- Isn't it interesting that Grian had to kill his closest friend in both 3rd Life seasons? And on Hermitcraft he finally got to end everything together with them? Silly, innit?

Grian: But where’s Joel and Timmy?
Scar: They’re not on Hermitcraft.
Grian: Where are they?
Scar: They’re on Empires.
Grian: *Ferb, I know what we’re gonna do today.*
W H E E Z E
i just died
I'm cackling
Jimmy: Oh dear god here comes the boss music again
No comment 😂
I love that the community just unanimously decided to make Grian a parrot after the Pesky bird incident
pesky bird!!
Ikr? It's crazy how such a simple bit turned into a version of Grian that we all decided suited him
He is really a pesky bird...
He is a pesky chicken
I just can't help but hear in my head, watching Scar and Grian looking at each other during the part of "It's an adventure with a breathtaking view"...
Grian: Do you think Mumbo would be proud?
Scar: Absolutely!
Tears. Gahhhh, that's so- yes XD
Sucks I'm in class cause I'm 2 secs from crying lol
Grian and Scar would Totally say that
Yeah, that would happen
"You're crying from Grian Minecraft?"
"The seeing HermitCraft Season 8 as a 'happy ending' to 3rd/last life got to me."
"Alright"
Ooh, dang you really know how to tug on the heartstrings, this is wonderful. Despite the ending shot in the void seeming like a bleak finish for them, at least this time Grian isn't separated from either of them, even if the world's destroyed. This is just so good, you're making me feel a lot of feelings in this house right now
Grian doesn’t have the world, but he has *his* world
I swear I se you absoloutly everywhere
Bro not just the story but I love the little Jelly cat shots like the space helmet Jelly so cute lol
they never died they are still alive his the N E W W O R L D
It really touches the heart and makes my sad & happy 😿
I adore all of this. I also love how Grian going purple right as the moon is gonna hit sort of implies that he's the one who pulled them into the void to save them. He may not have even meant to, just reacted instinctively and activated his watcher powers. No one but him would realize that he'd been the one to do it
Man coming back to this and seeing Jellie at the end there made me have to hold back tears all over again.
This is so amazing! That shot at the end, tho… it’s too late at night to be feeling these feels. Also, I think you’re the first animator to make Grian’s eyes be flat squares without it looking weird. Good job!
same i'm not gonna be able to sleep cause im gonna be sobbing
I know right!! Their Grian design is my absolute favorite
I love their grian design!
Also i noticed peridot in your profile picture! Usually the photo i use is a Steven universe one!
I'll be honest. I never thought anyone could connect three separate series in a 4 minute song but you did and it worked really well. The funny thing this time is that Grian's now paired with Scar legit and he can't kill him... Also Mumbo's not there so yeah. To Double Life we go...
Actually 4 series'!
All the purple bits are a nod to Grians server from years ago, Evo! The purple eyes and wings are a nod to the watchers in that server.
I've been binging it and I have been,, crying a bit after seeing the purple but yeah
@@EepyIya thank you! I was so confused on that bit but that makes so much sense now
@@EepyIya is that where the wings come from? I thought it was because he was pesky birb
@@murpledeer mhm, from the watchers. That's how he got his wings for being a pesky bird. Also, big b.... who grian killed also follows this
@@EepyIya can you maybe explain the watcher/listener lore to me? /Genq
OH this was amazing. I loved the process of this - from 3rd life, and his relationship with Scar and his 'win' when he died at the end, to Last Life and his relationship with Mumbo and that tragic end, how he died there as well and lost BOTH of them... and then to Hermitcraft. Where he found both his friends again, and had good times with them, and even if things ended with the moon crashing into Earth (and some sleep deprivation), they were all safe in the void, together. Finally. Grian drawing them closer with his wings at the end -
Just. My heart. I just LOVE your art style, how you tell the story you want to tell, everything about this. Superb work you funky little artist.
" he found both his friends again, and had good times with them" you could even say that he had... Good Times with Scar (and mambo no. 5)
Feels like my hearts torn but whole at the end
I love how this artist can make Grians rectangle eyes looks so expreesive
MY HEART. This is so absolutely brilliant!! The narrative you told with your gorgeous animation is so heartbreakingly beautiful. I feel as if I’ve just watched a movie. The callbacks to third life and last life with the ending shot of Grian, Scar, Mumbo and Jellie!! Breathtaking.
Hi.
I love your animatics too!
@@AIDragon_2 I think that the story is just great not only because it is drawn so amazingly but also because it is a rollercoaster of emotions you start fun and happy than sad when scar dies in 3rd life and it repeats but leaves it on a sort of cliffhanger in the end. honestly 10/10
WOW. WOWOWOWOW. oh my god. this got me EMOTIONAL!!! your transitions and framing.... the NARRATIVE!!! it's SOOO well crafted. absolutely amazing work.
Hi chrisrin! I just started watching your animatics as well and I just love them!
Ngl I saw your pfp and though you were keralis at first lol
Same! I was balling out my eyes!
This makes grian look so much more peaceful than he actually is lol
1:43 I love how you drew mumbo sitting criss cross lol. But anyways, this animated was amazing!!! I loved both the song and your art style ^^
Mumbo is the sort of person to always sit criss cross
from an artists perspective, yEP. its *so* hard to draw something like that sometimes
YES! Your art is so good! I could watch this on repeat all day!
This is so heartwrenchingly beautiful. I don’t think all the words in the universe can encapsulate it…
CACTUU THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR
I
THIS WAS AMAZING
AT MUMBO AND SCARS DEATHS I LITERALLY HAD TO PUT DOWN MY PHONE AND JUST WALK AROUND FOR A SECOND.
IM SERIOUSLY ABOUT TO CRY. WELL DONE
Bro I love the fact that at The end there is a little jellie aswell
Not going to lie, seeing Mumbo with the ear wings at 3:21 had me nervous due to Fluffle's videos.
But was "aawing" at the end. They were finally both safe next to Grian
✨fluffle trauma✨ gang where ya at?
What is a fluffle?
@@MycatLoki22 Another youtuber
This is gorgeous!! I especially love how you incorporated the Watchers. I feel like they're usually shown as a purely malicious force, but you included them in good and bad moments, which makes it seem like they're just... a part of Grian, not good or bad. I loved it! Really well done!
Agreed
This fits in so well now with double life. Grian comes to hermitcraft to see a man he just murdered and one he did a while back just to wind up as soul mates. Perfection
This...I love this. You wove these three storylines together so well...this is one of my favorite animatics. Ever.
The fact that I was so speechless at this masterpiece that all I could say out of reflex is “moon’s big”
I love that Jellie had her own helmet
This was also just amazing
I live by the headcannon that the world's in the "X Life" series are created by the watchers to observe Grian and his friends in different scenarios and test Grian in his human form, take that wholesomely or maliciously as you wish
Watching this animatic has made me realise that Grian has permanently killed all of the people he loved the most in the Life Series. Like He killed Scar in 3rd Life, Mumbo in Last Life and BigB in Double life, not to mention that he was the reason for his and Scars final death in DL.... All I'm saying is that there's a pattern here...Bad boys betrayal arc maybe?
Wow. Just wow. I really like how you included 3rd Life, Last Life, and Hermitcraft in the same animatic. It really plays into the whole end poem idea of "waking from one dream into another." Well done!
EDIT: I watched it again and my allergies acted up. i'M nOt CrYiNg, yOu'Re CrYiNg!
Dang, the end scene really got me! and when Grian pulls them closer with his outstretched wings... 😭🙂😊😭😭
I keep coming back to watch this and I finally noticed a really cool detail. During the portion of the song done on Hermitcraft we see the scene of Mumbo taking Grian's "soul" to turn himself human again. In the clip of them together after that we see that Mumbo now has Grian's ear wings!
I think I've already commented once on how good this is (if not, it's amazing), but I was re-watching it and realized that Grian wears a crystal. Like, the kind of crystals that Scar sells as a magic man. Don't know if that connection was intentional but dang good job either way.
you don't know how much i love this, i literally giggled/sobbed at the ending where grian pulled scar and mumbo closer, this is too good
Me: what instrument do u play?
Cactuu: *makes this*
Me: Ah, I see. The heartstrings 😢
I’m grown enough to admit that last scene where Grian pulls them closer made me tear up a bit
I don't know if my interpretation of this was meant to be had, but watching this makes me think of Watcher!Grian (purple) as a lonely immortal (likely coming off the end of the EVO SMP) looking into other universes at his "lesser" (finite-lives) selves. He sees one get close to Scar, but have to commit murd-suic, looks for another self who found happiness, and again watches himself forced to terminate a friend. And then he wakes up to these two friendly, familiar strangers who have appeared, wanting to explore this new land, and even when the world is threatened, he's happy that he can, at the least, save these two.
I watched this while I was watching Double Life... I watched this while I was watching 3rd Life... I watched this while I was watching Last Life... I watched this while I was watching Limited Life... now I am finally here watching it after making it to the Hermitcraft S8 Finale. It's just a feeling of completion finally fully understanding one of your favourite animatics that triggers so many emotions and tears
It's so good, Cactuu I can never get over how good it ishrfesauhrfjrfwlakjhrwlkjahfwkjah
I’ve watched this so many times already and I can’t get over how expressive Grian’s face is even if his eyes are two rectangles! It’s amazing and I absolutely adore your designs for Scar Grian and Mumbo!
Your animatics hold the most special place in my heart. Life series has been a constant in my life for a long time, and your art makes it feel so real. In your other desert duo animatic and in this one, the way you portray how grian and scar initially teamed up is gut-wrenching. "Some people long for a life that is simple yet planned" and showing grians first base is so poetic. Thank you for your art.
I love how the fandom basically agreed to give Grian bird traits, like everyone woke up and suddenly agreed, "Pesky Bird Grian!"
I love how the watchers in this are made prominent with the purple imaging, but at the same time hidden. they're sort of hidden in plain sight, which is awesome, especially in hermitcraft
I was just thinking about how much animatic potential 'tightrope' had and BOOM! I watched this and I'm crying
That really small movement of Grian pulling Scar and Mumbo closer with his wings literally made me tear up :')
Beautifull
I feel like this really sets the intensity of the "life" series compaired to hermitcraft an I love every second of it
This was utterly beautiful. Never thought one could connect all three of these worlds together so fluently. Amazing work!
Also, this gave me a new headcannon: Each SMP is a new life and no one remembers the previous except for Grian because of his Watcher background.
I find it interesting how you tied the Watchers in with Grian. It feels like he knows every adventure he tries to go on will eventually end in disaster... but the adventure, the people, the memories are still worth it. Especially with the end of HC season 8, when his eyes and head feathers turned purple... He knew, but he had hoped that maybe, just maybe, this time it would be okay. And in a way, it was. He still had his friends in the end. Whatever they were about to face, they would face it together. This time, he wasn't alone.
ALSO SEASON 9'S LORE HAS ME MAJORLY HYPED LIKE WHAT-
You’ve managed to pierce so deep into my heart. I don’t know if I’ll ever forget this. The emotions from the end of 3rd life, added into this. The loss of a friend by your own hands, then followed by the killing of mumbo. It just takes the narrative of loss of loved ones from your own doing, and makes it 100x more impactful(almost as much as that moon)
HHHHHHH I love this so much!!!
The way it ended so bittersweet with the Hermitcraft bit, the music, reusing some details/ scenes from your other animatic? It's such little things but it makes it so much more nostalgic and emotional and heartwarming and I just can't-
You bet I'm adding this to my playlist now...
The reason there’s no dead bushes in the shot of the desert is because Joel took them all.
(Also awesome animatic, I loved it)
Man grian really does just keep killing the people he cares about in these series
Ok that really hurt.
This animatic was amazing. I love your style, and the way you've spanned across Grian's experience with his friends over the span of three different servers is amazing. I have successfully been saddened.
Amazing.
Thank you.
I swear the life series are not just your normal minecraft its an mazing story telling skill
And the art just brings it all to life
oh my gosh I love the easter egg that is scar has jelly right next to him, goes to snow how deticated Cactuu is.
Watching this after Scars win and Jellies passing just makes the waterworks flow
I LOVE IT!!! That's such an amazing concept - Grian living through three separate lives, I dont know how to word it but the story just works so well, with him waking up after each death and ARSHDIFBIGvjkdMFDE ITS TOO GREAT
also how dare you make me cry over a minecraft animation
I usually listen to music while drawing but when i clicked this video i literally stopped drawing just to watch this beautiful masterpiece.
I found this animatic and thought it was really cute before I started watching Grian and now that I’ve watched him I want to cry
I just genuinely cried. I just aged 10 years 🥹🥹! That was a masterpiece
Good job. I like how when Mumbo was on his red life his face became almost, robotic. Nice touch
Yes, I know this is emotional and all, but I'm the kind of person who would destroy and emotional moment. Its hilarious how in these animatics Grian is always portrayed as crying over Mumbo/Scar's body when he kills them, but, in the actual episode he's like 'HE GOT WHAT HE DESERVED'.
BUT THE LITTLE JELLIE AT THE END I SWEAR IVE WATCHED THIS LIKE 8 TIMES NOW AND ITS SO GOD DAMN BEAUTIFUL!!
I’m brought to tears! There was genuine heartache and joy I experienced watching this! You are a fantastic storyteller with your art and editing! You matched the song with the story so beautifully! I’m left speechless!
That is so goddamn cute, I've never seen the Life Series and Hermitcraft being tied together _SO_ thematically well! It's almost like Hermitcraft is sort of a peaceful relief from the horror and dread of the former, and that *2:55* Reveal where Grian is finally shown with wings again gave me chills.
That ending legit has me crying
I am having difficulty typing this out with teared fingers and blurred eyes
It may be the fact that it's almost 12am for me or the fact that I recently binged hermitcraft seasons 8 + got back into third and last life with the introduction to double life, but this made me scrawl like a baby /pos
You are absolutely amazing at narrative!! No written dialogue and yet you conveye every connection with small details!! Absolutely amazing, I am flabbergasted )-)o
After watching this for the third time I’m still bawling my eyes out. The storytelling and Grian’s story is just beautiful.
Congrats, I'm crying, that last bit where he tucks them closer with his wings has undone me. This is incredible
this made me want to cry because of how amazing it was
I honestly, genuinely didn’t expect to have such a strong emotional reaction to any fan content when I joined the fandom. It was just good fun and shenanigans at first, yknow? And then I stumble upon amazing creations made by amazing creators like you who really grabbed my attention and have me pulled into the emotional weight of it all. The art is beyond incredible and you have such an eye for composition and timing ❤️
It is too late at night to be crying yet i look like a waterfall😭
Grain’s “Breathtaking view” was just Scar smiling. My heart!!!
How many times have you watched this?
Yes.
Every time I wake up and I go on youtube, this has been on my home page and every time I see it I click on it and rewatch it like 50 times- I can not get over how good this is
No matter how many times I watch this it doesn’t get old
I love that grian has even Jelly there at the end with him. protecting his friends with his wings while waiting to go to the next season..
OMG THE END GOT ME! IM LEGIT CRYING! 🥺😭😭😭 I WAS LIKE PLEASE PULL THEM CLOSE TO YOU GRIAN! AND THEN HE DID AND AHHHHHH TWT
this whole thing is so great but i really just cant get over jellie in the little astronaut outfit oh my god
I like how y’all depict grian as an angelic entity
It’s too late at night to be crying!!!!
My heart can’t take this!!
I would like this 1,000,000 more times if physically possible, it had me in tears!
i've lost count how many times i've watched this! and yet i cry everytime!! never thoutgh i'd cry over minecraft smp's lore lol
i'm surprised how so many ppl of this fandom have been able to turn Grian's good humor and energy into such emotional stuff
also, love the designs!!
The transition at 1:21 is so not fair! My heart can't take this!!! It's so well done and it goes to the music so well
I like to think that every series Grian is in, it's a different life and only Grian can remember things from the past series/lifes, and this animatic rlly completed my hc!!
This fandom is brutal. First the animatics make me cry then the fanfics
I like how when it says "I,d risk it all just to be with you" it shows how Grin almost killed Mambo so they could still be friends.
Haven't finished, but I'm so exited, your so cool cactuu
ARROWW THE BELOVED YOU KNOW I HAD TO DO THE ANGSTY AND BITTERSWEET THING \o/
HOW HAVE I NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE THIS IS MY NEW FAVOURITE ANIMATIC EVER!!! YOU CAPTURED THEIR RELATIONSHIPS SO WELL, MY HEART, OH MAN,,,, YOUR PACING WAS INCREDIBLE YOU CAPTURED ALL THE FEELING SO WELL IM GONNA SHOW THIS TO EVERYONE I KNOW
THIS HURTS ME SO MUCH 🤧😭😭😭
grian holding mumbo and scar (and jellie my beloved aaa) in his wings made me unreasonably emotional how dare give me feelings over block game
I cant explain how many times ive watched this its SO good honestly I love the little bits of the Watchers you can see and then the story the animatic tells in general you manage to fit EVERYTHIGN into it in three minutes asklhdjasl AAAAA its SO GOOD!!
THE COMBINATION OF 3RD/LAST LIFE, HERMITCRAFT AND THE GREATEST SHOWMAN IS UNREAL!!! I love your expressions and how you show indication of lives left in the 3rd/last life scenes
aaaaah Grian angst!!! I LOVE THIS.
im not crying- you are
This is beautiful
Although he still hasn’t reunited with Joel in the end 🥲
This is adorable, it made me cry. i will come back in a month or two so i can cry again.
I can't stop watching this. It's high on my list of best Hermitcraft animatics for sure!
This is the second time I’ve ended up in tears because of one of your 3rd Life animatics. Really well done.
This has got to be one of my fav animatics for the life series
Jesus Christ, why am I crying over a minecraft roleplay animatic?! Is this what high art does to people?!
This is the first animation I actually had a tear roll down my face. (That means it is beautiful in every way and is perfecto) that really pulled me. The song fits so perfectly. The art was phenomenal. I hope you are proud
I love this, this is really good made I've watched 3rd/Last life and Hermitcraft season 8 and fgauif gaui gafou this takes me back and really shows off how grian loves his friends !!
