I actually got emotional at "Vox Machina, FUCK SHIT UP!"
This was the one fight I was looking forward to this season and they absolutely delivered.
they over-delivered... And THE ending of this fight.. my god ._.
I literally got chills
As Scanlan said last season, they’re Vox Machina, they fuck shit it up.
@@Niero284690 STROOOOOOOOOOONGJAAAAAAAW
I just love that it was a direct quote from the campaign. Grog realized he couldn't win on his own, so that was the call to action in pure Grog eloquence.
I cried when Vex asked Grog if he wanted to do something stupid because I knew one of my favorite moments was coming up AND IT SURPASSED MY EXPECTATIONS 🤩🥰
One could say they FUCKED SHIT UP
Yes.
To quote Liam, “POETIC JUSTICE!!!!!!”
NATURAL 20!
@@Surgenium and wasn't Grog down to like single digits for health?
Let's all thank Liam for sharing with us the Best. Present. Ever.

@jennabentle3668 They started playing DnD for Liams birthday, and now we see what has come of that birthday.
@@jjcritter99 The original home game started as Liam's birthday gift.
@@jjcritter99 Liam o'brien wanted to play dnd with his friends for his birthday. That 'one shot' game created the media monster that is Critical Role.
His Birthday present may be the best Birthday present of all time, thinking how much enjoyment it has brought to so many people across the world
@@mrramtastic7757 very fitting for someone as sensitive as Liam.
Shit rocks. We went hard on Season 2, and your reactions have filled our hearts with joy. ❤ to ya’ll
You and Titmouse have surpassed yourselves. Bravo, sir!
Man, I’m so glad they’re checking out these reactions ❤❤❤
This is so wholesome.
Vex pokeballing Grog onto Kevdak is one of THE BEST how do you wanna do this-es in the ENTIRE VOX MACHINA CAMPAIGN
The only other one that comes anywhere near close is the "How do you, Vox Machina, want to do this?" in episode 68. You know the one. IYKYK.
Agreed
The sheer fact that this show can make grown men cry with the phrase "I...would like..to...RAAAAGE!!!!" shows how great it is
Sam Riegel didn't have to go as absurdly hard as he has for the songs this season, but he did it anyway. Absolute banger after banger, ya got your power ballads, ya got your country songs, ya got your ass kickin' metal tracks, ya got your jaunty tavern drinking songs...
Absolute fucking legend. What a bard.
He absolutely used Season 2 as an excuse to sing more. 🤣
every week at the table, he brings his all to the reading of the sponsors. He is a real life bard and this is their passion project. We souldn't be surprised he goes so hard. still, he knocked this out of the park.
His brother in law Peter Habib deserves all the love!! He’s been working with Sam on his music from the beginning, I believe!
The Killbox was one of my favorite episodes of CR1 and I'm so happy with this adaptation in their show. FOR STRONGJAW!!!
POETIC JUSTICE!!!!!
killbox is one time i keep thinking "someone gonna die, someone is defiently gonna die"
@@Jackie-McCann *incoherent celebrations*
This is my favorite episode of the entire series so far, out of both seasons. Absolutely incredible recreation of arguably the best moments of all of campaign 1. The shot of Percy on the roof with the fire behind him is one of the rawest animated shots I’ve ever seen. HUGE ups to titmouse for this one.
One of the best moments of Campaign 1 is Laura/Vex sending Travis/Grog out of the poke ball mid air, and him rolling a Nat 20 on the final attack. You couldn't script something better.
That’s why I hope we get to see Search for Grog. 😊
Let us not forget the fact Grog had 1 HP left when he was scooped up, rolled that nat 20 on the fall attack, murdered Kevdak, and the immediately died from fall damage. Utterly ridiculous and epic and Titmouse has done us major justice.
God I can not wait for the soundtrack for this season to come out, this shit rocks.
Neal Acree does not get enough love, the S1 OST went hard and can’t wait to listen to this season’s in full.
Adam, at 13:05 when Jay said as the Matron of Ravens “I’d like to speak to your manager.”, you had the PERFECT opportunity to reply as Vax, “You ARE my manager!”
The full team fight scene in this episode is the best action I’ve seen in a while, absolutely loved it and how much of a badass the entire team was throughout it!
Me, at least 37 times while watching this episode: THE PVIEWD BOYS ARE GONNA BE SO HYPE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay I know I'm extremely biased, but this is one of the most fantastic episodes of television I've seen in quite some time. The studio went NUUUUUUTS on this and I couldn't have asked for more.
The entire episode is just "In case you were wondering if shit rocks, shit rocks."
10:23 I just love how Bad News carries like thunder in the background, just this sound of you know something VERY loud just happened :D
Fun facts - that's Travis Willingham chanting 'rage' during the fight song. Grog had 20 hp when Vex pulled the mors ab alto, and the Herd of Storms wasn't going to stop even if he dropped to 0 hp. Also, he took about 20 fall damage, which is why Pike said that he needs to work on his landing. If anyone but Grog had killed Kevdak, the Herd of Storms wouldn't have stopped fighting.
Actually, he was at 4 HP, not 1. How do I know this?
Because if you rewatch the episode from the campaign, Grog takes 25 damage from falling. Then Travis says, "That puts me Unconscious, and 21 points under."
Which means he had 4 HP when Vex Poke-balled him for the drop attack.
Edit: I just checked and confirmed: Grog took 25 fall damage, and ended up at -21 HP.
The episode is C1 E52, at roughly 2:30:10 into the episode.
@@isaiahwelch8066 Thank you for the correction.
It was either a Vox Talkina episode or the Campaign 1 wrap-up, where the cast was asking Matt questions, and he explained that if anyone other than Grog had killed Kevdak the Herd of Storms would have kept fighting, refusing to accept an outsider as their new leader. However, Grog was known to them, so when he killed Kevdak, becoming their leader, they were by tradition obligated to listen to him.
Vox Machina. FUCK. SHIT. UUUUUUUP!!!!
There are a lot of iconic lines in Critical Role, few of them encompass an entire campaign as much as that one. It's a battle cry, it's a statement of fact, it's a warning, it's a inspirational speech, it's a cry for help, it's an affirmation of friendship.
I love all the Pike and Grog interactions. Their friendship is just so pure. They just... they love each other so much and so intensely and I love that the show is really letting that shine.
Also, being a massive Perc'ahlia shipper, loved all the little nods in the fight scene to the two of them having each other's backs as the ranged fighters of the team. Even Vex bamfing Trinket out right by Percy, totally just because that was on the way and not at all to give him a little extra protection.
And Kiki actually took some initiative and didn't trip over her words asking Vax to dance. Poor Kiki.
Looking forward to the next two reactions.
Adam's reaction to Grog's impalement was exactly mine! Also, his over-the-top delight at Percy's awesomeness in the fight was a joy to behold. Great reaction video, guys!
And THAT is why this fight needed a whole episode.
This episode made me SO HAPPY! They freaking NAILED this epic moment so hard! I had tears streaming down my face the whole time. lol The team coming together to support one of their own in an epic showdown just hits me right in the feels. Loved it!
The emotional high I got during the Kevdak was so powerful that it got me through my day of work. It was everything I had hoped for and more, bless everyone who worked on this episode and giving 200% to give us this episode.
Been waiting all day for this to be posted, amazing fight for Grog!!!!!! The best rage yet with that bulk up.....and the finisher. Dear. God........
The metal song actually slaps so hard. That battle scene was beyond epic
This episode is getting 2/2 Captain America “I understood that reference” gifs. I gotchu Jay, with your obscure children’s adventure film references 😉
That episode was so metal, calling on your friends to "F*ck shit up" was amazing and the music, I wanted to join in. And always dance with the pretty lady especially if she asks you.
"He's like five of you right now" XD XD XD One of the best Nat 20s of all the campaigns!!! I remember Travis rolling a Nat 1 and Nat 20 on this- thank the Gods for Recklass Attack! This was such a great visualisation of the fight and by the Gods it was intense! I love your honest and visceral reactions to this. Always look forward to your vids and looking forward to seeing you react to the last two episodes (oh boy...).
Adam's vibe is all of ours.
"I'm daddy?!" is the Scanlan-est thing he could've said
One of the best Natural 20s of the campaign, Travis’s (Grog) Nat 20 against Kevdak than Laura’s (Vex) pokeball with Grog free falling to split that fucker in two!!! As Laim screamed in that moment, “POETIC JUSTICE”!
Man, theres nothing better than seeing how effin cool these episodes are myself, then seeing other critters, and even not critters watch how effin awesome it is. You guys are a dedicated watch for me, i gotta keep checking in here and see ma boys wig out at these animatics. What a time to be alive.
You should go back and watch the clip from that fight. Travis’ rolls and peoples faces. Pure gold
THE KEVDAK FIGHT WAS SO GOOD DEAR GOD
This episode: "In case you're wondering if shit rocks... shit fuckin rocks."
That fight was both fun and rough to watch during the campaign, because it definitely shifted several times between "we're badasses" to "we're getting our asses kicked." But when Vex put Grog in the gem...he was down to like 2 HP but Matt was so shocked, and then the drop down attack was a crit, even though Grog went unconscious because of it. So good.
But that VM attack montage was just...*chef kiss*
Adam's Percy fanboy nerdgasm at 10:32 had me fucking cackling.
Bro straight up UwU'd at Percy
I never thought “Fuck Shit Up” would inject so much serotonin! ❤
That fight between Grog and Kevdak was one of the best fight scenes with Scanlan's rock music in the middle built it even more
The necklace being used as a PokeBall is awesome!! I absolutely Loved this in the Livestream. Seeing it Animated was amazing!!
I had so much hype reading “The KillBox” on Friday. The original episode was a 3 and a half hour SLUGFEST. They did it so, so much justice with this adaptation. Absolutely loved it.
While sitting and watching and loving this, I do have two concerns. Jay, how's your left arm holding up? Adam hit it, squeezed it and aggressively tapped it a lot. Also, Adam, the tears, it's okay to openly cry at awesomeness.
All jokes. Love watching your reactions; thanks for the entertainment and matching enthusiasm for this show as me. Also, love Adam's reaction to the Matron of Ravens/goddess of death, fate, "not now, lady.", made me laugh the hardest for this reaction!
Season 3 can't come soon enough, holy balls!
And Mighty Nein!
Fighting an acid dragon shouldn't be too tough if they plan carefully- you know, cover all the bases.
Ouch.
God i've been waiting all day for this reaction, you guys are by far my favourite channel on here. The music of this eosidoe is amazing, the viking sounding dirge at the beginning and then the metal during the kill box, it's all brilliant!!
There is something about Travis raging scream that just bring a smile to my face, this episode was amazing...
Sometimes you play D&D and you want to crack jokes with your friends. Sometimes you want to explore the plot the DM has planned. Sometimes you want to improvise some dramatic scenes with other players. But sometimes (frankly most of the time) you want your character to look badass while doing badass shit. This episode really gets across what it feels like when your party is firing on all cylinders in combat.
"How do you account for acid spit, though?"
A shitload of baking soda. Duh.
I had the reactions of grog raging wit hthe mix of both of you! I LITERALLY stood up and yelled RAAAAAAAAGE! lmfao!
The heavy metal song was so unexpected, but it hit the right spot.
This was it for me! just amazing episode! first episode i watched was "the kill box" and was hooked ever since.. the animation, the story, I just love it so much...
Grog literally became Kratos and went full Spartan Rage when he said “I would like to RAAAAAAAGE!!!”
This episode was EVERYTHING. I got emotional when Grog stepped it up when he saw Pike about to get killed.
I'm happy you now see why everyone was so excited for the Killbox
Also, soooo many classic moments in this episode and I loved it all!!
The final 3 episodes of this season were so good! I can't wait to watch the next reactions!
This is definitely the best fight in the entire season, if not the whole show. The level of Sheer Concentrated Awesome was overwhelming!
And they've _Dramatically_ improved their balancing of all of the characters being involved in the fight at the same time.
I've been waiting for this to get animated since i first started c1 back in feb 2022. i cried so hard from how perfect it was.
8:36 Tears of Rage 🥰
I was so hyped for this episode, the stream was awesome, but I loved to see it animated, side note, im actually from Rockford IL, so that's funny
...and then I suddenly realized "Gaslight Warlock" is basically Mage the Ascension.
This whole episode was wonderful, I cried almost the whole fight because it was just as I had pictured it as it was happening
I saw this video was up and I immediately wanted to see Adam's reaction to THAT Percy shot
I think I look forward to your reactions to these episodes almost as much as the episodes. I hope you listened to the full credit song because... it's definitely a Shorthalt Special.
I wasn't sure how they were going to do justice to the Killbox, it's SUCH an epic fight, but holy shit did they ever deliver. Kevdak is every bit as intimidating as he needed to be, and I LOVE that the victory was by the barest margin (iirc in the game Grog's HP was down so low that the fall damage at the end might have killed him, it was an absolute Hail Mary move, it was either going to work or he was DONE, and they managed to capture that.)
Seeing Grog find his way to the answer of the "where does your strength come from?" HERE, rather than in Vasselheim, has so much more impact, I love that change.
Percy is my favourite nerd
Who doesn't love the iconic duo of Terrence and Jessica the cat people. Spinoff series when?
I was waiting. All Day. For this reaction. That Kevdak Fight. Whomped so much ayussss.
You guys just have the best reactions goddamn!
Grog having his epiphany moment was hype as fuck. I was literally pumping my hands to the beat through that whole sequence.
I catch myself looking at Jay every time something happens that foreshadows what’s to come. Like, I literally give the left side of my screen a knowing look as if to say “I can’t wait for it to click for Adam! You know what I mean, Jay!” 😂😂😂 I’m weird lol
It’s really fun when an indie, nerdy thing you started watching back in 2015 turns into this. As Jay so eloquently says over and over; “This sh*t rocks.”
When that rock beat kicks in? Hell yeah!
10:38 is Adam’s new computer background
NGL, a Scanlan Shorthalt banana-smuggler would be very tempting.
It now occurs to me that this is the first of two times one of Travis’s characters got impaled on a giant barbed thing
10:46 if you don't have Wall of Fire, homemade is fine
7:27 Last time we saw a bloody shield, we weren't too happy, this time, It's cool
8:55 If you thought he was big before...
9:34 One of the most badass moments in the campaign.
9:43 How do you make it even more badass? you add a rock riff as the battle music!
13:59 Jay knew, I knew that, it's also evident. Adam figured it out a little quicker than Scanlan!
Adam crying in this ep just cements why I love watchin' ya'lls content so much.
You invest so deep. Like the content has to be good, but you'll go all the way to get invested and a lot of people just "watch along" and you can tell the difference.
- Did he go for the head?
- No, He did Thor, but properly... and with the first time. 😈
This season is Badass A F
Percy said "here, have a wallpaper" 🤣
Each time he says, "Meanwhile,..." I keep thinking, about, "Grandma back on the range...."
That sounds like Sam and Travis sang that OC thrasher song
I. Would like to. Watch!
🎶🎸🤘
This episode was AMAZING!!!!
that rooster finally came home to roost for old Scanland.
Percy’s action scenes with the glasses flare is so anime I love it
That fight was so great!
Back in my Mech Warrior days, we called that move DFA ... DEATH FROM ABOVE.
Speaking of a lot of people dying fighting this dragon, Matthew Mercer said in their watchthrough of episode 1 of this season that 75,000 people died in the assault on Iman. He had figured it out based on the original population of the city in the game and what was left afterward.
Quite simply the best episode of the series so far. Loved that we got to see Vox Machina fuck shit up properly and kick some ass. What a show!
I was waiting for that grog, super saiyan pump up scene cause you knew it was coming.....rage on
Best reaction to this episode ever, as i expected. Better than all of the other reactors that I follow. The only thing we need now is J20 to do compilations of this series.
I still can't get over them actually animating Grog getting impaled on the spikes. Also Adam marking out for the entire fight was amazing, they did such a fantastic job on the episode.
Honestly, this was my absolute favorite episode. Probably because it was the part I most looked forward to, but it was fricking perfect. It was already one of my favorite moments because of the way Travis acted in the campaign, completely badass like never before, and I feel like every scene and line was adapted perfectly for this fight.
Hey! Love the shirt, I live in Rockford!
Rofl, how crazy when you said “I’m Terrence and I’m Jessica that just so happens to be my husband and my names 😂😂😂
Kevdak would've stuck around...but he had to split.
Killbox was easily the most epic combat segment in critical roles first campaign. Hours long combat ended by that beautiful finishing move pulled off by dropping grog on him.
Maybe the real strength was the friends we met along the way 🥹
...Yeah, figured he'd Hulk when he figured it out. A bit literal compared to the original version. Grog's call, the medallion trick and the final blow happened exactly like the stream. The Kaylie thing... also happened mostly the same.
