I like how his accent gets subtlety more fancy and villainous as the story goes on, reflecting how he’s slightly reverting towards his original Georgian Era accent as his identity is revealed more and more
Forgot about this gem lol BASIRA: Can we cut the bullshit? ELIAS: What bullshit might that be? BASIRA: The part where you pretend you don't spend your whole time watching us. ELIAS: ...Sometimes I'm eating.
@@aswarmofcrabs he later refers to Jon’s extracting statements from unwitting people as “eating.” So by that analogy he’s sometimes using his scrying to spread just random terror and paranoia.
The fact that Elias says nearly the same things when confronting Martin and Melanie (“It’s not your fault, it’s just bad luck” “so this is, what, a cry for attention?”) really leads me to believe that he’s done this for so many angy archive staff that he has it down to a spreadsheet
I think that he's one of the best love to hate characters I've encountered. I love when he's on screen, but also would readily commit brutal pipe murder if I ever met him. It's impressive.
I'm fully convinced the only reason hes hated is because hes in opposition to Jon. If they had teamed up in the show we would be rooting for him till the end
@@bellringer53 i mean it depends on how much of his attitude and actions would change if he teamed up with jon. A lot of people dont like basira because she became such a hypocrite and refused to see the similarities between jon and daisy's situations and only defending daisy but constantly faulting jon. Something similar could happen with elias where he could be working with jon but still manipulate jon or others via mind terrorism so people would probably still hate him
7:50 I love little parts like this where it's like oh fuck off you know exactly what happened you MADE it happen. seemingly innocent expression of concern that's such total bullshit
13:05 "if you ever do want to know exactly what your father looked like, all you have to do is look in the mirror ~" 16:26 "hello Jon, apologies for the deception..." 17:04 "I'm not really in the mood for this, Elias... So either shoot me - [Elias shoots ]" 18:39 Elias congratulates Jon for not dying! 19:59 [Pleasant exhalation] "Hmm... That's... That's quite nice, actually. Tingly, but sort of freeing" 21:49 You just knew it? N-No Jon, this is good! It's a promising development 23:14 "Problem, Martin?"
That wasnt him being the worst. That was entirely justified and the one act of good he ever did. Fuck Leitner. Now pinning it on Jon was a bastsrd move.
I have never listened to tma but alone the voices (mostly elias voice) make me kinda wanna listen to it (I also have a feeling that i will have flaming hatred and immortal love for elias at the same time)
Oky I’ve not finished it yet I’m nearing the end of season 4 and honestly I love Elias, rather than pissing me off Per se he just made a great manipulative villain really. The ones that are starting to piss me off are Basra and Melanie for blaming John for literally everything, like at first I got it, it was a natural reaction then it keeps fucking going and I’m here hoping someone calls them out for their hypocrisy. Like poor Jon is trying his best to keep his humanity and they’re far from helping, like mate u all either would have died or be far worse if he wasn’t there and instead chose to die in season 3. They’re just getting on my nerves
This awful bastard man being like is why I typed out all of the 160 statement, and the end of episode 80 [EXTENDED SOUNDS OF BRUTAL PIPE MURDER] out with my typewriter. It was very time confusing and quite fun
From my final perch I ponder On the infinite and vast In the blindness I still wander Though my time has almost passed There are things I long to teach you In my institution's creed Lurking just beyond the corners of Our own reality
"I don't know *everything* melanie. do you know how exhausting that would be?" Heheh, you got no idea do you elias. you think you're just gonna be a wandering god like jon. for once you truly have no clue.
Elias is such an evil bastard but you cant deny his charisma and how he Hello Jon, apologies for the deception, but I wanted to make sure you started reading, so I thought it best not to announce myself. I'm assuming you're alone; you always did prefer to read your statements in private. I wouldn't try to stop reading; there's every likelihood you'll just hurt yourself. So just listen. Now, shall we turn the page and try again?
elias's homophobia is rivalled only by that one vase that vanished the antique dealer's husband
He's gay AND homophobic!
@@Lightning-ik3so Elias Bouchard really proved that they do exist, huh.
@@Lightning-ik3so Elias said "gay rights but only for me"
@@Lightning-ik3so he's pansexual... but that's splitting hairs.
is he homophobic? i think i missed this
Elias really said gay rights but only for me
Gay pride? More like Gay greed if ya know wh-
indeed he did...0
This comment has haunted me ever since I saw it, you’re right bestie he really did say that 😂😂😂
unironically.... i think this is one of my favorite descriptions/comments on elias ive read tysm
James Somerton Moment
I like how his accent gets subtlety more fancy and villainous as the story goes on, reflecting how he’s slightly reverting towards his original Georgian Era accent as his identity is revealed more and more
The editing of having Jon say “cocky prick” then Elias immediately says “precisely” is peak quality

@A. Seed It's at 8:43 to 8:46 I think.
😂Elias you’re gonna kill me😅

BASIRA: The part where you pretend you don't spend your whole time watching us.
ELIAS: ...Sometimes I'm eating.
I mean let's be honest that's a lie too. No way Elias still has to eat
He probably just pretends so Peter can be his sugar daddy
@@aswarmofcrabs he has a body to maintain…he has to do the four things every animal does otherwise the body stops workout so great
I had to pause for like, 10 minutes cause I couldn't stop cackling over this.
@@aswarmofcrabs he later refers to Jon’s extracting statements from unwitting people as “eating.” So by that analogy he’s sometimes using his scrying to spread just random terror and paranoia.
It's so funny that all actual Elias did wrong is - smoke weed and apply for a wrong job . Jona really loves his possession bulshit
The fact that Elias says nearly the same things when confronting Martin and Melanie (“It’s not your fault, it’s just bad luck” “so this is, what, a cry for attention?”) really leads me to believe that he’s done this for so many angy archive staff that he has it down to a spreadsheet
Probably, honestly. Mans dealt with a lot of shit.

Yep. Same
I hate him, yet I simp for him. It's a vicious cycle. 🤣
I love how much I hate him
Melanie’s sheer despair at 1:15 hurts so much. That was the first time I hated Elias.
i hated him too!! (my sexual awakening)
@@poppyseedbagelllReal
Is it bad that it made me love him more?
@@WilSpencersHighkey felt the same. I was kinda tired of her shit by then as well.
@bluewolf619125 as much as i disliked melanie by that point, BOY DID I HAVE A VISCERAL HATRED FOR ELIAS
i love the asmr of elias beating an elderly man to death in a brutal pipe murder :)
Elias being a stinky bastard man for 27 minutes and 51 seconds.
7:50 I love little parts like this where it's like oh fuck off you know exactly what happened you MADE it happen. seemingly innocent expression of concern that's such total bullshit
"May I speak to your chief inspector" has real "I want to speak to your manager" Karen vibes.
He is the og Karen

my abhorred beloved. love of my life. worst man ive ever met. my reason to go on.
You're so real for this comment lmao
Peter lukas?
i think about the way he says "collateral" at least 2x a day 12:19
Elias is SUCH a great antagonist.
19:57 for all the simps
I owe you my life/j
I hate that I know exactly what this is going to be
this clip makes me feel like i can shoot lightning from my fingertips he’s so fine
God you're fueling my hatred for him even more. /jk
Hes so vile... Absolutely *_devastated_* Ben Meredith isn't voicing "Augustus" for Magnus Protocol.
17:04 “bruh”
Lmao
He is the worst, yet he's great 😂
Also....
*Extended sounds of brutal pipe murder*
That wasnt him being the worst. That was entirely justified and the one act of good he ever did. Fuck Leitner.
Now pinning it on Jon was a bastsrd move.
The fact that this is longer than an episode I-
Oh my God I just noticed that bahahaha
Sounds of brutal pipe murder at 9:40
This is just every time Elias shows up… which definitely tracks
elias exists? in MY the magnus archives podcast?
More likely than you think *wink*
i love him so much. my little problematic fave. bastard man
the dislikes are elias on four different accounts, one of them is Peter’s account
Listened to this while working out to fuel myself with anger at elias bouchard
I don’t know why I chose to listen to this knowing what he did to Melanie
Ok I have to stop at daisy I can’t get to Martin goodbyw
A gay I do NOT respect
why am i listening to this im making myself mad my goddddd
god help me for loving him
Every now and then I have to re-evaluate myself and my decision to take the name Elias as my own.
gosh what a bastard; i love him.
Elias has truly rancid vibes
Listens to this like its erotic asmr
o
jail rn???
so true
real
You're so real for this tbh
He may be my favourite little bastard man but god help him if we ever met
19:53 just a personal bookmark ;)
I have never listened to tma but alone the voices (mostly elias voice) make me kinda wanna listen to it
(I also have a feeling that i will have flaming hatred and immortal love for elias at the same time)
Yeah, you probably will. But if you're willing to die laughing and die sobbing on the floor screamaing be my guest, listen.
So. Have you started tma yet?👀

Elias is my favorite for nothing else other than voice kink
17:45 one of Tim's greatest moments
Any Tim moment is a great moment. Like when he pulled a Kool Aid man and broke the door down when the worms attacked.

@@dontasklongstoryoh did you put it on tumblr too? I think I saw a post like this
@Sprink1809 probably lolol crazy that ppl have seen it lol
Re listening to Elias bits really is suffering, “jon puts on a good show” mannnn f*** youu 😂😂😂
i love it when men are evil. i’m putting him in my pocket
It's my comfort character I get to pick the music :(
This should be called, "Elias Bouchard Being Absolutely the Best"
It should!
it SHOULD
Elias DOUCHEard!
I love the idea that ben may have had to go from playing in a humour podcast to playong the evil boss.
And this is why I simp for him respectfully. 💜
Love how is is almost half an hour long
i may not have finished tma yet however i will always love elias i know he's evil and a stinky man but im quite literally in love with him its insane
On season 3. This man is just a monster.
God I fucking love this old bastard.
AHHH I can't listen past 12:50 if I haven't started season 4. Spoilers.
Elias is peak girlboss
most replayed is TELLING. REPENT FOR YOUR SINS
ah yes. a video of all the reasons i simp for elias bouchard
Real. Realest comment.
I'm in love with elias. keep up the good work
I only like him because he’s voiced by Ben merideth who is SUCH A GOOD ACTOR. But I absolutely despise the character
hes hot tho
not good enough, still guilty
@@glumbortango7182 Which arguably makes him more hot
@@ajaxbird2348 that’s why everybody likes Micheal
so true
that's what im saying!!
This makes me want to discuss terrific methods of torcher
I hate Elias’s character, somehow I can’t help loving his voice though.
This man called the police on himself!
Did you mean: the Magnus archives series 1-5
I thought this was just gonna be something to laugh at and then Melanie showed up and yo I'm crying what the hell. why did he do that to herr :((
im on a deadline and sooo sleepy but i hate this man so much it keeps me wide awake
What the fuck. Holy shit. Damn Elias.
Anyone else really into Elias' voice?
*awkward silence*
Just me? Ah. :)
Nope, I'm into him too.
🤚🤚
I may or may not have audibly murmured "Daddy" under my breath hearing his dulcet voice.
hey why is the most replayed part of the video the part where he sensually sighs after getting compelled. you're all going to super hell
Ew Elias
He a very gross man
Disgusting little man
and you just *know* he smells like crappy expensive perfume
Hskdkdjkddj I thought ew stood for Elias warning so you were like “(Elias warning) Elias.”
How could you say so much with so little words ? And something that we were all thinking with that !
I love to hate him, but the scene where he kills Jurgen always makes me so sad bc of how pleading Jurgen is. I hate it, and not in the fun way. 😖
From my final perch I ponder
On the infinite and vast
In the blindness I still wander
Though my time has almost passed
There are things I long to teach you
In my institution's creed
Lurking just beyond the corners of

Heheh, you got no idea do you elias. you think you're just gonna be a wandering god like jon. for once you truly have no clue.
as a gerry kaey kinnie and therefore a certified jurgen leitner hater, im a big fan of brutal pipe murder[tm]
God I fucking love him so much
he’s kinda………..
hey op you misspelled best
I could listen to Elias read the phonebook I don't care I just need more of his VOICE
