarine3139]

Note: This is super duper long. Way longer than I anticipated XD WOW. I've been waiting for the release of the first song of CT the Musical and I'm absolutely blown away. So much so that I figured it's time to actually sign up for youtube and make a channel so I can comment properly on your videos, so thanks MOTI for that motivation. I'm so impressed with literally everything in this video. I've been waiting to hear Cello sing since the little promo clip for CTM (is that the acronym we're going with? Or would it be CTTM?) and DANG GIRL YOU BLEW ME AWAY! I was already entranced by your amazing performance when BAM! Moon joined in! Your voices worked so well together that I got literal chills all over. GIVE THEM A ROUND OF APPLAUSE PEOPLE PLEASE! Also, let's give some credit to the amazing art done by Juno! I love your art style (and the little Sans balloon) and can't wait to see more of it in the future. I haven't seen or played Chrono Trigger before so I don't know if Lucca and Marle are going to be main characters but MAN I HOPE SO! I was thrilled to hear Sym voicing Lucca. I've been in love with your voice since your duet with Lindsay on Internet Remix and you didn't disappoint in this song either! I haven't heard Chi-Chi sing before but I was just as impressed as I was with Cello! Also, hearing Alex's accent as he voiced Lucca's dad made me grin so much. I honestly wouldn't have been surprised if he yelled out "GLORY TO ARSTOTZKA!" after every sentence. AND THEN THE CHORUS. Don't even get me started on the chorus. It was already heavenly enough in UTM (one of my favorite parts of UTM) but y'all really kicked it up a notch here. After hearing it you may as well have called me a popsicle because the chills that had started from Cello's singing and grew with Sym and Chi-Chi's singing literally covered me from head to toe. I don't think I've felt that many chills in freaking winter, much less in a song! So all in all, WELL DONE. You guys are the best. Keep being awesome. Glory to Arstotzka. Now excuse me while I play this on loop for the next hour.

[@cellochicita]

Awwww you're so sweet thank you so much!

[@aquamarine3139]

No, thank you guys for making something incredible. Saying a few kind words is the least any of us can do :)

[@leonoraekaterina5838]

I have never played chronotrigger but ill follow this to the very end. I almost started crying from the beautiful singing. Im so glad you are back to the musical.

[@concordiaharmony2302]

So I actyually never played Crono Trigger before, so when I heard you guys were doing a musical of it, I decided to actually start trying the game out. I'm currently on the trip to the bad future, and I'm really loving it so far. ^^

[@stephburdick]

Absolutely beautiful! Luca and Marle sound especially great together, but everyone did a fantastic job. This song is like a sunny morning that will soon turn into a perfect day.

[@eclecticspaghetti]

Wait wait wait. Track *One* out of *SIXTY?!?!?!?*

[@sparkybraincell2159]

Mister Chicken WHA....?!

[@slaper12x]

Yee *It's a big one*

[@bumblebot2458]

Oh shit, we're gonna have fun with this one!

[@Faded_Chew]

Wait, that means it going to be longer than Undertale The Musical and the Genocide Package *_COMBINED?_* Holy crap!

[@bumblebot2458]

Matthew Galvin yes it does, my friend.

[@Esmiden]

So excited! This truly was a beautiful start! I really must say that the voice acting, song and harmonies are spot on and the beautiful art really brings out the atmosphere and mood of the video! I have never played the game, but with all these talented people I'm sure it will become a masterpiece! Can't wait to see what happens next!

[@nathanpont3831]

soft words from a mother i never had... such is life

[@katieeastman]

I know this comment is really late, but here goes: Wow. This was absolutely beautiful! Each voice was perfect, and I know little to nothing about Chrono Trigger. Now I'm sure I have to play it. You guys were the reason I discovered Undertale, and I thank you for proving that the Undertale fandom can actually be wonderful and creative. Thank you for this work of beauty, and I look forward to more to come.

[@-miggy]

That was beautiful AaaaAAAAHHHH. Don't know why but as soon as Cello started singing I couldn't help but just be so happy! I remember when she was just a fan back in UTM and now she's playing someone in a Man on the Internet production and it's like AAAAAAAAA IM SO HAPPY FOR HER! Everyone's singing voices are beautiful as always, the lyrics are wonderful as always, I can tell this is going to be just as good if not BETTER than UTM. So when's Maguslovania?

[@cellochicita]

I'M SCREAMING ALONGSIDE YOU I PROMISE THIS IS HUGE FOR ME

[@thelittleghost2302]

ITS HERE!!!!!!!! YOU ALL SOUNDED AMAZING!!!! I love the voice you gave to everyone they all fit so well and I love that you decided to give Crono a voice besides he actually can talk anyway I think he speaks in one of the endings but the one you guys gave him is amazing love it can’t wait to see more

[@benmorrison1572]

'Now I get to play a new part'- everyone who was in both UTM and CTTM

[@Mike-xn2xd]

At first I was skeptic and that making this a musical was not a good idea, but hearing that first line got me and I'm hooked. I love musical theatre and they better get these guys to make this a real life show on Broadway

[@markglennong8771]

I didn't know that cars existed (the one that Lucca's father drives to millenial fair) on 1000 ad

[@danielbueno8474]

I'm literally in tears right now. Holy shit. I only heard the first song but I can already tell listening to this musical is going to be something special.

[@lokemikaze]

NEWBIES TAKE OVER MOTI YAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

[@SuperConroy99]

This, people, is why Chrono Trigger is amazing and has an amazing fandom, for things like THIS. It makes me happy that I played Chrono Trigger, and that I replayed it. Keep on going Chrono Trigger, your time in this world in endless.

[@mynameisj9139]

[@starrsteele8806]

Another amazing musical!!! Man, im so excited to be here for thr start of this one!! And may i say, its off to a great start!!! All of your voices are absolutely amazing!! I cant wait to see what this musical has in store for us! Did anyone else notice the balloon by chrono is sans..?

[@DoJayMi]

Actually the line "today we will change the game" is kinda funny when you think about it. It's referring to the musical cast transitioning from Undertale to Chrono Trigger, isn't it?

[@HTFFanOfFlaky]

"Now ill play a brand new part"

[@TheCapClone]

Literally me the whole video: “AAAAAAA! IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL!” Seriously, I this is amazing and I’m so proud of everyone who’s worked on this. I can’t wait to see more!

[@AlastairDrago]

I'd love to see this revived someday...

[@Spiritofthehero16]

Not only does this song do the game justice. It's just inspirational for day to day sorrows. I listen to it often. It makes me tear up and feel like I'm really important to this world, even when it seems full of pain and strife.

[@slaper12x]

Eyy it's arrived. *The first step of a new epic musical adventure has begun* *When's Chronolovania?*

[@mariic2]

You'll get Chronolovania when the Genocide pack comes out.

[@davydarnold3226]

This was just beautiful and well done. I’m glad that y’all are making this a musical out of this, as it’s one of my top 5 favorite games of all time I have high hopes, and from the three y’all have done, and I’ve listened, so far this is looking to be a great series! I honestly cannot wait for the whole thing to come out, though I’m going to have to as these things take time to make, but I’m fine with that. Also, I really love that y’all get so into it when you sing your characters, I feel like y’all truly become the characters themselves. As I’ve said already though, these are beautifully sung and very well done. ^^

[@bryanegelhoffsanimationtec257]
