Animation vs. Minecraft Season 3 - In Real Time (official) 

DJ and I watched and talked about the whole thing here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Oz5mDcDK9I4.html

We've already seen many fans attempt to piece it together in real time, but only he could show us just what was missing

Guys remember, if Pixar hired this man, we wouldn't be watching this masterpiece today

1:10:35 One thing I love with this specific sequence between King and the stickmen is that each stickman coming up to fight has a theme behind it. 1:10:39 Red was the first to be corrupted by the Minecraft Block (via herobrine) and the one who suggested they follow Purple, so it makes sense that he now feels responsible for all of what’s happening. He also attacks for his classmates and headmaster/possessor who were just erased. 1:10:46 Green entering almost instantly to save Red is ironic considering he was imprisoned 3 times this season and had to wait a considerable amount of time before the others saved him. He also holds a personal grudge against the King as he’s encountered him the most and is carrying Purple’s need for vengeance as well. 1:10:56 This fight serves as a mirror again between the King and Orange, as through the season, the two always have a “dark and light” theme between them. Orange for a short moment, represents what’s left of King’s good conscience, holding him back from attacking Blue in that second, so when King erases Orange, he’s erasing the only positive parts of himself. 1:10:57 Blue takes up a surprisingly short amount of time considering he kicked off this season, but once again, he takes his role as the support of the cast and an opposite to King, (by colour only) 1:11:07 Purple, now reconciled with his past, brings King his own past in this fight. Instead of a straightforward assault, Purple throws Yellow, the same colour as King’s son, towards King. However, King naturally dismisses Purple as he has for the past season and focuses instantly on Yellow. 1:11:08 King struggles or hesitates for a second when attacking Yellow, but then treats his erasure with a lot more brutality than the others, probably because he sees it as erasing his past.

55:24 Red: Failing at school TSC: RUN FOR YOUR LIFE. Blue and Yellow: Preparing a revolution Green: 🗣️🗣️🎵🎶

An entire 1.5 hour worth of MORE content? You've outdone yourself Becker. Edit: ik your pretty sick of hearing people say "thanks for all the likes!" But holy sh!t I did not expect that this would become this liked

One thing I don’t see anyone talk about are the “extra” content we get from this, just shows how much Alan cares about us by making the storyline coherent ( for context I thought he was just going to line up the episodes in real time, not add more things)

Can we just appreciate how the slow motion at 1:02:15 lined up for all 3 stories? Didnt even notice at first, this man put so much effort in the smallest details, and it shows!

56:12 Gotta love how Greens just enjoying himself with the village while the others are A. Stuck around almost every hostile mob in the game as well as Minecraft's evil incarnate, B. Chased down by possibly the most horrifying atrocity in recent updates or C. Planning a revolution against literal wizards and axe-wielding maniacs with people who’ve probably never held a weapon until then.

The fact that he creates such creative and high quality videos in such a short amount of time is absurd, props to you Alan

It makes me uncontrollably happy being able to see little extra bits of what happened in between certain parts of this season- I can't thank this team enough for taking the time to animate and add those clips!! :D

Things I noticed that other people might have missed: At 21:30 one of the potion effects is "Techno Power", which could be a Technoblade tribute, theres also a "Gotta Go Fast" one too. Orange does some ice skating 49:27 King Orange doesn't give a damn, literally pushes them away with little movement 1:09:04 At 1:11:07 King Orange looks at purple for just a moment after launching purple, probably foreshadowing his realisation. King Orange has already won, but he realises that his revenge for his son which means destroying Minecraft has gone too far as to doing the same to go through with his intentions. King Orange is killing purple with Minecraft like how Minecraft killed his son. 1:12:40 At 1:14:40 The drawing of King Orange hitting the Minecraft block with Gold could mean him destroying Minecraft because of Golds death(mentally) while it switches to purple which could mean him destroying Minecraft using Purple(physically). At 1:17:27 when Purple passes the crown onto Reuben could mean another tribute to Technoblade. Herobrine clunks 1:15:54 About Purple and King Orange is that they never knew each others backstory, Purple didn't know King Orange had his son taken while King Orange didn't know Purple lived with abusive dad. In 1:02:11 when Purples dad switches to King Orange could mean that 1. Purple wants their dad to be proud of them. 2. Purple thinks of King Orange somewhat as their dad. The stickmen lined up in a rainbow in 21:58 The season starts with chirp playing, and it ends with chirp playing. Truly, just truly a beautiful series.

Incase you were wondering when blue gets the paper in the chef video, he gets it at 55:12

it surprises me how they still managed to make most of the music work well, and how they found a way to fill every little gap where there used to be nothing. the attention to detail required to make this whole thing is amazing, and they absolutely nailed it!

The re-done parkour chapter to make it more consistent (as well as fix Reuben's weird ability to just teleport in one cut) and utilize more of the widescreen was just superb. The extra warden memories along with the extra village scenes was the icing on the cake.

49:32 is making me wanna cry look at purples reaction to being betrayed by king orange its so sad (also I'm a huge fan of the entire parkour in real time section, specifically Orange, because his is literally just Loony tunes the entire time while pissing off the pigling brute, and blue trying to get out of the first section because its cool to see his character displayed with him only trying fighting as a last resort)

Just imagine what the reaction would of been if Alan sat down at his desk at 1:15:28

Who else finds that thumbnail absolutely FIRE!? 🔥🔥

The level of attention to detail and maintaining consistency just by adding new scenes to make the experience more enjoyable for us is astounding. Alan really does everything for his fans, it’s heartwarming and amazing. ❤

56:04 Every clip matches with greens world's (rehh?) TSC: turns his head Red: herobrine gets closed up Blue: villager moves head Yellow: Villager jumps down

1:07:29 I feel like this is where Herobrine realized that he was screwed. It looked like the King didn't even know he could do that either, but this was definitely a turning point.

Alan has truly come a long way since he started this series many years ago. It’s great we get to have a tribute of this season showing how much the Minecraft events have fully gotten even more cooler.

Better story telling than 90% of what Disney offers these days. All because blue wanted some netherwart.

0:32 Blue thinking * eats nether wart * 0:47 Waiting for ingredients* eats nether wart * Blue really likes his nether warts.

21:30 techno power? That explains why Ruben was so powerful. Technoblade never dies.

Alan (and the team) not only made a compilation of all the episodes, but also added additional scenes. Masterpiece.

It’s so beautiful how something as simple as a drawn stick figure gone rogue can create a spark that eventually grows into something as incredible and amazing as this. The worldbuilding, the storytelling, the character arcs and backstories! And the fact that you had to tell the whole story without so much as a single word being uttered from any stick figures! It takes skill. Chef’s kiss, Alan.

Holy crap dude. Its not often, in fact its pretty rare for a story to make me cry, but god did you do it Alan. Everyone involved in this did an excellent job and made a damn masterpiece. The storytelling was phenomenal and very well developed. Even without words I could still tell what was being said through lovely animation that really helped bring out the emotional impact of the entire thing. Props to Alan and the team, this was better than any movie I've ever come across. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

There's a parallel universe in the middle involving a school and a musical, which I rewound and watched 5 times to looking at each story. It's brilliant. By the end, I genuinely feel happy for them. After watching it, only one words come to my mind: Masterpiece.

Alan Becker is the true definition of "show, don't tell". An amazing story, told without any spoken language. Weird to think that this whole season started because of blue's netherwart addiction.

47:45 Music and scenes times perfectly

4:46 The 2 iron golems on the left "HAPPY FEET WOMBO COMBO" "THAT AIN'T FALC- "OH OHHH OH OH OHHHHHH"

the storytelling in this entire series so so astounding, massive props to alan and the team!

To see how the entire season 3 of AVM was mapped out and all the events played simultaneously is amazing. Alan and his team never ceases to amaze us. I swear that he needs to win an Oscar for some of his animations.

After two months I finally finished watching it, that was amazing. 😭 This is a masterpiece, not just the standalone episodes but this real time version is just incredible. Everything worked so well together it's amazing. It's the greatest technical achievement of all time for indie animation, and I'm so glad it was done with Stick Figures. The only part I thought didn't work that well was during Note Block Universe, those parts are really better on their own, but they still had some amazing moments put together like that. There were also some spots that could have also had more "real time" moments, but it's still a masterpiece. You and your team are amazing Alan. =)

Love it! I know people believe the ending means king was doing what he was going against (with purple) but how I feel about this is that they were father and son or at least purple saw the king as one. I think this points to how everyone sees their parents (as a grim figure who doesn't care) VS how they actually are and what their intentions are (protecting at all costs willing to destroy worlds for them) and vice versa how parents see their children being all happy (yellow) while they face sadness and depression (making them darker being purple). To be honest the fact that people (like me) can connect on so many levels and getting so deep with it shows how strong the script is. Keep up the good work Alan!

And no one’s talking about the fact that these are all timed to fit well together in a coherent story, this is insane!

Alan had the most impressive storytelling over the years. This one surely made me cry so much

never imagined myself crying over a stick man animation at 4:44am but here we are! really the story the animation the movement the ideas truly this is a masterpiece i underestimated the movie at first but now i regret it. the crown is to you alan cause you truly nailed it 👑

knowing how much new content had to be animated to fit some of the time gaps, i am thoroughly impressed. compared to big animation studios like dreamworks and pixar, the alan becker team is absolutely crazy.

I don't know if anyone's talked about this, but I think that the way the music lines up and switches between each theme deserves a ton of credit! How much the different melodies bring to the table can't be understated.

i would just like to point out this entire season takes place on my birthday in 2021

I like how while the others are doing some hardwork or trying to escape, green here is singing peacefully

Watching one episode of Alan Beker can be a moving experience, whatching them all at once like this is a straight up emotional ride.

The fact that you animated extra bits so the timing lines is already impressive enough with the amount of work you do

I really like how the note block universe music works with the other episodes 1:00:42

I Like this... But This... This... IS CINEMA!

I watched the entire thing. the lore and order is insane. the storytelling is a whole another level. crazy of how it started from the addiction of nether wart.

I don’t know if anyone will see this, but Alan I believe this is truly your greatest work to date. You’ve grown into one of the most talented animators I’ve ever had to pleasure of seeing. Thank you for the phenomenal content. Edit: Sorry, I also want to thank the team for the amazing work as well! Also thank you guys for the likes!

20:02 Live Pig reaction

I’m really impressed by how chronologically consistent each character’s place is in the story.

I’m glad I’m not the only one astounded by how you managed to line up each scene with each other and keep the continuity going properly That must’ve been hard! Kudos Alan!

It brings a tear to the eye. You've created a masterpiece, Alan. A story, portrayed without any words, that's touched the hearts and minds of millions. I look forward to whatever comes next in this world you've created.

1:12:02 The entire sequence after this is very much a Castlevania "I'm killing our boy" moment.

On 12:15, Blue stomps on the ground as an attempt to get out of the white screen, falls endlessly in the process, and then start swimming, so it probably means that at one point, the witch went into the water.

Man, just . . . this. This series is one of the greatest I've ever come across, both in terms of animation and story. The concept is so simple but in draws you in so completely. You forget that you're watching multi-colored stick figures in Minecraft. The characters speak volumes even though they can't talk. You connect with their personalities and their struggles, wants, and desires. The animation is so smooth and the fights are a real highlight. There's so much going on and I'm always finding new stuff when I rewatch an episode. Each character has their own style of how they fight and what they fight with. They work well together, seamlessly bouncing off their friends like well rehearsed choreography. Each character has their own 'thing' that contributes to how they act and what they do on a regular basis. Everyone has their favorites, but I think the story of Purple and King Orange is a real highlight for all of us. Both had their families ripped apart and both tried to find a way to fix that. They ended up finding each other without really realizing. King Orange became the father Purple longed for and Purple became King Orange's son, fixing the gaping hole in his heart and mending some of his hurt. I think we can all agree that it's a very happy ending. Before I go, I want to talk about how beautiful the ending of this season is. It does a few things to call back to the original Animation vs. Minecraft (like Herobrine possessing Red again) but the most prominent thing is the final charge to stop the apocalypse. It doesn't take much to realize it's very reminiscent of when Orange and his friends fought to dunk the sourceblock in the trash bin and keep it away from Herobrine. Seeing everyone work together like they did then (with the inclusion of Red this time) is absolutely beautiful. Words can't quite describe it. It feels very conclusive and I thought it would be the end. I was very happy when another episode came out after this and confirmed that things would continue. So I guess, in conclusion, thank you so much to Alan Becker and his team for doing all of this for us. It's downright incredible. It's amazing! Keep doing what you're doing. We'll be with you every step of the way.

Alan Becker and his team has made a masterpiece Pixar should reconsider not hiring Alan now, Great job though!

45:39 purple rethinking his choices in life

As someone who didn't watch each episode individually its really fun to see how all the events link up together, and all the surprises that comes with watching multiple timelines at once. I sometimes have to rewind the video to focus on another person's perspective to get what suddenly happened in the perspective of the one I originally focused on. For example, I was watching Orange coming back to fight The King with the Warden when suddenly Blue and Yellow emerges with a giant Ravager! I was so shocked so i had to rewind it and it was nice to see the lead up to those events

55:12 Wow, Blue finding that recipe just goes to show how much attention to detail goes into these. Incredible

It's impressive how much content you can make with vanilla Minecraft, just imagine if they all go into the Modded world of Minecraft, it would be quite an experience.

I love how that guy manage to transcript emotions, that end rly made me cry, good job man

I just love the fact that blue ran out of netherwart and went to get more. Then a hour and 19 minutes later everyone comes back from going through a whole plot line. For some reason that is just absurdly funny to me.

The time management is on point, and those fight scenes are off the charts. You geniuses have really outdone yourselves

Better than any movie i've ever watched. We get to see character growth, amazing fight scenes, sad backstories, amazing heart to heart moments and so, so much more. Truly a masterpiece

At the bottom left corner, you can see Blue was holding a piece of paper. Which was a reference from "The Chef". (Which was at 55:12)

This should be a show on Netflix

The fact that you added something to your animations to make them feel more lively is a great concept and works very well in explaining the plot.

Considering that the Minecraft icon can be used to spawn items at will, this entire season could've been avoided if Blue had spent three seconds thinking.

진짜 천재라고 밖에 안느껴진다.

i can't help but watch it over and over again! its so good!!!

The fact that, not only did Alan time everything to one another, but also added some things to make it make sense, is absolutely amazing! Kudos!

9:40 Not all Heroes Wear Golden Helmets

never have i felt this much emotion when watching an animation. glad i am that it had a good ending.

the seamless joining of the two sides at 1:06:00 is so good, i can't get enough of that

Just decided to make timestamps for all frame changes, just for fun 0:00 Two frames, Blue on the right and Green, Yellow, and TSC on the left 1:42 The two frames combine 1:52 Back to original format. This stays the same for a while. 11:46 Red, Yellow, Green, and TSC are together in one frame, whilst Blue appears in the top-right as a piston 12:09 Red appears in the bottom-right as a salmon 12:24 Yellow appears in the center-right as a llama 12:32 Green appears on the right (second to the bottom) as sugar cane. 13:29 Yellow joins TSC in the main frame 15:06 Red joins Yellow and TSC in the main frame 16:51 Green's frame is replaced by the Witch and the pig in the Witch Hut. 18:24 Blue's frame moves to the entire screen 19:11 The pig stays in the left frame, while Blue moves to the right frame. 19:23 The frames are shifted around as TSC and the other stick figures fight the Witch in the main frame. 19:47 The frame moves to Blue as the other frames are removed. 19:51 The pig appears in the bottom-right. 21:25 The pig's frame moves to the entire screen 21:34 The stick figures stay in the right screen as the pig and the witch move to the left. 22:00 The pig moves to the right frame, which covers the entire screen. 22:11 Purple appears in the left frame. 22:27 The right frame moves to combine with the left frame. There is only one screen for a while. 29:02 Six frames appear, from left to right: TSC, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, and Purple. 30:50 The frames move to show 30 different parkour rooms, returning to the previous format at 30:58. 32:19 Green and Purple's frames combine. 34:39 TSC's and Red's frames combine. 34:46 Blue's and Yellow's frames combine. 35:26 Green's frame moves to the left side of the screen. The resulting format stays the same for a while. 45:25 Purple appears in the top-right. 46:50 Purple's frame disappears as Purple appears in Red's and TSC's frame. 47:01 Green's frame disappears as Green appears in Blue's and Yellow's frame. 48:20 Red and Purple appear in a frame in the top-right. 49:12 Red moves to the bottom frame as the top-right frame disappears. 49:23 Some Piglin Brutes appear in the top-right. King Orange soon enters that frame. 49:33 Purple appears in the bottom-right. 49:43 TSC's and King Orange's frames combine. 50:25 Purple's frame and the colored stick figures' frame combine. 50:57 Green appears in a frame in the bottom-right as a shot of the vortex appears in the top-left, which soon moves to Red. 51:22 King Orange briefly appears in a diamond-shaped frame in the center, which disappears at 51:27 51:27 Yellow appears in the bottom-middle. 56:33 Red appears in the top-left while Herobrine stays in the top-middle. 57:31 Red's frame and the monsters' frame combine. 58:59 King Orange appears in the top-right. 59:25 Blue's and Yellow's frames combine. 59:40 TSC's and King Orange's frames combine. 1:01:12 Red's and TSC's frames combine. 1:03:07 The frames shift around as Yellow's and Blue's frame combines with TSC's and Red's. 1:04:28 Purple's and Green's frame combine with the other stick figures'. 1:05:49 Herobrine appears on the right. 1:06:03 Herobrine's frame combines with the main frame. 1:09:29 Four other frames briefly appear, from left to right: Monster School, the village, the crimson forest, and the Witch's hut. They disappear at 1:09:46 1:13:18 The main 5 stick figures appear on the right. 1:13:26 The left frame separates into King Orange on the top-left and Purple on the bottom-left. 1:15:24 All frames are replaced by TSC on Alan's PC. 1:16:05 Although there is a split-screen here, it was included in the original episode. 1:18:27 The screen splits into two frames, with TSC on the left and Red on the right. 1:18:42 The screen goes back to a single-frame format as the credits begin.

1:09:31 Does no one else think that the world of note block universe is missing from this scene?

16:43 I felt Blue’s pain when he hit that area even though am a girl ☠️

The fact that this isn't just the same videos is amazing, some parts are faster, other parts take longer or have an extra scene is genuinely cool to me.

The entire season just became 1000% better with the small new parts they added to make it align better!

11:05 uhh (PS: if I actually watch more of this maybe I’ll realize) edit: i realized.

1:06:02 the cleanest transition ive ever seen 🤯

the transition between red and TSC at 34:34 is actually really smooth and clean

This is quite impressive. Having multiple split screens sure does make a unique impression. Focusing on one aspect and how it connects is very interesting. Kudos Mr. Alan Becker for the wonderful animation.

Real man dont cry Im not a Man in a boy and a tear Fell in The end This thing is beautiful

alan becker never disapoints, this might be my 4th time rewatching the 3rd season... its so good!

1:09:14 I will never forget the fact, that the only thing the Warden thought about before being eliminated, was to help to The Second Coming, while the rest, all they thought about was trying to escape or giving their last

I would love it if each of them had their own weapon and style of combat: - Red is definitely a brawler, so he’d have no weapons or maybe make use of brass knuckles. - Blue, as an herbalist, would use a Sickle or Scythe, alongside his potions. - Yellow would use a hammer, as he is the resident engineer. - Orange would use the classic Sword, being the classic of the five. - Green would use a trident, as the weapon has been seen to create electrified noteblocks. Maybe also some enchanted instruments to be like a DnD Bard

i enjoyed this video😊 i'm fan of alan

I never realized how good of friends yellow and blue are, they stayed together most of the season and also it seemed like yellow chose blue instead of red, to be fair blue was closer but he still could have saved red, and blue literally dove in for a hug with yellow when they got reunited compared to when they reunited with green.

1:06:19 top 10 most menacing staredowns

If someone detacated their entire day to watching one of these at a time I would love it Edit: i 👍my comment

yes, i enjoy things like this, when stories combine together and happen at the same time as each other in different places

After episode 32 came out, I had to come back here and see at 55:12 blue did find the piece of paper that led to the plot of that episode. Foreshadowing right under our noses. Alan and his team are legends.

30:12 Blue just doesn't want to fight..

The thumbnail is so fire 🔥

As I watch this animation It made me cry and so happy, thank you for good story i'll remember it...always

The attention to detail at 12:50 is amazing because Blue starts moving around like crazy because he's in the Witch's inventory

I still cannot, and will never, get over just how amazing this series has been, since the very start, since I first watched AvA 1. And just the amount of power and feeling you can put into something with never, ever a single word uttered, and practically no facial expressions whatsoever. It's just... absolutely beautiful. I am so glad to have stumbled upon AvA 1 by random happenstance so many years ago now. This has been great, and I can only look forward to more--- keep up the good work, Alan. You're absolutely amazing.

Soo good soo beatuful
