Beeduo Animatic || Ad Astra 

If this became an actual series…. It would become one of my favorites. So intrigued

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I HAVEN'T SEEN THE FIC, BUT THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!! AND IT TOLD THE STORY SO WELL?!?!?! IT WAS GORGEOUS!!!! AS ALWAYS, I'M BLOWN AWAY BY YOUR ANIMATION SKILLS, ESPECIALLY YOUR ABILITY TO SHOW MOVEMENT AND EMOTIONS!!!!

I love all the little mannerisms you out in your animatics, Ranboo turning around in awe while walking at 1:11 made me so happy! Him taking off his crown at 1:41 like DAMN also somehow the way you draw the Eshachi is exactly how I imagined it, are you psychic? Ahhh this makes me wanna reread Ad Astra all over again!

The fluidity of the flapping antennae and the backgrounds and the expressions and the smoothness- I'm not exaggerating when I say I could go on and on about how perfect this is, but I'll summarize: Thank you for this beautiful gift to humanity :)

I love Ad Astra!!! I can't say how amazing this animation is! The fanfiction is sooooo brilliant and seeing it animated makes my heart warm ^_^

This is sooooo stinking cool! Your character design and just how well you truly convey the emotions and story this really is awesome!! I love the action and overall epicn ss

this is EPIC feels like a movie trailer, and the way you got all the major points of the fic into 1 minute 50 secs is amazing. This is so well thought out and I love your art style so much, thank you for everything you do, look after yourself and drink water 🥰

This made a bad day so much better I would give anything to see more of this!

this is gorgeus, it makes me want to binge read the story now

If this was a Netflix show I would spend my whole entire life rewatching and rewatching every episode until I take my last breath. YOU DID AMAZING!!!

I really enjoyed the world building in that story when I read it. It’s so cool to see it animated! I especially love your adaptation of Tubbo’s character design. Thanks for sharing your work with us. Have a lovely day!

This is genuinely beautiful and comes in perfectly as I just finished reading ad astra and stared de terra. :))

Bruh this gave me literal chills, and Ad Astra (and Event Horizon in general) is one of my favorite fics ever, you portrayed it amazingly. Great work.

I loved this 🥰 space adventures are really cool. Also though, the Ad Astra reminded me of something, if you get it you get it. Ad Astra Abyssosque.

absolutely stunning. ad astra was such a wonderful fic to read and seeing it brought to life like this was amazing! you really captured the story well :: nice job casserole!

HOLY SHIT- THIS ALMOST BROUGHT ME TO TEARS IM NGL… this fic was such an emotional rollercoaster for me, and watching it pretty much exactly as it played out in my head as i read it was INSANLY cool. ur so freaking awesome.

Блин, это было гениально взять картинки луны вместо того чтобы пытаться рисовать самому Ну а так, очень прикольно получилось, особенно конец

Casserole, I am here to express my gratitude. First off, your animations never fail to be incredible, and this is no exception. The way you displayed the story is immaculate. But also, I've been searching for a fanfic to binge, and I managed to binge the whole thing today. Once again, I'm grateful. You're an inspiration, keep up the great work. :)

AHHHHH THIS IS SO COOL OMG THE DESIGNS ARE SO IMMACULATE

This is beautiful!! Love ur animatics so much! Also can we get a de terra too perhaps? Would be awesome!

I haven’t read the fic, but the fact that you managed to bring the story to life this beautifully is incredible! Well done, I was absolutely enraptured the whole time! :D

The story itself is amazing, but this is honestly gorgeous- the designs and expressions, it’s all so cool!

I just spent several hours reading Ad Astra because of this. Thank you for the introduction to this amazing storyline.

THIS IS INCREDIBLE. ad astra is a masterpiece, and the way you interpreted all of the major events in the story is so great, my gosh. (also the character designs are GORGEOUS)

I finished reading Ad Astra not too long ago and this encapsulates the story so well! Made me cry all over again 🥺😭

nice [ edit. Ello ] (another edit. I guess I’m first lol.)

черт, как же круто смотрится.... как всегда невероятно выглядит как то, что надо почитать - интересно, на фикбуке уже есть перевод, чтобы не напрягаться самому?..

I have been putting off reading Ad Astra for months now and I feel like your animatic singlehandedly convinced me to actually read it proper

Literally no way my favorite animator and my favorite fanfic I’m literally punching air rn this is literally phenomenal I’m speechless

Holy shit that’s awesome-

everyone is making fanart of this fic, maybe i should check it out

I saw this, and went to read the fanfic. Nearly six hours later, I’m back and my GOODNESS. The clean movements are amazing, this whole thing was gorgeous

AAAHHH THIS IS SO GOOD! the expressions! the body language! the lil spin Ranboo did while he was walking around! there wasn't even color but the background in scenery was so pretty! I'M FREAKING OUT I LOVE THIS

This is soo cool! Really makes me want to read the fic. You did a great job at capturing tension with your music choice and dynamic shots. The posing and expressions were amazing as well. Great job!

THIS FIC IS ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES!!! It's literally so good, I love the worldbuilding, all the aliens, and especially Beeduo's dynamic throughout the whole thing. This animation is SO COOL and it 100% captures the feel of the fic. Amazing job!

Holy crap this animation really hits different when you just finished reading the book... This is amazing

YESSSSS IM SO EXCITED

"To The Stars" I've always found the phrase beautiful, and this gives a lot of meaning to it.

I watched this, made me NEED to read the fic, read it and came back here… I’m speechless this is AMAZING

Your beautiful animation was recommended to me. Never heard of the fanfiction before so to get more context I went and read it. I started at 8pm. It's 4am and I'm sobbing. You portrayed everything so nicely, even the smallest of details. You did an awesome job, keep up the good work :)

I walked in with no expectations and left incredibly amazed, the movements were so fluid :0 Then I looked at the channel I was on and realized I should've only expected greatness! You deserve more popularity

This… this made my jaw drop. The lighting and music and just.. overall tone fits so well together!! And each and every expression shows just. Pure emotion. This animation is something that I would hope to be like one day. You truly are an inspiration. I love it!!

OH GOSH IT WAS TOO COOL the animation was AMAZING !! And everything is so well paced and so well drawn damn it I die ! The story seems amazing too, now I have some reading to do >:D Wouaaaa thanks for all that !!

It took like seven watches, but the way the subtitles portray their characters is amazing! Tubbo’s confident and blocky speech in lowered letters to show how in control and calm he feels in the situation, contrasting Ranboo’s thin and eccentric capitalized speech to show his panic and how unsure he is. I may be over thinking it, and it just a way to discern accents or characters, but it’s brilliant nonetheless!

This is so cool

My hope is to one day get a bunch of people, and all of us work together to make fanfics like this into a tv series or movie. Just imagine the whole dsmp as a tv series! Or Passerine! Or Ad Astra and De Terra! It's my dream.

i would just like to say that i saw this in my recommend yesterday and then proceeded to binge the entire 86k word fic today. this is so lovely and thank you for the amazing art!!

Watching this my only thought is: Do I have the mental stability necessary to commit to another fanfic? The answer is no but it's already queued. Thank for the intro :)

This fan fiction still has my f***ing heart! I'm NOT over it-

Ad Astra/ De Terra are both probably the best fanfics Ive come across in my very limited time on Ao3. They are so underrated and made me discover things about myself I never would have. Thank you for this animatic, truly.

I LOVE THIS SM!! GOOD WORK, AS ALWAYS! ✨🥹

HOLY SHIT. HOLY FUCKING SHIT. AD ASTRA IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE FANFICS OF ALL TIME. THIS ANIMATION IS FUCKING INSANE. I LOVE THIS SO SO MUCH. I AM JUST SO GENUINELY AWESTRUCK RIGHT NOW. GOOD FUCKING JOB, MAN!

YOOOOOOOO

I read through all 80000 words of the fic after watching this animatic and now I'm struggling to function as a normal human being. 10/10, would recommend, amazing work on the animatic. Recognizing all of the scenes and knowing the context behind them makes watching it a whole new experience

I was listening to passerine podcast reading this, i love ur animation for this

ive read the fic, and this is just. amazing.

I typically just read Sbi-centric fics but I am 100% going to read this!!!!

YOOOO! INCREDIBLE!!! but y do i feel like Tommy would be like a good villain in this-

I just opened the link to the fic... HOW THE FUCK can someone squish over 80k words in THREE chapters??????????? I'll be so dead at the end of this... *proceeds reading anyway*

I JUST READ THE FANFICTION AND REALLY, THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR SHOW ME THIS AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL FANFIC LIKE THAT MY FAVORITE BY FAR❤❤❤❤ PLUS THE ANIMATION IS JUST AMAZING ( after read it I watch it again and I like how I recognize every scene 😂❤)

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS THIS IS SO GOOD I CANT PUT THIS INTO WORDS OMFG YES,I read the fanfic-both of them-and I can just say you animated it SO FREAKING GOOD ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Bro. Dude. My guy. I saw this at 10:30 on a school night. Now I have to read this. thANKS A LOT. Edit: I finished it + De Terra a bit ago, and WOW

Wait?! Is this a AO3 ff? Okay, bye. Reading another heartbreaking DSMP fanfiction.

LITERAL CHILLLLS. is this a fan ficition? Im going to look for it and read it. This look so COOL!

th1s 1s SO GOOD EARLY GANG HOLY SHIT

Idk if y'all knew, but uhh I didn't soo, there's a second book to Ad Astra- It's called De Terra and it's not fanmade but actually from Hellenite too

THIS IS SO AWESOME! Every little detail Every movement Man I am simply obsessed I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!! God you imagined it the same way I did and that’s so awesome!!

HOLY CRAPPPPPP THIS WAS THE COOLEST MOVIE TRAILER EVERRRRR 😆💙✨💙 But actually your work inspires me so much. Every movement, every frame, every background. I’m absolutely speechless!

I WANT TO WATCH THIS!!! I love that you made that masterpiece but I hate that it’s not a actual movie I can watch 🥲

My thoughts when first reading the fic: "Ad Astra Abososque (idk how to spell), welcome to the adventurer's guild!"

GWAH- I see I'm a bit late, but queen's past, I LOVE THE EVEN HORIZON SERIES!! Btw, if you haven't already, read De Terra! It's the second part, and it's amazing! :D Also, heavy applause for you from me cuz I tried so hard to draw the Eshachi, and I couldn't get the image in my head onto paper, so good job!!!!

No cause I binged this fic so fast as soon as I saw this. Plus the sequel (that last chapter doe- 😭😩). This whole series was so fucking good, it's all I can think about. The plot plus development for both Tubbo and Ranboo was flawless and extremely unique. HUGE recommendation for people who like heavy angst with their fluff and platonic beeduo shippers (second story is where the ship stuff is highly more prominent). The fact that I read both of them within 24 hours, I'm sorry, I CANNOT get over how good it is. Please, anyone who hasn't read it, PLEASE do! You will not regret it!

After i watched the animation.Wich was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!I went to check out the fanfic because i didnt understand much of the animation at first.The fanfic was AMAZING!!.And the animation had so much meaning after it.I HIGHLY recommend reading the fanfic because it has everything in it, angst,wholesome moments and i LITERALLY CRIED reading the fanfic!!!!!!! And OMG! HOW CAN YOU ANIMATE SO GOOD AND TELLING THE WHOLE STORY AND EMOTIONS?!?!?!?!?! in conclusion this was STUNNING AND SMOTH!!!!:D

After watching this, I read the story and I have never been more invested in something in my life.

If this became a series I'd absolutely watch it. It's just beautiful

This is the perfect trailer for it Also BEEDUO YESS Edit: One of Tubbo’s quotes was "i kind of imagine you rolling around campus in a giant plastic ball." Can you…Can you do that?

Happy to say I found one of my new favorite beeduo books through this animatic, and watching it again after I’ve reread the fan fiction is surreal :) This is awesome!

I love your animations soooooo much! ❤️ You can tell beautifull stories with them.

Hello, hi, I hadn't heard of this fic 24 hours ago, but now you and Hellenite have consumed aproximately 98% of my brain. I doubt y'all will be leaving any time soon

I LOVEEEE AD ASTRA THIS IS SO SO PRETTY !! wonderful job :D

My god Casserole.... your animations are things I will watch again and again because your ability to show the intense emotions and key moments in a story/idea is incredible. I am so in love with this animation, not even knowing the context or fic it comes from. I can readily follow the beats of this story and ahhh my FEELINGS!!! This one, and the Always Gold animatic are just.... I will always rewatch these. Bless. Keep up the amazing animations!!! I am so excited to see what you do next!

I LOVE IT SMMMMM! i have minor astrophobia, so the fic was sort of hard to read, but it was SO GOOD! and now it appears im using your animations as refrences to make movement look good.

This is what the Beeples would be in lazers and feelings. [No I will not give any context]

I just realized how much the song “Demons” by Alec Benjamin fits this story, from both Tubbo _and_ Ranboo’s perspectives (*especially* Ranboo’s…) _I’ve got all these demons, hiding_ _underneath, nobody can see them,_ _nobody but me,_ _And you’re the reason,_ _the only thing that keeps me from_ _diving off the deep end…_ _…Well, at first I thought I'd have to bear this weight by myself_ _But when my knees were getting weak and I was in need of help_ _You were there to take away the pain that I felt…_ _…And even when I turned my back on you, you never let me down…_ _…you forgave me and you gave me hope…_ Gee… I never really understood the song but now I think I do (Like seriously, look up the song, pretty much the whole thing could be a soundtrack to this story and _hearing_ it is just… :’) )

I LOVE THIS I didn't understand at first but as it went on It became so emotional and exiting I really wish you could make a full movie sort of thing off this it's so amazing and I know everyone loves it

Wings of Fire thing: Is it just me or is the way Ranboo meets Tubbo is literally Winter and Qibli-

after a rewatch of the raw amazingness, i noticed some points could be a nod to @Laggieo's Shut up! and dance animations. like at 1:23 and 1:35. not calling you out, not accusing you of copying. Just thought it was cool.

Wow, this is sooo good, the way you fluidly designed beeduo, you deserve more views and likes🤗🤗🌟🌟

I see a new fic has just popped off- AIGHT TIME TO READ IT-

I came back and rewatched this after reading the fanfic (beautiful btw, absolutely loved it), and I felt like I needed to cry because of how well this is made in every aspect

THIS IS LITERALLY MY FAVORITE FIC AND OH MY GOD. I CAN TELL YOU FROM THE UNCOUNTABLE TIMES IVE REREAD IT, YOU GOT EVERY EXPRESSION MOOD AND DETAIL CORRECT !! THIS IS ACTUAL SKILL AND TALENT, NEW SUB :D

This animation summarised the fic very well. And the animation is amazing and cause me to want to read the fic. I also like how you show the emotion of the characters and all that. Very well done...

I was about to comment "You should turn this into a series exploring the story more in depth" and then I saw the Ao3 link and now I know what I'm reading tonight.

I looked at the comments in the middle of the animatic(while they were dancing and stuff) and saw it was a fix so I immediately read it and was on it and enjoying them all having mental breakdowns because angst is my one of my favorite things and books and stuff. And when it was done, I was just so happy there is a part two so I better start reading it now. This was great and thank you for bringing this amazing story to my attention. I want to tell my sister to read this right now but she doesn't like when characters have too much emotional pain in them, because "it physically hurts!" even though that's the entire point of being emotionally invested in a story.

This is actually what convinced me to read And Astera, and I'm glad it did!!

This is awesome!! I found the fic from this and after you read it, the animatic just hits different. Your art and faces and poses and stuff are so expensive too!!!

YES!!! I absolutely LOVE THIS fanfic!!!!

This was the reason i red this fic and i am extreamly happy i did, im now on De terra the second enstallment that has already pulled at my heart EDIT: finished both and me oh my my heart.

There was a moth slowly crawling toward my foot as I watched this

Why did the title remind me of that one thing that Katherine ( this is a Genshin reference ) would always say when you greet her 👁👄👁
