me, knowing the medley: oh, 'hellfire' is gonna be jude, not only for the obvious desolation vibes, but for her own love and devotion for agnes! me, seeing jon instead: OH NO THAT'S MORE FITTING AND IT HURTS
Jonah Magnus was probably fun with that, we all could suspect he was more than he looked, but him going from background historic dude to relevant bitch, it was awesome.
THE SNARKY VIBE OF MICHAEL, THE LITTLE SHIMMY THAT NIKOLA DOES, THE EYES AS THE JUDGING CHORUS IN JONS BIT, ANNABELLE LOOKS SO DELIGHTED WHAT A LITTLE GOBLIN, UGH JUST EVERY CHOICE IN THE MICHAEL SHELLEY BIT GOD HE LOOKS SO DEVASTATED, MR MANGUS HIMSELF BEING A DRAMATIC BASTARD MAN THIS IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE
I love how fitting Hellfire is for John Sims, the lyrics regarding being better or more righteous than the rest is how he's still trying to see himself as human and not an avatar or monster, when he still does monstrous things. In the original, "why I see her standing there" is like, he can't stop thinking about Esmeralda, but for John it's more literal and "her smoldering eyes still scorch my soul" is feeling the Eye's influence on him. Hellfire is about being a weak person who succumbs to their own basic compulsion and selfish desires, like John started doing by compelling random strangers on the street and bringing their fears and nightmares to the forefront of their minds because he feels "hungry" otherwise, when the truly "Righteous" thing to do would be to just. Suffer that pain so many more people don't have to suffer.
i also imagine the girl he's seeing could be any of the people he wants/has taken then statements of. he doesn't want too, hes Better than that, of course! but he still did it..
I initially thought you meant hellfire from the mechanisms since Jonny Sims (The author of tma, not the Archivist) has a band and that's the name of one of their songs But then I realized that you meant the Hellfire in this video
Me, #1 Stranger simp, watching Nikola being dramatic: *wild clapping and cheering* Also me, #1 Distortion simp, watching all of that happen: *absolutely thunderous applause and dead cheering*
This is fantastic. The creepy, faux helpful vibe fits Micheal well; The posturing and vibrancy fits Nicola; while Hellfire doesn't quite fit lyric wise, I love its vibe as a "man, hopelessly entangled, pleads with his god" song and it ends up fitting very well; Annabelle and any song regarding manipulation is an instant win. I was surprised with you bringing in Michael Shelley, but I get it- the Bouncing, foreboding song gives off spiral vibes, and he falls victim to it very easily. I could rewatch the Jonelias bit 100 times without tiring.
Better songs for each character couldn't have been picked omg. Hellfire for Jonathan? Amazing. The Other Side for Micheal? Gave me f e e l i n g s. And ending it with Elias gave such a sense of doom *chef's kiss* I loved it great job
Nikola singing be prepared is PERFECT, and Michael for friends on the other side is just. So choice. Jared Hopworth could also totally fit Ursula, (transform your body for a price!), Jude Perry is perfect for Hellfire too (imagine her singing about Agnes with relish instead of anguish), and I can also see Peter Lukas singing mother knows best to Martin, encouraging him to keep himself isolated! Disney villain songs are hella versatile.
the eye closing on michael shelly's end is just. so perfect. every little choice you made here is just so fantastic and fitting. the way that the animation bounces and moves is just so nice and refreshing to see. fantastic!
OH MY GODD I LOVE THISSS!! Also when I saw the colors change and Jon's name pop up I actually lost it because that was such a cool surpise that Jon was included in the medley like wowowowowow!!!!
THIS WAS AMAZING!!! I Got chills when It transitioned from Nikola's bit to Jon's bit. I was completely not expecting you to include Jon in the villain's medley and GOD what a cool surprise. I also loved the bit where Annabelle Cane was holding her arms out and it shifted to her being controlled by puppet strings. This was so so so cool!! The way you did the motions to make them so fluid without much animation (that I could see) was awesome as well!! How did you do it?
THANK YOU SO MUCH !! surprising people w including jon in it was Exactly my intention actually so im glad it worked out !!! and for the animation, it's a little hard to describe? becically i take the frames that are closest to the transition between two of the drawings and move them just a little torwards where the other drawing is, and when sped up it gives the illusion of motion, if that makes any sense!
Things I LOVE about this - Jon’s fits so well? - The transitions but especially the one from Nickolai to Jon - Nikolai’s verse and dance and design! You captured the Perfect energy for them - “you got what you wanted but you lost what you had” sent tears to my eyes - Annabelle’s string are the end!! - Also her outfit - the fact you even thought to put these characters to this song. GENUIS! - basically everything else too Edit: ALSO - 1:22 makes me emotional - fuckiN ELIAS
Okay, so 1: the song choices are perfect. Hellfire for Jon is such an unexpected but amazing bit. Monster Jon rights 2: holy shit your art is magnificent, especially in the Michael Shelly part 3: the way another chunk of eyes opens around Jonah at the end as each of the other songs gets title dropped again? Best damn part of the video. Thank you so much for making this
*SPOILERS THROUGH TMA 160* edit: stop telling me i shouldve put jared hopworth in the gaston part. go make your own animatic if you want it so bad edit 2: i had this unlisted for a while because i really don't like how it looks anymore, but someone asked for it back so here it is
Personally. I like it just the way it is :) your art style is beautiful and the choice in who went where was perfect. (Im not really a fan of the gaston song and thought it was a bit cluncky(?)) You did an awesome job!
im super late but im so happy its back up, thank you. the hellfire bit is one of my favorite pieces of animation in this fandom, it fits PERFECTLY and it gives me infinite brainrot, 11/10
Ok, so I was very surprised to see Jon in Hellfire as I was 10000% sure it's gonna be Jude Perry (I think many of us expected that) plus I expected to see only antagonists (Jon made few questionable decisions but he is not a bad person) and I must say PUTTING HIM IN THAT SONG WAS THE MOST HEARTBREAKING THING EVER MADE, IT LITERALLY MADE ME CRY. I would never throught about possibility of puting Jon in that song and then when I saw how you done it, it was so clear it suits him ten times better than Jude. This is an amazing video, congras. You are also very talented, the drawings are so beautiful. I knew this medley for a while and always loved it altrought I'm not a big fan of Disney and seeing it combined with TMA made the whole thing even better. I watched this like 10 times in a row. Seems like you got a new subscriber :)
oh my god this is is good!! I just love all the little shifts in expression - especially Nikola's at "listen to teacher". Something about it is just the creepiest shit. And Annabelle's grins, oh my god, and then Jonah with the ~~flourish~~ at the end, iconic.
This hit so different omg the thumbnail doesnt do it justice this is literally the best thing since sliced bread. The transition from nikola to jon was such a golden surprise and jonah at the end?? Literal chills I loved every bit of this. Also poor michael Shelley.
WHAT THE FRICK THIS IS SO EXCELLENT I need to write an enormous comment WITH TIMESTAMPS because this video is- it's genius, and I'm in love so: 0:12 - when Michael's eyes open to "in need" like SHSHSHH DOES ANYONE REMEMBER that s2 finale and "you need a door" anyway the animation was so smooth there got chills.... and then in 0:18 the door opening to "yes indeed" and again 0:29, when the facade falters and her real voice "yes I do" breaks with you incorporating those spirals like DAMN YES Ursula amd Michael, their theatrics and dramatic way of speaking is so similar and I'm in awe. NIKOLA AS SCAR YES!!! both of them have really grand schemes and that carnivalesque musical backdrop uh YEAH. 0:43-0:45 "and where do we feature? Just listen to teacher" that whole part!!! Chef's kiss!! Delightful. Also love how you stuck to her body parts and not her expression to convey that strangeness and not!themness. At 1:03 when the screen becomes grey for Jonathan and I went 👀👀👀 because it. Made. SO. Much sense. I can't even pick timestamps, favourite part of the song and favourite part of the video too. Every time you aligned the choral voices to the eyes and the lyrics and just Jon's angsty ass fits so so well. Incredible. and 1:22-1:24 that nuance in his expression as he struggles with his pride..... literally CHILLS. Annabelle listing the other entities as potential threats, Annabelle being the manipulative gaslighter as Gothel is,, so so fitting and well done!! 2:49 I SCREAMED. Friends on the other side/Michael is kind of sad but also so amazingly shown, that refrain of "you're changing, you're changing, you're changing" with each of his avatar traits slowly forming....and that final curtain drop with "you lost what you had" Jonah and that touch of Elias was so unexpected and yet so right again. Jafar and he are both a particular kind of slimy git and they are both scheming about something. sitting on that throne and cooking up his little schemes, he is so NASTY love that for him. Overall, superb. Sharing this to my discord server
AGGDGATDVACAGDJS WOWOWOWOWOW WOWIE HEHE THIS IS SO GOOD THE JONATHAN SIMS POPPING UP AS HELLFIRE STARTED MADE ME FLING MYSELF INTO THE NEAREST WALL /POS AHHH YES I APPLAUD YOU AND YOUR ANIMATION WOW
Ahhh, all of it is so fabulously done!... But the Jon / Hellfire segment gives me so many feels, I've watched that bit over and over like a dozen times T_T
YOOOOOOO THIS IS AMAZING?! I literally adore all the characters you chose for each part of the medley, even though my personal opinion of a character for Hellfire is different (I would say it was Jude singing about Agnes but- this is only bc I’m hella gay). I’m literally in happy tears seeing Nikola as my favorite Disney villain since she’s my favorite character and I’m imagining the hyenas as Breekon and Hope. ANYWAYS- this is an amazing animatic, I love your choice of characters and their designs are *chef’s kiss* beautiful!
Now, I don't really get that. Jude never painted herself as someone self-righteous. She admits that she's always been about the same temperament, always been at least somewhat sadistic. If anything Agnes just makes her more so, as she's obsessed with agnes not only as a woman, but as an extension of the Lightless Flame.
Oh my gosh that was so awesome. I love the song choices, like Mother Knows Best for the Mother of Puppets? Also you included Jon, which was great, and Hellfire was perfect. (I also find it kind of hilariously ironic because the actual song is about lust and he’s ace.) Michael Shelley’s second part was so sad. Good job!!
oH MY GOD ALL OF THIS IS SO GOOD???? Like your art is so perfect and I love your character designs??? The transitions??? The animated bits???? Perfect???? Also it's so rare I see Annabelle Cane in avatar-related stuff, thank you for this gift of her That Jon part I swearrrr to god, the way you draw The Beholding is so perfect, it really captures the oppressive being-watched feeling that the fear is, it's like,,, the first time I really Got the horror of it, just this inescapable watching and scrutiny, so hats off on that, even canon beholding stuff hasn't nailed the point down as effectively as you have here. And the tone of the song is so perfect too??? Like Jon's struggle with humanity is such a good parallel to Frollo (though quite a bit less creepy), he so wants to be a "good person" (and just a human in general) and is so wrapped up in this idea of him being a martyr (and to some extent he is, don't get me wrong!!) but it's also like,,, there's a period where as much as he's angsting over it, he's still ripping statements out of people with no real remorse, and even his angst is completely self-absorbed too, just like,,, such a good parallel. Oh god and plus he's so well suited to being The Archivist but he keeps clinging desperately to his "humanity" and dfghgmjmgnfdsagfhmnfgdsdas this animatic does so good with it Oh god and poor Michael, that final scene with him just hurt my poor heart, I love how you draw Pre-Spiral Michael, he just looks So Friend Shaped (this is just a personal little silly thing, but I love the way his name flashes in the beginning, with the music it looks like he's a video game character about to run through a level ghkjhghkhj). But I love your way of drawing the Spiral's corridors too!!!! It's so trippy and the way it syncs with the music too just *chefs kiss* beautiful, wonderful, I'm in love Please never stop making TMA content, I'm in love with all of this so much
This is so good! I’ve only just finished bingeing through TMA and this is the perfect thing to watch to deal with all the Feels it has left me with :D I wasn’t sure about how well Hellfire fitted at first, but now it gives me chills (I love where the eyes take over at the end, and the finale with the Watcher’s Crown) and the other ‘villain’ parts fit so perfectly (Michael Shelley’s transformation, Annabelle’s puppet imagery, just the whole ending with Jonah) great job, I loved this!
I was NOT expecting Jon but god what a heart wrenching twist! Jeez hell fire taken in a different context then the original granted fits him a little to well
ok i know i already commented but i have more stuff to say im sorry... the orange highlights in jon's part are beautiful, the way you animated the spiral's corridors is awesome, and im in love with the way you draw jonah, he looks like such a bastard lmaooo also the cut in the music is so seamless that when i went back to listen to the original again i legit was surprised at the missing part
i’ll be honest, i was like “ooh who’s next? maybe prentiss, maybe lukas, who knows?” after nikola and then it focused on jon’s face and HELLFIRE STARTED???? i was shook and it fits so well i was not expecting that edit: your gertrude design is so good as well! (all of them are good tbh but that one stood out)
this is,, almost four months old but i Love It, i've seen it countless times and it never fails to amaze me because it's just that good. every frame is just?? 10/10 amazing job, everything about this is wonderful
i adore how, even though obviously some of the lyrics don't fit in context, you managed to capture the vibes of every character and their personality or motivations perfectly! I love this!
"-THIS IS CALLED VILLAIN MEDLEY BECAUSE THAT'S THE NAME OF THE SONG ON GOD I'M NOT COUNTING JON AND MICHEAL SHELLEY AS VILLAINS. I WOULD NEVER I LOVE THEM" -taken from the description above personally, that first song reminds me more of Jared Hopworth and his "gym" thing, but I love Michael Distortion so I will not argue
also, the Hellfire parallels that the other commenters have so gloriously pointed out to me is heartwrenching, and I love it so much!!! Thank you for bringing this beautiful creation into the world
Oh shit. I'm in love with this video??? Love the animation and your take on which song goes for which character was perfect! Everytime a new character appeared I made a note to myself comment how their part was probably my fav, but then another character appeared and their part was just as good, if not better! Seriously tho, Jon's part, Michael's transformation part and Jonahelias (bastard man) literally gave me shivers. Gonna save this to my playlist so I can come back everyday to see it. Thank you for you hardwork!
I was just rocking out to this (being the overdramatic theatre kid that I am) and the second time I played it through singing along I actually managed to hold that last note all the way through. I legitimately squealed with excitement. Bonus: Also, I (an alto) had to pause the video to get a drink of water after my second time singing (fullout performing in my bedroom) the frollo part. Singing the whole thing that low twice killed my throat.
i don't know if i've commented on this yet, but i cannot stop watching it because it is perfect in every way and i keep coming back to it any time i want to feel Pain(tm)
IM LOSING MY SHIT??? IM LOSING MY SHIT. your TALENT your PASSION your ENERGY i’m unable to speak. michael shelley’s bit with gertrude turning away????? ANNABELLE CANE????? the eyes covering jon??? each time a new segment started i was like wow really how’s this character gonna work with- HOLY SHIT. anyways i have no more words i can’t wait to rewatch 800 more times thanks love
this is the first time that I listened to the entire song thanks to your animation XD And thanks for making know the Hozier, I starting to like the songs of that group X3
me, knowing the medley: oh, 'hellfire' is gonna be jude, not only for the obvious desolation vibes, but for her own love and devotion for agnes!
me, seeing jon instead: OH NO THAT'S MORE FITTING AND IT HURTS
me seeing jon, having started the podcast yesterday: surprised pikachu
Me seeing Jon, completely caught up: crying surprised pikachu
Crying
😬yeaaaah...
Are you caught up? What do you think?
Jonah Magnus was probably fun with that, we all could suspect he was more than he looked, but him going from background historic dude to relevant bitch, it was awesome.
Also, I'm a big fan of the insinuation that the "mama" in mother knows best is the Mother of Puppets
THE SNARKY VIBE OF MICHAEL, THE LITTLE SHIMMY THAT NIKOLA DOES, THE EYES AS THE JUDGING CHORUS IN JONS BIT, ANNABELLE LOOKS SO DELIGHTED WHAT A LITTLE GOBLIN, UGH JUST EVERY CHOICE IN THE MICHAEL SHELLEY BIT GOD HE LOOKS SO DEVASTATED, MR MANGUS HIMSELF BEING A DRAMATIC BASTARD MAN THIS IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE
IKR!!!!!!!!
the hellfire and jon parallel just kicked me and i'm never going to hear it any other way. Also Annabelle and Jonah is spot on, this is really great.
I love how fitting Hellfire is for John Sims, the lyrics regarding being better or more righteous than the rest is how he's still trying to see himself as human and not an avatar or monster, when he still does monstrous things. In the original, "why I see her standing there" is like, he can't stop thinking about Esmeralda, but for John it's more literal and "her smoldering eyes still scorch my soul" is feeling the Eye's influence on him. Hellfire is about being a weak person who succumbs to their own basic compulsion and selfish desires, like John started doing by compelling random strangers on the street and bringing their fears and nightmares to the forefront of their minds because he feels "hungry" otherwise, when the truly "Righteous" thing to do would be to just. Suffer that pain so many more people don't have to suffer.
i also imagine the girl he's seeing could be any of the people he wants/has taken then statements of. he doesn't want too, hes Better than that, of course! but he still did it..
I initially thought you meant hellfire from the mechanisms since Jonny Sims (The author of tma, not the Archivist) has a band and that's the name of one of their songs
But then I realized that you meant the Hellfire in this video
I think agnes Montague works better for hellfire but I love this animatic
Good comment but also its rlly weird seeing it spelled as John instead of Jon
Well put :)
Me, #1 Stranger simp, watching Nikola being dramatic: *wild clapping and cheering*
Also me, #1 Distortion simp, watching all of that happen: *absolutely thunderous applause and dead cheering*
Considering I’m only 2 and a half seasons in, seeing Jon included in this was confusing and fear inducing. GOOD JOB
Update: I have since caught up with the series and I NOW UNDERSTAND E V E R Y T H I N G AND IM STILL TERRIFIED! EXCELLENT JOB!
That fear feeds your patron, expect mild power manifestation within weekly continuation
Don't you do this again, Jonah or I'm snitching on your husb- ex-husb- no, aren't you two toegther again...
I'm snitching to your Big Boy Man!
Don't you do this again, Jonah or I'm snitching on your husb- ex-husb- no, aren't you two toegther again...

Mother gothel: *very good at manipulating and gaslighting people*
Annabelle: hold my spiders-
me, seeing jon in the villains medley, not past 102: ????????????????
All I can say is: be prepared
Ohohohohoho
I feel genuine fear
@@Izzy-iv8pr that's good. Feeds the Eye.
BE PREEEEEPAAAAARED
when it goes “skip the drama, stay with mama” and the web/spider appears behind annabelle... chills’
This is fantastic. The creepy, faux helpful vibe fits Micheal well; The posturing and vibrancy fits Nicola; while Hellfire doesn't quite fit lyric wise, I love its vibe as a "man, hopelessly entangled, pleads with his god" song and it ends up fitting very well; Annabelle and any song regarding manipulation is an instant win. I was surprised with you bringing in Michael Shelley, but I get it- the Bouncing, foreboding song gives off spiral vibes, and he falls victim to it very easily. I could rewatch the Jonelias bit 100 times without tiring.
Yes
Also I think Hellfire fits Jon well in the "I'm being corrupted transforming into a sinful man/monster that hurts other people". An amazing work 💜
I think it fits quite well, especially if you think of the person hes singing about as being the people he took statements from against their will
Yo the amount of pure RAGE I felt reading the name Jonah Magnus. Btw this is a *M A S T E R P I E C E*
Better songs for each character couldn't have been picked omg. Hellfire for Jonathan? Amazing. The Other Side for Micheal? Gave me f e e l i n g s. And ending it with Elias gave such a sense of doom *chef's kiss* I loved it great job
Nikola singing be prepared is PERFECT, and Michael for friends on the other side is just. So choice. Jared Hopworth could also totally fit Ursula, (transform your body for a price!), Jude Perry is perfect for Hellfire too (imagine her singing about Agnes with relish instead of anguish), and I can also see Peter Lukas singing mother knows best to Martin, encouraging him to keep himself isolated! Disney villain songs are hella versatile.
the eye closing on michael shelly's end is just. so perfect. every little choice you made here is just so fantastic and fitting. the way that the animation bounces and moves is just so nice and refreshing to see. fantastic!
Is it Gertrude's eye closing in sadness when Michael... apotheose up?
Because if it is, damn
OH MY GODD I LOVE THISSS!!
Also when I saw the colors change and Jon's name pop up I actually lost it because that was such a cool surpise that Jon was included in the medley like wowowowowow!!!!
Very sexy of Michael to be in there twice.
ANNABELLE...
THATS MY SPIDER WIFE!!!!
"So his prospects take a terminal dip" OUCH 200 MADE THAT ONE HURT A HELL OF A LOT MORE
THIS WAS AMAZING!!! I Got chills when It transitioned from Nikola's bit to Jon's bit. I was completely not expecting you to include Jon in the villain's medley and GOD what a cool surprise. I also loved the bit where Annabelle Cane was holding her arms out and it shifted to her being controlled by puppet strings. This was so so so cool!!

🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
How happy does it make you to watch everyone in the comments being spooked by Jon's inclusion?
VERY
Oh my god I was zoning out at work and I realized Jared Hopworth would have been perfect for the Gaston bit
Things I LOVE about this
- Jon’s fits so well?
- The transitions but especially the one from Nickolai to Jon
- Nikolai’s verse and dance and design! You captured the Perfect energy for them
- “you got what you wanted but you lost what you had” sent tears to my eyes
- Annabelle’s string are the end!!
- Also her outfit
- the fact you even thought to put these characters to this song. GENUIS!
- basically everything else too
Edit: ALSO
- 1:22 makes me emotional
- fuckiN ELIAS
Goood, the transition from Nikola to Jon hurt my gay lil heart
Okay, so
1: the song choices are perfect. Hellfire for Jon is such an unexpected but amazing bit. Monster Jon rights
2: holy shit your art is magnificent, especially in the Michael Shelly part
3: the way another chunk of eyes opens around Jonah at the end as each of the other songs gets title dropped again? Best damn part of the video. Thank you so much for making this
*SPOILERS THROUGH TMA 160*
edit: stop telling me i shouldve put jared hopworth in the gaston part. go make your own animatic if you want it so bad
edit 2: i had this unlisted for a while because i really don't like how it looks anymore, but someone asked for it back so here it is
Personally. I like it just the way it is :) your art style is beautiful and the choice in who went where was perfect. (Im not really a fan of the gaston song and thought it was a bit cluncky(?))
You did an awesome job!
After 196 Annabelle's part was even more perfect because of her recruitment attempts
Is that why you cut the gaston part? q-q
Oof, I'm sorry you've gotten so many comments like that.
I mean I think it's perfect! 💗
im super late but im so happy its back up, thank you. the hellfire bit is one of my favorite pieces of animation in this fandom, it fits PERFECTLY and it gives me infinite brainrot, 11/10
Ok, so I was very surprised to see Jon in Hellfire as I was 10000% sure it's gonna be Jude Perry (I think many of us expected that) plus I expected to see only antagonists (Jon made few questionable decisions but he is not a bad person) and I must say PUTTING HIM IN THAT SONG WAS THE MOST HEARTBREAKING THING EVER MADE, IT LITERALLY MADE ME CRY. I would never throught about possibility of puting Jon in that song and then when I saw how you done it, it was so clear it suits him ten times better than Jude. This is an amazing video, congras. You are also very talented, the drawings are so beautiful. I knew this medley for a while and always loved it altrought I'm not a big fan of Disney and seeing it combined with TMA made the whole thing even better. I watched this like 10 times in a row. Seems like you got a new subscriber :)
jon’s bit made me cry. JAIL
Jon singing hellfire is genius!
MICHAEL MY DARLING THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
also jonah magnus sir who let you be so pretty
I actually can’t stop watching Jon’s section?? Amazing.
there's so much little movement through the whole thing i am in LOVE with that level of detail
This is simply beautiful, my daily dose of serotonin
And also Jonah/Elias with long(ish?) hair is a take I absolutely agree with
oh my god this is is good!! I just love all the little shifts in expression - especially Nikola's at "listen to teacher". Something about it is just the creepiest shit. And Annabelle's grins, oh my god, and then Jonah with the ~~flourish~~ at the end, iconic.
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE LAST ONEEE
oh this slaps
I LOVE THE IDEA OF MICHAEL HAVING THOSE LITTLE MISMATCHED SHAPE GLASSES AAAAAA
I HAVE A SPIRAL AVATAR OC WHO WEARS THOSE TYPES OF GLASSES
"villain" medley
jon: sings hellfire
me: IN PAIN
Jon's part is DEFINITELY my favorite holy SHIT
I wasn't ready for Hellfire Jon! I WASN'T READY!!
This hit so different omg the thumbnail doesnt do it justice this is literally the best thing since sliced bread. The transition from nikola to jon was such a golden surprise and jonah at the end?? Literal chills I loved every bit of this. Also poor michael Shelley.
yo, the annabelle and michael segments were so perfect i got chills. A+. chef's kiss
i want to print thie Entire video out onto paper and then E A T I T oh my G O D i LOVE THIS
Jon being considered a villain: 10/10 You’re doing great sweetie
THE WAY YOU DREW THE WATCHER'S CROWN !!!! I'M LOSING MY MIND THIS BOPS
Annabelle's really hits harder after the finale huh
WHAT THE FRICK THIS IS SO EXCELLENT I need to write an enormous comment WITH TIMESTAMPS because this video is- it's genius, and I'm in love so:
0:12 - when Michael's eyes open to "in need" like SHSHSHH DOES ANYONE REMEMBER that s2 finale and "you need a door" anyway the animation was so smooth there got chills.... and then in 0:18 the door opening to "yes indeed" and again 0:29, when the facade falters and her real voice "yes I do" breaks with you incorporating those spirals like DAMN YES Ursula amd Michael, their theatrics and dramatic way of speaking is so similar and I'm in awe.
NIKOLA AS SCAR YES!!! both of them have really grand schemes and that carnivalesque musical backdrop uh YEAH. 0:43-0:45 "and where do we feature? Just listen to teacher" that whole part!!! Chef's kiss!! Delightful. Also love how you stuck to her body parts and not her expression to convey that strangeness and not!themness.

Overall, superb. Sharing this to my discord server
the attention to detail in this is insaaaane like WHAAAT
HOLY SHIT THIS IS AMAZING!!! And putting Jon in there for Hellfire was truly a GENIUS move!!!
I swear to god the Jurgen Leitner rant is like Rick Roll but for TMA.
Oooooh I love your version of Jonah Magnus!!!
AGGDGATDVACAGDJS WOWOWOWOWOW WOWIE HEHE THIS IS SO GOOD THE JONATHAN SIMS POPPING UP AS HELLFIRE STARTED MADE ME FLING MYSELF INTO THE NEAREST WALL /POS
AHHH YES I APPLAUD YOU AND YOUR ANIMATION WOW
Ahhh, all of it is so fabulously done!... But the Jon / Hellfire segment gives me so many feels, I've watched that bit over and over like a dozen times T_T
the stuff dripping off john in the second song isn't sweat
its lotion
HHH THE PART WHERE JON WAS AT THE FOREFRONT WAS SO GOOD????
IT WAS. SO WELL DONE??
YOOOOOOO THIS IS AMAZING?! I literally adore all the characters you chose for each part of the medley, even though my personal opinion of a character for Hellfire is different (I would say it was Jude singing about Agnes but- this is only bc I’m hella gay). I’m literally in happy tears seeing Nikola as my favorite Disney villain since she’s my favorite character and I’m imagining the hyenas as Breekon and Hope. ANYWAYS- this is an amazing animatic, I love your choice of characters and their designs are *chef’s kiss* beautiful!
I totally agree with Jude as an alternate for Hellfire. I feel like the lyrics fit her better.
Now, I don't really get that. Jude never painted herself as someone self-righteous. She admits that she's always been about the same temperament, always been at least somewhat sadistic. If anything Agnes just makes her more so, as she's obsessed with agnes not only as a woman, but as an extension of the Lightless Flame.
I got so many chills when Jon fell to the ground hhh this whole thing is just incredible
I am impressed at how fucking well all of these fit. Especially Nikola's. "A shiny new era is tiptoeing nearer"??? GodDAMN!
This. Was. Incredible!!! Jon's bit gave me chills!!!!
Oh my gosh that was so awesome. I love the song choices, like Mother Knows Best for the Mother of Puppets? Also you included Jon, which was great, and Hellfire was perfect. (I also find it kind of hilariously ironic because the actual song is about lust and he’s ace.) Michael Shelley’s second part was so sad. Good job!!
oH MY GOD ALL OF THIS IS SO GOOD???? Like your art is so perfect and I love your character designs??? The transitions??? The animated bits???? Perfect???? Also it's so rare I see Annabelle Cane in avatar-related stuff, thank you for this gift of her
That Jon part I swearrrr to god, the way you draw The Beholding is so perfect, it really captures the oppressive being-watched feeling that the fear is, it's like,,, the first time I really Got the horror of it, just this inescapable watching and scrutiny, so hats off on that, even canon beholding stuff hasn't nailed the point down as effectively as you have here. And the tone of the song is so perfect too??? Like Jon's struggle with humanity is such a good parallel to Frollo (though quite a bit less creepy), he so wants to be a "good person" (and just a human in general) and is so wrapped up in this idea of him being a martyr (and to some extent he is, don't get me wrong!!) but it's also like,,, there's a period where as much as he's angsting over it, he's still ripping statements out of people with no real remorse, and even his angst is completely self-absorbed too, just like,,, such a good parallel. Oh god and plus he's so well suited to being The Archivist but he keeps clinging desperately to his "humanity" and dfghgmjmgnfdsagfhmnfgdsdas this animatic does so good with it
Oh god and poor Michael, that final scene with him just hurt my poor heart, I love how you draw Pre-Spiral Michael, he just looks So Friend Shaped (this is just a personal little silly thing, but I love the way his name flashes in the beginning, with the music it looks like he's a video game character about to run through a level ghkjhghkhj). But I love your way of drawing the Spiral's corridors too!!!! It's so trippy and the way it syncs with the music too just *chefs kiss* beautiful, wonderful, I'm in love
Please never stop making TMA content, I'm in love with all of this so much
Oh, I loved this? Especially Jon in Hellfire, oh man
I've watched this so many times
coming back to this after mag197 because annabelle‘s part fits PERFECTLY. god bless you
I literally cannot stop watching this... the whole thing is fantastic
I'm addicted to this video
This is so good! I’ve only just finished bingeing through TMA and this is the perfect thing to watch to deal with all the Feels it has left me with :D I wasn’t sure about how well Hellfire fitted at first, but now it gives me chills (I love where the eyes take over at the end, and the finale with the Watcher’s Crown) and the other ‘villain’ parts fit so perfectly (Michael Shelley’s transformation, Annabelle’s puppet imagery, just the whole ending with Jonah) great job, I loved this!
The transition to Jon SENT me 🙌🙌🙌
I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS IT FITS SO WELL AAAAAA I’M BLOWN AWAY YOU DID SUCH A GOOD JOB
CANNOT GET OVER JON WITH HELLFIRE OH MY GOD
God i love this so much. Hellfire fits jon so well. Aaaaa its amazing thank u so much!!!!
I was NOT expecting Jon but god what a heart wrenching twist! Jeez hell fire taken in a different context then the original granted fits him a little to well
ok i know i already commented but i have more stuff to say im sorry... the orange highlights in jon's part are beautiful, the way you animated the spiral's corridors is awesome, and im in love with the way you draw jonah, he looks like such a bastard lmaooo also the cut in the music is so seamless that when i went back to listen to the original again i legit was surprised at the missing part
i’ll be honest, i was like “ooh who’s next? maybe prentiss, maybe lukas, who knows?” after nikola and then it focused on jon’s face and HELLFIRE STARTED???? i was shook and it fits so well i was not expecting that
edit: your gertrude design is so good as well! (all of them are good tbh but that one stood out)
this is,, almost four months old but i Love It, i've seen it countless times and it never fails to amaze me because it's just that good. every frame is just?? 10/10 amazing job, everything about this is wonderful
Holds ur hands
I love this so much Jon's part ripped my wig off of my head sO HARD BUT THIS IS ALL VERY VERY WELL DONE
I Love This!!! Jon's part has to be my favorite alongside Annabelle's part. They really just flowed together and fit the characters!
Oh,, my god,, oh my g,,, oh my gOd,,,,,,,, this was so gorgeous and excellent and good and OW jfc.
i adore how, even though obviously some of the lyrics don't fit in context, you managed to capture the vibes of every character and their personality or motivations perfectly! I love this!
"-THIS IS CALLED VILLAIN MEDLEY BECAUSE THAT'S THE NAME OF THE SONG ON GOD I'M NOT COUNTING JON AND MICHEAL SHELLEY AS VILLAINS. I WOULD NEVER I LOVE THEM" -taken from the description above
personally, that first song reminds me more of Jared Hopworth and his "gym" thing, but I love Michael Distortion so I will not argue
also, the Hellfire parallels that the other commenters have so gloriously pointed out to me is heartwrenching, and I love it so much!!! Thank you for bringing this beautiful creation into the world
Oh man this is awesome! Michael Shelley's segment is my favourite, it fits so well!
Oh shit. I'm in love with this video??? Love the animation and your take on which song goes for which character was perfect!
Everytime a new character appeared I made a note to myself comment how their part was probably my fav, but then another character appeared and their part was just as good, if not better!
Seriously tho, Jon's part, Michael's transformation part and Jonahelias (bastard man) literally gave me shivers.
Gonna save this to my playlist so I can come back everyday to see it.
Thank you for you hardwork!
Annabelle ain't a villain!
She's queen...
I was just rocking out to this (being the overdramatic theatre kid that I am) and the second time I played it through singing along I actually managed to hold that last note all the way through. I legitimately squealed with excitement.
Bonus: Also, I (an alto) had to pause the video to get a drink of water after my second time singing (fullout performing in my bedroom) the frollo part. Singing the whole thing that low twice killed my throat.
This absolutely killed me, the animation is so fluid and lovely, the character designs are gorgeous, and the song choices were perfect! So great!
OH OHHO HO THIS IS EXCELLENT god i almost yelled out loud at jonathan's part in hellfire
I love what you did with Jons part it was perfect
this is amazing for a lot of reasons but honestly I might be the most impressed by you managing to make hellfire a sympathetic song
i don't know if i've commented on this yet, but i cannot stop watching it because it is perfect in every way and i keep coming back to it any time i want to feel Pain(tm)
HNNNN THIS IS PEAK E V E R Y T H I N G !!! an icon dare i say!!! we stan!!!
Having Hellfire for Jon fits in more ways than one, since Real Person Jonathan Sims has a song he sings called Hellfire as well (with The Mechanisms)
that hit, every second of it. esp jon tho??? that shit hurted
annabelles part hits different post-mag200 sajkhddahdk
um yes hello that was??? amazing??? its all so fitting and wonderful??
absolutely LOST it when Hellfire came on for Jon, it's the best villain song imo and fits so well. thank u for making this!!
I keep coming back and rewatching this because its SO GOOD
Oh my god I was not expecting Jon’s bit!!! That was so good!!! I was captivated the whole time!!!
I'm really in love with your Nikola, she's so cute and her tiny changes in expression are so good!!!! Also your Jonah is kinda hot 👉👈
IM LOSING MY SHIT??? IM LOSING MY SHIT. your TALENT your PASSION your ENERGY i’m unable to speak. michael shelley’s bit with gertrude turning away????? ANNABELLE CANE????? the eyes covering jon??? each time a new segment started i was like wow really how’s this character gonna work with- HOLY SHIT. anyways i have no more words i can’t wait to rewatch 800 more times thanks love
this is the first time that I listened to the entire song thanks to your animation XD
And thanks for making know the Hozier, I starting to like the songs of that group X3
