Nether VS The End - Alex and Steve Life (Minecraft Animation) 

Ok now that it's out, this was easily my most ambitious animation yet and massive thanks to all who helped work on this. Feel free to leave a review on what ya like/think could be improved when it’s out. Omeleto’s animation releases next week which will conclude this batch to the series, so hope you’re all hyped for that as well.

The team really should be proud of themselves, releasing weekly animations now.Keep it up.

So great! Thank you for making such good videos

I love how Steve just switches Herobrine on to help the dragon.

This gives me massive Songs of War vibes. Edit: Wow, thanks for the positive feedback! Second Edit: Ok the Nether King/Commander is just a remastered Pythus. Third Edit: This golem is Igneous on steroids 😂

OK this was the best one so far imo, Steve & Alex finally got a new item to use in combat or overall, massive SoW nostalgia with the Enderknights and Netherans, callbacks to previous episodes like Dragon Egg and last week's Nether Titan and when we were just about to get a happy ending, BOOM! Steve captured and the crew shot by a cannonball, and then we get the awesome chase sequence and the end scene which really brought Infinity War/Endgame vibes, that's how good this episode was! Looking forward to the finale next week!

My main criticism is that Alex hasn't actually gotten any real spotlight moments since the Enderman Attack episode during A&S Life. She wasn't in the Iceologer, and was only in a flashback in the dragon egg arc. Her presence in the Warden episode didn't really change anything (she knocked a potion off a ledge but nothing else she did other than grabbing the moss had an effect on the video). She was sorta a side character in the Nether War video, it wasn't really a problem in Nether War it's just the videos around it. Got her ass kicked the moment she started fighting in returns, and spent most of Rise of the Pillagers out of commission from injuries. She hasn't really gotten to do anything integral to the plot in a while, is all I'm saying

Wow, I'm speechless. The team really puts effort into this, and its really worth it, this channel is legendary. You guys make our days so much better! These movies are amazing, the animation, the movements, the face expressions are so well detailed! And the storyline, the music, the locations, the places are so well built... All of my appreciation are yours guys.

So epic, Literally blew my mind, Huge props to Mont and all the other animators for creating this, It must've taken a lot of time to complete this :O

Cant wait to see Natharans and enderknights in action 🔥🔥🔥

These “Alex and Steve adventures” are feeling season three vibes~ Animation life was season one, Alex and Steve life was season two, Alex and Steve adventures is season three~~

I recognized her as the dragon girl *right* before it was revealed. so glad there are so many episodes nearing the end of the last series to call back to and work off of.

"The Ender Knights returned during these dark times, long having been guardians of the Overworld."

I’m so damn excited for this! Those nether looking knights and the purple one reminds me of songs of war. The enderknights battling against the nether, this is gonna be epic!

エンドとネザーの対立とかいう天才みたいなストーリー考えれるのほんと尊敬する

5:55 Did Flynn The Enderdragon Became Godzilla Charging Atomic Breathe? (I Got Lone's Enderdragon Name In The Description)

While I had troubles with the previous animation, this one seems like it won't go wrong. Fight scenes are going to be extremely critical and the quality that is shown in the thumbnail should bleed into the animation to some extent. Edit (12/10/22): In comparison to the last one, this animation is relatively good. I'd say it takes that traditional feel. The emotions are rarely overexaggerated and they feel real. Excellent job on that. I still find it interesting that the Baroness saved Steve in the previous animation yet takes him back. This might have been a result of needing to capture him while also needing him to stay alive. Either way, the animation is back to where it used to be, which is awesome. Second Edit (12/11/22): The visuals were the best part, I loved the designs from Songs of War, and it is one of my favorite YT series videos of all time. You managed to give me nostalgia and I appreciate it. Also, good work taking the time to look back on your comments to improve. That move is incredibly smart and this team is truly amazing because of it.

6:57. Okay, I can't help it, but it seems like Steve is slowly starting to rely more and more on the Herobrine side of his powers, and I think that will eventually come back to bite him at some point in the future. Maybe I'm wrong and I'm just reading too much into it, but that's what the animation appears to be saying.

its good to see old songs of war maps being re-used instead of discarded

The team should really be proud of themselves, releasing animations weekly. they are doing a lot of what they call their strengths. Please continue to make more videos in the near future

6:00 it's Godzilla

7:07 this would be a great wallpaper for my phone ngl

Guy this is so cool just like when Steve brings out a bit of herobrine

7:45 this is my favorite guard in this animation

Really happy to help out on this animation! Can't wait for the Great Rescue 😁

Okay let me start, this has got to be one of BPS' best animations by far. Mont and the others did an amazing job on the animation, it was so fluid and smooth, certain parts with perspective and camera following them in some scenes was so pleasing to look at! Oh and expressions were absolutely amazing! I love how in the story it showed them training in the end, it made more sense instead of them rushing in and knowing everything about fighting already. This animation, Nether War, and Herobrine returns, have been my favorite animations ever posted on this channel. And in a way this episode brought me back to my childhood, for one animation life and another I grew up with was Minecraft Story Mode! So this brought me so much joy when watching it, keep on the great work BPS, Everyone in the team is awesome!

FANtastico!! CHIA tambien hace animaciones!!! 😂👍

Imagine if Steve becomes herobrine and solos🔥🛐

the fact that steve has learnt to control his inner herobrine is indeed quite impressive.

Absolutely loved it. This was the best animation in this series by far. Can’t wait to see what’s next because of the agonising cliffhanger. I have no idea how you do this story so good. Especially with starfall.

i need an alex and steve love story PLEASE

It’s my head cannon that this is something that happened before the events of SoW. Steve goes full Herobrine after losing Alex. Lone and the blue-ish ended knight are something like Abbigail’s parents or descendants. And maybe the Ardoni are still in hiding not wanting to reveal the power of Songs to the world

8:04 OMG steve x alex moment uwu

7:38 Yo, it's Abbigail in her Enderknight armor from SoW! I'm really liking this SoW nostalgia BPS is suddenly giving, I doubt they are gonna make S2 and 3 now that the script is already out there but still appreciate these animations where you guys use concepts from SoW, it's great!

7:20 I love how there is so much hate in the dragon’s eyes

رائع جداً انا احب هذه القناه روعة جدا Iam Egyptian

This episode in particular gave me strong Songs of War vibes. Specifically, the Ender Knights in general and the Nether forces taking over the End. I miss this legend...

Plot twist after plot twist in this series, I'm loving it! I also love how Steve is using his "corrupted" side to his advantage now instead of seeing it as a setback. He's come a long way!

I nearly died of joy at 8:03. The character development, even though there's no words and the plot is slightly confusing, is incredible. Keep up the good work!!

Songs of war nether and the end>>>>>>>

Excellent work on this animation Mont! I must say you absolutely nail the atmosphere of the End; the mist, the lighting, even the end details like the ender bees and the weapons were awesome). It's great to see assets used from other animations like SOW in this animation, they look great and helps to freshen up A+S series up. Love seeing the attention to detail in the other elements in the animation (the Wither for example)! Really keen to see the conclusion to the A+S Adventures!

I love how they're steadily tying in characters from past videos like Eric and Lone. Also love how they added the detail of the Ender Dragon shooting lightning and having glowing scales. For those who don't remember, when he was little he saved the village from burning up by absorbing lightning blasts. Awsome video! Also I loved the movement in Alex's wings as she flew overhead, and the lighting of the end. And I could go on and on 😁

By looking at the thumbnail, it’s gonna look good!

Наш девиз четыре слова: ДАВАЙ ПРОДУ НАГЛОМУ НАРОДУ!!! Это же шикарно, давай ещё!😍

SoW Enderknights and Netharans back in BPS pog. 5:30 finally that Abbigail vs Vulcannus we've been wanting

The thumbnail looks incredible! This series got kicked off to a great start! Can't wait to see what happens!

Good to see you guys bring back the amazing quality of the first nether war animation and fight scenes which compliment each other greatly. Seeing the characters fight and counter, block stuff like that is amazing it adds some realism sort of thing to it. Keep it this way if u guys can it's pretty hard to upload every week so I don't think anyone would complain if ur took your time to absolutely be proud of the work you'll show to all the people with great expectations. My one problem is that in the training part where everyone shows off and trains their unique style and abilities Steve and ender dragon both has lightning. It'd have been very cool to just give the dragon it's classic purple fire/fire ball honestly it would look cooler than lightning since the graphics and again animation is a killer like all the previous GOOD ones. Everything accounted the episode was extraordinary.

the best creator of animations of minecraft in the world

I'm excited for the final episode, I'm very happy to know that the animators are collaborating on this big project 💐💐

7:20 Godzilla reference?

3:51 You know how dangerous that is?

Today is The Great Rescue! Edit: Huh I guess It didn’t come out yet, Aw man, Hopefully Tomorrow 😢

Ok.........THIS ANIMATION WAS AMAZING!!!!! Also, if only shulkers were actually that useful 3:09 😂 I absolutely love the holograms and the new ender people designs. To all of the storyline/plot developers, you are all phenomenal at your job! I'm truly enjoying each video that comes out and getting to watch Steve and Alex experience new things is always a fun ride. I'm happy that Steve is accepting his abilities and is still loved by those around him. Herobrine is a great villain, but this twist with him being a type of evil side to Steve is really cool to see. I've never seen it played out like this, so I look forward to seeing where this goes in future videos. He's worked hard to keep that side in check and I feel that he's mastered that side to him. Well done and thank you to the whole team for your collective work!!!

3:19 We can see true lore here. There are twoo factions that are fighting for ages and the middle world with warden under. Also we see third faction. They are like alpha legion. Theyre existence is questioned. They could be also heaven world for the third faction.

9:26 житель такой Эндер дракон в обычном мире?А за ним летит кто-то... Все хватит с меня таких прогулок)

Ok now the Ender Dragon have Godzilla and King Ghidorah power combined, and also cosplayed as Godzilla

I think this will be awesome like all your animations! I enjoy and love every animation which you post,I always support your channel,you are a little bit underrated, this channel need to have MORE subscribers. If someone asked me which is the best animation channel I will gladly say is Black plasma studios. You will always have me as a fan,whatever animations you will post! Good Lucky and all the best everyone!

8:30 aaaaaaannnd scoop~

5:40 Sir Stevious the devious

2:12 How could the dragon cross through that very small portal? Also, you need ender pearls (or trapdoors) for crossing it. 9:17: Don't they take damage spamming the pearls? Well this is an improvement compared to the previous animation. There're hardly weird details, the fights are dynamic and powerful. The Ender Training with tangible holograms is interesting and Steve using the Herobrine's power with his sword is amazing. It looks like only in this dimension he can use it. In previous animations he didn't use it, he didn't even seem to understand the power of that sword. but it's ok. And the epicity returns in the video and the fights, you can feel it. It doesn't make you scream of emotion but there it is, and that is good. The characters win the final battle with a bit of strategy and the power of Steve, and the Ender Swords are epic for me. You could teleport yourself only thinking where you want to go in real time, for example giving a hit in the chest and immediately later, a hit on the back. The animations are better although the expressions and gestures in the first part, with the ''dragon tamer'' worried for his dragon, are too much ambiguous for me. I was surprised by the Fallen Angels taking Steve. I was wondering where they were. Also I thought Alex got a serious damage when she was hit trying to save Steve and she fall to the ground. But it was just a hit. No blood. No hurt. Not even a hole in her clothes. I only hope the elytras don't break and leave her in free fall xd. When the Titan emerged from the earth, apart of this is a new opportunity for using it and create a true threat with him, I felt it like it was smaller than the previous time. I'm not sure if this is true but well, the Titan is back again and now it's time of a true battle against it. Don't waste it plz. Conclusion: It's better than the last animation, but I can't avoid feel like the quality still being a bit lower than the usual one. It's... standart. But don't stop for it. Continue, you can recover yourself and get your skills better!!

That was incredible! The work that went into the camera angles really paid off! I loved seeing Alex fly around and get the bird's eye view of it all. And just the dynamic camera work around the combat scenes really looked good, it was proper fun to watch! Their expressions were also on point. No one ever looked comical or goofy, just expressive enough to know exactly what they were thinking. I mean even the wither's face was well done lol. Nice pacing and music choice, you really outdid yourselves this time Mont and crew!

Excellent work on this animation Mont! I must say you absolutely nail the atmosphere of the End; the mist, the lighting, even the end details like the ender bees and the weapons were awesome).and you did a toothless on us with the ender dragon nice

I just realize... If the Nether Titan escape... That mean Eric also escape from the nether,right?

Can’t wait to see what they do with the story line and Steve returning to his roots as Herobrine.

Me: Sees Herobrine/Steve use lightning-based powers at 4:11 Also me: *vietnam war style flashbacks of the 2015 Battle of TNSurvivalCraft intensify* edit: the final battle over the fate of Herobrine draws near... oh god hopefully the aetherborn will lose this one... I don't think I want to see the events of 7.5 years ago unfold once more...

اعجبني جدا جدا 👍🌟🥰

This has a better plot than most movies on Netflix or Hulu

NGL, this is one of the best animations I've seen from BPS so far. Everyone is starting to get real, defined, talents, and are finally using them properly. Can't wait for the finale, and keep it coming!

Is it just me or did anyone else think that, when the Ender Dragon I guess charged up, it looked like Toothless’s alpha charge from HTTYD or Godzilla’s charge? Loving this animation series! Once again Black Plasma Studios, you have outdone your selves!

10:00 In this scene I remembered a theory that says that the dimensions are divided into beds, the nether being the lower bed due to the fact that there is bedrock on the roof of the nether, the end being the upper layer

There was a time when the enderknights ruled the land and their dragons soared the sky's. The Nether clashes in battles of unimaginable force. The undead were a threat to be feared and....even the ardoni clans wielded great songs of power. That time is over. *I believe that time is coming again.*

6:01 godzilla kkkkkkkkkkk good good

I'm glad the molten titan got a second chance at a great introduction, this definitely made it feel like it's more of a problem to the characters at the time, love that! I have a few questions, like when did the Shepard girl make an alliance with the ender warriors? What does the Nether stand to gain by taking that single fortress in the End? Why does the traveling group decide to forget that they're being chased? And when did Steve learn to control the power of Herobrine? I feel like the Herobrine powers need more of an explanation, because up until this point Steve hasn't even made attempts at controlling it, settling on just wielding the sword as a sword instead of a power source, so I'm not sure what's happening there. Having the ender dragon channel lightning was an interesting idea, it feels like they relied on it to win a bit too much, but it looked great, worked well with the story and the animation was overall amazing, great job!

This animation is super cool. Maybe you should try an animation where a night fury goes through the end portal end meets the Ender dragon. And they team up to protect the end from outside invaders.

5:56 ender dragon spike are blue just Godzilla and toothless

With Steve starting to use lightning I’m getting a feeling hero brine is slowly corrupting him

Dragon: haha lightning go brr Steve: I am now Herobrine. I can control my shapeshifting. Shepherd: I am an Enderknight, dragon rider and able to teleport Alex: *airplane mode on*

The training sequence music gave me memories of the UHC Champions animation

I saw that prophecy looking thing and it got me thinking, it would be interesting if a character learned how to tame and befriend wardens...or at least a warden (id imagine it would be using bottles of enchanting since sculk feeds off exp and wardens r made of sculk)...and yes, using wardens as bodyguards is possible in vanilla since i was the first person to set up a system that would release a warden "guard" to defend my city. (At least the first person in the official update) Granted, im not the only one to capture a warden, but i am the first person to legit put it to work 😂(not to mention someone legit tamed an ender dragon, something nearly every player has been wanting for years 😂 so as far as im concerned, anything can be tamed in the series)

Ain’t no one gonna talk about herobrine returning in Steve

being honest here, I do believe that a series like this would benefit GREATLY from having voice actors. It is something that can get expensive, but the outcome would be worth it.

The dragon is very luxurious 🔥🔥🔥

Loved it anyone else see the kaiju references (Godzilla)

This was easily one of the best Minecraft animations yet! The music that was in the popular battle royale animation, gave me chills, made me realise how far this truly is ♥️

The worst part of this animation is that it ends, top notch! Waiting anxiously for the other party

Kikishka top LEGENDS Block Plasma Studios !!!!!

Buen trabajo con las animaciones 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

The amount of chills I got while watching this... absolUTEly stunning. It was put together so well, there's nothing I could even begin to critique on. 10/10! Can't wait for next weekend!

The best idea i loved is that Steve who was accepting his fate as the Herobrine itself and trying to studying his power in order to help others in battle. Also the newly flying Alex with elytra instead of Trident has another power on it, not even yet mentioning the Ender-Electro Dragon. I swear this was the greatest Alex and Steve life series by far.

The Godzilla and Ghidorah references were heattttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aw this makes me sad. The end castle here is the one that was supposed to be used in Songs of War... :l but they never got that far. Ya'know if four years later they decided to start up Steve and Alex again... maybe...

I personally really feel as if they took the songs of war script and changed the skins, weapons and events. from a simple life- to a warrior fighting in the nether, to fighting in the end. thats the exact script of songs of war. eventually- steve and alex get together, finish the fights and live a happily ever after. the "songs" could be the swords/sword steve found / alex's trident- and there was also things like dragons, withers, ender knights, nether knights, and magic. like i said- they somewhat altered SOW script into steve and alex adventures. great job anyways! although- it would be amazing if Songs Of War would be back into plans.

The "take back the end" reminds me of "take back the night"

Wow this animation was amazing, literally this one of the best animation.. if there will be someday story or short movie with End Knights.. it will be amazing. Thank you boys for relasing and im so exited for continue. :) Keep making stuff like this, you are really an artist.

Masterpiece✨

When I saw the thumbnail, my first reaction was that it was a songs of war crossover… it baffles me how much the animations have improved since the series was cancelled, and i’m sure you guys would get tons of support if you brought it back, even at a much slower rate

Story idea I think is cool: Steve and Herobrine are basically one so it's like green goblin or something and he tries to battle the Herobrine inside of him and throughout these adventures he sometimes goes out of control but at one point finally becomes one with Herobrine becoming really powerful. After all that, alot of enemies are really aware about when Herobrine was still around and they eventually know about Steve harnessing Herobrine(?). This puts him and his buddies on the run and I don't know where to go from there based on the animations I've seen so far. Other than that, animation here is great compared to the last one and I like how characters from past animations are incorporated here. Kudos to you guys.

I like that at least a few of songs of war stuff gets back in these days, I appreciate that

My idol stive and Alex and Herobrine 😎

3:43 I like this scene because Alex can finally control Herobrine like changing his eyes to white....BPS is the best ever Minecraft animation in this world..Keep it up Black Plasma Studios..
