oh wow thank u all so much for 100k views and all the sweet comments for this video !!! 💖💖💖 heres a few interesting (?) tidbits about it: - the wild thing is i was sick for about a week in the process of making this and my hazy mind made me second guess the whole door memory concept and i was really close to scrapping the whole thing ngl -the final playtimes over part (6:29) represents what actually happened in the memory without the present K Howard to comfort her past selves 😔🤙🏾 -for that same scene above, i originally had k howard getting dragged down and across the hallway floor by the pink hands but i scrapped it cus shes been thru enough already (maybe ill bring it to life another time who knows) -she deserved way better thats it
The 16th century had an appalling view of consent. And it didn't help that she was under a sociopathic narcissist who just had to get whatever he wanted immediately. This is a great video. Thanks for making it.
definicious the 6:29 actually broke my heart so much since it just struck me how alone Kitty Howard is, to the point that the only person who comforted her is her future self.
It's also really sad when you realize that every time she walks out is when she is r*ped by the men she thought loved her. (Others were coercion of her as a kid, but Thomas specifically was straight up r*pe if you look at the history)
You know the saying "you get your memories when you die" maybe this was hers as she was being beheaded, her "life flashed before he eyes"? I dunno that was my interpretation of it
I love how as the song progresses, Katherine gets less enthusiastic while doing her little dance. it’s devastating because it captures the fact that these men that she trusted was slowly sucking the joy out of her life.
Also a small reference to the live performances! K Howard gets less enthusiastic and more bored as the song goes on, and literally cries at the end. #SaveKatherineHoward!
How small Katherine looks really truly makes it hit harder, most other animatics of this song haven't portrayed her this young, but she literally was. Amazing job.
it seems like the more comments that say 'most animatics forget to show her as young,' the less animators forget. I feel like at this point I've seen more who make a point of her age, just as time goes on they've overwhelmed the early versions that neglected it
@@rosep5899 I did one like that, although it flickers out at henry because the portrait i was basing her off was taken around then. ruclips.net/video/wy6OPs7psTE/видео.html
Fun fact: everyone in England was creeped out by Henry VIII marrying Katherine Howard because she was 17 and he was 48. They just couldn't do anything about it because Henry was the king. So yeah sleazy is definitely the right word. Poor girl
I love how you actually portrayed how young she was at the time. I love all the animatics made but it makes me kinda sad when people make her look like she was already an adult when sadly she wasn’t.
Seeing this animatic make me realize how much darker this song is than it's already now. Realizing how Kathrine all those "relationship" are toxic. Such a sweet innocent girl get taken advantage of throughout her entire life.
which goes into her outfit and personality in the musical, she’s the dominatrix of the group. Portrayed as the older sister of the Six, she is cause she grew up quick despite dying at 19.
In the part of the song where it's talking about Thomas, it says 'the friend I need' and 'no chemistry' and the fact that she was beheaded for Thomas taking advantage of her when she clearly didn't see him as anything more than a friend and thought that he was genuinely there for her and not going to take advantage of her breaks my heart.
Eight dislikes. Well,since Henry was known as "Henry the eighth",I'm pretty sure it's obvious who's hating on this. EDIT: The more the comment lives,the more the joke fails me o no
yo i know that everyone else is praising it but seriously, the idea of howard watching her past self make those choices (or be forced to make them) is incredible and u are so creative & talented like wtf also congrats on 14k!!
her face whenever she leaves the room of her past, and her caring and being okay with her younger self even when she knows what's gonna happen. and the ending of them taking her choker as a symbol of them taking her life. this is such a beautiful animatic, it was right to subscribe to you :>
Fun fact: Anne Boleyn got beheaded by a skilled french swordsman, with a sharp sword. So she died quickly and painlessly. While Katherine got beheaded by someone who wasn't skilled. Also, she didn't get a sharp sword, she got a shit axe. I'm not sure if it's true but what they thought us is that her head came off after lots of whacking the rusty axe, you can't even imagine the pain. She took that crap after practicing. She requested for a block so she could practice resting her head on it, that was all she did while waiting for her death on the day of the execution.
@@hi-fw4lm (and also @Hi Guys.) This is not true. None of the contemporary reports mention anything about the axe hitting her body or the executioner taking several attempts to sever her head. Documentations, such as the one by merchant Ottwell Johnson (who was present at the beheading), speak only of Catherine's bravery and how she made a 'most godly and Christian end'. If the execution had been botched, it would have been explicitly mentioned in accounts of the time - as in records of beheadings which we do know were not carried out smoothly, it is made very clear. I've seen so many people comment this; I'm not sure where this information is coming from. As for the detail about her practising putting her head on the block, from what we know that is true. It comes from a pretty reliable chronicler of the 1500s, Imperial ambassador Eustace Chapuys.

@@somebody3487 if that's true then at least we know that Catherine didn't suffer as much. Whatever the truth is I'm just glad that because of this musical more people are revisiting their story. Thanks for the clarification m8
Actually, the axe got lodged into her back, but it didn't kill her. After a long time trying to get it out, then came the wacking. At least that's what I learned.
I love how throughout she slowly gets more tired of all their words and how her current self looks so worried for her past self I think this actually made me cry. Thanks for uploading, I think this is my fave all you wanna do animatic yet! :)
when I first heard the song I didn't like how it just stops abruptly, but now I think it just ends like that because of how abruptly K Howard's life ended (She died when she was 19)
I love how you represent all of Katherines past selves as children??? Because everyone seems to forget that she was little. She married Henry when she was 16, and was barely an adult (19) when she died. She wasn't just a child with Henry Manox. She was a child with ALL of these men. They took advantage of a underage girl. I seriously feel for her.
She was a little girl not only in age but in stature - she was only about five feet tall. Next to the huge bloated Henry she must have looked like a tiny doll. Poor girl
I love so much that she looked at her past self in that situation, regretting what she did and trying to help her old self. It changed my point of view of this song. Edit: I would say thanks for the likes and heart, but that just makes the comment worse.
Jesus Christ this song is just so clever. On the surface, it's a bop, and we wanna jam along to it just as Katherine, but it's only once we really listen we understand what's going on, just as when she really thought about it she realised what was happening. She was innocent, all she wanted was guidance and all she got was abuse. The bit with the instruments was particularly sooooo awfully clever. Just by showing them being unused, along with her singing about how much they did, we know exactly what's happening. I love that the men are only silhouettes too. They aren't men, they're not even human, they were monsters.
This song is hinting at the fact she was “pretty “ and a lot of guys would try to get close to her to....you know “bird and the bees me” but she met guys she thought she could trust but each time they just used her...she just wanted a friend and they just...at that time of age women ( or girls ) didn’t have the right to say “no” all they could do is not talk to guys ( which was impossible to ) or marry them or do what THEY wanted..same it goes with any minority really...the little guys do what the majority want...at lest it’s better now...I wish she was born in this day of age...I understand her so much...I am sorry she had to go threw that...I wish I could give her a hug..
@@notavemo9291 major as in adult to minor as in child, C to D as in the proximity of how close those notes are to eachother and uhh yeah. If you have a dirtier mind you could probably conjure up an innuendo to figuratively catch a case, but that's my interpretation. Don't need COPPA to come for me 😂
I got blowing the flute(dick),plucked my strings all the way to g(fingering,the g spot), major to minor, c ( child/clit) to d (dick) but it took the other comments to make me realise that there were innuendos *everywhere* . Dynamics(bodies moving), strumming the lute(fingering), striking the chords (I’m not sure but someone suggested this meant spanking), favourite “quill” (dick) , my wrist was so tired (handjob), I’m pretty sure that’s all I can think of at the moment. Man, the writer of this song is Shakespeare,second person to slip dick jokes in a sentence, and have it make sense.
So it seems someone else got the second meaning behind the " he even let me use "his favorite quill" ". God there's second meaning scattered throught out the songs.
(Big rant, really sorry, got angry) Oh my gosh I am livid now. She was literally older than one of her stepdaughters, and Henry was like 30 years older than she was. In the times she met Elizabeth she found companionship in a girl who was 7, cause she was also basically a kid. This animatic just highlights that in a way I hadn't realized when just listening to it and it makes me absolutely sick that this happened. I know, "the times were different", but she was a kid. Historians cant even place how old she was when she was murdered, the lowest I saw was 17, and the highest being 25. And then I see all these historical articles being like "Vixen or Victim" and i just got so angry. Apparently she got away from the guards for a few seconds and went screaming towards the king begging for mercy, and he's just a monster who I don't think cared about anyone, especially not these women. This is the song that made me realize that when we talk about this story in school, we should talk about the women that put up with him, or he threw away or murdered before we even mention him.
Molly Simpson You are so right! I hate how history teachers always talk about Henry first, like my teacher barely even talked about the girls whose lives he ruined or ended. They should definitely be learned about more.
esp the fact that she didn't get a skilled swordsman like Anne did, she got a shitty, dull axe, that took several hits to her neck and back before it actually killed her. imagine the amount of fucking pain she must've been in. she deserved none of what she got.
@@catboydeathgrips That bits not true. Katherine was executed quickly and cleanly. You're thinking of Mary Queen of Scots and Margaret Countess of Salisbury, whose executions took a couple of chops. Katherine's was over with one chop - the only thing in the poor girl's life that went right
I love how you made the age difference obvious and the hands were really cool I think Katherine was a beautiful young girl who was taken advantage of but didn’t exactly understand at the time, I mean, 13?! Like that’s young, she didn’t really deserve what happened to her
It’s probably just me overthinking but in the last scenes with the red hands She looks like she is being dragged away to be beheaded and it hurtss mee You are so talented and creative! Whoop
I love how you did it to how she just wanted her younger self to realize that what they were doing wasn’t always great. How she was played just for her body... and how she actually thought they genuinely loved her, poor her...
I literally watched the wip for this just today. Honestly tho this is great. The dark bodies of the men, and Howard literally talking to herself in the "He just cares so much" Plus, her progressively getting more tired and defeated looking as each guy goes by Also Henry's shadow looks... interesting
6:22 is my fav part because of the quote “bite my lip and pull my hair as you tell me I’m the fairest of the fair” it has some inside of how her life is
I just realized that when she says that "playtimes over" that's when the relationship ended and at the end when "playtimes over" it could be talking about how she got beheaded..??😳🤔
Reply to Awkward Fishy: some of my old drama friends think “play time’s over” can mean either the fun in bed was over after each guy got what he wanted, or it can mean how she had to grow up so quickly since her childhood innocence ended at 13 when she was first raped.
I love how you have Cathrin taking care of younger her. Like stroking her younger selfs hair and re stringing her corset. It feels like she knows it’s how it is and that’s all she can do to help herself.
I love how as the song progresses, catherine gets less enthusiastic while doing her little dance. it’s devastating because it captures the fact that these men that she trusted was slowly.
the thing that hits me most about this song is how it doesn’t have a noticeable climax. unlike in “Heart of Stone,” where it climaxes after the “soon i’ll have to go, i’ll never see him grow” part. in this song, i think the lack of climax and the repetitive melodic lines go together with katherine’s life - how every relationship she had was just men wanting her for sex, and how that was also the thing that screwed her over in the end, even if she didn’t want that. and that hits me so hard.
I love that you added two more hands grabbing her after each man betraying her. It shows that even though they’re physically gone from her life, the memory of them is still holding Katherine back.
I've seen many animatics of this song but this strikes me as the first one to fully express Katherine's psychology, not diminish her abuse, take advantage of the songs tone and double entendres without being raunchy... overall a sensitive take. Bravo.
I just wanted to say that I loved everything abiut this. The artstyle, the story. You are such an amazing artist and an idea about older Catherine supporting her younger versions, symbolizing her reflections about the situation is so creative. Contiune your work because it's absolutely stunning♥️
This is one of the best animations for this song. period. The artist shows how young Katherine really is and I love how she shows the reality of it all... :(
Fun Fact! When Katherine. H was beheaded, Henry didn't call a professional swordsman. Instead, he got one of his friends drunk and got him to behead her. The beheading took an hour or more because he started at the back, then scraping in multiple times to her head, finally chopping it off successfully for the 5th try! 👏
I love how the longer we get into the song, more hands surround her and are trying to pull her in. The emotion you captured with this animatic is amazingly strong and deep aaaaaaaaa!! :d we luv u queen
This is pure art. From the little dance she does during the chorus, to her talking and taking care of her past selves, it’s all so heart wrenchingly beautiful. This is my favorite song from SIX, for many reasons, and but there’s one reason in particular... when she realizes she was used for the fourth time ( 5:51 to the end). It’s always been one of the most powerful moments to me, cause you can hear all the anger, pain, regret, exhaustion, and heartache in her voice. And the way you portrayed that, with the static/ darkness ( although I like to imagine it as all her emotions) consuming her, gave me chills. Amazing job!
Have you heard the live versions of the song? The emotion her actresses add to the number is so hearthwrenching! Deffinitely one of my favorite parts of the show!
salem bn salem bn I’m going to have Yo go listen to the live recording. And you’re right, definitely one of the most heart wrenching moments. Edit: so. I just listened to the live recording. I’m officially torn to pieces. That was beautifully heart wrenching! That ending, the emotion and anger in her voice.. thank you so much for suggesting I listen to the live recording, I love this song even more!
I'm so glad for how you and other animators have given this song the depth it has in Catherine's history of sexual abuse. You did a great job making an original portrayal with Catherine going through doors of her past and interacting and comforting her younger selves. I especially like the detail you gave in the younger Catherines (13 and young teen! Catherine), who despite believing their relationship with an older man was 'genuine' and based on love, they still had a flash of discomfort and shock (0:33 and 2:17) because they were being preyed upon/forced into a sexual act. It really helped show that Catherine was a child at the time who was used by older men and that it wasn't love that was her first feeling that built her relationship with her most obvious abusers. It was fear.
Can we just appreciate the lyrics tho " Went from *major* to *minor* " " He even let me use his *favorite quill* " " Spilled *ink all over the desk* " Like damn, the lyrics are really good
I love the little detail at 0:08 where Anne is doing the face she did in the "Don't Lose Ur Head" animatic when she was saying "or go to hell". I like to think that she's going like "Mate, go to hell." XDD
i can never get over one line, specifically about thomas: 'he says we have this connection...' it's like she's realizing that they just want the same thing from her. she thought he was just a friend, something she desperately needed in her life. she got tired of being used as an object, she saw thomas as an escape route, someone she could count on to have her back. it makes me feel even worse, because katherine only wanted someone to see her as a person, not some object only used to pleasure yourself.
I just realized something: the final kiss sounds much higher pitched and almost like a pair of scissors snipping, a possible nod to her beheading. Either that or im crazy
This hurt so much. (You did such a good job!) It shows how people who get victimized at a young age become targets because they get used to being treated like trash and they don’t defend themselves against abuse.
After listening to this for the millionth time, I just realized. The "13 going on 30" line is disturbing enough, but somehow it manages to get even worse when you realize she never really made it to "going on 30"...
The way you show the lute unplayed and flute falling off the table when she sings about "playing" them... Very clever. I've been silently getting annoyed at animatics where they're just wholesomely playing the instruments - read between the lines!
I really like how the style is Katherine is visiting her memories and sort of trying to convince herself that at least one relationship will work out but none of them do
oh wow thank u all so much for 100k views and all the sweet comments for this video !!! 💖💖💖
heres a few interesting (?) tidbits about it:
- the wild thing is i was sick for about a week in the process of making this and my hazy mind made me second guess the whole door memory concept and i was really close to scrapping the whole thing ngl
-the final playtimes over part (6:29) represents what actually happened in the memory without the present K Howard to comfort her past selves 😔🤙🏾
-for that same scene above, i originally had k howard getting dragged down and across the hallway floor by the pink hands but i scrapped it cus shes been thru enough already (maybe ill bring it to life another time who knows)

when I first heard the song I didn't like how it just stops abruptly, but now I think it just ends like that because of how abruptly K Howard's life ended (She died when she was 19)
@@otome2236 yeah it's so sad
QRll im so dumb. i read this as when i first heard this song i didn’t like how it made me burp...
Shes so cute here but like.. agg my heart nooooo.
In addition, as a former victim, those hands.
Ooo god that brings back some real Vietnam flashbacks

YESS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS YOUR STYLE IS THE CUTEST
Right?? I was hoping they would do this song too 😄
Adorable artstyle for the most depressing song on the album. (Jane and Cat Parr were tragic and sad, but Cat Howard is just full on depressing)
I love how you represent all of Katherines past selves as children??? Because everyone seems to forget that she was little. She married Henry when she was 16, and was barely an adult (19) when she died. She wasn't just a child with Henry Manox. She was a child with ALL of these men. They took advantage of a underage girl. I seriously feel for her.
She was a little girl not only in age but in stature - she was only about five feet tall. Next to the huge bloated Henry she must have looked like a tiny doll. Poor girl
the way you portray her as an actual child, who she was, shows how disgusting and creepy were these guys, and how horribly used she was. amazing job!
Ik, I feel so bad for her
I love so much that she looked at her past self in that situation, regretting what she did and trying to help her old self. It changed my point of view of this song.
Edit: I would say thanks for the likes and heart, but that just makes the comment worse.
Jesus Christ this song is just so clever. On the surface, it's a bop, and we wanna jam along to it just as Katherine, but it's only once we really listen we understand what's going on, just as when she really thought about it she realised what was happening. She was innocent, all she wanted was guidance and all she got was abuse. The bit with the instruments was particularly sooooo awfully clever. Just by showing them being unused, along with her singing about how much they did, we know exactly what's happening. I love that the men are only silhouettes too. They aren't men, they're not even human, they were monsters.
Ikr? "Blowing the flute" we know what really happened
This song is hinting at the fact she was “pretty “ and a lot of guys would try to get close to her to....you know “bird and the bees me” but she met guys she thought she could trust but each time they just used her...she just wanted a friend and they just...at that time of age women ( or girls ) didn’t have the right to say “no” all they could do is not talk to guys ( which was impossible to ) or marry them or do what THEY wanted..same it goes with any minority really...the little guys do what the majority want...at lest it’s better now...I wish she was born in this day of age...I understand her so much...I am sorry she had to go threw that...I wish I could give her a hug..
Francis Griffith we need to find a way to revive em all and bring them here to modern day.
Sparkle8205 and then we need to revive Henry and give him the treatment he gave them
Me: singing "Major to minor C to D" but catching onto literally every other innuendo and being disgusted
Me, almost 3 months later: yOU WHAT
Same
Please explain I still don't get it
@@notavemo9291 major as in adult to minor as in child, C to D as in the proximity of how close those notes are to eachother and uhh yeah. If you have a dirtier mind you could probably conjure up an innuendo to figuratively catch a case, but that's my interpretation. Don't need COPPA to come for me 😂
Mayday Janette WHAT? I get that the song has a lot of not-so-subtle innuendos. But still, WHAT? WTF?
I got blowing the flute(dick),plucked my strings all the way to g(fingering,the g spot), major to minor, c ( child/clit) to d (dick) but it took the other comments to make me realise that there were innuendos *everywhere* . Dynamics(bodies moving), strumming the lute(fingering), striking the chords (I’m not sure but someone suggested this meant spanking), favourite “quill” (dick) , my wrist was so tired (handjob), I’m pretty sure that’s all I can think of at the moment. Man, the writer of this song is Shakespeare,second person to slip dick jokes in a sentence, and have it make sense.
So it seems someone else got the second meaning behind the " he even let me use "his favorite quill" ". God there's second meaning scattered throught out the songs.
It's even worse when you get all the meanings...
spilled ink all over the parchment, my wrist was so tired
*ohshit*
I laughed so hard at that part 😂
@@xxqueenxx5808 why? that's not funny.
YESSS MY FAVE
I love how you made the age difference so evident, and how she was talking to her past self, even though it’s making me cry
(Big rant, really sorry, got angry)
Oh my gosh I am livid now. She was literally older than one of her stepdaughters, and Henry was like 30 years older than she was. In the times she met Elizabeth she found companionship in a girl who was 7, cause she was also basically a kid. This animatic just highlights that in a way I hadn't realized when just listening to it and it makes me absolutely sick that this happened. I know, "the times were different", but she was a kid. Historians cant even place how old she was when she was murdered, the lowest I saw was 17, and the highest being 25. And then I see all these historical articles being like "Vixen or Victim" and i just got so angry. Apparently she got away from the guards for a few seconds and went screaming towards the king begging for mercy, and he's just a monster who I don't think cared about anyone, especially not these women.
This is the song that made me realize that when we talk about this story in school, we should talk about the women that put up with him, or he threw away or murdered before we even mention him.
_underrated comment_
Molly Simpson You are so right! I hate how history teachers always talk about Henry first, like my teacher barely even talked about the girls whose lives he ruined or ended. They should definitely be learned about more.
esp the fact that she didn't get a skilled swordsman like Anne did, she got a shitty, dull axe, that took several hits to her neck and back before it actually killed her. imagine the amount of fucking pain she must've been in.
she deserved none of what she got.
@@catboydeathgrips That bits not true. Katherine was executed quickly and cleanly. You're thinking of Mary Queen of Scots and Margaret Countess of Salisbury, whose executions took a couple of chops. Katherine's was over with one chop - the only thing in the poor girl's life that went right
ChooseYour Poison I read somewhere that actually the first time it hit her in her back, but idk if it’s true
No one:

no, she’s an 11
I'd agree that she's 10, but the other Queens are also 10s. In every iteration, they're all beautiful
I know it's just a joke btw. JS.

I love how you made the age difference obvious and the hands were really cool
I think Katherine was a beautiful young girl who was taken advantage of but didn’t exactly understand at the time, I mean, 13?! Like that’s young, she didn’t really deserve what happened to her
FireWolf Mannox’s grooming and abuse apparently went from when she was *5* to when she was 13

Last time I was this early cathrine of Aragon was still queen
It’s probably just me overthinking but in the last scenes with the red hands
She looks like she is being dragged away to be beheaded and it hurtss mee
You are so talented and creative! Whoop
I love how you did it to how she just wanted her younger self to realize that what they were doing wasn’t always great. How she was played just for her body... and how she actually thought they genuinely loved her, poor her...
the line: "the friend for me" really shows that she only wsnted someone who understands/respects her
Nobody:
Not Even *ANYONE IN THE WORLD:*
Captions: *AND THERE'S NOTHING MORE TO IT, YOU JUST GOT UM, SOME CHEESE DIP*
Ah man this song would be way less upsetting if it was about cheese dip
0:39 did I hear that right? Cause I head *FREAKING THIRTEEEN!*
Yeah. Pretty fucked up.
@@MeowMeowMeowX3333 agreed. VERY fucked up.
fun fact!
he was actually in his late 30s rather than being 23
allyy 36 to be exact I believe
It was likely molestation
I literally watched the wip for this just today. Honestly tho this is great. The dark bodies of the men, and Howard literally talking to herself in the "He just cares so much"
Plus, her progressively getting more tired and defeated looking as each guy goes by
Also Henry's shadow looks... interesting
6:22 is my fav part because of the quote “bite my lip and pull my hair as you tell me I’m the fairest of the fair” it has some inside of how her life is
Katherine becomes less enthusiastic per verse. This displays that each man is slowly sucking away her happiness.
When Howard's hair is down she kind of looks like Angelica Schuyler
I just realized that when she says that "playtimes over" that's when the relationship ended and at the end when "playtimes over" it could be talking about how she got beheaded..??😳🤔
beheaded
@@roessigma7395 omg sorry I wasn't thinking and typed hung instead of beheaded 😅
Reply to Awkward Fishy: some of my old drama friends think “play time’s over” can mean either the fun in bed was over after each guy got what he wanted, or it can mean how she had to grow up so quickly since her childhood innocence ended at 13 when she was first raped.
Okay ouch I didn’t ask my heart to be broken this early in the morning
the song: tall, dark sexy mannox
subtitles: wood, duck, sexy magnets
I love how you have Cathrin taking care of younger her. Like stroking her younger selfs hair and re stringing her corset. It feels like she knows it’s how it is and that’s all she can do to help herself.
I love how as the song progresses, catherine gets less enthusiastic while doing her little dance. it’s devastating because it captures the fact that these men that she trusted was slowly.
the thing that hits me most about this song is how it doesn’t have a noticeable climax. unlike in “Heart of Stone,” where it climaxes after the “soon i’ll have to go, i’ll never see him grow” part. in this song, i think the lack of climax and the repetitive melodic lines go together with katherine’s life - how every relationship she had was just men wanting her for sex, and how that was also the thing that screwed her over in the end, even if she didn’t want that.
and that hits me so hard.
the way her and her younger self were like "I get you and you get me!" was so adorableeeee
I love that you added two more hands grabbing her after each man betraying her. It shows that even though they’re physically gone from her life, the memory of them is still holding Katherine back.
I've seen many animatics of this song but this strikes me as the first one to fully express Katherine's psychology, not diminish her abuse, take advantage of the songs tone and double entendres without being raunchy... overall a sensitive take. Bravo.
PLAYTIMES OVER
guess who just realized that meant her childhood was over after the men took her innocence?!?!?!?
Jesus I'm dumb
Geesus*
@@thealtpandapng what? isn't it 'jesus' lmao
Personally I feel like”play times over” shows how she was forced to grow up due to trauma at such a young age
Exactly some kids deal with violence or death of friends, but poor Kathrine dealt with sex and possibly r@pe
it never really stuck out she was still a child with frances omg
I just wanted to say that I loved everything abiut this. The artstyle, the story. You are such an amazing artist and an idea about older Catherine supporting her younger versions, symbolizing her reflections about the situation is so creative. Contiune your work because it's absolutely stunning♥️
This is one of the best animations for this song. period. The artist shows how young Katherine really is and I love how she shows the reality of it all... :(
(0:37) The nervousness, it's hilariously realistic, and I love it!
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR 20 YEARS AND I'M 14
M a t h s
I really like how you portray the hands touching her and she tries to shrug them off but they keep coming back
Fun Fact! When Katherine. H was beheaded, Henry didn't call a professional swordsman. Instead, he got one of his friends drunk and got him to behead her. The beheading took an hour or more because he started at the back, then scraping in multiple times to her head, finally chopping it off successfully for the 5th try! 👏
The others in the back when she says 'i think we can all agree im the 10 amongst these 3s' is priceless
The dislikes are Tall, Large Henry the Eighth’s alt. accounts.

As sad as the song is, kate's dejected "wooh" will never fail to make me laugh. XD
Really like how the instruments went ignored. Genuinely made me clench up out of sorrow
I love how the longer we get into the song, more hands surround her and are trying to pull her in.
The emotion you captured with this animatic is amazingly strong and deep aaaaaaaaa!! :d we luv u queen
This is pure art. From the little dance she does during the chorus, to her talking and taking care of her past selves, it’s all so heart wrenchingly beautiful. This is my favorite song from SIX, for many reasons, and but there’s one reason in particular... when she realizes she was used for the fourth time ( 5:51 to the end). It’s always been one of the most powerful moments to me, cause you can hear all the anger, pain, regret, exhaustion, and heartache in her voice. And the way you portrayed that, with the static/ darkness ( although I like to imagine it as all her emotions) consuming her, gave me chills. Amazing job!
Have you heard the live versions of the song? The emotion her actresses add to the number is so hearthwrenching! Deffinitely one of my favorite parts of the show!
salem bn salem bn I’m going to have Yo go listen to the live recording. And you’re right, definitely one of the most heart wrenching moments.
Edit: so. I just listened to the live recording. I’m officially torn to pieces. That was beautifully heart wrenching! That ending, the emotion and anger in her voice.. thank you so much for suggesting I listen to the live recording, I love this song even more!
I'm so glad for how you and other animators have given this song the depth it has in Catherine's history of sexual abuse. You did a great job making an original portrayal with Catherine going through doors of her past and interacting and comforting her younger selves. I especially like the detail you gave in the younger Catherines (13 and young teen! Catherine), who despite believing their relationship with an older man was 'genuine' and based on love, they still had a flash of discomfort and shock (0:33 and 2:17) because they were being preyed upon/forced into a sexual act. It really helped show that Catherine was a child at the time who was used by older men and that it wasn't love that was her first feeling that built her relationship with her most obvious abusers.
It was fear.
I love how young you make her so we really know how monstrous these men were
Your style never ceases to impress me, and everyframe is so detailed.
I love that adult K doesn’t really stop anything, just provide moral support and tells the story. Like, “I can’t do anything for you, I’m sorry.”
Can we just appreciate the lyrics tho
" Went from *major* to *minor* "
" He even let me use his *favorite quill* "
" Spilled *ink all over the desk* "
Like damn, the lyrics are really good
I love the little detail at 0:08 where Anne is doing the face she did in the "Don't Lose Ur Head" animatic when she was saying "or go to hell". I like to think that she's going like "Mate, go to hell." XDD
i can never get over one line, specifically about thomas:
'he says we have this connection...'
it's like she's realizing that they just want the same thing from her. she thought he was just a friend, something she desperately needed in her life.
she got tired of being used as an object, she saw thomas as an escape route, someone she could count on to have her back.
it makes me feel even worse, because katherine only wanted someone to see her as a person, not some object only used to pleasure yourself.
Katherine: starts singing
Subtitles: [Music]
I just realized something: the final kiss sounds much higher pitched and almost like a pair of scissors snipping, a possible nod to her beheading. Either that or im crazy
*Last time I was this early Cathrine and Anne still had heads*
her story is so sad. she got beheaded for trying to find someone who won’t use her. she was so desperate to find someone who cared.
This hurt so much. (You did such a good job!)
It shows how people who get victimized at a young age become targets because they get used to being treated like trash and they don’t defend themselves against abuse.
OH MAN THAT HAND SQUEEZE AT THE END BECAUSE SHE WAS BEHEADED GOT ME LIKE
Nobody:
K Howards arms: *NOODLED*
After listening to this for the millionth time, I just realized. The "13 going on 30" line is disturbing enough, but somehow it manages to get even worse when you realize she never really made it to "going on 30"...
Idk why but I keep replaying the little dance at 1:25 it’s so cute
“I think this time is different”
“I’m sure this time is different”
“I guess it’s not so different”
It’s so sad how many times it
happened to her.
3:29 I lost my shit and starting crying from laughing. Thank you, I haven’t laughed like that in a while.
The way you show the lute unplayed and flute falling off the table when she sings about "playing" them... Very clever. I've been silently getting annoyed at animatics where they're just wholesomely playing the instruments - read between the lines!
This is amazing ❤
I love how the song show how toxic these relationships were and that katherine was young and a victim of these men
I really like how the style is Katherine is visiting her memories and sort of trying to convince herself that at least one relationship will work out but none of them do
