The Best Ham Sandwich According to a Fish 

I like how the fishes intentions were not in any way sinister.

No matter how good it is it’s still a frozen ham sandwich. You are depressed sir

All of that buildup only for the ham sandwich to be mediocre at best is hilarious, and something I've experienced all too often. Not precisely with a ham sandwich, but trying something that someone spent a whole lot of time hyping up only to not care for it.

"Yeah hey, it happened again... The smug fish... Frozen ham sandwich... Yes you can get frozen ham sandwiches"

I don't know why I thought this would have a dark twist. Kinda enjoyed the lack of a serious problem and it just being a nice animation

the protagonist never questioned the fact that the fish could talk to him but the butcher couldnt hear the fish lol

I like how this guy doesn’t even question what’s going on. He just follows the talking fish through a sea of darkness for a frozen ham sandwich

Well, this fish can talk smooth. Wait, maybe he is a promoter and his payouts depends of every successful selling?

I feel like, seeing as there was only one of the frozen ham sandwich the fish recommended in stock, it would be relatively safe to assume that the brand was discontinued, and that the one remaining in storage could have easily been expired. That, or the fish just has a very different sense of taste than the MC. I think both are equally likely

I was expecting something sinister, but instead got the knowledge that fish have a pretty average rate in ham sammiches.

This is why you should never trust a talking fish awesome work! It looked spectacular!

This is severely underrated, also do frozen ham sandwiches actually exist or....

moral of the story: Never trust advice from a fish. The expectations are always different from reality. All jokes aside, this whole video was very cool. The colour palette and animations flowed really nicely, and the different angles and sound effects were nice too. Cool beans!

I’m so obsessed with this art style. This was so well done

This is amazing! The color combinations and the camera angles are definitely one of the highlights of this project, You've done a fantastic job with the character design as well. I'm looking forward to seeing more animation from you in the future. Your linework is really strong against the colors you choose and it absolutely fits together like a puzzle piece with your style. I feel like you must have had that scene at 1:43 or so with the sandwich ingredients since you started working on the project-- or was it indeed added later? Great work! I have one question: what's happening when the MC splits into two- one smaller, one larger? Is there a meaning to this part, or is it to emphasize the space they're in? Either way, incredible!

The thing that I personally love about this animation is that the world around him crumbles into abstractness and he just chills

This feels if like a dream that you would wake up from and feel upset that you didn’t get to see what happened next became real…idk why but I love it

the vibes on this animation are so stellar dude! the trippy smears over his face when he enters the darkness with the fish is so well animated :]

This fish dude is so rad if I came across him in store I would probably die and crumble into many atoms or something

I've made it a tradition to just rewatch this every month

the entire story was basically: chill man gets tricked by a talking smug dish into buying a frozen ham sandwich that doesn’t taste good and that’s one of the best story premises i’ve ever seen

I really love this I wish you could make more this vid is so unexpectedly calming, I expected there to be a twist but nope, just a magical fish recommending a guy a frozen ham sandwich

probably one of the most technically impressive Cal arts films I've seen this year, The colors, the morphing shapes, excellent movement. all in all, it kina goes hard

i don't know what this means exactly but it was a journey that i was delighted to go on

of course, a fish would know what the best ham sandwich is

he fell for the two slices of ham one slice of cheese trick... never trust a sandwich with those proportions love this btw. super good animation and the design of the main character really fit his general vibe. also the fish. the fish had a great face

This is incredible. The sound design combined with the everchanging graphics made for such a delightful yet mysterious experience

This is a very beautifully surreal short. Absolutely loved the artstyle and the animation movement! :)

I love how you took something completely normal, like getting something from a grocery store which is a frozen ham sandwich in this case, and turned it into something nobody would’ve expected.

It's wacky seeing something this high quality from a channel with less than 1k subs. RU-vid seems to have tuned the algorithm to recommend more small channels, which is the first based thing they've done in like 10 years. I really hope you get big!

i love the fish's voice and now i want a ham sandwich your style is really good

Extremely underrated. I hope your work gets more attention like it deserves soon! The animation here is fantastic

i'm obsessed with this. really incredible work and SO UNDERRATED

I like how this can be a surreal and strongly metaphorical story of or it can just be an animation about a fish recommending a frozen ham sandwich to a store customer for no apparent reason. Good art allows for either interpretation. Very well done! I enjoyed it!

Legendary work here, absolute god tier animation. Fluid movement, so much expression, great use of colour and a sort of silly story that you could probably theorize about what it could be synonymous to but I'd guess it was just meant to tell the simple story mentioned in the title. Pleasant to watch, 10/10.

Omg, why is this so underrated!! This is incredible

Awesome work dude!!!

YO WAIT THIS IS SO UNDERRATED, YOU DESERVE WAY MORE SUBSCRIBERS!!!!

i love how surreal it is. totally gives a thursday afternoon vibe

I've been transported back in time to the days of simply good animation

*_*enjoys the hell out of this, assumes it got recommended because of how wonderful and popular it is_** *_*notices the criminal lack of views_** I'm genuinely shocked. It's only a matter of time before more see this, though.

the dialogue and voice acting is so calm. this could help me sleep if it were an hour long.

“Come one in. Don’t mind the darkness.” Two sentences that should never be said by a trustworthy person

Absurd wholesomeness is quickly becoming one of my favorite types of media... and this is a perfect example of that.

i love this, the animation is one thing but the concept is so sweet and silly. I like how the dude is only slightly hesitant to trust the random fish

How is that person so calm, I would freak out by the sight of a talking fish.

I really enjoyed the vibes of this short. Stellar job!

i imagine this HAS to be based off of a dream the op or someone had. it definitely seems like a dream i would have, honestly…. if it isn’t though, then damn do u have one hell of a cool creative imagination. i love this so much

This always gets put on my recommended when I'm in the most depressed possible place... _& I'm not complaining..._

Bro this is just the family guy cutaway gag with bed bath and beyond

I was in the AIF festival and saw your film and I just wanted to let you know this thing is a goddamn masterpiece! So glad this is up on RU-vid so I can rewatch it! 10/10 funniest film

This is such a great animation! The art style, your color palette, the lil’ facial expressions, everything is awesome!😌🙌🏾

I was expecting some weird plot twist, but really it's just a wholesome animation that has a fish with bad taste

I think the fish was being paid to say all that, lol.

love this a lot very adventure timey pacing with the casualness of it all, i feel rly at peace great jawbbb

They encapsulated exactly what I thought the back looked like as a kid

That man got hustled by a fish. I don't think I'd ever let myself live that one down.

Phenomenal sound design! Great storytelling, great animations - especially the explanation section - and a hilarious ending. More!

This is the first animation I've seen in a while that's both amazing in animation quality and genuinely funny. Fantastic video, and I wish everyone who worked on this the best of luck in future work :)

I like how the guy just rolls with it

This is one of those moments where you just randomly find gold on RU-vid

Looks and feels so good, something about the line work and colors make me feel so tingly

i want more. idk why but this is so calming and nice to watch great job

I love this!! The colors, and the minimalist designs are so gorgeous. Paired with the more monotone inflection of the fish- its so good!

i can't stop watching this it's so compelling , great animation work ham slice

This is like a point-and-click edutainment game I would’ve played on the Wii as a kid.

This is absolutely stunning!!! The section with the sandwich animation was great. I never felt lost, you had a great way of establishing space. Congrats on finishing and best of luck after school!

I absolutely adore how you drew the ingredients of the sandwich! I especially love the „dance on your tongue“ and the bread with „the crunch and soft pillowy interior“! So nice to look at, so nice to hear!

Wow, this is fantastic. I'm glad this popped up on my feed. Can't wait to see more from you :)

The description of the sandwich was like a description of this video, instead the end was satisfying.

This is either the best, or the worst ad I’ve ever watched…

This was just great, really enjoyable from beginning to end. I’d love to to see more adventures of this man-faced fish and his mid food recommendations :)

Sir you don’t need the best frozen sandwich you need therapy.

This was amazing.

Wow, I just watched a 3 min ad for a nonexistent sandwich, and yet somehow it was entertaining the whole way through.

That fish's face is the embodiment of the basic bees face from bee swarm simulator

This deserves more attention I love it

I like this animation more than I thought I would. Love the art style and the serenity and gentleness of the characters’ voices!

the sound design and compositing, so good

Fish probably don't have taste buds. Why anyone would trust the tastes of such a handsome fish is beyond me.

My biggest surprise is that somewhere in the world they sell frozen sandwiches.

The visuals and audio was soothing, very relaxing :)

Oh this is amazing. I'm certain this is going to explode soon. Hope this gets the attention it deserves!

This is spectacular to say the least! Can't wait for more vids ❤️

I love this!! The perfect level of weirdness, the amazing visuals and even the voices fit so well Please do more!!!

This is the most beautiful and underrated video I have ever seen

this is really cool, i love the surreal aspect of it

this is gorgeous, i wish this was more popular

yooooo this is amazing truly outstanding and outlandishly creative work

Thanks for sharing such cool projects with us, I live on the other side of the world and will never be able to attend such incredible schools, having the privilege to see the students work is incredibly encouraging. Makes me want to work harder!

Underrated. Hope this video gets more views soon

Animation was incredible, loved the ascetics and color palette. You, my good sir, are a very talented artist.

i’ve been so burdened with caring about so many different storylines, that i’ve been meaning to find something i can just enjoy without being concerned and this animation has filled that hole for me. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

This is amazing and I desperately hope you keep at it!

I only find videos like this after midnight. And I love them.

The animation is so fluid and mesmerising.

So nice of seaman to help this guy pick out a frozen ham sandwich brand

"Can I help you?" *nods at fish and walks away without saying anything* For real though, I'm in love with the way you animated the textures. Almost makes me want a ham sandwich, but I think I'll just stick to rewatching this instead

OMG I READ THE TITLE AND SAW “The best human sandwich, according to a fish.” AND GOT SO FUXKING CONFUSED

*I like how after all of that its just ok*
