The Last Life SMP is a Minecraft semi-hardcore series where every player is assigned a random amount of lives. Once you lose all your lives, you are permanently dead. During each session of Last Life, there is a chance you will be selected to have the Boogeyman's Curse. This means that you must kill another player before the session ends, or else there will be dire consequences.

Thank you so much!
🤎🧡♥️
It's is truly incredible
Big B is my favorite person in all of the life smps. I don't know why. I just like him.
Exactly!
1:20
I love the presentation of Mumbo's end crystals. Subtly glowing in the buildup before the potion is even thrown, and then the slow, methodical way he blasts Bdubs with it.
And then Etho coming in with a PASSION to avenge his base buddy - feels like one of the more violent moments in this whole animation.
Etho was also a buggy. So he avenged his buddy and cured himself
I just love that it makes mumbo like a mage casing a spell
I love it cause in the scene where etho holds the potion you can see mumbo and bdubs at the sides with their eyes red too, it's just boogeyman vs boogeyman mumbo got bdubs then etho got mumbo, tho bdubs broke the chain by getting tango
And can we acknowledge the sheer majesty Mumbo has when he sweeps the smoke away?
@@elliothellyer933
Yes, yes, we can indeed
I love the detail of Ren's ears dropping down when he realizes he's trapped, this animation is genuinely fantastic so congrats on 1 million views
That’s such an incredible detail! I wouldn’t have spotted it
I liked that too. Very accurate
I have a question about a potential trap design
If pillagers can shoot creepers to draw their ago then is it possible to trap charged creeper and put it next villager and put the pillager where it will shoot the villager but instead hit the charged creeper drawing agro Leading to a larger explosion than normal tnt
2:09
@@noahneverasked3651pearl did.
BigB’s betrayal, Mumbo’s crystal, Etho’s slam dunk, Etho’s fishing hook kill, Tango’s rage, Pearl’s boogie kill, and Scott’s win, chef’s kiss. THIS WAS AMAZING!
My two favorite things in this animatic is ethos fishing hook kill, I love the movement in that animation and I love tangos facial expressions when he was angry.
Even got little woods railless tnt minecart on tango
and damn lizzie's two deaths was brutal
That crystal was beautiful!
The action in every scene is amazing and captures their expression! It is amazing!
1:37
I appreciate that Tango's rage got a healthy amount of recognition.
The sheer screen time and illustration Tango's rage got- I could hear Tango's seething grunts and through that animation and I LOVE IT LMAO
I 100% agree with you
Honestly tho
Don't worry he's a professional
Who could forget!
0:45 is my favorourite scene. With all the death and distrust elsewhere, seeing someone save another and actual friendship was so wholesome.
When was that in last life? I cannot figure it out.
@Cyantist12 in case you didn't figure it out yet its in martyns episode 2 at the 45 minute mark
:) it was cute
I love the fact that when Scott killed Impulse, he just cheerfully went
“Bye!”
"Well that worked" lol
I don't know why, but I had to get out of my seat, and get onto the ground before busting out laughing after that.
@@drakehatch9171 so did I lol
Impulse made the hole for a boogey kill and it was used for one
@@ddesmarais7251just not in the way he thought lol
The boogyman mechanic was such a genius addition to last life. It creates perfect opportunities for drama, and a good basis for so much headcanon lore.
Not to mention, it forced the season to play out to reach an end. It's no small task getting that many people from all around the world to record simultaneously, so they knew they needed a means to keep the season relatively short.
@Element of Kindness well, not necessarily. third life had no boogeyman mechanic and it was a week shorter than last life. there were more lives in play in last life than there was in third life, though, so that come into play as well
My head cannon is it’s a god forcing them kill each other to find the strongest warrior
@@arcticsurge5627 Since Grian is the one who explains the rules Everytime and assumably cane up with the concept, I've always thought it was Grian creating a world to be a watcher for but then being to chaotic not to join in.
@@arielgalles2107 That does make sense. He does have the power to smite people.
I find it really cool how you really showed Scott being the only boogeyman to allow himself to turn red without a kill and then immediately after winning last life. I never realized that before.
@@suzuneblade and pearl
Wait, really? I didn’t get to see the end of third life, after Grian got killed since I was watching his view, and I became VERY busy after. So yeah ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Scott’s legit In that moment just proves why he’s one of the nicest “lifers”
But he did have a boogeyman kill right?
@@ethanking9093 yes, but the second time he was boogeyman he chose not to kill anyone
it makes it look more emotional than it actually is. In the actual game, it's just all laughs and joking around. Here it looks like people actually feel the sadness and grief expressed in the animation
That’s what’s so good about these animatics!
except for Tango, he was genuinely enraged
that's what i love about the life series fandom lol. we take everything much more seriously than it really is
I love how well the song pairs up so well with the animation. For example, in 1:41, the scene depicts Smallishbeans running away from LDShadowLady-who he killed-while the lyrics were “Won’t you stay with me, my Darling,”. This is ironic as he’s running away from his wife while the music is stating the opposite; someone staying beside their beloved. Thank you for reading my Ted Talk.
wAIT that's actually a really cool detail :0
and the previous "stay with me" was bigb and cleo, who were allies until bigb killed cleo.
And "Every word I say is kindling" during the scene when Lizzie lured Scott and pearl into a trap with the promise of a slime farm and killed pearl.
Crane wives cool
wow thank you mafuyu asahina i didnt know you enjoyed anything let alone the life series
CHRIS! This was incredible! Your expressions (as always) are INCREDIBLE, and the visual effects really sell the ideas you're trying to convey - this is stunning!!! :D
Bruv I see you everywhere lol but your videos are very poggies
thank you so much ani! :D
Couldn’t have said it better ani
Ani :)
Hello the animation wizard man
I really love the choice to depict the Boogeyman as a bit of a wandering curse, a kind of spirit that roams from victim to victim. It's a really good interpretation of the mechanic. This is very well done Chris. Oh forget the formalities, this was AMAZING!
Oh my gosh I never noticed that there’s literally something going from boogey to boogey. Nice catch dude
and the spirit even comes in and makes scott red without him dying
1:41 dang, that death hit hard! That was a tough episode for Lizzie! But her lying in a pool of her own blood was such an incredible scene!
"won't you stay with me, my darling" while her own husband kills her
@@themanthrmyththelegendPFTTTT
Honestly, there's something particularly sinister about the death messages that don't assign any blame.
Skizzleman fell from a high place
BdoubleO100 blew up
LDShadowLady tried to swim in lava
Smajor1995 fell out of the world
Like, it almost seems like they could be an accident.
yeah, it's like... it COULD have been anything. but it wasnt.
You scien what up
@@mr_lemonade4230 wasn't expecting to see you here
nay all of those kills were boogeymen kills
@@ThatOneDudeWhoSetHimselfABlaze but like if the boogey set a trap or smtn then the death message would just be so and so blew up or fell from a high place
Oh my god I just realized you lined up the word “mercy” with Scott choosing to let the boogeyman curse consume take his life rather than killing someone else! That’s so clever!!
The words sync up in other parts to
Ex: "ashes" when it shows Lizzie falling in the lava
(Yes 5 months later this animation is still awesome)
@@bloobrush1679 yeah it is
Im so late :(
Another ex: “stay with me my darling,” Bigb killing Cleo
Actually, he wasn't the boogyman, and he didn't spare anyone, when he said mercy it shows him being the last one alive, that's why he falls out of the world... In the video it shows he falls out of the world, and it's at a mountain sooooo, no, he didn't spare and he wasn buggyboi
This is incredible! The way you portrayed the curse as going around as a small light and infecting people is genius!
My favorite detail is Ren’s ears laying down at 2:09. Animals like dogs and cats that have ears standing up usually fold them down like that when they are scared and angry, and blending the fear and anger Ren felt in that moment is so subtle and probably not even intentional, but I love it
Can I just bring to light a scene that I think deserves way more attention then it got? 2:02 with Inthelittewoods blowing up both Bdubs and Tango was absolutely well executed, and perfectly timed as the song quite literally goes “The devils after both of us.” My favorite scene.
Actually, I think that Bdubs’ death was because of Pearl. If I’m remembering right, then she was originally the boogieman before something happened that made her unable to play for the day, so Martyn (or however you spell his name) became the boogieman. However, Pearl had laid out that trap before she was forced off, so maybe it was still her kill? Idk, lol.
@@silverfrost1578 and partially because of Cleo, because bigb though Cleo left his stuff in the chest
I think it was BigB that got blown up and not Bdubs but there name are very similar so it could be that you misspelled but just incase you didn't I made this comment :) (and I am 5 months late but I guess you can now watch the animation again)
Omg thank youu i thought i was the only one
This is amazing! I love how you depicted Scott’s kill especially, I feel like the fandom focuses a lot on his second Boogey curse where he decided not to kill anyone as a tactical decision, while he pretty brutally hunted Impulse down the first time lol
Well, he did have more lives to lose when he killed Impulse, which kinda shows that the more lives someone had, the more desperate they become when they become when they become the boogeyman. Joel in session 2 was the best example of it.
@@darkdragoness5 But wasn't he still green the second time?
@@dakivii5076 No he was yellow
@@jonathanbierman6305 Maybe I confuse him with someone else. I mean the guy who was in Pearls "disco" with Ren and Etho
@@darkdragoness5 Nah. When Scott got boogie the second time, he didn't want to betray anyone and yeah.
OH MY GOD THAT ENDING. oh my god. dude. the way bigb’s curse fades just after he kills cleo. the six boogey session. ren’s glasses reflecting to show his infected eyes. this is absolutely gorgeous and i will never be over it actually.
So, y'know, been watching this for like the last few months now because it's brilliant.
Just now realized at 1:20 you can see Mumbo & Bdubs with red eyes as they both later in that episode have their own boogey kills.
That's amazing.
I can't help but notice that the quality of the animation rises as the video progresses. It's not necessarily a mistake, it's just interesting. Fantastic work in any case.
I did work on this video in segments! I took a break from working on it to finish The Other Side animatic first, and then I returned to this one! So it would make sense that you'd see an increase in quality :]
Never thought I'd see another Last Life animatic seeing it's been quite a while since its ended, but OH BOY. Nuff' said, take my heart.
/givelife chrisrin
YOOOO THIS WAS SO GREAT! You have such a great sense for dynamic poses and effects. I think my favorite part was when Mumbo killed Bdubs with the crystal, and then Etho just comes in swinging after Mumbo, the animation was so fluid and impactful.
:O Yoooo Rusty is here!!!
@@catherinelin8548 Ikr, I can't function with all of these talented animators in the same place
I was just thinking this in my head lol. I really like the mumbo scene.
Hi
Hi Rusty!
Episode 6 is so chaotic. There were 6 boogeymen, and like 7 people decided to group together for a "stack kill", of which three were boogeymen. One boogeyman kills another boogeyman, then a third kills that boogeyman, then the first boogeyman who is now red is given a life and immediately kills the person who gave them the life. Then the fourth boogeyman tries to kill a target but is blown up instead, then returns, kills that target. That target's own trap kills the fifth boogeyman, whose trap then kills that target a second time. Also a sixth boogeyman got a kill and another non-boogeyman drowned because they forgot to press the swim key up a water column.
Rip scar,
Suddenly forgot how to swim
You lost me at the fourth bogeeyman
The last part of the last sentence is GTWScar in a nutshell
Would have been a utter slaughter by mumbo if that had the right difficulty set😔
@@snowkitty19144th boogey is Joel, he traps Lizzies mushroom but Grian finds him and it blows up, Lizzie is weakened and doesn’t heal, Joel comes back and kills her
5th was Scott, he hunts impulse, starting in the scottage basement where imp escapes, imp has a trap set up for when he needs to use it and Scott pushes him in
Timmy is the last Boogey and wasn’t related to any of the others, he lured Lizzie into the exile trap where she fell in lava
I absolutely love the last part of "Make a mercy out of" because I know it ends with "me" and it works so well with Scott just refusing to kill someone, making him a "mercy"
Crane wives are the best XD
Stunning✨ Immaculate✨
Every emotion, every scene, the way the colors swirl and morph into another as transitions, the way the boogyman curse shows itself in the eyes, THE SCOTT SUPREMACY BEING SMITED AT THE END!
Amazing job!!
So good. I loved the pacing and the little hint of red denoting that the player is now in the thrall of the curse.
I love how at 0:57 when Ren kills Skizz, right before Ren pulls the lever the light flashes across his glasses, revealing them to be red. You can even see how Skizz knows that he's in trouble from his expression. Amazingly done, I love it.
I keep coming back to this; I absolutely am obsessed 😭😭😭😭
Etho’s fishingpole kill, Skizz’ fall, the GORGEOUS segment of Scott’s face when impulse gets away, the INSANE art for Pearl’s boogie kill…
I am screaming and crying I stayed up JUST watching this over and over again I swear this is amazing skshksbd
I literally smile like an idiot every time this appears on my front page again and put everything off for a second just to watch this sjdbbd this is my current hyperfixation god
@@keitksn I need help too
@@keitksn it’s so good
That button press is one of the best button presses ever XD
@@Bxu021 mhm
You did NOT have to go that hard my friend, this looks like an insane amount of work. Love the specific focus on all the Boogie Kills, and ending on Scott having refused to kill right before winning it all was *chef's kiss* .
Okay all Comments are amazing but I saw NO ONE pointing out this amazing song lyrics and animation and lore combo.
01:46 "When this house don't feel like home?" is the lyrics and we see Scott chasing Impulse and getting the kill.
See this direct quote from Brittanica dictionary: House refers to a building in which someone lives. In contrast, a home can refer either to a building or to any location that a person thinks of as the place where she lives and that belongs to her.
Or in other words House is just the building but Home is where someone belongs, lives and most importantly *_Feels safe_* .
And Impulse escapes to his base a.k.a. to his house after escaping from Scott's first boogey attack. But he gets attacked (or rather pushed down) in his base. His base a.k.a. his house wasn't safe... *_His house.. Wasn't home..._*
Thank you for coming to my TED talk
Appreciate for pointing that out i rate your TED talk with flying colors
crane wives my beloved
Now this is what I call an estude observation.
that is like so symbolic omg that's really cool
No, I thank you for making the TED talk my friend :)
Kate Pillsbury, one of the singers of The Crane Wives, said at a concert that when somebody animated Curses in 2022, it changed their lives. Before that, they were a small band without much recognition outside their home U.S. state of Michigan. But ever since that animatic, they have become well known throughout the internet and developed a large fanbase. When I heard her say this, I instantly thought of this video. It’s the video that got me into the crane wives, and no doubt plenty of other fans too. This is a canon part of Crane Wives history right here.
Wow that’s really cool
I love this video. I love all the smaller details, like when Etho is holding a splash posion. You can see the red in Mumbo and Bdubs eyes too. Mumbo is acually holding a end crystal ready to kill. Amazing work! Enjoyed it so much.
BTW how was Grian teaming up with Joel after getting killed by him every time Grian was on red?
@@VannyVR1987 1) Sympathy. Being the first red in episode 2, Joel spent the most part of the first few episodes as a line wolf. He wanted friends.
2) Doesn't make sense to kill off a red when so many non-reds are alive, when you could use their help.
Good thing they were on easy mode when mumbo pulled that lol.
THIS IS INSANE???? The Crane Wives, Last Life, AND some absolutely stunning art?? I'm blown away, the way your represent the lives and the boogeyman curse, and you give each character their place to shine! You get across that feeling of betrayal, paranoia, and love lost which was so paramount to Last Life, and of course the song choice is perfect for it! Amazingly done!
This is absolutely perfect ohmygod??? You captured the vibes so well and every frame was so well drawn!! I really loved the transition at 1:46 !! Lizzie’s blood flowing and then transitioning to the lava that’s in scott’s and impulse’s fight scene thing is so smart!! And the ending was so cool too!! I’m absolutely speechless!!!
my favorite part of this video is probably at 1:11 with etho's fishing rod kill. i just love the simple elegance conveyed, where etho pulled scar up and slashed with one hand in almost a bow. the whole thing is really well done
I once said that Curses was my favorite Crane Wives song and that i knew it like the back of my hand. Someone then asked me if by any chance i was familiar with the Life Series, and i wasn't at the time. I started watching the Life Series last week and i am so grateful for that interaction because im literally in love with this series and the combination of my favorite series and my favorite song is just incredible
0:48
MARTYN COMING TO RENS RESCUE WAS SO SWEET ❤️
THAT WAS FANTASTIC! I love the depiction of the Boogeymen as being a curse. In-game, we get an explanation. But the lore implications are fantastic
I love the depiction of the random choice of who becomes the killer for the sessions. This little red wisp floating/zooming around and then the eyes turn freaking great depiction of that choice.
0:51the song just fits PERFECTLY
One of the greatest things about this is that the song matches with it so well as well as pefectly timed. For example, when Big B killed Cleo the song said "Won't you stay with me my darling." the same when Lizzie died and when Skiz was falling down to Ren's trap it said "down, down, down".
THAT WAS AMAZING! The movements timed with the music, how certain scenes were portrayed along with the boogey curse and transitioned into others so well (for example Lizzie dying and her death quite literally bleeding into the next scene with Scott and Impulse- THE ENDING? THAT LOOKED SO COOL? Amazing all around!
I love watching different creators takes on the series! This one focuses on the boogeyman, while others focus on alliances or betrayals or deaths.
Very nice work and perfect song for the video
I can't even count the amount of times I've rewatched this at this point, literally stunning animation and portrayal of how it went down here. I love this sm aaaaaaaaaa
My absolute favorite part was with Ren and Martyn. They are absolutely amazing at acting and I can tell they are really good friends.
all i can think about is how perfect the "the devils after both of us" line was timed with that double kill omg
coming back to this two seasons later, and it is still a gorgeous masterpiece! I can see how much work was put into selecting the scenes for each lyric, and I'm sure a lot of comments have mentioned different parts, but something I liked a lot is the beat at 1:01 during skizz's fall, the instrumentals kicking in just as he hits the ground almost sound like his heart breaking, and I thought that was super cool!!
No one is talking about that scene!!!! I love how it looks and how the music matches perfectly. It was so cool and I felt like it wasn’t getting the attention that it deserves!!
3 seasons for me!
The part where bigb pulled her body out the water broke my heart all over again. This animation is gorgeous
So many little details! Is Grian wearing sealed elytra at 0:25 ? And I just adore Scar's design in this animatic!
He is.
What a PESKY BIRD.
I swear half the views is just me cause I’ve been watching practically on repeat! I’m obsessed with all of your last life animatics, keep up the amazing work!!
The other half is me, rewatching it, each twenty minutes, for two days
and me lol
@@confused9831 yeah its very adicting for some reason
I also contributed a third half of the views... so many views caused the math engine of the universe to overload which is why we somehow have 150% of the views in total
@@Smitology hmm i must be the fourth half then. Ive just been watching this on repeat for the past few days. For some reason its so addicting
Y’know, when I come back to this animatic I think: This started a new page of my entire life. It changed my interests, everything. I only watched Scott’s series on the sidelines, but this AMV got me into everything that makes me *me*. It gave me my favorite fandom The Life Series, and got me into The Crane Wives, which has come to be my all time favorite band alongside Lovejoy. Got me into art, as well, since i have been drawing before, but this started getting me intrigued with human designs as i had only drawn dragons and cats. It’s amazing what one video can change an entire person’s life, and i’m happy to call this my one of my all time favorite AMVs, as it’ll always have a special place in my heart for started a new page in my life.
I love how just happy and full of smiles Jimmy is as Lizzie is burning in lava, as if nothing was happening at 1:57
A FELLOW WOF FAN!!! I see I am not alone.
Where did Wings of Fire get brought up in this?
@@jetho9859 i used to have a wings of fire pfp
@@thatdangartistgrrl Makes sense.
1:27 with etho and mumbo is so clean i love it!
YOOOO!! I’M ALREADY SO HYPED. THAT’S ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS. I can’t wait to see what creative things you do with this! I already know this is gonna be such a blast!
I love the way this takes a series that was fun and friendly and turns it into a dark and disturbing idea. The idea alone of a curse is extraordinary.
This is incredible, I can't believe I'm only seeing this now! My girlfriend introduced me to Last Life, and I'm so glad she did because I loved it almost as much as I love this animatic!! Amazing work!
THIS ENTIRE THIIIING god i can't even find WORDS i tried thinking of something when i saw the premiere yesterday but i COULDNT, IT'S ALL SO GOOD!! i gotta say 0:43 is my favorite part, we love a good renchanting duo moment!!
Is that sequence a reference to a specific moment in the series? I watched Ren's series and don't seem to remember that happening. 🤔
@@michaelford5563 yes it is! i can't remeber the clip exactly, but ren went a lil nuts and started burning his tower up, then martyn & someone else went up with water buckets in a panic to help him. the entire thing was hilarious
@@citruslllad Do you know when in the series that was? I can’t find it anywhere
@@emrs4237 I suggest watch Inthelittlewood's Video, unfortunately i don't remember which episode it was, i think it was epsiode 2
that moment gives me so much serotonin??? like theres ren just in yhe middle of his burning building and Martyn vaults in- and the smiles they exchange hhhhh its so good
THAT WAS SO SICK!!! First off, I LOVE how smooth the animations are. As always, it’s absolute chef’s kiss! The entire Lizzie comic going up in flames?? Truly gorgeous. Just stunning!
The Etho animation with Scar was totally brutal, my dude, but his kill on Mumbo though??? That axe??? Bruh, Etho popped off. I think all of Team BEST’s moments here might be some of my favorite scenes you did because holy shit!!! That Skizz animation with the fall??? THAT WAS JUST SO COOL!!! I fucking love Skizz, but that was just so lovely??? Everything about it’s just top tier!
THE REN AND MARTYN MOMENT!! WE LOVE OUR WHOLESOME DOGWARTS. IT’S SO CUTE AND I LOVE THAT SCENE, BUT SEEN IT ANIMATED WITH MARTYN POP UP AND IT’S JUST AHDKAKFG THEY MAKE ME SOFT. THANK YOU, CHRIS, FOR INCLUDING THAT.
Back to the brutal moments, Martyn’s cart push??? The Tango rage??? Mumbo lurking during the big meetup before the potion goes down?!! Just AAAAAAAA!! There’s so much I just love about this and I’m probably gonna be watching this a dozen times over.
Thank you for just! THIS. THIS LOVELY BEAUTY. AND IT’S ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS AND I’M JUST AHSJAKDFG You’re wonderful and your animations have once again just made me the happiest being! (Sorry for the rambles btw!)
1:40 is just heartbreaking to see and funny with the timing of the song at the same time
Mumbo's crystals are so,,, fluid. The concept of putting an end crystal down can feel clunky, but your animation makes it as smooth as mumbo manages to do it. Amazing.
THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL- all the boogeymen scenes, the shots, the way they’re all COLORED FOR CRYING OUT LOUD- NOW THATS AN AMAZING ANIMATIC! I thought it wouldn’t have gotten better from the last one but I was so wrong- wonderful work!!
The eyes at the end man. My lore heart can’t take much more of this today. And the day just started ( I mean that literally it’s 1:26 AM the day just started)
This was the animation that got me go watch the life series, I had no idea what any of those people were I now, re-watching it I was able to recognize everyone. Life has become one of my favorites, so thank you for this incredible animation
1:57, the look on Tim's face is priceless
This was so beautifully animated and it’s so clear how much effort and time went into this!! I don’t have the words this was just amazing!!!!!
Can’t wait to see this!
same
your first!
This animation really sums up how brutal last life was. Death murder and betrayal, that’s most of what was there and that’s what the animation shows. Amazing job
It's so funny that these animations always depict etho being the boogeyman as a serious deadly killer when in reality he just yells "IT WAS ME I'M THE BOOGEY"
YOU NEVER MISS! You never miss the mark, and this is more proof!
The fact it's all colored adds a whole other level to the events, especially with the emphasis on the colors of the lives. The transitions from the colors jumping to each other, like Scott's floating things, works incredibly well!
And even when the scenes are changing, the action flows so well, like that Scott and Impulse scuffle was so clear to see even in the rapid motion of it all. The perspectives too! Martyn pushing the TNT minecart and leaping over the edge to save Ren were AMAZING shots, and you can see the movement present with just a few frames alone.
The boogeyman curse being shown as a little firelight, swooping from player to player, turning their eyes red, was a fantastic way to show who the killer was, quick and easy to understand! It felt like it was flowing from scene to scene too, as if it's leaving a trail of death behind it no matter where it goes.
I'm such a huge fan of how minecraft deaths are portrayed, and the way you depicted the boogeyman kills was just. Yes. These are exactly how you could picture them within the moment, they're solid and brutal, and get the point across. Even with the kills, the shots still switch it up, from front, to back, to the side, it's not just one visible angle for all of them, and they all feel so dynamic.
This was even more incredible than I thought it would be! You've really outdone yourself this time!
YOOOOO LAST LIFE AND CRANE WIVES?? OUHGOGUGJFHFUF YESSSSS
I love how violently joel repeatedly rips scott apart with an axe at 38
OMG, THE LYRICS MATCH SO WELL
- "Every word i say it's kindling" for Lizzie's boogey kill because she lied to pearl and scott
- "Won't you stay with me, my darling", both on the most heartbreaking betrayals?!!
- "Down, Down, Down", and the footage of Skizz falling down, down down xD
- "The Devil's after both of us" - both Tango and BigB are seen blowing up!
INSANE ANIMATION, I'M IN LOVE
This was amazing!!
I loved how the boogeyman curse was displayed, and the deaths, it was great! I loved the way the lyrics fit so well, especially when BigB killed Cleo.
I also adored how the purple eyes appeared during Scott’s death. Since it was a watcher kill, as Grian did the /kill, and he’s kinda a watcher
That last thing I noted as such in my log of events on the server. Instead of giving the credit to Grian, I instead set the credit to "Watcher 3", a little callback to EVO.
I quite like the way the boogieman curse is almost sentient in this
I’m surprised just how much art and music there is for the “Life” series. I guess it’s style of improvised stories through the rules of betrayal appeals to people
The way skizz falls, so graceful. Makes sense, right after he respawned he was praising the trap and its creator. Skizz is just a wholesome man with little to no vengeance in him. If someone were to fall with grace it would be skizz
Then you compare it to Scott's boogeyman kill, where a surprise attack knocks someone who thought he won off into HIS OWN TRAP in HIS OWN HOUSE peak animation
If I got a brain cell for every time I watched this, I would be the smartest man alive.
You don’t know how much it hurt me when BigB killed Cleo.
Animation is awesome though
ive watched this animatic at least a dozen times already its just so incredibly good. the song is one of my favorites already, but so many of these moments are summed up yet so intense and not skipped over at all. bigb killing cleo and tangos rage are two of my absolute favorites in here, theyre SO intense and so so good
I think it's just culture for MCYT fans to routinely come back to this video every once in a while
I love how at 2:02 the TNT Minecraft is actually like dynamite because it’s animated like real dynamite and how it kinda sizzles and stuff before it explodes.
edit: its called a FUSE
I love how the way the boogey man is chosen is just some kind of mist that just gives a sudden intent to kill
Great work Chris! I love how at 2:01 with the "devils after both of us" line suits the bit perfectly, for Martyn being the boogeyman, and killing both BigB and Tango, as if Martyn is the devil and the other two are the people whom the devil is after.
I have to say, the Etho > Scar fishing pole death has to be one of the coolest, but I wish that the Ghast farm death and fight were included, which got Grian to red initially. Other than that tiny detail, your art is incredible and you really showed nearly every part of the Last Life SMP
I would've loved to include all the deaths from Last Life, but I made the parameter on myself to just focus on the Boogeyman Curse (since that's what the song and animation's themeings are centralized on). :)
Wow, I didn’t completely notice, but that’s really cool how you themed that! Once again, your artstyle and animation and everything is so amazing and pretty!
This is insane, I've probably watched this like 20 times now, It's just so pretty and I'm a sucker for The Crane Wives. Incredible, Breathtaking, Brilliant
This is absolutely gorgeous Chris, well done!
I don't know if anyone saw this but at 2:11 you can see an eye in the moon....
This makes the last lifers look way cooler than they actually are
Excitedddd!!!
As usual, YOU HAVE DELIVERED! Oh my god, each scene just exhibited so much emotion that it felt like I was reliving the time when I watched the actual things unfold. Also I can't thank you enough because this just portrayed perfectly how each scenario went in my head; the drama, the betrayal, and my personal favorite, the anger so amazingly presented during Tango's part. It's just, you can feel in those few seconds how much rage and hurt coursed through him. UGH I love it, I love everything!!
Still a year later it’s still my favourite life animation and I still love how the curse it like it’s own thing that wanders the servers to find its next host and the way you animated it is soo good and how their eyes get filled with the look of evil it’s just soo good
1:24 that mumbos kill is the best thing i have seen
This was incredible!! I love the way the boogie was depicted as this little spirit that comes and infects people to kill! The colors and emotions and everything! Amazing job Chris!!
0:43 Ren and Martyn are unbelievably wholesome in your style-
0:41 I love how Lizzie had her fingers crossed behind her back which means that whatever she says or promises aren't true
I want an entire series that looks like this with all their voices. Nay, I need it!
