I can't really explain why, but this gem made my whole childhood a blast. Can't believe I'm looking back at this 9 years ago now and getting motivated again. Thanks man.
I've been back here for the show and the music too many times. If I had to change something in my life. I wouldn't change finding this all those years ago for anything
Recently reunited with some of my old friends in 3rd grade and brought me back to this masterpiece. Stickpage was a huge part of my childhood and I can't believe it's been more than a decade already.
The most underrated part of this video is how much better of an animator Kensei became as he progressed through this work. You can literally see his growth through the video. Or maybe this was his comeback to animating and he was literally Breaking Rust.
Damn I had 8 years when I saw this video for the first time and it was the coolest thing i've ever seen. Now i'm 20 and I can see why I thought that hahahahahahaha
Revisiting, in 5 days it'll be this video's 12 year anniversary. Just wanna say this video has inspired me deeply throughout my entire life. Thank you, Kensei Thomas. You've made us all smile, even though it was only this one video.
I remember watching this for the first time on Stickpage with my best friend when we were 14. It's been 9 years since then and every time I come back and watch this I understand it a little bit more. Thank you, Kensei, for making something that has inspired thousands of people for over 9 years. Please know you have made such a huge difference in so many people's lives and gave them hope and strength when they had none of their own to give. You were the light during all of our darkness.
Kensei, this was without doubt the best animation I had ever seen. Even with my troubled life in the difficult moments of life, I look to the sky and I think this animation and messages contained therein, remember the hope and brightness in my eyes when I saw her for the first time, and rebuild my strength, my hope gathers momentum, and I see a light at the end of it, I can see a new opportunity, a way to win the tough fights. I can only say one thing, in all the thousands of words I wanted to say to you, wherever you are Kensei, thanks.
Thanks a lot , this comment means so much to me ! : ) I'm glad this could help you, I have an instagram now where I'll post links to my newest animations ! it's @kenseithomas
Even after so many years, I can hardly forget an animation with a song as amazing as this. Though the lesson behind it that it tries to teach you is a lot easier said than done...
IMO the most timeless works of art are those which tell the deeper truths within humanity and the human experience. This animation does just that. So even after more than a decade, this animation still holds up.
This was the first ever stick fight animation I watched when I was a kid. I'm still shocked how much people's animation has improved over time and how big the community became. Thank you everyone for creating the stepping stones for the new animatiors.
I can’t believe I found this again after 9 years. This song was a major part of my childhood, and I had simply forgotten the name. I gave up looking for it long ago.
When I watched this, I was in a dark place, but after watching this and my want to create something, I decided to become and artist and Animator, and create beautiful art like this, thank you for this man.
Seriously I’ve been watching this video since 2013 when I saw it on stickpage. Now I come back to the original on RUclips almost regularly for the same feeling of inspirado that I got when I was 13.
I am so glad to find original animation I feel sorry that so many people stole this animation This has been my favirote for a long time, and reading the description makes it so much better. Plus it's better than the other ones better HD
Sou um brasileiro qualquer que via essa animação e outras, eu simplesmente amo ela, me traz uma paz e nostalgia, desejo parabéns ao criador, mesmo que ele não veja essa mensagem.

👏👏 Noice! 👏👏
First watched this like 3 years ago and to this day it's the best stickman animation I've seen
What about Alan Becker?!
i love the small detail in 2:38 where both stick figures line up (almost) perfectly with the "暗" and "光"
"暗" = darkness
"光" = light
MY CHILDHOOD ! Thank you Sir Kensei for this masterpiece ,its really motivated me to join drawing and art community back when i was a kid
Even after so many years, I can hardly forget an animation with a song as amazing as this.
Though the lesson behind it that it tries to teach you is a lot easier said than done...
i’m here in 2023..
Here in 2024 👍

Looking back, after doing so much research and reflection, I think this may be the most important stick animation in history.
I remember when I was younger, I would watch this everyday.
Finally not an old video where someone comments 'Anyone here in 2024?'
This is my no. 1 fav. Stick fight of all time, I've watched this for like hundreds Times now since I was a kid.
ikr, the first time i watched when im also a kid and it's still my fav.
This is so nostalgia so much memories
wow didn't know I'd still be comimg back to this anim. such a throwback during the day, you inspired a lot of us man and thanks for this truly
I remember watching this in the family computer
11 years later its still a gem inside dirt
IMO the most timeless works of art are those which tell the deeper truths within humanity and the human experience. This animation does just that. So even after more than a decade, this animation still holds up.
Yeah!! It was made with flash animation
8 years later
*THIS STILL SLAPS MY DUDE*

This made my day the desc made me a true guy that is living normally that doest enlighted his light rn.
Literally my all time favorite Stick men fight animation
Classic

The nostalgia man wow
Back for my annual watch for some nostalgia
Watched this 6 years ago and It's still my favourite stick fight.

Honestly, i think the sync with the music is the best part about this animation
Very underated comment, I agree
Even after 5 years I can’t forget this video
It first came out 8 years ago.

This is timeless. I come back to this every now and then, and idk how many times I've done so
This was one of the things that shaped my childhood, and I'm proud of that.
11 years ago sounds like a lot but im still the same, thanks to this animator now im fascinated in stick animations to this day

Old but gold.
This shit was my childhood man - thanks for making this all those years ago
You are amazing thank You for this Kensei
Seriously I’ve been watching this video since 2013 when I saw it on stickpage. Now I come back to the original on RUclips almost regularly for the same feeling of inspirado that I got when I was 13.
You are a great part of my childhood
This is amazing...
Man, I'm so greatful for this animation
Amazing my black
I am so glad to find original animation I feel sorry that so many people stole this animation This has been my favirote for a long time, and reading the description makes it so much better. Plus it's better than the other ones better HD
Am I the only to to notice the Gurren Lagann quotes at 2:12? They go really well with this, amazing touch
Why. Why is this SO UNDERRATED?????
I hope someday this video becomes one of these what appears in everyone recommendatios every 2 years
Still in 2021 I remember this, this is better then some current animations, imagine if this was made in 2021

This is honestly so great
This has always been an amazing animation and also will be I just wished more people watched this and subscribed cus it is really cool.
I’m just now realizing with the amount of direct strikes the black stickman didn’t deserve that comeback moment.
After 8 Years, Still my favorite Stickman fight! The music, the synchronization, the effects. Just marvelous!
I remember watching it in 2011 or 2012, i can't remember very well
but it was so good the first time
I remember finding this originally on stickpage... miss those simple days
Good luck in the future,
