LOVE, DEATH + ROBOTS Season 2 Every Ending Explained! 

I want Snow In the Desert to be a feature length film it was so good.

The drowned giant was forgettable!

All through the house was my favourite!!!

@@MakerInMotion me too those two episodes were the best

What-If: Afro Samurai VS. Akame (Hear Me Out)

I really couldn't tell from some episodes. Was crazy

I'm pretty sure there was some actual on set shots, like the last battle because the humans looked too realistic

@@funnelingspace9268 probably not, there’s a site called Metahuman where you can create really crazy realistic looking humans which they probably used. Also using more detailed textures and materials can give the look for realism, and also lighting. Everything seemed like it was made in a 3D software

the girl from this episode was very realistic

no for me it was Life Hutch Michael B Jordan looked way too real in this like where he is lying on the ground that looked Photo real and im still not sure if it was CGI or not XD

How can they even say anything about binge watching this. One episode of GoT is longer than the whole season 2

I think they said "binge irresponsibly"

100% - like reading a great sci-fi short story anthology with beautiful imagery added.

Same here. I stumbled upon the show two days ago and watched all 18 episodes. I couldn’t stop watching. Every single episode kidnapped my attention. I could not get away. Can’t wait for season 3.

@@iamSelfSufficient have you enjoyed the 3rd season. I love the mythology they use in every episode.

And being hounded by the unrelenting machines reminds me of constant "are you sure you don't want RU-vid premium/Amazon prime etc." adverts

@@Fredreegz Ill do you one better - We’ve been trying to reach you about your cars extended warranty

It was an easy miss since the entire episode was a bit of a bore and relied so heavily on being silly. I felt it was the weakest episode of the season.

Very good point.

i dont see how

Ong it’s was fire, wish it was 17 minutes

So true man

The director of that short has worked with Gorillaz for years. His name is Robert Valley, I would recommend checking out his other work. P.s. he directed Zima Blue in Volume 1.

@@raquelavila7675 damn thats amazing! thanks for explaining!

That was the best one imo

Netflix really does need to make some of these episodes into an actual show. I really need an continuation from Beyond the Aquila Rift

@@TNovix I always felt like this format is a perfect way too throw out a bunch of pilots to test the waters.

I would like more of Sonnie's Edge and Aquila rift as well

@@VeteranSoldier Honestly. So many good starters

Same!!

Yeah, marriage isn't forbidden, it's just that immortal people will eventually lose those attachments to someone, not all but most people marry because they don't want to die alone, but when there's no certainty that you're going to die at all; that kind of falls by the wayside. Only thing that was forbidden was reproducing, because of the overpopulation.

yea that’s exactly what I thought pretty sure you’re right

Both are a good reflection

True

Christmas was actually my least favorite one i looooved the snow dude one

This Christmas episode deserves to be a full 45 minute episode

@@Maria-sg3zn when it comes to the CGI then I rank the Christmas one much lower. My absolute least favorite was the life hutch. (Beautiful CGI but I felt the story was completely random and had no obvious meaning)

@@Maria-sg3zn but ya snow in the desert was pretty cool I just enjoyed the dark humor of santa being a demonic monster that MIGHT have eaten bad children and MAYBE turned them into Christmas gifts for the good kids

I think most of them are adaptatuons of short stories. Thats why

True, but I put stock in the old adage of 'leave em wanting more'.

Imagine it as a game... like death stranding. Would be AWESOME

It’s based on Neal Asher’s books about the Polity, they are all brilliant

That's why it's called an anthology bruh

The only bad ones were the giant and the robot Tryna kill the old lady

Season 1 had un-naturally unique story like " The Witness" or "Beyond the Aquila Rift" S2 has Realistic render and animation but most of the stories are not too bad.

@@Orexvvt The giant episode was too philosophic which I personally liked and I thought about it for a while after finishing the episode. The robot and lady episode was bad in my opinion, too.

@@Orexvvt Nah the homicidal Roomba one was at least funny. All the other ones (I'm looking at you Snow in the Desert) were just there to show off visuals. Volume 2 was a complete dud.

@@BalkanRedneck I kinda didn’t like the episode of the guy getting of the train and stuff, at first it was good but they they added demon which to me was kinda eh

Yup, he was modeled off Lovecraft and Mark Twain and Edgar Allen Poe is also in the newspaper

Very underrated episode imo

And those monsters were so beautiful but so terrifying, I like how they even conflicted with each other and I loved the horror of the seemingly endless grass fields.

Its based on a fully fleshed out movie

@@basedbattledroid3507 Check out "In the Tall Grass" Genuinely weird and spooky film.

True, Ice and Zima Blue were both animated by Robert Valley, he's a great artist.

Same They are my favorites

There might be less episodes but that just means more frequent volumes so it ain't really a problem

it was no animation but it looked Fantastic yo

I was wondering about the same thing so I laughed so hard when the kid said it aloud 😅

Omg the tension they built in it, I honestly had no idea if the little boy was going to be good or bad, and I was horrified like them after "What if we werent good?"

@@justrandom5012 It is animation. Stop-Motion animation is one of the earliest forms of animation.

@@Xero_Wolf you’re actually wrong there, stop motion is easily the most difficult and gruelling forms of animation and requires a lot of time and attention to detail, this probably helps to explain why the episode was so short

yeah CGI becomes crazier by the day I mean you barely notice any difference from reality at this point, what will happen in...lets say 2050? How will movies look like then lmao 20 years ago Tamagochi was the greatest shit some 9x9 pixel mini device with the most simple programming and these days we have the newest smartphones, mini computer with massive space who we can put in our pockets and some of them will be foldable in the future lol

That’s probably true, honestly. To me MBJ is overhyped and he’s definitely not worth it if that’s what they did lol

@@VisceralCarbon couldnt they have modeled a MBJ look alike for 100th of the cost and call it a day?

Volume 3 slated for 2022, hoping for more longer episodes.

nope you are wrong

@@VeteranSoldier Not too much of a lookalike. Actors have "likeness rights" too. Like if you made an action figure based on an actor, they get a cut. Lindsay Lohan sued Rockstar Games because she thought Michael's daughter looked too much like her in the load screen and cover art. She didn't win, but it shows its a thing that has to be taken into account when designing characters.

My fave is the tall grass. It has such a powerful metaphor. The train represents life. In the episode, the train stopped, and just like life, we sometimes encounter challenges that made our world stop. The protagonist represents us all, we sometimes get lost and wander out of the path even though our loved ones/friends told us not to (train operator). Outside the straight path (the train tracks) are distractions in life (monsters) that will either take us away from the right path or even destroy us fully. What I love the most about the Tall Grass was the resolution. That no matter how many monsters we face, there is still hope of going back to the right path. And some people just like the train conductor will always be there to help us. It reminds us that we are not alone and there is always still hope. 🙏

The blue demons are doctors trying to keep the man alive

Best comment in the whole thread! Love this interpretation!

⁠​⁠@@BisayaReader Great Interpretation Bisaya👏🏽👏🏽

Sense8 was really great too, but Netflix cancelled it 😭

What we know is a drop, What we don't know is an ocean

What about black mirror?

@@promptengineered Initially it was not a Netflix series. Just like Cobra Kai. But I love both of them and great shows.

Yes definitely, season 2 felt held like they were scared to go to a dark place

100% I feel like they dumbed-down the episodes in season 2

I concur with every one of your points. I was left disappointed, it was still better than a lot of things out there, but it didn't hold up to season one. I would have loved at least one continued story or world from season one.

I agree. Volume 1 is a breakthrough. It’s bold and dark which I thought could intensify in volume 2 which didn’t happen.

I agree 100%. "The witness" episode was probably the most unique animation I've ever seen too, and I love the twists in season 1 episodes. Season 2 just wasn't as strong story wise and animation wise. I was disappointed in the lack of unique animations and story telling. The only episode I really enjoyed from season 2 was the Christmas one.

Perspective is a powerful tool in the belt of an artist. Seeing how things could be is sobering. Things aren’t quite that bad yet, but we must remain vigilant to prevent such situations from happening, to the best of our ability.

Yeah, just more proof that immortality would suck, especially if population control became that prevalent across the world to the extent that there were no children left. Haven't been that depressed since half life 2.

Best episode IMO. Snow was a great story, but Pop Squad cut DEEP and I feel that is the point of the show.

Yeah it becomes pretty clear early in the episode that the giant is actually a whale, that is depicted as a giant human because that's how the protagonist views him. In the first few lines he describes that the giant's gender is apparent through subtle features, the way a biologist or zoologist might notice the sexual dimorphisms in animals that they study. None of the people treat him as a giant person, nor is there any global shock about the existence of another humanoid species on the planet. It's not until the final line that the narrator really confirms that it is a whale and that only the narrator views him as almost human.

isn't the a scene of some workers talking about cutting up to the hips?

@@fakename9186 Havent thought about it that way. Makes sense that they boiled the meat and probably ate it. Wouldve been weird if it was a giant and they ate basically a human.

thats interesting, i thought this ep was bad before, now im just peed

No totally wrong.

All the House is my favourite

Same, All Through the House is my favourite as well 😂

All The House was weirdly wholesome. 😂😂

Mine started with Automated Customer Service and quite frankly it was my least favorite. It took me a few episodes to shake off how bad it was, I enjoyed the season but felt with such a short list they should have done better. Season One had some weak episodes, but there were 18 of them. With so few this season they should have all been Aquila Rift and Zima Blue level.

yeah thx to u i noticed that too

Yea I missed that awesome detail! Thanks for pointing that out

Okay as long as I wasn't the only one 😂😂

Wdym

@@gagalover2k10 when he sniffs Billy he wretches. You can see he’s judging him. Then he pats him on the head, says ‘stay good Billy’ and laughs maniacally. It implies he sees the bad path Billy will take

Same for the pop Squad. I have commented.

I got Equilibrium vibes from Pop Squad.

Mostly Blade Runner.

Yep. Pop Squad gave me Altered Carbon Season 1 vibes. Man, I miss that show. I hate that it was cancelled.

Yeah I can feel for that too

We all experience life similarly. We all grow up to some degree and eventually die. It’s inevitable. We may think highly of ourselves, but how easy is it for us to die? How often do accidents claim lives? Series like this bring out the writer in me. The existential dread brings me back to this place of mind where I wish not to dwell long. The void is not so pleasant to visit for long.

Even in death the Giant left a mark. Signs that he was there.

To realize your mortality makes you a better man. Nothing will left after you but memories for the others. And not far away even they will be gone for good. That makes all the greed and fight for power pointless. At the end nothing really matters, so why to make the life miserable? We are giants, and all the strength we posses cannot surpass the current of time.

Was it a Giant Human or a Whale? People were telling me the giant human was actually a Whale? But I'm still confused

@@Hyraladen that's their interpretation. It doesn't mean that's the only 'correct' one. It's based on a philosophical story in the first place, so it's not like it's a puzzle to be deciphered.

Altered Carbon vibes.

I know! I think this was my favourite episode in this volume.

Only true fans got that reference!💯

THE FATHERS STORY IS NEVER DONE!

Resident Evil lmao

It's good entertainment, but the entire thing is less thought provoking. In my mind the first volume worked well because they were able to condense a thought provoking theme in a measly 9 minutes for most of the episodes. The only episode in this volume that does the same is Pop Squad. Snow would be 2nd but even then the entire thing can be summed up in the sentence "man, living forever would suck".

@@bryant8307 that's totally fair. I suppose it's to be expected, considering there's almost a third less episodes compared to the first. If there's any truth in the idea that they've split this season in two, then hopefully we get a few more stories that leave us thinking next year. I'm happy to have an hour or two of simple entertainment, though.

I heard season 3 will also have 8 episodes 😭

Feels unlikely, they might pull a Game of Thrones and give us 6 or Black Mirror and even less.

I think the reason the episodes are so good is because they’re so short, it allows you to try and fill the gaps in the story and ponder more on its meaning

MAY GOD HEAR YOUR PRAYERS. #MOREISBETTER

no way that takes away the whole point of Love death and robots there supposed to be short stories no longer then 15 min thats what makes them great having them any higher would just be to much and the quality would prob be shit as well as the story

That’s my order too

That sounds like my order

My order started with the killer robot cleaner, and did so had with snow and the giant story

That was my order too, Automated Customer Service, Ice, Pop Squad, Snow in the Desert, Tall Grass, All Through the House, Life Hutch and The Drowned Giant. For some reason my season 1 order changed though.

The giant one was a nice concept though - there is pathos in reimagining the whale as a human.

@legend of Awww Sheet ! I don't understand why Netflix wouldn't pour money into the series after season 1, it was amazing! And the intense gritty ones were the best ones! I DESPARATELY wanted more of Pop Squad and Snow.

5/10

Ironically the 7m episode was one of the most fully realised. It's about the execution rather than the length of time.

@@gaspanda sure the idea was played out fully but I feel like it was one of the most unoriginal episodes. If we're talking about the Christmas one.

@@tiannawoodson6750 well yeah you have got Krampus but I still thought it was nicely done

Same for me. Drowned giant was my season 2 finale.

In Life Hutch he is literally trying to stay alive against a robot trying to kill him haha. The Tall Grass and The Drowned Giant both did a pretty good job covering the theme of death and what happens after you die. You could argue that Ice was about brotherly love? A Through the House though I don't think fit the theme.

@@jmrabz well life hutch was meh and without that morbid hand scene it would be as stale as the Drowned giant

I agree. Season 2 just wasn't as strong story and animation wise. Season 1 had amazing twists and connected me with the characters, it also had very unique and beautiful animation styles. "The witness" from Season one is one of my favorites because the art style has never been seen before and it blows me away, the twist was so good too. Season 2 just wasn't that great. I didn't connect with much of the characters and most of the episodes stories felt eh. It was good, but very disappointing.

Also is the animation for Ice the same as Zima blue? Is it possible that they're in the same universe? I will be looking into that

@@goosetoes98 I think its because they had the same director, like how The Drowned Giant and Pop Squad also had the same one

Your profile pic could be a twin for my daughter! Had to double check to make sure it wasn't her yt account

Can you explain to me the drowned giant, I didn’t get it

@@giovanni9208 sooner or later we are ALL the giant.

In my opinion “ice” was the best one

I'd watch that

Just watch The Mandalorian it's the same damn thing.

@@dubrob210 Yes This snow feels intresting and also he is a immortal space traveler who feel in love with a advanced cyborg That is simple and easy to enjoy than mandalorian

@@ramchannel4921 not to mention that earth actually exists in snow's universe

@@bigpharma2705 Yes

Yes, i'm still thinking that the creature would have not been put into a classic, boring rampage mode if they have not been good, after all beside its apparence it seems to ne nice with kids.

I agree.

i had problems with some episodes in season 1, like The Dump, Blind Spot and i hoped they will fix it in season 2 and won't do some meaningless, forgettable episodes based just on simple story and action, but no. Also 8 episodes is very few, if you do so little episodes you should think of every episode being full packed with amazing stuff

I think that on average vol 2 quality was better than 1, but vol 1 had more memorable episodes like Aquila Rift and The Hunt

I disagree. I really loved some episodes.

It reminded me of blade runner!

You are and the Corrupted people I'm this... Don't include everyone else...

@@Hyraladen wut

Not all that’s a bad thinking

Same
