okay pardon the long ass comment this is just gonna be me exploding about everything in this video and half analyzing it (mostly yapping though) before i get into the actual events in the PMV (and how beautifully they're executed), i want to bring up some character design choices that i really liked. lyney's sharp teeth is one of my favorite because it may have two meanings -- it could be a feline trait he shares with lynette (this was the first idea to pop in my head) or a canine trait due to his mask being a,, fox..??? I DONT KNOW WHAT ANIMALS ARE :( while all the mask choices are really clever, my personal favorite is clervie being a rabbit and arlecchino being a hare. so close yet so, so different. on to the actual video! 0:00 - 0:16 : while their poses are all the same, their facial expressions are all distinct in a way that really shows off who they are as characters/people. lyney is confident (if not showy), lynette follows the base pose well but doesn't add any flare like lyney does, and freminet more than often shies away from the camera. small details matter, and you got every last one down perfect. 0:17 - 0:44 : i don't have a lot to say here about the expressions and poses that i hadn't before, even though i *want* to try and grow extra braincells to unpack why who's asking about harpy hair to who (and why lyney and lynette change places though freminet doesn't), i just don't have those braincells right now. instead, i want to bring up the artistic direction here. i really really REALLY like the simple background choice -- complexity of the background is already covered by the paper texture and surrounding brackets, so you went for small patches of grass and flowers instead; what a smart choice! besides not crowding the eyes and being visually pleasing, it benefits us by contributing to the story being told here: one of children, told by children, about children. while it doesn't have an air of childlike innocence or wonder about it, it's simple and direct, something the story here is not.. excellent choice!! reminds me a lot of the "orange scene" from reverse:1999. 0:45 - 0:57 : holy FUCK i love this part. still upholds the same character traits we know and love in the body language and roles, but tells a whole nother story in the meantime. both of lyney's younger siblings rest on him, which is a really nice touch considering they're all he has when arlecchino is away or busy or doing evil bullshit. they look up to him, and it's really evident here that he's a person of comfort for them. there's a turning point in the story here, though: "harpy hare" appears. while i could focus on the fact we can't see arlecchino's front, i wanna focus on how lyney's facial expression shifts -- he's consistently comfortable and confident in what he's saying UNTIL he refers to arlecchino. whether it's his trust in her ability or his own to take care of his siblings, it's still an interesting falter in his behavior i really like. 0:58 - 1:13 : not much to say here, but i really like how the kids just go back to playing. "well, father's acting strange again.. well what can you do except play pattycake in these trying times". 1:14 - 1:20 : LETS GOOOOO MY SECONDD FAVORITEPARTTT first and probably foremost, i love how they transition from not wearing their masks at all or on their face to being completely covered with them. especially with how clervie has her mask in her HAND when her and arlecchino are first shown -- nowhere near her face. yet, even though she puts it on in the end, she still ends up dead in arlecchino's arms. i also like how they get closer and closer with each dance move, only to have that proximity end with clervie's death. 1:21 - 1:29 : MY FAVORITE PART!! only 8 seconds and yet SO much happens. first of all, the mirrored pose from holding clervie to holding on to her kids!! it feels like reliving the experience, even from the viewer's side... and, tell me if i'm wrong, but is the blood only coming from around where her arms are? she's unintentionally murdering her own children, even in an attempt to keep them safe. she also looks down in this frame, either in shame or grief.. so beautifully done. 1:30 - 1:43 : i like how she plays with them but doesn't take over any of their roles. still participating, but nothing changes.. it's almost like she's not there, but maybe that's the norm for this family. 1:44 - 1:58 : surprisingly, not a lot to say here! obviously a lot to see, but my interpretation is fairly simple: this part of the PMV is dedicated to showing off the similarities, differences, and details of the characters. through their masks, outfits, expressions, motions -- you name it. the isolation of each character from the next gives you a nice sense of balance, while also handing the viewer a plethora of character-specific info without shoving it in their faces. i really like arlecchino's poses -- ESPECIALLY the one where she simply looks down as they do the 'claws out' pose -- oh man, so many reasons this can be, but i *do* have a favorite.. shame over your actual claws (moreso what they've done) can stop you fast and hard from showing them off to those you love. 1:59 - 2:04 : STARK contrast from the childish game setting before, and i love it so much man holy shit. instead of playful and monotone details, we get real life dropped on us like a goddamn avil. one chair, one person, one duty. one grave, two graves, three -- and the ghost which haunts arlecchino's thoughts. clervie has her full mask on in this frame -- JUST like the moment she died! really shows exactly *what* about her haunts arlecchino, what will remain in her heart forever. 2:05 - 2:13 : love how what brings us back from the arlecchino spotlight is the kids, and how the poses are the exact same from arlecchino too -- it's just that we now have the context to her prior thoughts and actions. 2:06 - 2:27 : this is such a masterfully crafted shot!! the spotlight and stage like she's on trial, the pale dead hands of the children whos lives and livelihood were taken because of her. yet she does not move, defend herself, nothing -- just stands and waits. chills, bro,, 2:27 - 2:34 : great fuck i love this shot SO MUCH dude. just one kid's coffin, zoomed in on, personal. then it gets bigger, and bigger, so many neither arlecchino nor the viewer can count the amount of coffins. but they never get any less detailed -- the lives her actions cost are as clear as ever to her and everybody else. 2:35 - 2:41 : and RIGHT after showing what she's done, we see the why -- maybe even the how? nevermind what we call it -- from her present actions straight to her past, and then to the 3 siblings.. oh it's so arlecchinover bro. parallels, patterns, generational trauma and linked events that only get worse -- we see it all come together here, all due to some clever planning and framework on the artist's part! 2:42 - end : not much to say here, other than it reminds me of the dream sweet in sea major animation of the magnus archives.. bro i love that animation SO much. okay, i lied, more to say. first of all, love the pop-up book background! back to the kids focus, and as such, back to the kids backgrounds.. eueuueghhh i love this so much bro. also, their poses!! lyney and lynette holding hands while lynette has to drag freminet to get him to come along, lyney leading while lynette stays in the middle of the conversation, and freminet almost getting lost.. tldr i love your work op great job!! sorry if i missed anything or got anything wrong.
Thank you so much for the detailed comment, wow! I’m very grateful it’s resonated with you to this degree. I really enjoyed reading through all your interpretations and observations, and there’s really no way for me to show you the depth of my gratitude. The least I can do is reply with the same kind of energy, even if I don’t have a whole lot to say that hasn’t already been said. 1. Lyney, Lynette, and Freminet all wear cat masks. Lyney’s nails and teeth are showings of his feline traits- just personal choices on my part. 2. Funnily enough, the shot between 1:21 - 1:29 is also my favorite! Mulled over whether to add the blood for a long while because I thought the shot could speak for itself without it, but I decided I wanted to highlight the grotesque & violent nature of the house instead. Just to drive it in. 3. One incrediblyyyyy small detail I doubt anyone would spot (but still want to talk about) is the inconsistency of the heart placement of Freminet’s mask. This was a deliberate choice! Not a mistake. Lyney and Lynette have symbols on opposite sides of their face, a star and a tear- making Freminet’s symbol sit on one or the other would have been me subconsciously saying that Freminet was closer to one sibling than the other. So, I decided to just make it alternate between a few shots. They’re a trio, and they care for each other equally. I won’t explain every little detail or choice, as I do enjoy letting people interpret choices with their own deliberations, but I applaud you for being able to make so many. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to write this. It makes all the hours spent laboring over this piece worth it
@@heyitspegkat I really love your attention to detail with all the siblings, understanding that their dynamic is a trio, even if Freminet has a much quieter role than other of his siblings he also has been in the house the longest of the three of them. And I think it shows with how he approaches his "work"
I love the little details in this pmv the way Lyney and Lynette switch positions when they say "Tell me so say" but Freminet doesn't. He just shakes his head and stays silent. like he knows something or someone (Crucabena) that they don't.
I love the dichotomy of having Arlecchino playing with the kids vs being alone on her throne and haunted. Almost like no matter how hard she tries she cant escape it. (I LOVE ARLECCHINO SO MUCH OH MY GOD SHES SO.. I DUNNO WRITEABLE? EVEN IF GENSHIN MISSED STUFF PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS ABLE TO DEVELOP HER I LOVE HER)
I love how Fremi is the one refusing to recount the story, as he would know why father is the way she is with rhe children because if him knowing the previous mother. I also love how the song is basically talking about letting kids be free to live life, and that sheltering them to keep them safe will only harm them, when in actuality, while the kids are free to do as they please (most likely) they are part of the fatui, and have mission they have to carry out, and father expects them to. Basically, father gives the orphans a somewhat better life by taking them in and giving them a purpose, but in actuality, everything they do is monitored, and everything has a purpose. Fremi knows this, but wont tell, father also knows, but wont yeild, hence why she simply stays silent.
AHHH THIS IS SO COOL!!! I love at 2:13 with all the children's hands pointing at Arle, this so perfectly encapsulates how she is in fact responsible for so much death and abuse, but also how she plays with the children and truly cares for them, even if she's still haunted by the past and making present mistakes! Sooo cool, love it, amazing work!
!!yap alert!! I absolutely love how you portrayed the sibling in their cat masks to match Lynette and how Freminet's was slightly different to show that even though they aren't immediate family they're still together and how at first it's just the siblings then goes to Arlecchino joining them too is such a nice touch- and at 1:55 I just noticed how as it swaps to each of them they slowly get more serious (like Lyney's was silly but Arlecchino's was serious) and with the "buried all your children" parts it showed all of her "children" that have been killed but the original lyrics could also fit because rabbits bury their children to try to protect them as well
I am absolutrely speechless. This is by far the best representation of the house's dynamic that I have seen. The visuals of Arlecchino's choices and responsibilities as a leader and a rolemodel for the children, as well as her having gone through traumas in her past are displayed very well. I don't know how to describe it but this spoke to me immensely, and I think this was the perfect song choice for their story.
This genuinely looks so cool during every bit of it, and I truly love how Arlecchino looks when she joins in on the game. Actually, I love how Arlecchino is shown throughout all of this. You're so good at animating and symbolism.
Also Idk if this was intended but I noticed that all the eyes of the masks match the normal expressions they have? Like Lyney’s mask has wide and almost happy eyes, Lynette is neutral, Freminet is shy and reclusive, Arlecchino is intimidating, Clervie is happy and innocent, and Pere is also happy and innocent but u can’t see the mask eyes when clervie dies
holy shit. this is INCREDIBLE good lord.. these guys are the only genshin characters i care even slightly about and this is THE BEST project ive ever seen with them in it
Saying that this is gorgeous is an understatement- The aesthetic is incredibly well done, the theme with Arlecchino's own way to perpetuate the cycle of violence despite everything is DELICIOUS, and there's all these little details even in the frame that I adore The song is such a perfect fit for this dysfunctional traumatized family holy crap
I can feel this animatic living in my mind for the next 10 years. Thank you so much for putting this out into the world, it scratched something in my brain that I didn’t know was itching
You did a great job of displaying each character's distinctive disposition despite using repeated templates, the subtle flourish of their tones and attitudes come through. Thanks for making this.
1:11 took me 10 rewatches to notice there's a slight design change to Lynette (the shirt underneath her bodysuit completely covers her chest and the necklace accessory is placed a bit lower. Looks better to be honest.)
This is INCREDIBLE. Lyney is my favorite character in genshin (other than nahida) and his dynamic with his siblings is one of Mt favorite things about him. This animatic also made me understand arle better!!!! I love all of their dynamics and how well you tied them all in together. Just AHHH THIS IS SO COOL!!!
I WILL NEVER STOP BEING ANNOYING ABOUT THIS ‼️‼️ I have been following the progress of this on instagram since day 1 and I am going INSANE rn. This is amazing oh my god
Gosh, I love this so much. Harpy Hare always gave me a HoH vibe. There's so, so many little details that I love! I love the "tell me so you say" part so much. It almost feels like the twins are trying to get information about the old house out of Fremi. Lyney with his siblings laying on him! At the center!! A stark contrast from Arle on the throne! I don't know if it was intended, but it gives a great view in how different Lyney and Arle are, espically since Lyney is the planned heir. Speaking of Lyney having his siblings on him, that subtle nod to Freminet when it goes "they will fight and run away" fits sooo amazingly??? The fact that Lyney feels like he's almost taunting Arle in some way is so scrumptious akfnssm
OMG I CAN’T TELL YOU HOW EXCITED I GOT WHEN THIS POPPED UP ON MY RECOMMENDED PAGE- I absolutely adore giving Lyney more cat like features like this sister since they’re twins (and for anyone wondering why Lynette is half cat and Lyney is not, he is also a cat folk since they’re twins, it’s just likely a recessive gene which only activated in Lynette. So Lyney also has the gene, it’s just dormant and not expressed in him. If we look at Diona and her dad, assuming they’re the same kind of cat folk as the twins, Diona has more cat features than her father-and this can be taken as that perhaps the gene is more likely to present in females over males. Thank you for listening to my random TedTalk.) AND ALSO USING FATHER’S PLUSH VERSION FOR HER ANIMAL FEATURES/MASK FITS SO WELL AND IS GENIUS- I LOVE THIS, ITS GENIUS AND GOLD OMG AND THE STYLE IS SO PERFECT TOO
IM GONNA BE ILL THIS IS SO PEAK OBMYOHFODDDDD ive been following the progress on this from insta obsessively this is so amazing i love everything abt ur art and i love this song im so glad other ppl also had the idea of this song mixed with the HOTH
i have never loved anything more than this, all the details to their masks, the border around it looking like a book page, even how the lyrics tragically fit them i love it a lot
I can't explain how much I love that you drew Lyney and Lynette sharing the sharp teeth. Both the idea of everyone having their respective masks to (presumably) represent their "role" in this video and the art style is all so interesting to me. I really like areas focusing on the way Arlecchino runs the House of the Hearth seeing as she likely strived to oppose of the Mother in more ways than one. She takes responsibility, as she should, with the events that have occurred within the House during her leading and I can respect her for that much. I feel like this scene especially showed that: 2:13
this animation has been living rent free in my head for like the whole week i have been coming back and LOSING MY MIND OVER THIS bless you for animating this
I got chills while watching this! I absolutely love Arlecchino and all of the members of the House of the Hearth, their story is just so *gestures* Anyway, I absolutely love your style and I want to hug every single one of them ^^
Oh it's beautiful and I can't believe someone had that much dedication to draw this. Not a genshin fan but even I can see the amount of effort pouring out of every single second of this animation
I First want to start of with, thank you. This animation had so much meaning and detail. I love how deep the story is and how much effort was put into this. This brought tears to my eyes, this made my whole day. Your extremely talented and just thinking of how long this would take?! You should be extremely proud of yourself, though I am a random stranger online just know that you had made someone on this world cry happy tears 💕
NOOOO😭😭 ARLECCHINO ANGST WILL BE THE END OF ME😔 but that aside(still sniffling from it), this is so good, like what😦‼️🔥 THANK YOU FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL ANIMATIC🎀🗣️💥
Oh my gosh? I cannot express how much I adore this. From the art style to the color palette to the designs and details this is simply amazing! The emotions and ideas it conveys are especially impressive without the upper face to help but I think everything comes across if not ‘muddled’ per se (which works for the characters) and even the intro through the curtains not only ties to Lyney and Lynette but really sells the storytelling vibe the song goes for, not to mention looks amazing! There’s more to say that other comments likely will and I can’t quite express but wow is this just perfect!! I’ll probably be coming back to watch this everytime I want to listen to this song now
I'm literally crying rn, it's sooooo good, touching and sharp like a knife (??), my heart is yours. thank you sooo soooo much for your work!! my favorite genshin animation :'[♡
i started crying while i was watching it,it’s just incredible...this video should be much more popular than it is now!! just an amazing job,author,i kiss your hands!! 😭😭🤌🏻💥
I adore this artstyle, animation details and personality that you can literally see by a single frame. Good soup. I like how it shows Arlecchino's role perfectly and how she had to get used to her children die or go away. The fingers pointing (just in my opinion!) at her showing how many see her as the one to look up to and that she CAN'T fail or make a tiny mistake. (I focused mainly on her cause I love her lore and yes I did love the whole animation don't yell please)
THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AAHAHHHHH I have been watching your WIPS from the start and I am so glad I stayed. I knew it was gonna be good because it was you, the artist. You are such a spectacular artist, I genuinely look up to you for inspiration. Thank you for making my baby Freminet so adorable in this. I love the fact you used Arlecchino's rabbit plush for the mask, that's a really neat detail. AND THE SCENE WHEN SHES PLAYING WITH HER CHILDHOOD FRIEND??? ITS SO WELL DONE WHAT Thank you for making such a beautiful piece, you are such an amazing artist ❤
THIS SONG SO RELATABLE TO THEM😢 This is wonderful work, and full lot of exiting meanings and signs, i don't even know why but this video makes me cry. So touching by heart ❤️
THIS IS SO SO SO SO SOOOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! you did such an amazing job with this animation it brought tears to my eyes. I also absolutely adore how creative this is, from the masks to the visuals. I'm super excited to see more of your work!!! I don't doubt it'll be any less amazing than this masterpiece
I absolutely adore deep sea encore and i first read it when i was getting back into genshin and discovered fontaine was out!! The way you have portrayed these three throughout this video and in general is genuinely incredible, your art is beautiful and so is the way you write ❤ You got me attached to this trio both game wise and encore wise and i have definitely shed a few tears over one of them 😭 all your work is amazing and i can't wait to see more in the future!!
I’m not sure how to describe this artpiece. It’s just..perfect? Beautiful? I’m not sure. But I love it. Arlecchino’s story quest broke me (I guess I’m just extremely sensitive or something, my head hurt like crazy, especially the ending) because I felt absolutely horrible for her. She’s why I started Genshin, so watching that story quest… hh (although even if it was any other character, I likely would’ve had a similar reaction). I love the colors you chose, it’s just amazing. Like I can’t think of words to describe it. I wish hadn’t left this in watch later for maybe a week or few. thank you for making this amazing master piece :)
SOBBING SCREAMING CRYING THIS IS SO GOOD. Never going to stop rewatching this I love the Hearth siblings sm and oh how you have fueled my thoughts about Arlecchino and her past and her present and how she manages the House and the children AAAAAA. Amazing work 👍
2:25 when Marsons fault from knocking 5th grades door and 6th grades door and always touch the bulletin board and stuff and swearing but Marson changed.
okay pardon the long ass comment this is just gonna be me exploding about everything in this video and half analyzing it (mostly yapping though)
before i get into the actual events in the PMV (and how beautifully they're executed), i want to bring up some character design choices that i really liked. lyney's sharp teeth is one of my favorite because it may have two meanings -- it could be a feline trait he shares with lynette (this was the first idea to pop in my head) or a canine trait due to his mask being a,, fox..??? I DONT KNOW WHAT ANIMALS ARE :(
while all the mask choices are really clever, my personal favorite is clervie being a rabbit and arlecchino being a hare. so close yet so, so different.
on to the actual video!
0:00 - 0:16 : while their poses are all the same, their facial expressions are all distinct in a way that really shows off who they are as characters/people. lyney is confident (if not showy), lynette follows the base pose well but doesn't add any flare like lyney does, and freminet more than often shies away from the camera. small details matter, and you got every last one down perfect.
0:17 - 0:44 : i don't have a lot to say here about the expressions and poses that i hadn't before, even though i *want* to try and grow extra braincells to unpack why who's asking about harpy hair to who (and why lyney and lynette change places though freminet doesn't), i just don't have those braincells right now. instead, i want to bring up the artistic direction here. i really really REALLY like the simple background choice -- complexity of the background is already covered by the paper texture and surrounding brackets, so you went for small patches of grass and flowers instead; what a smart choice! besides not crowding the eyes and being visually pleasing, it benefits us by contributing to the story being told here: one of children, told by children, about children. while it doesn't have an air of childlike innocence or wonder about it, it's simple and direct, something the story here is not.. excellent choice!! reminds me a lot of the "orange scene" from reverse:1999.

1:30 - 1:43 : i like how she plays with them but doesn't take over any of their roles. still participating, but nothing changes.. it's almost like she's not there, but maybe that's the norm for this family.
1:44 - 1:58 : surprisingly, not a lot to say here! obviously a lot to see, but my interpretation is fairly simple: this part of the PMV is dedicated to showing off the similarities, differences, and details of the characters. through their masks, outfits, expressions, motions -- you name it. the isolation of each character from the next gives you a nice sense of balance, while also handing the viewer a plethora of character-specific info without shoving it in their faces. i really like arlecchino's poses -- ESPECIALLY the one where she simply looks down as they do the 'claws out' pose -- oh man, so many reasons this can be, but i *do* have a favorite.. shame over your actual claws (moreso what they've done) can stop you fast and hard from showing them off to those you love.
1:59 - 2:04 : STARK contrast from the childish game setting before, and i love it so much man holy shit. instead of playful and monotone details, we get real life dropped on us like a goddamn avil. one chair, one person, one duty. one grave, two graves, three -- and the ghost which haunts arlecchino's thoughts. clervie has her full mask on in this frame -- JUST like the moment she died! really shows exactly *what* about her haunts arlecchino, what will remain in her heart forever.
2:05 - 2:13 : love how what brings us back from the arlecchino spotlight is the kids, and how the poses are the exact same from arlecchino too -- it's just that we now have the context to her prior thoughts and actions.
2:06 - 2:27 : this is such a masterfully crafted shot!! the spotlight and stage like she's on trial, the pale dead hands of the children whos lives and livelihood were taken because of her. yet she does not move, defend herself, nothing -- just stands and waits. chills, bro,,
2:27 - 2:34 : great fuck i love this shot SO MUCH dude. just one kid's coffin, zoomed in on, personal. then it gets bigger, and bigger, so many neither arlecchino nor the viewer can count the amount of coffins. but they never get any less detailed -- the lives her actions cost are as clear as ever to her and everybody else.
2:35 - 2:41 : and RIGHT after showing what she's done, we see the why -- maybe even the how? nevermind what we call it -- from her present actions straight to her past, and then to the 3 siblings.. oh it's so arlecchinover bro. parallels, patterns, generational trauma and linked events that only get worse -- we see it all come together here, all due to some clever planning and framework on the artist's part!
2:42 - end : not much to say here, other than it reminds me of the dream sweet in sea major animation of the magnus archives.. bro i love that animation SO much. okay, i lied, more to say. first of all, love the pop-up book background! back to the kids focus, and as such, back to the kids backgrounds.. eueuueghhh i love this so much bro. also, their poses!! lyney and lynette holding hands while lynette has to drag freminet to get him to come along, lyney leading while lynette stays in the middle of the conversation, and freminet almost getting lost..

YES, YES, YES, I LOVE HER SOOOO MUUUUCHHHH😢😢😢😭😭😭😭💞
SAMEEE
I FEEL GAY NOW😭
@@garryencena2032 I ALWAYS FEEL THAT WAY

Josuke
THIS CHANGED MY LIFE THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS. Seriously I was following it’s progress on Instagram and was so hyped for it, it turned out SO well.
hellu Albedo :)))))))
Hi elevator !!
@@NgọcMinhPhan-o7f Hi size Venti/Barbeque/Benadryl/papa toes/barbatoes/barbietoes/barbie ate toes/barsibatos/Mr.IGetDrunkAllDay
hi there alvin!! ☺️☺️ :3
Hello albedo
I love how Fremi is the one refusing to recount the story, as he would know why father is the way she is with rhe children because if him knowing the previous mother. I also love how the song is basically talking about letting kids be free to live life, and that sheltering them to keep them safe will only harm them, when in actuality, while the kids are free to do as they please (most likely) they are part of the fatui, and have mission they have to carry out, and father expects them to.
Basically, father gives the orphans a somewhat better life by taking them in and giving them a purpose, but in actuality, everything they do is monitored, and everything has a purpose. Fremi knows this, but wont tell, father also knows, but wont yeild, hence why she simply stays silent.
AHHH THIS IS SO COOL!!! I love at 2:13 with all the children's hands pointing at Arle, this so perfectly encapsulates how she is in fact responsible for so much death and abuse, but also how she plays with the children and truly cares for them, even if she's still haunted by the past and making present mistakes! Sooo cool, love it, amazing work!
!!yap alert!! I absolutely love how you portrayed the sibling in their cat masks to match Lynette and how Freminet's was slightly different to show that even though they aren't immediate family they're still together and how at first it's just the siblings then goes to Arlecchino joining them too is such a nice touch- and at 1:55 I just noticed how as it swaps to each of them they slowly get more serious (like Lyney's was silly but Arlecchino's was serious) and with the "buried all your children" parts it showed all of her "children" that have been killed but the original lyrics could also fit because rabbits bury their children to try to protect them as well
It was not he who depicted it
I am absolutrely speechless. This is by far the best representation of the house's dynamic that I have seen. The visuals of Arlecchino's choices and responsibilities as a leader and a rolemodel for the children, as well as her having gone through traumas in her past are displayed very well. I don't know how to describe it but this spoke to me immensely, and I think this was the perfect song choice for their story.
This genuinely looks so cool during every bit of it, and I truly love how Arlecchino looks when she joins in on the game. Actually, I love how Arlecchino is shown throughout all of this. You're so good at animating and symbolism.
this is singlehandedly the best creation to ever come out of the genshin impact fandom. absolutely gorgeous.
I love this so much! Also I know it’s against but the way Lynette is lying like a cat under Lyney’s arm is adorable
Also Idk if this was intended but I noticed that all the eyes of the masks match the normal expressions they have? Like Lyney’s mask has wide and almost happy eyes, Lynette is neutral, Freminet is shy and reclusive, Arlecchino is intimidating, Clervie is happy and innocent, and Pere is also happy and innocent but u can’t see the mask eyes when clervie dies
2:34 NO THE GRAVES MADE ME SO SADDNKFF
holy shit. this is INCREDIBLE good lord.. these guys are the only genshin characters i care even slightly about and this is THE BEST project ive ever seen with them in it
2:50 neuvillette🥺
BRO THIS SONG FITS THEM SM ESPECIALLY ARLECCHINO AND HER NOT BEING ABLE TO KEEP ALL HER CHILDREN SAFE😭😭😭
THIS IS AMAZING
Saying that this is gorgeous is an understatement-
The aesthetic is incredibly well done, the theme with Arlecchino's own way to perpetuate the cycle of violence despite everything is DELICIOUS, and there's all these little details even in the frame that I adore
The song is such a perfect fit for this dysfunctional traumatized family holy crap
i hope yaelokre sees thisss
I can feel this animatic living in my mind for the next 10 years. Thank you so much for putting this out into the world, it scratched something in my brain that I didn’t know was itching
I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME THIS IS THE GENSHIN IMPACT ANIMATION EVER
You did a great job of displaying each character's distinctive disposition despite using repeated templates, the subtle flourish of their tones and attitudes come through.
Thanks for making this.
0:51 this is so wholesomee
The poses, the mask designs, the idea!! Everything about this is wonderful. You are THE house of hearth artist.
2:42
AAAAA THEY LOOK SO SILLY HERE I LOVE ITTTTT 🥺🥺🥺🥺
I love how you added the leviathan dragon to represent Neuvillette in dragon form
а где там Невиллет? я просто не вижу..
@@user-vv6zx3qm2v 2:49, during you'll see a long blue dragon
1:11 took me 10 rewatches to notice there's a slight design change to Lynette (the shirt underneath her bodysuit completely covers her chest and the necklace accessory is placed a bit lower. Looks better to be honest.)
0:35 I'm a 100% sure that this part is just Lyney and Lynnette trying to discover who's Freminet's crush
HAHA
This is INCREDIBLE. Lyney is my favorite character in genshin (other than nahida) and his dynamic with his siblings is one of Mt favorite things about him. This animatic also made me understand arle better!!!! I love all of their dynamics and how well you tied them all in together. Just AHHH THIS IS SO COOL!!!
(other than nahida) is so true tho 😭😭
I WILL NEVER STOP BEING ANNOYING ABOUT THIS ‼️‼️ I have been following the progress of this on instagram since day 1 and I am going INSANE rn. This is amazing oh my god
I have watched this like 5 times and counting already oops lol
Gosh, I love this so much. Harpy Hare always gave me a HoH vibe. There's so, so many little details that I love!
I love the "tell me so you say" part so much. It almost feels like the twins are trying to get information about the old house out of Fremi.
Lyney with his siblings laying on him! At the center!! A stark contrast from Arle on the throne! I don't know if it was intended, but it gives a great view in how different Lyney and Arle are, espically since Lyney is the planned heir.
Speaking of Lyney having his siblings on him, that subtle nod to Freminet when it goes "they will fight and run away" fits sooo amazingly??? The fact that Lyney feels like he's almost taunting Arle in some way is so scrumptious akfnssm
1:23 why did you have to make me cry, this is a rare occurrence for me 😭
It's been at least a month since I've cried :(
Same, but for me it's been ages since l cried.
You’ve made a Lyney main proud!!!
OMG I CAN’T TELL YOU HOW EXCITED I GOT WHEN THIS POPPED UP ON MY RECOMMENDED PAGE-
I absolutely adore giving Lyney more cat like features like this sister since they’re twins (and for anyone wondering why Lynette is half cat and Lyney is not, he is also a cat folk since they’re twins, it’s just likely a recessive gene which only activated in Lynette. So Lyney also has the gene, it’s just dormant and not expressed in him. If we look at Diona and her dad, assuming they’re the same kind of cat folk as the twins, Diona has more cat features than her father-and this can be taken as that perhaps the gene is more likely to present in females over males. Thank you for listening to my random TedTalk.) AND ALSO USING FATHER’S PLUSH VERSION FOR HER ANIMAL FEATURES/MASK FITS SO WELL AND IS GENIUS-
I LOVE THIS, ITS GENIUS AND GOLD OMG AND THE STYLE IS SO PERFECT TOO
IM GONNA BE ILL THIS IS SO PEAK OBMYOHFODDDDD ive been following the progress on this from insta obsessively this is so amazing i love everything abt ur art and i love this song im so glad other ppl also had the idea of this song mixed with the HOTH
i have never loved anything more than this, all the details to their masks, the border around it looking like a book page, even how the lyrics tragically fit them i love it a lot
I can't explain how much I love that you drew Lyney and Lynette sharing the sharp teeth. Both the idea of everyone having their respective masks to (presumably) represent their "role" in this video and the art style is all so interesting to me. I really like areas focusing on the way Arlecchino runs the House of the Hearth seeing as she likely strived to oppose of the Mother in more ways than one. She takes responsibility, as she should, with the events that have occurred within the House during her leading and I can respect her for that much. I feel like this scene especially showed that: 2:13
I loved this, it looks so good! And the song fits a bit with Arlecchino’s and her children of the House of the Hearth
this animation has been living rent free in my head for like the whole week i have been coming back and LOSING MY MIND OVER THIS bless you for animating this
I got chills while watching this! I absolutely love Arlecchino and all of the members of the House of the Hearth, their story is just so *gestures* Anyway, I absolutely love your style and I want to hug every single one of them ^^
Oh it's beautiful and I can't believe someone had that much dedication to draw this. Not a genshin fan but even I can see the amount of effort pouring out of every single second of this animation
this is making me feel things that are both so human and so beyond human understanding oh wow
THE THRONE PART 2:00???
YAYYYY HOUSE OF THE HEARTH ANIMATIC TO HARPY HARE LETS GO
Lyney with the fangs is sooo cute 🫶🫶
THE GRAVES???? OMG I ADORE THIS
I First want to start of with, thank you. This animation had so much meaning and detail. I love how deep the story is and how much effort was put into this. This brought tears to my eyes, this made my whole day. Your extremely talented and just thinking of how long this would take?! You should be extremely proud of yourself, though I am a random stranger online just know that you had made someone on this world cry happy tears 💕
I love your artstyle pls dont explode
Hello what
NOOOO😭😭 ARLECCHINO ANGST WILL BE THE END OF ME😔 but that aside(still sniffling from it), this is so good, like what😦‼️🔥 THANK YOU FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL ANIMATIC🎀🗣️💥
Oh my gosh? I cannot express how much I adore this. From the art style to the color palette to the designs and details this is simply amazing! The emotions and ideas it conveys are especially impressive without the upper face to help but I think everything comes across if not ‘muddled’ per se (which works for the characters) and even the intro through the curtains not only ties to Lyney and Lynette but really sells the storytelling vibe the song goes for, not to mention looks amazing! There’s more to say that other comments likely will and I can’t quite express but wow is this just perfect!!
I’ll probably be coming back to watch this everytime I want to listen to this song now
I'm literally crying rn, it's sooooo good, touching and sharp like a knife (??), my heart is yours. thank you sooo soooo much for your work!! my favorite genshin animation :'[♡
OMG THIS IS SO CUTE AND I LOVE FREMINET’S POSE AT 0:46 😭😭 💛❤️🩵
REAL I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO MENTION HOW CUTE IT IS
This fits them so perfectly and it's so well-made and you even matched the style??? Amazing
THIS IS WHY I'VE BEEN THINKING SINCE I HEARD THIS U HAVE FILLED THE VOID I NEEDED FILLED
THE VOID HAS BEEN FILLED
ВАУ ЭТО ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО, ВАША ЗАДУМКА ТАК ПОДХОДИТ К МУЗЫКЕ, У ВАС ЗАМЕЧАТЕЛЬНО ПОЛУЧИЛОСЬ!!🧡
The fact that you colored this whole animation is amazing, I love this sm

I love this so much, your art is amazing!!
i started crying while i was watching it,it’s just incredible...this video should be much more popular than it is now!! just an amazing job,author,i kiss your hands!! 😭😭🤌🏻💥
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.
THIS IS SO GOOD, YOURE A GENIUS 😭 THE ART OH MY AAAAAAAAAHHHHH
DUDEE, I HAD BEEN IMAGINING THIS IN MY HEAD BUT I’M JUST NOT TALENTED IN ANIMATION, THANK YOU FOR THIS.
What a wonderful piece of art. Major props to you Peg, the love you poured into this is very obvious 💚
This is an absolute masterpiece, Thank you for putting so much effort into bringing it to life !
I adore this artstyle, animation details and personality that you can literally see by a single frame. Good soup.
I like how it shows Arlecchino's role perfectly and how she had to get used to her children die or go away. The fingers pointing (just in my opinion!) at her showing how many see her as the one to look up to and that she CAN'T fail or make a tiny mistake. (I focused mainly on her cause I love her lore and yes I did love the whole animation don't yell please)
THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AAHAHHHHH I have been watching your WIPS from the start and I am so glad I stayed. I knew it was gonna be good because it was you, the artist. You are such a spectacular artist, I genuinely look up to you for inspiration. Thank you for making my baby Freminet so adorable in this.
I love the fact you used Arlecchino's rabbit plush for the mask, that's a really neat detail. AND THE SCENE WHEN SHES PLAYING WITH HER CHILDHOOD FRIEND??? ITS SO WELL DONE WHAT
Thank you for making such a beautiful piece, you are such an amazing artist ❤
That’s so nice😭 thank you for your kind words and for seeing me as an inspiration. Glad you liked the animatic as well
ГОСПОДИ ЭТО ИДЕАЛЬНО,ТАК ЛЮБЛЮ АРЛЕКИНО И ЭТУ ТРОИЦУ,РИСОВКА ПРОСТО ШИКАРНАЯ,АВТОР ВЫ ЛУЧШИЙ😭🙏❤❤

THIS SONG SO RELATABLE TO THEM😢
This is wonderful work, and full lot of exiting meanings and signs, i don't even know why but this video makes me cry. So touching by heart ❤️
IM LITERALLY SOBBING RN BECAUSE THESE ARE MY TWO MOST RECENT HYPERFIXATIONS AND THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
THIS IS SO SO SO SO SOOOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! you did such an amazing job with this animation it brought tears to my eyes. I also absolutely adore how creative this is, from the masks to the visuals. I'm super excited to see more of your work!!! I don't doubt it'll be any less amazing than this masterpiece
Yoooo amazing! Love your animation!
I absolutely adore deep sea encore and i first read it when i was getting back into genshin and discovered fontaine was out!! The way you have portrayed these three throughout this video and in general is genuinely incredible, your art is beautiful and so is the way you write ❤
You got me attached to this trio both game wise and encore wise and i have definitely shed a few tears over one of them 😭 all your work is amazing and i can't wait to see more in the future!!
This has to be one of the best animatics I've gotten to watched. You've done such an amazing job on this. The art is so well done and beautiful.
MY LYNEY COSPLAY JUST ARRIVED 🔥🔥🔥
Genuinely such a beautiful animatic, stunning artwork and style of the whole work❤
THIS IS SO COOL!!!!
GOD THAT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ANIMATIC I EVER SEEN!!!!
AWESOME WORK!!!
IVE BEEN BEYOND EXCITED FOR THIS AND IM SO AMAZED BY THE END RESULT OH MY GODDD
I’m not sure how to describe this artpiece. It’s just..perfect? Beautiful? I’m not sure. But I love it. Arlecchino’s story quest broke me (I guess I’m just extremely sensitive or something, my head hurt like crazy, especially the ending) because I felt absolutely horrible for her. She’s why I started Genshin, so watching that story quest… hh (although even if it was any other character, I likely would’ve had a similar reaction).
I love the colors you chose, it’s just amazing. Like I can’t think of words to describe it. I wish hadn’t left this in watch later for maybe a week or few.
thank you for making this amazing master piece :)
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR CENTURIES (literally saw every wip u posted), absolutely amazing, 11/10
SOBBING SCREAMING CRYING THIS IS SO GOOD. Never going to stop rewatching this I love the Hearth siblings sm and oh how you have fueled my thoughts about Arlecchino and her past and her present and how she manages the House and the children AAAAAA. Amazing work 👍
I'm in actual tears omg... it's so beautiful. Like, aesthetically and in tone/mood? Wonderfully done!!!💜
no i feel so bad i want to hug all of them and tell them it's okay
Why is this done so brilliantly!?..
THE BEST CONBINATION (i love this video so much, is so cute but sad and the creative freedoms are perfect)
I dont know didly about genshin impact. But this is INCREDIBLE OH MY GOD
I WAS ON THE VERGE OF TEARS. I HAVE GOOSEBUMPS. HOW CAN THAT BE SO EMOTIONAL FOR REAL OMG.
This is actually the best thing I've ever seen, thank you for blessing my eyes Kat
IM ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED WITH THIS, IVE BEEN EXCITED SINCE IVE SEEN SNIPS AND PIECES AND IM SO EXCITED NOW THAT ITS FINALLY FINISHED❤❤❤
IM OBSESSED. WITH THIS. AND THE INTROSPECTION ON THE HEARTH DISCUSSION. The hole that is ever deep,,
THIS IS SO COOL! I LOVE THE IDEA AND ART STYLE!!!
I WILL NEVER BE SAD EVER AGAIN BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO EXISTENCE
Sooo happy im here before this blows up!! Its just goregous and so beautifully executed!
it is "father, tell me so I say" infact.
AJSHHHWHEHWB THIS IS AMAZING!! I LOVE THE IDEA SO MUCHH AGHHHHHH

I might have cried to thid but its amazing I LOVE ITTT
THIS IS STUNNING ON SO MANY WAYS not only the art is amazing but how arlecchino takes on the role of the harpy hare oughhh im sick /pos
This is so beautiful! Can't even imagine how much effort must've gone into this, i love it so much!!!
HELLO?? THIS IS SO GOOD??
