Well if you say so
this is already super cools

u kinda had to read between the lines to understand The Chosen One’s mindset change when it came to cause destruction all over the internet, but this episode RLLY makes it clear that The Chosen One kinda matured faster than The Dark Lord.
The Chosen One rlly is a mirrored image of Alan. Alan started off as this reckless kid who just tortured his stick figures but he eventually matured and realized thats not cool nor morally okay. this mirrors The Chosen One’s actions since he started off just causing chaos all over the internet, but then he started to reflect on his actions and matured. this episode explicitly explains how he came to this new mindset. its so cute honestly
Honestly this is a really solid theory, especially since TCO was made right after Victim. Like how TCO was evil alongside TDL but then realised that he doesn’t really need to cause destruction
I always theorised that it was because TDL’s purpose was to seek destruction. By joining TCO who had once been imprisoned by Alan, he had a partner to help him. On the other hand, TCO wasn’t really given a purpose. Alan’s intentions in creating him are vague but it’s theorised that he was made to be a replacement for victim. His name, ‘The Chosen One’ doesn’t indicate a ‘good’ or ‘bad’ side, he is simply the one who had been granted abilities no average stickman would have.
Being inprisoned by Alan is probably what made him cause so much destruction
@@av3_ren The description of Animator vs Animation 2 begins with "The animator, looking for a challenge, decides to make the stick figure harder to beat." so that basically confirms that TCO was indeed meant to be a replacement victim (if the story hasn't changed over the years of course)
if only TDL had the chance to mature like him 😔
like,,,, looking at him here, you can still notice how childish Dark acts, the enthusiasm, almost like a way too energetic kid whilst TCO understands, starting out as destructive but taking the time to play the game properly, understand building and enjoy the scenery, whilst Dark goes around the world, destroying things, entering the nether and fighting all the hostile mobs he could see.
Giving us more of what his character is like.
I don't think it's a matter of TDL not maturing as fast.
I think TCO is discovering his true nature while TDL is already true to themselves and is simply a destructive maniac who will never try or want to change.
I like that the chosen one didnt feel that mad when the dark lord destroyed his house. Because he knew destruction was the only thing his friend wanted to do and that he can always rebuild, he is free to do it. It reminds me how 2b2t players know their bases are going to get griefed, but they keep building them anyways.
Made me realize that tdl would thrive in 2b2t

TDL: “Rip and tear until it is done”
This made me remember something beautiful
Do I sense a They’re Sticks, Probably reference?
TCO: Hey check this out, I made a house.
TDL: Bro, this game is made for babies.
TCO: Oh…yeah. Guess your right?
*TDL destroys house.*
TCO: Heh, yeah that house wasn’t that fun to make. 🥲
It was a perfect example of toxic relationship
The Dark Lord
I like how the Chosen One is willing to sacrifice his stuff for his only friend The Dark Lord. It makes him feel sorta human in a way, that he’s willing to give up things to keep that friendship, even if he really shouldn’t later down the track.
3:13 this eating scene is underrated. I love how it accurately depicts TCO's mouth in AvA episode 2 aka Alan's first fight with TCO where he eats some of the icons, it shows him having horizontal mouth unlike the newer stick figures with imaginary mouth at the center
and herobrine in the background

Crocodile Dundee Lord
had that feeling of when your in a game like blade and sorcery, and some mage comes up to you in sandbox mode and starts going all sparkly fingers so you gotta pull out the lightning bolt and put them in their place
This animation is incredible, it shows that unlike TDL, TCO was not looking for violence, all he wanted was to get revenge on Alan for making him suffer for so long, then he believed that he was evil and wanted to continue making others suffer along with TDL, until he came to Minecraft and realized that he was genuinely free of Alan, and that therefore he could truly relax, which would be the beginning of him starting to see the good side of things and finally deciding to put a stop to TDL, who was genuinely evil because he enjoyed being so regardless of who he hurt.
Well also TDL was created solely to destroy TCO so it makes sense that when they were friends he kept destroying everything.
TCO wasn't suffering for that long victim suffeded
I mean TDL's name is literally The Dark Lord and his life goal Alan gave him was only killing TCO and that's it.
@@Fadora_yeep Victim was only tortured for like 7 months TCO was forced to be alans slave for 3 years
@@Fadora_yeep victim was relentlessly tortured for around 8 months, maybe a year at most, while chosen was enslaved for over 3 years- but i wouldnt say the two are comparable given that torture and slavery are quite different
Chosen definitely suffered for longer though
3:20 Holy Shid, the stacking trees on top of each other is so nostalgic for me. Back when I first got minecraft, me and my bigger brother would play on this world where we lived together in a house and on top of the house we had a ‘MEGA TREE’ as we called it where we had trees on top of trees on the roof. We put dirt on the top of grown trees and then put saplings on that dirt until we reached build height limit. Good old days.
Yeah, i also did that as a Kid, thats a core memory right there
Bro, thanks for idea what to do in minecraft! 😉
I love building and exploring, so it'll be fun!
SAME it qas so nostalgic seeing that. Glad i wasn't the only one who did this
@@ДіМаАнNp ^_^
Dude I was ganna comment that exact same thing
2:50 It would have been a funny animation moment if The Chosen One cut the trees in the background by accident 😁😁😊😊
this short's honestly a great glimpse at the difference between The Dark Lord and The Chosen One's personalities and even offers an explanation as to why they eventually came to disagree, TDL genuinely enjoys violence, flourishing in an environment where he can fight and destroy and not giving a single thought to the people he hurts, even when those people are supposed to be his friends (which we see with him destroying TCO's first house)
TCO meanwhile is much more interested in sitting back, relaxing, taking in the sights and, much like his successor, creating things. The moment he's away from TDL for more than a few seconds he slows down and starts to experiment with minecraft's mechanics, learning, making mistakes but ultimately having fun. It's no wonder that he came to disagree with TDL when he was so obviously merely following his lead this entire time, to the point of letting TDL's desires take priority over his own (again, with TDL destroying his first house, god that single moment tells us so much about these two)
overall, a fun yet short (heh) look at this duo.
*edit because a lot of people talking about it*
You can pretty clearly see Dark Lord pressuring Chosen One to let him destroy their house, when he steps away he does not do so happily, but with uncertainty, this part of their dynamic is not new, we saw it during the flashback too with TCO reaching towards TDL wanting him to stop attacking someone and TDL not listening.
. . . also did anyone else see the cow drop "cooked beef" at 0:42? it's nice attention to detail that it's cooked because the cow was killed by fire, but also an unfortunate error since cows didnt drop meat back in beta, the "cooked beef" texture was instead cooked porkchop
Its even shown by what they do kill on their own
TDL kills a cow
TCO kills zombies and skeletons
Together they then kill sheep
cooked porkchop did kinda look like the cooked steak before the meats were separated into types though, its raw texture was like the porkchop's and its cooked one was beef's
@theoriginal____starwalker correct, the beta cooked porkchop texture is the 1.0-1.13 cooked steak texture
the error is that it did not drop from cows, it dropped from pigs, because it was pork, not beef
I think tco let tdl destroy the house though 1:33
Nah... bro got to the dramatic story telling reveal before I did
3:44 They both look relaxed in their "own way"
Yea they do XD
Frr
TCO relax after achieve the inner peace he truly needed
TDL relax after commited genocide
TDL having a healthy output for all of that childlike rage and desire for destruction and explosions.
@MC_CN It's hard to think that TCO and TDL were basically international terrorist at one point
1:10 I love the detail that since this is Minecraft 2011, it is the old textures from WAY back when it WAS 2011.
the textures bring back the og AvM back in 2015
sadly I think they missed some, as all of the logs use modern textures, still love that detail though

I kinda feel bad a little for the Chosen One who got his house destroyed, he didn’t even get mad because the Dark Lord was his friend but I think he enjoyed the Minecraft beta world before leaving and even carried an item with him to go.
It’s cool seeing that just 5 minutes away from TDL’s influence, TCO actually found peace and tranquility in Minecraft, wanting to build and create, rather than destroy
Ya 1st time for home finding peace
Honestly, i think cho would enjoy just living in minecraft, rather than the outernet area where Dark was. Seems a lot more peaceful for them here.♡
I love that little laugh(?) that TDL does when he encounters the ghasts and realises they're hostile towards him. It shows how much he enjoys even just the possibility of causing havoc, and in this instance he's basically given the perfect excuse since the Nether is ripe with enemies for him!
Speaking of, that mirror of them flying across the surface of Lava (TDL) and Water (TCO) was such a nice detail! They fly in opposite directions yet perform the exact same pose, and it's kinda cute how TCO ends up creating lines of cobblestone due to his flames touching the water!
True!! Also yeah that little chuckle was both manic and disturbing to me, he's just so happy to have an _excuse_
"Oh you wanna kill me? Good."
It shows the difference in maturity and just overall attitude of them both, the second TCO had a moment to relax and enjoy true freedom, he learned to appreciate life and creation.
"When you realize how hard it is to build something, you learn how painful it is to destroy it"
i feel it's more just a joyous convulsion, like when the stick gang swings their arms up and down, but more raw and undomesticated.

"When you realize how hard it is to build something, you realize how painful it is to destroy it"
FOR REAL
THAT QUOTE FITS SO WELL FOR CHO
YOU'RE A GENIUS
@@scarlett-parker not my quote XD, someone else wrote in the replies
The Nether mirrors TDL's destructive code, while the Overworld embodies TDL's creative code. One is static, the other is dynamic. TCO had picked up Minecraft items, which altered his coding.
TDL didn't have that same chance, plus TCO enabled TDL to destroy his house, which only reinforced TDL's programming. Both were kind of bad for each other. If TDL had spent any longer in the Nether, he might have discovered the same Minecraft physics TCO did.
I loved that TCO was in a peaceful place when the only things that would attack him were crepers or zombies and skeletons in the shadow while TDL ended up in the Nether, an easy place to die but for him it was just an endless battle arena and they both had fun somehow
That could be came flashback that's why Dark Lord wants more chaos destruction but Chosen One it's more chilling more than Dark Lord AvM shorts
In 2:35 - TDL is sliding his hand against the lava whilst on 3:10 - TCO is sliding his hand against the water while planting cobblestone blocks. This portrays their personalities, TCO has realized the good in the world and enjoys it the change while TDL destroys everything he comes across because it gives him entertainment.
2:03 I like the fact that the dark lord was able to shake off the lava with ease without being dealt damage, shows his superhuman characteristicts compared to the other stickmen pretty well
I assume that it's because He haven't absorb any item yet so survival mode haven't activated in him yet
I saw that because The Chosen One take a fall damage despite used to Jump from much higher place
I think it's just because he has pyrokinesis powers (he can control fire)
Doesn’t TCO also have pyrokinesis?
He's not been affected by minecraft's logic as he didn't pick up any items.
I like that TDK’s head rises up as his hand feels the lava, like the pain is something that invigorates him
1:19 The way TCO shows TDL his house happily then TDL immediately gets the "MUST DESTROY"😭 but he lets him destory it when he saw TDL upstate, bro sacrificed his lil house🥹 (i love this episode sm)
@OfficerThunderStruckUTTP lil bro ain't tuff to nobody

True natures peeked through for a minute right there ❤️🩹
I dunno why Chosen didn't just.. show him how to play?
He did actually show him but TDL is clearly the chaotic type who loves destroying and causing troubles, so seeing TDL upset because TCO told him not to destory the house probably made TCO feel bad lol@@DLxxx
I absolutely LOVE the cannon that Minecraft is the thing that helped The Chosen One realize that he and The Dark Lord were in the wrong. Like we thought it was a slow wearing down, but to know that there was instead a clear turning point is extremely satisfying. It just speaks to the potency of Minecraft's message, as well as the position that the game holds on this channel. It is such an unbelievably important game for inspiring creativity and growth, and it definitely will be for generations.
Can't say the same thing doesn't apply to real people, Minecraft players who play survival are so different from other gamers. they found something in Minecraft other games lack and other game players can't see.
Wise words from Yomikester
I dunno if I'd go that far. Minecraft helped Chosen see there was more to life than destruction and fighting, but nothing suggests he just flat out thinks they were wrong.
The Chosen One thought his only outlet in life was to Destroy, Minecraft is the only place that allowed him to feel what it's like to Create
@@DLxxxwell it’s more so he finds more joy in other things rather than destruction, which make sense as he way older than the dark lord so something new and calming us refreshing to him unlike the dark lord who pretty much has the mind of a one dimensional child
3:14 the og herobrine appearance cameo is crazyyy
Yeah crazy and I didn't see he was up
Woah! Nice catch.
Love it
i didnt even saw it coz it so blurry
I didn't even see that
It's so simple, and yet it fits so well with what else you've done. A moment where TCO gets the sense that he could do something with his life other than destroy.
I like how here, we can see when TCO’s intentions really change and he realizes what it’s like to build, create, and harmonize with the world instead of destroying it. It’s a cool look into his past to see why he decided to change.
Here's a human to help remove the bots.
The most interesting thing is that TCO felt HOW IT - when someone destroyes your creations. It was a first step to change.

WHAT
I like the mirroring parallel, TDL sliding across the lava, and TCO sliding across the water. I love the detail and the callbacks!
Nether mirrors TDL's destructive code, he keeps descending, Overworld is a glimpse into TCO's desire to be more than a weapon.
I think TDL falling into the Nether is a metaphor for TDL's descent into madness, going the opposite direction of TCO. While TCO is already developing self-awareness.
TDL is what TCO would've been if he had not been allowed to question his existence, or worse: Forgetting why he wanted to escape Alan. TDL represents static code, TCO is dynamic code.
Well that and you also gonna remember that TCO is much older than TDL (who probably has the mentality of a child) and to be fair 1:45 TDL did had moment of questioning but luck and fate had other things in store and the moment he entered the nether he made up his mind
I'm pretty sure Dark's comedically long fall was a reference to his death, rather than his descent.
In the Showdown, after he knocks Second into the cliffside, he flies away, looks back, gets hit by a rock, and ultimately blasted a million miles away. Him going into the Nether is analogous to him getting sent into the after life (ironically, the moment he starts to gain some perspective and realize there are consequences to being evil).

@@itzerinplays1 I didn't expect that 😭😭
As in: he considered living in peace, but the thought ended up hurting him?
@@itzerinplays1 well that's unexpected
That's an interesting theory, actually. And the whole Nether scene is set up so that when TDL goes through the portal and finds a world where anything and everything is out to kill him, it sets off his fight or flight instinct and tells him "Don't listen to him. Your purpose is to destroy!"
I like how TCO kind of mirrors TDL, you can see when they look at the new world, and they look at each other, put their hands on their hips- TCO acts a second later than TDL, and then when they land and TDL goes off again, TCO is a bit later. TDL doesnt care where they are, just wants to cause destruction. TCO is slowing down, theres a gradual curiosity growing inside of him to explore and experience rather than to conquer and destroy.
The lore is crazy. More flash back videos telling how TCO just wants so chill and TDL is the one who enjoys mass destruction.
Chosen One Understands the game better than Dark Lord
@@Godzill-z3o that could be true Chosen One looks chilling the game more than Dark Lord

This video is sweet, wholesome, and sad at the same time. It really shows the parallel of TCO and TDL a lot, and how TCO matured faster than TDL does, having moral disagreements with each other. Still, TCO follows TDL, because he doesn't want to loose the one friend he has.
Fun fact thier age apparently depend of when thier first vid was created so basically TCO is supposed to be way older than TDL so- yep! He's more mature and calme while TDL is more childish and playful
Mini example: 3:53
I honestly thought about how TCO never really knew peace because of Alan and going on a rampage with the Dark Lord, so when he was just in the Overworld doing regular mincraft stuff, he felt at peace for the first time in his life.

@@Juliette8-m7d Wait hang on
We've been seeing TDL a lot more lately...
...Perhaps this is a sign?
As someone who played Minecraft during the Xbox 360 days, the C418 music really hit hard. Aside from TDL's killing spree, I'm surprised at how calm this was.
When I saw the newsletter thing teasing this, I imagined the five sticks switching versions through the launcher and exploring old minecraft. This is a WAY more creative approach, and I just love how everything newly revealed about the lore always fits in and makes sense somehow.
I also like how the different personalities of each characters sort of show here, despite at the time having the same goals. TCO saw this new place and, like usual, was ready to destroy everything. But after causing destroying like always, he discovered he could also build and create, something he likely can't do otherwise. And unlike TDL, he prefers to create rather than destroy. It shows how TCO was only ever destructive because it's all he ever knew, with him having to defend himself with his powers seconds after creation. But TDL was created for one purpose, to destroy TCO. TDL's logic is to destroy everything, even if there isn't a reason, because it's what he was made for and was all he ever knew. But TCO is clearly more mature for discovering that he could do way more than what he'd been doing his whole life. TDL didn't recognize this, and this is probably the same reason the events of AVA season 2 ever happened. This is possibly the first time TCO's ever done something outside of destruction, which makes this moment special.
Sorry if I over-analyzed this little animation, I love both AvA and AvM too much to not notice these things.

Im barely into the video and I had to pause at 1:24 because it genuinely made me upset that Chosen’s first build was a Chosen-sized box.
Second’s first build was a whole house. He felt free and safe and at home.
Chosen’s felt cramped and trapped for a good while of his life and, judging how proud of his “creation” he is to show Dark, it’s all he expects.
Edit: 2:45 Yayyy he made a home! :D Am a bit sad to see he was protective of his little box at first though. Maybe this symbolizes his growth, from becoming used to his entrapment, to making his own freedom.
I know it’s probably just due to time constraints, but I do find it curious that we don’t see him go inside either build. He builds the nice house and then leaves.
Maybe its to represent that he feels like he doesn’t deserve anything nice?
It made me upset too bro, literally so sad

Yo, that was beautiful, like tco was really just enjoying himself,I like that
it would be cool if TSC reshowed minecraft to TCO, and despite him enjoying it, he would want to see the minecraft beta again, so alan would change the game version to beta and TCO would show it to TSC.
Yes! Do a new AVM with TCO and the rest of the gang
that would be cool tbf
"I miss the old Minecraft"
-TCO probably
1:28 i think here is when tco realizes how it feels when his creation is mercilessly destroyed, and has a change of heart
3:30 This scene is such a vibe. I've only had this feeling a few times in real life. Just sitting there...
it's great that the chosen one has also been to Minecraft, and it's already a canon. It would be interesting to see the chosen one in new episodes of the Minecraft animation, as he would return to Minecraft.
Loved the little detail that TCO’s amount of cobble in his inventory went down when he tossed one of the blocks in his hand.
1:34 i love how chosen let tdl destroy the little house he just build cuz he does’nt want to show him that he start not enjoying the killing and destroying :))
I have to wonder what went through TDL's head when he saw TCO creating instead of destroying.
@CrowfordHiddenprob "dude thats lame lest just destroy it"
@@miasaid8437 nah more like "the hell you doing were here to destroy not build, get that thing out of here"
@@miasaid8437 I don't even think Dark knew Chosen built it. He never really learned how the game worked (and Dark is an engineer, he'd probably LOVE building stuff).
@CrowfordHiddenI assume TCO just created something for him to destroy
I love how TCO is just chilling while TDL is going full doom slayer on the nether.
Chosen one: this is actually peaceful
Dark lord: D E S T R U C T I O N
It was a beautiful, pivotal moment in the development of both characters. When they part ways, each rediscovers themselves in Minecraft. "The Dark Lord" feeds his insatiable desire for destruction, while "The Chosen One" begins to appreciate the things around him, to build, enjoy sunsets, and even eat. I definitely loved it, especially the connection between AVA and AVM.
2:22 the dark lord as he destroys everything he sees in front of him for fun
2:42: the chosen one is the one who tries to learn the game and even plays it the right way
Deep down, the chosen one is not evil, he is just influenced and dragged by the dark lord. If the chosen one did not agree with the dark lord's decisions, the victim's wife would probably still be alive.
Nah, Mitsi would still die, since TDL's explosive fireballs were the murder weapon, something that TCO seems to lack.
Maybe things would be different if he had chosen the other path sooner and stopped TDL sooner. @@JenyaFio
@@mariustan9275 I don't really think TCO stands a chance against TDL tbf
He held up pretty well in their first fight. He was able to defeat him and then make him join his side. He also held up pretty well in their next battle, although he did lose to the dark Lord gaining new power from his wristband things, but he held up really well so I would say they are basically equals.
@pelusouwu while TDL didn't have the virus bracelet, TCO could have a good chance of winning a fight to the death. The reason TCO kept losing the fight was TDL with the bracelet and the spiders.
1:29
"Wait! Don't destroy it!"
"Ok, so what tf do I do with this big aah fireball?"
LOL
"yk what fine"
@@lyre_flame “YEAH!” *boom*

@@TheDarkLord-Offical notice how your pfp and name is…
its cool that now its canon that AVM and AVA its on same storyline, i wonder where the other videos like AVMath or AVAddiction fits on the history
2:45 “Skyblock teaches us that no matter how ridiculous the odds may seem, within us resides the power to overcome these challenges and achieve something beautiful. That one day, we’ll look back at where we started, and be amazed by how far we’ve come.”
You can’t just do that to me man 😭
( T^T) aww
Bro 😭
3:30 the detail of Chosen looking to his side as if saying “I wish Dark was here to see this” is so sweet, but I was so scared that it would cut to after the showdown 😭
Hol up you got a point here
1:46
The Dark Lord: I used to be a villain like you. Then I took flying island to the skull
To be honest I expected your next upload to be AvA 12 luckily its kinda like an AvA and AvM crossover which is kinda better cuz now we actually understand what made TCO change character compared to TDL great episode and good luck with AvA 12 we are all excited for it
3:59 TCO didn't really want to leave Minecraft 💔😭
I'm hoping he shows that cobblestone block that he kept in future episodes of AvA
@@Destoroyah2animz his cobblestone block is his memory of Minecraft, forever...
Will orange king meet TCO watch next time to find out
I think cobblestone may save him from imprisoned..
@@arrogant_person Asspull of doom
He's probably gonna use it in the future, where the remaining cobblestones save him from either falling, or TDL's attacks
2:30 Huh ghast didn't expect this temperature.. like the sun core...
And it’s weird cuz they don’t take fire damage
@@Marco-Catalano which probably makes it more terrifying that they can burn something that doesn't take fire damage
@@Marco-CatalanoYea maybe his fire is so much hotter than lava and fire in Minecraft.
But they probably just didn’t realize when animating this.
Dawg I'm Not Gonna Lie I Actually Felt Bad For The Ghast In That Moment.
@inktirrell5016Hello Queen from Deltarune
I love that this video opens up the possibility that TCO might finally show up in future AVM episodes, especially since he left his house and everything else he built there so that maybe TSC might walk into them one day
But this is 2011, is that version of that world still around since the stick figures mostly know the more recent versions
@@damonlam9145Worlds can be updated though the chunks generated will be frozen in time even with seed changes so it will look funny
la animacion es magnifica ojala que salga mas como esto mis respeto maestro por tan esplendido trabajo
Well, in a sense they both had a good time. TCO found an infinite (mostly) peaceful playground where he could do whatever he wanted, and TDL found an infinite combat arena where he could destroy as much as he wanted.
2:39 "Only thing they fear is you" -The Dark Slayer
Fits perfectly
Yes
2:39 The Dark Lord indeed...
Dark what? The name is Dark Lord
@@Crazyhracks he's not talking about TDL.
I swear, I will never get tired of seeing these two, and this video captures everything I like about both of them
3:15 THIS IS THE HEROBRINE HILL
THATS SO NOSTALGIC YOU CAN EVEN SEE HIM
It’s honestly touching how TCO learnt to connect with such an unusual environment to his normal nature and found comfort.
2:18
"You don't seem to understand, Minecraft isn't YOURS to conquer"

You don't seem to understand, This world is my to conquer
You were given more time than most...
@@mariustan9275yet i find this planet unprepered for the arrival of the VILTUM EMPIRE!
Dude this video is so relaxing from TCO's perspective, literally just enjoying his time with how peaceful Beta Minecraft is, and in a lot of ways, relatable to pretty much all of us when we first started the game. I feel like it was here when TCO was starting to show a lot of empathy with the things around him and really just be less destructive compared to where he was in the early parts of the flashback episode.
This also confirms that AVM and AVA are both happening in the same universe! Would love to see TCO or TDL show up in an AVM episode someday!
TCO 💯 coming
TDL ded
i def wanna see TCO being introduced to current day Minecraft, King Orange, and Purple
I'd love to see TDL show up at all-
My thoughts exactly for the “same universe” confirmation!
I think the confirmation happened a long time ago, in one of the shorts for mother's day we see Purple getting Minecraft flowers for their mom's grave and he passes by a poster for TCO, showing they are in the same universe.
It was already confirmed to be in the same universe in a short
I hope we will she the dark lord in future episodes
I think the peaceful nature of Minecraft is what might have convinced TCO that taking over the internet is a bad idea. It seems that TCO is enjoying doing something CONSTRUCTIVE instead of DESTRUCTIVE for once.
It taught Chosen there was value in the things he destroyed. Though their goal wasn't to "conquer the internet", they were just having fun. Chosen found another way to do that, I guess.
3:15 The Chosen One's mouth returns!!! 🗣🔥
Oh yeah, and that's also the legendary Herobrine landmark lol.
Wait, returns? So it's not the first time it appeared?
Can even see Herobrine in the background standing there. Menacingly.
@@jf_kein_k8590 He even disappears
True! That's a nice detail, especialy since he's the first villain in Animation vs Minecraft
@@NietoKTyeah in animator vs animation 3
First of all, it's a very beautiful and well-designed animation! Secondly, I've started noticing that all of Alan's creations have a creative flair. Tsc, who draws better than Alan himself, is a prime example. The victim, who quickly drew a sword in 1 Ava and skillfully used various tools to fight Alan, fix the windmill, and launch his campaign, is another. Now, we can see that TCO has also discovered the beauty of creation and is quite talented in this regard (he built a well-designed house on his first attempt). I don't know if it's intentional or not, but it's a very interesting detail, and I think this short can be considered a mini-addition to Ava, helping us better understand the personalities and characters. Very, very good!!!
1:45 not The Chosen One just not focusing at the front and just looking at The Dark Lord 😂❤😊
0:22 one of the most iconic Minecraft soundtracks on iconic animation is nostalgic
Yeah bro
bot comment btw
you fell off
I JUST LAUGHED WHEN TDL WAS ABOUT TO DESTROY IT AND TCO TELLING HIM NOT TO.❤
@@Hummingb1rd ah!
I laughed so hard at the squeaky noise that sand made when Dark kicked it. XD
I like that we got to see more of Dark's powers in action, and also more of Chosen's curiosity and slowly manifesting appreciation for creative things.
I just kept giggling more and more as Dark kept rolling over and over and bouncing until he ends up in the Nether-
ALSO
DARK CANONICALLY HAS AN EVIL LAUGH!!!!!!!!!!
THE-
THE WAY HE MOVED, CHUCKLING IN "Challenge Accepted" BEFORE ATTACKING THE GHAST DUO AND THE REST OF THE NETHER-
He is having so much destructive fun xD
Dark's having the time of his life.
Chosen's having the time of his life.
In extremely different ways, but hey at least we did get Slice of Life content despite the Dark Lord being the menace that he is-
Chosen makes his first home and defends it from a creeper :>
Chosen bypasses the diamonds-
He has no idea-
"Oh neat. Shiny block. Okay, moving on"- XD
Chosen pacman mouth
UvU
Always a treat to see it
HE MADE A TOWER OF TREES
MY JAW DROPPED BECAUSE I'VE ALSO DONE THAT IN MINECRAFT BY BONEMEALING A SAPLING ON TOP OF A TREE AND THEN REPLACING THE DIRT WITH A SPARE LOG SO THE TRUNK IS CONNECTED QHFJQHEJDJQHDJSHU-
i lost my mind for a second there-
[Hehe Second-]
Seeing Dark in the Nether at all makes me think of King Orange vs. The Dark Lord.
HE COMES BACK WITH A PILE OF GOLDEN SWORDS FROM THE ZOMBIE PIGMEN- [*WHEEEZE*]
Chosen hesitating to leave, but he chooses Dark anyway. The only friend he's got. 😢
AAAHHHHH THEY MAKE ME SO INSANE
I love how he actually enjoys Minecraft and this is why he doesn’t cause destruction in the 2nd final picture and tries to stop TDL in the last one. I wonder if he’s gonna join everyone in a later AVM episode
Oh that's how The Chosen One became so chill and quiet when there's no Dark Lord around
1:46 Final Destination deaths:

Dumb ways to die

All of those deaths because of a literal coin

Could you please do an Animation Vs Stick War Legacy? 🙏🙏 I'd die to see that
Alan his giving us a small hint of his upcoming Animation Vs Animators series because Chosen One kept that Minecraft block with itself.
Very interesting take and dynamic. TCO deep down realizes he could stop and smell the flowers. Meanwhile, even in the face of such beauty and freedom, TDL still can’t get enough of the smell of sulfur as he continues his thrill of conquest and destruction. He lives for it, while TCO is capable of living. But the fact that TDL didn’t destroy TCO’s builds, is that a sign he isn’t irredeemable like his more conscious counterpart, or was he simply too bored to care? Either way, it seems a certain someone was hoping to return some day… maybe with a few other stick figure friends.
I love the way he eats the food at 3:13 with the Pac-Man mouth just like he did with Alan's essay so long ago in AvA 😂
TCO: experiencing the joy of minecraft, building a house, exploring what the world has to offer, the calmness of it all and soaking in the warmth
TDL: catch these hands 🙌
I love the resemblance of Orange and the Chosen One which how they first interacted with Minecraft
Maybe when the whole AvA arc is over the gang can reintroduce TCO to Minecraft
