God i love when people depict finale Jon as eldritch in some way and this one with the wings and the shadows and the cryptid glowing eyes and then Martin running to him is just *chefs kiss*
I just noticed that the lyrics "When I'm ready I will fly us out of here" comes up during the worm conversation between Jon and Martin, and at the end Jon grows wings and kinda literally flies them out of here. That's amazing
Damn, I was not expecting this song to be a good fit for TMA but those lyrics literally describe the events of the scene three finally and perfectly captures the struggles with loneliness that Martin and John both have. Well done.
Goodness, I'm a sucker for animation that matches to rhythmic beats, and this song is *perfect* for this show! The bit where it goes "get a load of this trainwreck" and Jon becomes the Pupil and Martin bursts in after him with the music as intense as it is? Gets me every time. Plus, you captured the spirit of Jon as he moves through the seasons; the skepticism of S1, the paranoia of S2, the terror of S3, the apathy of S4, the worry and almost derangement of S5, it's *so* good! I sincerely can't count how many times I've watched this already, this show means so much to me and to see it portrayed like this is phenomenal! Please keep creating, you've got something special here! 💖
Personally I felt that the worry was more present in s4 and the apathy/derangment came in s5- esp with all the eye stuff n how he changed cuz of it (and how he didnt change)
This is SO good. The animation is ON POINT--especially at the season 3 finale parts, your use of color is great, and how you keep switching between animation and stills and a combo of both is amazing!!! This is definitely one of my favorite TMA animatics!
Absolutely amazing! that last shot of Jon smiling at the audience and clicking off the tape recorder before going Elsewhere made me choke back tears. Thank you!
i'm not familiar with the magnus archives story, but the unfinished characters in the "get a load of this monster" segment add to the animation, in my opinion. they make me feel an intense loneliness and social disconnect for the central character, like they can't feel connected to anyone, even through they're surrounded by people who are trying to reach out to them.
This is hands down the best and most captivating animatic I've EVER seen. So smooth and fluid! And the color use! I am in love with the color use. I found this earlier today and I just watched it for the fifth time. I keep returning to it, even though I don't dare to watch past the coffin part, as I still have not finished season 4 of the show. However, the part that absolutely blew my mind was the fact that JON PUTS HIS GLASSES NEXT TO HIMSELF ON THE DESK WHEN HE FALLS ASLEEP ON IT. And then he reaches to pick them up. That little detail broke me. The fluidity. The realism. How achingly human he is in those seconds. Such a clever way to create more movement. I barely remember to take my own glasses off before taking a depression nap on my desk let alone my character's. Amazing.
okay i gotta say: the composition of this is absolutely gorgeous, with so many words lining up perfectly with the story (like "die" with tim's explosion followed directly by john's heartrate monitor, not the only one i noticed, but definitely the one that made me cry the most). i kept rewinding 2:23-2:31 because it was just so fluid and gorgeous to watch. (as well as the eye opening to "get a load of this monster," what beautiful animation work!) even unfinished, it is _so_ well made, with so many backgrounds and dedication put into it. I'm glad you decided to share this, I'm now gonna rewatch it and cry about it some more (also the moment i realised "home" meant specifically the song by cavetown, i _did_ start tearing up)
I just finished Magnus yesterday, and I put off waching this because of spoilers till now, but my god this is brilliant. I'm just started to cry in front of my cereal. I have no words to express how much I like this video.
It's such a little thing, but the way the music lined up with the push pins in the conspiracy board just zing up my spine. There's a dozen moments where the music and the animation synch up and just sucker punch me, the heart monitor, the eyes popping open at 2:50. Damn, just, Damn! this is so freaking good!!
This is my comfort animatic. All of the frames match with not only the song but give nods to the story. The transitions are amazing. There are no words that could describe how I feel about this animatic.
The ending of TMA hurt my soul. It made me so incredibly sad. It was such a great show but it made me *so sad* It’s pieces like this, pieces that take me once again trough the rolecoaster of emotions that this show put me trough that help me relive it and revel it it’s most comforting and painful moments. I take great joy in the fan content. And I feel great pride joining this fandom.
I've only listed to season 1 of TMA so I have no context for any of the things happening here but this is so nice!!! The drawings and colors and just... everything about this is beautiful :'D
Holy shit…. This is absolutely the most beautifully and heart breaking animation I have seen for tma, hell maybe even ever. The amount of detail and love you have put into every second of this pmv is fucking phenomenal! The panels showing Jon in every domain was one of my favorite parts, you have so much skill and talent, I am genuinely in tears at how incredible this is!
this is absolutely STUNNING, i gasped at the part where the fire changes to the heart monitor AND THE PART WHERE IT SWITCHES TO THE ARCHIVE CREW WITH THE BIRTHDAY CAKE oh my GOODNESS. new favorite animation
Saw the GIFs on tumblr n went running to see this. God, I remember your domain fanarts and they were absolutely stunning, seeing them in the animation makes them look even better. Can´t even think on how long this must have taken you to create. Your animations are beautiful, so well timed, beautifully colored and??? This whole animation is breathtaking. I´m enamoured with the Jon in a coma scene, visually it looks gorgeous! Honestly I can´t pic another fav part, I love all of it. This definitely became one of my favorite animated pieces :,)) just beautiful, thank you for sharing it, I´ll be staring at it endlessly
I’m actually sobbing. The way that you made the song fit perfectly with the story, the emotions in Jon’s face were so clear and accurate. Like this is just perfect in so many fronts, the animation , the editing, the storytelling. Beautiful!
WOW, I'm trying so hard not to cry right now that was just beautiful ;; Your style is amazing, I can't even coherently talk about all the things I loved about this except that it's e v e r y t h i n g and this just became my favorite new pmv.
SO muc labor, so much love, so much tima was given into this thing. And now, I´m crying in my chair because this has shown me in summary all the time I have spent with tma in the lockdown across past two years. Thank you so much for this.
No you don’t understand this video has left me a WRECK. it’s gotten to the point where i cant listen to the song without sobbing okay I made the unwise decision to add it to my offline playlist and had it on when i went to go get food just now, and that’s how I had a full (albeit quiet) breakdown in the middle of a Popeyes at 11:00pm on a Friday night You hold too much power, and I’m suing for emotional damages (Fr tho, this is incredible)
I love every bit of this animatic! Especially how every character just looks so soft! I love how Jon's hair is just so fluffy, it looks especially soft. I loved it!
SCREAMING CRYING throwing up, this is so good, you revived my jon pain in the best ways. If there was some way to single-handedly get this to a million views i would
Omg, this is… its absolutely amazing. The character designs and how everything is laid out and how the lyrics match that’s going on. “Turn of your porcelain face” with Nicola, Tim flipping the switch on “dead” transitioning to Jon in the hospital. The scene of Jon walking down the hallway with everything that happened in the windows was amazing. “Look at this monster who doesnt know how to communicate” going from the eye being the monster to Jon himself being the monster, which also leads to the “look a this train wreck, he doesn’t know who he is yet”
IM UGLY CRYING RN BCS THIS IS SO WONDERFULLY AMAZING ??! this will never leave my mind and and and oh wow i cant stop watching im still sore from recently starting s5 and😭 the opening scene of the birthday surprise is just PERFECTION im so happy to have stumbled upon this. thank you for this magnificent animation
I am speechless...the fluid movement the color the look on Jon's face in those final moments in the panopticon, not to mention your gorgeous character designs!!
I have to say, every TMA animatic/pmv makes me cry a little bit, but that final shot of Jon hit me really hard in a way I'm having a hard time describing. Well done/how dare you/god I miss the show so much lol
Thank you for giving visuals to the world of tma. seeing this art that listeners have made makes all the hard work incredibly worth it. the part at 3:33 made me cry especially. Thank you, Nico (tma vocal editor/kiss editor)
oh wow!! thank you so, so, SO much! 🥺 it really means the world to have someone who worked on the show comment on this passion project of mine! it was 100% intended to be a love letter to the series as a whole and everyone who worked so hard to bring us such an incredible story, so thank you for everything! this video is for you (:
HOLY SHIT. The final "get a load of this trainwreck" with the WINGS. This gave me so many emotions holy fuck. I love this song and for some reason thought I had already watched this but it kept getting recommended to me by youtube literally everyday for like a month now. Glad I fucking clicked on it fucking hell. Amazing job. Edit to add after rewatching: "sometimes I think i'm dead" with the flatline??? genius. and the sasha/NotSasha transition!
There are a lot of incredible Magnus Archive animatics and PMV's out there, and this deserves to be considered to be one of the best, honestly incredible work. I literally exclaimed out loud 'holy crap!" when I saw the 'Eye Wings' Wonderfull video
Even unfinished this is one of the most gorgeous pmvs I’ve ever watched!! Your style?? Your concepts?? Your pacing??? Amazing, incredible, I love it!!!!!
I'M. WOW. OKAY. GONNA NEED A MINUTE TO PROCESS THIS ONE. this is going to be long and I apologize in advance. I didn't realize those pieces you had posted on tumblr were wips of this!! seeing all the jons in domains at 2:54 was such a delightful treat!! very neat to see how those tied into the song as a whole. anyway! this was. absolutely incredible. your editing is utterly flawless, that transition from the unknowing explosion to jon's heart rate monitor drove me a special kind of insane. and I don't know what it is about the composition from 1:55 to 2:05, but I'm obsessed with it. it's haunting. plus the eye opening animation paralleling the first shot, now with inhuman pupils, directly afterwards? god, that's great. and that bit with the cut from the apocalypse in the safehouse to the flashback in 161 was so clean and perfect, I cannot stop watching that bit. not to mention the heartrending lines you paired with that bit, haha. and i would be loath to NOT mention the eye wings jon's sporting at 3:25!! always a sucker for those. this as a whole is just. wow. I think I'm going to find something new I love every time I watch this. wonderful, wonderful work.
WWGHWHGHWGHWGHWHHW 🥺WOW IM SO HONORED!!! ive seen so much of your art on tumblr and i watched your animatic for The Killing Kind and was SO blown away!!! I cant even begin to explain how much i admire your work!! your sense of story and composition is really strong, so to have you compliment my work means a lot!! thank you for all your kind words
Haven't even started The Magnus Archives (yet) but even without context, this video is so powerful. Animations are stunning and so expressive and the transitions are masterful and it all matches the song as if the two were made for one another. Got blurry-eyed at the end and I don't even really know what's going on! I think what I'm trying to say is thank you for this wonderful piece of art
This is such a perfect song choice. But also such a BEAUTIFUL animation!!! Absolutely incredible!! Please please share more, this is so delightful! ❤❤❤
i don’t even go here but oh my god this is so unbelievably stunning??? the amount of detail that you put into the thematic and symbolic elements throughout is just *chef’s kiss* talented brilliant show stopping incredible also i can’t get over just how straight up gorgeous your art style is abjkdnkjsnljd thank you so much for making and posting this ❤️❤️
IM SOBBING THIS IS THE BEST THING IVE EVER SEEN Adding onto this: the lighting and shadows were SO DAMN PRETTY!! they were one of the absolute best parts for me. Also the transition from Tim's explosion to Jon's moniter??? Lining up with "are you dead / sometimes i think im dead"??????? PHENOMENAL
finished listening to this podcast around an hour ago and WOW watching this destroyed me in the best way possible. the amount of work put into this was definitely worth it, this is so SO stunning and captured jon's personality and arc quite well imo. I love this so much
I don't even know where to start with this... This is one of the most wonderful PMVs I've ever seen, everything weaves together so beautifully!! You did an amazing job with this! Your colors and transitions are one of my favorite parts of it
I found this when I was still curiously checking out this fandom, but wanted to wait to comment until I finished the series. This is so freaking good. I love how you used both stills and animation and they flowed so well together. I love how you drew the characters, your long-haired Jon is so pretty. The section at the end when the violin kicks in and it goes from S5 Jon to S1 Jon, I almost cried. My favorite part has to be how you depicted Jon saving Martin from the Lonely. That shot of Jon running through the fog is so smooth and fluid and it transitions to the stills so well. When Jon takes Martin’s face in his hands and they look at each other so tenderly, so beautiful. And then at the end when Martin’s crying and smiling and Jon’s smiling and their foreheads are touching, oh, it just warms my heart. I must have played that bit a million times in a row
Did I discover The Magnus Archives earlier last year, finished everything as quick as I could and now I come back to this video to break my heart on a regular basis? Yes. (Seriously: it is perfect and I cannot express enough how much I thank you for your work on this masterpiece)
I don't normally comment, but... This is perfect. No other animatic I've seen has moved me this much. I get emotianal every time I see it. Thank you for sharing it with us :)
this is breathtakingly beautiful. I absolutely adore how you draw them. My heart feels like it's going to burst while watching this - it's truly incredible. Thank you so much
I had never heard this song before, but now every time I'll hear it I'll have to try not to sob uncontrollably. What a poignant illustration of the show, seriously, amazing animation.
this is honestly the best magnus animation ive seen, so smoothe, so many amaizing colors, co much work put into it, the expressions, the transitions i honeslty just cant So amaizing!
I'm in absolute awe. I adore this art style, the song choice is perfect, and the emotions are conveyed SO WELL. This deserves way more credit than it's received. Just... thank you.
I have no words, this is actually amazing, this is one of my favourite songs and my current favourite story mashed into one combined with your absolutely stunning animation, style and character designs im in awe, and also loudly weeping
This was so unbelievably fantastic! I love the colors you use, the character designs, and the composition of the whole video. And the way that the words match what's happening in the video too!!! I feel so emotional just watching this, even when it's unfinished, and just relishing in all the little moments you included. I also think the heartrate monitor split screen was SO creative, I haven't seen anything like that before! You really captured the heart of all the characters, especially how Jon is through each season. I'm in love with this and I really cannot wait to see it finished!
okay I just finished tma for the first time and I'm actually SOBBING irl it's so emotional for me to see it, since sometimes I have trouble visualizing with audio-only and this is GORGEOUS catch me sobbing over tim and Sasha all over again
Wow this is amazing! Some of your frames are just visually stunning! Personal favorites at 0:20 with the great expression work and the flashing light, 2:44 with the great lighting (also ow my heart), and 2:54-2:55 with the slaughter and desolation domains because HOLY COW these are like full art pieces not something you usually find in a pmv. The transition at 1:51 was so freaking smooth. Great job. This is definitely something to be proud of. Thanks for gifting the community with this
Damn dude you got my crying in the club rn ToT /pos This is genuinely such a good animatic. Your use of color and the eye imagery was fantastic. I loved your design for Jon. Excellent work!
I don't know what I can say that hasn't been said yet but this is so good it actually made me cry. Somehow you managed to fit the whole TMA emotional rollercoaster and all the plot beats into 4 minutes and 33 seconds and do so beautifully. You matched the beats of the story to the song perfectly and despite not crying during the actual episode seeing Tim hit the switch in the unknowing felt like a gut punch I'm never going to recover from (in the best way possible). You also nailed the colour schemes they all felt cohesive but distinct enough that you could tell the difference in environments, I was a particular fan of the unknowing and the lonely. The bit where all the eyes opened at the start of s5 gave me chills and the last bit where Jon goes back to his s1 look and smiled before turning back around is what really brought out the tears. I think I just want a happy end so bad lol (Also the way you drew Nikola O at 1:40 I really love it? You really feel the stranger(-ness?) in her design and it felt like she was looking at *me* which was a bit unsettling and totally fit the wonky vibes of the unknowing.) I think I could write a whole essay about my feelings about this if I was given the chance so just thank you for making this I'm looking forward to rewatching it when I get myself together again haha
This was SO amazing! I love your designs and the transitions and the artstyle and everything! This song already makes me super emotional, and it combined with the story and your stunning visuals honestly made me cry a bit. VERY good job!!!!
Im so obseseddesssdddd with this animation. I watche d it years ago, probs when it came out and i don't think i comented all my thoughts because i LITERALLY CANNOT. ITS SO GOOD, AND I KEEP COMING BACK TO IT BACAUSE JUST WOW. JUST WOW.
This is gorgeous! Just stunning, I adore your character designs and colour choices and transitions and just the creativity of it all. Really lovely and really inspiring - thanks for sharing!
Holly shit- you're a goddamn amazing artist and animater. This was truly something beautiful and honestly didn't expect the storyboards to work so well for the unfinished bits as much as it did- it gave it a real sense of urgency towards the end as Jon was somewhat loosing himself and the hope to fix the world towards the end of the story.
OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS JUST BEAUTIFUL?? 10/10, DID CRY. I'm surprised this doesn't have more views, this is wonderful, and every little detail is just 😢 The ending just stuck with me in a certain way and I was HURT thanks op it was great
this is SO PRETTY i just finished tma and this video is helping me cope so hard. I wish I was a fan last summer when the fandom was super active but im so glad to have content like this
This is truly a masterpiece. The way everything flows together is great, I love how many details were added, the hallway scene was a great way of showing many events and my fav moment was the one of Jon sitting at a table throughout many moments in his life.
I don’t know a single thing about TMA but I keep coming back to watch this because it’s so beautiful. Really makes me feel a lot for characters I don’t know the names of!
This is so damn cool! All those transitions were so well thought out! And your art style- !!! I already know I’m going to be watching this on repeat for the next few months
Is no one going to talk how genius it is that Jon didn't need his glasses after the coma?? Stunning.
He can SEE ALL
Optomatrists hate him!
Just for that, I’d gladly join the Beholding
@@koykoyonly fr tho 😂
@@koykoyonly Same, as someone who wears contacts I won't mind gaining my sight back
That moment where it transitioned from the fire of the Unknowing to Jon's heartrate monitor was a religious experience
AGREED
That was FIRE
AND THE WAY IT LINES UP WITH THE SONG KILLS ME
AGREED.
When Tim hitting the switch lined up perfectly with the word Dead right after the porcelain face I died with him
“But little do we know the stars welcome him with open arms” being Martin accepting Jon has me FLOORED
God i love when people depict finale Jon as eldritch in some way and this one with the wings and the shadows and the cryptid glowing eyes and then Martin running to him is just *chefs kiss*
What a masterpiece, also I love the fandoms draw to have Jon’s hair length directly correspond to his character arch 😂
a raggedy man
As shit got real got too busy for the barber
@@publiusii4246or he stopped trusting people around his head with sharp objects.
@@atlander4204he could have cut it himself, I mean it's not like he didn't have eyes on the back of his head.
I wasn't convinced about long-haired Jon until I started watching animatics like these and now it just fits.
I just noticed that the lyrics "When I'm ready I will fly us out of here" comes up during the worm conversation between Jon and Martin, and at the end Jon grows wings and kinda literally flies them out of here. That's amazing

THIS IS INCREDIBLE. And to have it circle back at the end to early Jon is somehow more heartbreaking than just leaving it T-T
And then him stopping the tape and immediately disappearing?????
This is SO good. The animation is ON POINT--especially at the season 3 finale parts, your use of color is great, and how you keep switching between animation and stills and a combo of both is amazing!!! This is definitely one of my favorite TMA animatics!
I AGREE, the S3 finale parts were insanely good
Absolutely amazing! that last shot of Jon smiling at the audience and clicking off the tape recorder before going Elsewhere made me choke back tears. Thank you!

whoops i've watched this video at least a dozen times in a day. i'm obsessed with the narrative, animation, and song.
Yeah that actually sums up the plot at the point pretty well. Poor Jon and Martin :,)
Conveyed this perfectly, and it adds a layer of angst to the Jonmartin kiss and stab being unfinished :,D just as things should be
He also feels a disconnect with his own life, but it’s a good kind, as indicated by the smile at the end, after he passes on.
@@LoverOfStuff They're actually not surrounded by people trying to reach out to them though. Not past season 1, anyway.
Your style???? your character desgins????? jon with eye wings??? that ending?? everything about this is so beautiful thank you
This is such a perfect love letter to the series.

Never thought this song would work so good with his character, but here we are
this just reignited every Emotion I have ever had for this show holy shit this was incredible
I know this was posted 2 years ago but I’d just like to say that this is incredible and if you still read these comments I’d love to see it completed.
SO muc labor, so much love, so much tima was given into this thing. And now, I´m crying in my chair because this has shown me in summary all the time I have spent with tma in the lockdown across past two years. Thank you so much for this.
i literally cant explain how good this is im stunned and crying and feeling entirely too much over this
I have watched this 10 times since i found it yesterday im truly obsessed
I’ve watched this twice, and cried both times. Everything hurts, I’m dying, and I love this so much, you did a friggin awesome job holy shit-
No you don’t understand this video has left me a WRECK. it’s gotten to the point where i cant listen to the song without sobbing okay
I made the unwise decision to add it to my offline playlist and had it on when i went to go get food just now, and that’s how I had a full (albeit quiet) breakdown in the middle of a Popeyes at 11:00pm on a Friday night
You hold too much power, and I’m suing for emotional damages

U good fella?
@@spacemoth06 thank you for asking, no :)

oh wow!! thank you so, so, SO much! 🥺 it really means the world to have someone who worked on the show comment on this passion project of mine! it was 100% intended to be a love letter to the series as a whole and everyone who worked so hard to bring us such an incredible story, so thank you for everything! this video is for you (:
I accidentally clicked the time stamp and realized 2:37 and 3:33 look so similar and I really hope it was intentional because aaaaaaa
this is literally the best tma pmv i have ever seen it's become my comfort video i love it so much thank you for making it
Oh my gods....the transitions, everything about this makes me want to cry. This is a wonderful piece of art and I just- wow
HOLY SHIT. The final "get a load of this trainwreck" with the WINGS. This gave me so many emotions holy fuck. I love this song and for some reason thought I had already watched this but it kept getting recommended to me by youtube literally everyday for like a month now. Glad I fucking clicked on it fucking hell. Amazing job. Edit to add after rewatching: "sometimes I think i'm dead" with the flatline??? genius. and the sasha/NotSasha transition!
There are a lot of incredible Magnus Archive animatics and PMV's out there, and this deserves to be considered to be one of the best, honestly incredible work. I literally exclaimed out loud 'holy crap!" when I saw the 'Eye Wings' Wonderfull video
Even unfinished this is one of the most gorgeous pmvs I’ve ever watched!! Your style?? Your concepts?? Your pacing??? Amazing, incredible, I love it!!!!!
I'M. WOW. OKAY. GONNA NEED A MINUTE TO PROCESS THIS ONE. this is going to be long and I apologize in advance.
I didn't realize those pieces you had posted on tumblr were wips of this!! seeing all the jons in domains at 2:54 was such a delightful treat!! very neat to see how those tied into the song as a whole.
anyway! this was. absolutely incredible. your editing is utterly flawless, that transition from the unknowing explosion to jon's heart rate monitor drove me a special kind of insane. and I don't know what it is about the composition from 1:55 to 2:05, but I'm obsessed with it. it's haunting. plus the eye opening animation paralleling the first shot, now with inhuman pupils, directly afterwards? god, that's great.
and that bit with the cut from the apocalypse in the safehouse to the flashback in 161 was so clean and perfect, I cannot stop watching that bit. not to mention the heartrending lines you paired with that bit, haha. and i would be loath to NOT mention the eye wings jon's sporting at 3:25!! always a sucker for those.
this as a whole is just. wow. I think I'm going to find something new I love every time I watch this. wonderful, wonderful work.
WWGHWHGHWGHWGHWHHW 🥺WOW IM SO HONORED!!! ive seen so much of your art on tumblr and i watched your animatic for The Killing Kind and was SO blown away!!! I cant even begin to explain how much i admire your work!! your sense of story and composition is really strong, so to have you compliment my work means a lot!! thank you for all your kind words
@@faeriekei AH you're too kind!! thank you so much!! and I'll absolutely do so, please keep up the excellent work, yourself!
this is unbelievably gorgeous, holy shit. your compositions, colors, linework, animation, EVERYTHING is incredible. WOW!!!
Haven't even started The Magnus Archives (yet) but even without context, this video is so powerful. Animations are stunning and so expressive and the transitions are masterful and it all matches the song as if the two were made for one another. Got blurry-eyed at the end and I don't even really know what's going on! I think what I'm trying to say is thank you for this wonderful piece of art
This is such a perfect song choice. But also such a BEAUTIFUL animation!!! Absolutely incredible!! Please please share more, this is so delightful! ❤❤❤
i don’t even go here but oh my god this is so unbelievably stunning??? the amount of detail that you put into the thematic and symbolic elements throughout is just *chef’s kiss* talented brilliant show stopping incredible
also i can’t get over just how straight up gorgeous your art style is abjkdnkjsnljd thank you so much for making and posting this ❤️❤️
IM SOBBING THIS IS THE BEST THING IVE EVER SEEN
Adding onto this: the lighting and shadows were SO DAMN PRETTY!! they were one of the absolute best parts for me. Also the transition from Tim's explosion to Jon's moniter??? Lining up with "are you dead / sometimes i think im dead"??????? PHENOMENAL
finished listening to this podcast around an hour ago and WOW watching this destroyed me in the best way possible. the amount of work put into this was definitely worth it, this is so SO stunning and captured jon's personality and arc quite well imo. I love this so much
God that door appearing is so well done
I don't even know where to start with this... This is one of the most wonderful PMVs I've ever seen, everything weaves together so beautifully!! You did an amazing job with this! Your colors and transitions are one of my favorite parts of it
I found this when I was still curiously checking out this fandom, but wanted to wait to comment until I finished the series. This is so freaking good. I love how you used both stills and animation and they flowed so well together. I love how you drew the characters, your long-haired Jon is so pretty. The section at the end when the violin kicks in and it goes from S5 Jon to S1 Jon, I almost cried. My favorite part has to be how you depicted Jon saving Martin from the Lonely. That shot of Jon running through the fog is so smooth and fluid and it transitions to the stills so well. When Jon takes Martin’s face in his hands and they look at each other so tenderly, so beautiful. And then at the end when Martin’s crying and smiling and Jon’s smiling and their foreheads are touching, oh, it just warms my heart. I must have played that bit a million times in a row
AHHHHH THIS IS EVERYTHING!!!!💜💜💜
The transitions are so cool and the art style🤌chefs kiss and the song choice all of this is amazing
I'm not even done with the video and this is so well done
I smile every time I see tim's defiant grin
my man went out like a *winner*
(and by "went out" i mean left the archives to go kayaking. of course)
This is one of the most beautiful TMA fan works I have ever seen, genuinely thank you for this
Did I discover The Magnus Archives earlier last year, finished everything as quick as I could and now I come back to this video to break my heart on a regular basis?
Yes.
(Seriously: it is perfect and I cannot express enough how much I thank you for your work on this masterpiece)
I don't normally comment, but... This is perfect. No other animatic I've seen has moved me this much. I get emotianal every time I see it. Thank you for sharing it with us :)
this is breathtakingly beautiful. I absolutely adore how you draw them. My heart feels like it's going to burst while watching this - it's truly incredible. Thank you so much
This is the animatic that got me to actually listen to the Magnus archives! Thank you so much 😊
I had never heard this song before, but now every time I'll hear it I'll have to try not to sob uncontrollably.
What a poignant illustration of the show, seriously, amazing animation.
this is honestly the best magnus animation ive seen, so smoothe, so many amaizing colors, co much work put into it, the expressions, the transitions i honeslty just cant So amaizing!
I'm in absolute awe. I adore this art style, the song choice is perfect, and the emotions are conveyed SO WELL. This deserves way more credit than it's received. Just... thank you.
TEARS
JUST TEARS
THIS
UGH
BEAUTIFUL
😭😭😭💙💙💙
You hurt me and I love you for it
THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST GORGEOUS THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN *bows taking off imaginary hat*
I have no words, this is actually amazing, this is one of my favourite songs and my current favourite story mashed into one combined with your absolutely stunning animation, style and character designs im in awe, and also loudly weeping
This was so unbelievably fantastic! I love the colors you use, the character designs, and the composition of the whole video. And the way that the words match what's happening in the video too!!! I feel so emotional just watching this, even when it's unfinished, and just relishing in all the little moments you included. I also think the heartrate monitor split screen was SO creative, I haven't seen anything like that before! You really captured the heart of all the characters, especially how Jon is through each season. I'm in love with this and I really cannot wait to see it finished!
okay I just finished tma for the first time and I'm actually SOBBING irl it's so emotional for me to see it, since sometimes I have trouble visualizing with audio-only and this is GORGEOUS catch me sobbing over tim and Sasha all over again
Wow this is amazing! Some of your frames are just visually stunning! Personal favorites at 0:20 with the great expression work and the flashing light, 2:44 with the great lighting (also ow my heart), and 2:54-2:55 with the slaughter and desolation domains because HOLY COW these are like full art pieces not something you usually find in a pmv. The transition at 1:51 was so freaking smooth. Great job. This is definitely something to be proud of. Thanks for gifting the community with this
I AM ONCE AGAIN SOBBING OVER THE MAGNUS ARCHIVES
this is absolutely BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!!!!!!!
2:44 im crying why is this so wholesome (I haven't gotten to season 5 but at this point I don't care about spoilers)
I don't care if a finished version is ever released, I've already died watching this! It's simply too good!
Damn dude you got my crying in the club rn ToT /pos This is genuinely such a good animatic. Your use of color and the eye imagery was fantastic. I loved your design for Jon. Excellent work!
Sobbing crying on the floor thank you for this it’s beautiful
I don't know what I can say that hasn't been said yet but this is so good it actually made me cry.
Somehow you managed to fit the whole TMA emotional rollercoaster and all the plot beats into 4 minutes and 33 seconds and do so beautifully. You matched the beats of the story to the song perfectly and despite not crying during the actual episode seeing Tim hit the switch in the unknowing felt like a gut punch I'm never going to recover from (in the best way possible). You also nailed the colour schemes they all felt cohesive but distinct enough that you could tell the difference in environments, I was a particular fan of the unknowing and the lonely. The bit where all the eyes opened at the start of s5 gave me chills and the last bit where Jon goes back to his s1 look and smiled before turning back around is what really brought out the tears.
I think I just want a happy end so bad lol
(Also the way you drew Nikola O at 1:40 I really love it? You really feel the stranger(-ness?) in her design and it felt like she was looking at *me* which was a bit unsettling and totally fit the wonky vibes of the unknowing.)
I think I could write a whole essay about my feelings about this if I was given the chance so just thank you for making this I'm looking forward to rewatching it when I get myself together again haha
This animatic is the reason Home makes me tear up when i hear it now…
This was SO amazing! I love your designs and the transitions and the artstyle and everything! This song already makes me super emotional, and it combined with the story and your stunning visuals honestly made me cry a bit. VERY good job!!!!
Im so obseseddesssdddd with this animation. I watche d it years ago, probs when it came out and i don't think i comented all my thoughts because i LITERALLY CANNOT. ITS SO GOOD, AND I KEEP COMING BACK TO IT BACAUSE JUST WOW. JUST WOW.
This is gorgeous! Just stunning, I adore your character designs and colour choices and transitions and just the creativity of it all. Really lovely and really inspiring - thanks for sharing!
i am. stunned, this is so beautiful, I NEVER REALIZED THE SONG FITS SO WELL OH MY GOSH....
Holly shit- you're a goddamn amazing artist and animater. This was truly something beautiful and honestly didn't expect the storyboards to work so well for the unfinished bits as much as it did- it gave it a real sense of urgency towards the end as Jon was somewhat loosing himself and the hope to fix the world towards the end of the story.
OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS JUST BEAUTIFUL?? 10/10, DID CRY.
I'm surprised this doesn't have more views, this is wonderful, and every little detail is just 😢 The ending just stuck with me in a certain way and I was HURT thanks op it was great
this is SO PRETTY i just finished tma and this video is helping me cope so hard. I wish I was a fan last summer when the fandom was super active but im so glad to have content like this
This is truly a masterpiece. The way everything flows together is great, I love how many details were added, the hallway scene was a great way of showing many events and my fav moment was the one of Jon sitting at a table throughout many moments in his life.
I literally started crying,holy shit this is BEAUTIFUL
I don’t know a single thing about TMA but I keep coming back to watch this because it’s so beautiful. Really makes me feel a lot for characters I don’t know the names of!
You should totally listen to it it's a gay horror podcast with hot characters that never fails to make me cry it's on Spotify :]
@@safyakhan7857 That sounds cool! I'll check it out
@@masonbeeeeees Glad to be of service! Hope you enjoy!
Words can't express how amazing this is. everything is on point. You've captured everything about the show so well
This has got to be the best animatic I have seen so far, omg. You are so talented and this was so emotional!
This is so damn cool! All those transitions were so well thought out! And your art style- !!! I already know I’m going to be watching this on repeat for the next few months
Goodness this is one of the most beautiful pmvs I've seen goodness gracious amazing work mate
This is one of the most gorgeous and heartbreaking animatics I have ever seen. Very well done
