It’s not that big of a deal, but I hate it how no one seems to notice that in ep 4 when the flashlight flickers on after it finishes rolling across the floor, it illuminates Uzi’s back pack, showing that the arms are gone. This foreshadowing tells us that Uzi gave in and consumed the oil inside of them. It’s a tiny detail that literally none of these people notice. I’ve watched so many of these videos hoping that maybe one will notice this tiny detail that added to the creep factor for me. But alas, my search continues. Edit: also the picture from the first ep is burned by the nanite acid that khan tells us killed nori. The picture is just distorted. But I still got a kick out of his perspective on it.
Was hoping for someone to realize that when uzis eyes flicker yellow it’s not her turning into a murder drone, there is a small line of code under her eyes that says something like AbsouluteSolver:false, and in that same moment it turns to true. So she had absolute from the beginning
@@ProReel135 Yeah, and I also think that it's a pretty interesting the possibility that the reason why she could control her powers after ingesting that first drop of oil in episode 3, is that the absolute solver goes into a sort of hibernation(deactivates) when its host has not gotten any oil from another source. As that would imply that there are no drones(or any other source of oil) where the host is, and therefore the host drone is surviving off of their own oil. So when Uzi ingested that first drop, the Absolute Solver activated, but not completely... Instead, it probably started a process to get the necessary oil(and matter) for complete activation, which is why when she 'ate' the parts in her bag, the absolute solver was completely active and that's why it says 'AbsoluteSolver: True' as you said in your comment.
Funny thing about missing person posters in that they all say "gray hair", "gray eyes", "gray shirt". Because photos are grayscale, and they probably wrote description from the photo.
I think we can confirm this because Kelsey doesn't match this description I think On my first watch I just thought the murderer (Who I didn't even know was Doll because it was that early in the episode) was targeting drones with grey everything for some reason until I saw Kelsey.
Cyn is the creator of the Disassembly drones, and she is the drone that was buried, also killing the drones isnt the proper way to destroy them, instead it would make more drones like cyn, making more powerful hosts of the solver
Slight note it's currently believed that the mutation that caused CYN to exist is an extremely rare case but your totally right on what causes the chance to mutate
What suprises me is that Cyn is the main host/patient zero for the absolute solver, yet also the admin for murder drones, blocking the solvers influence on them at the same time. They (Or at least V) despise her and are on a mission to destroy all the solver infected drones. It doesn't add up that Cyn being the admin of the dissasembly drones would be also blocking the solver in them for whatever reason if she is already infected, unless it's more of a "Use when neccesary" kinda thing to make their saliva have restorative properties without it corrupting them?
@@theinsanemaniacs1297 Yes. There’s a 0.01% chance for an improperly disposed drone to self reboot, and a 0.7% chance for the self rebooted drone to have the Absolute solver.. That’s a 0.007% chance
@@greymidnight1221that is because while cyn has influence on drones infected by the solver, she also does not fully have control of them and at least at first, they have full control over their solver abilities. Cyn was also aware through her infected hosts that Copper-9 scientists were experimenting on the solver, to try and understand it (she was no aware of the product of it, that being the patch) and that was a *danger* . Humans gaining a grasp on the solver abilities would have meant that potential hosts would resist her control and tangibly be a threat to her mission. And we, as an audience, learned that both Yeva and Nori had been patched out of her influence. Meaning that Cyn knew that other hosts existed and potentially could grow to become issues later down the line if not dealt with. Hence why she sent the murder drones to kill all the potential hosts, and then find the cabin fever labs where the experiments were taking place. There she would be able to finish the core collapse and finally consume the planet. We know this is a very real threat since while Nori was not able to break free from Cyn until the patch was administered, Uzi did. And at least for the time being seem to have been able to call on the solver undisturbed. It may just be temporary, but that highlight that cyn really does not want other hosts running around especially, when she got done with earth and was on her way.
I really like how the line between organic and machinery is very thin in Murder Drones since the Absolute Solver can manipulate matter, it adds to the unsettling atmospheres that can lean into. Also, apparently Liam Vickers actually is a fan of the horror movies similar to the show's elements, and might've based the episodes after his top favorite ones as a sort of tribute. For example, Episode 3 is similar to Carrie and episode 6 could be a tribute to Jurassic Park.
There’s literally a horror movie named Cabin Fever and apparently a bunch of kids go out to a campsite and ‘stuff happens’ according to some people I know. I wonder which episode this might seem similar to-
The Absolute Solver program masquerades as a program or virus, but is in actuality an Eldritch Abomination trying to enter our reality. It first manifest by manipulating machinery. However this becomes the tip of the ice berg when you realize this Entity can convert non-organic matter into organic matter and vice versa. For a "program" it sure seems to have strange connections to the occult such as vampirism, witchcraft, and perhaps immortality. We actually meet this "Cyn" briefly in episode 2 as a giant Centipede machine meat monster. One of "Cyn's" abilities seems to be the creation and manipulation of black holes, which is how it destroyed Earth.
@@thecaring9616Episode 3 is Carrie. 4 is Cabin Fever with Friday the 13th mixed in. Some of 6 is Jurassic Park. But whatever else has been copied so often I can't what it's originally from. "Help! I'm stuck in a dark abandoned office building w/ monsters."
Great video. Really fun. One point. Uzi's rifle IS technically a Rail Gun. Rail Guns were so named due to the rails which are used to accelerate something with the magnetic force they generate. Uzi refers to her rifle as a "Magnetically Amplified Photon Converger". Just going on the name that suggests that it uses magnetic force to accelerate and focus the laser. Hence it is a railgun just with a different type of payload.
They are 18, 19, and 20. The missing prom queen posters had ages on them, all 18-20 range. Meaning that was senior prom. So everyone in uzi's class are seniors and at least 18.
Great video; but I have a nitpick; actually Doll was always infected; or at least since the pilot. When her and Lizzy get to Thad being attacked you can see oil on her skirt... That girl was already messed up from the start actually lol.
Doll is probably the most interesting character in the whole series and at the same time the most upsetting. You can tell that she just wants to cure the solver infection, but she doesn't know how. It's quite a sad story...
@@Wolf_Roblox101lets just assume (and hope) its a high possibility. especially since theyre robots, age might be less about the time they spent alive but more like their update version or something.
@@Wolf_Roblox101 well technically yes but im not taking sides. i was just saying "hopefully" because its clearly obvious where their relationship is going in the show.
I spent the whole day binge watching Murder Drones and obsessing over it after subscribing to Glitch Productions because of The Amazing Digital Circus, and suddenly I see this amazing hour-long video essay that points out all of the hidden lore that I somehow managed to miss???? I feel spoiled. #NCuresDepression
@@KP-cb4sy Thats what a friend told him And also he might be saying that some people who used to work at Element Animation now work for Glitch Productions. Try and put a pinch of salt for anything so say on the Internet just a simple word of advice.
i think the photo in the pilot episode is not a flesh blob but instead just Uzi's mother with a whole in it from nanite acid, because later in the same episode Kahn mentions he had to put Uzi's mom down with a wrench when the murder drones got to them with their "NANITE ACID" so i assume they might have tried to use the photo as a shield before failing.
I do to seeing as the hand dosen't seem to be coming out of the blob but instead from behind it any the blob seems to be damage to the frame. But it seems organic as well making me believe it's a growth or mold on the frame
Yessss I just found this series two days ago and I was BLOWN AWAY. I literally sat not moving the whole day as I consumed a world of characters and storylines and EVERYHTING that seemed to speak to my soul. It’s everything I needed and I didn’t know I did. I’ve rewatched the episodes already and I just watched them two days ago but somehow I notice new things and feel like I’m watching a new show each time. Also I love N character.
2:47 if they had the funding to create interstellar travel, I’m surprised they didn’t just nuke the planet from orbit (or destroy the surface in any other way) if the robots were such an issue. Instead of building androids that slowly kill them one at a time and that can be reasoned with.
Maybe Earth was a sort of central command center. we've already seen how humans in MD can sometimes lack common sense, so maybe they just thought, "screw it, Earth = only command center" lol.
This is a great video essay! By far some of the highest quality content about this series I have seen. I'm looking forward to seeing more Murder Drones content from you! I also don't think V is dead, her death was shown off-screen, which isn't something you do with a main character. Another thing to note about V is that she was the main cover girl of Murder Drones from the first teaser, the Disassembly Required music video, the trailer, and even the thumbnail of the Pilot; all this before she was even a main character. She's also gotten quite a lot of concept art in comparison to the other characters (from what we've been shown). Another thing is, she has uncompleted character arcs that need to be finished. And finally, she has clones. J said "Effective drones were cloned more", and Tessa came with two other pods that could contain clones of N and V. I think we're going to get a happy ending to this series. If there's a season 2, we're probably just gonna get a big cliffhanger because Liam loves his cliffhangers. Some stuff that I would like to point out though: In the family picture from episode 1, Nori isn't a monster with a mess of limbs, her face/upper body is burned off (the picture probably got stabbed or was purposefully burned); Uzi and Doll were both infected from the beginning, Liam Vickers (the writer of the show) said that robo- offpsrings are made from a combination of the code from both parents; The Disassembly units shown in the Zombie Drones VHS aren't earlier versions of the Disassembly Drones, Cyn took parts from those to make the Disassembly Drones. Rebecca (the blue and purple haired girl that Uzi cut in half in ep 4) is at least 18, and so are all the other classmates; and lastly, the Glitch team isn't made of the animators from Element Animation, it's a team of animators founded by Luke (SMG4) and Kevin Lerdwichagul. And something not so significant, but N is around 5'6".
At least someone agrees with me that V isn't dead.... and when it comes to the ages of the classmates. I was going off how it works in the UK where you have your prom at 16
@@InwardBisonYT Ohh I see. The missing posters all showed ages from 18-20, and I know in some countries they have prom around that age. Murder Drones does also take place in 3071 so they could've had some changes in the education system lol, if the workers even replicated the system one-to-one.
i was rewatching this and i had a lightbulb moment. TLDR version is Doll has some type of offshoot absolute solver because the symbol doll has, has hexagons at the points of the symbol and Uzi, instead, has triangles at the points like all the other times we see the symbol. Edited note, i know we've seen doll with the same solver symbol as Uzi, this happens in some minor scenes where the camera shot is focusing on the fact that doll has similar powers to what Uzi gets later, since doll is not a zombie drone, we can hypothesis this mean that the solver either abandoned doll a host or the solver program didn't manifest right upon doll acquiring it however that happened.
I believe I've also seen Uzi use the Hexagonal Solver when she beheads one of the classmates in Camp Fever. It's weird, it just be an oversight that they use it so interchangably, but it's also possibly purposeful, but right now, I don't think we can glean anything particularly meaningful from that bit of tidbit, unfortunately
I believe tht each different symbol of the solver does a different thing. Arrows can lift things up and to telekinetic things, The one with two oval Uzi uses to find the dead body in ep 4 warps and twists, and hexagonal one possibly like can edit or change things like how it locks the doors
4:10 Actually it's more like a fancy flashlight because it's a "magnetically amplified photon converter" and light is photons, but it also technically makes it a railgun! Yeah go ahead, I'll do it myself: 🤓
In going to leave any errors I find here. Still a good video though and I appreciate the time it has taken you. This is just a little game for me and not to be taken too seriously: • Uzi doesn't really have a loving family • That isn't a flesh mess in the picture frame. It is her mum but the image is ripped with the yellow goo falling out of the hole • V didn't go off to kill murder bots but I'm sure this was an accident 10:50 • It is a rare mutation in the code of robots that come back to life after being improperly dismantled and is passed diwn to kids by parents 40:50 • According to the missing posters they are 19/20 42:36 • Dogs didn't cause it 43:17 • That def wasn't an accident but maybe out of her control 46:48 • I think that model takes there separate limbs apart whilst the boys are just supposed to kill to activate more silvers 55:40 • I believe that is cyn so not a male 56:48
Thanks to GlitchX, we know we will be getting episode 7 & 8 at the same time around Spring of 2024. The teaser looks more like a, "N and Uzi are alone but it's no longer Uzi" situation than a "we can do this together" sort of thing. We don't even hear any voice lines from Uzi in it, just N talking about him and Uzi finding answers and stuff. Also N doesn't look to good in that scene where he is getting freaking dragged into the darkness or where Uzi just crushes his hand (I think). Also I didn't really spot Tessa in that either so maybe she died? I dunno call me a dumbass but this happened freaking yesterday ok.
Bold of you to assume I haven’t heard of this I’ve been hyperfixating on it for months and can watch it with no volume because I know all the words and I’ve watched the whole show 3 times today
You're very underrated my guy! This was actually a very good review of the series: very detailed, yet fun and goofy at times with your own opnions put in where needed. Helped me to understand some things I missed or was not clear on too. I wish you luck with your RUclips career - you have great potential to become very popular! Also, apart from amazing story-telling, humor, animating, voice-acting, etc of "Murder Drones" can we just appreciate how great music for the series is? It puts a perfect cherry on the top, epsecially that song "Eternal Dream" in the very end of episode 6 just fits so well for such a cliff hanger. Applauses for AJ Disprito. And Glitch generally - they are really crushing it.
I have never heard of Glitch productions but I saw Pilot a few day after premiere on fyp and I checked it out. THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST CHOICES I HAVE EVER MADE IN MY LIFE. 💛💜
I'm not sure if you noticed this but when Uzi meets the greenish yellow robot cockroach thingy it says "Welcome Back [002]" with the same skull symbol next to it which means it has some sort of connection to the workers of the facility and Uzi's mother Nori as it also states if 002 would like to submit a timecard or a PTO request (paid time off).
This has got to be the most in depth look into murder drones I’ve found so far THANK YOU SO MUCH. there is so much stuff that I would never have noticed in a million years if it weren’t for this video. I also think V is still alive but is in a situation where you think they are dead for the longest time but when you least expect it they are back and breathing to save your ass from certain doom.Maybe I’m just in denial but I can dream.
I still don’t know why it isn’t a trending show on Netflix! Despite the attention it already gets, 1m views in a day and the newest episode on currently 5m views, it deserves so much more!
The creators explained in a video that they would not like to give them or any other of those places this series or any other they create in the future because they are afraid that they will decide for them, whether it will be canceled or extended, they want to be the ones who decide, they don't want someone above them telling them how to do their show.
When J came back she said that they were cloned so it’s more likely V will also come back but as another body with probably the same memory, it’s also confirmed in Cyn’s basement that there are more than one copy of them.
Then again, V has had vision problems from the start as she always wears glasses in the flashbacks and (at least the model we see) would have been discarded as we see in Ns memories. So was she cloned more? On the other side she seems do be doing more than fine when looking at what she does without glasses on Copper-9. The only reason for her to wear glasses at the end of 6 is because they seem to prevent her from getting bootlooped. She also squints her eyes when wearing them whitch might imply that her vision is actually worse with them on.
@@lupowo3966she actually didn’t have seeing problems when she became I murder drone (I think) I think she used the glasses so angry Dino raptors wouldn’t taze her
Great video! Only thing I'd like to point out is that GLITCH is not made up of people from Element Animation. GLITCH is founded by the RUclipsr SMG4 and his brother Kevin. Just thought I'd let you know in case you make more Murder Drones videos in the future!
I was geniunly suprised and didn't believe it when i first heard it They are far far away from each other content wise but both of them pump out bangers regardless
I love Murder Drones so freaking much. I actually bought merch for this show, and lemme tell you, AUD conversion rates are no joke, I cant wait for episode 7
I just had a look on the Glitch store, its apparently $47 for AUD for a singular figurine, and plushie, I have the N plush, Crow Uzi and 2 pins (which are $19 per pin). Im just SO GLAD the shipping fees werent hella expensive I will say though, I only bought Crow Uzi, my friend bought the other things, and my payment converted to $53 (shipping fee included). I dont even want to imagine the other three things...
18:28 bro forgot to mention the Arduino next to the CPU socket, which is a hobbyist microcontroller. for further info, that Arduino model, the Uno, has the ATmega328p microcontroller as its core, which as i said, is used a lot by hobbyists but i didnt even notice that when watching episode 2 several times, recognized it in the frame where he talks about the CPU socket gotta love the attention to detail in this show
How does this man not have at least 100K+ subs and this is the first video I saw of Inward I can't wait for more! edit: a secret you didn't point out, but I do like the ones you did that I didn't notice, at 49:54 it says Chapter 14 THATS NOT WHAT THE BOOK SAID and says "The most important thing - notes scholar Grizzled McOldMan, is avoiding splitting up your group as this pad out the runtime and allow the screenwriter to *??????* more dumb setpieces for each character death *???* Ultimately puts production through hell, Indeed," and that's all I can see on the page
Small detail and some other stuff: The drone under the pile of other drones in Ep 5 is Cyn. If you look very closely at the bottom of the drones arm band it has Cyns name on it. The simillar arm bands were on J, V and N because they were marked for dissasembly. And they still retain those arm bands on. And mostly Solver is basicaly using Cyn as a host (it was mentioned in EP 6 when Tessa was explaining what the AbsoluteSolver does and what it did to Earth). Once she reactivated under the piles The AbsoluteSolver program gained acces to her in which case she started to slowly turn into a eldrich monster (simillar to what happend to J in Ep 2). But Uzi and Doll on other hand are getting corrupted slowly by the program. Both of them have their solvers from their mothers (Nori and Yeva). And those raptors in Ep 6 are called Sentinels and they are ment to well, destroy only AIs. Oh Uzi became a Zombie Drone (well tho she wasnt marked to be dissasembled) because in the tape of Ep 5 it says if not properly doing the steps it would turn the drone into a Zombie Drone. But shes having her own system corrupted by Solver which can transform her into a eldrich monster. Oh and basicaly there different drones that well became eldrich monsters (Like J became one in Ep 2, Cyn and an unknown drone inside the basement). Thats all i have.
This is seriously one of the most underrated videos on RUclips. You put so much effort into this and you go into so much detail explaining the show that, as a MD fam myself, I was able to catch details and clues that I never saw the few times I’ve watched it. Glitch is absolutely Indians putting all of that in a show, and I applaud them for it. bravo!
I've been watching Murder Drones since the teasers or before the release of the Pilot Episode, and it is a cool series and I love everything about it from the Characters to the plot and humor!
Thank you for this excellent overview of the series so far. I completely missed so many crucial plot points on my first watch through and this video answered a lot of my questions.
This was an amazing video, I live how much effort you have put into this video, but you missed something, doll's mother was also from the camp, her name is Yeva and was also infected at the camp with Nori. The item used to terminate the worker drone OS was used in ep 1 by J on N. There was a lot of information on the last slide of the THS tape and on the screen of the drone before his eyes appeared.
Also, if you have the subtitles on, you can see that it changes from CYN: to SOLVER: so Cyn isn't actually evil and is just being controlled by the solver unwillingly just like Uzi. After they recovered the memories in ep 5, you can see on the screen that it says administrator: CYN to administrator: DARKXWOLF17, which is Uzi’s username
i hope this goes viral and then everyone ever watches murder drones and then everyone can talk about it together in piece and harmony p.s 4:55 i always figured that the picture was just burned during an attack by a disassembly drone at some point, rather than uzi's mom being a blob. if you look close enough, you can see some sharp lines that imply it just being a damaged photo.
0:34 Element animation was SUCH A GREAT PRODUCTION BACK THEN!! I'm still waiting for like episode whatever but Jason the egg (i think) fighting agianst herobrine or something frrom my memeory
Great video overall, a little detail that I would like to remark is that Nori, Khan, and Uzi's photo in episode 1 where Nori looks like a black think with yellow liquid is probably the high corrosive murder drone tail acid that during some attack damaged to picture blackening and damaging Nori's part of the photo only leaving the zone of the arms intact, probably Nori looked like a normal worker drone, mostly.
I just discovered this series and I'm completely in love with N and Uzi. I am praying that neither of them die! Also gonna be really sad when it's over. Thanks for the video, it actually helped clear up a couple things I was confused about.
you probably wont see this but how the robot hereditary thing works is the 2 parents put their code into the body of a child drone and once it's matured enough (i have no idea how they know if it's matured or not) it gets it's code and memories and stuff put into a worker drone body
I went into this show out of pure boredom not expecting anything from it and it turned out to be a work of absolute genius. The plot is interesting and the animation is mesmorizing. What surprised me the most was the humor. They managed to balance a serious plot with some absolutely ridiculous humor. The character development is even present. At first I thought I was going to hate Uzi, but she is surprisingly human and reveals traits of vulnerability despite coming off as a total bratty rebellios tough girl. And then N, despite being a badass in his own right, is like a ray of sunshine throughout the series. He balances out the darkness of the series with his positive light hearted demeanor. And then the gradual romance between N and Uzi is quite charming, showing their character development as the series continues. And I love the facial expressions. They made these robots so human and relatable. Good series. Looking forward to the next episode.
i feel as if v's sacrifice was felt a little sudden too, and yeah, good character progression but the way it was done was kind of sloppy, i feel as if throught all the series she's a character that the writters were really struggling to really insert into the show properly, sure, a little dialogue here and there but not really enough, even more so when in the flashblack episode she's just stationary for basically the entire thing, so if she's really dead (definitely not btw, i agree so much with you lol) she really just goes out as a chracter that doesn't feel really complete
From episodes 1-3 they definitely remind me of both portal and the ALIENS games. 1: probably because this series is made in unreal engine, an engine used for games. 2: it just got that vibe. Edit: and of course, the disassembly drones DO in fact remind me of the Xenomorph
My favorite thing is J's level of corporate shilling with how she constantly spouts business buzzwords and how in the memory, Tessa motivates her to break her chain by triggering her with stories about union workers arguing for rights.
This video is so funny and really well edited and written, good job, I enjoyed this, loved the humor too. If you're reading this I hope you have a good day.
@@InwardBisonYT you haven’t heard of it it’s called the amazing digital circus it’s a new show that glitch is working on it’s coming out on October 13th 2023 it’s a surreal dark horror series go check out the trailer please
i heard of the series just after MatPat released his theory video about it and i watched every episode of Murder Drones in a matter of 2 days after that
Here is some further information on Glitch: Glitch Productions started with two brothers, one who owned a channel known as SMG4 - a SM64 Blooper channel - and one who was good with animation. They worked together and made some good quality stuff on the SMG4 channel. Then they hired a team of animators, who then started work on Meta Runner Season 1. At this point, the SMG4 channel was producing entire arcs of character building and movies about an hour long. Then they developed Season 2 of Meta Runner(I think?), and later Sunset Paradise. After that concluded, they partnered with Liam Vickers - an animator who likes his murderous women with inhuman abilities - to create the Pilot episode (Now Episode 1) of Murder Drones. They then created Meta Runner Season 3, and then I think SMG4 had another arc thing. They then decided to develop more episodes of Murder Drones, getting up to Episode 6 out of 8 before wanting to develop and release The Amazing Digital Circus, which was partnered with Gooseworx, another animator who likes their colourful eyes and geometric shapes. Whilst all of this is happening, Glitch decide to release a meeting with other animators in an event called GlitchX, happening in November. Some people argue that this is a driving factor of Indie Animation as a whole. So that happened, and I am absolutely hyped for what Glitch is doing. One queary, Glitch has over a Million subscribers, so I think Murder Drones is probably decently well-heard of.
11:57 her and the solver actually, you can see when they’re kids they don’t have yellow eyes they only got that after they were turned into disassembly drones
You're close, but i think the photo is just burned out, its not a photo of solver nori as far as i know. So nori was probably carrying this photo when she got stuck with the nanite acid which put her in a lot of pain and khan mercy killed her.
In episode 5, uzi gets out of control not only because she needs oil, but also because she is also lonely that the murder drones fit in so long but she doesn't. Uzi has always been somewhat of a freak and this feeling gets overwhelming. That's why she turned the arrow into a weird alien thing guy, because everyone freaked out about her and one of them shot an arrow at her.
The best way I’ve ever heard uzi described is this: “in any other story, she’d be the main villain”
That is also the best description of Uzi I've heard
This is one of the best descriptions of Uzi I have ever seen-
This is so accurate, she literally brought a gun to school💀
@@InwardBisonYTbtw did you know that the blob in the framed pic on ep 1 was just it being broken by a murderer drone
I want to see uzi holding an uzi
Ep.4 Uzi doesn't break the lights accidentally. She becomes very sensitive and destroys them as they cause her headache.
Relatable 😂
That explains so much also he was overheating-
Literally a migraine
Fun fact: The first time V says Uzi's name was in episode 6 when she said " Uzi, i trust you"
That little detail makes her sacrifice so much more impactfull, she finally respects her right when she is about to bite the bullet.

Finally someone understanding how the company didn’t make them fr
Slight note it's currently believed that the mutation that caused CYN to exist is an extremely rare case but your totally right on what causes the chance to mutate
What suprises me is that Cyn is the main host/patient zero for the absolute solver, yet also the admin for murder drones, blocking the solvers influence on them at the same time. They (Or at least V) despise her and are on a mission to destroy all the solver infected drones. It doesn't add up that Cyn being the admin of the dissasembly drones would be also blocking the solver in them for whatever reason if she is already infected, unless it's more of a "Use when neccesary" kinda thing to make their saliva have restorative properties without it corrupting them?
@@theinsanemaniacs1297 Yes. There’s a 0.01% chance for an improperly disposed drone to self reboot, and a 0.7% chance for the self rebooted drone to have the Absolute solver.. That’s a 0.007% chance
@@greymidnight1221that is because while cyn has influence on drones infected by the solver, she also does not fully have control of them and at least at first, they have full control over their solver abilities. Cyn was also aware through her infected hosts that Copper-9 scientists were experimenting on the solver, to try and understand it (she was no aware of the product of it, that being the patch) and that was a *danger* .
Humans gaining a grasp on the solver abilities would have meant that potential hosts would resist her control and tangibly be a threat to her mission. And we, as an audience, learned that both Yeva and Nori had been patched out of her influence. Meaning that Cyn knew that other hosts existed and potentially could grow to become issues later down the line if not dealt with.
Hence why she sent the murder drones to kill all the potential hosts, and then find the cabin fever labs where the experiments were taking place. There she would be able to finish the core collapse and finally consume the planet.
We know this is a very real threat since while Nori was not able to break free from Cyn until the patch was administered, Uzi did. And at least for the time being seem to have been able to call on the solver undisturbed. It may just be temporary, but that highlight that cyn really does not want other hosts running around especially, when she got done with earth and was on her way.
I really like how the line between organic and machinery is very thin in Murder Drones since the Absolute Solver can manipulate matter, it adds to the unsettling atmospheres that can lean into.
Also, apparently Liam Vickers actually is a fan of the horror movies similar to the show's elements, and might've based the episodes after his top favorite ones as a sort of tribute.
For example, Episode 3 is similar to Carrie and episode 6 could be a tribute to Jurassic Park.
There’s literally a horror movie named Cabin Fever and apparently a bunch of kids go out to a campsite and ‘stuff happens’ according to some people I know.
I wonder which episode this might seem similar to-
Episode 2 is 100% the thing
The Absolute Solver program masquerades as a program or virus, but is in actuality an Eldritch Abomination trying to enter our reality. It first manifest by manipulating machinery. However this becomes the tip of the ice berg when you realize this Entity can convert non-organic matter into organic matter and vice versa.
For a "program" it sure seems to have strange connections to the occult such as vampirism, witchcraft, and perhaps immortality. We actually meet this "Cyn" briefly in episode 2 as a giant Centipede machine meat monster.
One of "Cyn's" abilities seems to be the creation and manipulation of black holes, which is how it destroyed Earth.
@@thecaring9616Episode 3 is Carrie.
4 is Cabin Fever with Friday the 13th mixed in.
Some of 6 is Jurassic Park. But whatever else has been copied so often I can't what it's originally from. "Help! I'm stuck in a dark abandoned office building w/ monsters."
Episode 5 has a scene really reminiscent of the shining
Great video.
Really fun.
One point.
Uzi's rifle IS technically a Rail Gun.
Rail Guns were so named due to the rails which are used to accelerate something with the magnetic force they generate.
Uzi refers to her rifle as a "Magnetically Amplified Photon Converger".
Just going on the name that suggests that it uses magnetic force to accelerate and focus the laser.
Hence it is a railgun just with a different type of payload.
No shit, she literally says "That's why my project is this sick as hell *RAILGUN!*

Great video; but I have a nitpick; actually Doll was always infected; or at least since the pilot. When her and Lizzy get to Thad being attacked you can see oil on her skirt... That girl was already messed up from the start actually lol.
Doll is probably the most interesting character in the whole series and at the same time the most upsetting. You can tell that she just wants to cure the solver infection, but she doesn't know how. It's quite a sad story...
@@InwardBisonYTyeah :(. But according to the concept art I think she is gonna get corrupted regardless... She is doomed.

@@miguelprada6748yes there is gonna be an episode 7 and also 8 to finish season 1. Episode 7 is most likely gonna drop on Halloween
i think the photo in the pilot episode is not a flesh blob but instead just Uzi's mother with a whole in it from nanite acid, because later in the same episode Kahn mentions he had to put Uzi's mom down with a wrench when the murder drones got to them with their "NANITE ACID" so i assume they might have tried to use the photo as a shield before failing.
I do to seeing as the hand dosen't seem to be coming out of the blob but instead from behind it any the blob seems to be damage to the frame. But it seems organic as well making me believe it's a growth or mold on the frame
Thank you for introducing me to the world of murder drones I'm obsessed
You're welcome mate :D
@@InwardBisonYT :D
Yessss I just found this series two days ago and I was BLOWN AWAY. I literally sat not moving the whole day as I consumed a world of characters and storylines and EVERYHTING that seemed to speak to my soul. It’s everything I needed and I didn’t know I did. I’ve rewatched the episodes already and I just watched them two days ago but somehow I notice new things and feel like I’m watching a new show each time. Also I love N character.
2:47 if they had the funding to create interstellar travel, I’m surprised they didn’t just nuke the planet from orbit (or destroy the surface in any other way) if the robots were such an issue.
Instead of building androids that slowly kill them one at a time and that can be reasoned with.
Maybe Earth was a sort of central command center. we've already seen how humans in MD can sometimes lack common sense, so maybe they just thought, "screw it, Earth = only command center" lol.
Thing is, it wasn't the humans who sent the murder drones. It was Cyn.
In ep6 it was revealed that cyn sent them there, not the humans. This important information isnt given the weight it needed
Humanity is in its own post apocalyptic hell the planets core and the murder drones where made by the absolute solver
@@Batterykitten8cyn is literally a puppet to the absolute solver
This is a great video essay! By far some of the highest quality content about this series I have seen. I'm looking forward to seeing more Murder Drones content from you!
I also don't think V is dead, her death was shown off-screen, which isn't something you do with a main character. Another thing to note about V is that she was the main cover girl of Murder Drones from the first teaser, the Disassembly Required music video, the trailer, and even the thumbnail of the Pilot; all this before she was even a main character. She's also gotten quite a lot of concept art in comparison to the other characters (from what we've been shown). Another thing is, she has uncompleted character arcs that need to be finished. And finally, she has clones. J said "Effective drones were cloned more", and Tessa came with two other pods that could contain clones of N and V. I think we're going to get a happy ending to this series. If there's a season 2, we're probably just gonna get a big cliffhanger because Liam loves his cliffhangers.
Some stuff that I would like to point out though: In the family picture from episode 1, Nori isn't a monster with a mess of limbs, her face/upper body is burned off (the picture probably got stabbed or was purposefully burned); Uzi and Doll were both infected from the beginning, Liam Vickers (the writer of the show) said that robo- offpsrings are made from a combination of the code from both parents; The Disassembly units shown in the Zombie Drones VHS aren't earlier versions of the Disassembly Drones, Cyn took parts from those to make the Disassembly Drones. Rebecca (the blue and purple haired girl that Uzi cut in half in ep 4) is at least 18, and so are all the other classmates; and lastly, the Glitch team isn't made of the animators from Element Animation, it's a team of animators founded by Luke (SMG4) and Kevin Lerdwichagul. And something not so significant, but N is around 5'6".
At least someone agrees with me that V isn't dead.... and when it comes to the ages of the classmates. I was going off how it works in the UK where you have your prom at 16
@@InwardBisonYT Ohh I see. The missing posters all showed ages from 18-20, and I know in some countries they have prom around that age. Murder Drones does also take place in 3071 so they could've had some changes in the education system lol, if the workers even replicated the system one-to-one.
I'm gonna make a follow up video once ep 7 gets released addressing the stuff I got wrong... I mean it's really helpful when people nitpick lol
@@InwardBisonYT I'm very much looking forward to it!! If you'd like more lore information let me know
Oh trust me... I'm gonna need it
i was rewatching this and i had a lightbulb moment. TLDR version is Doll has some type of offshoot absolute solver because the symbol doll has, has hexagons at the points of the symbol and Uzi, instead, has triangles at the points like all the other times we see the symbol.
Edited note, i know we've seen doll with the same solver symbol as Uzi, this happens in some minor scenes where the camera shot is focusing on the fact that doll has similar powers to what Uzi gets later, since doll is not a zombie drone, we can hypothesis this mean that the solver either abandoned doll a host or the solver program didn't manifest right upon doll acquiring it however that happened.
absolute silver can be transferred by parents I think
I believe I've also seen Uzi use the Hexagonal Solver when she beheads one of the classmates in Camp Fever. It's weird, it just be an oversight that they use it so interchangably, but it's also possibly purposeful, but right now, I don't think we can glean anything particularly meaningful from that bit of tidbit, unfortunately
I believe tht each different symbol of the solver does a different thing. Arrows can lift things up and to telekinetic things, The one with two oval Uzi uses to find the dead body in ep 4 warps and twists, and hexagonal one possibly like can edit or change things like how it locks the doors
"my existence currently consists of murder drones in Titanfall" the most relatable thing I've heard all year.
Long ass video essays AND great humor that made me laugh countless times? You've earned yourself a new viewer.
4:10
Actually it's more like a fancy flashlight because it's a "magnetically amplified photon converter" and light is photons, but it also technically makes it a railgun!
Yeah go ahead, I'll do it myself: 🤓
Best series i’ve watched in a long time
And Im pretty sure ”the office” at 25:28 is referring to the show
In going to leave any errors I find here. Still a good video though and I appreciate the time it has taken you. This is just a little game for me and not to be taken too seriously:
• Uzi doesn't really have a loving family
• That isn't a flesh mess in the picture frame. It is her mum but the image is ripped with the yellow goo falling out of the hole
• V didn't go off to kill murder bots but I'm sure this was an accident 10:50
• It is a rare mutation in the code of robots that come back to life after being improperly dismantled and is passed diwn to kids by parents 40:50
• According to the missing posters they are 19/20 42:36
• Dogs didn't cause it 43:17
• That def wasn't an accident but maybe out of her control 46:48
• I think that model takes there separate limbs apart whilst the boys are just supposed to kill to activate more silvers 55:40
• I believe that is cyn so not a male 56:48
Thanks to GlitchX, we know we will be getting episode 7 & 8 at the same time around Spring of 2024. The teaser looks more like a, "N and Uzi are alone but it's no longer Uzi" situation than a "we can do this together" sort of thing. We don't even hear any voice lines from Uzi in it, just N talking about him and Uzi finding answers and stuff. Also N doesn't look to good in that scene where he is getting freaking dragged into the darkness or where Uzi just crushes his hand (I think). Also I didn't really spot Tessa in that either so maybe she died? I dunno call me a dumbass but this happened freaking yesterday ok.

You're very underrated my guy! This was actually a very good review of the series: very detailed, yet fun and goofy at times with your own opnions put in where needed. Helped me to understand some things I missed or was not clear on too. I wish you luck with your RUclips career - you have great potential to become very popular!
Also, apart from amazing story-telling, humor, animating, voice-acting, etc of "Murder Drones" can we just appreciate how great music for the series is? It puts a perfect cherry on the top, epsecially that song "Eternal Dream" in the very end of episode 6 just fits so well for such a cliff hanger. Applauses for AJ Disprito. And Glitch generally - they are really crushing it.
2:50 'Divert funding to murderous robots' got me😂😂
I have never heard of Glitch productions but I saw Pilot a few day after premiere on fyp and I checked it out.
THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST CHOICES I HAVE EVER MADE IN MY LIFE. 💛💜
I'm not sure if you noticed this but when Uzi meets the greenish yellow robot cockroach thingy it says "Welcome Back [002]" with the same skull symbol next to it which means it has some sort of connection to the workers of the facility and Uzi's mother Nori as it also states if 002 would like to submit a timecard or a PTO request (paid time off).
This has got to be the most in depth look into murder drones I’ve found so far THANK YOU SO MUCH. there is so much stuff that I would never have noticed in a million years if it weren’t for this video.
I also think V is still alive but is in a situation where you think they are dead for the longest time but when you least expect it they are back and breathing to save your ass from certain doom.Maybe I’m just in denial but I can dream.
I still don’t know why it isn’t a trending show on Netflix! Despite the attention it already gets, 1m views in a day and the newest episode on currently 5m views, it deserves so much more!
It isn't a trending show on Netflix because it's here on RUclips!
The creators explained in a video that they would not like to give them or any other of those places this series or any other they create in the future because they are afraid that they will decide for them, whether it will be canceled or extended, they want to be the ones who decide, they don't want someone above them telling them how to do their show.
For example, the infinite train one
They also want it to be free to view. With funding coming from donations and merch.
@@Shimmering_rain I wish I could buy the posters, but I can't because I'm from Spain
When J came back she said that they were cloned so it’s more likely V will also come back but as another body with probably the same memory, it’s also confirmed in Cyn’s basement that there are more than one copy of them.
I hope to god you're right...
You better be fucking right
Then again, V has had vision problems from the start as she always wears glasses in the flashbacks and (at least the model we see) would have been discarded as we see in Ns memories. So was she cloned more? On the other side she seems do be doing more than fine when looking at what she does without glasses on Copper-9. The only reason for her to wear glasses at the end of 6 is because they seem to prevent her from getting bootlooped. She also squints her eyes when wearing them whitch might imply that her vision is actually worse with them on.

Great video! Only thing I'd like to point out is that GLITCH is not made up of people from Element Animation. GLITCH is founded by the RUclipsr SMG4 and his brother Kevin. Just thought I'd let you know in case you make more Murder Drones videos in the future!
The founders are Kevin and his brother, the animators are the ones from Element Animations.
I was geniunly suprised and didn't believe it when i first heard it They are far far away from each other content wise but both of them pump out bangers regardless
I love Murder Drones so freaking much. I actually bought merch for this show, and lemme tell you, AUD conversion rates are no joke, I cant wait for episode 7
You think AUD conversion is bad. They're charging £24 each for the figurines lol. Still gonna buy them to show my support
I just had a look on the Glitch store, its apparently $47 for AUD for a singular figurine, and plushie, I have the N plush, Crow Uzi and 2 pins (which are $19 per pin). Im just SO GLAD the shipping fees werent hella expensive
I will say though, I only bought Crow Uzi, my friend bought the other things, and my payment converted to $53 (shipping fee included). I dont even want to imagine the other three things...

That's one of my favourite jokes in the series.
Small detail and some other stuff: The drone under the pile of other drones in Ep 5 is Cyn. If you look very closely at the bottom of the drones arm band it has Cyns name on it. The simillar arm bands were on J, V and N because they were marked for dissasembly. And they still retain those arm bands on.
And mostly Solver is basicaly using Cyn as a host (it was mentioned in EP 6 when Tessa was explaining what the AbsoluteSolver does and what it did to Earth). Once she reactivated under the piles The AbsoluteSolver program gained acces to her in which case she started to slowly turn into a eldrich monster (simillar to what happend to J in Ep 2). But Uzi and Doll on other hand are getting corrupted slowly by the program. Both of them have their solvers from their mothers (Nori and Yeva).
And those raptors in Ep 6 are called Sentinels and they are ment to well, destroy only AIs.
Oh Uzi became a Zombie Drone (well tho she wasnt marked to be dissasembled) because in the tape of Ep 5 it says if not properly doing the steps it would turn the drone into a Zombie Drone. But shes having her own system corrupted by Solver which can transform her into a eldrich monster. Oh and basicaly there different drones that well became eldrich monsters (Like J became one in Ep 2, Cyn and an unknown drone inside the basement).
Thats all i have.
If you look at uzi's face closely during the first time she fights J you can see the absolute solver symbol flash and deflect one bullet.
This is seriously one of the most underrated videos on RUclips. You put so much effort into this and you go into so much detail explaining the show that, as a MD fam myself, I was able to catch details and clues that I never saw the few times I’ve watched it. Glitch is absolutely Indians putting all of that in a show, and I applaud them for it. bravo!
I've been watching Murder Drones since the teasers or before the release of the Pilot Episode, and it is a cool series and I love everything about it from the Characters to the plot and humor!
Thank you for this excellent overview of the series so far. I completely missed so many crucial plot points on my first watch through and this video answered a lot of my questions.
"How they went from minecraft animations about villagers and giant creepers to animating THICC robots and body horror"
lmao 🤣
10:21 its not that uzi was too busy arguing, its cause her STUPID FATHER WOULDNT MOVE OUT OF THE FRIKIN WAY
This was an amazing video, I live how much effort you have put into this video, but you missed something, doll's mother was also from the camp, her name is Yeva and was also infected at the camp with Nori.
The item used to terminate the worker drone OS was used in ep 1 by J on N.
There was a lot of information on the last slide of the THS tape and on the screen of the drone before his eyes appeared.
Also, if you have the subtitles on, you can see that it changes from CYN: to SOLVER: so Cyn isn't actually evil and is just being controlled by the solver unwillingly just like Uzi.
After they recovered the memories in ep 5, you can see on the screen that it says administrator: CYN to administrator: DARKXWOLF17, which is Uzi’s username
I am really jealous of the built in clock/alarm that the drones have
i hope this goes viral and then everyone ever watches murder drones and then everyone can talk about it together in piece and harmony
p.s 4:55 i always figured that the picture was just burned during an attack by a disassembly drone at some point, rather than uzi's mom being a blob. if you look close enough, you can see some sharp lines that imply it just being a damaged photo.
0:34 Element animation was SUCH A GREAT PRODUCTION BACK THEN!!
I'm still waiting for like episode whatever but Jason the egg (i think) fighting agianst herobrine or something frrom my memeory
Glitch productions was founded by smg4
Great video overall, a little detail that I would like to remark is that Nori, Khan, and Uzi's photo in episode 1 where Nori looks like a black think with yellow liquid is probably the high corrosive murder drone tail acid that during some attack damaged to picture blackening and damaging Nori's part of the photo only leaving the zone of the arms intact, probably Nori looked like a normal worker drone, mostly.
the day before a new episode releases, I binge watch the entire series
1:13:03 she says ”Beau we got Nori`s kid here. Need more sedatives. Its bitey”
Thanks for that. Really helpful
I started watching Murder Drones since the pilot was 2 weeks old and I remember from memory the whole six episodes
When I saw "Plot Armor Detected", I knew I was gonna love Murder Drones
I just discovered this series and I'm completely in love with N and Uzi. I am praying that neither of them die! Also gonna be really sad when it's over. Thanks for the video, it actually helped clear up a couple things I was confused about.
you probably wont see this but how the robot hereditary thing works is the 2 parents put their code into the body of a child drone and once it's matured enough (i have no idea how they know if it's matured or not) it gets it's code and memories and stuff put into a worker drone body
Finally someone explained robo sex to me lol
@@InwardBisonYT also that picture, i dont think it was like a flesh monster, but i think it was just a rip
I went into this show out of pure boredom not expecting anything from it and it turned out to be a work of absolute genius. The plot is interesting and the animation is mesmorizing. What surprised me the most was the humor. They managed to balance a serious plot with some absolutely ridiculous humor. The character development is even present. At first I thought I was going to hate Uzi, but she is surprisingly human and reveals traits of vulnerability despite coming off as a total bratty rebellios tough girl. And then N, despite being a badass in his own right, is like a ray of sunshine throughout the series. He balances out the darkness of the series with his positive light hearted demeanor. And then the gradual romance between N and Uzi is quite charming, showing their character development as the series continues. And I love the facial expressions. They made these robots so human and relatable. Good series. Looking forward to the next episode.
i feel as if v's sacrifice was felt a little sudden too, and yeah, good character progression but the way it was done was kind of sloppy, i feel as if throught all the series she's a character that the writters were really struggling to really insert into the show properly, sure, a little dialogue here and there but not really enough, even more so when in the flashblack episode she's just stationary for basically the entire thing, so if she's really dead (definitely not btw, i agree so much with you lol) she really just goes out as a chracter that doesn't feel really complete
I really hope she becomes a zombie drone with some sort of mutation of absoulute solver
From episodes 1-3 they definitely remind me of both portal and the ALIENS games.
1: probably because this series is made in unreal engine, an engine used for games.
2: it just got that vibe.
Edit: and of course, the disassembly drones DO in fact remind me of the Xenomorph
I love this series, it actually makes the vampire teen love story original and for me, bearable

Here is some further information on Glitch:
Glitch Productions started with two brothers, one who owned a channel known as SMG4 - a SM64 Blooper channel - and one who was good with animation. They worked together and made some good quality stuff on the SMG4 channel. Then they hired a team of animators, who then started work on Meta Runner Season 1. At this point, the SMG4 channel was producing entire arcs of character building and movies about an hour long. Then they developed Season 2 of Meta Runner(I think?), and later Sunset Paradise.
After that concluded, they partnered with Liam Vickers - an animator who likes his murderous women with inhuman abilities - to create the Pilot episode (Now Episode 1) of Murder Drones. They then created Meta Runner Season 3, and then I think SMG4 had another arc thing. They then decided to develop more episodes of Murder Drones, getting up to Episode 6 out of 8 before wanting to develop and release The Amazing Digital Circus, which was partnered with Gooseworx, another animator who likes their colourful eyes and geometric shapes.
Whilst all of this is happening, Glitch decide to release a meeting with other animators in an event called GlitchX, happening in November. Some people argue that this is a driving factor of Indie Animation as a whole.
So that happened, and I am absolutely hyped for what Glitch is doing.
One queary, Glitch has over a Million subscribers, so I think Murder Drones is probably decently well-heard of.
0:19 but you didn’t say the name of the show in ur title.
Murder drones
11:57 her and the solver actually, you can see when they’re kids they don’t have yellow eyes they only got that after they were turned into disassembly drones
Now everyone know what it is
How so?
@@sharpie3811 it’s now millions of times more popular than it was when this video was made
@@ThereCanOnlyBeOneSonic I’m a idiot, I didn’t check the upload date 💀
You're close, but i think the photo is just burned out, its not a photo of solver nori as far as i know. So nori was probably carrying this photo when she got stuck with the nanite acid which put her in a lot of pain and khan mercy killed her.
In episode 5, uzi gets out of control not only because she needs oil, but also because she is also lonely that the murder drones fit in so long but she doesn't. Uzi has always been somewhat of a freak and this feeling gets overwhelming. That's why she turned the arrow into a weird alien thing guy, because everyone freaked out about her and one of them shot an arrow at her.
this aged like fine wine
finally, it is released
Giggle. Callback ping. (Continue Callback ping)
