Okay, as someone who has played this game several times and hasn’t cried playing it after the first playthrough, this animation still brings me to tears.
the saddest part (in my opinion) wasnt the fact that claus died. its the fact that he had done too much damage to others and what i think made him kill himself with a thunder omega was all of the guilt that he felt after hearing hinawa's voice. in fact not even that, hearing his DEAD mother's voice and not wanting to be given a second chance. all he ever wanted after her death was a chance to see her again knowing that he never would. but after porky brainwashed him to attack lucas and pull the pins there was nothing else he could've done but follow orders
I agree with the idea that he did an action that the brainwashing would allow that was still what he wanted, as a quiet defiance. But I don't think it was guilt and grief that led him to suicide. I just played this for the first time recently, but what made it hit home for me was the realization that the changes made to Claus's body and mind could not be undone, that a shred of him was still there, but that the brother you wanted to save through the whole game had been dead since chapter two. It made me feel like I was being forcibly torn from denial, like remembering a loved one is dead after you wake up in the morning and think to ask them a question. I'm not invalidating your interpretation, but I think that the idea that there was no going back makes more sense than self loathing and suicidality, given Claus did not choose to be changed.
@@TheStrix I think your points are spot on. And in the earthbound wiki, it said that it's quite unknown if he was dead this whole time/found dead in chapter 2 or knocked unconscious THEN brainwashed, but in claus' song the "the strong one" or natural cyborg killer I've forgotten, there's an inconsistent BPM, which would symbolise his heartbeat, but because its hard to find the beat, it also means that there's no heartbeat in claus, so that probably means he was being artificially programmed by the machinery whilst he was dead, with the exception of a shred of his normal self still being there since he kinda recognises who he was near the end of his life.
this really was THAT video… like for mother fans in the late 2010s this was our citizen fucking kane. the art style(like these were *the* designs i pictured in my head of these characters when reading mother fics). the pacing. the mixing. everything. it all just goes insanely gutwrenchingly hard. mx sarah c was cooking enough to feed an army i fear!!
For me, it's doesn't matter. I can't cry because I haven't experienced the same or similiar things as brother siblings did, even if my bf has been through a lot. All I want to do is to release the emotions I bottled for too long
Just found out this video didn’t exist anymore. This video meant a lot to me, even outside of the realm of Mother 3. I came to this video a lot and it did a lot for me at a time I needed it. Thank you for reuploading it and I hope it resurfaces once again.
When you think your life is difficult, and realize how difficult was Lucas life. The animation is amazing, I love this final, makes me feel really sad.
I’ve been looking at this masterpiece for like the 27th time now. Moves me every time... The almost-vengeful attack at Flint as he stands in the way to protect Lucas, as if to accuse him of not being there for him, yet also simultaneously mixed with recognition and regret, the childhood flashback with Claus holding an unearthed flower to Lucas while smiling gently, the subtle change of the music to a warmer, softer tone from strings to nostalgic music box when Hinawa appears, the tearful smile Claus makes as he takes one look at Lucas’s badge to do the full-charge attack, knowing it will be his suicide… everything about this is so tragically beautifully made…
I played this game at what feels like a decade ago now. And this story still has such a lasting impact and impression on me. This story can bring me to tears so quickly.
Two boys of infinite potential. One who's only will was to love without condition. The other who's will was follow without condition. Both at the whims of a cruel world. In the end they both decided the fate of the world, and yet it feels as if neither of them ever had control at all.
Mother 3's ending, no matter in what form, always brings me to the brink of tears. It's the saddest ending I've ever seen and yet it's always so satisfying.
well damn. even after spoiling myself before playing the game, it's still quite emotional. this animation just made it a lot more emotional, and i love it
This animation makes me want to hug both boys. Claus was a very cute kid and very sweet, until he got brainwashed. It was very touching when they hugged each other as Claus was dying. This animation was done beautifully.
Brings me back tbh, i remember randomly seeing it as a kid and then randomly remebering this animation at the final part of mother 3 which does suck though
I had no Idea it was took down, I'm glad it's back. this animation is one of my favorites, it captures the ending to one of my favorites games perfectly.
But it is said, that when the moon turns a bright crimson color, It means that the spirit world is close and the souls of Hinawa and Claus will return to Earth to search for someone who shall set them free.
The sad thing is this was legits the end. And Nintendo of America couldnt handle a heart wrenching tear jerking ending so instead of Claus pulling the pin and its legits ALL over, they revive everyone in a dark screen and pretend like everyone is ok. But this, man, i see this, listen to rhe music, think man, if i could get a copy of this game, I'd save this one forever. I'm a religious guy but I'll tell you what, nothing and i mean nothing rends my soul in two like songs like this. I'm not terribly sentimental but I'll be damned if this doesn't make the toughest of men cry.
Ok So ive Seen This Animation Soo many times. But One thing Im confused over. At 8:30 The Love theme Plays But it has a Longer ending Than most Love themes Ive heard. Is this a Custom music ending or Am I missing a version of the song? Also Thank you For the reupload. This is truly a Bloody Masterpiece.
im trying to find the other 2 videos and i cant find anything. Could yall try to find a repost of the beach boys animatic, and the for the frog the bell tolls animation reply!

Hadnt cried first time? Damn ur though man

@@XICE11_YT huh
@@elementallobsterx I just don't like anime

Christ. This is absolutely soul shattering. I can't stop crying. It's the damn music, dialogue and plot. It's just to damn powerful.
My thoughts exactly
It’s just… the water keeps getting in my eyes when I’m trying to keep watching…
the part where claus hears his mom kills me dude. cannot physically keep myself from crying at that part.
Same here.

Mother 3’s ending is one of the only things that can consistently make me cry

Don't compare trauma people handle their problems in different ways
Don't suck my dick, you like to get caught up on minor details and I don't think you'd be able to take it.
Ah the memories I had with this video. Wish she kept the original up. :(
whyd she delete it? :(
Likely since this isn't really an animation.
Any idea if her channel is still up or was it just this video?
She also had a earthbound beach boys animation that was really good, so pissed she took it down
I know!! I've been searching for it forever!! :'( so sad it was taken down, its not even on her old tumblr :(
Does anyone at all have a reupload of this?
I found it on a old videos folder on my computer and already reposted it on my channel.
@@greenswag7763 thanks bro

For some reason, the animation style in the video reminds me a lot of those Animes from the 80's and 90's. That just makes this animation even better.

What really makes you sob is if you name Lucas after yourself, Claud after your sibling, and Hinawa after your mother.
Well my mother is dead so…
@@zacharykenniston748 I’m very sorry for your loss.
@@andrewmanchiraju8005 That made it worse for me when playing
I have never played a game more touching than MOTHER 3
A True piece of a masterful written-script is the true work of art.
well damn. even after spoiling myself before playing the game, it's still quite emotional. this animation just made it a lot more emotional, and i love it
I was just about to reupload this video that I also saved until I saw that you already did it. And you're right, such a masterpiece cannot stay down.
This video can’t be lost to time. We must keep it on the internet forever !
"I'm going to where mom is now"
Makes me cry every time. Thank you for uploading this
4:48 the tears start everytime I see this video
no literally it’s impossible for me to watch that part without crying.
Lucas and Claus, and Vergil and Dante from DMC has the most saddest brother relationship I've ever seen on videogame.
cute icon...
@@kangelenjoyer Thank you very much :3
I frankly, plan to change this pfp, but since you comment this, I may just keep it. ^^
change it
@@FishwicksREAL I did change, before it was a Klonoa pfp
@@-Poka- change it again it's bad.

This got me emotional when I first saw this years ago, this hasn't changed a bit since. A masterpiece!
Brings me back tbh, i remember randomly seeing it as a kid and then randomly remebering this animation at the final part of mother 3 which does suck though
Oh man. My soul, it’s been shattered by such a well done Mother animation.
I remember watching this on her original channel, along with the The Frog for whom the Bell Tolls ending animation. Wish I could see that again.
Lucas Tried To Be Stubborn For Stopping That Dumb Masked Man! 😭🙏🏻
I had no Idea it was took down, I'm glad it's back.
this animation is one of my favorites, it captures the ending to one of my favorites games perfectly.
6:23 *Claus took mortal damage*
*mmmNah took E M O T I O N A L D A M A G E*
This is amazing no matter what!
The fact this doesn’t have millions of likes and views is criminal
I feel the sadness of the poor Lucas, losing his family and his joy, i want to Hug him so hard, while crying in his arms.
For some reason, Claus looks like Mega Man.
Oh come on don’t make me laugh
Arm cannons seem to be quite popular in Japanese media.
I think Porky was a fan of Megaman
X and Zero both died.
always makes me shed a tear. the music and atmosphere here is really moving
The symbol crashing right as the PK thunder hits the Franklin badge 😙👌
😭😭😭 R.I.P Claus.
i cry every time i play mother 3, and this video was no exception.
“Okay, but check out this sick trick”
This was amazing. I absolutely love this animation!
It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve seen this I still cry all the time 😭😭 I should remember to bring tissue
This.. has brought me to tears..
Sniff...
I'm not crying. You are.
But it is said, that when the moon turns a bright crimson color, It means that the spirit world is close and the souls of Hinawa and Claus will return to Earth to search for someone who shall set them free.
Lol, why Duster in here lookin so cool while in the game Duster look's like a bum.
THE FEELS ARE HITTIN HARD MAN
Still gets me every time
I think it’s safe to say this, even though I’m not an earthbound fan, but despite everything that Ness had to go through. Lucas went through worse.
Yep
I just realized you can spell Lucas with Claus
Deep, very well done tribute to Mother 3.
This had me bawling in tears along with the music.
This is why I use the Claus alt when I use Lucas
Hah! This video won’t make me cry, I haven’t played it!
*9 minutes later, crying a river*
I’m just before this point in the game and I don’t think knowing the ending is going to make it any easier.
This hits so hard to me these days. I'm a dad of twin daughters. They're becoming the best of friends.
i never played mother 3 or mother but this artstyle and made my heart a hole
The sad thing is this was legits the end. And Nintendo of America couldnt handle a heart wrenching tear jerking ending so instead of Claus pulling the pin and its legits ALL over, they revive everyone in a dark screen and pretend like everyone is ok.

Dude Nintendo didn't translate it, the fans did, it never got an official translation
Coming back to this...the part that hurts me most is the still shot of Flint just...holding Claus. It fucking hurts.
I was crying so hard u forgot how to cry
Is this video the same as the original without changing the subtitles or BGM? The original creator seems to have closed the channel, sad.
bruh im crying once again
This is cool. Like really cool
This destroyed me I can't stop crying.
3:13 this part jst made me sad throughout the video
claus............... :(
happy birthday mother 3
