Jamie Muscato’s version is scary and emotional and super raw. He really puts himself in the character’s shoes. While some renditions are more focused on JD being caught between his desire for Veronica and his bloodlust, and are softer vocally in comparison, Jamie’s JD is beyond redeeming and has taken on a more manic and overall psychotic IMO. If you haven’t seen the Heathers musical, I totally suggest it and there’s a free version floating around online that isn’t the best quality wise but is super enjoyable and it has Jamie in the cast! And if you find another version, all of them are filled with talented casts.
"Veronica, I made you a snack" could totally be Rika bringing elixir, haha Really great animatic, I love the Unknown flashes and how emotionally expressive these figures are, well done :D
Near the end with those flashes to Unkown was just perfect on so many levels. The way you portrayed the gunshots was also really well done! I like how you used this version of the song instead of the more popular one. This one shows the insanity that is going through the singer's head and fits him just right.
Dear author, Everyday I am searching for new Mystic Messenger animatics on YT with hope to find something good. Today was the day I found something that wasn't good. I found something brilliant! Thank you so much for creating such a great animatic with one of the Heathers's songs, which is my favorite musical beside of Hamilton. Hope you will create more amazing videos for us. I send u kisses!
Your comment really made my day, I thought no one would be interested in this video since the mm fandom is pretty much death. Thank you 💖 I have yet to watch Hamilton but all my friends say it's great so I can't wait to catch up!! ✨
Omg i was feeling the same i was like ray is too precious to go crazy i mean violently like this not that he's not crazy at all he's still crazy for mc in his own way 😉😉
There has never been a song that I thought portrayed Ray more. Especially when he starts to slip into Unknown. This portrayed this so well and the animation was beautiful to go with the song that you could say it was from mystic so heres a like, a sub, and a bell.
I know some people in the fandom adore Ray, but this is pretty much the person he is... He might be better than Saeran, but in the long run, he's also really toxic, manipulative, insecure and obsessed. I like his character and i understand why he is the way he is, i just don't like the idea of him being a love interest... I love your artstyle and characters' expressions are just amazing! Thank you for making this, it fits him so well and i really enjoyed it! ❤
In my opinion both V and Ray were very annoying. They both was toxic, and sometimes boring. Ray and Saeran were terribly annoying, Ray was acting like I child, while Saeran was just plain annoying. I can't even say what was wrong with him, because I feel like everything was wrong. While V story focuses only on Rika, so basically, MC has no interaction with him. I strongly regret spending my hourglasses on a another story. It was not fun at all, and Saeran don’t even have after ending, so his story is unfinished. I’m disappointed.
@@JxxC-gg4pk sareans after ending will be released, we just don’t know when. I personally really liked Saeran / Ray and didn’t really think he was annoying, the part were he verbally and physically abused the player was very tiresome tho and the whole dad thing seemed weird, like they desperately tried to find a storyline for his route. And yeah V really sucked, I like him the least from all the characters, I just feel like V is beyond saving and being able to love again, unlike Ray who just wants to be loved so hard, that he clings to everybody in reach. Both relationships are super toxic, but I feel like with much work and a shitton of therapy and help, Rays relationship could become healthy
@@youre75waterandimthirsty76 V’s route feels more like Rika route. When I finished his rout, I felt I had wasted 11 days, cuz I honestly hate Rika. Nothing can justify her, she’s just horrible person.
@@JxxC-gg4pk True Rika is a victim of her circumstances, but she’s not meant to be liked or redeemed, V‘s route was more of an exploration into the relationship the two had and a forced love between MC and V
tbh i agree. i enjoyed ray’s character a lot actually, his aura was really endearing, but i feel that the story pushes a savior role onto the mc, moreso than the other routes in casual and deep. it was extremely disturbing how mc was so forgiving of the abuse to get a good end, id even go so far as to say they weren’t affected at all. as someone who experienced a lot of verbal abuse and the like growing up, it triggered a sense of helplessness and i ultimately couldnt bring myself to finish the route and forgive him because mc’s apathy to the whole situation was too disturbing . i believe they could have made him work as a love interest by having him and mc be distanced emotionally in order for them to cope in the immeduate aftemath, but they didn’t execute it well imo. it definitely romanticizes abuse. sjdjej sorry this is so long its just been on my chest for a while
Damn this was beautiful, and the situation fits perfectly with the character (depending on the different endings it could also fit Jumin and even Yoosung, seriously, any of the Mystic Messenger boys could react like this under certain circumstances) and I absolutely love it!!
Ⅰ..? Why doesn't anyone talk about the Backrounds so detailed and beautiful? Sorry, I had a need for the effort to be noticeable in making the funds. 😔
I’m losing my mind because JD reminded me so much of Saeran and I thought the MyMes fandom was dead.....I feel like I just stumbled into a gift I wanted but didn’t know existed...nice job, holy shit. Also your art is incredible! I love your take on Saeran and MC. I also think it’s fascinating how you chose to use V route Mc for this instead of Saeran route Mc....a really excellent detail I didn’t immediately notice. Thank you so much for making this; I’m sure it was a labor of love!
Omg this is amazing I’m so happy to find someone who still supports this fandom I’ve played for so long but many people left the fandom so I’m glad to see that someone can make something so amazing for it and make it feel like it’s still great!
Mystic Messenger really manged to cheer me up when I was sad back in the days, I guess I'm still very attached to it :) I'm glad to see others who feel the same
Jdjwdolwkeke honestly where do I even start? First of all the expressions?? So amazing and the emotion they convey is just y e s. Second the movements are just so fluid and nice, again, amazing for covering emotions. Third your art style and the way you depict characters is just so great they look wonderful here. And f o u r t h, thank you for feeding the fandom with this amazing food!
Wowow thank you very much for your comment!! I'm glad this experiment went well, since I've been studying things that revolve around the theatre career I always feel the pressure of having to convey feelings the best way possible, I'm glad it made an impact! 💜 And glad that there are still MM fans out there!
this animatic was SO good, and a +10 the fact that this is from the heathers, so i can now picture ray ACTUALLY calling my name heheh. Ty for the lovely animatic :D
I feel like this song portrays the characters well (I haven’t played his route but I feel like it would) and you have a very unique style and I love it!💖
Lmao, forgive me if I’m wrong, but this song is “Meant to Be Yours” from west end heathers Heathers the musical JD acts with a calmish air throughout, even when he’s mad. He doesn’t use much emotion, and when he does it’s prettty yandere. Heathers West End came out after the original Heathers Musical. In West End, they changed some things, and JD is more emotional (to me) So if you want this exact song, its Meant to Be Yours from Heathers West End on Spotify and RU-vid I think. Lol I could be wrong, but this is my favorite song and I’ve heard it a lot so-
This gave me literal chills, I love it. I love the art, the expressions, the backgrounds, the switching of Saeran and Ray, I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS
This is so perfect!!! I'm watching this in 2022. "Meant to be Yours" has become a TikTok trend and I've started playing Mystic Messenger again. THIS IS ABSOLUTE PERFECTION (bc i'm currently on V's route). I AM OBSESSED with the Ray-to-Saeran change in the bridge (?) and the art style is PHENOMENAL!!! 💖
the way you used this version really hit different 😳 from Ray transitioning to Unknown on those shot *chefs kiss* ✨immaculate✨ i feel like this captured his essence very well
words actually CANNOT express how much i’m in love with this. It’s so good, the facials, the art, the timing, everything is max perfection. This is absolutely amazing
HELLO???? I LOVE HOW U ARRANGED AND MADE ALL OF DID, THE ARTSTYLE, THE BACKGROUND, EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD? IT EVEN SCARED ME WHEN HE WENT PSYCHO LMFAO its so impressive ur so talented and deserve to be way more recognised
Oh god- I paused the video to get food and accidentally paused it where he's staring right into the camera like some sort of horror movie antagonist 😨😨😨
Lyrics/letra All is forgiven baby! Come on, get dressed. You're my date to the pep rally tonight! You chucked me out like I was trash, For that you should be dead- But! But! But! Then it hit me like a flash, What if high school went away instead' Those assholes are the key! They're keeping you away from me! They made you blind, messed up your mind But I can set you free! You left me and I fell apart, I punched the wall and cried- Bam! Bam! Bam! Then I found you changed my heart and set loose all that truthful shit inside! And so I built a bomb Tonight our school is Vietnam! Let's guarantee they'll never see their senior prom! I was meant to be yours! We were meant to be one! Don't give up on me now! Finish what we've begun! I was mean to be yours! So when the high school gym goes boom with everyone inside- Pchw! Pchw! Pchw! In the rubble of their tomb We'll plant this note explaining why they died! JD AND STUDENTS (spoken): We, the students of Westerburg High Will die. Our burnt bodies may finally get through To you. Your society churns out slaves and blanks No thanks. Signed the Students of Westerburg High 'Goodbye.' JD (sung): We'll watch the smoke poor out the doors. Bring marshmallows, We'll make s'mores! We can smile and cuddle while the fire roars! I was meant to be yours! We were meant to be one! I can't make this alone! Finish what we've begun! You were meant to be mine! I am all that you need! You carved open my heart! Can't just leave me to bleed! Veronica, open the-open the door, please' Veronica, open the door. Veronica, can we not fight anymore' Please, can we not fight anymore' Veronica, sure, you're scared, I've been there. I can set you free! Veronica, don't make me come in there! I'm gonna count to three! (Spoken) One! Two! Fuck it! Oh my God! 'No! 'Veronica'! (Sung) Please don't leave me alone' You were all I could trust' I can't do this alone' JD AND STUDENTS: Still I will if I must!
I've never heard this audio version of the song before, so the smooth voice and different inflection combined with the art perfectly emphasizing every moment made it so much more unsettling and perfect for this animatic.
This makes me want to play Ray’s route so badly!! but I just downloaded the game after previously playing on my sisters phone and getting the “you didn’t play enough chat rooms” ending with Ray. I’m trying to save up hourglasses. I’ll get the Ray good end someday
Probably my favorite animatic ever, the attention to detail, the use of colors (even tho there was like three, it's when they were used that says I lot) the emotion we are shown, it's just *chefs kiss*
your art style is so great! .o. i think that's the best version of all the HxMM crossovers I've seen!! i like so much the bits where we can see Unknown looking through .o. amazing, 12/10, would watch while burning school and making s'mores
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING IVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! RAY SUITS JD'S ROLE SO MUCH OMG YOUR BRAIN IS HUUUUUUGE AND ALSO???? THE ART STYLE????? IMPECABLE??????
