The Adventure Zone - Arms Outstretched [WIP] 

I'll never get over how all 3 of them say 'word of mouth' in perfect unison

the way lydia appears from behind magnus really struck me. fantastic job.

Gorgeous!!! Love the composition of each shot, and that 360?! SO GOOD!! And the slow-mo when Magnus got knocked backwards, wow!! I LOVE THIS

Just saw this on twitter this is amazing! The slow mo when Magnus is ejected from his body and his anguished expression totally gets me wow

I love how the star in Taako's hat moves

HOLY SHIT! how are you so good! like it flowed so well and the part where Edward whisper bad luck in Magnus' ear gave me chills, and then the part where Magnus take his axe to steady himself was so fluid and nice. also just the fact that nothing is completely still and everything is moving even slightly(which must have taken forever like just looking at taako hat swaying makes me tired.) God, I loved this so much.

This is absolutely stunning!!! I love the way Magnus jolts when Lydia says his name, how Edward-Magnus was flailing around, and the little spin Lydia did. Keep up the amazing work!!!!

Fuuuuck I love this The 360 was impressive The part where she whispers bad luck gives me chills The anguish and slow down when magnus is ejected from his body And the brief flash of Edward behind Magnus IS SO SPOOKY I LOVE THIS

AHH THE SOUND EDITING this is so COOL AHHHH

Hot Diggity shit that is a baller animation WIP!

this is GORGEOUS. so smooth, the animation of magnus falling backwards and catching himself (it feels so natural? and yet completely NOT?), and then Lydia appearing behind him with that beautiful dress movement and the way she moves, the way Edward says 'Bad Luck', the 360, merle's eyepatch, taako's belly and general build. it all comes together in just striking animation. ahhhh this is stellar!!

Oh, god, that animation was so nice! Magnus's fluid movement when he got possessed was so great.

WIP??? Looks WAY more finished than most WIPS I've seen XD

the subtlety!!!! this made my heart stop wtf

the way edward leans in and says "bad luck" is just so smooth!!!

Can I just say? It's so good. like so so good. Like SO Good. The camera moving in a circle when they say word of mouth, the shadow of Edward when they say "bad luck", the fluid motion of it all. I keep coming back to watch this

normally i hate when people remove griffins narration because he narrates so well but you captured everything so well... i hope one day, youll still finish.

HOLY FUUUCK? this is so good!!! one of the best taz animations i've seen. first off, love your designs for the boys. they're simple, and are easily recognisable. the whole 360 thing was just incredible, and very well done. it fit the tension and drama of the scene, and gave us a good look at your boys. magnus' soul leaving his body made chills go down my spine, and the way you played the music with it really added to the scene. your animation looks very fuid, and i adore all the dynamic and subtle movements. 11/10 would watch a bajillion times over and show to all my friends again

This is absolutely incredible. I love how every shot is set up, it’s almost exactly how I imagined it as I was listening to the podcast. This is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

0:30-0:45 especially was DROP DEAD GORGEOUS, such smooth animation! Aaaa!

Nice touch with drawing the ax to stabilize himself. I liked that.

wooah this looks amazing!!! man it's so smooth! the part where magnus' soul is taken from his body looks incredible and the way the steadies himself with the axe and everything is just-- aaAAAHH good job!!!

this is so great! i literally got chills twice - with the 360 rotation of the boys and when Edward whispers in Magnus's ear

Arms Outstretched is my favourite song from the whole soundtrack and this animation is gorgeous

I love this! It's so smooth and fluid! And the details in each expression really convey the emotion so well! And the synchronization with the music was an amazing touch!

Oh MAN the acting in this is SO GOOD!!!!!! The coloring? AMAZING! I love this so much!

I love how they all have a distinct color scheme! And i love how bouncy the animation is too!

This is one of my favorite vids for this moment in the series. The 360 spinning, Lydia popping out, and slow mo "bad luck" moments are just perfect.

the way magnus moves is so unsettling!! i love it!~~!

oh oh WOW everything here is perfection. I especially love the whisper in the ear for "bad luck"

SO GOOOOD AAAAH Lydia's appearance and the soul going out of Magnus's body, amazing

!!!!!!!! I LOVED how you had Edward whisper "Bad luck." into Magnus' ear like that, it made the creepiness factor triple!!!!

Edward surging towards Magnus to possess him as his soul is ripped out is terrifying and I love it thank you

This is amazing!! The "bad luck" moment and when Magnus' soul flies out of his body = flawless. I think is shaping up to be my favorite "Arms Outstretched" animatic so far. Excellent job!!

Holy shit what is this quality? This is so good I can't... what....

This is absolutely freaking amazing! I'm legitimately blown away by the direction and fluidity of the animation. Well done.

This is by far one of the best animations for The Adventure Zone that I've seen! Truly amazing!

This is incredible, I can't wait to see it when it's done. Amazing attention to detail (I love Steven). And that "bad luck" bit was just so wonderfully creepy.

Holy crap this is fantastic. I love your style, I love the fluidity, I really appreciate all the little details of Magnus's expressions and reactions to Lydia speaking. Fantastic job.

HOLY CRAP DUDE! This has got to be one of the best Arms Outstretched animations I've ever seen. That animation and movement is so fluid? The angles are amazing? It portrays the scene perfectly in every way? Your character designs are so beautiful? Literal perfection.

The way Taako and Merle looked at each other is sooo good. Looks weighted with unpleasant knowledge.

Woahhhhhhhhhhhh. This is fantastic. The outfits, the designs, the cleanness of the animation.. I’m stunned.

god I love that touch of magnus whipping out railsplitter to lean on

holy actual fuck literally everything about this is amazing. like not just the smooth and beautiful animation, also just the stylistic choices you made, like the circling around the thb, lydia stepping out from behind edward/magnus. i just love this so much wow wow

This is incredible! The way Magnus gets knocked out of his body, the framing- awesome job! Would love to see more one day but as you said- no rush!

oh my god I am literally in tears from this this flowed incredibly and the spinning and when Magnus knocked back and out of his body oh my god I felt my heart stop and Lydia like shwooming from behind magnus/edward oh my g o d and just. the way everyone m o v e d holy SHIT

Oh DANG Edward's animation was so good! Looks amazing - lovely designs!

I really hope you finish this! It's already very well done, the way you did the 360, the Wonderland ads, Magnus reeling back, it's perfect!! This is a really neat animation. 10/10.

I can't... even... COUNT how many times I had goosebumps!!! THIS is AMAZING

THIS IS SUCH AMBITIOUS ANIMATION AND YOU PULL IT OFF SO WELL!! Honestly I'm just blown away by how much talent you have. I especially like the little bad luck whisper. Chills. CHILLS!

Holy crap????? This is amazing????? I love the like whispery silhouette thing during the Bad Luck ; ) and that bit where Magnus was pushed out of his body??? Holy crap!!!! That's amazing!!! And everybody was so bouncy and Edward had to steady himself and Lydia looked so!! Wow!! Popping out from behind him And like taako!!! And the spinny bit!!! Anyway well done this was great thank you very much

This is awesome! The animation is so smooth and the designs for the characters are great! I know it's a work in progress, so I look forward to seeing the rest. Arms outstretched is my favorite moment of the podcast and I'd love to see it brought to life in this style! Please keep up the good work and thank you for making this!

That was amazing!!! I wish i understood animation enough to really express how wonderful i thought this was. It felt so alive and dynamic ö

OH WOW THIS IS AMAZING. so fluid!! and i love the designs! that 360 shot was amazing too, and i really like some of the spontaneous touches like edward leaning in to whisper in magnus' ear.

I adore this. By far one of my favorite animations of Taz to date.

God the part where Edward whispers in his ear and his soul leaves him gives me chills every time I watch this

this is by far the best animation I've seen of this scene and it's amazing

I love this. I especially love when Magnus says "yes" with a bit of an 'oonf!' Also, when Edward takes over and stands up, it moves so smoothly and looks really natural. Killer job so far!

the amount of effort you put into this is STUNNING. this was beautiful and every single shot was incredible

If this is the work in progress, I can't imagine how beautiful the finished project could be

I have legit chills over how beautiful this is

DYNAMIC!! DETAILED!! SMOOTH!! CANT WAIT FOR THE FULL THING!!

This is so smooth and amazing. I love shadow Edward, and how you animated Magnus getting thrown from his body. Great work!

HWAT?! WHAT?! THIS IS F*UCKING AMAZING!! THAT TURNAROUND, THE MOVEMENTS THAT MATCH WITH THE NOTES, THE SMOOTHNESS OF IT ALL!! THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS 💕🤩

you know, when I first came across this one, I don't think I fully appreciated the LABOR of ANIMATING THAT CIRCLING VIEWPOINT, AS EACH CHARACTER IS ALSO LIP-SYNCED WITH THE DIALOGUE.

It always gives me chills when the boys all say “word of mouth” at the same time. Taz’s only advertising is word of mouth.

I keep rewatching this! It’s so good!!

This is amazing. You could really see the weight of the impacts in this.

This is so fluid and beautiful, it captures the scene phenomenally!

Holy shit; nice dude. I especially like the glance Taako and Merle share; really portrays the feeling of dread and worry they must have felt.

Please more! This is amazing quality and I would love to see a longer version

I'm speechless!! The transitions, the 360 shot, the shot of Magnus flying back - I'm in awe! Your work is absolutely gorgeous!

I hate to be that guy, but more plz. Was good!

HOLY FRICK THIS MUST HAVE TAKEN SO MUCH CARE AND EFFORT AND ASFJFJD IT'S SO PERFECT !!!!! THANK U FOR SHARING AAAAA

Daaaang this was cool. I loved seeing this! The moment where Magnus was kicked out of his body was fantastic!

This is absolutely breathtaking. Oh my god.

Flawless. Absolutely flawless. Cannot WAIT to see more of this scene if you're making it.

God this is done so well! The movements are so smooth and UNF that on-beat glance at one another that Taako and Merle share. SO GOOD. A+ friend like DAYUM.

Wow, just wow, this scene was so amazing and your animation just fits it so well. Brilliant job!!!

As soon as you finish this scene it's going to be my favorite animation done of this part. it's gorgeous

Oh my gosh, a full animation!!! This is incredible, so well made!!!!!!!

OMG!!!!! This is AWESOME!!!!! DAMN!!!! just the colors and details of everything! and it was so smooth! So good :D I would love to see more of your animation and if it was even in your project, I would love to see the continuity of arms outstretched!

I absolutely LOVE this animation, excellent movement and style! I'm not a fan of that rotation trick but it does showcase the character designs super well, so I really can't complain

Beautiful, this is such fluid animation, and the expressions were gorgeous

Fantastic animation of one of my favorite parts of The Adventure! Can't wait to see the full thing!

The animation is just... PERFECT!!!

I'm so late but I neeeed more of this!!! This is the best animation I have ever seen on RU-vid. No joke. I know how much work it is to even animate a second, so I'm stunned! This is gorgeous! I'd be so happy, if you'd continue eventually. But I get it if you don't.

this is just how i imagined this scene!! amazing

Attention to details and descriptions is fucking perfect. Like, Taako is only “normal” in terms of his appearance YES DAWG

I found myself fascinated by all the tiny movements in this animation. Great job!

this fucking animation is AMAZING, their movement is soooo fluid!! I can't wait to see the rest!!

Oh my god oh mY GOD THIS IS GORGEOUS??? The animation is incredible !!

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING!!!

This is one of the most gorgeous things I've seen in a while. Bravo!

Oh my god? Oh my god?! This is amazing?! I am so in awe by how amazing this is.

This is honestly my favorite TAZ animation I've ever seen! It flows so well, and I can't wait to see more! Thank you for making this!

Your animation style is so amazing!! Like holy shit??!!!! Everything you did was so smooth and fastastic

oh gosh this animation is so gorgeous??? i love it a lot aaaaaa

this is EXACTLY how i imagined it i love this! the movement is so clean and your designs are great!

only 32 years left for the complete version, I can't wait
