If anyone doesn’t understand, basically Onion Skinning is something in animation that shows the previous or upcoming frames drawn, this is used to help animators keep the frames consistent and keep them at the correct speed.
The fact that the onion frames do actions before the actual Yellow does them implies that the stickmen’s entire existence is predetermined and they have no free will.
Honestly can't believe Alan added this even after Animation VS Physics, but, this is a thing now. If they ever branch into external reality, I won't be surprised if it completely turns everything sci-fi while it endows everything with animation properties.
If yellow being hit was predetermined, that means that alan moving the mouse to hit them is also predetermined. Everything happening in the whole universe is predetermined in that sense. That means that if victim was to obtain the onion power, he would be able to see what will exactly happen not only in the stickman universe, but also the animation universe and real life universe too via prediction of animator interactions as seen here with alan hitting yellow was predicted and happened
This is what I love about the Alan Becker-verse, its setting inside a computer and cast of animated stick figures gives it endless possibilities for both storylines and quick gags like this
one thing I love is at the end, Alan animates yellow reacting to himself reacting to, well, nothing. The future determined the present because yellow gained information from the future about gaining information from the future. It's little details like this that make me love these animations.
...This is Requiem. What you see is real. Yes, you see the actions created by your ability, but you will never reach the moment when they become real. No matter what ability the person standing in front of me has, he will not be able to reach that moment. Such is the power of Gold Experience Requiem.
I think by virtue of Yellow getting hit by the wrecking ball after seeing his future frames get sent flying is proof that he will reach that future. Also, I feel like that’s a Jojo reference, but I never watched the show past the two zombie vampire gladiators in the first season.
But! King Crimson has already! …seen through it. Your movements in the future. The trajectory of your movements in the future. With King Crimson’s ability, this world’s time disappears, and no one remembers the movements they made within this segment of time.
@@eclipse4118that’s actually genius because imagine infusing the onion skinning tool into red yellow blue and green, that’ll make them defeat the mercenaries
the fact that i can hear the noises in certain directions when they come from that direction is crazy, never knew you could put directional audio into an animation
Epitaph, allows the user to view 10 seconds into the future as if watching a movie clip. Although it shows reactions, it doesn't tell the user what the initial action was.
Okay, I'll make all my analogies: • The cannonball there looks like the cannonball they put on TCO's feet. • The one in Blue's hand is similar to the one in Victim's hand at 48 seconds into AVA episode 1. • The weapons Red and TSC have are similar to the weapons in Victim's clones. • The gun in Green's hand is very similar to the gun in the 50th second of the 2nd episode of AVA. • The proliferation and discoloration of Yellow reminds me of Victim. • Blue and Green swinging above reminded me of the 40th second of AVA episode 1. • And the way Yellow fly off at the end reminds me of TCO's "POW" fly off (Also Happy Birthday)
This is... Requiem. What you're seeing is indeed the truth. You are seeing the movements created by your abilities, but you will NEVER arrive at the truth that's going to happen. None who stand before me shall ever get there, regardless of their abilities. This is the power of Gold Experience Requiem!
this was actually be insanely useful because then u can see what would happen to u like 5 seconds before the thing would actually happen helping u to prevent it
i dont know how people animate so smooth, when i try animation even with carefull prep time my drawing still just look like a kinder garden kids drawing cause it looked a static line on a broken tv
I love the way that blue stood up😂😂😂 also happy birthday Alan!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉 Edit:(Wow thank you for the likes I guess?) Edit: (i forgot to comment this😅) CAN I STOP THINKING THE TITLE IS ONION RINGS
Keep it up man! I’m a beginning skateboarder as well and it’s definitely very difficult (some days I don’t even practice bc I don’t have the motivation). But it’s important not to give up after a fall. I’ve had two wipeouts so far on my driveway just from putting my back foot on my board in the wrong place after pushing. Don’t let failure hold you back
“This is... Requiem. What you're seeing is indeed the truth. You are seeing the movements created by your abilities, but you will NEVER arrive at the truth that's going to happen.

This is the power of Gold Experience Requiem!“ - A famous Onion Skin Connoisseur By considering the fact that Yellow arrived at the truth, we can determine that Yellow (and all Alan Becker characters by proxy) are therefore some of the most busted characters in fiction. But the question still remains: Can he beat Goku?
