Belatedly, adding my rants and notes about specific frames here, because I finally decided that I want them somewhere people can read them. This video is very much a love letter to bsd, a story I've been very passionate about for about six? seven? years. Some frames reference the anime/manga, and I really like having a lot of (maybe indirect) connections to the lyrics when I make animations, so you can look into that if you want. For this video I also wanted to do something interesting with colors, which I've seen a person in the comments pick up on, and it made me extremely happy. 0:11 - so, the first two shots basically establish the purple/red parallel I decided to go with, with purple symbolizing change, and red being the past and/or trauma, it's up to interpretation and might apply to the characters I drew here differently. But you get the gist. Basically good/bad, but a little bit more nuanced. The lyrics come into it too, also mirroring and being a parallel to each other. Yosano is on the red frames mostly because I wanted to put Kyouka and Atsushi on the same one. They're a package deal, don't separate them :( I guess you could also say that both she and Atsushi were saved by Dazai in a way, so it would make sence to draw them together. It could all just be seen as a past/present parallel too, there are like. layers to it. 0:14 - obviously Dazai got this line, since that man cannot be honest for once and just covers every emotion ever with humor. Very fitting. I also have never drawn Dazai before this video except like one time in 2018 and now I'm a certified Dazai drawer after doing it for five months. yay. 0:19 - the first idea I had for this section wad a plain shot of Akutagava with dark red background before it cutting to his death. It would've been more fast-paced and, the colors would've been there for the whole "Akutagava sees Dazai as the most important and capable and /good/ person in his life and would die if he asked" thing, but I really like how it turned out in the end. It captures what I was going for well, I think. 0:24 - for the people in the background I specifically chose Mori, Koyo, Oda and Natsume, the adults who have influenced Dazai's teenage years the most, directly or not. And for 0:34, Kyouka, Atsushi, Yosano and Akutagava - all of the characters whose childhood trauma comes up as an important part of discussion of cycles of abuse in bsd. 1:02 - I mean, this is a line about dogs. I would've been a fool not to go there. And the "they don't understand me" bit too. It fits the three of them really well. When I got the idea to make this video I remembered these lyrics and went "ohh I'm gonna make it so angsty it's going to be awesome people would be so sad" (I'm people). I was thinking the exact same during that bit with Akutagava while redrawing all the manga panels for the background too. There's something about art that just makes you a little evil I think. I just want people to see/read something I made and feel emotional, I guess. 1:04 - something about this line always makes me so sad, even though I can't quite put my finger on it. You know the whole thing about the characters' eyes in the manga? How the light in them represents how much good they have in them as people? That's sort of what I was going for with these shots and focus on the eyes, how Dazai contemplates if he could ever become as good as Oda was and if it would make his life feel any different. If it would make the world itself love him more and be more kind to him. Oda's eyes are closed though, of course, because he's dead. 1:09 - it wasn't my plan initially, but I decided that this part really fit Kyouka and her desire to break away from the violence the mafia taught her and leave her old life behind. 1:12 - this line. You know how Atsushi always feels like he needs an excuse to continue living, like he needs to justify his own existence by protecting people. And Akutagava doesn't exactly blame Dazai for what happened to him, but he definitely should. I think about that a lot. And I decided to use the red/blue theme they have going on for Atsushi and Akutagava in the anime, because I absolutely love it. 1:18 - this part doesn't have much to do with lyrics, I just really wanted some more of the Yosano and Kyouka parallel. Both were regular kids with families in their childhood (presumably for Yosano, but she definitely did live a normal life), both were directly or not used by Mori, both got out and found their happiness in the Agency. I really want them to interact more in canon, I feel like they are such good friends and want to see more of them :( 1:33 - fun thing I noticed when rewatching the anime last time is that when Dazai and Atsushi are celebrating defeating Fyodor on the ship, they have differently colored drinks, implying that Atsushi isn't drinking alcohol, I guess? I liked this detail so much that I kept it, even though you can barely see it. The rest is pretty self-explanatory, I think. The sequence at 1:46 heavily references the ending of season three of bsd, which always makes me super emotional :') this sure is a wall of text, thank you if you got through all of this and thanks for watching.
Omg I didn’t even realise the lyrics at 1:12 - “I need an alibi to justify” just applies to Atsushi’s character so much, and then Akutagawa’s line afterwards :c I keep coming back to this animatic realising new things each time, it’s so great!
Bro it describes the essence of Osamu's character so well. All his struggle to forgive himself, the beauty of his scars, his fear to lose someone close to him again, to trip down this hill and see the blood on his hands again, his love, sensitivity and caring nature, the cycle of forgiveness he started once Oda saved him. Damn. It takes a lot of dedication and empathy to understand him, you know. As a fellow bsd enjoyer and a someone for whom Dazai means a lot, I take my hat off. Titanic work was put into this, ladies and gentlemen.
I FEEL THE NEED TO TELL YOU THAT THIS COMMENT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME OKAY. Dazai is pretty much The Character for me in terms of how his struggles are written, and I'm so glad you think I could portray that well. It took me literal years to see some aspects of him and I'm sure there are going to be more to come, bsd is just that type of story. A lot of it comes from me analyzing my own mental health and views on life too, so he means a lot to me. I think that his character arc, if you look past special abilities and saving the world drama, is very relatable, with a lot of commentary on being human and dealing with life, grief and happiness. Again, thank you for your comment, I did put a lot of effort into showing all of that, and it makes me really happy that you took the time to write it.
@@faksyan BRO IKR. Never in the world have I seen such a masterpiece of a character, that is HUMAN, the irony, IN EVERY FREAKING WAY. Even in the fact you can't read him right away like the others. He's the first and the last character ever that I couldn't predict instantly or tell what he was thinking only from the way he moved, talked or interacted with others. He gives you these pieces of the whole puzzle one by one, and the more you know about him, the more you fall in love. Bro, I was SHOCKED and torn to shreds when I first realized what I just witnessed after his backstory. He was strong enough not only to change his ways, but to wait for damned 4 years in silence and pain to clean himself from his past, and then HE LITERALLY CHANGED AND CONTINUES TO DO SO. I wish Dazai realized fully just what a mission God put on his shoulders and how important it is. He is on the way to do it, though, so I think we should just wait for his redemption arc to come to an end finally. It's not so long until Kafka reveals all the hidden magnificence and beauty of his soul and I will be screaming my lungs out once he will finally accept that his past mistakes don't defy who he is and he has so many people he can trust right now. Bro, I can talk about him for literal ages. That's not even all
I’ll be honest, don’t watch the show, but your art style is so pleasing to look out! I know the animations took ages and I hope it gets all the attention it deserves! Keep up the great art, hope you’re doing well :]
IM SORRY??? THE WAY MY JAW DROPPED WHEN IT SAID WPULD U LIKE ME A LITTLE BETTER IF THEY WERE WHITE LIKE YOURS??? THE WAY YOU DREW IT AHHHH LITERALLY DYING RN THIS IS SO GOOD
This is so beautiful and amazing oh my gosh. ❤ I especially like the part where Dazai talks, and the part towards the end where it cycles through Dazai -> Akutagawa -> Atsushi -> Kyouka finding peace with Demon Snow
This is a beautiful tribute to BSD in every way. So much love and life was in every moment. It felt like every charcter's emotional journey was playing out all over again, all so fast and in such stunning color. It's bittersweet how Dazai was able to "help out some orphans" as Oda hoped and see the world as more beautiful, yet may never escape his depression. I've had depression my entire life, randomly flipping between moderate and severe, so his character really reasonates with me. Joyless smiles, persistent suicidal ideations, and a willingness to forgive everyone but yourself, all regardless of how good your life is, have never been portraried so well in any other story I know. Thank you so much for bringing him to life in this animation.
Thank you, truly, for a comment like that. I personally find a lot of comfort in Dazai and the portrayal of his depression, and especially how it puts a difference between suicide ideation and actively wanting to go through with it. Because, despite all that he tries, Dazai never really does, and I don't see that being discussed nearly enough. I think about Dazai's speech in Meursault a lot, about how he and Fyodor aren't the ones that make the world turn, and instead it's the people who keep fighting, while they "scream within the storm of uncertainty and run with flowing blood", and I can't help but think that Dazai IS such a person. That he himself keeps on living, despite everything, that he himself isn't above being human, and even though he doesn't see himself as one, there are people around him who can maybe help him see it one day. It's that idea that you can live with depression while still having someone care for you, and love you, even if you probably never be cured, is what makes me really hopeful. There is another line in bsd about how you have to tell people it's okay for them to live if you want them to live, and I think about that a lot too. It's awful that the world wants you to just get over your depression and be magically cured, because you might never be able to, and that should be okay. It is okay. Because I think you still can find happiness in that, even though a lot of people tell you the opposite. We'll be fine. Thank you for your comment again, it means a lot to me.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!! Your art style is pure eye candy and the way you animate is just so GOOD. And the colors?.. the colors are so beautiful I can’t even describe how happy they make me (THEY JUST WORK SO WELL TOGETHER..) This is so impressive I cannot even put it into words at this point!
YOU CAN LITERALLY SEE THE INTENTION AND CARE PUT INTO EVERY SCENE!!! the symbolism and feels were amazing on a another level! and all the characters look adorable in your art style. I’m glad to see a fellow person with a severe bungo stray dogs hyperfixtation haha
The animation is simple, yet so heavy with meaning in detail. I hope you get more attention than you’re currently getting. This is amazingly done, well dome. ❤
There's so much emotion, so much nostalgia; the colors and the lighting perfectly encapsulate each scene, and the theme of forgiveness in one's self and of re learning the value of life seem so prominent here; Dazai, Kyoka, Yosano, Akutagawa and of course Atsushi, they are all protagonists of their own story, and this animation beautifully displayed that :') it gave me chills, I love your style and I love the narrative you told to us through your art, thank you for this
THIS IS SO UNBELIEVABLY GOOD??? i didnt expect the whole thing to be animated like this, and i ADORE your lineart. i love the sketchy style that it has aagghggh AND THE ART ISNT THE ONLY AMAZING THING!!! i love how much this hit me in the feels,,, everything at the start about dazai was so cool and so sad and it was sooo wellmade. and the part where it shows the characters growing up from their bad childhoods and being happyyy AGGGHHHHHH BRILLIANT!!!! I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! THANK YOU FOR UR SERVICE!!!
Thank you so much for your comment :') I'm so glad the lineart stood out to you, I specifically decided to go with something different from what I usually do, because bsd is a very special and important story for me. I wanted it all to feel really emotional and hopeful, so I'm very happy I managed to do that :)
I find it really impressive that this video encompasses the tragedy and beauty of the series, mixing the dark and light moments, especially those short frames with food and locations ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!!! There's honestly a bunch of super cool and thought-out bsd animatics, and I'm really glad people consider mine one those. And I will, that's the idea :D
This is my favorite animation ever, and i love how well the art style and events match the lyrics. It’s crazy how detailed and well thought this was. This is so underrated.
You are illegally underated and need way more subs this is amazing, the colors an everything, Its very smooth and I could watch this forever This makes me want to re watch bsd but I know I'll cry again if I do
HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS MASTERPIECE BEFORE?!?!? GOD DAMN RUclips ALGORITHM! Seriously I love this so much, it's incredible, your art style is so clean and expressive and the moments you picked were perfect. I love this song and always thought it fit for BSD so seeing this was such an awesome surprise. Also its really nice to see an animatic with a bit more focus on the Dark Era, it is such an important part of the story but it gets over looked so often. I love how you also included characters like Yosano and Kyouka. I'm rambling but TL;DR I love this, hope you make more bsd animatics!
Thank you so much! Dark Era is so good, it's baffling that it's not a part of the main manga tbh, I'm really glad they adapted it in the anime, it has so much impact on the whole story and the characters. I love Yosano and Kyouka with all my heart, they are such wonderful characters, really hope they'll have more spotlight soon. Happy you enjoyed the video!
WHERE ARE ALL THE VIEWS, WHERE ARE ALL THE LIKES- this is honestly an AMAZING animatic, every detail was awesome, and oh my gosh your artstyle >>>> great work, keep it up! :D (i too am hyperfixated on it and i understand how it influences you personally fr)
Thank you!! Bsd is something that's difficult NOT to fixate on, honestly. They really put something different in it for it to be that appealing (it's the trauma)
Ok I’m literally gonna go insane like this is actually so well animated and the effort and shading makes me wanna scream this has to be at least one of the best bsd animation vids I have ever seen.. and honestly in my opinion I think you deserve so much more! Your quite underrated and your style omg its literally so good
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG??? I CAN RANT AB ALL THE LIL DETAILS. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. THE PARTS AT THE END WITH AKU AND GIN??? ATSUSHI AND THE TIGER, KYOUKA PETTING HIS HEAD, DAZAIS COAT ON HIM, KYOKA GETTING WELCOMED INTO THE AGENCY SAAGHDGCHDJWKJHVFDCBNMSDKEF
Aaaa I can't express how happy it makes me that you looked at the details here so much :') I did put a lot of stuff into the fast-paced section, so I wasn't sure if anyone would go back to look at all of that, I'm really glad you did :)
I'm a little sorry but also this was what I was going for (I'm pretty sure I also did cry at a point while making this), so that's a great compliment, thank you so much.
You animation style, coloring style, all of it is ughhhh 😭💖 You tell BSD’s stories in your video so well thank you for thisss You deserve more attention for this it’s amazing
i've commented on this before awhile back but i just wanted to come back and say that this animatic has grown to be one of my favorites of all time. your depictions of everything are so lovely and so so very soft and everytime i watch it im grinning but also sobbing my eyes out i love it sm your work is stunning
Can't explain how much this means to me, so thank you. I put a lot of thoughts and emotions into this video, and it makes me so happy that I could share some of that.
Thank you! I watched some of your videos, and I really like the Nonsense Speak bsd one, I think the composition and how it's animated is very cool. I love Ango with all my heart, and think people tend to leave him out when talking about Dazai's past, so thank you for commenting on that! Hope you don't get discouraged about drawing, I wish you luck with your art stuff :)
THIS IS AMAZING MAKES ME WANT TO CRY, GIGGLE, AND REWATCH IT OVER AND OVER!! I love the storytelling and composition so much!! Your art style, the choice of color, and animation are so pleasant too!! You’re a wonderful artist! This is so impressive ❤
OMG I LOVE THIS IS SO GOOD AND YOUR ART STYLE IS JUST GIEGIDGDI istg there needs to be more bsd animatics it's hard to find non skk ones (not that i don't like em i love them) so this is just like GKSSGIDGIDGI IT'S SO AMAZING I LOVE IT ❤❤
Thank you so much!! Hard agree on the skk animatics and ship stuff in general, don't mind any of it, but there is so much interesting stuff in bsd, and I think you can never have too much diversity in fan content. I've already seen people make a lot of amazing stuff though, it's always really creative
Thank you!! This was something I wanted to do in the beginning, to include maybe a bunch of photos of different characters with each other, so no one would be left out. But then it felt a bit unfair to Kyouka, because she would be getting less frames than everyone else, and I just love her too much to do that. But Akutagava definitely does have a happy ending off-screen, be sure of it!!!
Omg the AMOUNT of DETAIL AND THOUGHT put into this is insane!! The animation is so clean and beautiful- I especially loved akutagawa’s scene of him growing up 🥺🥺 - as with atsushi and kyouka. I honestly teared up a bit 🥲 Also- I love that all the food after 1:46 was from scenes in the show! Like the alcohol from lupin’s bar, atsushi’s chazuke, kyouka’s crepe, etc. There’s so many other things that I loved but probably won’t fit in this comment. All I can say is THANK YOU FOR BLESSING US WITH THIS ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for the nice comment! I also love Akutagava's scenes a lot, I really wanted to show that he actually has people he's close with and who love him, especially Gin, I think her role in his life is often overlooked, both in canon and in the fandom. The sequence with food was inspired by season 3 ending in particular, it always makes me super emotional, I really like how they focus on details in it :')
Actually I need to add on a little more after rewatching it again- I ADORE THE USE OF COLOURS. How in the beginning, atsushi and kyouka are shown in blue, whilst Akutagawa and yosano are shown in red- this is seen repeatedly later on too. I also like how the video in general starts off with reds, blacks, and more neutral tones, but then towards the end there’s lighter colours and it gains more vibrancy and warmth, making it seem like the characters have found their “homes”. Plus, in the scenes when it cycles through the characters,(dazai, akutagawa, atsushi, kyouka) the white background contrasts the previous dark colours in the beginning AND the lines are in a purple shade! Mixing the blue and the red! Paired with the music, it really gives it the feeling of healing. Sorry for the rant 😅
Oops- I was halfway through the second comment when you responded 😅😅 But seriously, thank YOU for this amazing animation. I love how you presented akutagawa, (the scene with him getting “killed” with all the memories in the background is absolutely magnificent and heartbreaking). I honestly aspire to be as thoughtful in my artwork as you were with this beautiful animation.❤❤❤
@@Myeyesareburning IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY THAT SOMEONE LOOKED INTO THE COLORS SERIOUSLY!!! I tried putting a bit of thought in color symbolism when I made videos before, but it was always pretty simple, and I wanted to go all-in here. Bsd is such as special case when it comes to everything, so I thought a lot about that, thank you SO much for commenting on it!!! The idea behind purple as in mix of the other colors I used was not intentional though, but it adds so much to it
@@Myeyesareburning it makes me super happy that you picked up on so much and took your time to write about it. I've been wanting to get better at metaphors/symbolism in my art for years, and I'm very glad you enjoyed my work so much :')
Oh my gosh I love your art style and how you color stuff it’s just so awesome! The way you drew atsushi and Dazai warms my heart aijakajamak- I hope your art gets more attention cus it’s amazing

This is stunning, fits so well. I love seeing how much of an impact bsd has on others too

OMG I LOVE HOW YOU MIXED THE LORE WITH THE SONG ILY BSD YOU DID SO WELL ON THIS❤❤❤
THIS MADE ME THINK
thats actually so good
I literally cried seeing this.
RHIS IS STUNNINF
This absolutely RADIATES effort and I am here for it
HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO COOL OH MY GOD???? WHY ARE YOU UNDERRATED IM SO MAD.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!! Your art style is pure eye candy and the way you animate is just so GOOD. And the colors?.. the colors are so beautiful I can’t even describe how happy they make me (THEY JUST WORK SO WELL TOGETHER..) This is so impressive I cannot even put it into words at this point!
Thank you so much! I did really want to make something interesting with the colors for this video, so I'm glad you liked it :D
this video gave me CHILLS. it's so genuinely well animated, and pleasing to the eye. i ABSOLUTELY ADORE the symbolism included in this!!
Thank you so much!!
YOU CAN LITERALLY SEE THE INTENTION AND CARE PUT INTO EVERY SCENE!!! the symbolism and feels were amazing on a another level! and all the characters look adorable in your art style. I’m glad to see a fellow person with a severe bungo stray dogs hyperfixtation haha
Thank you so much, it makes me really happy you enjoyed it!!
This animation is my hopecore
OMFG THIS IS THE MOST PERFECT ANIMATION I'VE EVER SEEN YOU DEFINITELY DESERVE MORE.
I'M CRYING I LOVE IT SO MUCH 😭💖💖💖
I LOVE it!!! This is a masterpiece and it has to get more attention!! Great animation. :D
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!! Really glad you liked it :)
The animation is simple, yet so heavy with meaning in detail. I hope you get more attention than you’re currently getting. This is amazingly done, well dome. ❤
There's so much emotion, so much nostalgia; the colors and the lighting perfectly encapsulate each scene, and the theme of forgiveness in one's self and of re learning the value of life seem so prominent here; Dazai, Kyoka, Yosano, Akutagawa and of course Atsushi, they are all protagonists of their own story, and this animation beautifully displayed that :') it gave me chills, I love your style and I love the narrative you told to us through your art, thank you for this
Thank you so much for such a nice comment, I'm glad you enjoyed it :')
THIS IS SO UNBELIEVABLY GOOD???
i didnt expect the whole thing to be animated like this, and i ADORE your lineart. i love the sketchy style that it has aagghggh
AND THE ART ISNT THE ONLY AMAZING THING!!! i love how much this hit me in the feels,,, everything at the start about dazai was so cool and so sad and it was sooo wellmade. and the part where it shows the characters growing up from their bad childhoods and being happyyy AGGGHHHHHH BRILLIANT!!!! I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! THANK YOU FOR UR SERVICE!!!
Thank you so much for your comment :') I'm so glad the lineart stood out to you, I specifically decided to go with something different from what I usually do, because bsd is a very special and important story for me. I wanted it all to feel really emotional and hopeful, so I'm very happy I managed to do that :)
this animation reminded me why i love bsd so much. thank you, it’s beautiful
This is amazing in very single way possible
YOUR ARTSTYLE LOOKS SO YUMMY!! /POS
OMNOMNOMNOM :3
I find it really impressive that this video encompasses the tragedy and beauty of the series, mixing the dark and light moments, especially those short frames with food and locations ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
This goes so hard oh wow
THIS IS SO AMAZING!
This is amazing!
THIS IS SO UNDERRATED WTF!!! THE VIEWS AND LIKES SHOULD BE MORE THAN THAT!!! EVERYTHING IN THE VID IS JUST CHEFKISS!! ‼️😭🤌🏻
THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!! I !!!!! AM SPEECHLESS!!!!!!!!
One of the most incredible BSD animatics I have ever seen in my short life, keep doing videos like this :)
Thank you!!! There's honestly a bunch of super cool and thought-out bsd animatics, and I'm really glad people consider mine one those. And I will, that's the idea :D
ohh this is so cute and well done 🥺🥺🥺🥺 i lovev this a lot
Thank you so much!!! I've seen your videos before, they are super cool, it's really nice to hear that from you :D
@faksyan oh dude thank you😭🫶
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG UNDERATED ARTIST
It's breathtaking! It's amazing to see how much effort goes into it.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! very good vibe ? idk but it was very good!!!!
That was so FUCKING good. Fhshabasjcjd
THIS IS SO GOOD???
THIS WAS REALLY WELL DONE 😭😭
best bsd animation ever!!! i loved this soo much!!!
MY GOOOOOOODNESS
This is amazing
I love it so much
I LOVE IT, SUCH A MASTERPICE!
This is my favorite animation ever, and i love how well the art style and events match the lyrics. It’s crazy how detailed and well thought this was. This is so underrated.
You are illegally underated and need way more subs this is amazing, the colors an everything, Its very smooth and I could watch this forever
This makes me want to re watch bsd but I know I'll cry again if I do
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE, I LOVE IT SO MUCH
THIS LITERALLY GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS OMG!!!! your artstyle is so beautiful ❤❤❤
THIS DESERVES SO MUCH LOVE OMG❤❤❤❤ Amazing work really outstanding☺️
HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS MASTERPIECE BEFORE?!?!? GOD DAMN RUclips ALGORITHM!
Seriously I love this so much, it's incredible, your art style is so clean and expressive and the moments you picked were perfect. I love this song and always thought it fit for BSD so seeing this was such an awesome surprise.
Also its really nice to see an animatic with a bit more focus on the Dark Era, it is such an important part of the story but it gets over looked so often. I love how you also included characters like Yosano and Kyouka.
I'm rambling but TL;DR I love this, hope you make more bsd animatics!
Thank you so much! Dark Era is so good, it's baffling that it's not a part of the main manga tbh, I'm really glad they adapted it in the anime, it has so much impact on the whole story and the characters. I love Yosano and Kyouka with all my heart, they are such wonderful characters, really hope they'll have more spotlight soon. Happy you enjoyed the video!
A masterpiece
WHERE ARE ALL THE VIEWS, WHERE ARE ALL THE LIKES- this is honestly an AMAZING animatic, every detail was awesome, and oh my gosh your artstyle >>>> great work, keep it up! :D (i too am hyperfixated on it and i understand how it influences you personally fr)
Thank you!! Bsd is something that's difficult NOT to fixate on, honestly. They really put something different in it for it to be that appealing (it's the trauma)
@@faksyan yesss bsd tickles my brain barely any other manga/anime can (ofc its the trauma why wouldn't it be the trauma :])
This is achingly beautiful, keep up with the great works!
Thank you so much!!
This is so unbelievably underrated, Great job! Your art, and animation in this is wonderful!
my fav song + my fav anime
Ok I’m literally gonna go insane like this is actually so well animated and the effort and shading makes me wanna scream this has to be at least one of the best bsd animation vids I have ever seen.. and honestly in my opinion I think you deserve so much more! Your quite underrated and your style omg its literally so good
Thank you so much!!
I have crazy goosebumps rn. This is so amazing!
THIS IS SO GOOD OMG??? I CAN RANT AB ALL THE LIL DETAILS. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH. THE PARTS AT THE END WITH AKU AND GIN??? ATSUSHI AND THE TIGER, KYOUKA PETTING HIS HEAD, DAZAIS COAT ON HIM, KYOKA GETTING WELCOMED INTO THE AGENCY SAAGHDGCHDJWKJHVFDCBNMSDKEF
Aaaa I can't express how happy it makes me that you looked at the details here so much :') I did put a lot of stuff into the fast-paced section, so I wasn't sure if anyone would go back to look at all of that, I'm really glad you did :)
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH AAAH LIVE LAUGH LOVE BSD AND YOUR ANIMATION :3
THIS IS SO CUTE!!!!
i adore this
Dios, está increíble esto debería ser más viral, es una de las animaciones más increíbles que he visto de bsd.
THIS IS SO GOOD WHAT????? THE ARTSTYLE IS SO
Thank you!!
This is amazin omgg
YOU ACTUALLY MADE ME CRY THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
I'm a little sorry but also this was what I was going for (I'm pretty sure I also did cry at a point while making this), so that's a great compliment, thank you so much.
I LOVE THIS SM YOU’RE SO TALENTED!
AAA I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! your art style is so soft!!! and all the shots of lupin!!! ouughgh!!! i will cry!!!
Thank you so much!! The Lupin shots were some of my favorites to draw :')
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! I swear the art style is so nice to see. No wonder how much effort you put into this!
Thank you! :)
INSANE WORK FRRRR
You animation style, coloring style, all of it is ughhhh 😭💖
You tell BSD’s stories in your video so well thank you for thisss
You deserve more attention for this it’s amazing
Thank you so much!!
i've commented on this before awhile back but i just wanted to come back and say that this animatic has grown to be one of my favorites of all time. your depictions of everything are so lovely and so so very soft and everytime i watch it im grinning but also sobbing my eyes out i love it sm your work is stunning
Can't explain how much this means to me, so thank you. I put a lot of thoughts and emotions into this video, and it makes me so happy that I could share some of that.
I don't have the words to express how much I love this 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵
this is so fucking good oh my god, thank you for making this i love it so so so much
Ikdmsmsksjiq THIS IS SO COOL OMG IM SO SPEECHLESS JAW DROPPED IM IN LOVE W THIS!!!!GREAT WORK!!🎉🎉🎉
Holy shit I’m jealous of how good this is lol. This is just so good I love that dazai has Ango in the the flashbacks and not just Oda
Thank you! I watched some of your videos, and I really like the Nonsense Speak bsd one, I think the composition and how it's animated is very cool. I love Ango with all my heart, and think people tend to leave him out when talking about Dazai's past, so thank you for commenting on that! Hope you don't get discouraged about drawing, I wish you luck with your art stuff :)
@@faksyan awe thank type you so much that means a lot! Amazing work
THIS IS AMAZING
MAKES ME WANT TO CRY, GIGGLE, AND REWATCH IT OVER AND OVER!!
I love the storytelling and composition so much!! Your art style, the choice of color, and animation are so pleasant too!! You’re a wonderful artist! This is so impressive ❤
This is such a nice comment, thank you so much 😭 really happy you enjoyed it :)
OMG I LOVE THIS IS SO GOOD AND YOUR ART STYLE IS JUST GIEGIDGDI istg there needs to be more bsd animatics it's hard to find non skk ones (not that i don't like em i love them) so this is just like GKSSGIDGIDGI IT'S SO AMAZING I LOVE IT ❤❤
Thank you so much!! Hard agree on the skk animatics and ship stuff in general, don't mind any of it, but there is so much interesting stuff in bsd, and I think you can never have too much diversity in fan content. I've already seen people make a lot of amazing stuff though, it's always really creative
this was so fucking amazing
I love this :)
This is amazing!!
Im inlove. U are so underestimated...😢
In the final scene I wished that akutagawa got a happy ending too 💔
Anyway you art is a heart melting I really like it keep going ❤
Thank you!! This was something I wanted to do in the beginning, to include maybe a bunch of photos of different characters with each other, so no one would be left out. But then it felt a bit unfair to Kyouka, because she would be getting less frames than everyone else, and I just love her too much to do that. But Akutagava definitely does have a happy ending off-screen, be sure of it!!!
@@faksyan awww that is adorable tnx ❤
this is so great.. i really like the way you showcased the Big Mentor Chain here, no other way to describe it
Thank you!
@@faksyan this is so poignant, i can feel the way you sympathise with characters... so full of love
@@sh00t1ng-st4r this is such a nice compliment, thank you 😭 these characters really do mean a lot to me
I LOVE THIS
I THOUGHT U GOT MORE SUBS?? BUT OMG THE ANIMATION IS SO CLEAN AND PRETTY I LOVE THEM SM U DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION
Omg the AMOUNT of DETAIL AND THOUGHT put into this is insane!! The animation is so clean and beautiful- I especially loved akutagawa’s scene of him growing up 🥺🥺 - as with atsushi and kyouka. I honestly teared up a bit 🥲
Also- I love that all the food after 1:46 was from scenes in the show! Like the alcohol from lupin’s bar, atsushi’s chazuke, kyouka’s crepe, etc.
There’s so many other things that I loved but probably won’t fit in this comment. All I can say is THANK YOU FOR BLESSING US WITH THIS ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for the nice comment! I also love Akutagava's scenes a lot, I really wanted to show that he actually has people he's close with and who love him, especially Gin, I think her role in his life is often overlooked, both in canon and in the fandom. The sequence with food was inspired by season 3 ending in particular, it always makes me super emotional, I really like how they focus on details in it :')
Actually I need to add on a little more after rewatching it again-
I ADORE THE USE OF COLOURS.
How in the beginning, atsushi and kyouka are shown in blue, whilst Akutagawa and yosano are shown in red- this is seen repeatedly later on too.
I also like how the video in general starts off with reds, blacks, and more neutral tones, but then towards the end there’s lighter colours and it gains more vibrancy and warmth, making it seem like the characters have found their “homes”.
Plus, in the scenes when it cycles through the characters,(dazai, akutagawa, atsushi, kyouka) the white background contrasts the previous dark colours in the beginning AND the lines are in a purple shade! Mixing the blue and the red!
Paired with the music, it really gives it the feeling of healing.
Sorry for the rant 😅
Oops- I was halfway through the second comment when you responded 😅😅
But seriously, thank YOU for this amazing animation. I love how you presented akutagawa, (the scene with him getting “killed” with all the memories in the background is absolutely magnificent and heartbreaking).
I honestly aspire to be as thoughtful in my artwork as you were with this beautiful animation.❤❤❤
@@Myeyesareburning IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY THAT SOMEONE LOOKED INTO THE COLORS SERIOUSLY!!! I tried putting a bit of thought in color symbolism when I made videos before, but it was always pretty simple, and I wanted to go all-in here. Bsd is such as special case when it comes to everything, so I thought a lot about that, thank you SO much for commenting on it!!! The idea behind purple as in mix of the other colors I used was not intentional though, but it adds so much to it
@@Myeyesareburning it makes me super happy that you picked up on so much and took your time to write about it. I've been wanting to get better at metaphors/symbolism in my art for years, and I'm very glad you enjoyed my work so much :')
ВЫ ТАКИЕ КЛЕВЫЕ!! >>33 у вас очень запоминающаяся анимация, налеюсь, ваши работы увидят многие!!! нянянмьбмьмьм))
О, русские
THIS IS AMAZING HOLYY!! SO PRETTY
So beautiful
OMFG WHY HAVW I NEVER SEEN THIS BEFOE
Oh my gosh I love your art style and how you color stuff it’s just so awesome! The way you drew atsushi and Dazai warms my heart aijakajamak- I hope your art gets more attention cus it’s amazing
Thank you so much, that means a lot :')
