Not really sure it's 20 mins. Feels like he did go back in time. Unfortunately, he thought he went to the wrong time so he came back to the present and confused it with 20 mins. He might have used the gathered energy to go back to the past, then to the present, then finally tried to go back to the past. That's 2 full trips and the final one probably shows that not enough energy remained.

The sad thing is. There's a theory that it did actually work. Because in the scene where Yugo forced the Eliacube to activate, they teleport to a storm ridden plane with what appears to be Ogrest in the background. And from what is known of the events before Nox's family's death, it would coincide with the time where it happened since it was revealed that his family was killed by Ogrest's Chaos. But in the heat of the moment and the obsession with getting Yugo's wakfu, he teleported back to the present and lost all that wakfu from the going back and forth which is why he only had 20 minutes left in the machine.

It is far more likely that he wasn't crazy, but that (Quilby or Oropo) was talking to Nox through the Eliacube to manipulate him and they probably siphoned a lot of the collected wakfu to their separate dimension to facilitate their plans. I'm less inclined to believe that he was too deranged to notice he unknowingly blundered time magic than he was too naive or inexperienced with Eliotrope magic and tools to notice the siphon that hindered his ability to go back further.

[@PraetorianW0LF]

Nox's character is one of the best examples of incredible willpower! Force majeure, the toy of the gods, destroyed his life. But instead of just surrendering in the face of that which is higher than the mortal’s understanding, he, as a USUAL man, subjugated the power of the gods, defeated dragons and successfully fought with whole countries alone. At the same time, incredibly suffering all these years, but stubbornly moving towards his goal. Surprisingly, this character very clearly shows what the willpower of an ordinary person is capable of in a seemingly hopeless situation when the whole world and even the gods themselves are against you.

I love that line “I’ll try and do it right this time around” and “Because a part of me is dead and in the ground.” It fits Nox so well. And that through line of “If you could go back and fix your mistakes.” which I’m sure everyone has felt at some point in their lives. If only we could undo some terrible mistake. Which is what makes Nox so sympathetic. A mistake so terrible he might as well be dead if he didn’t have that desperate hope of making it right.

[@KHMDarkness]

Nox is easily one of my favorite villains in any show. He is just so well done! Having an interesting back story, a tragic past, a good reason for being who he is now and why he is doing what he has been doing for centuries. He even looks just so damn cool! And his logic was sound, too! It gave him the push to be able to do all of the horrific things he needed to do to have his spell work. And the best part? He technically WINS. Think about it. He beat everybody in the first season. He got all of the energy he could get for the cube, and his spell *actually works!* he proved everyone wrong and had his spell work! They said it would tear the universe apart, yet it didn’t! And yet... it only reversed time by 20 minutes. Centuries of collecting energy... for 20 minutes. And when he realized it, that his spell technically required more energy than he could ever hope to collect, that he had done such horrific things and forever be unable to undo them - which is, again, one reason why he was able to convince himself to do such things -, it broke him. So much so that he apologized, crying, and left to let himself die on the graves of his family... Nox has beaten everybody. He has overcome every battle, but he lost what mattered most. All of that makes Nox one of the best villains in any show. It is a shame that we won’t ever see him truly come back though. Like through a sort of redemption arc where he could try to make up for everything he has done, thinking it’s to make up for what he did for his family’s sake, and to be able to face them one day when he dies. That would have been interesting to see in the latest season of the show... God, I hope they make another season. >.>

[@ecthox-1mork909]

Stephen King: "Nightmares exist outside of logic, and there's little fun to be had in explanations; they're antithetical to the poetry of fear.” I think a similar logic applies to such tragedies as Nox's - the fact he can't redeem himself because of his death is what makes the sadness and heartbreak of it stay with one.

One of the best villains with their backstories. He just wanted to get back to his family. And killed a lot of people to get there. Also one of the saddest defeats. All that pain and destruction for nothing. This is an awesome vid, dude. Really captures the moments.

[@shovknight3008]

It’s not often that we see a villain that is just as determined as the hero usually is.

[@NeedsContent]

People say Denerys is tragic character. They obviously haven't watched Wakfu.

[@kinggidorah6910]

Both were tragic, but Nox was jusn on another level

[@steamworkfox4564]

So I watched this video before I watch the Actually Wakfu show. Sincerely I thought Nox was a Underdog hero, a machine built by to help (someone) but after that person died he lost his mind, and after several defeats laying broken n battered he was close to his goal. And I wasn't that far off. My god Wakfu wrote Nox so well! He is genuinely the best part of the show. N the fact I was so close just scenes alone tells how great the character was

[@timothycarney9652]

@Soniku11 Actually he is a cyborg- remember the scenes where he sicks those mummies on the dragon, I don't know the game lore, whether they are some twisted zombies, or just disturbing automatons or some even worse hybrid, but Nox basically turned himself into one of the same. That iron man like glowing hole in his chest is too deep, and in the final scene we see of him is his family's graves with his armor in a pile of dust. some of his scenes in his clock lair have wakfu being poored into his chest hole, he is basically a mummy kept walking around via magic and clockwork, thats part of the reason his movents are so jerky at times. He is basically like that cyborg/zombie guy from the first Hellboy film, but animated by the magic he gathers so he can keep gathering more for his big plan.

[@steamworkfox4564]

@@timothycarney9652 lol that's why I said close :) he was this Underdog Villain who desperately wanted to save the family he once had. From this desire he augmented his entire being for this singular goal. Really damn good story, just was never a fan of the show.

[@UserPierro]

in my opinion, nox is the best villain in Wakfu, with a very sad and very strong story, he doesn't do any harm because he wants to, it's because he wants to reunite with his family

[@ecthox-1mork909]

In my opinion, Nox is one of the best villains in ALL OF western animation, period.

[@TrueBladeSoul]

I mean if he succeeded he would have undone all his crimes

[@NattyNuke]

By far the absolute best character in anything I’ve seen beside Red Dead Redemption. Noximillion truly did not deserve what happened to him. At the end of season one, it was evident that he really didn’t care if everything lived or died, if it worked, his life was perfect again, if it failed, the suffering ends.

[@Boarofwar]

Rest in peace Nox, you are finally with your family.

[@TheMorbose]

I have witnessed a perfect tribute, the song you chose was without a doubt the best for this character.

[@kaedo-2740]

This song fits Nox so good, it's like it was made for him only.

[@ebrannock8139]

I'll be honest I watched Wakfu because of this character. I saw the first episode and the second he appeared on screen and started talking I got hooked. It's been a few years and most of the details of the show have slipped from my mind but not Nox. He deserves way more credit in pop culture.

[@echo1736]

I think the music fits perfectly for him as he doesn't accept that he lost his family forever and thinks of going back in time to be with them and when the song ends it truly is over as he realizes that everything he has done was for nothing his plans of going back in time to be with his family failed and only sent him back 20 minutes realizing that everything was for nothing.

[@madsvigan2898]

One thing never mentioned. Doing the end title of season 1, we see noxs armor on his family grave. Its because when he teleported away, was because the 200 years was now cathing up to him, as he quickly returned to his family where he turned to dust.

[@jackambrose2762]

When I first saw Nox I was like “So he’s basically just an evil Iron Man.” After time, I thought “Holy Crap, this guy is a freakin legend!”

This tribute actually got me to re-watch Wakfu. And the song is great. Thanks a lot!

[@mewtube2425]

This is literally the perfect amv for Nox I mean it’s like this song was built for him

[@mikelshort9150]

The hero and the villain are equal in their reason for fighting. Nox lost everything he cares about and is trying to get it back. Yugo in turn is trying to preserve everything he cares about. That is one of the reasons why Nox is such a great villain.

[@ecthox-1mork909]

Very nice video. :) :) I love the choice of song - I'd never heard about 'Wakfu', but having just now at the vid's end looked up Nox's story on Wikipedia, it seems appropriate to me that he'd have a song like this. Melancholic, about denying the overwhelming belief that things are over and done, and sounding to me when I watched the vid more like it was meant for a near-broken hero struggling against impossible odds than for a psychopath. :) :) This vid certainly has a lot of action sequences, and I love the way the fast-cut ones have so much colourful animated action and content crammed into them. :) :) I love how Nox switches from those unsettlingly saucer-wide robot eyes to angry eyes, and the clips where he jutters like a rusting machine or where he twitches madly like at 2:19, really do give me the impression that he's insane. :) Once again, you've managed to create a Villainous Breakdown in the vid's narrative, with the footage of Nox getting frustrated in front of the cube and seeming to scream at it - true to the song's hero-vibes, that clip's combination with "Don't get caught up in yourself" really makes it seem like that's Nox facing his breaking point and finding his resolve again, with how the footage of him using his powers and fighting follows. And, knowing his backstory, I rather love how this vid ends with him atop the cog-pile (I'm assuming that's probably the moment he discovered he could only go back in time twenty minutes), and the way his damaged face's white-cracked, glassy look around the eye makes it look like he's crying. :) :) I wouldn't have minded some footage of his backstory appearance though, in spite of its relevance to his quest and the song.

This is your most popular video Arkham and it deserves it like most of your tributes and this one is specifically my most favorite due to the relatability of Nox and how the song fits him so perfect and it really makes people who don’t understand a character from first hand and shows their feelings all you have to do is pick the right song that fits and you have done just that perfectly his story and his motives was so much better than most characters and Ik im repeating the same thing but in different ways of saying it but I just can’t fathom on how perfect this just fits

Nox is such amazing villain, he has a reason, the power and actually causes issues the brotherhood of the tofu. I even still feel terrible every time I see him die... their is no other anime that can make someone feel if that. Prove me wrong

[@Steve_V_Raglan]

No one still can't after three years

[@MAJchakka]

Amazing video! I didn’t know who this was but he looked awesome after watching this. Did some research and am saddened after discovering his story.

[@TheUrizen]

He maybe could've won if he had aimed even higher. The Sadida tree wasn't enough, but maybe with the Dofus Ogrest had at the time, or reuniting the dragon ones, he could've gone back more than 20 minutes.

[@The_Court_Poet]

@@TheUrizen The thing is. There's a theory that it did actually work. Because in the scene where Yugo forced the Eliacube to activate, they teleport to a storm ridden plane with what appears to be Ogrest in the background. And from what is known of the events before Nox's family's death, it would coincide with the time where it happened since it was revealed that his family was killed by Ogrest's Chaos. But in the heat of the moment and the obsession with getting Yugo's wakfu, he teleported back to the present and lost all that wakfu from the going back and forth which is why he only had 20 minutes.

[@comradedog9125]

You gotta feel bad for the guy he stole the lives of countless and dedicated 100s of years to fixing everything. To only in the end go back 20 min.

Cool tribute. Really like the song choice and editing. Keep up the good work. 👍

[@gigaphoton376]

The first season's finale is such a rollercoaster.

[@Sramdnd]

for those who do not know the wakfu lore his plan worked but a being who was trapped in a universe took advantage of the energy he created. in conclusion: nox succeeded but an external event caused its failure

[@evernewb2073]

when the villain you introduce in Episode 1 is more menacing and *real* than every other threat in the series combined. I've got no idea who wrote what parts of what (this was all based on a game so there are probably a LOT of writers involved in the body of work, likely even several layers of them on specific parts) but whomever was responsible for season1 and the content it was based on was either far more skilled or simply not toiling away at their daily grind adding on fluff content to sell merch. I'd compare him to the other villains but quite frankly *I do not remember their names* because there just wasn't enough character behind the plot device to attach a name too.

[@mustapha896]

Qilby was like 9/10 too if u understand his backstory

[@scribblerstudios9895]

Oropo was alright as well when you consider his background. Especially having three sets of memories. His own, Yugo’s, and all the memories of his fellow Eliatropes who fell before him. Hard to blame him being a bit messed up when you combine that with the immense power he held

[@anthonyortiz350]
