Hey all. It probably looks like I've been on hiatus for the past couple months, but I've actually been working the entire time, just on more complicated videos than before! This Dionysus video was actually done to give myself a break from a pretty long video I've been making. I'm grateful that my channel has maintained pretty stable viewership, even while I've been inactive for so long. Thanks so much to all of you! If you want sporadic updates on what I'm working on, feel free to join my Patreon!

I beat ya at ur own video by 23 seconds but you typed more so gg

[@Thor-the-BlueBoy]

It's all good. You should do more of these poem and hymn readings more often.

[@ajester69ttv]

2 hour long movie of the history of mythology?? if its not at least 3 hours im unsubbing. because we all are expecting a 4 hour long video at least with perfect information and not a signle mistake in the whole 5 hour video youve been working on.

Decided I'm calling you Doubs now. Let's make it a thing you guys/ya'll. Doubs, please keep on keeping on!

Moral of the story: The god of wine and partying is still a god and he CAN fold you like a lawn chair in some way

And turn people into dolphins, apparently.

[@DIONYSUS_989]

im terribly sorry for this terrible terrifying reply but the GYATT of wine

[@camblycreeper7999]

He might be a god of wine, but it's worth remembering his punk roots as not only that but a god of Death and Madness

[@BigaloMax]

Ha! True ...this kinda reminded me of how in Taino Myth the one in charge of fighting the Storm God is the God of Yuccas (kinda like a potato but different)

[@weagleo8098]

@@DIONYSUS_989 I’m not mad I’m just disappointed

Drunkenness is chill until it isn't

[@il-dottore]

You don’t become the god of theatre by _not_ acting

[@nromk]

I think there's a bit more going on here, a theory or motif called the open secret, in a which a God passes for human and no one knows that there's a God among them, but only one person is like, something is not right here, these motifs are usually filled with signs, damnation and salvation and exaltation. In this case the madman recognizes the signs and speaks aloud and no one believes him, yet when the signs become impossible to ignore it is the crew that becomes damned and the madman who is saved. A similar scene occurs with Demeter when she passes as an old hag and people insult her. And similar motifs are found in Christianity within the Gospels.

[@Wolfiyeethegranddukecerberus17]

I love Dionysus' design in this, can't wait for him to become a perpetually drunk caveman.

[@RandomCommentMakerPerson]

God I could wait, I could wait quite a lot of time actually

[@miscellaneoussarnian5282]

I like this design more than the old one. It makes him look more androgynous, as Dionysus is supposed to be Genderfluid

You should do a video on the story on the one time Zeus's wife Hera almost left him which, funny enough, made him seriously panic on the thought of her leaving him

He still wants her tho, so he never left her I guess

I think it had more to do with saving face. I mean, if you’re the King of the gods and your wife leaves you how would that make you look?

[@zainmudassir2964]

It's funnier as they are of the same gang under same boss. In the usual trope, it's said when the goons are backing their boss against their enemy.

[@joefrew1614]

I am so glad that Dionysus spared the pirate helmsman after the rest of the crew paid for their misdeeds and let him off the hook since he fully understood that they messed with the wrong god.

[@Tophatted]

You switched to 4:3 just like you said. Honestly, that's cool. Thanks for another great video!

[@russergee49]

I love your own narrations, but I think you might have something special with this format as well - animations in your style to ancient texts. Love the gorgon sail, I don’t know if sailors actually used sails like this but I love the idea that they could have.

[@JakeDoubleyoo]

Me neither, but I wanted to come up with an ancient equivalent to a jolly roger so they'd read as pirates!

Now, what a coincidence to have uploaded this on (what I have estimated as, according to an online Attic calendar) the first day of the Anthesteria festival! Very well-made and fun take on a hymn to the ivy-crowned, roaring, wild god himself 🍇🍷💖

Your animations keep getting better and better, I can see all the hard work you've put into these videos, I've been enjoying rewatching your older ones and I always get excited when you upload a new video ❤️

[@annaisfru8772]

I miss the amazing commentary you give but still a great vid

[@JakeDoubleyoo]

Just a new format I'm trying out. If I use it again, it'll probably only be for stuff I've already covered before, or stuff that's too short to easily paraphrase .

[@LucasBenderChannel]

The aspect ratio makes this seem like the 1990s VHS recording of a Jake Doubleyoo skit. 😄

Dionysus sounds pretty chill compared to most of the other gods. Even sparing the helmsmen. The others would have probably maimed him as a warning to mortals.

[@The-one-and-only-Pyro]

I can't believe how much you've improved recently! If this were made a couple years ago or so, the crew members probably would've looked basically the same, and Dionysus would have his usual appearance. But instead, you gave really unique designs to each character and their expressions throughout the video! Amazing!
