For Nikolai, it's very obvious that Monaco likes him. But for some reason, he can't help but hate her guts.

This version sounds milder. It's good.
the way I screamed "NOOOO WAY" when I saw the step mom
SHE STILL HAS THE MARKS
LITERALLY OMG
SAMEEEE
SCREAMING CRYING I NEED MORE
I SAID THE SAME THING
Worst way to meet your future mother in law:
Will they really be endgame tho??? 👀
@@lenabyn don't hurt me like that ;-;
oh….
@@lenabyn It's okay, I torture my friends with the same replies to their questions... This is a joke too right?
@@lenabyn isn't monaco a minor tho?
THEY'RE BACKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!
IKRRR I CANT WAIT !!!
Omggg its the step mom!
Its a full circle
Now we have met both Nikoli's mum and Monico's father in the most recent episodes of lpt
Your coment give me vibes of "The Familt Jewels - MARINA" song
We dont see his adult form like we have seen franklins @@rajsriSaharia
I started watching little pickle town since I was 14, and I became obsessed with the lore, and i waited patiently for another video. Thank u girls 🥺
Same my guy
me too
Niko’s step mom showed up after ALL THIS TIME 😨😭 cry screaming throwing up
The parallels with his younger self destroyed me. Thank you it was so good !
I am going to cry aren’t I?😭
Me too! I can bet. If it's Nikolai, I cry. 😭
I finished watching-
I teared up- 💔
It’s soo saaddd 😭
Nikolai's relationship with Monaco seems complicated, because while, as you mentioned, he hates her guts he also can't seem to leave them alone. Clearly, there are moments he feels some kind of affection and care, it looks like he hates showcasing vulnerability. In fact, I think he took off his necklace as some sort of power move to gain some sort of self-control with Monaco and avoids her worry in a similar manner. I guess that's what makes him and his stepmother similar.
I think the hate comes from the fact that Monaco is so earnest, like how Nikolai was when he was younger with his stepmom, who was sincere in her joining the family only to be abandoned in the end. I think he perceives all his earnest attempts as stupidity in the end due to his abandonment, which is why he hates Monaco but also cares for her. He keeps switching between wanting to break her but continues to take care of her. Similar to how the stepmom decided to prostitute herself to get money to use the father's money as little as possible, mostly just reserving it for Nikolai's wellbeing. Like, she see's his mother in him, but can't find her own place in his life.
Him revealing his bruises broke the internal scale for him, but not in the way he thinks. By denying Monaco's concern, he finally acknowledges that he's become like his stepmom, who he knows as a terrible person, and why he hates Monaco.
😔🥺💕
Omg the Step mom is back!! Also I feel dumb bc I never realized that wearing the choker is mostly likely a way for Nikolai to feel the sensation without actually choking himself.
bro that literally me lol but bro i didnt notice either
nikolai resenting monaco for her (behavioral) resemblance to his innocent younger self adds such good dramatic irony to a relationship we mainly see from monaco's pov
and it really feels like you're catching nikolai's slips into julia's behavior along with him! watching him try to recover and play it off as fast as he can to pull back from acting like her at the last second hurts so good
i wonder how it might affect him to meet julia again now that she's in pickle town, especially if after all this time she's different from the julia **he** became... but also from the end i wonder what a friendship between monaco and julia might look like!
i'm glad you're uploading again!
Aaaaaa I love comments like these, it's so nice to read!! 😫😫💕
Man it all comes full circle. God I care so much about this little fictional town with all of its people
Oh my god, the parallels?? The back and forth between Monaco and younger Nicolai and then Nicolai and his step mom?? And then the step mom FINDING MONACO AT THE END?? AAAAAAHHHHHHH
Honestly, I did not catch that he hated her until I saw the comments and then saw the description. I rewatched it and realised what those swirls in his eyes meant.. and now I just hate him a bit. The way he plays with her heart just because he finds it funny, knowing he'll just dip eventually. Like I know he has problems, but that does not really excuse leading her on. The difference between her and his perspective broke my heart. I hope she finds someone better or just heals and moves on. Amazing work as always. I always get your videos recommended by youtube and it's never disappointing. Here's to hoping for the next episode to reveal more about their pasts and have the characters heal.
Thank you for the compliment!! ^^
I wanted to show that Monaco viewed him too idealistically that she never saw his issues and that even a "good" character like Nikolai was capable of hurting others.
Same
I don't think he truly hates her. I don't think he's playing with her heart for amusement at all, no matter how much he tries to make himself believe that. He has a love-hate relationship with his younger self, and on the surface he resents the innocence, vulnerability and desperation for love, but deep down that kid's still a part of him.
I think he's trying to convince himself that he's just playing with Monaco for amusement, but he actually did start enjoying himself around her (deleting his previous contacts) and growing comfortable with her. I think he, without knowing, reacts the same way his mother would, and when he realises, he runs away from her because he can feel himself become the very person who hurt him.
As a victim myself, that's how I see it, at least.
@@heather2701 I get that. It's clear that overtime he may not feel the same way as before, but I still think it's worth mentioning that he started leading her on and pretending to like her when he didn't, and slept with other people while doing so (though I understand he has a lot going on mentally). But I can see why you'd mention how he actually seems to like her later on. We'll see where it goes and if he apologizes or whether he will avoid her or what not. Thank you for sharing your opinion.
2:29 I love how the lyrics show like the different internal voices Nikolai could have and how they conflict. They say “please don’t go” and “break my heart” it’s like it reflects the parts of him that are looking to connect and other parts that are looking to stay safe from more trauma and not have to connect and just confirm his view of things
MORE OF NIKOLAI'S LORE? YES PLS❤❤❤ I'll ready my tissues for this one🤧
THAT DESCRIPTION SCARES MEEEEEEE 😭😭😭
The ending… I hope Nikolai will get the closure he needs since he's devolving into a similar version of his stepmother with the self-hatred and unhealthy habits of indulgence and self-multilation. Monaco is the perfect person to help him get out of his dark place since her kindness and caring personality is everything Nikolai needs right now
I've been watching since I was 16, and I'm almost 20 now. Even to this day, Little Pickle Town brings me comfort and companionship. I wouldn't be who I am today without its creation, truly
It seems like the step mother healed. I hope that she goes and have a proper talk with her step son and apologies properly.
He hates Monaco because she reminds him of his past self, and he hates himself 😭
I can’t wait for the drama of him and his step mom’s unfinished business together.
is this a complex and beautiful commentary on cycles of abuse and how you can become like the parent who hurt you the most? why yes, it is.
It was great. A cliff hanger resolved. And was that Nikoli's mum at the end, if so in the most recent 2 videos we have met both Nikoli's and Monico's parents
Who are Monico's parents? Did I miss something or are you referring to Caesar?
Yes I was referring to Uncle Fran's childhood boyfriend as it is confirmed that Monico an Io are sisters (half-sisters) and Caesar is their father
@@rajsriSaharia oh my
Been waiting years for another episode, and it’s almost here!
UGHH I WANT THEM TO BE HAPPY SO BAD, the story telling is so good, I cant wait to see more of their story
As always amazing story telling through your animatics. You show trauma in such a descriptive way it always gets to me.
That ending caught me COMPLETELY off guard. In the middle of cooking, but got too invested
Before the video: AHHHHH SO EXCITED BUT SO SCARED GOOD LUCK FUTURE ME IK UR GONNA SOBB‼️‼️
After the video:im not okay anymore lmao
Im thinking that Nikolai doesnt necessarily hate *Monaco,* he hates his younger self. And he sees so much of his younger self in Monaco; how that he used to try and make his mom happy, the way he was always vyeing to get her attention and get her to show him love and care. Which is why Monaco flashes to the younger self and Nikolai flashes to the mom. Their relationship is a parallel of Nikolai and his mom. And Nikolai knows this, he knows he is becomeing like his mom. He looks in his reflection and sees his mom as him. The reflection says "you monster" and I think that Nikolai said that, not just him imagining the reflection syaing it. He knows his mom was a monster, and he knows he's one too.
And on the other hand, when he sees Monaco flash to his younger self, he gets that shock feeling, but then he snaps out of it and takes it as an opportunity. He realizes that he can make Monaco feel the same sort of pain that he did. That feeling when he loved someone and wanted them to love him, but it was never returned. He knows Monaco likes him, he knows Monaco wants his love. But he doesn't care much for that. Nikolai just wants to do to her what happened to him. Its kinda like a weird twisted coping mechanism.
You put so much thought and care into how their backstories would affect their designs and omg your character design is freaking peak!!!!! Sorry I love character design just in general and your OCs are all so good!!!
I do try to give their designs as much story as I could so thank you!! >///
LIAUSGDLAIUSBGJK A NEW PIECE OF THIS AMAZING SERIES HAS BEEN GIFTED UPON US!!!!
I love this series so much and as I have the tradition of rewatching the entire playlist everytime a new one gets uploaded I have to say, both of you have grown your art SO MUCH! I love this style and the way it has been progessing since the beggining is such a joy to see, each new episode just gets better.
Its so cool to be able to see thing from Nikolai's POV too, seeing him falling into the unhealthy behaviours his step mom had feels so intimate with how its portrayed, the animatic brings us so close to him in a way that makes the feels hit even harder
And I'm SO excited to see Julia in pickle town, i've always found their story so sad because of how much they both hurt, there were no "bad" people beetween them, only a child who wanted to be loved and a woman who didn't know how to love him. I really hope she's in a better place now so they can mend their relationship, but it's going to be hard for Nikolai to see her again, I wonder how's she's gonna react to his pink hair.
As always I LOVE seeing anything from pickle town SO SO SO MUCH. The entire project just has such a nice and unique feeling to it that makes it so different from everything else! Really happy to see more of it!!
Thank you for your kind words and for your support!! 🥺💕
I've always loved the idea that sometimes, people are just morally grey and that even a "good" character can hurt others (Nikolai playing around with Monaco because he knows she likes him). And maybe we'll have a Julia backstory next time??? 👀
Shit dude it’s painful how much I can relate to this guy. Love to see you animating again, think the symbolism is pretty cool the fact that he looks like a male version of his past step mom. It is a tragedy, for both Nikolai and his step mom repeatedly having sex not to be close to a potential life lover but to simply feel something. Though I do theorize Madame also had sex and got money for it so she could save most of Nikolai’s fathers money for Nikolai when he grew up. Love the story, Nikolai is my favorite character from Pickle Town by far definitely.
THE GASP I LET OUT IN THE END ! been waiting for this for years and im so glad
THE LAST FRAME ALMOST MADE ME SPIT OUT MY WATERMELON
this is so good omg, the coloring, the shading and whatnot, AND the art literally getting better and better animatic by animatic.
literally banger after banger every single time!! can't wait for more of you guys' animatics 🔥🙏
Thank you!! ;u;
Are you gonna pay for my therapy? ☹️☹️
OMG OMG I SCREAMED OMG WHAT WAS THAT ENDING???? Thank you for not giving up on the series, we love you 🙏🙏‼️‼️‼️🫂
Thank you so much for your support as well! And no worries, the updates are very slow but I'm not planning on abandoning the series ^^
@@lenabyn THANK YOU and don't worry about time, we're happy just to know you're okay 🎀
Nikolai is the one who bring me to this little pickle town world and he's back!
Thnk you for coming back yall😭 and all your videos always worth my wait.❤
My jaw dropped. It's absolutely stunning as always, y'all never fail to touch me
Ah the very trope of "becoming the very thing you hated"
I'm really invested in their story. Love the way it's told and synched with the music. It's helped me understand so much better a lot of my emotions. Thanks for creating this series! ☺️☺️
Thank you for supporting us as well! 🥺
This is truly my favorite thing on youtube, i can't wait! It's good to have you back!!
Thank u, and I'm glad to be back too!! T^T
the dark haired girl/guy/nb person looks exactly like me, even the mole, i found this animatic adorable.
I was going to bed but not anymore,also NOOOOOOOOOO THE CYCLE
UGH IM RELATING MORE TO THESE CHARACTERS AND ITS JUST HHHH FINALLY AN ANIMATION THAT CAN JUST BEAUTIFULLY SHOW A STRUGGLE LIKE THIS ITS SO WELL DONE IM SO GLAD LITTLE PICKLE TOWN IS ONE OF MY HYPERFIXATIONS
just shed so much tears .. and i think it's been some years since i last visited a LPT animatic.. BRB IM GONNA CRY A WATERFALL
cant wait to cry and rip all my hair out once its out
oh my... god. this is genuinely a masterpiece. like objectively, this is actually a work of art.
Thank you!! 🥺🥺
EEEEE I HATE MYSELF BECAUSE I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH WITH EVERY LITTLE PEICE OF HEARTBREAKING LOREE
YEHAHAGWH WE’RE BAXK AND NICOLAI’S BACKSTORY IS GODDAM HEART CLENCHING AND I LOVE THE ART AND AAAAAA You worked very hard and it turned out beautiful
I did work very hard on this one, so thank you so much for the kind words!! ❤❤
I haven't watched the other animatics in this series, but this one alone brought me to tears. That was horrendous in the most beautiful way possible, I feel so bad for them all 😭 Seeing the marks actually had my heart in my throat
Thank you for your kind words
@@lenabyn I plan on watching them later today!! (It's currently 4 in the morning for me LOL)
Haha throat. Sorr
this is way too good- depicts abuse and how it effects people in vastly different but painful ways, far too well.
excellent work, and hope you have a lovely day. your art is stunning.
I love how this adds to the Pickle Town lore! Keep it up! 💛
You’re so great with your story telling and art you always overflow me with so many emotions whenever I see your animatics
I've been following you since the "choke" video, god I'm so surprised by the parallelism of this video.
It has destroyed my head
Omg I need the rest of the story right now!! (Amazing animation btw!❤!)
no way, the step mom back! :O But she did look better in the past somehow(Despite those scars, marks on her neck), so maybe finally a reconciliation between them or maybe talk to each other out soon? I'm shocked to see her back in the series.
I'm actually crying right now, I'm not exaggerating or anything, I'm crying.
Dude, this made me reflect so much on my adolescence. Not that of the stepmother, but that of dissociation.
I so want to see the end of this story now.
I AM SAT
MY BABYYY:(( It´s history repeating itself. Her mother turned into a better person, but now he's going through it. He repeated her mother's steps. I´ve seen this series since 2020 and it´s such a warm feeling to see a new episodie, being from you or anana alog. I love you, guys, thanks for keeping this good work on. It´s been a pleasure for me to grow by the side of your characters, its such a lovely feeling.
I'm deeply sad for him even if I saw it coming, though. Amazing job on portraying how he sees himself just like his mother, cause sadly, that's how he turned out.
Lenabyn always hits me with the plot twists in the end of her vids 😭 i just don't want anyone to suffer anymoreeee
Omg whatt😭😭😭?? I’m way too much invested in their story for my own good, I’m so glad their back I missed them^^. I hope they’re all be able to have their happy ending though😭😭❤
Remembering how things used to be and not being able to take it back is probably one of worst feelings we have to live with..
can’t belive i’ve been watching since before saint benard, i love your guyss stuff i’m so excited to see where the stories go
i love this project so much. I remember seeing first episodes when they came out, gradually getting more and more interested in your works. It is spectacular and it's such a delight seeing it all unrevelling. Thank you for your efforts!
No, thank you for your continuous support as well! 🥺🥺💕
I’m so glad you’re back
And (OMG I LOVED THIS ANIMATIC, but I’m also scared for what’s gonna happen)
I was so excited when I got the notification! The way you showed the mom and him and see that he has become like her. I felt called out, and my heart broke for him. Also, seeing the mom show up at the end! I gasped at that. Anyway, this was so good, and I'm excited to see what happens next! :D
I’m so sad I missed the premiere! This is so well crafted. I loved the end and all the parallels even though it was heartbreaking. Practically all of the video was heartbreaking actually 😭
Also it’s his mom at the end!!
AAAA we are SO back- i love this series so much and was beyond happy to see it in my notifs again !!
Don't worry Nikolai, you're not like your mother !
We love you❤
No!! My baby!! The stepmom at the end?!I can't with this plot!!
CAN’T WAIT !!! ❤
I love how you guys intertwine all these characters and stories!!
😱 Fist off. Fuck yeah, it's back. I love this series from the bottom of my heart and the joy I felt watching this episode. The ability to tell such good stories in a unique format, the emotion and growth is so easy to tell despite having so little dialogue. The silence speaks volumes and it's just so good. The story is easy to follow and I feel so many things of just joy, happiness, sadness, etc. Just a rollercoaster of emotions from this beautiful series you've made and I love every second. You're doing an amazing job and you shouldn't stop.
Aaaaaa, this just made my day!! Thank you so much for your kind words >///
@@lenabyn hearing that that made your day has made my day lol. Little Pickle Town will forever have a place in my heart and you deserve all the praise. Keep up the great work and make sure you're taking care of yourself. Can't wait for the next episode(?). Take as much time as you need and don't rush it. You got this 😊
BRO THIS IS THE CONTINUATION WE NEEDED AFTER THE CLIFFHANGER IN THEIR STORY OMG OMG NO WAY OMG I WAITED SO MUCH FOR THIS
3 YEARS...3 YEARS I repeat, I've waited to finally know what happen. Love this series 🫶
IM SO HAPPY ITS BACK!! I MISSED LPT SO MUCH
I need to give them ALL hugs at this point
Aah estoy tan feliz de ver a estos personajes de nuevo, aún recuerdo cuando los vi el el vídeo de "it's ok" por primera vez 😩🫶 i love this
You are my inspiration. Like literally I’m obsessed with your art and stories! This one was amazing! I loved it and just the colors! Omigosh amazing!
I really like your stories that you tell through meme, I look forward to the next videos!
Omg i was thinking that This vídeo was 1 year no 1 DAY!!!!! They are back and i am too Happy, i need more of this and they’re story
Today I lost one more loved one. Each of your animations keep me alive, I could never thank you enough. You mean so much to me, you're always there each time, thank you so much, I think I could never tell you how much you mean to me. Thanks for ever sharing these animations with us, you've helped me through so much. Thank you, I will never forget you.
I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope you get the time to heal. And thank you for the support as well, I'm happy to hear that my animatics can help even just a bit.

Your art style holds so much emotion. :)
Thank u so much 🥺🥺
@@lenabyn Of course!
i watched this today when it premiered and i just keep coming back. this is addicting..
Слежу за вашим творчеством уже года три-четыре, и каждый раз задаюсь вопросом, почему нет книги или манхвы, нарисованного вами. 😭
Так хочется читать и перечитывать все время, а не только видосики и минр комиксы, мне так мало контента по вашему творчеству. 😭😭😭
Это так прекрасно, мне очень нравятся ваши герои, прописанные травмы, их взаимодействия, ваша рисовка, как вы это преподносите и вообще все нравится! ❤
WAIT STEP MOM IS BACK??????????????? also ive waited for this upload for so so longg!!
thank you so much for keeping up with this series, love it so much
Now that was amazing. The visual side the music THE STORY!!! I am in love with this series.❤❤❤❤❤
But why was it sooo saaad nooo Monaco and what was the step mom doing there. I am excited and scared at the same time for the next part of this story.
Wow! I have not seen your videos in ages, but you are the reason I found one of my favorite artist (IDKHOW) I love the video you did for choke, it honestly change my life.
I'm so happy it's the first one I get to discover with everybody
Still coming back and enjoying this such great work as always Lena you just slay year round
thank you, sneaky!! >:))
I'm stunned. Definitely worth the long wait.
Thank you! :>
