[@sepiteria7797]

The movement and style are amazing! But my favorite part is definitely the expressions, I love that you still show things like shock, hurt, and sadness, even it’s just a frame, to really flesh out the “monster” character. It’s like he feels both a thrill from being a monster but also hates himself for it.

You know for a dragon like person who's killed lots of people, he did just get knocked over by a punch three times! Conclusion his friend must never skip arm day!

[@eros7433]

It's my interpretation that Luka didn't want to hurt Vayen, or he couldn't bring himself to. Because no matter how much of a monster he became, he could never hurt someone he loved and cared about.

[@bluedragon8762]

i think vayen is also a dragon. the 2 men are dragons but one fell in love with the human girl and the other didnt like that which is why the punches were more effective

i'm torn between knowing that's kind of an overdone, pretty homophobic trope, and that being one of my favorite tropes of all time.

[@NightWink129]

Really? Yikes, I thought they were brothers and he was just pissed that he chose a new girl over family...

[@i.nv.u]

The description explains that they're best friends, and apparently got jealous of his friends new love interest. If you're gaydar is correct, it's only a one-sided crush :(

[@guggelguggel7491]

In the beginning part, the: "I can be rude, be in a mood, I can be rotten, I can be cruel, might act a fool, but never forgotten" part, I absolutely LOVED his expressions, cos you get that while he seems to revel in his revenge and his beastly actions, he also seems regretful or distraught about it. How there's so much story conveyed in almost everything. The transition eye part? Delicious. The part where he looks like water or a sea wave and attacks humans makes me think of the stories people must make about him and how many he must have attacked. The way he moves and acts more beastly in a fight, how towards the end when the song goes "Huwa!" And he turns his head and his face looks so inhuman is so cool omg,,. The expressions and body language, your artstyle, just HHH ITSSO GOOD. Honestly this video is so amazing. I've probably rewatched it like seven times now, with more times to come. (Also Mr monster looks really hot..👀)

[@thebigbrotherwolf8617]

Is it bad or gross I kinda wanna hug him and never let go? I mean, seriously, get real people, though it's not the best way out, logically being mistreated from a young age would teach you that's how to treat people you hate. So, when he was able to show them how he felt, what he had become, he did what they did to him. Murder, hurt, never caring for emotions, feelings, life, anything... No-one had been there to teach him not to untill it was to late. And when his only friend fell in love with a human, he stopped caring at all. To only have one friend in the wild cruel world is heartbreaking, but for them to then choose those who broke and hurt you your whole life, you would be driven over the edge to insanity... The monster character (let's call him Olvidada), is, in short, a very tragic character to me, and I only wish he could have had a better life. p.s. Olvidada is Spanish for 'forgotten'.

[@AAA-cg5vw]

The expressions in this are incredible, my favorite bit is the very end where there the change in “monster” guy’s eyes back to normal after having been glowing. Maybe the other guy knew he couldn’t control the monster inside, and that’s why he looked so conflicted when fighting him. (3:53-3:54)

[@TheCoffeeCrow]

The frame at 3.29, is just 'mwuah' I don't know why I like it so much but the pure insanity and villain characteristics shown in one facial expression. Also the idea with this dragon humanoid race thingy is super cool! On one hand this character can look very human, and on the other he can look definitely the opposite.

[@RF-mc8cx]

WOW. This is EPIC.

[@bethanymarble2049]

I love how Monster was written next to the guy’s head at the end like he had become the monster. Not sure that was the intention but I thought it was such a cool detail.

[@JustaThinkr]

I agree. I wanna believe that it’s from Luka’s perspective. That his best friend (if he is in fact a dragon person like him) was now with what they perceived as the enemy (humans). I assume they are both dragon people because it says in the description that Luka sought vengeance against humanity for oppressing him. So, it’s safe to say he wouldn’t make one of them his best friend. Plus, the two are shown fighting hordes of people off together before meeting that *cough* homewrecker. Therefore, in the end, his buddy became a monster in his eyes. I was actually really sad about the ending to this and had been in Luka’s corner the entire video. I get it that he was kinda going nuts and killing people, but it seems like they were doing that together in the beginning anyways. So… the other dude is just sorta contradicting himself by calling Luka a monster for continuing on with it. I think my cheese would slide off my cracker, too, if my best friend turned his back on me and left me alone like that. I really hope they make another part to this story!!

[@owli-wankenobi3727]

I interpreted it as the way Vayen (the guy you're talking about) now sees Luka (the dragon guy). I could actually see Vayen saying that to him in that moment.

[@redribbonmagpie]

[@lilbee4428]

Woahh, amazing visual storytelling!! This deserves way more attention!! Keep it up man, you’re doing great!!

[@silverauraeevee6345]

Omg YES! Finally a “villain” with a good backstory! Usually movies and tv shows and other animatics are just like: This person is villain, he hates main character. Why? Idk he just does ok!? Now main character wants villain dead, but that doesn’t mean main character’s evil cause he’s main character. Now no one knows much about villain other than he’s obviously evil just cause he looks like he is, and has a villain-y name. See where I’m coming from? Anyway this is really good and I’ve been watching it on replay for maybe 30 minutes now! Keep up the amazing work!

I want more of this story. I honestly love Luka. One of my personal demon OC's is a lot like him and its...perfection to see that summed up so poetically.

[@TheDarlingDeer]

Woaaaahhh... Raw emotion. It sounds like he likes the power, but deep down hates who he's become. He doesn't want to be a monster, he wants power and love. Humans only ever take, take, take, so in his mind, they must be eliminated. They even took is best friend (and possible crush)! You have earned a new Subscriber, with a bell. Keep up the awesome work! I hope to see more awesome things in the future.

[@shinso-kun209]

Is it okay to say I cried? Edit: Your expressions create emotions that I cannot put into words, they change and mingle and show different thought processes that go with their body language, and honestly, this was a beautiful piece of work. Instead of fear, surprise, sadness, longing, and anger, you create terror, shock, misery, desire, and fury. Even the /smallest/ detail- Vayen has fangs too, but he only showed them when he was scared or shocked, where Luka shows them through hunger and being sadistic. It would make my day to see more. This is the first video I have ever seen of yours - I'm struck. Keep going.

Villains who grow more and more monstrous, but at the end when their once-allies (or even friends) are holding them at bladepoint, sobbing at the fact this fight had to happen, the villain doesn't back down - they chose their side and the only way to end it is to kill them. And if the hero can't do it... well, the villain certainly can!
