I FINALLY FINISHED THIS, PLEASE TAKE IT FROM MY HANDS!
Ah! I’ve been chipping away at this for a few months now, in between other projects, so it’s taken significantly longer to finish than normal. PLUS I actually integrated a few moments of actual animation this time and not just boards, so that added to it. It really was mostly the inconsistency at which I worked on it, though! Normally I LOCK IN and fixate on one project at a time, but I had to squeeze room in for this one.
Worth it though! I learned SO SO much from this one, I’m very happy to think of how my workflow can improve from here. I also had fun! Except for coloring it, since I truly, truly despite adding flat color to things, it is so boring- and bad for my wrist!
Anyway. YES this is a song from Victorious LMAO, but you know what’s so wild is that I got this idea in the first place when one day I thought to myself, “Hey, remember that solo song from Victorious with Liz Gillies? I remember that being really good, let me listen to it again!” Only to find out that the studio recorded version kinda fuckin’ SUCKS? How they managed that, I have no idea, but the production is bare bones and the vocals are tamed WAY down compared to the show-version. But even the show version didn’t slap as hard as I remember!
Thankfully, the KZbinr @ ConnerMainChannel made a REALLY GOOD remix of the song, even mixing in the better vocals! As soon as I heard this version, I was inspired to actually make this animatic. So thank you so much for making this remix! When I first found it, I had it on repeat for wayyyy too long.

AHH but let me talk about the animatic, itself!
First, let me say, I cannot believe that we’re where we are in canon right now. These two love each other so dearly, it’s crazy. I am so happy to see so many smiling Kacchans, he’s been so open and free, I love him! I’m waiting for Izuku to let the weight fall off his shoulders, next. He’s going through so much, I’m just waiting for it all to come out and for him to be able to smile and be open, too. I have high hopes! We’ll see how it all plays out.
Despite saying all of that, this particular animatic I wanted to focus on Kacchan’s initial resistance against Izuku. How he pushed him away their whole lives, denying them both the connection that they cannot sever, and basically just pretended that he didn’t care about Izuku, or that Izuku couldn’t possibly understand him the way that he does.
But slowly, Kacchan can’t resist their bond any longer, and he accepts that Izuku not only KNOWS him, but is the one who knows him BEST. Afterall, Kacchan is the one who knows Izuku best, too (and in current canon, he’ll make SURE everyone knows it, which is so funny I love you Kacchan).
It’s all self-explanatory, of course. I just love their relationship and its little nuances so! Also tsundere Kacchan will always be charming, it adds to his princess-ness.
And you’ll notice my shameless self-promotion in the beginning and end of the video, where I advertise my webcomic again! Please read it if you have the time! It’s very important to me, and you might like it- especially if you like cartoon animals haha
“Presto & the Gang” is free to read on its official website OR Tumblr page (which, between you and me, the Tumblr actually has the pages in higher quality, since the website needs lower res to keep the site running smoothly. But the site also has extra material to look through, so look there for info on the cast and all that if you do read it on the Tumblr!)
