the one thing I liked the most about this animatic is how Antinous is holding the axe in his hands, belittling the challange Penelope had made and making fun of it. he doesn't care if someone can win it he will do what he wants anyway as he's that Immoral and unethical man
Ahhhh, when you had Antinous holding one of the axes the whole time, and then at the end Odysseus shot him through all of the axes INCLUDING the one he was holding - brilliant!!
I love your Antinous design because it’s one of the few where he looks like a young man. The wolf imagery was also a very good way of portraying the ambush on Telemachus.
I low key love that Antinous chose to imagine the axe as his primary weapon to commit his crimes. Gives this extra flavor of "payback", since he want's to use the item provided for the challenge, which was meant to stop them in their tracks, to destroy everything Penelope holds dear. Plus it was really cool that Odysseus managed to shoot him through all the axes, including the one that Antinous was holding and flailing around!
Man we should call you Apollo bc you really never miss!! Lol-ing at how stupid the suitors look trying to string the bow lol That transition from Telemachus' portrait to that sword sweep was so smooth and sick!! The foreshadowing was awesome, from Odysseus picking up the bow at the beginning to the wine dripping onto Antinuous’ foot and from his mouth, foreshadowing his doom. (Also lol, everytime I’m reminded of the fact that Odysseus was in fact showing off the royal jewels as he was slaughtering the suitors makes me laugh each time) Thanks for another truly EPIC animatic (pun intended :3 )
I was about to be like 'Oh I guess he only shoots through eleven in this one, fair enough it's still a heck of a challenge' but then you had Antinous hold the axe in the right position you absolute mad-lad. That was so good!
WE'RE GOING CRAZY WITH THE CAMERA MOVEMENTS 🗣🔥🔥🔥 I love how Antinous holds one of the axes of the competition that at the end is transpassed by an arrow as the rest of them 👌❤
2:37 I love this part of the "camera" spinning so, so much it's exactly what I imagine when I listen to the song as his voice gets fuller & deeper. Amazing animation :)
I _adore_ how smooth all the scene transitions were in this 😍😍 And I especially love that you did the "shoot through the axes" bit with the 12th axe in Antinuous' hand as a visual bullseye he ends up holding up to his neck 🤩
The use of colors in this? Amazing. The fluid motion? Beautiful. The wolf imagery? The foreshadowing? Love it! Antinous comes off as so confident and smug here, like he goes from "I can't do this, therefore it's stupid, screw this bow" to smirking as he pulls off everything flawlessly in his imagination. Which is a feeling I haven't gotten from other animatics in the same way? Like you get this sense that he sees himself as the big bad wolf, stalking his prey and taking whatever he wants with ease. Meanwhile, he's creating the symbols of his doom constantly. Ugh its so good!
Great imagery throughout the whole animatic! I loved it. Showing Odysseus’ face after he shoot through the axes was 10/10 you can feel the absolute rage.
Other than how beautiful the animatic is, I just wanted to talk about how flawless and smooth the animation is and the transitions are so good,,, Crashite your absolutely improving animatic by animatic... keep up the hard work it's so beautiful 🤍🤍
CRAHSITE IS ALIVE AND BACK WITH ANOTHER MASTERPIECE •I also like the transition of Antinous being almost stoic in the beginning and gradually having that sick sadistic look
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FROM YOU WOOOO. Yout Telemachus, Penelope and Antinous design is so good wow. THE TRANSITIONS ARE SO FREAKING SICK BTW WHATTT???! The metaphors and also visuals are perfect and unsettling. ALSO ODY BEING HORRIFIED FOR THAT BRIEF SECOND THE DRINKS LOOKING LIKE BLOOD, THEN THE SIX AXES SHOWING UP, LINING PERFECTLY AS ODY TAKES HIS SHOT WOW. AND ANTINOUS BODY FALLING DOWN AND ODY BEING REVEALED WAS BADASS, 10/10. I LOVE THIS SM, ANIMATION IS SO SMOOTH TOO RAHH
Wow!! Such fluid animation and colours. ⭐️⭐️I like there was reference of Big Wolf and Little Wolf. And Ody shooting though the arrows. He really had had enough!
WHAT A GOOD ANIMATIC OH MY GOD, this song is my favorite from the Ithaca Saga and ur animatic really gives it a ton of emotion, the fact that Antinous plays around with one of the axes and Odysseus SHOOTS HIS ARROW TOWARDS IT it's very clever
This not only has Odysseus barely shown so you can try to put it together yourself but also has the shot I imagined where the camera zooms through the holes in the axes backwards from Antinous only to later have the arrow going through the axes back to him. Nearly perfect for what I've been wanting in a Hold Them Down animatic! You did an amazing job!
I'm repulsed by this mainly because of how good it is? I'm OBSESSED, this was amazing and I absolutely love your transitions and the way you draw and portray the...not nice word Antinuous.
Not only did you do the 12 axes, but you did it in a way that honestly makes it even more impressive AND included the Monster eyes at the very end. 12/10 🎉
Actually picking up the axe and using them in the speech and plans was a great idea, and the cool menacing design you gave the axes really helps with that
YESSSS, SECOND ANIMATIC I FIND WHERE ODY LINES UP ANTINOUS NECK WITH THE SHIT THROUGH THE 12 AXES And having him hold it showing how she doesn't respect the challenge. Aaagh beautiful
This was absolutely amazing, from the wolf imagery to the shot through the axes. I would love to see how you portray the final boss fight that is Odysseus
AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! Why do there have to be SOOOO MANY amazing animations of this song! Now I have to re-evaluate which one is the best AGAIN! Cuz this might just top some of the other ones that I have seen, which are insanely good! Amazing work Crashite!
THIS IS SO INSANE OH MY GODD. the fluidity of the animation, the transitions, the use of colors, and even the wolf imagery that follows Antinous in this specific animatic (i dont think ive seen that done before??) this is literally such a good animatic to use for people just getting into epic i love it

[Sees Antinous' neck framed through the axes]
"Foreshadowing is a literary device where-"
Lmao that's actually so funny 😂
The fact Ody shot through 11 axes then through the twelth axe Antinous was holding was amazing
IKR!! Makes it extra cool :0 !!
It is like Antinous was "literally" holding his fate!! 🫢
I love it!!
It's my favourite take on that shot
I love how Antinous immediately starts complaining right after he fails to string the bow, like the man baby he is
hes a big baby....
If I remember correctly he didn't even try to string it
Bro's a big baby, bro waits 10+ years for Penelope only to die when he rebels, lol. Talk about a horrible life. 😂
2:29
Going from Penelope’s hair to Odysseus stringing the bow is actually really clever
Omg thank you for saying this. Was struggling to imagine what that was as I was still thinking it had to do something with Penelope
Hold Them Down animatics that shows Ody shooting the suitor through the 12 axes will always be S-tier
It's so poetic I love it!!
0:20 "where is the man who can string this bow" as it shows Odysseus's raft on Ithaca's shore
Yeah that was such a great detail
I didn’t even notice that!
The suitors using the very axes preventing them to access the throne to end the boy who's the other obstacle??? THIS IS SICK OMG
2:13 penelope looks so flabbergasted. Not even scared, but like "girl what r u doing" kinda face
she’s like “bRO why are you planning this RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME”
@L-ghtlessSky "DUMMY ACTING LIKE I CAN'T HEAR YOU SCREAMING ABT UR PLAN STUPID AHH" - penelope
the one thing I liked the most about this animatic is how Antinous is holding the axe in his hands, belittling the challange Penelope had made and making fun of it. he doesn't care if someone can win it he will do what he wants anyway as he's that Immoral and unethical man
WHEN HE LICKED HIS LIPS I PHYSICALLY RECOILED..
SAME like “brother ewh!”
Ikr I legit said "Eww!" out loud when I saw that
1:44 I love how you used the wolf reference to show that he’s “hunting” Telemachus!!!
Ahhhh, when you had Antinous holding one of the axes the whole time, and then at the end Odysseus shot him through all of the axes INCLUDING the one he was holding - brilliant!!
I love your Antinous design because it’s one of the few where he looks like a young man. The wolf imagery was also a very good way of portraying the ambush on Telemachus.
WAIT! THE COLORS! THE MOVEMENTS! THIS IS SICK!!
1:02 subtle foreshadowing.
I low key love that Antinous chose to imagine the axe as his primary weapon to commit his crimes. Gives this extra flavor of "payback", since he want's to use the item provided for the challenge, which was meant to stop them in their tracks, to destroy everything Penelope holds dear.
Plus it was really cool that Odysseus managed to shoot him through all the axes, including the one that Antinous was holding and flailing around!
Not only through the axes that have been lined up but the one he's holding as well?? That's so coooollllll. ALSO ODY IN PONYTAIL AWWWWWHHHHHHHH
Man we should call you Apollo bc you really never miss!!
Lol-ing at how stupid the suitors look trying to string the bow lol
That transition from Telemachus' portrait to that sword sweep was so smooth and sick!!
The foreshadowing was awesome, from Odysseus picking up the bow at the beginning to the wine dripping onto Antinuous’ foot and from his mouth, foreshadowing his doom.
(Also lol, everytime I’m reminded of the fact that Odysseus was in fact showing off the royal jewels as he was slaughtering the suitors makes me laugh each time)
Thanks for another truly EPIC animatic (pun intended :3 )
ROYAL jewels meant literally
Honestly the fact he was naked the entire time both makes it funnier and scarier to me.
This is such a good animatic
2:57 The arrow going through the axes and the axe in his hand is absolute perfection 👌
2:51 "Keep your heads down, he's aiming for the torches!""
I was about to be like 'Oh I guess he only shoots through eleven in this one, fair enough it's still a heck of a challenge' but then you had Antinous hold the axe in the right position you absolute mad-lad. That was so good!
All of the wolf symbolism is so cool and really well thought out. I think this is my new favorite EPIC animatic, this is incredible.
2:22 fact that will ruin your day! When Penelope’s violin plays when they are holding her down it’s suppose to be her screaming
😨
How do y’all find out stuff like that?
Long have I searched for the perfect Hold them Down animatic. You.... You've made the top 5.
The competition is STACKED lemme tell ya.
WE'RE GOING CRAZY WITH THE CAMERA MOVEMENTS 🗣🔥🔥🔥
I love how Antinous holds one of the axes of the competition that at the end is transpassed by an arrow as the rest of them 👌❤
1:45 the visuals give such an uneasy feeling, that's amazing 👏
2:26 the deflowering 😢
2:37 I love this part of the "camera" spinning so, so much it's exactly what I imagine when I listen to the song as his voice gets fuller & deeper. Amazing animation :)
I _adore_ how smooth all the scene transitions were in this 😍😍

HE SHOT THROUGH ALL THE AXES, HELL YEAH!!
I SQUEALED WHEN TELEMACHUS APPEARED
SO AMAZING!! the colours and shadows on the eyes! Antinuos holding the final axe! And Odysseus with his hair up🤩
Great imagery throughout the whole animatic! I loved it.
Showing Odysseus’ face after he shoot through the axes was 10/10 you can feel the absolute rage.
Antinous holding the last axe in his hand was just a sublime touch.
HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO COOL!
Is not one going to talk about the little wolf references and how smooth the 360 and just over all the whole animation was!
Other than how beautiful the animatic is, I just wanted to talk about how flawless and smooth the animation is and the transitions are so good,,, Crashite your absolutely improving animatic by animatic... keep up the hard work it's so beautiful 🤍🤍

This can be my new favorite Hold Them Down animatic.
YAY YOU DID THE THING WHERE ODY SHOOTS THROUGH THE AXES!!
EVEN THE ONE ANTINOUS WAS HOLDING!
My face:😨🥺
Once again this is amazing I love how you used the wolves and the flower as not just symbolic but also maybe censoring ❤
OmGOSH. The way he still shot through the 12th one in his hand?+?!?! MASTERPIECE
Your transitions were so cool!!! I loved the part with the picture of Telemachus @0:46
THIS ANIMATIC WAS PEAK. AMAZING. BEAUTIFUL. EPIC. THERE ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE IT.
Ouuuuh the animation was smooooth and the transitions toooo and it was overall very clean and smooth
Thank for being (until now) the only to make the animatic that DOES NOT SHOW Odysseus clearly until the last moment!!!
The wolf shots with Telemachus are so cool!
This is legitimately one of the best animatics I've seen for the entire Ithica saga!
Wow!! Such fluid animation and colours. ⭐️⭐️I like there was reference of Big Wolf and Little Wolf. And Ody shooting though the arrows. He really had had enough!
WHAT A GOOD ANIMATIC OH MY GOD, this song is my favorite from the Ithaca Saga and ur animatic really gives it a ton of emotion, the fact that Antinous plays around with one of the axes and Odysseus SHOOTS HIS ARROW TOWARDS IT it's very clever
AJSXJAKNDS I LOVE THIS!!! THE COLOURS AND EVERYTHING AAAAAAAAAH!!!
Omg Odysseus shooting the arrow through the axes is such a cinematic masterpiece i love that sm
Honestly, the Hold 'Em Down animatics I've seen so far have all been peak; this one included.
the camera work in this goes so hard
I hate how much I like this Song. It’s so evil. But so beautifully sung 😭😭, you did this amazingly. Each shot was amazing.
This not only has Odysseus barely shown so you can try to put it together yourself but also has the shot I imagined where the camera zooms through the holes in the axes backwards from Antinous only to later have the arrow going through the axes back to him. Nearly perfect for what I've been wanting in a Hold Them Down animatic! You did an amazing job!
I LOVE how you had that frame where we see Antinous' neck through the twelve axes because Ody is going to shoot him through the neck it's just 🤌🤌
finally someone who remember Antinoos is only 25, this apparence is a lot more realistic
One of my favorite animatics of the song so far!! It's so well made and the transitions are so clean!!
ALL IF THE TRANSITIONS ARE SO AMAZING OMG THE THOUFHT THAT'S BEEN PUT IN ALL OF THEM AAAA
The dog and wolf imagery!!!!! Much to love here but that takes the cake in my book 🤩 Superb ending as well~
I'm repulsed by this mainly because of how good it is? I'm OBSESSED, this was amazing and I absolutely love your transitions and the way you draw and portray the...not nice word Antinuous.
Not only did you do the 12 axes, but you did it in a way that honestly makes it even more impressive AND included the Monster eyes at the very end. 12/10 🎉
I was BEGGING Ody to shoot through the axe Ant was holding, this is a 30/10. I love it.
THE THWELTH AXE IN HIS HAND. Ugh, so good. I like this!
Nice touch on the last axe being in front of his neck
Ok no wait. I'M IN LOVE WITH THE FLUID OF THE ANIMATION AND ANTINOUS. I MEAN your animation???? Chef kiss.
Actually picking up the axe and using them in the speech and plans was a great idea, and the cool menacing design you gave the axes really helps with that
I’m LOVING all of the subtle details & imagery in this animatic. Amazing job!!
YOOOO i love that the arrow goes through the ax in his hand too 🔥🔥🔥🔥
YOU AATEEEEE CRASHITE THIS ANIMATIC IS SO SMOOTH AND FLUID!!!!! SO MANY CAMERA MOVEMENTS AND TRANSITIONS YOUVE IMPROVED A LOT 😭😭😭😭
add this one to every Epic animatic playlist. actually makes the axe shot
Haven't seen such a fluid animatic in a while, and for my favorite villain song EPIC no less! Very good!
Bro said this was an Animatic 🙄😒
AND GAVE US A WHOLE ASSSS ANIMATION INSTEAD!!! BRO THIS IS SMOOTH WTH?!!! ✨️✨️✨️✨️
Odysseus: "No, please. Continue."
Loved the dog eats wolf part
YESSSS, SECOND ANIMATIC I FIND WHERE ODY LINES UP ANTINOUS NECK WITH THE SHIT THROUGH THE 12 AXES
And having him hold it showing how she doesn't respect the challenge. Aaagh beautiful
This is actually EVERYTHING to me like what gorgeous im gomna 💥💥💥
I will be wait "Ruthlessness" , "Thunder bringer", "Warrior of the mind" and "My goodbye"
This was absolutely amazing, from the wolf imagery to the shot through the axes. I would love to see how you portray the final boss fight that is Odysseus
D4mn, your animation is so sick, great job dude 🙏. I loved his sadic face, made me fear him
Love it! The animations are amazing!
The shot is pure perfection
AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! Why do there have to be SOOOO MANY amazing animations of this song! Now I have to re-evaluate which one is the best AGAIN! Cuz this might just top some of the other ones that I have seen, which are insanely good! Amazing work Crashite!
I love how Ody shot the arrow through the 12 axes :)
OOOOO That ending was so cool!!! 12 axes!!! Beautiful work, love your style!
NEVER thought for Antinous to be HOLDING the last axe! That's diabolical, I love it!
Dude this is so good! The movements are so clean and smooth, the colors pop, and you my friend have an eye for cinematography!
Through the axe he was holding? Beautiful shot
Talk about going out on a high note
YOOO THIS IS AMAZING
I LOVE YOUR ANIMATICS SM
2:57 is the Money Shot and you pulled it off so well a+++
Amazing.just.amazing.the attention to detail...👌
THIS IS SO INSANE OH MY GODD. the fluidity of the animation, the transitions, the use of colors, and even the wolf imagery that follows Antinous in this specific animatic (i dont think ive seen that done before??) this is literally such a good animatic to use for people just getting into epic i love it
The wolf imagery looks so cool!
Omg this is one of my fav hold them down animation so far!
"What about the other old king?"
"Freaky with him too"
THE VISUALS???? OMG THIS IS LITERALLY SO GOOD. This might be my favorite hold them down animatic yet (◍•ᴗ•◍)
We've been missing you, Crashite! Thank you for all of your magnificent animating efforts, I'm always ecstatic to see your work.
omg this was so well done??? the animation is so clean!!! the imagery is amazing too!! i love odysseus shooting tru the axes at the end
