Biblaridion: "want to see a magic trick, im about to make half of all living things disappear" *cackles maniacally*
By stuffing pizzas in my nose, I can make EVERYONE leave the room! Take that Biblaridion!
If it's only half, then that's a pretty wimpy mass extinction. I want at least a 70% extinction rate
@@thorsday121 oh boy....
Going Thanos.
Perfectly balanced as all things should be
The lesson from this episode is don't get attached to fictional creatures in speculative evolution projects, they will most likely die.
Well, don't attach to species
Nah, getting attached made this episode waaayyy more intense and engaging when creatures went extinct or found new niches
Giant spider goes extinct.
Arachnophobes: oh no! Anyways!
I'll miss the Tanybrachids
Destroy your art, even if that art sustains whole phyla of life
This episode was a huge "kill your darlings" moment with the death of all these species and clades. The re-diversification of bunch of them absolutely elevated the series!
After the emergence of sapience I would love to see a short spinoff series where different cultures are developed, focusing on clothing, architecture and maybe language.
I’d like a longer sequel series. But cool!
Season 2! Season 2! Season 2!
Things that might have gone differently and completely change the culture, since they are not humans(from future to past):
Hot war, one-sided assured destruction
War that have ended all war
No major religions banned usury, industrial revolution and capitalism only increases debt slavery (literal one. You know, when you and your wife are not yours anymore, since it was the only property you can pay debt with. Hey, it's way worse in alternate reality when you are born with freedom and can't just sell it)
Other continents haven't got _that much_ technologically impaired, so colonisation was harder
Religions that had become major had other philosophical systems and sets of moral values
Collective marriages (greater inequality of parent's love distribution, but more connection towards bigger groups)
That would be incredible
Их история! От каменного века и античности, до эпохи возрождения!!!
Extinction is the rule. Survival is the exception. - Carl Sagan (2006)
"The secrets of evolution are time and death... there's an unbroken thread that stretches from those first cells to us." - Also Carl Sagan
So what your saying is, Biblaridion is inevitable?
**snap**
Damn, that's metal.
Evolution is a billion year old corpse pile, and we stand on the top to reach for the stars. (Misquoted from Isaac Arthur)
@@theapexsurvivor9538 the idea that any single lifeform stands on "the top" is false, because the corpse pile represents the past, and the top, which represents the present, is where everything that exists today stands upon, forever climbing on top of the corpses of those that died beside them, whilst carrying their children on top of them. the pile grows ever larger, from a pile of corpses, to a pile of ruins, and then perhaps a pile of scraps, and, through time, who encompasses all, brings death to all, and destroys all worlds, it will become a pile of the stars themselves, and at the top, nothing but time itself remains, and with its rampage done, it too will finally rest.
Applauses for the living beings that survived and a minute of silence for those that didn't make it.
Bold of you to assume that something is going to survive this in the first place.
@@randomguy-tg7oklife um finds away.
Any predictions?
@@miguellilly8859acrocheirids that display good parentral care, small size, burrying livestyle and broad diet are gonna make it trought as well as other Lystrocheirids
I don't think the megalobrachids and those deinognathans are gonna survive
The fact that the legendary C.M. KÖSEMEN HIMSELF made the final image teasing sapient life speaks volumes about how far this project has come. As someone who has been watching since the very beginning, I’m proud of the progress made, and can’t wait to see what stories will come from this world
I literally started PHYSICALLY JUMPING IN EXCITEMENT when I saw his name. It was so completely unexpected.
Forgive my ignorance...
Who is he?
@@Ratchet4647 C.M. Köseman wrote and illustrated several books concerning spec evo. Some of his works include the famous All Tomorrows, Snaiad, and he also worked as an illustrator for All Yesterdays
Oh yes! I've heard of his work!
Now that's cool!
He's made art throughout the series, actually. Not since the very start, but very far back.
Fun fact: The first time I watched this, most of the critters set off my arachnophobia real bad, but when I went back & binged the whole series, I was able to turn off that reaction for a good 70% of those critters’ appearances.
*When the world needed him most... he came back.*
ong
To blow up another world
Not that he was ever actually one
Well...Tira certainly did not need him most for what he is about to unleash on it
He never really left, it just took him a while
me: "oh man now that the mass extinction is over i wonder what new animals are gonna evolve"
biblaridion: "ok so first up giant nightmare spider demons"
Hahaha exactly that
Rhino spider, shank spider, tank spider, noodle spider? What next? Spider astronauts?

@@MrGemaxos there are worse things. Imagine creatures that predate on weasels. They are simply too fast for us to know about them.

First can we give a huge hand to Burpopo for those animations. And second I'm not ready for there only to be 1 more part. This has been one of the best series I randomly came across 3 years ago.
Now it's so nice to remember the first series, where it all started. And it started with a worm with segments and a pebble with tentacles.
Yea :)
I am both incredibly happy with this episode and absolutely terrified of the fact that the next one is gonna be the last one
Alien civilization would be a logical sequel.
And it hope it will make up for that! I’m excited to see sapience rise and see Biblaridion use his knowledge of language in the evolution of languages and cultures on this planet.

@@therealspeedwagon1451 Alien Biospheres: Part 15 - Sapient Species & Dawn of Civilisation
Extra episodes for "overlooked information"
I'm hoping to see Troglofauna (cave adapted animals) carving out a niche after a mass extinction.
I really like the idea of adaptive radiation where the starting animals are super specialised in non-sight related sensory capabilities.
You know, I used to be afraid of spiders. But after watching this series, I've realized they could be worse.
especially the septentria thing with the venom claws....
you can't even go "well, it looks like a spider, but at least it doesn't have venom" now
This is my favorite comment in the series
yeah, now we have Spider Sharks, Spider Lions, Spider cows.... HAHAHA
@@yannismorris4772 My favorite comment in this sort-of category was:
Literal spider monkey isn't real, it can't hurt you.
*Literal spider monkey*
You should read Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. My appreciation for spiders was increased about 100000x by that book. It is truly a masterpiece.
Speculative Evolution? Language? Conlanging? Worldbuilding? Those are literally my special interests and hobbies. This man was a gift to me from god.
Oh yea ik right? He’s proof that everything you can ever need for learning for enjoyment can be found in one RUclipsr with an unpronounceable name 😂
@@jackstephenson185Brought us to different worlds. Literally.
48:56 this is the most creative animation yet. It shows such interesting behavior to push off of something to pounce on their prey and then happily clack their extra mandibles in victory
Burpopo has made like 10 animations here and its fantastiv
The animator has brought high- purity nightmare fuel to this series...
I will declare this an equivalent to a dog wagging its tail and no one can stop me!
I'm surprised how deeply I felt the loss of these fictional creatures. Watching thirteen episodes of this wonderful series, witnessing the proliferation and diversification of the planets myriad species, and now watching these lineages and clades snuffed out one-by-one. It's genuinely sobering despite the fact that they're made-up creatures on a made-up world.
And that’s true for life on Earth too. 99% of all life that has ever existed is now dead and the majority of those dead life forms have since been forgotten.
@@therealspeedwagon1451 Indeed. Certainly makes you pause.
It is something we need to watch out for today. There is an extinction event being caused by us right now and our actions will determine its severity. I have faith in humanity, but things could easily get out of our control.
[Crying noises]
@@falsevacuum4667good thing we've already hit peak oil eh?
Let’s take a moment and appreciate the hard work bib and the amazing artists put into making this
Artists* many, many hands were put to work in order to achieve this.
Yes, it is astonishing
Thank the entire team for this amazing series!!!!
thank u !!! (im one of those :D)
[Spoilers]
Can’t wait to see who becomes the dominant species! I’m thinking either the Chelaphorans or one of the Ramphodonts who kept their hands. Or maybe Tira will have 2 dominant species? So many possibilities!
After getting used to C.M. Kosemen being featured in basically all of the last few episodes, I was waiting for his art piece to show up for the entire video. Just as I thought "maybe there is no Kosemenart this time" , you drop it in the flipping teaser for the next episode! and for sapient life no less!
He also made art for the megantroforms!
@@SashedPotato welp looks like I missed that one lol
All other synischians: *Dying out, doomed from the start by their clade’s specializations for large bodies*
One singular genus of hybognathans: “skill issue lol”
"Imagine actually being on the mainland lol"
anyone wish some titanpod speies surive
@@samanthabronder9861the titanopods were a pretty forgone conclusion, but they really deserved better when they were around. Pretty much the only evolutionary innovation they got was getting bigger, and other herbivores still got large enough to outcompete them anyway.
The clade I’m most disappointed about losing is the malleognathans. If any synischian group had a shot at surviving, it would’ve been them.
*_What a masterpiece!_* Such a rollercoaster of emotions. The devastating losses of the first half. The brilliant parade of new diversity in the second half. The indication that the series is coming to an end. And the promise of one last episode with one more major development! Seriously, this is documentary level stuff, and well worth the wait! Major props to Biblaridion, and to all the artists who contributed!
I felt the same. This episode could easily have been split into two, with a mass extinction episode left off on a cliffhanger of "everything's dead" and an episode on rapid species radiation. Instead we got this behemoth. I'm happy either way, but it was definitely a wild ride.
Through the whole section going through the animals that would go extinct, one by one, I kept thinking "What's even LEFT after all this? How are they going to survive?"
And after everything this series has covered, up to and including mass extinction, there's really only one major topic left to discuss, and it's a doozy. I look forward to the development of sapience in the upcoming and final episode.
I mean, they don't call it a Mass Extinction for nothing
It never really occurred to me how extinctions flesh out and diversify the various clades as they pass through time. How mass expansion into different niches combined with mass culling can create very different branches in the family tree by cutting away the intermediary species that let you see the point of connection.
shoutout to the cameraman who traveled to TIRA 292b as well as sevral billion years back and forth in time just to get us these pictures
I hope someday in the future he makes an Alien civilizations Series. This one was amazing!
watch the video till the end >:3
there probably wouldn't be one for the same reason we don't see aliens... It'd be based on essentially nothing.. Edit: unless you don't mean extra-planetary and instead the sentient life on this planet then id agree.
rise to top coments!
I second this. I know that there's one more episode about the forming of sapient life, but I want to follow the first of the sapient life and see how they develop culture, and language, and technology. :(

- Biblaridion in this video, totally original quote
Naughty! You leaked spoilers from the Discord server!
@@PrawnAddiction Bro chill it's just an Oppenheimer quote that can be used in literally any context which involves mass destructions
@@evfnyemisx2121 Are you on the Discord server?
I love that next episode's evolutionary implication is accompanied by ominous, tribal music that kind of shifts the excited and curious feeling of a lot of the previous section into a worrying proposition that elicits more terror than the most vicious hyper-carnivore we've met.
Extinction is brought on by climate change rather than solely by violent catastrophes. I love how you focus on this aspect-it helps contextualize the past and the threat posed by anthropogenic climate change.
@@13.ghaniziyadsagiansyah66 Earth's entire natural biosphere could disappear tomorrow and human civilization would continue with negligble disruption. Climate change is a fucking scam.
Humanity is doing a "good" job of exploiting far too many resources and polluting until there's more plastic than fish in the sea, but there is no such thing as anthropogenic climate change. Climate has always changed, our climate today is much milder than it was in the last several centuries. The 18th century was a mini ice age and the middle ages were MUCH warmer than today. Despite not "burning carbon".
The doomsday cult keeps coming up with new ways cars or cows or low taxes are going to kill the planet, and every time for the past 60 years, they've been wrong.
Well I guess you'll be glad to hear we've already hit peak oil than.
@@13.ghaniziyadsagiansyah66this comment is self controdictory.
It asserts the process is innevitable once stared, than says we've started it multiple times so we better stop.
This kind of obviously controdictory talk is what fuels denialists. If you cannot keep your story straight in a single comment, it looks really bad when you start making prescriptions
Sadly anthropogenic climate change is a shadow puppet on the wall of Plato's cave but appears very real as to conjurer religious zealotry. It only takes mild research to disprove the myth.
Big shoutouts to the Desmostracans for making it this far, they've been my favorite clade since they became bulkier and more heavy-set, and I'm glad for them to have survived to the present day.
They really did become bulkier and more heavy set
They're basically terrestrial lobster-snails and I love that about them.
1:14:41, DAMN! You've done such a great job on this that basically one of the leaders of the speculative biology community made FAN ART! Congrats dude!
There’s another at 44:46. I did a double take 😂
Kösemen has made art for this project before, IIRC.
Yeah, Biblaridian has said at a few points that Koseman is actually a friend of his.
Kösemen is actually a close personal friend of Biblaridion IRL! He's the one who got Bib into biology in the first place.
This hurts so much. I become really attached to some of these creatures, especially some of the arboreal clades which I came to adore during the rainforest video and which just died off without fanfare.
@58:40 That's my piece. Not an experienced artist, so it took me a few weeks to complete during downtime at work while on my phone. Thank you so much Bib for including my little Gyrinothere family into your penultimate episode!
Looks cool
@@archieevans9864 Thank you!
Pretty good
@@seagullman87 Btw as a artist which species do you believe will gain sentience
@@archieevans9864 It's hard to say anything for certain, but if C.M. Kösemen's cave painting at the end of the episode is any indication, the sapient clade will have 3-digit hands/claws, meaning we'll see at least one rhamphodont clade gain intelligence. My money would be on the Oligiopods, given how their hyper-centaurism grants them a greater degree of dexterity even compared to other acrocheirids.
TRIPLE WHAMMY! Super long episode, indepth look at radiation and sneak peak at sapient life with art from C.M. Kosemen? What more could we want. No Alien Biosphere Season 2 though. I can live with that.
Since Kosemen did work with ancient inteligent species (as inteligent birds) I would love to see an further collab between Biblia and Kose
@@rissmebesce71that would be a dream come true
I smell a man after man treatment but with less psychic powers and genetic memory.
@@karolkwiecjasz9356 I doubt it. Man after Man evolves technology and genetic engineering where as this is more Wayne Barlowes' Expedition meets the Walking with Series.
He HAS mentioned the idea of doing AB minisodes discussing Tiran lineages that were overlooked in the previous episodes.
I’m excited for what’s new but also scared for what’s gone extinct, it might include some of my favorites 😅
Care to write them down so we can keep track? See who remains when the dust settles.
Well they have sciency names so I don’t remember but my favorites are the, monkey one, the ones that chirp, the ant colony ones, the centor ones, and the island ones.
@@jaypants1436 they all die
😢
@jaypants1436 @jaypants1436 there are names and wiki pages for each major clade on the Tira Wiki (Tira is the name of the planet)
If you binge this series, you will see a very noticable increase in the quality of the models
I lucked into seeing part of this live, and I’m back to continue watching. In college I had a professor ask me “Why waste time making up fantastic creatures when the world is so full of fascinating creatures already?”
Because this. This right here. What you’re doing, Biblaridion. Exercising your mind to develop and explore imaginary ecosystems and the processes and possibilities within them. Good literature and art are good because they hold a kernel of truth that supports a framework to show us our own world from a different perspective. You do that here, and you do an amazing job. Thank you for your fascinating contribution to a better understanding of evolutionary development and the world we live in. Your previous videos were a vast, beautiful canvas, but with the added dimensions of time and consequence, you and your artists have made a richly detailed sculpture to ponder and explore.
Even as Alien Biospheres comes to a close, I can't help but hope that it ends up a launching point for some Alien Civilization series. Absolutely fantastic stuff.
and I'll be waiting for Curious Archive to make a video on this saga
@@C-Farsene_5 me too
I think that it should truly end, the idea of a civillization just doesnt sound right, he has spent years making aliens that truly are more or less animals and then all of a sudden flying murder spider squids become intelligent, just doesnt sound right
Thank you beyond words for making this series. The hard work you've put in, which has produced an incredible and rightfully beloved series, high-quality, interesting, educational, and fun, is recognised and appreciated. Congratulations!
This channel played a big part for me becoming more of a nature fan then before.
I don’t know why it took me this long to realize, but the Tira version of the common cold must especially suck for any animal that gets it. Their holes used for breathing are completely separate from their mouths. So unlike us, if their "nostrils" get stuffed up they don’t have the option to breathe with their mouth. This might make Tira's version of the common cold rather deadly.
'tis a shame I missed the premiere (It was too early for me) I've decided to timestamp every art piece that I drew so I can look back on this and go "oh hey it's me!"

Anyways, I am both incredibly excited for the next episode, and slightly saddened that it's coming to an end. I had so much fun drawing all the art I did and I'm glad that I got the opportunity to venture out of my comfort zone and draw something I've never drawn before.
this is absolutely the best episode of alien biospheres so far. i can't wait for what the final episode will bring.
Sad to see the series ending, but happy to see Sapients will be coming in the finale.
That cliffhanger legit sent chills down my spine. Now my brain is racing just trying to figure out which group is most likely to develop sapience.
What an awesome, terrifying, Wagnerian finale! Honoured to be part of it! :)
I was glad to see your art return, and as I was in spoiler channels, I expected you to choose a megantroform. Seemed like your kind of creature. Might I ask how you decide what clade to draw?
@@SashedPotato Biblaridion gave me some options, I chose... a nice coincidence
All good things must come to an end. I am so proud of everyone who worked on this project. And I look forward to the Grand Finale!
At the end where he talked about intelligence I got serious chills
Was definitely jumping up and down
Especially with another art piece by nonother than C. M. kosemen!
Pretty sure those drums at the end were boss music.
It is serina all over again
38:18 Mole snakes that evolved from spider-like things. I love it.
And then theres the promise of sapient lifeforms in the next episode. How marvelous! He better make a conlang video about a potential language they may develop.
The worldbuilding and art for this world is incredible. I love how these creatures can look either kinda cute or absolute nightmarish hellspawn depending on the context and artist
Congrats; if you are seeing this you are one of the many who were patient enough to wait 10 months for the next episode, and I sure as shit hope its worth it. I will edit this comment when the video premiers and I see it for the first time along with hundreds if not thousands of others.
Edit: Holy shit so many things died. RIP everything that was bigger than a cat before the extinction event
It was really ten!? Damn, for the sentient life episode we will wait 2 years then
@@piotrwegrzyniak5798 Yep, ep 13 came out in July of last year. It's been a while.
Nah we probably won't have to wait as long for the next. This one was a long one because after killing so many species and clades off, Bib had to model and get artwork done for the largest number of new clades and species to ever be introduced in a single episode.
Please do continue after the rise of sapient species! It would be amazing to see a series about speculative cultures and civilizations in a similar style to the speculative evolution videos.
Given how this series is suddenly popping up on people's feeds, I'm assuming episode 15 has already dropped for patreons and must be currently unlisted on the channel. I'm very excited to see it whenever Bib makes it public.
Can't wait to see these guys unlock sapience. I want to see what weird languages and cultures come out of this world. The domestication of animals and plants will also be something I'll be looking forward to. Thanks to all the artists who bring life into this project. Pretty soon it's just gonna be a full length animated documentary lmao
Meganthroformes will be domesticated into the m e a t c u b e
Especially because of the fact they have no necks, and the fact most if not all of the osteopods can switch sex.
Its all burning down gloriously
Hey Batty.
@@bunk_foss 🦇
This has been an incredibly helpful series in developing my own speculative biology projects. I can't wait to see what this episode has in store (in addition to incredible death and destruction)
I literally need to flesh out multiple planets (in our solar system) to act as if they've always had life. for a project of mine.. get that life to sentience and then use misconception to create gods , and mythical beasts and then fit them into history like they've always exists. turning it into fantasy I.e Dragons, griffins, etc.
@@selfishbeats that sounds very cool
53:05
By forgetting one letter you've created the biggest predator in the planets history😂
alien godzilla
Genuinely an INCREDIBLE series! My jaw kept dropping over and over at the creative, distinct, and well researched creature designs in this series. I frowned when some of my favorites died out. I cheered when the extinction passed and life took new forms. What a work of art!
I can’t wait to see what species survive and how the biosphere will look like.
As someone who hates spiders this series has been a fascinating deep dive into my greatest fear evolving from one creepy crawler to the next.
I mean as a Botany and horticulturalist , I love how you took into account the effects of mass extinctions on specialist species of plants in coastal and insular areas vulnerable to climate change like areas similar to Australia, the Caribbean and ect tropical ecoregions
Honestly i cant be upset by the time between videos when the amount of effort and time put into these is clear, overall my favourite series on youtube since it started.
"You should've gone for the head!!" *SNAP*
Oh my God... I remember watching first three episodes, wich I accedently find out at that time, and thinking "Wow, this dude making his own planet and taking biological laws into account", I remeber someones joke in the comments for some episode, saying something like "One day we will see "episode 298 - evolving intelegency"", and now it's almost real (well, it will be not episode 298, but 15 instead, but it's understandable, evolution is often cyclical, there is no need to think through many mass extinctions after which the same niches will be occupied in the recovery process). This project became massive, I was happy to return to this seria every time new episode appear, thank you for everything, Biblaridion, can't wait to see final part, I'm sure it will be grate.
P.S.: Sorry if I made a mistakes in grammary, I'm not a native english speaker.
~my mind's this cave
~so dark, no moon, no stars
~No sounds, just hearts, and walls of art
I was a little worried about the mass extinction and ensuing diversity loss, but if anything, this video contains some of the coolest and most exciting lifeforms yet. I adore the Zygodendrons, Apodomorphs, Oligopods, Dictyorhynchids, Synopterids and Megantroforms (and all the rest). Also, huge props to the artists here - visuals get better and more sophisticated with every video. Well done overall, Bib. Well worth the wait! Bit of a surprise to hear you're wrapping up but I cannot wait for the final episode!
i don't think i'll be emotionally prepared for what's about to happen
Chills at that conclusion. I'm so looking forward to seeing which animal becomes the sapient one.
I've been following this since the almost beginning and I enjoy watching a bunch of world designers basically play "Biology D&D"
sapience is something i've been anticipating since episode 1
really excited to see which species evolves and how
really wish we got to see the emergence of a space faring species. nonetheless, what an incredible ride. combining real world biology with speculative evolution is something i didn’t know i loved but you showed me a new fascination i’ll have to keep exploring even after this series comes to an end. THANK YOU BIBLARIDION
He said the next episode will feature sapient life, so maybe. But I doubt it, considering that will then go into a much more sociological exploration of life.
Shout out to all the artists obviously, but Sashed Potato specifically. I'm in love.
Oh my gosh I have a fan! Hello there 😁
C M Koseman making fanart is the highest honor any spec evo project can have
I got the notification from the discord and came here immediately. I literally fell over when I saw the "16 hours" still hyped though
Oooo that’s tomorrow. I can’t wait. I really hope he explores this further in later content in the future. A part 2, a new dawn for a whole new host species.
Finally it’s back.
This is the only series where I will happily wait a year for the next episode.
I also hope that he will make another series after this
I love this new ecosystem and am looking forward to meeting the sapient bois that I'm sure will be very cool
After all this time, is finally ending
I might cry...
An end. But a new beginning.
endings are just shy beginnings
Not the end.
Well, the species may become intelligent or something and than he start creating a alien conlang or something
bruh there's one more episode after this and a whole epilog series is planned after, it's far from over
BABE WAKE UP, NEW ALIEN BIOSPHERES IS ABOUT TO DROP
i keep coming back to watch this video, its just amazing, best video in the series, i love all the creatures, idk why but they remind me of dr seuss creatures
51:10
No One:
Evolution: It’s time for Crab.
I could sense that this would be the penultimate entry in the Alien Biospheres series and guessed correctly at what the last one will be about. This was yet another amazing video in an already amazing video series and I really felt the weight and gravity of the explanation for why each species would go extinct but I also awed at the emergence of a whole new biosphere made up of the decendants of the few scattered clades of survivors. It was really interesting how when comparing analogous habitats and the niches they hold, before and after the mass extinction, they got filled in similar but different ways by species not at all closely related to each other - or in other words - convergent evolution!
So This is how it ends: not with a bang, but with a rodent.
-Megatron (Beast Wars), "The Weak Component" Beast Machines.
This was the prediction rodents-like creatures were going to appear, but that didn't happen so now this quote seems very random.
MAN, to say im amped for the next episode, would be a colossal Understatement
Biblarion, you sir have crafted something truly special. To this viewer and doubtlessly countless others, "Alien Biospheres" has earned a place among the top tier works of speculative evolution such as "After Man" and "The Future is Wild."
As if to prove my point, that last piece of artwork containing the citation "Art by C.M. Kösemen." Just WOW!
I immediately hear Gangsta's Paradise in my head when I see Bib upload a new episode to Alien Biospheres.
The culmination of 3 years of character arcs.
Well, this is all so great
I thought mass extinction would be very sad, but the contrast it imposes between the remaining species is so exciting it’s worth all the death.
And the next chapter will definitely be at least twice as exciting
And I will probably have finished the most intensive period of my studies by then, so I will finally have time to make some art, or participate in/launch a project about Tira 292b
Even though I’ve known this is going to happen since the first episode it still hurts to see all of these cool creatures die.
A moment of silence for all the clades that are about to be burned to a crisp🔥
Burpopo's really out here making a whole movie out of this project. It's very alien planet & I love it
My god, this world feels so deep and beautiful and alive at this point, the layers of life over time, the improving art, the rebirth after death (or maybe it's that the new radiations look more mammalian). (Though the rhamphodonts still bother me. There are lots of arachnophobes in the comments, but it's the mole creatures, especially the mole snakes, that creep me out.) I'm very curious to see Biblaridion's take on sapience, what sorts of preconditions he thinks are necessary for its evolution. I wish the series a beautiful end, and I'm excited for what new projects Bib might come up with next (and I hope he also rests as much as he needs to).
Edit: Hey wait, a little speculation? At 1:14:40, those are 3-clawed red marks on the rock painting, and we know what clade has 3 claws. *sigh* The goddamn moles :)
Omg I called the sapient moles
Oh my god, I was not expecting a terrifying spider creature in the form of Pholcoscelids. That legitimately took me off guard for a second.
Essa é minha série favorita da vida. Muito muito ansioso, de um jeito bom.

Ik u won't see this but I wanted to say you are amazing
Not only have your alien renders improved drastically since the series started but you kickstarted my interest and eventual love of spec bio and this wonderful community. Thank you for inspiring me to make my own project and wish you the best in life, keep doing what you do! 👍
3:43 Biblaridion: "let's evolve sapient life!"
Also Biblaridion: lets one of the most peculiar clade, the one with the most advanced form of cooperation besides colonial, unmentioned through the hole post extintion.
🧐
So excited! No joke, I was talking about this with my boyfriend just last night 🎉
I'm assuming the scale at 53:03 is a typo, but I couldn't help laughing at the idea of a 20 cm creature suddenly evolving into a 25 METER tall behemoth
Gosh I have adored this series since I first stumbled upon it and I'm so sad to know it is coming to an end. But I would be lying if I didn't say I wasn't excited to see what may come next.
