Push Back the Hands - Lisa The Hopeful (Beltboy Run) 

I like how Benny’s sunglasses acted as his eyeballs for expressions And when we finally saw his eyes for real it was because he had no reason to keep up his cool guy stick anymore

Beltboy's ending is the best and yet the sadest of them all

My dilemma is that I want to pause constantly to look over each frame, but this song is so good and it fits so well. Also yellow-py don’t miss fr fr

The poses are so dynamic, especially 0:20 where Dixon is winding up and about to slam them all horizonally across the face in one swing, haha. I love these 3 idiots. First playing it after my first fangame, pointless, it was a hit in the face of what lisa was all about.

When Benny stumbles outside the truck he has blood from his mouth... It's not his...

i like how benny got blood in his mouth after his ecounter with craig (spoilers from hopeful) he bites craig to death

Beltboy... you are to good for this universe... you deserve the world and everything because you are my friend

This is by far my favorite Lisa fangame. The fact its free is boardline a crime. The passion and the writing is fantastic.

"Howdy doo dee." most scariest words known to man of Olathe

Also I love the recurring theme of your LISA animatics having a They Might Be Giants song.

i desperately need a lisa the pointless animatic in your style i love all of your animatics and lisa the pointless (specifically the infinity unfolds expansion mod) is my favorite rpg and one of my favorite games ever i would love to see what what song you chose but im 99% sure id be hopeless bleak despair by they might be giants

Now all we need is an animatic of Lisa the Pointless set to “I Can’t Remember the Dream” to complete the quadrilogy

Funnily enough, seeing how Benny’s crush was depicted in this helped me realize that I was in a toxic relationship with my significant other myself. So thanks for the coincidental help!

Every single detail just gives me so much joy, Also seeing the dumbass smasher visualised is pretty awesome

It's so refreshing to see one of these fan videos finish the whole song, and one of such high quality nonetheless! Very good!

1:00 She do be smug tho

I’m seriously blown away at time by the expressiveness of many of these scenes. They add a lot more depth to the trio of troublemakers and the perverts they come across.

It's so sad. This ending is the best morally and from a storytelling standpoint but it took the most amount of pain to get there. Also I LOVE your Lisa videos

I’ve only ever seen Nitro Rad’s review of this game, so I didn’t realize how tragic it actually was. God I barely even know these guys but my heart is still aching for them!

I’m excited for the influx of new people the Lisa remastered will bring in.

Your animatics are always amazing! It filled me with a certain feeling to hear the familiar they might be giants voice come in

Yellow Pyro is single handly rising my interest in They Might be Giants

im still obsessed with this 💔

The return of LISA animatics with my all time favorite TMBG song! Perfect!

Grandma wake up Yellow-Py dropped a new animatic

You have gotten extremely good at conveying deep emotions in a short time.

I've played through this game twice, but always stopped at the very end because I couldn't beat the last few fights. It's incredible to see this animation and learn the end of the story this way. I'm gonna cry now

Benny, Liam, and Clyde has gone through the hell and back, I feel bad for all of them. Hell even Rodriguez in his route, godspeed you magnificent bastards.

Man. They might be Giants songs paired with the Lisa series always fucking slaps!

i can't even begin to express just how enamored i am by this animatic / rough animation. i LOVE LOVE LOVE this so much and your portrayal of them, and the art is lovely (haha) !!! thank you so much for sharing this it made me realize how much i missed these little 3

of ALL the things to get after your amazing disco elysium animatic its an animatic for my favourite LISA fangame with my favourite tmbg song?? i love just how well this shows the roadtrip style one thing after another nature of the story, and GOD the impact of the heart's invasion of the sports stadium, lank's death, its all so perfect, even the way the girl from beltboy's past is always looking directly in the camera is so offputting... thank you for this!!!

I remember back when the Joyful animatic came out that i suggested you to play Hopeful, assuring you that you were gonna like it... Whether it was because of my suggestion or not, i'm glad you DID played and hopefully (ha ha) liked it!

I'm glad you still make LISA-based animation videos, they are so charming and lovely. This is why I love your vision on its franchise. I wish the actual games had this kind of atmosphere lmao. So, keep up the good work as your vids are amazing

I'm obsessed with this...

Hopeful is my favorite Lisa fangame and I'm so glad you did this...This is amazing, man

Man...remembering this hit me hard...

sobbing crying throwing up yet again

i love this so muchhhh your lisa animatics are my life thank you

My mind is still blows away from this amazing video. Keep up amazing.

I kept on being recommended your animations for ages and every time I was like ‘oh that was enjoyable/impressive’ I only recently put together every single one was made by you. I love all of the stuff you make and I’m subscribed so ill see whatever you do next ehehhe

Super under-appreciated, but this animation made my day so thank you

i paused so much just to see evrything, it's beautiful and fit so much with the song pal'. thank you, a lot.

absolutely thrilled to see you making lisa stuff again

Love it man, i really love it, amazing as always

Fantastic as always

You've done a fantastic job. I really enjoyed the game, so it's great to see other people who enjoyed the game as much as I did.

I love your lisa animations they mean so much to me!

Why does this not have more views, it seriously is so good!

OH MY GOD THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL I AM IN TEARS i literally waited so long for this and i have to say that you made an AMAZING work on this one. i am very happy that you actually finished it and OOOH MY GOD THIS IS SO GOOD I CANT PUT IT INTO WORDS- ahem, okay so. i really really liked how much you upgraded your artstyle and how MANY frames are here??? i especially liked the way you drew CF in the flashback moments and the cyclops death scene too. literally grips my heart by the amount of details and emotions here. i am very glad you enjoyed this fangame so much since in my opinion it`s actually one of the best ones and had make me have an insane brainrot over it. now if you please i will go and rewatch this a hundred times analyzing every single frame of this.

Oddly enough when you published this I was right in the middle of playing lisa for the first time and saved this to watch until I played the main games and hopeful lol. Took longer than intended because I played painful and joyful like 3 times each w that new definitive content too lol. But so happy I could watch this after finishing hopeful last night... didn't expect to get so many feelings about it

Fantastic work, as always.

Once again your taste in music is so beautiful

Thanks for more Lisa heartache! Yep, Hopeful I think is one of the most faithful Lisa fangames, just in tone and mechanics. Plus its a good, if heartwrenching, time. Unless you are doing the rodriguez route.

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you.

MAN, YOUR ANIMATICS REALLY UP THE ANTE WITH CAMERAWORK AND STYLE!!! LOVE IT!

THAT IS AMAZING I LOVE UR ANIMATICS SO MUCH >//////

oh man. i've been imagining this song as a great choice for a Painful animatic for years (thanks in no small part to your other LISA/TMBG animatics) but using it for Hopeful is huge brained as well... great stuff here. gets me excited for Hopeless, whenever that comes out.

Amazing stuff. Please make more!

A simply fantastic retelling of one of the strongest fangames yet made from this wonderful series. I especially love how you pushed the expressions to some great extremes, yet still captured the humanity each of the characters have. Keep up the great work, and have a lovely day.

I'm so glad that your'e still make works about this game. Your animations are some of the best in the comunity, and you introduced me to They might be Giants. Thank you.

you absolutely never fail to amaze, this is so so good!!!

Let me say, yellow-py, this is incredible. I've been watching you since "have you seen my sister evelyn" and this is my favorite thing LISA related... ever.

cool that you came back

not gonna lie, I cry a bit at the end.

This is so good omllll

THIS IS SO GOOD thank you as always, it's really nice to see Lisa contenr from you again and fangame no less!

Thanks for the excellent animation of this game I so awesome

This was truly breathtaking!!

this is amazing! its crazy how much your style has improved since the Painful and Joyful storyboards. Pointless next maybe???

YOUR CHANNEL HAS THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS LISA ANIMATICS, TWO OF SOME OF MY FAVORITE THINGS?!?!?!?!?!???!

Year of the Lisa baby!!!

yupeee best artist came back

I know my boys werent the best people but goddamn it still makes me sad, also insanely good video wow

Sorry if you get this question a lot (considering how you have made LISA content in the past) but have you ever played the fangame LISA: The Pointless? It's just such a wonderful, atmospheric game that matches (Or even surpasses!) the source material.

WOW DUDE, IM ONLY RECENTLY PASSED IT, YOU ARE GOD

thank you for the hopeful content, such a hidden gem

Wow, now I get to experience the heartbreaking tragedy of Hopeful once again, now with enhanced expressions! My soul aches!

This is fantastic

Another great vid, much like your others. Happy to see new LISA content, and yours have always been a particular favorite of mine. I hope you're doing well, and keep making stuff like this about things you enjoy.

Man this was amazing, I mean it still hurt watching it but damn. So this does mean we're gonna see a lanks, cyclops and Rodriguez route animatic? Of course if you can and have the time I mean. You don't see much Lisa the hopefull animatic or animation but this one amazing.

wonderful

good work bro

imagine the hole series like that taht is about those guys before the game happened or something

Also significantly well timed for the definitive edition release

OMGGG I MISSED THESE ANIMATICS

Awesome work with this! I’m glad people are still making these your art it amazing!

I always liked Hopeful quite a bit. Reggie the GOAT!!!

Great animation, would love a comic book in this universe.

I was *not* expecting a Hopeful post in the hype, I'm glad to see you have made this. I especially appreciate the sportsball quiz being included.

**dramatically grasps at my heart**

You always seem to have to greatest taste in video games and fangames

This is my second favorite run but i love the homies run more personally

So beautiful ❤️

Hopeful is amazing, my favorite fangame.

Lovely

This is insane to finally see come out, I remember watching the Don't let's start animatic years ago and this is just insane to see how far you've come. The trio looks phenominal and they are super expressive, You managed to capture the story and just vibe of hopeful very well. Also glad to see you're hyped about definitive edition as well, it's going to be a pain waiting these next 2 days but I'm just so excited. Thank yo for making this animatic, and i'm curious if maybe you'll make a cyclops, lanks, and rodrigues animatics. (no pressure obviously)

AUGHHHH- wow this hurts so much

Love from a Vaush and UrickSaladBar fan!

If you haven't already, the other fangames you should try are Pointless, Unbreakable, and Timless (all preceded by "Lisa The") they're all free on game jolt! I recommend trying pointless first, then timeless, then unbreakable.

i just finished the game today holy crap
