I'm gonna be brutally honest here Lizzie, _years_ of peer pressure, admiration of fanarts, sight of random quotes, as well as emotional rants for this story from friends... and this is the closest I've come to actually feel tempted to touch Manacled. Holy hell, you did an incredible job
OMG!!! dang this is high praise! thank you!!! tbh i was the same until one day i just snapped while seeing something. in any case, thanks so much for the lovely comment!! my job here as an editor is done ❤️🥹
I'm not even joking, this is the most real and beautiful visual of Manacled I've ever seen! You've incorporated the story -so- well, it feels like it may as well be a movie trailer. Absolutely stunning! Thank you for bringing this to us!
I love Tom Blythe as Draco in Manacled. The original Draco always seemed so weak and cowardly to me. Plus I never pictured Emma as Manacled’s Hermione either, I guess cause she looks so different in the original illustrations. Both of them, actually
so happy you like the casting! i feel very similarly - manacled!dramione feels completely different to me then their movie counterparts. tbh, i feel like ff!dramione is just wildly different overall than the canon versions of themselves, lol (and probably why i love them so much)!
I mean, the original Draco's just a broody and helpless minor so that might contribute to his demeanor. Tom Blyth defo would be fantastic as a 20s-30s Draco :-)
This was epic... the casting is actually really good specially draco ... I never could imagine manacled draco as tom felton actually .... but this actor looks perfect ...
Well... I just finished Manacled which I started reading only because of this vid LMAO. You did a beautiful work and thank you for showing me this story that I took so much pleasure to read after
This is masterful. I love the casting choices too! Such a great job matching who the characters are in the story and not giving yourself options for new scene choices to manipulate! Also obvs that Draco is perfect for the tall and menacing vibes. Obsessed.
oh my god, almost in tears... I have never seen such a perfect visualization of smth I read and imagined, and your video basically stole my breath! this is a true masterpiece
DEAR, YOU`RE GODDESS OF EDITING!!! THIS IS WHAT ART SHOULD BE! Honestly, I was crying because of the intense you made. I love Dramione so much, they`re one of my favourite ship in the whole HP universy, but I haven`t read Manacled yet. After this vid I MUST.
AW SHUCKS THANK YOU!!! but what!!! you haven't?! omg! i think i spoiled then almost all of it for you but hope you do read at some point! thanks again for the lovely comment - means a lot 🥹❤️
This is SO good. Snow as Draco is my dream this is just the best trailer for manacled I’ve ever seen really! Thank you for giving me my new Roman Empire.
Wow this is amazing! and my absolute favorite moment from the fanfic at 2:31 made me as emotional as I was while reading it. I'll come back to this edit when I reread it because I'm sure I'm missing more awesome details, it's so good! it really transmits what makes Manacled so special
aw thanks a bunch!!!! sussex is definitely such a pivotal/emotional part of the story and it was one of the first clips i put in. one of my faves!! thanks a bunch for the lovely comment and enjoy the reread (as painful as it may be) 💜
Manacled is one of my favourite fanfics though I don't like dramione and your video really conveys the atmosphere, the themes, the characters, all the reasons why i loved this fic in the first place. Particularly the actors - I watched tbosas and normally I have a grudge against putting actors I already know from different films in roles of other characters, but tom blyth is just a perfect choice for draco malfoy from manacled. Thanks you so much for this wonderful edit, you actually make me want to read manacled again
Esse é o comentário brasileiro que você está procurando! KKKK 🇧🇷 Gente, essa é a melhor fanfic/história Dramione que existe! A autora é simplesmente um gênio, faz o leitor mergulhar de forma profunda no universo de HP. Ela cria personalidades totalmente DIFERENTES um do outro (Mione e o Draco), mas algo inegável é a forma insana como eles se amam e fazem de tudo para se protegerem. É uma história pesada, morte, tortura e estupro. Mas vale a pena ler cada palavra! A autora brinca com o passado e o presente de uma forma surreal e como leitora foi incrível ir percebendo como tudo se encaixava. Enfim, para quem estiver interessado, LEIA! Obs: as cenas do Trailer tem no livro. 🖤
To be honest, until I watched this video, I didn’t want to read the "manacled"... But here I am, reading this amazing story for the second day thanks to you! Thanks a lot!
omg aw shucks!!!!! this made my day, thank you!! ❤ i honestly really loved "let the dark in" by the same author as manacled (and do need to catch up as its a wip!). i LOVE how they write draco/dramione. i also really liked "draco malfoy and the mortifying ordeal of being in love" as more of a romcom vibe!!! its been awhile since i've really gone on a dramione binge so those are my favourites that i remember (there was a REALLY good murder mystery one but it messed me up so bad i fear to rec it lol)
aw thank you!!! there were a few scenes that just SCREAMED hermione! just yeah, rip, went back to our glory days with 2min worth of usable footage ksjdk
FINALLY! I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT CONVEY THE DEGREE OF MY DELIGHT, I WAS WAITING FOR THIS WORK WITH THE RELEASE OF THE BALLAD! It's amazing 1:01, 1:48 and 1:53 DIVINE! I do not know the actress, but she is perfect for the role of Hermione) Honestly, it was to tears, as if I had read the whole story at once! The combination of ballad and Harry Potter dialogues is perfect. And looking at this "version" of Draco... It was like he was in the canon! Heartbreaking edit!❤❤❤❤❤
this comment just made my ENTIRE DAY thank you!!!! omg 🥺🥰 same!!! ever since tbosas i have wanted to vid him SO BADLY as draco!! and then i reread manacled and well... lol! but aw shucks, thank you thank you!! also happy you loved the hermione fancast!! REALLY APPRECIATE THE COMMENT AND LOVE THANK YOU 🤍
@@HeartPhantomIn theory, "shackled" is one of the hardest works on the funkast Dramyons. I read and roared (But it's worth it, right?)) Anyway, my heart goes out to this amazing job!❤
0:37 the worst monsters are those we bring with us OOFFFF that shot with that line is just so chills inducing for some reason 0:42 oh this LOOK 1:14 / 1:22 HELLO MANIP QUEEN!!!!!!!!!!!
kjKJSFSD ILY tbh altered carbon just has such good lines like... damn.... if i could have added the "peace is an illusion" i would have but tbh didn't really make sense. 0:42 the reason i wanted her as hermione tbh kJDFKJS
OH MY GOSH!!!!! the sorcery of your editing skills - i stg, save some talent for the rest of us I also ADORE the fancast you used - idk, whenever i think manacled, i never feel like emma and tom fit. i especially loved how you focused on the flashbacks - they're often underlooked in fanedits. is there any possible chance you could possibly help me out with footage of medalion rahimi? I keep trying to download scenes of her, but I can never find her in the episodes I download dfjjfdklsj;lf
omgggg what a compliment!! 💜 thank you!!!!! and yeah, im the same. tbh most dtamione works i do not envision them at all, so haha. and sure! i mostly used her scandal episodes. you can find my as that_bluebox on twt!
I love Dramione. I read a really good Dramione fic last year. I don't remember the title but Draco and Hermione were both head boy and head girl. If I find the name, I'll come back and leave it here. I would love to see you edit it. 😊 Edit: I found the fan fic I was talking about. It's called 'True Confession' by rons-girl98. I recommend it. It's really good.
Oh my God. This is it. Exactly what Manacled looks like in my mind when I read it. Thank you. It's brilliant. I can't stop watching it over and over again.
