The Diary of Sheriff Isaak (TAZ Animatic) 

This was the moment that everything changes for me while listening to The Adventure Zone. This moment made me realize how incredible the show really was and how deep it could be. This was the best show of Griffin's story-telling ability and I couldn't believe what power it had over me. I never would have expected that TAZ would become as incredible and intense and emotional until this moment. Thank you so much for making this.

Me, crying all over again: .... this was supposed to be a comedy podcast..........

When the music picks up after Taako says Junebug!!!!!

THIS. THIS MOMENT. You can just... urg. AAAAAAAAh. That moment when he's so stunned by how well Griffin's put together this story his jaw drops and he has to pick it up off the floor before he can say "junebug." Good lord I wish I could write that well. It makes you wonder how many of the best stories, the best plot elements have come out of games like this, projects like this. Out of someone's desire to really screw with their friends heads in the best way possible.

Sherrif Isaak is the prime example of why Lucretia didn't want the relics out there. A man, who otherwise would never kill a friend, was so enticed by the Temporal Chalice that he murdered his friend just to get it. That's why Lucretia didn't want the relics out there. Mind you, the barrier would not have helped either, but she still had a point. The Relics would have doomed that world.

I JUST STARTED CRYING BECAUSE THIS WAS SO WELL DONE, AAHH.. One of my favorite narrations in the whole series.

"...Junebug." It gives me mad chills every goddamn time

The two beats before revealing June’s situation killed me

Oh wow I really enjoyed this. And I appreciated how you edited the audio to give more oomph to Roswell reforming. And the shot of the statue when talking about Jack and June! So good!

It's good that taako got a skill that lets him read 10x faster than normal or this scene would've ended much differently lol

this is so amazing!!! god every time I listen to this part of the eleventh hour (and every part of it tbh) im just reminded of how completely amazing griffin mcelroy is. like the adventure zone was his first fictional creation as far as I know and he knocked it right out of the park

I never really pictured June would be dad like that. I guess I never really thought about how June would feel in that situation. Tears in her eyes as one of the few people she trusts murders the her best friend, frozen in time as a reminder to Isaak of what he's done. That shot is hauntingly beautiful. Wonderful job!

YOU GOT THE BRACER!!!!!!! ON THE CORRECT ARM!!-!!-!!---!!!!!!!

Hey there, i'm the blog who posted this audio!! This is so amazing, holy cow!!

Great job! This was excellent. So glad someone took the time to animate this scene, and do it so well.

this was the first time I knew what power the relics have over everyone

God this is beautiful. Thank you for such a provocative animation. It made me feel things.

i remember when i listened to this for the first time. i wasn't that emotional, but this version... i can feel it physically lol. the music and everything just go so well with your amazing drawings. everytime the beat drops and it syncs with the video i get chills.

A powerful scene and a great animation to match. Truly Griffin put a lot of time and thought into TAZ, for which I am so grateful for. Thank you for animating this incredible scene

i cried. damn you, griffin mcelroy this is awesome

this was so.... good. ive watched it over 5 times in a row now bc this is one of the scenes i simply cant get over. youve done it so much justice. its gonna go in my list of animatics ill watch years after ive finished TAZ.... so so so so well done. amazing . im completely in awe

The music makes this

it's April 7th 2018, I listened to this a year and a half ago, I know what happens, I know the ramifications and how everything turns out...and im still sitting here openly sobbing...god damn it Griffin

This is absolutely gorgeous, really really well done

I've got fucking GOOSEBUMPS

oh my goooosh this is so good aaa!!

Oooo I really like this! I forget about this scene. Well done!!

Exactly how I imagines this scene but more incredible. It need more views. Liking and susbribing.

Recently, I finally started watching TAZ. I just finshed the Eleventh Hour arc. All the characters in that arc were perfect, but my favorites were Sherrif Isaak and Roswell. And this moment. The moment where the entire situation gets flipped on its head. The entire arc was an uphill climb, and the journal was the final piece the Tres Horny Boys needed. The rest of the arc was them assembling the puzzle Griffin laid out for them, and the final moments (or at least what we thought were the final moments) of Roswell killed me. Wanting to know he saved Refuge, wanting to know he did a good job. God, it killed me. But you did a great job with this

I just listened to this on the podcast, and I knew there would be an animatic for it. Taz is starting to get serious

I GOT THIS TO 1K

God Griffins story telling skills are just fucking ridiculous

I got my copy of 11th Hour today, 11 days early. I can't believe the graphic novel adaptation has just destroyed 10x worse the the pod.

Honestly. This is really great.

ROSWELL! The greatest clay boy to ever be.

FUCKIGN CHILLS

Favorite arc.

This was one of the first videos I saw before throwing myself into TAZ... and I've JUST gotten to this bit, where your images flooded back into my brain, and on my drive home from work, I was super moved with context. Thanks for making this and helping to pique my interest into The Adventure Zone :)

AAAAAAAAAAAA WHATS WITH THE TAZ ANIMATIONS MAKIN ME SOB TODAY S T O P

ive got actual tingles rn

Literal chills man. The animation just made this perfect

I'm listening to TAZ for the first time, and I just hit this episode today. This moment was so freaking good.

How this in 2017 if they started the eleventh hour in 2018-2019b

Beautiful. Really excellent. I love this scene so much, and I'm really happy this exists

Great scene but I have always wondered how the diary got there in the first place.

Your Roswell gives me serotonin

This is wonderful just the expressions and just wow.

i clicked on the link to find it and i got spoilers i want to cry

crying

what's this from?

Nice!

nailed it

this is one of my favourite narrated moments, and my absolute favourite soundtrack so far! just the whole end/resolution of the 11th hour arc is my favourite!

oh my god this is so good and my heart hurts
