    If any of you wish for context and analysis for this fight:
    Oxob was once a stuntman, who lost his hands when the helicopter he intended to jump from crashed. In hospital some shady government dbags offered to give him advanced prosthetics if he paid. Being wealthy from his many stunting ventures he agreed, however he did not realise that they were also intending to make him into a super soldier. He did not like this and escaped. The operation had left him flat broke, so he turned to fighting in RHG tournaments and discovered that he had a true love for fighting.
    However in his fight with a gladiator named Xenrath, a large boulder was about to crush his opponent. He pushed him out of the way but his legs were severely broken as the debris fell on him, resulting in him using advanced bracers to help him walk. He continued fighting, but his extensive injuries had taken away his enthusiasm for combat. This worsened in his battle against Jade, who defeated him with relative ease. In this video we can see that his insecurities and loss as Jade’s hands have made him develop some form a pyrophobia and have made him rely more on his enhancements. From his perspective, Jade is also prideful in her natural ability (seen from the hallucinations smirk), whilst he is ashamed of having nothing but his enhancements, which compensate for his crippled body.
    On the other hand GG, an impoverished artist/fighter, is suffering from his encounter with Bog in Story #4. In this, GG was beaten within an inch of his life and could only defeat the physically impervious Bog by cutting his palms and beating him within his mind space. However Bog’s influence is still clearly seen in this video, with the scars preventing him from putting on all of his armour and poisoning his brain via a form of PTSD.
    In my opinion the resolution of these problems is what makes this fight so great. At the start Oxob is critical of GG for fussing over the cuts on his hands, pointing out his much more prominent scars, essentially telling him to stop acting like a big child. He offers him a bandage to help him cover up the wound and the past it carries. GG doesn’t want this as he cannot ignore what happened and wishes to move forward, and so he swats away the bandage accidentally burning it. Seeing GG’s toxic pride, Oxob burns his cape and they begin to fight.
    Oxob’s lightning attacks cannot hurt GG’s body as his armour grounds him, but his hands are unprotected, so Oxob focuses his attacks on his weak point. GG realises that he must put on his gauntlets to have a chance, but doing so will remind him of his confrontation with Bog. GG attempts to overload Oxob with his Ben Franklin trap, which nearly shatters his bracers and diminishes his prosthetics charge, causing the red lightning (a symbol of his reliance on his enhancements). GG decides he cannot avoid his past anymore, accepting the pain it caused him both figuratively and literally, when he puts on his gauntlets. Doing so reopens the cuts on his hands, but his refusal to back down from the pain visibly purges the remnants of Bog’s influence from his mind.
    He stands anew.
    Oxob’s attack is again grounded when GG catches it. The heat from the lightning causes the ground to catch fire, which rises behind GG. As he is tossed to the ground Oxob is brought back to his defeat at Jade’s hands and his pyrophobia sparks up seeing the flames at GG’s feet. He expects to see the same prideful smirk on GG’s face until he notices the blood pouring from the wounds on his hands.
    Seeing GG fight despite the massive amount of pain he is in, inspires him. He stands up, and with each step, the bracers slowly fall apart, showing how he is relying on his own strength for the first time in a long while. The red lightning diminishes and with great agony he charges himself up, ready to fight once more. As he rediscovers his passion for fighting without worrying about his pride.
    He too stands anew.
    They fight without hesitation, as they have both overcome their demons.

  • @jacksonthornton879
    @jacksonthornton879 4 года назад +1444

    Here’s my speculation of what Oxob represents and Gildedguy represents:
    At 1:39 we see Gildedguy studying his wounds. Notice how his wounds are open.
    Also notice how at 1:40 Oxob notices this and at 1:43 Oxob offers Gildedguy bandages. Oxob uses a method of repression to heal. He uses bandages to hide the wounds and in this case he offers the same treatment literally to Gildedguy
    Gildedguy of course isn’t used to this, and turns his back to Oxob and this causes Oxob to show his huger scars.
    Now it becomes a thing of pride. Oxob believes he’s in a higher authority to know how to heal because he has scars WAY bigger than Gildedguy. (As shown at 2:05)
    Now Gildedguy is upset, throwing the bandage away out of anger because he believes that Oxob doesn’t know any better than he does. Thus HIS pride is presented.
    Now here’s what I love. At 2:17 when Oxob’s bandages are burned- it’s sort of a symbol for Oxobs method of healing. He represses whatever he hurts and bottles it up. So of course once the bandages are burnt, oxob is hurt, and what do we see? A glimpse of his past, the actual symbolic meaning behind the bandages: _what he’s trying to cover up_
    Now of course, Oxob aims for Gildedguy’s cape at 2:20. Now this is a bit speculative, but I believe the cape is representing the Green eyed cowboy. The green eyed cowboy is a representation of all of Gildedguy’s desires, and even his faults. Greed, lust, and *pride*
    Gilded guy’s cape, the one this that is consistent between the gilded guy knight and Green eyed cowboy designs, is burnt. This is Oxob sort of saying “You are not as above this as you think!”
    ...And then the fight begins. It’s a fight of gildedguy trying to overcome his physical wounds, while Oxob tries to overcome his mental wounds.
    The two are a foil of each other. Gildedguy, while struggling to heal physically, can deal well with emotions, and Oxob is the opposite.
    In the fight, they both overcome their appropriate wounds. Oxob pushes Gildedguy to wear his Gauntlets after the immense physical pain, and while Oxob is fought back, the thoughts of his past he tried repressing once again rise to the surface.
    The two effectively help heal each other from this fight by addressing their personal needs.
    Now this was highly speculative, and this comment will probably be lost but tell me what you think!

    The thing we love about Gildedguy, is that the stories can all be interpreted as something connected to animating.
    Story 1: First real story, testing the waters and making your first animation. Short, sweet, but lots of dedication nonetheless.
    Story 2: A change and the development of your own real style. In this case, the beginning of a theme of music synced animations with breathtaking colors.
    Story 3: Where real challenges begin to arise, in realizing even with immense dedication and time, you need money to keep doing what you love. However, you have to realize that you can’t sell out, or blatantly ask. You’ll make it through, just keep making amazing stuff and the rest will follow.
    Story 4: The real fear, when the stuff you make isn’t being viewed enough. That lingering fear of nobody watching what you create, which is practically a life line for an animator. The fear(bog) could never be beaten, only pushed down and conquered by the animators own resolve.
    Story 5: With the creations you make, there are always other animators. Those who make more, get more views, fans, sponsorships. In this the green eyed cowboy was simply that, green with envy. The jealously of wanting what others have. It’s just the desire of reaching that goal or stardom(in the animation world).
    Story 6: A story of conquering past fears. Even when one seemingly beats both fear and jealousy, it’s never truly gone. Such things leave scars. Through this, the fight wasn’t just a fight to win, it was one to heal. Creating a beautiful animation that brings you back to the reason you picked up the pen or pencil in the first place, to feel happy and revel in the brilliance of your work to which you can share with others.
    Thx gildedguy for everything you’ve done.

  • @PARKlNG
    @PARKlNG 4 года назад +2504

    Gildedguy vs. Oxob is quite clearly to me a story of trauma - specifically, a story of *relinquishing yourself* from the weight of trauma and pushing past previous traumatic experience as a step towards healing. It's message and thematics can be described with one word, "Pain", but experiencing that pain isn't *just* for the sake of negativity and playing with the character's anger and grief towards it, pain is also used as a tool for healing in this story.
    Pain is necessary in any traumatic experience. You have to feel that pain, and know it, before you can know how to heal.
    GG and Oxob have both individually experienced their own trauma, you don't even need to know Oxob's previous stories to get a grasp for how he feels inhibited by his own trauma and pain with repeatedly getting the short end of the stick. Knowing his stories only gives it more depth, with him retaining a long-term physical disability, losing family and being taken advantage of per result of recklessness. Gilded on the opposing end bears the frustrations of being unable to heal from his experiences with Bog in a very literal sense, because Bog is *still stuck with him,* mentally and physically, and the fact that remnants of that battle for survival are still quite literally within him has left him in a position where his scars from that fight are still unable to properly heal, thus leaving him unable to dawn his armor, even when in a position where he needs to rely on it. A very good means of storytelling, by taking the way trauma sticks with people and bringing it to a /physical/ level as well, not just mental.
    I think it's very telling, how Gilded turns away from Oxob's offer of help in the beginning of the story, that both of their own traumas and approaching them from a healthy angle wasn't going to be possible through just a conversation. They both have negative associations with duels, or just fighting in general, because of the way it's impacted them physically /and/ mentally, and that's not something that they can recover from without having to face it head on. Dueling between themselves, even if that's not something they precisely realize in the moment, is by all means a therapeutic process. Their fight is driven by anger, a communication gap, but it eventually wraps back around into being a positive experience for the both of them, even if it's not very happy in the moment.
    The both of them get their own time to push past things that both physically and mentally inhibit them in this story - Gilded finally pushing past the pain of his scars and dawning his gauntlets, and Oxob similarly losing his leg braces. The rest of their fight then on takes a very.... dramatic angle. Downright anime-esc, a bit cheesy for some, but I personally think it's the perfect visual demonstration of how the two of them have been able to release themselves of their personal inhibitions and just fight for the sake of it, because it's fun, dramatic, fast paced. I think this stands true for Oxob especially, given how that's always been what dueling has meant to him, being a medium where he can put his otherwise destructive electrokinetic abilities (nanomachines, son!) to a good use, something that's engaging for him, and with Gilded being able to wear his full set of armor (of which is very evidently conductive, and Gilded's only means of keeping himself from being fried), the two are effectively in a position where neither really necessarily risks inhibiting the /other/, either, which definitely lends into why the fight gets so crazy in the back half - it's unconventional, but this is effectively their healing process, replacing negative association with something positive, something liberating.
    I think the thing that definitely sells that theme of "release from trauma" for certain is the ending - I don't know what's going on with The Cowboy, at this rate, but I do think this video has in some respects de-confirmed his association with Bog as an individual - at least after the fact, given that he seems unaffected by Bog's absence by all means, even seeming a bit perturbed by his short lived presence when attempting to re-enter Gilded's scars, only turning back to his own focus, his own goals, when he's assured that Gilded can effectively handle himself (which was an incredibly powerful moment, by the way. Glorious visual storytelling of how he's finally been able to heal. His scars look so much healthier from the beginning of the animation, too).
    This is a bit tangent-y of a comment overall, so I'm sorry if my thematic ramblings come off as a bit disjointed, but this animation overall has already come to hold a very special place in my heart, as a person who has personally struggled with PTSD, and especially the anger that comes with it. This animation demonstrates all of it's themes beautifully, and it's overall message is very personally meaningful to me, so take this message as an overall thank you for continuing to tell such incredible stories through your animation. I anticipate what you'll come to create in the future with bated breath.
    EDIT: thanks for all the kind comments! makes me feel extra validated in overanalyzing this silly video of two stick figures punching each other, lol

      Thats a really good analysis, i enjoyed reading this alot, it wrapped up all the ideas about the themes i had and didnt have into one conclusion and it really gives me more insight into the animation. I also think the ending was really powerful, how he's physically healed now he's mentally past it, how bog can't enter anymore because he's healed and how he both mentally and physically, killing bog, closes that traumatic chapter of his life.

    I like how dynamic this was, and how they don’t do those pace-breaking anime cliches.
    Like if this was an actual anime-style battle, for the scene at 3:09.
    Instead of immediately attacking again, Oxob would have jumped back and then it would cut to a still image of Oxob with a surprised face internal monologuing, saying something like this to himself for 30 sec.
    “What? That was my Denka Lightning Punch technique! It should have shocked him into submission! How could it not do anything?”
    Guildedguy would have then looked at him crossing his arms or something, making a manly expression, and say something like “You are probably wondering why your attack did nothing to me? Well.”
    It would then cut to Guildedguy rushing towards him with a speed lines background and say something like “Your Denka Lightning Punch is useless, because my armor is made with the rare Ahokutu Ore which absorbs electricity! You are powerless against me! And now witness as I use the ancient Katakata Sword Technique on you!”
    It would then cut to Oxob again with a surprised face and he’d internal monologue like “The ancient Katakata Sword Technique? I never knew it was real! If he knows that technique, I won’t be able to dodge this!”
    It would then show a few seconds of Oxob being repeatedly slashed by Guidedguy and then it would cut to Guidedguy with a manly expression bragging about his armor and power level and all that jazz that generic anime characters brag about.
    Then Oxob would be like “You may think you have won, but I noticed your weakness. Your armor covers everything but your hands! Your hands should be wide-open for my attack!”
    It would then show a close-up of Guidedguy with a surprised face and he’s internal monologue like “What? How did he know?”
    Then Oxob would be like “Yes! And now that I know your weakness. You are as good as defeated! TAAKKKEEE THIIISSS!!! HUUUAAAAGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!” Then cut to him doing repeated Kung-fu punches and kicks. Then more moments of pace-breaking monologues and bragging about their abilities.
    But no. It didn’t do any of that stuff that generic anime always does. That’s why this is good!

But theirs visual representation that he’s overcome the trauma he’s been through. As the lighting that was surging through his armor burns the acid away which you can see coming out of his helmet, it shows how much this fight helped him. When oxob see this, he can’t help but breakdown knowing that somehow this fight has helped him and realizes that maybe the same could happen for him. How his leg braces breakdown and removed the visual shackles holding him back to the camera panning up to see him crying. And it ties back to the reason this fight happened in the first place. All he wanted to do, was help him.
    Btw, 6:49 was the face of a smile. Both of them fighting in their prime states at that point, nothing holding them back, and all the worry behind them is gone. It’s only Oxob and Gildedguy.

    I love the attention to detail in this fight. Gilded's armour was redirecting oxob's electricity to the ground, so oxob focused on attacking his injured arms.
    Gilded suffered pain when wearing his gloves because of bog, but overcame that tragedy and wore his gloves again to fight oxob.

      At 3:23 after bog showed up in his sword, gilded did the same spinning attack (but looks a bit more fluid? As if bog has some influence in it) bog showed up again as gilded swing and the overall colour pallete change to purpleish, later on when gilded stop and start using more direct attack the colour pallete change back to normal.
      Either it points out how bog influence gildedguy, or a callback, like when gildedguy uses the same attack against jade on his fight against bog.

    Neat detail: Gold is one of the most efficient electrical conductors in the entire elemental table. In other words, Gold (GildedGuy) attracts Lightning (Oxob). Says a bit about the creator too, as Gold is also one of the most fragile precious metals, and given how clear and open Michael is with displays of emotion in his animations, I think it is an all-too appropriate comparison.

    Every time I watch Gildedguy's latest animation it's almost like a personal milestone. Every time a new work comes out I'm a little older, a little wiser than I was before. Each first viewing is a perfect snapshot of who I was at that point in time, and I often am reminded of certain traits I had when I go back to view his previous animations.
    I've been an ecstatic sugar-fueled Middle school student, an aspiring musician who couldn't keep a beat, a presidential buff, an actor, an author, a weightlifter, and everything in between. Now I'm here, as an adult reading up about Wagner. Yet despite all these changes, I keep coming back to see what Gildedguy has made next. And every time I get to that point, I've always learned something important that I didn't know before.
    And you know what? I think everyone else here* is the same way.

    I love how gildedguy gets himself in trouble in each story due to his own stubbornness. And how nobody is ever the same person after encountering him. And he has this personality that can change the way you perceive everything in just within a couple of moments. Even if he has to go super saiyan to prove a point.
    And I Also love how much weight each fight has. its not about just two dudes punching each other. Its about two people trying to conquer their past. (Thats how I saw it) Each fight has an underlining message that you can only get after watching it a couple of times. Its kind of poetic.

      honestly not all of them have been super meaningful(still an incredible work either way, but not all of them hold emotional weight):
      story #1 is literally an argument about bacon doneness turned into a fight. important, certainly, but not really emotionally weighted.
      story #2 is about Gildedguy eating too many snacks at a party and then fighting the person who set up said party because of it.
      story #3 isn't a fight at all, and is just Gildedguy trying to make money for armor repairs at a music joint.
      story #4 has emotional effects, what with the possession and mental habitation, but the reason it started is that Bog is an asshole.
      story #5 and #6 I agree with you though, there's a lot of gravitas and emotion behind them both, and it's awesome.
