Hidden Points ;) 1:15 - Rose's internet is bad 2:16 - Gunshot, Knight of Time 2:44 - Calliborn and Calliope 2:45 - OBEY 3:15 - Jane's face 3:34 - Their faces 3:35 - Rainbow drinker 3:37 - Karkat is crying 3:38 - Box 3:39~3:41 - Dead eyes 3:42 - Gamzee's eyes 3:44 - Half body
I never noticed Kanaya's glowing, or Karkat's crying, and I always assumed that Rose at the beginning was just a bad drawing. Also, I liked how some characters (Rose at the beginning) have ways to get into rolling (Skaia gate) and then there's Roxy who just pops into frame like the void player she is.
MxMakersLA its actually kind of a depressing song so having it combined with silly homestuck shenanigans is kind of jarring even then, without really understanding it, it kind of works alright as a background track for this
This really does symbolize it how everyone was normal while john started uncoordinated but becomes more coordinated by the end he is a jumping everywhere doing advanced moves
Yeah I really liked those little bits. Rose started off strong but was fuzzy. John, whenever alone, is stumbling until he gets his shit together with terezi. Dave and Jade rolling in sync when john was doing his hero business. Grindark Rose rolling with doc scratch.. Jane starting off strong but with the second flash of the cals and OBEY showing that she's anything but in control. Lots of little detail that shows how things in Homestuck went
I'm crying because doomed!Dave a.k.a Davesprite appeared during the part of the song where Miku sings "ahh shippai, mou shippai." Which means "Ahh I failed, failed again." UGHHH I want to hug Davesprite so bad T_T
There is something inexplicably touching about seeing how John goes from tumbling painfully, to rolling, to tumbling again, to landing perfectly. And the Dave+Future Rose/Dave/Davesprite sequence goes ouch
Man, that part where Dave and Rose are rolling, followed by Rose disappearing and Dave turning to Davesprite gives me chills every time. Really nice recreation of major events here.
I turn 17 this year and I am going to make a huuuge YOUTH ROLL next year into adulthood, I hope that I can still enjoy things like Homestuck when I get to college and eventually my job. For the beginning of 2023, I want to enjoy this fandom and rejoice with the reminaing Homestucks while I still can. I love Homestuck, and I love all of you. Thank you for keeping the fandom alive long enough for people like me to discover it
Another adult here to tell you that's entirely possible :D I've recently rejoined the fandom after a long break to realize that i like Homestuck even more than ever :') it's interesting to look at things when you're older, as you can give it a deeper thought based on your life experience. I honestly feel like i understand some characters so much better these days and i completely changed my opinion about the ones i used not to care about at all In any case, good luck on your journey ✨ sending much love and support your way, stay awesome :D
I love the faint Terezi next to John at 3:27 bc she was guiding him through the retcon via scarf instructions. Also their faces appearing on screen with the like half Terezi half John, it's just *chefs kiss*
*cries for a million years* D: when rose fades away while Dave becomes davesprite !!! Oowww my heart... OMG and it always comes back to John in the end.. and terezi guiding him ;'0 my heeeeart
Man, I remember finding this fandom years ago. If it wasn't for this fandom, I wouldn't have a majority of my friends, and may not be here. It's kind of funny how something so minuscule can change a persons whole life. I may not be a hardcore Homestuck anymore, but I still love it, and if it wasn't for Homestuck I think I'd be missing something in my life. It may sound like an over-exaggeration but it's the truth. To think it all started from a thirteen year old man in his room, on his birthday. Zoosmell pooplord
I really like how you added the way John still tumbles at 1:14, even though at that point of the song, the first character is supposed to be rolling. To me, it seems like it's describing the way the first -(and second act?)- act is like a tutorial, and John has zero clue what he's doing, but Rose does. I like it, it's new
this makes me happy to see the fandom is still alive. even after the ending of our 7 years of awesomeness. i don't want this fandom to die because it's like a real family with you guys. by the way this was beautifully animated
The attention to detail is astounding! Eridan flying in half. Karkat crying, the eyes going white, Sollux's eye change. Also Vriska at the end of her flip holding the box.
Ethan Rajczak Yeah I love all of these details here's one more ; After Gamzee picks john back up, his eyes go red in the last frame before he leaves ! CREEPY
This is very cute but I feel compelled to point out that like half of those characters can fly and could stop perpetually falling down a hill at any time.
This is pretty much the story of Homestuck's characters in the form of them rolling around. And John eating dirt for like 40% of it. I'm honestly not sure if I wanna cry histerically or rejoice but characters simply fading out are making me feel way more feelings than they should. Also I approve of Jade's height headcanon at the end XD
THIS IS SO CRAZY SYMBOLIC DUDE IM AT WORK AND MY HEART HURTS BECAUSE OF THIS??? I love this sooo much.. I think it might be my new favorite homestuck animation. Like for serious.
THERE'S SO MANY DETAILS. Like Caliborn/Calliope's shadows in the OBEY flashes with Jane, or Karkat crying in the split second before he's off screen, or Dave's god tier being visible before he completely fades out with the bullet wounds, etc etc etc. Love the bits with Rose, she's my fave, and the bit with GO Terezi and John. Oh man 10/10
Maybe it's just how I'm seeing it, but when Caliborn is rolling, I see him FLIPPING BACKWARDS, STILL GOING DOWN THE HILL, GODTEIRING, WITH THE SPIN, AND STICKS THE LANDING! ;-; Ten Points.
The beatdown and the events leading to her finally keeling over into her own self-drawn chalk outline made me screech in genuine distress, curse the church of Faygo, screech some more, then dissolve into fits of laughter because _of course Terezi would still have enough steam left to steal Jade's shoes, fly off to Roxy's planet, mediate between her and John, _*_and_*_ write down a retconning to-do list_ despite enduring a one-sided mauling and a knife to the gut
This just got recommended to me again after three whole years. In that time, my life has changed so much. I finished homestuck for starters ;). This is really bringing back good memories. Thank you for making this. (Also this is an amazing animation!!!)

Thanks for reading ^^'
This is so awesome, i'm crying ;-; I finished homestuck for the first time yesterday and noticing all the hidden stuff in this vid is so satisfying! Ty for making this vid
This is really really good, even for a meme/base animation. You add enough stuff on your own that it becomes unique and interesting, especially towards the end of the video, where more and more characters show up. It's very well done.
Hidden Points ;)
1:15 - Rose's internet is bad
2:16 - Gunshot, Knight of Time
2:44 - Calliborn and Calliope
2:45 - OBEY
3:15 - Jane's face
3:34 - Their faces
3:35 - Rainbow drinker
3:37 - Karkat is crying
3:38 - Box
3:39~3:41 - Dead eyes
3:42 - Gamzee's eyes
3:44 - Half body
Wow

Also, I liked how some characters (Rose at the beginning) have ways to get into rolling (Skaia gate) and then there's Roxy who just pops into frame like the void player she is.
awsome, i dont underestand the song, but maybe the concept
The part at 3:41 where John caught Tavros was adorable
MxMakersLA its actually kind of a depressing song so having it combined with silly homestuck shenanigans is kind of jarring
even then, without really understanding it, it kind of works alright as a background track for this
"I am bad at English" *speaks it more fluently than alot of people who grew up with English being their first language*
*a lot
Case and bloody point xD
@@tenorHarlequin🤓☝️
John: let's roll down this hill, see what happens
John: let's play this game, see what happens
Same thing
This really does symbolize it how everyone was normal while john started uncoordinated but becomes more coordinated by the end he is a jumping everywhere doing advanced moves
Yeah I really liked those little bits. Rose started off strong but was fuzzy. John, whenever alone, is stumbling until he gets his shit together with terezi. Dave and Jade rolling in sync when john was doing his hero business. Grindark Rose rolling with doc scratch..
Jane starting off strong but with the second flash of the cals and OBEY showing that she's anything but in control.
Lots of little detail that shows how things in Homestuck went
Aye
What she says: “This was a beautiful animation”
What she’s thinking: I WARNED YOU ABOUT THE STAIRS BRO
It KeEpS hApPeNiNg
I'm crying because doomed!Dave a.k.a Davesprite appeared during the part of the song where Miku sings "ahh shippai, mou shippai." Which means "Ahh I failed, failed again." UGHHH I want to hug Davesprite so bad T_T
I put up with the whole animation but this was the part where I got emotional
There is something inexplicably touching about seeing how John goes from tumbling painfully, to rolling, to tumbling again, to landing perfectly.
And the Dave+Future Rose/Dave/Davesprite sequence goes ouch
I think every fandom deserves a rolling girl animatic..I love these so much
The fucking attention to detail and refference to the actual series is astounding
You know thinking about it. Even though John and Feferi never met I bet they would have got along very well.
Huh, now that you said it, you are right.
THE WAY IT SWITCHED TO ALPHA WHEN THE SONG SCRATCHED AND THE WAY JOHN DANCES THROUGH ALL HIS FRIENDS AT THE END I AM SCREAMING PLEASE
John: I must be dreaming in anime again.
Out of All The Rolling Girl Parodies this one is probably the Best one in terms of references to the story of Homestuck.
Man, that part where Dave and Rose are rolling, followed by Rose disappearing and Dave turning to Davesprite gives me chills every time. Really nice recreation of major events here.
I WARNED YOU ABOUT THE STAIRS
I like how John's eats shit the whole time, but Rose has no fucks to give.
This also feels like the end credits for an anime. Great work.
there's something quite heartwarming at seeing john perfectly rolling down at the end when at the start he was really bad at it
I turn 17 this year and I am going to make a huuuge YOUTH ROLL next year into adulthood, I hope that I can still enjoy things like Homestuck when I get to college and eventually my job.

This takes youth roll to an entirely new level
why am i crying,, its just,, characters rolling down..
FR THOO 😭
I know this meme is years old at this point but you put SO MUCH effort and details into it!! It still holds up til this day!
PREACH-
I love the faint Terezi next to John at 3:27 bc she was guiding him through the retcon via scarf instructions. Also their faces appearing on screen with the like half Terezi half John, it's just *chefs kiss*
i TOLD you man, i TOLD you about stairs
Awww, feferi and johns interaction was adorable
*cries for a million years*
D: when rose fades away while Dave becomes davesprite !!!
Oowww my heart...
OMG and it always comes back to John in the end.. and terezi guiding him ;'0 my heeeeart

No worries, I feel the same way.
truly amazing what a comic can do
I TOLD YOU BOUT THOSE STAIRS MAN!
It just keeps happening...
I really like how you added the way John still tumbles at 1:14, even though at that point of the song, the first character is supposed to be rolling. To me, it seems like it's describing the way the first -(and second act?)- act is like a tutorial, and John has zero clue what he's doing, but Rose does. I like it, it's new
3:54 Jade is smol
I warned you bout that hill, man
Suddenly i'm eleven again watching homestuck lyricstuck on youtube after school
REALRWAL REEALL!1!1
*YOUTH ROLL 3000*
this makes me happy to see the fandom is still alive. even after the ending of our 7 years of awesomeness. i don't want this fandom to die because it's like a real family with you guys. by the way this was beautifully animated
Kennedi Loury
But with the Homestuck Amino and Hiveswap coming out soon we won't die :D
The attention to detail is astounding! Eridan flying in half. Karkat crying, the eyes going white, Sollux's eye change. Also Vriska at the end of her flip holding the box.
Ethan Rajczak Yeah I love all of these details here's one more ; After Gamzee picks john back up, his eyes go red in the last frame before he leaves ! CREEPY
I warned you about the hills, bro!
8^y
This is very cute but I feel compelled to point out that like half of those characters can fly and could stop perpetually falling down a hill at any time.
...was anybody else kina half-expecting it to turn into one giant set of stairs, with the warning bit written in the background?
someone should make that ._.
What?
A beautiful video of homestuck...
That's actually fairly recent?
Amazing... don't see many of those nowadays.
tipsyMatador Dont you mean just roll with it?
Miku Hatsune is a valid kid name.
Isnt her last name too long?
Looliya2 nope, crocker has seven letters as well
Strider, Lalonde and English are all also seven letters
@@oxymoronmeringue oof yeah I know I was thinking about John's last name when I wrote that xdd
I love this so much, the transitions are amazing and all the references are making me hella nostalgic.
I didn't think a bunch of doofuses rolling down a hill could relay so much emotion, but, well, here we are.
This is pretty much the story of Homestuck's characters in the form of them rolling around. And John eating dirt for like 40% of it.
I'm honestly not sure if I wanna cry histerically or rejoice but characters simply fading out are making me feel way more feelings than they should.
Also I approve of Jade's height headcanon at the end XD
I like how everyone’s just rolling and how John seems to be the main one to appear
Entire Homestuck story in 4 minuets
All the little details aww my god my heart hurts I miss homestuck so much now tysm for this awesome nostalgic video
loved the character flashes at the end! idc that homestuck is past its days, this is still goregeous :)
They do be youth rollin' tho 😳😳😳
This might be the most clever animation for this song out there
guys it’s just one big youth roll
30000+ views!!!!! Really thanks for you TT....Homestuck never die!!!!!
I love this video so much
me too Mituna me too
PAN sori Such a good video 😋👌
PAN sori first this comment has Karkat likes second the last frame is my new screenie
The part with Feferi is so adorable
1:00 I WARNED YOU ABOUT THOSE STAIRS
it's amazing how emotional a simple animation of kids rolling down a hill can make me. VERY GOOD I LOVE IT.
Homestuck is now like the last leaf on a sakura. Beautiful but fading. But I still remember and I won't forget
cicada keep Thank you Cicada Keep, very cool!
THIS IS SO CRAZY SYMBOLIC DUDE IM AT WORK AND MY HEART HURTS BECAUSE OF THIS??? I love this sooo much.. I think it might be my new favorite homestuck animation. Like for serious.
I love the little details during the last part. I would freeze frame each characters. sooooo much feels
i love how just the way the character rolls tells so much about that character
I love how almost the entire time John is just tumbling, with no idea what's going on
I came to make a joke about stairs or something, but dude this was awesome
THE TRANSITIONS ARE SO GOOD!
damn characters rolling down a hill got me in tears
The rebirth of Homestuck
Look their youth rolling
I had to cry when karkat was crying.
Hi
Lilac_goat_uwu hi
i finished homestuck 2 months ago and this rlly made me cry :,)
this is so cute !!
Jade Space I haven’t even finished it yet :(
@@razziechkn one day u will finish!! Good luck!
@@razziechkn im somewhere around a6 a4??
I just finished it today!!!
@@askerror1987 cool!
THERE'S SO MANY DETAILS. Like Caliborn/Calliope's shadows in the OBEY flashes with Jane, or Karkat crying in the split second before he's off screen, or Dave's god tier being visible before he completely fades out with the bullet wounds, etc etc etc.
Love the bits with Rose, she's my fave, and the bit with GO Terezi and John. Oh man 10/10
Imagine the bruises
IM CRYINGGG THIS IS SO GOOD!! I’m currently consuming all of the homestuck content I can find since I finally read the webcomic T-T
I thought this was going to be dumb but then it hit me with the feels
Maybe it's just how I'm seeing it, but when Caliborn is rolling, I see him FLIPPING BACKWARDS, STILL GOING DOWN THE HILL, GODTEIRING, WITH THE SPIN, AND STICKS THE LANDING!
;-;
Ten Points.
BlueBlaze 413 the Olympus should hire him
i am emotional over a video of several characters rolling down a hill
same
It's starts at 0:47
of course rose comes out rolling right
she did the legendary
*YOUTH ROLL*
I love how everyone is feeling nostalgia and im here like "lol I'm currently on act 6-"
oh my god,
an actual person who probably hasn't finished homestuck in the years that it has been out.
You, Madam, are a rare gem.
Same, I'm currently at the beginning of Act 6. I was a fan from the moment I started, but never got into the fandom until mid-act 5
3:29 EVERY TIME I SEE "SCARF-TEREZI" I GET SAD. FOR SOME REASON, OUT OF EVERYONE'S DEATHS, HER'S WAS THE SADDEST.
KitKatPotato
yeah
The beatdown and the events leading to her finally keeling over into her own self-drawn chalk outline made me screech in genuine distress, curse the church of Faygo, screech some more, then dissolve into fits of laughter because _of course Terezi would still have enough steam left to steal Jade's shoes, fly off to Roxy's planet, mediate between her and John, _*_and_*_ write down a retconning to-do list_ despite enduring a one-sided mauling and a knife to the gut

I love how the first time Rose appears, she's only doing Youth Rolls.
There's so many little details in this
It's great
AND IT FITS WITH THE CANNON
if homestuck was a mountain, and i fell down it for 7 years, i'd be willing to make the hike up back to the beginning to roll down again...
This just got recommended to me again after three whole years. In that time, my life has changed so much. I finished homestuck for starters ;). This is really bringing back good memories. Thank you for making this. (Also this is an amazing animation!!!)

years later, this is still one of my absolute favourite homestuck animations. it just tugs on all the right strings. thank you very much. тт_тт 💖
This was too good and nostalgic I think I'll cry..
i love how confident john looks at the end
Legend has it that Andrew Hussie makes this a series in a alternate universe because he thought it is very funny
