Sam and Firefly but their scenes are swapped

Surprisingly, this project took less than like 12 days to make. This is a whole 3 minutes i animated in a really short amount of time, i'm hella happy with myself, even tho most of this is VERY halfassed bc i didnt want to go fullforce for something this long that's essentially just a memepost LOL.

Gender doesn’t matter since it depends on so much different things when it comes to intelligence you could be born stupid and have the ambition to become smart and vise versa you could be born smart and act lazy and stupid

[@toufusoup]

Ever since Firefly’s big reveal, I’ve wished for artists and animators to start swapping Sam/Firefly moments, like reliving our first meeting with Firefly but instead of a cute girl skipping around with us it’s a huge mecha taking a selfie and getting sentimental. I am elated that everyone was and is on the same page as me. I’ve never been so happy.

hilariously, that was originally an accident lmfao. When I was animating sam's scene, i made the fire invisible, but i didnt actually turn it off for when it rendered. so when i rendered the scene and watched the mp4, it was sam with his giantass flames pumping out his chest and i laughed so hard lmfao i was like "ok i have to keep this in somehow."

Man that first scene where she had the wings looked great.

[@redlox2]

2:45 Can I say? Whenever Sam is (or rather firefly without the armour) talking with us. Firefly ALMOST sounds she is warning us to stay away instead of threatening us? As black swan and Acheron have green outlines and we don’t in her eyes. Almost like she sees them as a threat and wants to protect us? Just thought (I love FIREFLY VA doing the Sam lines! So tough but still wholesome since it’s Firefly!) Analesa can do one heck of a menacing Firefly! (Despite her being so sweet)!

[@okamiman73]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed it. I totally get why they didn't do this - it would have gone viral in the community if they had, and would have been a really obvious gameplay tell - but I wish Sam didn't attack Trailblazer in that boss fight, and if all your other party members got knocked out, you'd get a different scene. Would be really cool, but I understand why it wasn't done lol

[@kevinmayfield1547]

Sam/Firefly does have a reputation for settling problems with force, you can intepret that she also attacks Trailblazer so she can just carry their unconcious body away to a safe place. All the defeated animations are just the characters kneeling down after all.

[@graffrost8057]

And don't forget that in actual fighting cutscene Sam only fights Acheron and when she goes for Trailblazer, instead of attacking she tries to grab them with her hand to fly them away from danger. What a caring wife. Best girl indeed.

[@unknown20005]

it’s actually kind of scary how accurate and realistic that is firefly and sam could have easily had swapped roles and the voice actors playing along and speaking each other’s lines just further proves that point

[@ThoughtBunny]

SAM speaking Fly's line's hits different, the armor sort of loses the tokusatsu superhero connotations, and takes on a like, a Darth Vader-esque life support system vibe.

[@LimitFrost]

I always thought Sam's voice didn't match Firefly's character, but now I can start to see how it actually sounds like the same person talking lol

[@Raikos100]

Imagine it's not a voice changer but Firefly actually just does an impression of Sam's voice to sound cool 🤣

[@OtakuGamer195]

interesting thing my friend told me who is japanese. Firefly in JP Voice lines speaks very feminine so everyone caught on that Sam was a she

[@overseerpjoe9477]

The rooftop scene with Sam instead of Firefly really hits home just how bad her situation is. There is a real chance that the Sam Armor is the only thing keeping Firefly functioning at this point, if not outright keeping her alive. And hearing a hulking beast of metal confess his despair at his condition somehow hits harder than a petit girl talking about it. Yeah, it's terrible either way, but the contrast between something that looks strong and unfeeling admitting his weakness is startling.

[@raincandy3]

Yeah... For some reason I got emotional hearing it from Sam but not from Firefly too

[@kusanagi-no-tachi5303]

Yeah, I agree. The contrast makes all the difference. Something that looks imposing and powerful is being vulnerable and weak in front of us.

Sam’s talk about burning bright until they are extinguished makes so much more sense with the knowledge that firefly is Sam. The burning bright but fast is a hint at how she suffers from her disease but still tries to do things as Sam with the Stellaron Hunters
