"(King) Odysseus" ANIMATIC || Epic the Musical [ TW: Blood & Violence ] 

I just realized he's aiming for the torches like scylla 😬

"He's aiming for the torches..." Oh, guess Scylla and him are truly the same

"You don't think I know my own palace, I built it!" is a very good line and I love it

"He's aiming for the torches!" He truly has become the same as Scylla.. a monster.

“You know boys, all this time I’ve been agonizing over throwing away my humanity and becoming a monster and if I had the will or not. But here I find you all plotting to kill my son and brutalize my wife and suddenly it’s the easiest decision I’ve had to make through this whole damned voyage.”

I hope Ares got the bloodshed he wanted, Athena did not lie. It's really cool how odysseous essentially became the cyclop's killing the intruders mercylessly. After dealing gods, witches, and giants against which he could do little, he finally was able to show off his power and slaughter all of em. It's really animated, as usual, and I liked the scene at the end with telemachus, I don't think another animatic has done that part yet. Good job!

I just watched the Wisdom saga and after listening to "Legendary" and "Fight little wolf" I had to see those lowlifes go to the underworld by the hands of Odysseus. I can already feel how angry I'm going to get during (probably) the next saga when I listen to "Hold her/him down" part.

"If I fight these monsters, is it you I'll find?" I'M GONA CRY

I love how the "where is he?" Is exactly what is said in man of the house (which is quite ironic considering these men were trying to kill him in HIS house. He is the MAN of the house which also could correlate to the line 'when does a man become a monster'. Changing him from the man of the house to the MONSTER of the house.)

The damned audacity to say they can use their knowledge of his home. After what they were planning, they deserved the monster. Like that’s just a damned insult after all this man has been through.

“I see your palace covered in red, faces of men who had long believed you’re dead, I see your wife with a man who is haunting, a man with a trail of bodies.”

"He's aiming for the torches." "Deep down you know that we are the same.." Does that remind you of something? (Bro mb I did not know someone alr mentioned this ngl) 💀

he aimed for the torches just like Scylla 😭😭😭

Odysseus: Bold of you to assume I don't know my own home

“You don’t think I know my own palace? I built it!” Now that is a raw line.

I noticed that the trail of bodies are similar to the same bodies in the "No Longer You" video when "A trail of bodies" is mentioned by the prophet. It's a brilliant to show what's to come!

man that aiming for the torches line has a whole new meaning after thunder saga. poor ody still feels bad about what he's done.

"You don't think I know my own palace? I built it" F'ing COLD

Prophet: I see your wife with a man with a trail of bodies.... Odysseus: WHO!? Prophet: .....Well, your house is overrun with 100 suitors after her- Odysseus: I'll k-ll them all to protect her! Prophet: .......Odysseus.... Buddy-

"you don't think i know my own palace, I built it" is such a raw line in that context

0:51 "You don't think I know my own palace? I *BUILT IT!* " Than line was hard as a diamond!

0:15 Odysseus can be seen as they walk past and that is terrifying

I really like the predator vibes. Advantages means nothing if the equivalent of batman had to fight everything with disadvantaged. He knows the art of war And the red in his eyes as he meets his son in a green tunic. He gets snapped out of his bloodlust by the contrast, his battle mentality being stopped

Prophet: I see your wife with a man who is haunting, a man with a trail of bodies.😮 Odysseus:WHO?! Me: You!

The prophet was right….a man makes it home but it’s no longer you

"You don't think I know my own palace? I BUILT IT!" I love how scary Odysseus is in this song

Favorite part of the song is "Keep your heads down, he's aiming for the torches!" Bc thats exactly what Scylla did to his men in the darkness of her lair ❤

I love the sound effect they use to represent Ody using his bow

The suitors doing a final callback to Man of the House hits different after the wisdom saga

No wonder scylla said to this man"We are the same you and i"

In the book odyssey, Telemachus was HELPING at this part lol. He got his dads violence streak.

Ares will definitely enjoy this...

Ares got the blooshshed he was promised

Wow. Barely covers it, but I'm speechless. So amazing. And Telemecus at the end? Never guessed he'd appear. Guess I need to pay attention to the music cues better. Love it.

Pov: You return home with your friends after disobeying your dad.

Animatics of this song are always my favourite, seeing the different way people are able to perfectly portray the horror and fear that the suitors are feeling and Odysseus’ ruthlessness and terrifying presence is always so cool! Amazing job ❤

Antinous : ONLY THE OCEAN AND I WILL KNOOWWW posiden : gotcha back buddy

Just a little fun fact: the reason they make a point of saying "Our weapons- they're missing!" isn't just because they're missing normally. In the Odyssy, Athena turns their weapons aside when they try to throw spears at Odysseus and co.

This is really shows what a badass odysseus was even after he sailed for decades.

Seeing him appear in the middle of the four men made me think he crawled to that spot

😂I just love how Odysseus use the same tactic for Scilla

"...You think I don't know my own palace? I BUILT IT!". Love the phrase and the rage.❤‍🔥

One thing I love is that in many animatics it's the one who warns the others that Oddiseas's plans for every fight that is killed. He killed the one who wasn't panicking.

If I fight this monster, is it you I find? That got me going.

Man that prophet wasnt joking when he said palace covered in red

here we see odysseus, a man who has lost 599 men, who sent 6 to their doom knowingly, who chose the deaths of all his remaining men... a man so far gone he can hardly be called a man as opposed to the monster he now is... and you truely brought it to life!

The backing vocals say “Cogi santo” which in Latin means “I forced the saint”

THE DOUBLE BASS FROM 0:33 IT'S THE SAME INSTRUMENT THAT PLAYED FOR POLYPHEMUS WHEN HE WAS THE MONSTER TO FIGHT

this is the one and only time i have ever seen someone aknowledge the "if if fight these monsters is it YOU ill find" i thought i lost it for a few days

This was absolutely amazing and i loved how you kept Odysseus hidden in the shadows and all we saw was his silhouette running around until he is revealed in the center 👏

“I see your palace covered in red, faces of men who have long believed your dead!” The place covered in red is saying that he will kill his wife’s suitors and the faces of men part is implying that the suitors thought Odysseus was dead so they where trying to marry his wife at least that is what I got from that

He wasn't joking when he said "I'll become the monster."

Welp. I guess we are safe to assume this is the trail of bodies the prophet mentioned? Ssssoooo- yay?

he's aiming for the torches just like scylla was :D

STOP YOU DIDN'T NEED TO MAKE ME CRY AT THE END

Wait the King of Ithaca actually went through the trouble of building his own palace? That's...impressive.

THE WAY HE COMES UP FROM THE CENTER WHEN THEYRE BACKS ARE TURNED No other animatic has made that line more sick than this wtf

DUDEEEEEEEE this is soooooo cool!!!! the fact that throughout the whole thing, the only color was red until telemachus showed up with green (the contrasring color to red) is such a cool detail!! and the "if i find the monsters, is it you i'll find" sobbing. amazing work!! it's so beautiful

When this saga actually gets released I am going to go _feral_ Absolutely love when characters go beast mode on people

I love that it makes me feel like I'm watching a horror movie. It looks incredibly cool! Btw, scene Telemachus in the end is heartbreaking omg😭

something about the line "we're up against an archer" scratches my brain in the right way.

Personally I'd like to see the lines of "you don't understand it, this man plans for every fight" and "we're up against an archer" go to Odysseus. It feels in character that this version would get a little cocky and fuck with them while giving a fair warning.

I love the "You don't think I know my own palace?? I BUILT IT!" line SO MUCH. It's a wonderful gotcha moment

Ahhh, your animatics are always so incredible!! Ody dragging the suitor into the shadows in a pool of his blood was siiiick. The reveal was sooo well done, it gave me chills! I was not ready for that ending tho, how dare you 😭

THIS. IS. PERFECT. I NEED YOU TO ANIMATE THE FULL SONG AS SOON AS IT COMES OUT, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFULLY AMAZING!!!!!!

"...I see a man with a trail of bodies!"

The guy dragging off into the darkness with the arrow still in his back was Severely intimidating

absolutely incredible visuals, the feeling of this song is really stark here! It was the first time it clicked the song mirrors directly Odysseus' fight with Polyphemus all those years before, but this time he is the one attacking (it should be obvious with the chorus, but the colors and the pitch black is what made it actually click in my head)

When Odysseus kills the last suitor, I noticed that the stroke of the slash is opposite of the slash he used on Circe in Done For. It is even framed the exact same way, the target to the right of center and Odysseus sneaking up behind them, and then the isolated slash.

Odysseus was practically Batman at this point, and treated his enemies similarly

0:15 Odysseus is literally watching them and planing while they’re talking about them neat detail

It very funny when they are grouped saying “We know this halls it’s our advantage.” And Ody gave them a reality check.

Okay, I'm overanalyzing the inclusion of the Legendary lyrics and you can not stop me You could have put any lyrics there, with any arrangement, but these lyrics were the ones you chose: If I fight those MONSTERS......is it YOU I'll find? You did that on purpose Gwendy, I know you did. Lets look at these lyrics first: The original point of these lines in Legendary is to show Telemachus' admiration of his father. He's asking "If I do what they say you did, will I end up like you?" Or maybe "if I'm like you, will I be Legendary too?" The line is different here. For starters, the way the line is formatted is noteworthy The word "monsters" and "you" are capitalized, showing emphasis. Paired with the visuals, the music, and the context, we get an entirely different meaning. Telemachus isn't asking "Will I be Legendary too?" Anymore, he's asking "If I fight all those monsters, will I end up facing you?" In other words: "are you a monster?" There's a bit more of a hidden meaning aswell. The purpose of the line is for Telemachus to wish to be like his father, fight the beasts he fought. If Telemachus wants to fight the beasts his father fought, and if Monster is anything to go off of, he will inevitably end up facing his father. His fathers internal struggle with becoming the monster means that, for Telemachus to follow in Odysseus's footsteps, he must face a similar fight. Be it his own internal struggle, or a fight against the monster that his father has become. I see you Gwendy and I enjoy your hidden meanings

You don't think I know my own Palace? I built it!

reminds me of Scylla: "you know that we are the same" "keep your head down he's aiming for the torches"

Is it just me who realized that now that he has turned into the monster,he has the same background vocals as polyphemus had in the cyclops saga? Then it was "poly-phemus" now it is "Ody-sseus" while keeping the danger tune that jalapeño has mentioned? Because there is damage and a monster close by,but it isnt him who should be worried

This was awesome, telamachus showing up at the end was a nice touch, but while this was great for a standalone animatic for this still not fully released song if that last guy was supposed to be anti I feel this death would kinda be a little anticlimactic for him

in the background "Ody-Sseus" "Ody-Sseus"

Oh my god “if i fight those monsters is it you ill find” insane 🤯 so good. I loved this so much

00:16 you can see odysseus taking aim

hes aiming for the torches... just like scylla did 😱😱😱😱

0:51 Odysseus: You don't think I know my own palace? *😡 I BUILT IT!! 😡* Terrifying line right there!!!

Odysseus killed the suitors but you killed this animatic!! The fluidity and transitions with the blood and shadows are * chefs kiss*. You truly are talented, man. Sorry I couldn't tune in for the streams for this. This was amazing,🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I see your palace covered in red faces of men who had long thought you dead

From greeting the world with open arms to a literal living horror creature

Cleaning up after this is gone be a nightmare, especially considering he killed some of the help as well

NOOOOOOOOO JORGE. YOU USED THE REVERSE GRIP 😭

Odysseus's journey was hard and full of suffering but it hardened his resolve and improved his skill as a warrior

The fact we can see Ody's cocked arrow in the shadows at 0:15, right where he had run to in front of them just a bit ago...this is gorgeous and brilliant and amazing work! You've earned yourself a new Subscriber!

Anyone notice that the way Odysseus's name is the same as with Polyphemus?

AAAAAAAA THE END! I DID NOT EXPECT THAT, I'VE GOT CHILLS! :D

My god the fact you can see Odysseus moving in the shadows and at the 0:15 bit is so sinister and creepy. Also I love how much red is used, it's so good. ALSO THE DUDE WHO GOT DRAGGED AWAY?!?! DAMN?! Also I love how the suitors dont have visible eyes. AND OH SHIT TELEMACHUS FINDING HIM?!?!?!??!!

OH WHOA WHAT DID I JUST WATCH because masterpiece simply doesn’t cover it. I love every single detail in this, Odysseus popping up like a Jack-in-the-box between the four suitors, the bloody footprints he left behind, the split face between him and Telemachus when the motif came in??? I love this so much!!!❤❤❤

I posted another comment earlier lmao: oddy is the best war game planner, best archer, #1 warrior in Ithica, possibly in the world. and a few men thought that they could fight him? alone? in HIS OWN CASTLE, that HE built? athena should be proud now. Hes also the king of Ithica and everyone knows him.

You think i don't know my palace? *THAT I BUILDED.*

Was that Telemachus, his son at the end when it did the split face with Odysseus? Poor boy looks frightened.

Odysseus got the best lesson out of Skyrim

this is fantastic! love the use of red very effective and that ending?! noooooo

0:33 ahhh the danger motif

I got chills from the telemachus part
