There are two kinds of 40k fan animations: 1.) Big budget movie quality spectacle that would put James Cameron to shame, all done by one guy. 2.) A few frames of the Emperor hip thrusting the air repeatedly. Both are high art.
Honestly I'm incredibly proud of a lot of the batshit insane accomplishments humanity has racked up but it only adds to the disappointment when we do something incredibly fucking stupid.
@@imasspeons imagine how big E feels knowing the true potential of humanity and seeing what they do constantly. no wonder he just sit in that chair deep in depression.

@@voximperatoris1175 mankind: we create the problems so we can create solutions, also we try making things idiot proof, but we also keep making better idiots so what I'm trying to say xeno is I'm about five seconds away from combining a lemon, spoiled milk, and a bunch of sand into a monster and squirt into someone's eyes and it is going to probably be you
Lemons aren't metaphor for problems, lemons are metaphor for problems that you can do something about. Meaning that in his words, humanity had no problem left that it couldn't fix. But okay 👌

This is legit the best animated Emperor I have ever seen. Not that he gets animated often (he can't move EHEHEHEH) But that is part of the point, I love seeing in flesh Emperor doing his thang
I can imagine the Emperor of Mankind broadcasting this manic speech into the minds of all Imperial subject simultaneously, complete with the New World Symphony in the background.
The fact the Emperor of all people is praising humanity for making lemons, when in the phrase they're a metaphor for our problems, is a level of poetic I can't get enough of
I know right! the last bit of "LIFE NEVER GAVE US LEMONS.... WE INVENTED THEM" has so many interpretations, and the whole thing is somehow still in character for the Emperor. This is a god tier shitpost and I meant that in the most honest praise way.
Not really. They're metaphor for bad situation THAT can be turned to your advantage or that you can escape with your smarts and labor. He means that life gave us EVEN LESS and we're still here.
@@TheArklyte That what I mean with has so many interpretations and they all fit. For me the intended interpretation was "life didnt even give us lemons to make lemonade with, we made our own lemons" as a way to show the resilience of mankind and its technological prowess.
Humans inventing Lemons: Damn we f*cked up, this is so bitter i cant even eat it! Also Humans: Hold on Hold on ... i think we can still salvage this... *proceeds to make lemonade*
Just like we gave ourselves climate change and then immediately cleaned up our act and became an ecologically sustainable civilization. wait that's not right
Unironically, Emp's design here is just chef-kiss. The manic energy he portrays as he is SO HIGH off of sheer belief in mankind's capabilities and future is also so spot on. And the thrusts. Those divine thrusts. Truly, I couldn't have asked for better.
I do really wish we got more cannon looks behind the emperors facade sometimes. I mean, he's the closest personality wise to a modern guy. I know the mystique is kinda the point, but I'd like to know what kinda stuff he found funny.
@@thisgoddamusernamestoodamnlong Considering he grew up in ancient times, and the fact that the oldest known joke is a fart joke, it should be obvious. Emps would probably laugh his golden ass off at a good fart joke. Maybe thats how they finally wakes him up completely, just by having Guilliman fart in front of the Golden Throne. :P
@@The_KeeperI’d say that all the years of maturity and learning as well as the development through the future would change that but… does it ever for humans? I dunno but I definitely could see an offensive fart joke related to Nurgle getting his approval.
From what little I know of The Emperor, that's literally what he is. A multi-millenia-old human who has been a symbol of humanity so long that he is a god of "humanity" the same way Poseidon is a god of the sea.
@@counterstriker500 As much as a good chunk of modern black library authors are still trying to paint him as a shit parent, from early books and codex info we do know he parented about as well as he could while managing a massive multi-system empire and dealing with 21 kids (well 16, he didnt bother to parent angron and alpharius got the dad-treatment by Malcador)
Evolution of philosophy 1 When life gives you lemons make lemonade. 2 When life gives you lemons EAT THEM. 3 When life gives you lemons make life rue the day it dared to give you lemons. 4 LIFE NEVER GAVE US LEMONS WE INVENTED THEM ALL BY OURSELVES.
5. when life gives you bitter oranges and citrons, make lemons and squirt them into life's eyes 6. when life gives you bitter oranges and citrons, gaslight life into think it gave you lemons and say Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”
@@eggwulf2374they are bananas but bananas are also genetically modified. In fact, it is the most genetically modified food and all we ever get are clones of clones.
I'm in love with this rendition of The Emperor as this manic mad scientist who holds great pride for even the most mundane of humanity's achievements. I prefer this to the stoic, brooding version everyone else depicts him as.
The Emperor's a complicated bloke, so I can imagine him going from stoic, brooding version when he's with Malcador (planning for the future) to the manic scientist when he gets a few seconds of downtime with his Custodes or Perpetuals.
Well I got news for you, both versions canonically exists sometimes even at the same time in the same room. The Emperor's mastery over the warp makes a veil that makes everyone see the Emperor as a version they would admire, thar's why he's able to please literally everyone, and why everyone has a different version of the emperor.
tbf while minor to most people because of how mundane they appear alot of the minor things we hold for granted show off our complete mastery over nature like WE MADE A FRUIT we took the natural process of species surviving by developing minor mutations AND MADE IT A SOUR FRUIT. what other species has just said "i dont like the food we have a almost unlimited supply of and can create at basically will....screw it ima make a new one" like its mundane to us but it requires us to literally create exact specifications to genetically modify a orange to CREATE A WHOLE NEW FRUIT...and to top it all off IT SUCKS SO WE DID IT BECAUSE WE COULD. and dont even get me started on spices the level to which humans can use the building blocks around them is so amazing. to be able to harness the chaos of reality a bunch of random variables floating around in space time and what are we able to do with these? MAKE FRUIT THAT SUCKS. humanity can be so cool when we aren't killing each other
@@LordCrate-du8zm "Lord Magos, I am all for the consecration of the blessed machinery, but why for this blending apparatus in particular?" _pan to a gigantic juicer being anointed with lubricants, given wax seals, and surrounded by techpriests slowly swinging lit exhaust-shaped censers towards it, blanketing the overengineered blender gently with scented smoke_ "...Knowledge may be divine, but it may be for the best to not ask questions you are not prepared to have the answers for."
I like to think that part of his enthusiasm is the sheer joy he feels at learning something completely new for the first time in 10s of thousands of years.
I like to think that he does not realize we were also the ones to invent the saying of "if life gives you lemons", so for him the fact that we invented lemons is like a way huger humanity win over nature than it is since there are many more plants we "created"
Given that the Primarchs are facets of him, that means, by reverse, he has *all* their traits. The man both loves Humanity (Vulkan), but is willing to sacrifice what he has to (Peter Turbo) or use whatever tactics necessary (Kurze) to get the job done.
the fact he is almost inmortal and has witness humanity for +50k years but still just found out this recently and it gave him such a sudden inspiration boost its funny(?
I can't stop watching this. Just a masterful performance that really sells how earth-shattering this revelation is. The eye twitching, the gratuitous amount of spit being flung into the camera which itself is exactly where it needs to be, it's all great.
The Mechanicum: “So…we’ve read your report on your time spent with the God Emperor…and…” The One Tech Priest: “Yes. He did. He said that about lemons and thrusted for 13 whole minutes. Idk man…..”
“And so said the Emperor of Mankind, beloved by all, that the core tenet of His Imperial Truth was that lemons, as a prime example of the dominance of Man over the Alien, shall be squeezed into the eyes of all that would do mankind harm.”
Have you listened to the Wizards Last Ryhmes by Rhapsody? Its a metal version of Dvorak's 9th and it goes HARD. It's also the theme of the Bosnian Knight of Ignis
"Better yet, why did you make me believe in a God just to prove to me that religion is stupid?" -Uriah continued to say calmly as he walked into said burning church.
"Because this story we're in is just a gussied up example of what every internet argument between religious edgelords _think_ they're having against atheist edgelords, when the reality is those all have less dignity than an animated video of me hip-thrusting to the skewering of an old truism like it was a profound realization. Now here, let's share these graham crackers and marshmallows and make smores from the smoulders of your burning metaphor, I mean 'church.'"
0:16 is glorious The radiance of sudden realization cascades from the Master of Mankind's face like the first light of a newborn star Truly, the Emperor is the pinnacle of humanity
Juxtaposition of this resplendence and grand revelation with him rambling next to some rando techpriest in an empty room in the very next shot is a comedic genius I will never get tired of. It's perfect beyond words. It's Alfabusa level of perfect in-character comedy.
The Emperor: "My Golden Throne should be fine...as long as nobody tears open a hole to the Warp." Magnus: "Question!" The Emperor: "What's your question, Magnus?" Magnus: "I've torn open a hole in the Warp." The Emperor: "...what?" Magnus: "Tzeentch told me to." The Emperor: "Where!? Where did you tear open a hole to the Warp!?" Magnus: "I have done nothing but rip holes in the Warp towards Terra for three days."
After listening to this glorious speech by the Emperor of Mankind, Belisarius Cawl took the message to heart and spent the next 10 millennia innovating for humanity
I genuinely couldn't tell which way this was going, due to how the Imperium hates mutants. All up to "WHICH MEANS" I thought he was going to scream about wanting to burn them like Cave Johnson.
Big E didnt personally have any (major) problems with mutants or aliens. Its just cus lorgar being the religious piece of crap he is, made everyone belief big E is a god and from there. Everyone believed that anything deviating from human must be purged
@@anonimanonim2710funnily enough yes; even though that’s the LAST thing he wished to be. Also a part of the reason he is so powerful is the Orks. They have this ability where whatever they believe, becomes reality. These Orks have battled the Imperium enough to know how powerful the Emperor is and truly believe that he’s as powerful as a god-thus, making him as powerful as a god.
Considering his age, its entirely possible the Emperor predates the existence of lemons So with that in mind, he probably saw a lemon for the first time and was just like "hey new neat fruit" and just assumed they were from Somewhere Else™ And now here he stands, nearly 40,000 years later, in awe that even before our first golden age, Man was truly capable of great things all along

The pelvic thrusts are REALLY what elevates this from a mere celebration of man's ingenuity to a glorious declaration worthy of being shouted by the Emperor of Man himself.

@@BrianHall33Lorgar’s episode is gonna be him whining to Big E about how he’s definitely a god who should be worshipped, then cutting to Monarchia in flames.
POV: *it is the last episode of If The Emperor Had Text-to-Speech device, The Lion is found in the Warp with the fruit of life by Corax and Vulkan, the Emperor is revived, and with his mind and soul in one piece he immediately starts telling Dorn why the fruit of life was NOT a lemon while trying to do as many squats as he can (he skiped leg day for the past 12000 years) .*
Interesting fact. btw still waiting for the emperor text-to-speech device Jamaica return by the way since technically is not the last episode that's on indefinite
At this point, I don't know whether I should keep watching this video to admire the animation, the emperor himself, or just the fourth movement of Antonin Leopold Dvoràk's New World Symphony.
