SKAZKA ((16+ read the warning)) 

I love the way you draw children with such large eyes giving them a wide-eyed innocent look, makes it all the more heart breaking

Yess more of the pieces to the puzzle of this story, but also giving us more questions. Anyways, I love being early to their masterpieces. This felt a bit different, more story orientated like not an animation meme or the usual stuff. To add, I love how they illustrate the eyelashes.

This video really glutched my heart from the inside as someone who has gone through sexual abuse as a child. This heartbreakingly haunting, artistic masterpiece depicts pretty accurately what these kind of cult ritual abuses do to your soul and psyche. Love the high level symbolism here.

Saw this 6 days after it came out. Was too afraid to click on it because I was under 16 by a couple years. Finally gathered the courage and realized, "Oh. This is right up my alley." I'll never know what I was so scared of. Edit: If I ever gather enough money, I'm totally funding an animation studio to turn this into a show. Twisted protagonists are always fun.

we need an anime like this it's so cool and the story too

I love how dark it is but instead most people just pay attention to how good the art is lol-

"I take a deep breath so that I don't breathe anymore, everything that hurts I forget that I'm going to get hurt again..." - The first lines of this song have always attracted me very much. I love this song and have sung it many times. Yes, I'm Russian, by the way.

Анимация просто потрясающая. Очень приятно видеть как люди создают подобные приятные глазу произведения!

English youtuber: said one russian word Russian people in comments: ВЫ НЕ ЗВАЛИ, А МЫ ПРИШЛИ

the fact that the dead “family” members where behind them and left as how they got killed is just such a perfect touch. Love the art as well! at this point i switched it to them, literally y’all burning my brain with the “its a girl” “its a boy” thing 💀

Ну вообще приятно видеть как иностранцы делают такие красивые анимации, ролики по наши русские песни))

у меня аж мурашки, как это круто нарисовано. автор, вы шикарны

I just noticed a detail. When Clare opens the book and she has a pink chest wound. I know pink means Roz but the wound is right where Roz's scar is. Just wanted to mention that.

I love how after the pain fades away she just says “oh. That’s fine, back to bed!”

I always love the whole idea of "heaven is corrupt" and the whole story with ezequiel and clare just breaks my heart, but at the same time roz is... spectacular.

CAN PEOPLE GIVE THIS PERSON SOME REAL ATTENTION!!!??? The passage you left at the end didn't make the person reading imagine too much about the time of this. I have experience, ANIMATING ONE MOVE WITHOUT COLOR IS ALREADY SO HARD AND SO TIMEWASTFUL. He animated the background and every detail in this so beautifully. With already the amount of views in this is already so underrated. You got AWSOME Talent, please keep it up🎉🎉🎉

Мне очень нравится, когда зарубежные художники и аниматоры делают видео под Русские песни и понимают о чём сама песня. Это просто браво!

Я: Ищу зарубежные анимации Англоязычные анимации: а сейчас мы будем петь на русском!

3 years later, and this still doesn't disappoint to amaze me

Возможно с этого кадра 0:12 автор хотел показать сексуальное насилие, как ребенок на него реагирует, как ощущает себя и как мир сходит с ума вокруг него. В последствии его сознание создаёт "демона" который не знает пощады и прячется в его голове, постепенно, как чума или рак, распространяется по телу, заставляя начальную личность запереться и передать бразды управления ему. И после этого ребенок замыкается в себе, становится другим, становится безразличным и когда насилие возвращается снова, он запирается в своем подсознании, и ждёт когда это закончится. Ребенок потерян. Ребенок напуган. Ребенок стыдится. Ребенку больно. Ребенок ненавидит. Есть такая фраза из фильма "Silent Hill": Когда тебя так долго мучают, страх и боль становятся ненавистью, а ненависть - меняет мир. Лично для меня это очень больная тема, сама не раз подвергалась подобному от близкого человека и не получала должной поддержки, надеюсь смысл данной анимации стал вам хоть более понятен.

I would kill for a tv series or movie in this style. Your art is incredibly beautiful and singular

Have you considered creating a kickstarter to turn this into a series? This is WAY better than a lot of anime available! I would watch the heck out of this show!

We seriously need more videos on this! Your art is incredible, and so is your story!

До мурашек, чудесная анимация

Хазбклазащьв, всегда хотел увидеть анимацию англоязычного автора под русскую песню, получилось очень круто

Okay here is a theory of the whole story, these poor children (I don’t know their names I’m so sorry) are stuck at this temple with this priest, he acts nice and stuff and tells them not to cross to the other side cause you’ll turn evil, but then when the girl got older he r@ped her and abused her, she acts like nothings wrong in front of the little boy but there definitely is, in "her" she can’t take it anymore and crosses the bars to the other side, the character Roz takes her and her eyes turn pink and I think that’s Roz's goal, cause in "cradles" Roz collected all of those peoples eyes and in the end of the video you could see that all of their eyes turned pink, so that could either mean their under Roz's control or that they turned evil, (Roz gets stronger when he collects their eyes or puts them under control) in the cradles video it also shows the girl, who seems to be suffering with Roz too, so idk if she made the right decision or not, anyway after she left the boy started getting r@ped and abused (as it shows in "pick a flower") but then in "her" it shows an Angel with glasses that has blood splattered on their hands, it shows in a clip in another video of the boy wearing those glasses so that means the boy turned into that Angel, I think that the blood was the preist's and it was revenge for all the r@ping, abusing, etc. I really hope this series thing continues cause I really like it!! Also not all these little theories were mine, I got inspiration from other comments, too. If you think that there’s more to add to this story or one of my theories are wrong, then let me know! I would love to hear from you guys! :) Edit: now looking at this video I think she at first was a nice little Angel, but when she found this book it turned her into a demon which forced her to leave.

Я восхищаюсь. Это прекрасная работа, уважаемый автор. Спасибо вам большое за такой труд.

I've gotta thank YOU a million times over, cause this video is what introduced me to Ic3peak in the first place, I would have never discovered their music if it wasn't for you! Also, I LOVE the animation-It's frickin' awesome! Keep it up, you're doing amazing!!^^

удивительно, но я вздрогнула от клипа. хоть он и не знает русский , но с не точным переводом он смог понять смысл. приятно видеть как человек снимает под песню на твоем родном языке

Безумно крутая анимация...

This is REALLY good holy shit. The animation is so smooth and with the complex art style idk how you made it so consistent. Wonderful job

I have no words. This is incredible. The animation is so smooth and incredibly well done, each shot looks beautiful.. I'm in awe.

Here’s my interpretation of the storyline so far: Clare and Ezequiel (I hope I spelled that right) stay with the priest, where they are abused. The priest may be trying to make them impure of make them “perfect.” In this video, it shows that Ruv has corrupted Clare and I *think* that at 1:13 it shows the family that Ruv attacked in the cradles meme. In the pick a flower meme you also see Ezequiel staring at Clare (I think) standing in front of Ruv’s smile, it may be possible that he saw the scene at 1:38 or when Clare possibly returned to the book and he witnessed it. He also seems to witness the priest and Clare at 0:24. In pick a flower, Ezequiel is given a flower by Clare and it seems as though they used to be close. 0:21 and 0:31 show that Clare seems distant and cold. (Maybe after she found the book or because the priest did something?) Pick a flower also shows Ezequiel behind bars like Clare was at 0:34. I believe it symbolizes them being trapped with the priest or something similar. I do not think that Ruv would corrupt Clare without a reason, so she must be useful in some way. The cross most likely has some significance, but I have yet to figure it out. Moving on, the cradles meme shows Ruv taking the eyes of the family. I think that their souls are their “sun.” He’s taking their eyes to collect their suns/souls. Ruv and the priest have some sort of endgame but I don’t know what it is quite yet. There most likely is a lot of holes in this theory, but I’m using my best capability of thinking that one could have at 10:00.

Your animations are always so sinisterly endearing

I cannot begin to describe how in love with the animation I am, I would do so so love if this became a show or at least a series this is so gosh darn amazing!! Wonderful work!

боже , это прекрасно , сам стиль рисовки и задумка просто шедевр

Holy cow, I'm never this early. A masterpiece as always, perfectly creepy. I can't wait to learn more about their story.

Это просто что то прекрасное. Пересматриваю сотни раз, теперь я знаю что я буду делать в ближайший час.

I love how Roz's adoptive family is in the background instead of it just being random corpses

The animations are so smooth and the story it tells is absolutely stunning!! Beautiful work.

Вау, автор этой анимации посмотрел даже перевод? Или же немного знает русский? Анимация крутая и плавная)

I so desperately want to hear the full story of all of these characters. You draw and animate so beautifully!! I have my own OCs and give them their own stories, and I would adore to hear the story you gave yours. ❤️ cheers!

This is absolutely stunning! You captured the feeling of the song in such a beautifully dark way

holy shit the animation and the art itself is amazing. Honestly I would like to see this with a whole story behind it like a short animated show.

Очень приятно видеть, как люди из других стран делают такие прекрасные анимации под наши песни)

Под русскую песню было неожиданно, анимация шик как всегда!!

DAWG I CANT BREATHE ANYMORE THIS IS AMAZING I LOVE YOUR ARTSYYLE WAAGHHH❤❤❤

Honestly the animation was amazing and Im glad you took the time toake this. She is my favorite character and I hope to see more of her!!

I didn't notice this the first several times I watched this, but if you pay close attention to Claire's (sp?) feet from the point when she opens the book, you can see marks around her ankles that look suspiciously like they've repeatedly been tied up. There's already so many disturbing subtle indicators throughout the animation but I love this one the most

So from what I can puzzle together is that the priest (Azanias) , Clare and Ezequiel's father, is an angel just like them and he is incredibly manipulative and abusive towards his children. Therefore he is the complete opposite of how we'd imagine an angel. His halo is shown to be broken ( 0:41 ) and rather than having bright wings, his are dark. That could potentially indicate that he is a fallen angel. We can also see that his face is scarred, potentially showing that Clare tried to resist him at some point. (I don't think it's that likely but it could be) At first he is only sexually abusing Clare but as soon as she leaves with the help of Roz, he moves on to Ezequiel and abuses him in the same way. The fact that Roz is somewhat "freeing" Clare from her "blue hell" (perhaps being a reference to the priest's blue hair) could be just because she had been weakened mentally and she was easy to corrupt or because he was somehow taking his revenge on Azanias for probably being the one who sealed him into the book. As to why the door to the library used to be locked by heavy chains and it suddenly got opened, I mean, it's possible that in fact Roz opened it himself but I think that explanation would be too simple. Also what I keep thinking is that Azanias and Ezequiel (naturally) look really similar to one another and that might also be the reason why Ezequiel has a deep hatred for his body (aside from the abuse he had to endure) and also why he decides to wear glasses (shown in the " Pick a flower meme") in order to alter his appearance.. Also can we just talk about Clare's eyes? They are gorgeous but in my opinion they aren't really how you'd expect the eyes of an angel. They look like a cat's eyes or a snake's eyes! Perhaps that was just a stylistic choice the artist made but maybe it does have a deeper meaning🤔 Edit: Fixed a typo Edit 2: I don't think I ever got that many likes on a comment lol, thank you!!

This is the first animation ive seen with ice peaks music ITS SO GOOD THE SMOOTHNES IS YES

i love how everytime i watch this it keeps getting better and better, i start noticing alot of the small details and it is just MWAH *chefs kiss* perfect

Так прикольно чуствовать себя когда иностранцы/люди не знающие русский язык слушают песни на твоём родном языке. Потом понимаю что они не понимают ничего)

Русская песня? Ух прикольно) Кстати анимация прекрасная💕💕💕

i love this, and it also keeps showing up on my fyp since its been uploaded, such nostalgia

this actually is insane! everything about this is just so well made! im an artist and im inspired by your art ^^ keep it up.

Did Roz get sealed in that book? It seems quite likely. Did the priest seal him into that book or did something or somebody else seal him in? I also have a theory for "the sun" from your cradles meme. Does "the sun" refer to as souls? And when Roz collects souls/eyes he gains "their sun"?

Joder aún recuerdo cuando veía tus primeros memes de animación, ahora esto es otro nivel 😔💖

Ты делаешь потрясающие анимации! ♥

ВАУ. Анимация, динамика, эмоции, позы просто 😩😩

Это было очень красиво! И атмосферно до мурашек по коже. Спасибо!

MY INTERPRETATION OF THIS PART OF THE STORY: So this is definitely Eziquiel's sister, (maybe named Clare?) and her flaws within Heaven definitely fueled who Eziquiel would become in later in life. From what I've gathered from past videos, especially "HER," Eziquiel was born with a sister. He was the pure angel, and this sister was flawed with hellish traits: the pointed tail and claws (both of which Roz has). Because of their father's 'pure'/abusive behavior, this sister was shunned and harassed all her life, and Eziquiel (the pure sibling,) was kept far away from her. Obviously, the sister tampered with some seriously forbidden demon sh*t. Her wings became much more demon-looking and she coughed up pink blood. Pink blood...the color of Roz's blood. To tie up that theory, the diamond on the book the girl opens is the same one Roz hides under his nose bandage. His face showed up in the final frames, so he's tied to the events of this video somehow. I think Roz is pulling this poor little girl over to his side. A detail I caught in the 666k video was a drawing of one of her eyes, and the title was "untitled." Like Roz is still working on her.... The description says, "let us free you from these chains." It's like Roz is telling this girl she can be free of all this abuse, all she has to do is let him in. Despite all that though, it looks like the toll it took on Eziquiel was severe too. In the PICK A FLOWER video, Eziquiel is in anguish without his sister, and appears to put on glasses (a very human flaw) to mask his sadness. He's also seen bruised and even getting his wings torn out in the "pick a flower" video. Perhaps thier abusive father thought Exiquiels sister was rubbing off on him....Overall, the takeaway is that Heaven is definitely not all sunshine and rainbows. Wow, that was a lot. Thanks for reading all this if you get down here, this story just fascinates me!

I just got an ad for a Spiderverse Whopper 💀

Absolutely incredible work!

Poor Clare, abused, manipulated and lost her faith and now corrupted by Roz and his victims... now she's free from the chains of her blue hell.

Ого, сколько русских комментариев) Очень крутая анимация, обожаю ваших OC и вашу историю!

This is amazing literally obsessed ❤

I love your character design, the setting of this animation is beautiful aswell, I love the quality ❤

Это очень атмосферно, даже мурашки по коже пошли 😳❤️

Внезапно, русская песня. Неожиданно однако. А анимация, как обычно, обалденная. Проливает немного света на историю персонажа (или мне так кажется¯\_༼ •́ ͜ʖ •̀ ༽_/¯)

Dang! This is awsome! I especially love the wings sprouting out animation

The art is amazing keep up the amazing work

I adore how the from what I can assume, demonic entities weren't animated at first as some sort of visual representation of how out of place it really was considering that everything beforehand was animated, honestly that 'na na na' part at 0:33 made my heart jump when first saw it Not to mention the pacing and narrative set up of everything was really well executed, the implications while not outwardly stated can easily picked up on As well as despite it being apart of a wider narrative shows both quality and intrigue that entices the viewers to look at your channel for further lore which is exactly what I'm doing now And all that is to say, you did an amazing job making this

Так приятно, что русские песни слушают в других странах :)

Wow, the experience of see that and hear one of my favorite songs was magic! Never stop in your art! ❤

This is so perfect, I love your style so much it’s so cute!

K but the main character is so adorable, ive always adored white eyelashes for some reason?

- я очень ждала новое видео!) Наканец оно вышло, спасибо что стараетесь над видео,они получаются просто прикрасными.)

This is so beautifully animated!

The animation is so beautiful you did so good hope you keep up the great work

YESSS IVE MISSED YOUR ANIMATIONSSSS

Как неожиданно и приятно)) У меня от анимации так и мурашки бегают, она просто прекрасна❤️❤️

This is what i feel when taking a bath or I'm alone-

Beutiful animation Edit:I just can't stop watching this and the other art they've made and I just want to say again beautiful artwork.... Keep it up I hope to see this again in the future...

Толькл сейчас поняла,какая это классная анимация,сколько времени она заняла! Обалдеть,обожаю этот канал,жутко но с изюминкой,ШЕДЕВР!!!!💕💕💗💕❤💕❤💗❤💕❤❤❤

Spanish: Amo el vídeooo💜💜 English: I love the video💜💜 Russian: Я люблю видео💜💜

THIS. IS. SO. GOOD. i love the artstyle and animation so much!!

the style the story the character, its all amazing

Боже, это было волшебно и очень плавно, да ещё и знают смысл песни, просто прекрасная анимация, до мурашек 💜

I’ve watched this over and over again, IT’S SO GOODDDD. The storyboarding is exceptionally well done, so much was conveyed in under two minutes.

This will always be a video i will look back on

This deserves more attention I swear this is so good

This video is perfect. The narration, the animation, the music… EVERYTHING! My favorite time is 1:10. I discovered this channel with Cradle and I couldn't help but binge the rest!! This channel is amazing, can't wait to see the 666k video :)

Alright, so the priest originally focuses their abuse upon clare, in the "pick a flower" meme we can see that Clare whilist seemingly happy before their demon side showed, they were actually not. Clare always had bruises on their throat, indicating abuse. As the abuse gains severity, Clare becomes more withdrawn and disassociates to the world. Clare finds a demon calling to them one night, possibly promising release from the abuse they're suffering. They close the book however, indecisive. They end up escaping the church in general, leaving behind their old friend. Its clear they aren't meant to leave the church due to the missing posters in "her". Im going to assume Clare follows the book, letting the demon give them the courage to escape. The demon is also not a kind person obviously. As Clare is not there anymore, the priest turns their abuse towards the other. Inflicting upon him the same exact abuse he inflicted upon clare. Difference is, nobody is there to save him. He grows up in the grasp of his abuser until he finally kills him. His abuser's ideals about christianity n shit still stand, and he carries that religious trauma around him. Clare seems to be freed from that burden though, as they have now no influence upon them but themself. I can't exactly piece together what happens to clare after they run away though. Does the priest kill them? Does Ez kill them? Do they even die? ALSO, the halos above their head seem to represent their current emotions about their religion & their own states. When Clare holds their demon tail their faith waivers, as they are meant to be a holy child and demons don't fit into that idea. Ez seems to not understand the confliction upon Clare's face, thinking the tail is somehow a good thing. Ez's faith in Clare breaks a bit in that moment, not understanding why they are so reluctant to witness their own self. The priest's halo is thorned and black in moments of abusing, representing although they believe they are holy, they are nothing but corrupt and evil. Hell, everything about the church is corrupt, you see blood leak from the crosses, showing how their religion is built upon blood. The cross locks up Clare's own self, imprisoning them for a side they can't control. Their religion is cruel and bounds them, leading to pain and suffering.

I love your animations! ❤

Omg I love your art style ❤

ЭТО ПРЕКРАСНО!! Обожаю фары да эффект, видно, что его участок тоже очень интересный, меня это интересует

Поздравляю, вы призвали русских. К слову, анимация просто божественная...

This feels kinda nostalgic because I remembered the art style from when I was a child. I watched your animal “Cradles” when I was a kid. No wonder it was nostalgic :D

Какая классная анимация и рисовка красивая. Прям целая история, шикарно! 😳☺️
