The Italians were lucky. The ending of 52 is the closest the Animorphs get to a happy ending.

I absolutely adore fluffy Andalites from the TV series. 💙💙💙

Maybe the Chee had something to do with Moses ...see as how they claim to know him 😂

I love this! Im a big animorphs fan but I started reading them like 10 years after they finished so I kinda missed the boat on it so seeing animorphs discussion is so cool! This is also so well produced and thought out!

This is unbelievably good

Jocularity! Jocularity!

Bro Rachel just popped to the top like nobody's business lol. I tell you what though, after watching some videos about the series, I sincerely regret not reading it in school. I was one of the " what is that ugly cover" crowd. Also, it is totally possible to make a "clean" nuke. I would assume Andalite nukes would be that way. Unless it was one of ours, then yeah, fallout.

How have i just found this channel - I feel like we are sharing a brain 😂 i posted a whole deep dive into MC being the 'lost Animorph' on reddit ...I have never seen anyone dive this deep into it! Way to go dude

Youre like the only person ive heard blame the poolship flushing on Ax and he CLEARLY is responsible. It paralells his brother who refused to do it under strict orders and threats, meanwhile Ax suggests and encourages the flushing

As a hardcore Warrior Cats and Animorphs fan who even wrote a crossover in middle school, yeah I've got nothing.

exquisite content. my spouse is similarly floored. you're doing incredible work, thank you for keeping this series in the cultural memory and even expanding on it, otherwise only 90s kids will remember

(originally a reply but i thought it was too unrelated to the comment so i deleted it and copied it here) I wish the alternate universes were utilized more but considering Cassie seemingly destroys any alternate timeline she's in for too long, maybe it's a good thing that it wasn't. Though now that I think about it, a full-on multiverse adventure where they can't stay in any universe for too long because of Cassie's anomalousness would be pretty cool, if not a little too similar to that one Megamorphs book.

Idk I like the idea that the Alternamorphs universe was so doomed from that start that it (or one similar) is genuinely what turned into the bad future. Considering picking one wrong morph gets the entire team killed in Alternamorphs, I don't think it's unlikely. /j

I particularly liked the comma one because that does sound like something this channel would have a 30 minute video on.

Hey Torren! Idk if you remember me but I commented on the iceberg video about the two hours rounded down because andalites use base 14 thing but I'm back with another theory because of you! In this video you mention how there are always 12 (or, a dozen) hork bajir. I'm reading Visser now and in the first chapter while Visser one and three are meeting before the council, there is this quip: “The two stalk eyes roamed here and there, checking the equipment, watching the ceremonial thirteen Hork-Bajir guards that stood at attention around our small, secure room.” So I'm guessing either the animorphs always guesstimate a dozen in a panic while facing 13 hork bajir or more likely there is probably a hork bajir (with taxxon) on the bug fighter as a getaway driver. Just food for thought!

Love the early Years of Mash

Also, did you count the deaths in book 18.5 to Tobias or ax?

I just... I just really appreciate the mature, considered analysis you give to Cassie's rich character. Thank you

KA Applegate as portrayed by Sigourney Weaver isn't half bad, to be fair

The man does Animorphs analysis and Galaxy Quest references… I love this channel

Good, fun video!

You’re definitely an 80s-90s baby.. cause these were classics in the school library with our generation😂 Animorphs (series) Goosebumps (series) Babysitters club (series) Black lagoon (series) Sugar creek (series) Then JK Rowling helped us Grow into the world of imagination and Magic 🪄 and gave us the Harry Potter (Series)… we had it the best😌..Then u become an adult and end up in the world of George RR Martin

the scream I scrumpt when you mentioned Tom at the end X_X

hahahah calling the city Morphington is genius

it feels like this video was made especially for me <3

Wrong, the most mindless creature on earth is the koala.

I will probably never read an Animorphs book, but you totally captivated me with the lore of the world and how it could justify a resurrection of the series. Your editing was so entertaining and you articulated your points well enough for me to follow along without knowing anything. I'm sure fans of the series would appreciate this video, I think xD Great job, and best of luck to you ^^

I got a couple of kills. Wasn't there a CYOA book?

david n harold being the same person is so funny 2 me. yeah buddy. havent seen the series but i agree just bcuz its so silly. hell yeah

You go on to say how the Andalites being xenophobic is a bad thing only in the next sentence to say the Hork were too trusting which was their downfall. Heh.

Why does... why does this all make sense?

Wait... Is torren the Animorphs Matpat!?

Good God this has dug up some DECADES buried memories but its coming back stronger than I'd have imagined

I'll give you 11 cinnamon buns out of 10 for that Moses quip. Very under-discussed!

Dang, this is an excellent analysis and theory

*chef's kiss* Flawless. No notes. Okay one note: I remember the first time I ever read Elfangor's Secret; I'd read the books out of order (as you do when the series was long over and you could only find them in thrift shops) and had no idea when in the timeline ES was, so for a hot second I genuinely thought there was an arc I'd missed where Melissa joined the team. I got SO EXCITED it didn't even register that it was meant to be an alternate reality until Jake was... well, alternate reality Jake.

What an awesome journey and mental exercise. I love this❤

Really cool video. I like this especially because it fits into my headcanon that Crayak and the Ellimist did several more (offscreen) resets that don’t result in anything. This is what my rationale for what #43 The Familiar is, too. In your exploration of the timeline, Crayak does not see Jake, and for me, that’s a good explanation for why the Ellimist is able to undo this timeline. The Ellimist seems to tries not to show Crayak his hand (if it can be helped).

I love how your brain works. Everything make so much sense!!

What a good catch, and I am so excited to watch this. I’m going to put my guess in before watching: . . Melissa Chapman.

As great of a choice as I'm Afraid of Americans is for the end of the video, it would've been even better if you used the 1995 Showgirls version of the song where the chorus goes "I'm afraid of the animals"

as someone who has never read any animorph books, this is pretty interesting

Maybe it is a reference to the choose your own adventure animorphs?

This is... I hate how I was going "Yeah... this could work"

Fun fact, you'll never guess where internet music producer and video essayist Patricia Taxxon's last name comes from. It also ties into the parts about trans and furry fans of the series.

The editing for this one was off the charts (I love the card-backing, I remember seeing that on the subreddit)- I'll always look forward to your videos! You have such a pleasant conversational tone that doesn't feel like you're talking down to viewers who may not be through the whole series or even just to newcomers, which I really appreciate! I'm so glad other folks have been compelled to pick out favorite raptors as well- I can never see a red-tail without thinking of Tobias. I like the rusty coloration on Aplomado falcons, but they are comparatively quite tiny. The speckling on a Swainsons' are also cool as hell- they remind me of Short-Eared owls!

BILLY JO- ...fuck. Well played.

While we're discussing the Ellimist picking the team, I'll just note that the two characters that weren't explicitly hand-picked by the Ellimist - Jake and Rachel - are also the only two characters who Crayak directly interferes with. He "sees" Jake in 6, sets up MM3 to try to kill him, and gives him the offer that starts MM4; while he offers Rachel a deal in 26, and the whole 48 is basically him trying to tempt her. No other characters are involved with Crayak. Also - my favorite fanon idea - that deal in 27 was for Rachel to kill "your cousin", not explicitly Jake. Well, she killed Tom, and if there's one thing I know about cosmic forces toying with mortals, it's that they pick their words VERY carefully.

Man this video makes me want to re-read all my Animorphs books. Weirdly enough I swear I remember that detail about the other human Animorph and assumed it would be payoff at some point in the future where that person winds up being instrumental in helping them... but it never happened.

Is the secret animorph the book that always morphs its cover?
