This is the first video like this I've seen that seems to have thought and care put into it, and I don't want that to go unappreciated so I thought I'd address some of the things said. Long comment inbound, in the years since I quit RUclips I still haven't mastered the art of brevity.
It's really weird hearing someone speak of the series fondly in a way that makes sense to me. It's easy to dismiss some kid liking it without being able to articulate why in any meaningful way, kids like almost anything colorful that moves, but stuff like this forces me to confront the possibility that maybe I did do something right after all. I still don't see it, I still just see poorly animated messes put together by a teenager in his spare time, but maybe that's part of what people liked. Considering that I myself cannot stand media that comes across as corporate and calculated, I guess I could see the merit of something so genuine and straightforward. Especially when it's frequently compared to loveless algorithm-bait. I won't give myself much credit for the series, but I can say with confidence that it came from the heart. Much of it certainly didn't come from the brain, at least in the colloquial sense.
It's hard for me to look back at this series, in fact what's shown here is the most I've seen of it in over half a decade, because I just see a whole heap of embarrassing mistakes from my teenage years and I always feel the need to justify it even though realistically I think everyone understands that what you did years ago doesn't reflect who you are now. I'll still do it a little bit though, at least in regards to the names which I think are what bother me the most at this point. I was in that stage I think a lot of underage (and some adult) writers go through where they think looking up name meanings online or using words from foreign languages is the pinnacle of naming schemes. Mucus is an especially obvious sign of this since I just put "slime" into Google Translate and somehow didn't realize that mucus is an English word as well. Not to mention that him being French adds nothing and just raises unnecessary questions about the setting. On top of that there's no real coherence to the names; some just have their mob name but slightly tweaked, some have actual names, some keep their mob name altogether, and so on.
I think that's a pretty good reflection of my creative process at the time though, or the lack of one. I just did whatever came to mind without much consideration. Most of the time I'd be setting up a scene without even knowing what was going to happen in it, and letting chaos reign from there. The little voice in your head telling you "That's probably a bad idea" was very quiet in mine. Which inevitably led to a lot of dubious decisions.
"What if the slime accidentally turned himself into a potion? Will people even understand that's what happened since I can't animate it well enough to make it look accidental? Doesn't matter, it'll work out."
"The Christmas special I was working on won't be finished in time. I know, I'll just add Christmas music to this other video that has nothing to do with Christmas! That seems like a sensible solution."
"I found a song I like the other week, why not put it into the video? Does it fit the tone? Will it seem weird to anyone that recognizes it? Too late to worry about that, I already did it. Also, what's copyright?"
Considering how popular the series was, it's kind of bizarre in hindsight just how careless I was about it. I would occasionally catch some dire animation errors in the editing and just leave it in because I couldn't be bothered to re-render and re-edit it all. And then there was the copyright side of things. Nowadays pretty much everyone knows how draconian RUclips is about that, but at the time it wasn't talked about as much (at least in my circles) nor was I old enough to know how to react to a video getting that scary copyright claim. With Stealing I was able to just replace the music (it originally had Zelda music, as per the recommendation of a classmate who was just as clueless about copyright), but with Hiding I don't remember what happened to mess up the audio so much. Just that I didn't care enough about the series at that point to try to fix it.
Funny enough, even Cooking was copyright claimed years after uploading even though I got that Jingle Bells track from RUclips's own music library. I guess they lost the rights to it, which a sensible company wouldn't hold their creators accountable for, but you know, RUclips. And unlike Stealing and Hiding, I wasn't even able to remove the music because the video "had too many views". So I just unlisted it out of spite so the claimants wouldn't get ad revenue from it, which I also did for the Halloween special since that music also got claimed with no way of removing it. Of course, I completely forgot to remove them from the playlist, but by the time I noticed that I didn't care and just left it alone. Again, it was all hilariously mishandled.
Another fun fact is that the reason Sylvester was late in Mining is because I genuinely forgot about him. I only noticed that when the animation was finished, and hastily added that bit to explain his absence. Adding all those new students to the cast was not a great move, and it was largely done because people were asking for it and I had my usual train of thought of "Sure why not I guess". Turns out the "why not" was that having to juggle such a large number of characters was kind of a chore. Giving them all something to do and having to put them all into the scene and move around made animating a lot less fun. I didn't fully realize it until later (since I again didn't spend much time reflecting on anything), but I didn't even like most of the new students. I always had a hard time thinking of something fun to have a silverfish do and it annoyed me that it was too small to even sit at its desk. It didn't look like it belonged there. The cave spider had similar size problems on top of just being a reskin of another mob, which was also an issue I had with the magma cube. Everything they did, existing characters could already do. And having a wither there as a student and not a staff member seemed strange in hindsight.
As for the lack of score card in Acrobatics, I actually explained that in an annotation (Remember when RUclips had those?). I was indeed tired of everyone disagreeing with the results and just told people to come up with their own grades. But then people of course complained about THAT instead and I added a second annotation saying "Okay fine, here you go". But since RUclips got rid of annotations you can no longer see any of that. It's also worth mentioning that I was using the Swedish grading system, not realizing that it varies quite a bit in the rest of the world. In Sweden, E is considered a passing grade. So getting an E or D wasn't necessarily bad. Only an F means you failed. To my understanding this is not the case in most other places, in fact E doesn't even exist for some reason. It just goes ABCDF, which still doesn't make sense to me. But getting back on topic, nowadays I would have just ignored such comments, in fact if anything I might have been tempted to make the grades unfair on purpose to encourage them and boost engagement. But that's another distinguishing feature between myself then and now. At the time I didn't have that cynical, detached mindset, I was taking each comment to heart and reacting accordingly. Probably taking things too personally at times, but I think that's part of growing up.
I really like your closing statement. With how often people draw the wrong conclusions, and with how difficult it is for me to explain my mindset (especially since it's like speaking on behalf of another person I barely remember), it's a refreshingly accurate summary. I think I myself tend to put too much weight on what was really just a teen messing around in an animation program and sharing it with whoever wanted to see it without a second thought. And while I'm unhappy with a lot of it today, I'm glad I had that phase. For years now I've had the opposite problem where nothing is ever good enough, so it's nice to have that backlog of stuff I did do. Sure, it came at the expense of it being a huge embarrassment in hindsight, but at the time I had fun with it and at least it proves that I CAN do things. I think everyone needs to do that at some point. Just do what interests them without worrying about how it'll turn out or how it'll be perceived in hindsight. Part of me still thinks that I should have spent time actually practicing animation and storytelling before I shared anything with the world, but it's hard to say that when it worked out as well as it did.
Oh, and because I'm seeing a lot of people in the comments (and elsewhere) talking about wanting someone to make a proper continuation and even considering doing it themselves, I also want to say what I always say on that subject... Don't. It was one series by one person and that's all it needs to be. Even a good imitation is still an imitation, and I would much rather see people explore their own creativity and develop new, original concepts for others to be nostalgic for. I understand the feeling of wanting the things you like to go on forever or at least for longer than they did, but they can't (and/or shouldn't) always do that and they'll still be there to revisit. It's so much more fun and interesting to see people share their own unique ideas, and in my experience it's more fun for the one doing it as well.
I think that more or less covers what I wanted to say, but I've never been great at getting everything out at once so feel free to leave replies if there's anything anyone wants to ask. Again, nice work on this, I think it's a solid retrospective and it even managed to make me a little nostalgic for that period of my life.
I did not expect you to comment on this video, let alone watch it, but wow, what a great read your comment was.
Thank you so much for the feedback! I’m really thankful to have gotten your perspective on the series and what you remember about your thought process at the time. It may not be to same extent, but I know what it’s like to create things at a younger age that embarass you to this day. However, I think it’s something that every artist has to experience at least once in order to grow.
But at the same time, I can’t help but to find your work incredibly charming. Monster School as a concept feels like something I would’ve created with my toys in my bedroom, and I appreciate how genuine it is to watch. It’s a shame to hear how much of a toll its popularity took on you at a younger age, but I’m happy that you’re taking it in stride rather than forcing your old work into the ground. I’ve seen creators do that before, and it’s never fun for the artists involved, or the audience who still care about your work.
Part of me will always view your animations as a young artist who had fun creating whatever they wanted to in the moment. And, I know I may be projecting a bit of my own experiences onto yours, but I take solace in knowing that I wasn’t the only one embarassing myself online for the sake of growth. I’m glad that you used Monster School as a step in advancing as an artist. Thank you for creating a series that resonated with so many people, and I hope that you continue to push yourself even further to be your best self!
(Also, would you mind if I pinned your comment? I know that you said “feel free to leave replies”, but I’d rather you not be bombarded with too many questions or inarticulate comments if you’re not comfortable with that.)
@@theoriginalalex Yeah, I genuinely believe that we all need to normalize being cringe. Everyone has, or at least should have, phases in their lives they come to regret but which were nevertheless essential for their development. Some people are just more public about it than others. Especially since the internet became a thing, which I largely consider a net positive because it's made it easier than ever to realize that you're not alone. Whatever problems you have are most definitely experienced by many others too, and you can find relief in that and exchange solutions with each other. I also do agree that seeing other people embarrass themselves can be weirdly inspirational. I've had similar experiences looking at others' work where I think to myself "Man, this isn't very good at all... But people seem to like it anyway and the creator seems happy", which is very comforting and helps somewhat with my crippling perfectionism.
And sure, go right ahead and pin it. Years of running my RUclips channel has rendered me immune to discomfort from questions and inarticulate comments, no worries there.
@@WillcraftAnimations Really love that mentality, even if it’s a little hard to admit that we were all cringe at some point. You have a really mature mindset when it comes to this stuff, I respect that a lot. :)
Ok, the reason why E is missing in the American grading system is because parents are dumb, they thought E was good (It *WAS NOT* in US). Hope that explains everything! 😁
@RelaxAnimationsUhh excuse me what the hell are you doing here-
It's a shame what happened to monster school. I always wondered if it would be possible for someone to make a monster school series based on the old one that was actually good.
that would be the dream :)
Exactly
I would if I actually knew how
BRO ALAN BECKER EXISTS-
@@an_earthling03I haven't watched Alan Becker for awhile, but his Minecraft content is different compared to the original Monster school. I really enjoyed both don't get me wrong here, but they don't work the same.
God the original animations might not have been cinematic level of perfect, but they were charming in their own way. Such a shame to see how much the concept has deteriorated, to the point where those who do know about it probably only know about the more modern gross ones. Great video!
thank you!! i agree that the original Monster School was really charming, and i’m glad that i can appreciate it now as silly as it is
Those were golden
If only at least the newer animations were good
monster school literally inspired me to make minecraft animations of my own, i once tried to recreate willcraft's animations and failed 😭
@@jonathansdreamland1207there are still good ones, but they're overshadowed by the cringe ones
It's kinda sad how little people are talking about Alan Becker's take on the series because frankly, Alan's take is amazing.
yes they did so well
Fr
I never knew that Skellington’s poor archery skill was original to Monster School.
Tbh alan becker take was basically the monster school, the one by will craft. Props to him and his team for even researching willcrafts animations
I don't have a single bad thing to say about the Willcraft Monster School videos. They might be dated by todays standards, but there is a level of charm to the way these were animated. I was in middle school when the series was still active and remember being excited to see a new episode when one would release. Its a shame that the series name has been tarnished, but it was good while the Willcraft era lasted. I hope he's getting on well in life.
i hope he’s doing well in life too, and expressing himself in any way that he pleases
I bet he is probably really angry that ireedeemable monsters are ruining his content
@@Coolestguy101 he actually addressed what he thought about all the new monster school videos. he doesn’t really care, but it does suck that people now use his idea for nothing but profit and that he doesn’t earn anything from it
@@theoriginalalextoxic
Z U P A Y
What makes the Willcraft Monster School unique from other Monster School copies is that each character has their own personality and gimmick. It did not rely on pop culture trends, instead it focuses on how each student performs their subject and the grades show how well they did.
I have several good monster school creators to recommend:
Rancher6 His monster school is the closest in style to willcraft. However, it is better because it has lore and more fluid animation.
Bgzar: He is trying to make monster school into the next annoying villagers. His monster school is more like a plot driven fantasy story than anything else.
Ghost block: He is generally just funny. If you want a good laugh, his video should be your go to option.
Rat kidz: His animation is the most detailed out of all the animators I have seen. Also, he kinda follows a enemy of the week format that can genuinely pull on your heartstrings.
spector and marcraft exist
Alan Becker's AvM Monster School Episode: Am I a joke to you?
Shame Rat kidz abandoned the vegeta vs vegeta777 series
@Admiralbendy I haven't seen these other monster school animators, but I can say that Alan shouldn't exactly count here.
Alan's episode is a nod to Will's monster school series, only having it be one single episode in a separate story.
All of these other animators are focused around the monster school universe specifically (probably). They got a series basically.
it wasn’t a 30 minute long video :-)
also Animation vs. Minecraft’s Monster School episode is the best thing to come out of Monster School since Willcraft
Sad
its ok im sure the other half will be on monster school part 2 (SPIDER MAN AND ELSA IN DETENTION??) right?
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
@@cr4719 gulp
I think you're actually one of the few youtubers that can make 30 minute long videos and make them interesting all the way through
I started watching monster school videos since 2016 at computer shops. All I could say is, Willcraft's version is still better than any of the latest monster school. Nostalgia and fun to watch. Unlike those new ones that are just bruh and can't make a replica of the original.
It was really a great video man, I did miss watching the OG monster school again
thank you!!
the ONLY good modern content about monster school, in my opinion, is the alan becker's version of it
@RelaxAnimations Please stop? ( T_T )
One of the key parts of my childhood. Man, I didn't appreciate just how good Willcraft's Monster School was when I was younger (probably cause I was a kid). I hope that someday, someone can kinda revive it properly for old times sake, even if the original audience are adults now.
Maybe that person could even be me...
Tbh if anyone even tried an actual honest attempt to revitalize the concept, it would already turn out instantly better then some of the of actual shit shows some of these channels post.
@AdrianCasasanta pop
I want to know how the hell a Kevin Macleod song got copyright claimed. All his song's are royalty-free meaning anyone can use them, no one can claimed to have crated them after their creation, and Kevin himself can't copyright strike people if they use his songs without his permission. I'd like to know how this even happened.
it was probably a false claim. i got one of my my singing monsters videos copyright claimed by someone who remixed the same song i did, despite me not even being able to find that remix anywhere
Seeing a video topic like this pop up on my subscriptions was not what was I expecting for today! Seeing all those clips gave me a form of whiplash and remembering my suppressed memories of what it was like basing my whole personality off Endie when I was like 12... good times honestly.
i’m glad i wasn’t alone 😵💫
somebody needs to make an actual faithful remaster of every original monster school videos, and maybe even add a few extras to continue the legacy if possible. hell maybe add the guardian, stray, husk, and endermite as new students. go crazy with it but make sure to keep it as enjoyable as the originals had been.
Aka not yt kids garbage
Although as a kid I never really watched the original monster school and watched the other variations,
I can positively say that the original monster school was very neat and entertaining.
Honestly it's nice to see a video that talks about monster school like this, specifically being about the original series and giving it a fair review as all forms of media should get.
Which I'd say is a breath of fresh air considering 95% of the time Monster School is talked about on RUclips, it's always presented in bad light (for obvious and understandable reasons) but the original series is barely touched by most videos in actual depth, other than that it was the first.
And it's also nice to see that you even had criticism for the series, because shocking revelation, Monster School isn't some profound Minecraft masterpiece, it's just a pretty charming solid early Minecraft series, but it probably doesn't deserve to be held to REALLY high regards as most people do.
really like this comment, i agree with yohr thoughts and thank you for the feedback! :)
It is so nice to see someone analyze the original monster school I’m tired of people dunking on it just because of the other weird versions of it.
Great work btw!
thanks!!
I remember watching these all the time! One of my favorites was some of the old in real life versions. Still better than any modern version… unless someone aims to make a better one.
man these are so nostalgic nowadays, sucks how much it’s devolved recently 😔
so true dude, so true
also can i say rq that i didn’t expect you to comment and that your parappa mod is really cool :)
Want to know how long I've been watching Monster School for? I remember when the hiding episode had MUSIC! Also, for the acrobatics episode, Willcraft had an annotation with the scores, saying they forgot to animate it in.
Alan Becker doing a Monster School episode based on Willcraft's series gave me so much nostalgia. It's incredible.
Monster school in 2014 to 2019 were actually made with some effort while the new ones are just milking views
I used to watch the original series as a kid.its sad to see it change
2:25 ain’t no way, bro lookin like he bouta pull up at kitten’s house lmao
Finally, this video helped me remember the one guy who not only made Monster School that are genuinely good, but also kickstarted the trend.
We need to pay tribute to the original series by Willcraft by remaking all the episodes.
Monster School is actually how i got into youtube. Im not kidding! My older sister used to lend me her phone at night when i was about 5/6 to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. One night i saw recommmened next to it a monster house episode, i dont remember much about it but i know sylvester was in it. After i watched it, i was recommened a stampylongnose video, which then lead me down a rabbit hole to discover LDShadowLady, DanTDM, Popularmmos and a bunch more! Its weird to think how different my childhood could've been without monster school
Awesome video. Brought back my old memories i have forgotten. A huge thank you for WillCraft, for filling my life with joy. Today's monster school videos are something absolute opposite of making my day.
I loved watching this when I was younger! I was much of a Minecraft fan back then. However, the newer ones are... much different. Good video though, keep it up as long as you enjoy making them!
thanks dude!!
Tbh, no one ever did Minecraft School as well as Willcraft, I absolutely adore that series.
(granted, this is probably because he was the OG creator of the series, so he must've known how to make it work, but I still stand by that. Also this might be since the rest of MS-related stuff I've seen on YT were too "cringy YT Kids-esque material")
oh 100%, but i always have a morbid curiousity for what’s going on with Monster School today so i enjoy those videos as well. it’s just surprising how much RUclips hasn’t cracked on stuff like that..
Man I love monster school when I was a toddler now its just something left to rot in kids content thanks for making a video about it
i remember those vids, thank you for helping me find the source for these old episodes
I’m really glad to see that the OG Monster School is still remembered fondly and not just written off because of the garbage we get today. Very nice video too!!
Also nice Battle Cats reference at 13:22. Based
I freakin loved Monster School as a kid. Also 1st to comment
same here!
nice job!
Same it was so cool as a kid
Why is nobody talking about Alan Becker's interpretation in his AvM shorts? It has a monster school episode that has a really nice story
I remember seeing these vids borrowing my moms ipad and sitting on the couch, I’m just genuinely happy that people out there experienced similar things and overall just happy to think about this stuff again, thanks for the Amazing video❤
This series really left an impact on me. My friend and I always made Minecraft comics in school, and one series I did was about Monster School, and the concept alone has inspired me to create so many other things with similar concepts, like monsters in casual environments like this, going to school.
i love every transition to an episode you put here (specially the cooking one)
I’m glad this beautiful video is back!
I love your editing and commentary jokes so much and once you put "girls a miner" parody and played the music at "Mining" episode I completely lost it 😂 Instant sub
hahaha, thank you!
Reason animation nowadays aren’t on level is just simply that almost all of the ones I’ve seen (sitting with my 8 year old cousin) are shorts which naturally just have exadurated plots and ridiculous amounts of sound affects and trying to piggy back on the latest trend in anything whereas the original was just it wasn’t trying to do anything other than show some mobs being in school with actually decent plot progression
Also because most of those creators don't even try with the animation, since it takes very little skill to make minecraft animations on mineimator, unless you wanted them to be genuinely good.
Willcraft also used Mineimator for monster school back then, but at least he tried to improve with it, and that's also with the limitations that came with the program being relatively new to the minecraft community.
@@Turbulation1kinda unfair lol, those cringe mc animation vids are getting more views than those who actually tries to do better (im one of those people)
it's kinda making me bitter tbh
Monster School was such a happy part of my childhood, seeing it desecrated like this in the modern day makes me really upset
"This is gonna be a 30 minute video, isn't it?"
With good memories like these, I wish it was.
The Willcraft videos were so great, I learned alot.
The monster school community has the exact same story as the furry community; the bad side is so overly exposed, hardly anyone has the time or interest to look at the actually good aspects of it

I loved Monster School, shame it was tarnished by what the community did to it
i actually grew up with Monster school as one of the many things i watched on RUclips, it was mostly Willcraft's animations with some of the early non-Willcraft ones (and those actually had some quality in them) and i have good memories of those
This was randomly recommended to me and it didn’t disappoint
You deserve my sub
Thank you for making this video
I have to say, I found this channel a bit at random with the PvZ plushies video but I've seen the rest of them and the quality is actually pretty high and I find the content interesting!
Keep up the good work 👍
(In my opinion, it's a bit of a shame that actually good videos like this are crushed by the garbage that the algorithm makes everybody watch)
thanks dude!! i appreciate that you enjoyed my videos enough to check out more!!
Dude I use to watch this series back when i was younger and you gave back memories of these awesome series
Well this will a pretty interesting one 😂
Love these uploads dude 👌
thank you so much man!!
8:51 THANK YOU SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT
Great job on the video, man! So sad to see what Monster School’s become nowadays. After seeing one of Alan Becker’s AvM Shorts, I hope that someone could start their own Monster School series and restore it to its former glory.
Alan Becker's monster school was really faithful to the original, even emulating (most of) the personalities of the original mobs, and their canon names are the original names Willcraft gave them
@@Nugconplus skelington is bad with the bow until red helps him, a nice detail
This show is so nostalgic for me
underrated you deserve so many more views, likes, and subs
honestly, I had completely forgotten about Monster School until I binged Animation vs Minecraft and saw the Monster School episode, and I was just hit with a wave of memories.
Man, I loved Monster School, I'm sad to see what people are doing to it, and I'm glad that Alan Becker and his team had stuck with what was the original version, instead of making some weird ass version of it.
I didn't thought I've watched the og Monster School until this 12:21 part, that smile... my gosh i just had a deja vu
The mining episode was one of my favs, loved this series
Bro that was my childhood thanks for covering this! 👍
man u deserve more views i remember watching a pokemon monster school video as a kid 🤣awesome vid 👍
I remember watching some of these episodes when i was a wee boy.
Thank, for bringing it back
3:30 bro, i laughed so hard in this part that my kleptomaniac chair stole my phone lol 😂😂
Nice.
I have fond memories about Monster School too.
such good animation yet so underatted and I remember these things :')
This was one of my childhood things. I remember watching monster school back then when it was at its hights.
thank you for giving me nostalgia, I will watch this whole video
appreciate it!
Even though I wasn’t part of this community, I can see how important it was during its prime, and how much it hurts to see what people do with it now.
Also Alan Becker’s Animation Vs Minecraft: Monster School episode is great.
good video man!
Just found the channel,and to be honest...
This was a pretty decently enjoyable video!Your content reminds me of Terror's content,and i love it.
*subbed scribed.*
thank you for subbed scribing!
Yo, the backround changed =D hope to see more videos becouse i just subscribed!
(Also, there is a refrence to the pvz plushie video in the corner where the shelf is, we might all know that.)
I remember this Monster School, thanks for bringing back memories
Baller, Skibibi Toilet, and the Grimace Shake have been prime examples of memes that were cringe from the start
I hate those memes i agree with your comment so much
Yes, these memes are cringe. Tho I have to disagree about skibibi toilet. Skibibi toilet was was supposed meme from the start, but how many people like this so much that Creator made more. And he changed to meme to effort lore which many love it. If he doesn't change and keep the meme, I can be sure that they will hate it even more. Baller and grimace shake don't. They just memes that everybody hate it overtime and called it cringe. (I still respect your comment. Sorry about the grammar.)
@@Hamad5okwhen a meme exist
The kids ruin it
Besides Willcraft, I vaguely remember another Minecraft animator, not much really, but what I can recall is that their skin has glasses which were just white scares, those stereotypical ones a lot of skins with glasses have, I remember they were working on a hunger games-esque video that had a lot of unfinished lighting, I sadly can't recall the name of the channel but I watched it around the same time as Willcraft
it's kind of a shame how mamy great Minecraft animators, who's passion was their mark, have been forgotten to time
YES. I loved Monster School when I was younger! Thank you for doing it justice!
thank you for watching!!
6:06
Holy shit you cannot hit me with that animation
I loved that thing when I was younger and would watch it to death
Such a shame that one of the original RUclips classics got ruined by imitators
Actually not even imitators because they feel nothing like the original
But honestly I’m glad that the creator stopped making new episodes when it was god
Don’t be sad that it was over be happy that it happened
Kinda like filthy frank honestly he quit making filthy frank videos when his channel was still good and proceed with his passion
I can’t say the same for others
Bro thank you for reminding me of this, I forgot how enjoyable these were, and I used to watch it repeatedly when I was younger lol
glad to know that my video is bringing up lost memories!
i love the plush blover in the background very nice video!
thanks!!

Sometimes I wish we could relive those memories. Awesome video, actually made me cry inside knowing what has become of this series.
6:08 this just triggered my fight or flight response
I’m just now learning that the monsters have actual names
Cool video :)
thanks!
Very interesting to see a video about this topic come up! Bro, I forgot how fun to watch it was when i was younger man (my grammar here kinda sucks so I hope you can besr with it lol)
thanks dude!
11:01 I remember the Bus Driver when I was a little kid watch monster school. Honestly, one of the best series (only the original) on RUclips.
I watched every monster school variation
Man i loved this
Man It would be so nice if there where a remake
this animation channel in really interesting new sub :D
Let's go ITS BACKKK
i hope willcraft continues the series. i really loved it.
thanks for talking about this nostalgic series! literally, it was the first minecfart animation I've seen in my life! So good the original, but these more recent videos made by people who CLEARLY don't care about the original, it hurts and fills me with rage! the only one who gave respect to the original was Alan Backer, and in a stick figure animation! only real fans understand what made the original so great! great video friend, and yes, Endi IS the best character! (it was this series that made me love Endermans lol ^-^)
I remember i watch monster school before, before and after, it just getting more worst, i really miss willcraft's monster school videos so much!
seeing things like this make me want to try and make a monster school of my own.
maybe a more modern take, but still a feel on the roots.(no voice acting, care put into the characters, ect.)
but at the end of the day, I love to see old nostalgia being brought up again.
the original videos were my childhood, all the replicas tried but failed to capture the feel of the OG's, not to mention that it's almost completely content farm slop now :(
This video has everything I love
God, I remember these... I forgot who originally made them. Real nostalgia.
I didn't know about Willcraft who is the first guy who made monster school. I just found a basic monster school video and thankfully not those cringe meme ones. Ahhhhh classic originality and basics and not overused running memes. Anyways thank you TheOriginalAlex for the awesome content. First PVz2 and something I remember like old delicious tea. Thank you
no problem! thanks for watching
God the nostalgia. This was top tier content back in the good ol days. I wish I could go back sometimes.
I cannot agree more when you said it’s like a telephone game, with each monster school straying further and further away from the original
This video gived me nostalgia. ❤️
that jingle in the brewing section was fire.(this 6:03.)
