- Can You Ever Go Home Again? This video is a bit of a tribute to a show I love, Over The Garden Wall which is turning 10 years old this November. Wow time flies. I've been thinking about the Journey Wirt & Greg go on and how journeys change us which is the whole impetus of this video. Why did I make this, I don't know, I wanted to. I hope you enjoy.

Over The Garden Wall will always be special to me. It makes me feel closer to my grandmother who always loved the fall and winter holidays. The blend of cozy Americana and Autumn themes remind me of how she'd always decorate her house for Thanksgiving. She ended up passing away back in 2018 right around Thanksgiving time so the Holidays are still really hard, but watching this show always helps me feel more connected with her, not to mention one of the singers in the music group sounds really close to her when she sings. It may not have been the way I expected to attach myself to OTGW, but I never miss rewatching it every year because of that.
I've wanted to talk about Over The Garden Wall for a while now. Its a show I fell in love with from the moment I first saw it. I hope this video does some justice to just how amazing it is.

10 years... I didn't realize it'd been that long. I enjoyed your exploration of the themes of this beautiful show.
I know! I was washing dishes and almost cried when he said ten years 😂😅
You seem like a warm person and this video was like a cup of hot coco during life’s harsh winter.
throwing in the minecraft music at the end is a dirty move lol
After I watched this show for the first time, I spent a solid 2 weeks psycho analyzing the meaning and what everything was for to myself and my friends. We ultimately came up inconclusive but we knew we enjoyed it nonetheless and we took joy in that. And figured we should just be thankful that it existed for us to be happy with to begin with
My god your video took me out. I was just looking for a calming video essay to watch while I did some work but wow, you got my attention. I think this is the best video essay ive ever seen. I really lovedthe way that you didnt just focus on the unknown like a lot of people tend to do, and instead focused on its impact on the characters and the changes that came during their interactions with it. When i saw this video only had 650 liked i audibly gasped. Thank you for this little treat
Calling Dante’s inferno “self insert fan fiction” made me laugh outloud haha
Listening to it it really is with the way he goes about everything like I can see it
I just rewatched your video "is sorry ever enough?"
Perfect timing (:
Such a good watch
love this video and the messages within, but also the entire time i was watching i couldn't stop thinking about how your voice sounds a lot like wirt's, to me at least. makes me think of adult wirt reflecting on his past, good vibes
OVER THE GARDEN WALL OMG AND THIS IS SO NEW
I have always loved this show, I love how you incorporate so many references like fantastic mr fox, in my opinion one of the greatest movies of all time, I love your content, I hope you keep uploading this sublime content.
Excellent, excellent video that describes feeling that I've always had but struggle to put into words. Well done.
Also, love the DPS scenes
Thanks thats super kind of ya! Writing this video I found it tough to exactly vocalize the feeling myself so I'm glad it came across clearly and not like the rambling of a mad man 😅
I've never known what I want in the long term. I live small goal by small goal and it took a long time for me to accept that it's okay to feel like that. This puts into words exactly what I got from this show without truly knowing it.
10:50 , a rooted thing, you say?... Well, as long as it's not an Edlew- OH NOOOO!!!😱
I LOVE over the garden wall, I do in fact watch it every fall and I loved this breakdown!! Love seeing such an amazing show get recognition
It really is an instant classic for me, such a fun and warm show to watch. My friends and I watch it every fall 😅
You make some of the best video essays on the platform. 10/10 again!
Name a better combo than Napoleon and Fall. But seriously man I hope you make more videos, I’ve been going through a quarter life crises and your Fantastic Mr fox video saved me. Same with this, amazing writer
Ay what can I say its my fav season 😅 You're too kind, but I def know the feeling of that crisis it'll put us through the ringer but hey we'll come out on top!
one of my fav takes on this beloved series - you're on the right path!
i’ve never immediately subscribed to a channel so fast in my life.
I just found this channel and wow! Man I adore your content. This and the fantastic Mr.Fox video have really hit home for me. Thank you for your incredible work!!
i love all these new video essays you are doing!
Beautiful video yet again. Another masterpiece. What a genius. How you‘re not already famous is beyong me
Well thats far too kind, but I'm glad you enjoyed Gred!
I was watching your old minecraft video to see if your diction had improved and it has so much in two years time. Good job man. Also its an otgw video essay and im definitely gonna watch it later. but good job on your diction bro im proud of u
Hey thanks, its been something I've worked on. I think Streaming on the side of these essays helped me find my voice in that way so its great to hear that it comes through in the videos
Awesome video, I have always loved this show but I really didn't think about it more than a cute show about learning confidence in yourself and not taking family for granted. But seeing through the lens of Dante is crazy in just the right way to truly express this story. Keep up the good work!!
This video is amazing, im in awe!
No, I guess. My father passed away, even if by some sheer miracle I do go home, it won't be the same..
Home exists only in my memory now. Time, it was time more than anything that took that from me.
Make peace with the people that you love, once one of them is gone, whatever you had is a distant memory.
Hey man please stop making me cry, thanks
my friend showed me this show when it came out, Im so glad they did :)
I'm six days late to this... oops
Anyway love the vid. The ideas you pitch are certainly interesting and fun to think. Encouraging if you will. I haven't seen over the garden wall (not by choice it isn't available where I live) but from what I've gathered and what you've talked about it sounds cool. This kinda feels like a sequel to the growing up video you did. Is it as good as the original? No, but what sequel is? This brings back all the cozy vibes that I loved about it and I think thats a great thing. I think the quote at the end kinda rings true to me in some way, I'm looking for a job but I don't know what type or industry but I think it that not knowing has me avoiding unknowns I guess cause I don't really have a plan and failure isn't really something that can happen from a lack of a plan. I like this vid. I could listen to you yap for hours on end. I can't wait for the next one. Also real quick Bee and Puppy cat MENTIONED!!!
anyway, loved the video, hope to see you again, have a good one!
Jokes on you, but today I watched about 6 random videos, where I was told to embrace the unknown.. I think the Universe had a message for me 😅
gotta watch this again great vid
I was Wirt for Halloween! I think I’ll be an OTGW fan forever
Home doesn't exist outside our mind
Infinity train mentioned 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ngl, as a "poor person" all my memories of winter are cold. 😅 Wood stoves and two story farm houses are chilly asf in winter. I do have memories of cozying uo with my siblings and parents. But, the bitter cold is a mistress I know all too well.
Lets goooo! Naps content!!!! Video essay!!!!

Very great video!
If you haven't, you should watch Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean (obv gonna recommend against part skipping). It also tackles the unknown of the future and human's existential relationship with that unknown. The contrast between the the main character and the main villain serves as an amazing exploration of what it means to accept fate.
Watch it, let it give you an existential crisis.
Man this video is mean you lulled me into nerdy comfort with the Dantes shit and then hit me with the real feelings at the end with the stupid slow minecraft music
all of your videos are great and wonderfully made and awesome but this one is one of the few to really hurt slash pos
im at the end of my college career finally having to face the choices ive been putting off for decades about where i want to stay and who i want to go with because i cant stay with everyone and im getting a degree i dont want and need to find something new for the first time in my life and this . stupid video. damn you nap. good job
Aw man I totally get that. Its an odd feeling trying to navigate who you are/want to be. Choices in life like you've described are always the hardest cause they always carry some sadness even when its the right move. As selfish as it is though I'm glad the video reach you in that way, unknowns are something I struggle with so it's always comforting to hear others do to : )
1:14 woah i wonder who’s music video thats from
Good video
🍁🍂🎃
ANOTHER PEAK VIDEO! MAKE SURE TO PREORDER BATGIRL 2024 COMING OUT NOVEMBER 6TH

First off: Holy f*cking shiet I am f*cking water with my eyes (crying)
second : 9:18 WHAT IS THE NAME OF THAT MUSICAL???
It’s beetlejuice
Skip to 3:00 if u don’t wanna sit through that boring intro. Dude literally timed it up. I’m suprised it’s over the 10 minute mark
Edit; he called himself a hack so there you go! He in it for the views
Hey man appreciate the feedback, my intros can definitely be a little long 😅 its mostly my way of formatting an essay 3min intro three 6 min chapters and a 3 min conclusion. If you found it dragged though thats good to know for future
eat your hat? you sound like mr, brownlow's bf from oliver twist
