I just ADORE how the bard looks the same in and out of the fantasy. That means that either A.) The bard roleplays so hard he shows up in costume even when no one else does or B.) He probably didn't give a backstory or description, so everyone just imagines him to look like himself in the fantasy world. Both these possibilities are superb.
Given that he's not paying attention to his party's rolls, along with the rest of his shenanigans, it seems unlikely that he's that invested in the roleplay. Therefore we can assume that this is just how Tom is
1:23 I love the phase "It's always a kid" because it implies that it's not the first time he attacked a kid before checking and I like to imagine that they found the kid multiple times but he always killed it and the DM had to find a excuse for them to find another child and repeat the cycle
I think he says "there's always a kid". In the same way detectives in noir films would say "there's always a woman" as in for reasons men do stuff. But yes, the implication is that it's not the first kid who gets offed
This happens regularly in my D&D party, it somehow really is always a kid. It's not our fault that we accidentally summoned a kraken outside of an orphanage. Don't build your orphanage so close to the water!
I like the implication that either A. Tom keeps taking the d20 on his turn and puts in his mouth to spit it out every time, or B. He just naturally has the ability to produce d20s from his mouth
On reflection, this is accurate. I recall one time we got carried away discussing our tactical situation after an end-game revelation (skill check) and the DM interrupted us as the BBG to say, "Uh, you know I'm still here and am listening to everything you say, right? Thanks for telling me your plan."
@@PenguinPoo4246 Eh, iirc the fight did not go according to plan at all. It wasn't a wipe but it got very messy. Our fault for getting carried away and letting player knowledge/talk bleed into the game. A salutary lesson learned!

Making a full animation is hard work. Most casual enjoyers don't have the motivation or time to make a high-fidelity work for the Web, and usually a middle-to-low fidelity works well enough.
@serenegenerally I'm aware that *this* isn't an animatic, but I remember seeing the animatic version of this when it was posted. I was just commenting on how rare it is to see someone that gets posted to RUclips as an "animatic" actually get taken to the fully animated stage instead of just staying a fun little animatic
The fact you commissioned one of the people who made animatics for this song and levelled it up into a full music video is like the best Christmas present to all of us. Brilliant.
I'm SO happy LankyMF became the official animator for this one!!!!! his facial expressions in the original were hilarious and fit the song so perfectly. Couldn't imagine anyone else :)
oh man really proud of the animator getting the full on collab. and to a lesser extent proud of tom for continuing his streak of good taste in animators.
stop me if someone pointed this out before but i cant help but notice that a. tom bardy's first action to prepare for combat is to roll an active perception check b. he doesnt seem to roll often as it takes him half a minute before he remembers the dm needs to actually tell him what he sees and c. this is not the first child that tom bardy has killed. with this in mind i can only assume that the last time it happened, the dm created a house rule where tom bardy has to succeed a perception check before he can actually cast spells. and yet it isnt enough to stop the bard.
I'm both intrigued and horrified by the DM growing 5 additional fingers to show 15 with two hands. Great job, this is one of my favorites of Tom's and you animated it beautifully
He was literally only letting the dm speak so that he could find an attribute to mock, also love how the DM has to check his notes to see if the kids body is still there
Good choice here. This is the best animated version of this song I've seen, and there was a LOT of competition. The rotation of the orb child: Smooth af. The flute playing: Inspiring. The finger snap and toe stand: On point. Trogdor on the cabinet in the background: Burninating. It's beautiful...
Don't forget the game master who looks suspiciously like Jeff Albertson (comic book guy) in the Simpsons. This detail alone makes the animation delicious haha
The other players staring daggers at the DM in the end is the perfect cherry on top of this masterpiece. Those looks just scream out "you're gonna let him get away with it....AGAIN??"
It’s also ethier a step brothers reference or that really old viral video about the two brothers taking a holiday card for there mom and keep arguing lol or even both but i think there wearing the same clothes from the viral video thou
Everyone else is pointing out all the little visual gags, and I love those too, but really my favorite part is just how he jumps all over the place when he plays the flute
I love Tom works together with artists that make art with his song and pays to get a full version made. It warms my heart that he cares about supporting other artists.
Undoubtly the best version of "Perception Check animated" of the all and I'm glad Tom had @LankyMF to fully animate his original sketch version! Bravo to everyone involved 😁
DM is so pissed because you weren't supposed to figure out that the child had faked his kidnapping so he could start controlling his evil legions in his first foray into gaining enough power and influence for his aspirations to eventual lichdom.
I'm actually playing a Bard in my current campaign and I straight up clipped the Vicious Mockery song to keep in my back pocket (just in case) the moment I heard it - and managed to stop laughing. Turns out, one of our villains was a an evil gnome "mad scientist/genius" type of guy who always floated around on a device of his own design so he could be taller than everyone - minions and enemies alike. My DM likes to tack on random meme traits to most of his characters like that. Anyway, in our final encounter with him, the dice gods smiled on upon me as if I were their chosen champion because I managed to crit my Vicious Mockery I'd been saving for him all fight. With the sheer glee of a child who's just received the Christmas present they've been asking for all year, I reached into my pocket and pulled out my phone, brought up the clip while my DM was confirming my crit and played it from "Nat 20 LET'S GO!" (which was the start of the clip). Needless to say, any semblance of staying in character was immediately shattered as hard as the gnome's emotional state and it got so bad that we decided to break for lunch because the DM couldn't even manage to get out a line explaining the effect of my performance. Instead, he ended up settling on "he's fucked" before we all bailed to another room to sit down and wait for the pizza (that I ordered) only like 10 minutes before. As you would expect, after the food - which I was already very popular for ordering for everyone as a surprise - we got back to the table and resumed the session but for the rest of the day, my ego was untouchably inflated and for once, not a single person complained and I was treated like a genuine hero for the remainder of the afternoon/night. I couldn't have asked for a better time playing and it never would have happened without this absolute masterpiece so... Thanks Tom. You are an inspiration to us all.
When I get to play D&D as a party member, I'm sometimes a Bard. When I'm a Bard, I bring my tambourine and just leave it on the table in front of me to make everyone anxious. Once in a while, I will actually pick it up and play with it to match what my character is doing. It's like an annoying little surprise!
oh my god i’m so happy this animatic was the one chosen for the final music video. it was literally my favorite to watch. a notification has never excited me more.
I have no idea why the tongues are green but that honestly just adds to the experience, thank you for making such an awesome memeable song and thank Lanky for following up with just as awesome memeage!
the tom cardy standin is rightfully getting praise but ireally love the designs of the other people at the table. the sparse facial hair, blemishes, yellowish teeth, all these little things make them feel real and remind me of my high school friends. :)

I remember when this was just an animatic! What a glow up, this was easily my favorite one that cropped up when the original dropped so it's awesome seeing it fully completed like this ❤
After about a bazillion times watching this, I finally noticed the creatures drawn on the DM's screen change their expressions to match the DM's. Dang that's a nice touch
@@mcmosfet2856 That's my point. There's one single version in which it uses a save, so you can't say 'doesn't need to roll to hit'. It's like finger of death, unlike every other edition in 5e it doesn't kill people - but definitively saying 'finger of death doesn't kill people' would be stupid, it mostly does with one exception.
@@eslingoonan2929 I feel like you have absolutly no idea what i actually posted. When the player casts Vicious Mockery, there is no need for the player to "roll a nat 20" afterwards. The bard rolls his dice for no reason. The target (aka, the DM) would roll in this case.
@@talkinggibberish I know precisely what you posted. You said that the spell doesn't roll to hit, so I pointed out that there's only one edition where that's true. When the spell was invented, it absolutely rolled to hit - so your blanket 'that's not how this works' was incorrect. And I already explained all this, so I have no idea why you're saying that you feel I have no idea how this works. I clearly do, and have already shown you that. You, however, don't.
I love the fact that the Bard looks the same irl as he does in the game universe, implying he is dressed up like his character while everyone else is just in casual wear and I love that
The fact that Tom says "child" at the same moment the DM does... Y'all? He *knew* it was the kid the *_entire time. . ._* and he did not care *one whit* about that. Kid's body ain't the only thing lying~
YEAHHHH This animatic was my fave cause it captured the original song so perfectly!! Glad you got to work with the og artist to get a fully animated music video!
I'm just beginning to slowly build a new homebrew world after not being happy with how my first attempt turned out. I'm absolutely making a traveling bard NPC named Thomas Lanky, who looks similar to the bard here and sings this song everywhere he goes. He's going to be my comic relief. 😂

or
B.) He probably didn't give a backstory or description, so everyone just imagines him to look like himself in the fantasy world.
Both these possibilities are superb.
I don't think that Tom is roleplaying at all in this campaign. His D&D character is just him, exactly as he is in real life.
As someone who always plays a bard, yes to both.
not only that, but it looks exactly like Tom Cardy himself
He dresses as a fantasy character in his daily life
Given that he's not paying attention to his party's rolls, along with the rest of his shenanigans, it seems unlikely that he's that invested in the roleplay. Therefore we can assume that this is just how Tom is
"This is YOUR fault for letting me play a chaotic neutral bard."
wait... there are other kinds of Bards?
1:23 I love the phase "It's always a kid" because it implies that it's not the first time he attacked a kid before checking and I like to imagine that they found the kid multiple times but he always killed it and the DM had to find a excuse for them to find another child and repeat the cycle

The funky dance walk he does at 0:47 when he says "My boys are otherwise engaged" cracks me up
That line kills me for some reason. The dance is also hilarious.

Who!?!?
@@drbjr99 "binding of Isaac" is the name of a video game where you play a kid shaped pretty much exactly like that
he even is just as depressed as Isaac (oh no)
I like the implication that either A. Tom keeps taking the d20 on his turn and puts in his mouth to spit it out every time, or B. He just naturally has the ability to produce d20s from his mouth
LankyMF commented on the original animation that Tom's character has 5 more D20s stashed in his cheeks.
Option A looks the most likely, but option B would be funnier.
On the original video the creator says he has like 8 more stuffed in there for the rest of the game
It’s a visual pun. The bard spits nat 20s.
The first possibility is something that would probably happen in an irl (pre covid) dnd game too
"Me and my Boys are gonna mess you up"
"I rolled an one" "I rolled an one"

Fully animated thing cannot be called animatic. Animatic is a sketch

HELL FOCKEN YEAH MATE!
That’s the bloody sequel tae the original animation we all wanted without us knowing! 😄
"The last 15 days" *Casually holds up 15 fingers*
This song honestly has no business being this good
Truly the animation we all deserve for such a banger
I remember when this was just an animatic! What a glow up, this was easily my favorite one that cropped up when the original dropped so it's awesome seeing it fully completed like this ❤
After about a bazillion times watching this, I finally noticed the creatures drawn on the DM's screen change their expressions to match the DM's. Dang that's a nice touch
Bard is totally the type of guy who would roll the d20 for a spell that doesnt need to roll to hit before the DM can respond.
Since when does vicious mockery not need to roll to hit? There's only one edition in which it instead forces a save.
@@eslingoonan2929Since the current version you just said existed?
@@mcmosfet2856 That's my point. There's one single version in which it uses a save, so you can't say 'doesn't need to roll to hit'. It's like finger of death, unlike every other edition in 5e it doesn't kill people - but definitively saying 'finger of death doesn't kill people' would be stupid, it mostly does with one exception.
@@eslingoonan2929 I feel like you have absolutly no idea what i actually posted. When the player casts Vicious Mockery, there is no need for the player to "roll a nat 20" afterwards. The bard rolls his dice for no reason. The target (aka, the DM) would roll in this case.
@@talkinggibberish I know precisely what you posted. You said that the spell doesn't roll to hit, so I pointed out that there's only one edition where that's true. When the spell was invented, it absolutely rolled to hit - so your blanket 'that's not how this works' was incorrect.
And I already explained all this, so I have no idea why you're saying that you feel I have no idea how this works. I clearly do, and have already shown you that. You, however, don't.
I am so unbelievably happy that Lanky's original animatic is getting this love, absolutely amazing!
The animation gives me such old youtube vibes and I absolutely love it
I love the fact that the Bard looks the same irl as he does in the game universe, implying he is dressed up like his character while everyone else is just in casual wear and I love that
The fact that Tom says "child" at the same moment the DM does...
Y'all? He *knew* it was the kid the *_entire time. . ._*
and he did not care *one whit* about that. Kid's body ain't the only thing lying~
YESSSS THIS WAS MY FAVORITE STYLE OF ALL THE ANIMATIONS, IT GOT A WONDERFUL GLOW-UP!!!! HELL YEAHHHHHHH
YEAHHHH This animatic was my fave cause it captured the original song so perfectly!! Glad you got to work with the og artist to get a fully animated music video!
Absolutely adore how intensely he lets the flute
This is the greatest bard in D&D history!
This is SO FANTASTIC, and it's amazing that this was finished just in time for Christmas!! (Also, I love the Trogdor in the background)
I remember loving LankyMF's original animatic of this song super cool to see this
I like how this implies he just keeps D20s in his mouth, just incase he needs to roll 😭
I just realized there's a Trogdor figure on top of the bookshelf behind the DM.
You're cool for picking up on that.
No matter how many times I hear this song it never gets old
The absolut blast the animator must have had!
I'm just beginning to slowly build a new homebrew world after not being happy with how my first attempt turned out.
I'm absolutely making a traveling bard NPC named Thomas Lanky, who looks similar to the bard here and sings this song everywhere he goes. He's going to be my comic relief. 😂
