@@Mossaab-kg3cj5hc5sI’ve heard of couple theories surrounding this part specifically, the most common one being that the double king originates from some species the same way theres rat, caterpillars, fly, colonies, etc. And that the double kings original group of species is neglected and has never had a king the way the other colonies have, thought it was intresting
@@brandonxsu i always thought it maybe a meta for the paranoia and fear that tyrants have towards their own people, I don't know this part always creeped me out I watched this vid years ago and I forgot about it until it showed up again in my recommended.
Gabe Itch Ironic how he actually fumbled through some of those doorways when he has the crown on. Like when the rat assassins comes and he checks Them out from above.
Just to let you know, the rats were the rat king’s followers/people so when they bowed down to the double king, they were showing that he was now their king
They're all like "Oh ffs, does it even matter if he learns a lesson at this point? Just give him the thing so he shuts up and we can enjoy our eternal dinner party in peace."
This feels like some form of animated ancient mythology, especially with how the Double King slays the snake, ascends to the clouds, encounters what I initially believed to be a giant living castle, etc. and I love every bit of it. I really wish there was some game/rpg based on this animation that had you go through and try to either stop or play as the Double King.
The level of detail in this fever dream of a video is astounding. His doorway being only big enough for him and his crown, not the added crown hitting on the way out. The curling up like a cat into the other crown and Im just to lazy to type the rest. I have to show this to people every now and then, just to add them to the insanity
I think not enough people mention how the subjects of each king Double dethrones end up lining up in front of his castle, despite the fact that he doesn't address or even remotely care about them. Definitely has a message...
I just realized that the reason he follows the butterfly-thing is because he probably can't imagine anyone willingingly giving up the crown and choosing to just do something else, so he just assumed it would still have the crown on it. Man this animation is really good even after all these years.
I love that the pumpkin is the only one whose form on the king's hall is uninjured. The rat, snake, and fly all still have their injuries and the fish is constantly gasping
In the dead king's hall (roughly at 7:45), the pumpkin king isn't smashed, but the other kings aren't regenerated. The rat king's skull hasn't been replaced and his eyes are still loose, the snake king's still got the sword holes in his head, and like tophat said, the fish king is having trouble breathing. and the fly is still decapitated.
@thesusbus the pumpkin was smashed, but he's back in one piece. No one else gets that luxury, they all have to deal with the injuries the double king inflicted on them.
@thesusbus the only king in the underworld that hasnt kept their injuries. The pumpkin king died cause he got smahed but in the underworld hes fine but like the fly queen had their head cut off but in the underworld they still have their head cut off
I just realized, at 6:06, double king not only didn't kill the toadstool like he did all the other kings, but scratches his head because he **doesn't recognize it as a crown because of how stylistically different it is from all the others**
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
I love the little details, like Double King bonking his head on the arch because it's taller than before due to the extra crown, and the little mouse starting to go for the cheese and being silently pulled back by the bigger one.
I love the fact that he spent a lifetime stealing crowns, eventually got over the fact that maybe he can't have every single crown he sees, only to lose his shit when his little paper crown got taken away.
Most of them are queen tho it said all their name in the credit and the title of most of the snake are queen the pumpkin is a lady the skelaton is a queen
I noticed how everyone at the feast of the dead did not have a crown, except for death. And then Death gave the crown away so he could keep having a party. I bet the crown for him didn't really matter to hi. as much as it did for the double king
Easily one of my favorite videos simply because of how funny the Double King is with every action like making a little napkin crown when the skull king won't let him have his or looking over his new little crown ring a bit
The names of the Kings/Queens are “The (Double) King” Ratking Agustus the agreeable, Queen Daisy VII, Stratomonarchus, Lady Gertrude of Squash, Lord of the Flies, Harg the Serpent Queen, King Ronald the moist, King Aldo and Queen Aldine of the Glade, Olov the Mountain King, Durt the Elder, a cockatoo (not royal,) and Agatha, Matriarch of Death.
Austin Dial They are meant to represent what he would be like without his crown, just another cave dweller like the rest of us, also they serve to add to his paranoia by there always being something watching him waiting to take his crown. He threw himself into the void cause he didn’t care about the afterlife or making amends with the other kings he wronged he only cared about the crown and he had it so why stay in a place where someone might take it. It will be just him and his crown now.
He doesn't even want power. He doesn't care about ruling things, or enjoying a life of luxury, or controlling the laws and people of a nation - he just wants to _be the king._
I like how our main character doesn’t even act like a king in any way. He just locks himself in a tower away from everyone and anything. The only thing he does really is steal crowns as if he associates being a king with being happy and as it doesn’t really work out that way; he delves further into insanity and desperation.
My favorite part is how it shows the King’s descent into utter fixation and madness, to the point where he threatens his own mobile fortress which he just used to get to the mountain crown. Or, for that matter, seeing a mountain formation as a crown that was even possible for him to obtain for himself. To the point where he sees everything, even himself, as separate from himself and possessing that which he desires. Brilliant work, absolutely brilliant.
I love how with the crown at 6:04 he throws it away to then pay attention to the cockatoo whose feathers look more like what he is used to. He didn't realize how something unfamiliar could be valuable.
@@nick10519 I think this crown could also be a king's though (look at the previous owners of the St Edward's crown for example) It's probably just because he was unfamiliar with it and/or because he didn't know how to stack it on his head
@@malakhussein3506 Ur right, maybe she didnt want them that much as him, but maybe if she wouldnt take his napkin crown, snake wouldnt get the fork stabbed again xd
I love that in the beginning Double King has arms and sleeves and stuff, and it eventually just becomes. Floating hands. I also love how you can see little changes in Felix’s style as the video goes on, since this was made over two years. Like, if you started playing the end and then moved back to the beginning, you could see the difference
I can't believe I've never noticed that! Despite watching it hundreds of times. I guess it shows that it was worth it because I definitely didn't miss the individual limbs.
I loved the part where the death king decides to give his crown to the double king, this shows that even death is not interested in matters of material goods and other futile things and that all he wanted was A civilized dinner with the other kings.
The thing Death cared most about was teaching the Double King that the crowns didn’t matter. He knew that, but he also knew Double King didn’t. He hoped he could show him what life was like without obsessing over crowns. But when the Double King rejected existing that way and lashed out, Death declared the effort pointless and could care less what happens to Double King from there on out, as he was deemed beyond saving.
@@Timetraveler2411 i like to think of it as the double king found someone greedier and more powerful than him but the king of death found someone far more obnoxious and just gave him the crown to silence his tantrum
I still love how the people he rules keep showing up at his castle, but his own people seemingly don't even follow him anymore. In a world where crowns clearly hold a lot of power, they would rather not follow their king and instead live in a cave, because the Double King just sucks that much
I always thought they were sort of like emissaries for each respective kingdom, and the rats bowing was just a formality. But that makes a lot more sense.
Interesting detail I didn't notice before: The food at the table somewhat resembles the other kings, and there is a double stuffed pig at the Double Kings place.
@@Mono_Autophobic I mean, there probably is something to be said about it, it isn't totally devoid of meaning and does have a little symbolism but it also isn't all that serious either.
i remember being so disturbed and disgusted over this 6 years ago that i forgot how impressive this actually was, the fact that this was made by one guy and that im watching this for free rn is crazy
The fact that this dude was so focused and determined on achieving more of the crowns that he literally chopped his own finger off thinking that it was a king itself, is just absolutely insane.
its telling how the king disregards all his new acolytes, even his own fortress… he was so obsessed with the superficial allure of greater power, he never appreciated the power he already had
I love how even after 5 years people still come and revisit this animation and new people still come and watch it. It's a great animation and I'm glad a lot of people are still finding out about this dude.
Love how that sort of automated castle that bring him on the mountain just puts his hands out to avoid being shooted, and on solemn notes it just retires backward 😂

I also love how you can see little changes in Felix’s style as the video goes on, since this was made over two years. Like, if you started playing the end and then moved back to the beginning, you could see the difference
I can't believe I've never noticed that! Despite watching it hundreds of times.
I guess it shows that it was worth it because I definitely didn't miss the individual limbs.
Felix was too lazy to keep his body the same
Can I get any examples of how the style changed?
@@DJSlimeball Double king's design with a shirt and arms at 0:07 compared to his much more simplified at 6:07
Even his crown changes
Love how you can see beings similar to "the double king" just hiding in a cave
king: **exist**
double king: *_your free trial at life has ended_*
king:no you can't just murder people for having another crown
double king: ha ha skull go woosh
lol
This animation was kinda iconic.
Cadence John Ohhh- I realize now, that “alternative” is what alr stands for.💀💀
Not only kings but Queens too
I love how king king just casually walks into the rat king’s castle completely unhindered and just fucking glory kills rat king.
I laughed so hard at king king, cause I thought I read it wrong and realized the title is double king 👑

Well Ratking Augustus isn't called the Agreeable for nothing
A flork in the wild
I loved the part where the death king decides to give his crown to the double king, this shows that even death is not interested in matters of material goods and other futile things and that all he wanted was A civilized dinner with the other kings.
The only confusing thing is that when the double king makes a napkin crown death takes it.. meaning that he had some interest in it
The thing Death cared most about was teaching the Double King that the crowns didn’t matter. He knew that, but he also knew Double King didn’t. He hoped he could show him what life was like without obsessing over crowns. But when the Double King rejected existing that way and lashed out, Death declared the effort pointless and could care less what happens to Double King from there on out, as he was deemed beyond saving.
@@Timetraveler2411 i like to think of it as the double king found someone greedier and more powerful than him but the king of death found someone far more obnoxious and just gave him the crown to silence his tantrum
Queen Agatha.
.
Double king taking everyone’s crown is a subtle nod to the fact that he likes taking crowns
I still love how the people he rules keep showing up at his castle, but his own people seemingly don't even follow him anymore. In a world where crowns clearly hold a lot of power, they would rather not follow their king and instead live in a cave, because the Double King just sucks that much
The part that I keep coming back to in my mind is the people who look like the king always just out of sight.
Maybe they just afraid of him so much, that don’t want to be near any
I always thought they were sort of like emissaries for each respective kingdom, and the rats bowing was just a formality. But that makes a lot more sense.
@@Dolfa_LPHSame. I think I realized they were answering to Double King now on this rewatch
1000th like, you're welcome
Interesting detail I didn't notice before:
The food at the table somewhat resembles the other kings, and there is a double stuffed pig at the Double Kings place.
It does?
Can u explain what is the point of the video
@@Mono_Autophobic It's just an animation?
@@daewdle oh , I thought it has some inner meaning or something , lol I got a little philosophical 😂
@@Mono_Autophobic I mean, there probably is something to be said about it, it isn't totally devoid of meaning and does have a little symbolism but it also isn't all that serious either.
lmao am i the only one who thinks that the fact that double king tried to make himself a napkin crown was cute?
I liked that
Yeah , That was Cute
No. You're not
nah man, it was adorble-
@riel mason skeleton man was being a jerk, i would be mad too.
i like how this accurately describes mans hunger for power and control.
i remember being so disturbed and disgusted over this 6 years ago that i forgot how impressive this actually was, the fact that this was made by one guy and that im watching this for free rn is crazy
How dit this disturb and disgust you.
This video is one of many traumatic experiences I had as a kid, so I don’t blame anyone for thinking it’s disturbing and disgusting
@@imadog4422 I'm just curious, what did you find traumatic about this? It definitely feels fevery dreamish

love the residents profile pic
Fuck yeah dude
The fact that this dude was so focused and determined on achieving more of the crowns that he literally chopped his own finger off thinking that it was a king itself, is just absolutely insane.
but during that he used two hands to chop off his finger
@@Thejinjakal wait what
@@Thejinjakal he used one of his feet plus the other hand
@@Leo-cu9ur No, he definitely used two hands to chop off his finger.

That’s enough internet for today.
@@sabrinapham6040 hello this is your daily dose of internet
*blasting
its telling how the king disregards all his new acolytes, even his own fortress… he was so obsessed with the superficial allure of greater power, he never appreciated the power he already had
He wanted MORE crowns
Big brain energy 😮
He became more obsessed with the SYMBOLS of power than the power itself.
There the crown IS the power, cuz when goat dropped his crown clowd where it fell became holy and his rain made pumpkin and fly king too
Nuh uh!
He just wanted crowns
He probably thought they looked cool
I love how right after he cuts off his finger he’s just like;
“...hm, anyways”

If you were to put this into a written story, it’d sound like an ancient myth
Probably more like a fable, considering the amount of animals and how obvious the moral of the story is.
It would sound like an acid trip... because it probably was one
Nick Kayfabe Yeah, or that, too
+Nick Kayfabe uh, what's the moral again? All I can take away is "just give him the crown"
Lol it would fit right in
I like that he doesn't even want the kingdoms he just really likes crowns, and who can blame him (more then the countless other monarch's he killed)
The sound design in this is absolutely incredible
