However, finishing MH3Us village quests ends with her giving you "Aisha's Pendant" and I decided to interpret that as her name. - This story exaggerates elements found in the game's text. The player being sent to Moga to simply be out of the Guilds way, the abandonment of Moga, the story of the chief - all of them are in the game, but much more subtle and superficial, since MH3/3U are not super story focused. - A few events from the story are abridged for the sake of time management and pacing. - Lagiacrus teeth needing cleaning has no basis in canon and is an idea originated by @TeaCommonShark , an idea I found so cool that I had to include it. - I don't care what you think about the way I pronounce Ceadeus. In fact, I'm not interested in feedback on any of my monster pronunciations, thanks.

This was SUCH a massive upgrade from the original story, of a simple self insert character that saved a village to a story about finding a new home and "Family". God Tier work as always, Ocean Man.

"i had become one with life" chills. pure chills. Tri was my first monster hunter game and i hold it dearly in my heart. hank you for this story. thank you for reigniting nostalgia and pride

The piano cover of "proof of a hero" with our hero hunter giving a speech to the villagers was absolute gold! Literally got me having goosebumps and hair standing up. Holy hell this was definitely worth the wait!!

This was an epic tale of heroism that allowed me to relive one of my favorite games of all time. Amazing work.

As a Dead weight Dual Blades main my self, Can Really Resonate with the our Fellow Hunter Mood.

You make a good fan fiction when it comes to Monster Hunter.

This is such a good way of telling the story of a mainline game without just adding flavour text to what is otherwise essentially a "protagonist saves all" story. Weaving in aspects of found family and actually adding in the hunters training as actual quests fron the game rather than something out of the way is such an obvious yet amazing detail. It was also cool to see one of my top favourit monsters in lagiacrus show up in one of these so that was cool.Often times i do get frustrated with open ended stories when the story was getting really good, but this one im really satisfied with given the context of what led up to the final battle, the poem foreshadowing the potential outcome of the battle whichever way you personally believe it went/interpret it. Plus i also never knew that the bioluminescent segments on cedeus could actually glow red when fully enraged, so its also a great way of teaching new and old players alike some cool details/facts about the world of mh as a whole. Overall another amazing video, absolute quality content and keep up the great work.

Don't worry guys, that hunter's fine. He'd have to have survived to write Chapter 6's diary entry

As someone who started at world it’s such a privilege to be able to experience the older games like this. Keep up the great work!

It would be awesome to see a highrank and G rank edition to this story. Felt like I relived my childhood.

This is your best video yet, actual zenith of fiction. I can't wait to see what legends you got in store for us. You may not know how to make a movie (yet), but man, do you know how to tell an enthralling story. RawnessAndSwag/10

Dude, this hit me right in the feels. You're doccumentaries/legends always send chills down my spine! MH3 was my first game in the series so I do have a big soft spot for it (And God do I miss Cha-Cha and Kayamba).

5:54 "Strapping young man at the village again..." oh boi.... XD 2. The story of chief was heart-breaking bringing aa single tear to my eye as respect for both of them. 3. The courage to lift hopes of an entire village was hitting rly deep in heart.

I adore how Oceaniz treats the monsters like animals in these stories. Making the hunter's first encounter with Legiacrus a threat display instead of a frantic escape- what I would definitely have written- was such a brilliant move, adding a great sense of this world

28:55 Don't you just hate it , When a Monster Leave The Area While you're not Looking, A Half Hour of Tracking Wasted, All because You were Predicting The Wrong Move😢

Love it! Another amazing project. You are my hands down my favorite content creator, thanks for sharing your hard work with us. Very proud to support and be a part of your growing community.

WAKE UP BABE NEW OCEANIZ VIDEO JUST DROPPED HYPE

14:35 the bass coming from that noise was such a mood setter for the terror coming. It felt like a combination of a heartbeat, a pulse wave, and a giant creature's footsteps

I cannot describe how much I loved that! Especially the part of defiance against the orders of the Guild. As someone who started with his Monster Hunter journey in Monster Hunter Tri, I felt that part deep in my soul. Just amazing work, man.

Considering how the first episode ended, I'm glad to see that there can still be happy endings in this world of monsters and small men.

I have not beaten or even put more than 7 hours into a monster hunter game but you’ve made me fall in love with these stories and the nature of monsters hunter, I’m currently in the process I’m showing my friends these videos and we’re now going to try to beat monster hunter and make it to ice world

I listen to a lot of videos awhile I'm at work so I can get inspired ,so when I'm home I can work on my own stories and this story inspired me so much. I would be lying if I said I didn't get teary eyed at work awhile listening to it, thank you so much for this incredible tale.

Not sure if this is taken directly from canon, but the fact that Lagiacrus see humans as threats is fascinating. I loved the threat display scene at the beginning. On the topic of Lagiacrus ecology, why would Lagiacrus rely on birds to clean their teeth? Most crocodilian species clean their teeth simply by swimming with their mouths open, only Nile Crocodiles live in symbiosis with Egyptian Plovers who clean their teeth. Even if they did need their teeth cleaned by animals, they are largely marine and live in a tropical reef, could they not let cleanerfish pick their teeth? I imagine it was probably just a choice to explain why Lagiacrus rests on land aside from just to sunbathe, but it is interesting from an ecological perspective

I really hope underwater combat comes back in the next MH game, would love to see an expanded roster of Leviathan monsters.

Man the memories... MH Tri has been my first MH bought because "the name is cool" and child me was looking at it with hearts in the eyes

You Literally described the deeper layers of what I've felt while experiencing this game as a summary haha thx for this made me very nostalgic and dreaming about a monster hunter world 2 with seafights :D

Capcom should legit hire you I am not joking your ideas and storytelling skills are downright phenomenal, I'd watch your shit any day, it's already entertaining enough as youtube videos. Millions maybe billions of dollars are seriously at stake if they continue to sleep on you dude.

Thank you. Thank you. Just thank you. I can’t believe this. I am a 3rd gen hunter, Monster hunter 3 Ultimate was my very first experience in this franchise, and I was so happy to play this every second, minute, and hour of every day I had with my older brother this is our starting point, our beginning as hunters, and because of you I get to see this amazing story be told through a different light. Lords the sea, Gods of the abyss, you actually recreated the moment when I first did the quest to hunt the two fish which then forced you to encounter the Lagiacrus, it looked at me, like REALLY looked at me and I felt DREAD, I got so scared I put the game down for a few minutes and then ran away the instant i unpaused, this was my origin as a hunter. I love Monster Hunter so much and to see others with just as much passion, and history as me with this franchise is something I hold so close to my heart. Thank you for this Oceaniz!

Rest in peace dualbladesman, Moga village is finally secured thanks for your efforts

Man this makes me want to play MH3U again!

You found a way to display what many of us felt when experiencing Tri. It was my first in the series, and inspired a deep love for this series, and games in general. From the deepest depths of Moga's seas, I thank you so much for this!

This felt very personal to me. I started my hunting journey with 3 Ultimate. I nonchalantly progressed through the first few quests, falling in love with the Dual Blades until I reached the Lagiacrus ambush. I abandoned and tried to become stronger and craft better gear. But after accepting that it was the only way to progress, I completed the quest and played non stop, every day from that point until I solo'ed all of G-Rank, in the 3DS no less. Monster Hunter has been one of my favourite things, ever, from that point on!

Listening to this again, over a year later and my only complaint is that there's no returning to the village at the end. God damn but I love this. Kudos to you!

The descriptions in these videos make me want to draw atmospheric monster hunter art. I don't want combat in them, but I want a shot of what it's like to be in the presence of each beast. The image conjured of Alatreon frosting your lips while simultaneously singing the tips of your hair, standing on end due to the static surrounding you sounds like a picture I NEED to do. If I have that skill yet. Vibrant, not violent. Bringing out the details that the games can't draw attention to.

I've enjoyed the MH stories you have created with what little lore the MH series has to offer. The main titles have never really had a "main story " and was just a repetition of "killer next bigger thing for bigger weapon/better armor." Breathing some life into the world of MH tri was told rather well, and I Dldefinitely remember playing the heck out of Tri and 3u during its prime. This is a random suggestion for a story for you to consider: in the 1st MH game, there is a story of how, in the past, the max quest size that was allowed was 5. This ended up changing due to the village elder who lost his daughter during a Lao Shan Lung defense. It was said that she lost her life due to the Ioprey that gathered in between the area that stretched from the main camp and the final area that contained the last line of defense against the elder dragon. Upon the loss of the chieftains' daughter, he changed it that now any quest from then on would only allow for a max party size of 4, as to ensure that no one else should meet the same fate. This is just a random bit of MH lore I discovered while playing through the very first MH title on the PS2, which, unless you actively went and talked to everyone or got the random info books, would never know. Hope you get to read this and reply with your thoughts.

I am not a very competent hunter and a casual player at best, but your videos and stories have solidified Monster Hunter as one of my favourite franchises of all time. These are amazing, please keep them coming!

Excellent work yet again. Your use of characterization, story structure, and world building for your narrative is just top notch. Having the story build to an open ended yet satisfying climax is not an easy thing to pull off. Said it before, your writing talent is far greater than most anything we've recieved in movies and shows for the past few years I could watch your videos a hundred times over before I'd ever be willing to sit through the likes of Rings of Power, She-Hulk, or Willow ever again in this lifetime

Phenomenal take on Tri's story, Oceaniz! Btw, is the thumbnail supposed to be concept art of Ceadeus?

:') Thank you so much for this marvelous story, Ocean! Tri was my very first Monster Hunter, picked up from a second hand shelf in a shop in a half empty mall during a vacation in... Ireland, I think? I saw the Lagiacrus on the cover, the low price, and felt *compelled* to buy It. When I brought It back home, I swiftly put It in my Wii, and then proceeded to spend the next week getting pummeled over and over by Great Jaggis as my swings missed and I struggled to find the full lock on feature. Also, the online of this game was the first time in my life I was ever called a "noob" by a couple of High rank players and had no fudging clue what It even meant for months. Good times.

That whole letter scene, that was fucking beautiful man

Always loved the story of Tri since its a story that takes place in a small village rather than a large guild focused town. Love the video dude good job!

You’re probably one of the highest quality content creators out there.

this is such an excellent backstory for the first hero of Moga Village

I had shivers during the Ceadeus fight The whole video is amazing, so well-written, told and illustrated My day is all sunny because of you, thank you

Did you make a homage to Godzilla 2019 with the first Lagiactus encounter? Really well done regardless

The speech and the kindness that is given after, made me emotional and brought a tear to my eye, it is whether or not confirmed that the hunter survived, them being one with nature while fighting nature itself is one of the most hyped up moments I have ever imagined! It's as if... The ocean is watching. I cannot wait for the future projects that only THE Oceaniz can create, your content is so admirable and jaw dropping. Your content is one of the greatest pieces of fiction my ears have heard in it's life. As of the Hunter, I don't know what they did for them to get to where they are, but I am happy that they have found their place in life, their place in the nature.

23:32 is that Leif Erikson from Vinland Saga's 1st episode? Very random to see but also very cool, love the video so far and now back to watching

The original story from both tri and 3 ultimate try to do different things like for example the plot twist with Ceadeus, but like from the 1st and 2nd generations, it was kind of basic. But this series shows this story to its PURE ZENITH. A pure piece of art, showing off that special feeling, and pride with the this game. I myself as a Monster Hunter fan, could simply be amazed by this. To put this simply, thank you Oceaniz. Really makes me want to play MH3U, and I’m excited to see what other legends are going to be.

This video is sick dude. I love your storytelling, this has got to be my favorite video of yours yet. The arc this character goes through, the villagers banding together, the descriptions of the monsters, the fights and all the little details, and oh my god your descriptions of caedeus are all absolutely incredible! Please keep making these I love these stories so much and they're giving me so much inspiration for my own writing.

An interesting retelling of Tri's story, but personally I think it looses a bit of its point without mentioning that the ceadeus didnt have to be slain, it was in pain, and if you simply helped it, it would leave. Not every monster needs to be killed, sometimes you truly can find balance with nature

Bruh, this was my 1st game in the series! This not only brings back such good memories, but a year to my eye! 🥲

I just want you to know that i watch your content with 0 skip, that's how good your shit is. Please do continue

Wow didn't knew the protagonist was from Monster Hunters Never Cry V, son of a powerful long sword user.

This was such a fantastic video! Easily one of your best MH so far and another incredible display of you taking the lore of MH and expanding it so much more than in the game! This is such an intriguing and expansive version of monster hunter 3 and makes you truly feel Moga village is a breathing community fighting to keep its existence while the hunter is a character seeking purpose and being able to make a difference in his life rather than some empty insert character the player controls. The final battle against Ceadeus was thrilling and shows the accumulation of the main characters journey and feels so much more alive! Seriously Oceaniz, you’ve outdone yourself yet again with this awesome take on MH3’s story and I can’t wait to see more videos like this one in the future!

I love this kind of videos from you, basically retelling of the games from the player hunter's perspective (except maybe the Fatalis one, he's no sapphire star but it's still a damn good video) I wonder if you'll make videos retelling older games, like the original PS2 game, MH1 & Freedom needs more love

This is an amazing video. Not only is it a very good original story that elaborates further on elements the story like the story of the chief and the reason why the hunter is there, but it also filled me with nostalgia. My first monster hunter game was MH 3 for the Wii and therefore my first elder dragon fight was Caedeus, still being my favorite fight in the entire series. Hearing the boss music was both ptsd and nostalgia inducing! A fantastic video!

I have no idea why it took me so long to watch this video but holy shit, that was AMAZING

Oceaniz this is amazing. This and all of your other Legends and lore videos have inspired me to make a Monster Hunter D&D game based around videos like this. I keep finding myself coming back to your videos for references and lore that I may have missed or forgotten. Side note: I'm hoping there is a sequel to this story that includes the G Rank Quests up to Dire Moralis

Man I love this new series were you tell a tale as a hunter, please keep it up!

If you think i'm gonna get enotional watching a monster hunter video. . . Then you're right, excuse me i need a tissue

Great start to day going to work with an hour long monster hunter video to listen too

That Humming sound pulsating while you narrate the first encounter with Lagiacrus gave me the chills! I've been binge watching your videos while at work and damn I really love your work!

I realize this is the first time I hear "ballista" out loud and I've read it wrong for a decade

Yes! Thank You so much oceaniz! I love your mh stories to the moon the storytelling ability is amazing hope you have a lot more ideas to come in the future ❤

Simply amazing!! I legit had to hold a tear during the guild letter segment.

Dang these videos are some of my favorites yet! Amazing and tense storytelling, and the fact that I’m pretty new to monster Hunter adds a sense of mystery and awe to these creatures you describe. Please keep up the amazing work!!! 👍👍

Can you please do more of these kinds of videos? This is absolutely amazing! The vocal b presentation, the sound effects, and images to match the story were fantastically well done. If it wasn't for the ads, I would have thought I was listening to a book on Audible.

Really beautiful editing work on those images! 🤩

Imagine your hunter is killed by the Guilds' Knight for disobeying As always, REALLY good video, probably my favourite, you actually made me want to replay 3tri

I absolutely love these stories! Thank you for this amazing stuff! I appreciate all of it!

I love this log book styles videos they feel like something that actually happend in the mh world. And Moga is my favorite village I would have slain a flock of Fatalis to proteced it!

Perfect timing tysm for posting I enjoy these videos so much💯

I am in love with your story! It's soooo epic i couldn't stop watching until the end!

i love the legend videos, you make them so real and intense. my only wish would be if they came out more often

God damn this is good and we dont know the dude dead or not but damn 1v1ing an elder dragon and have a darw or a win with a suppurt of all people in the island that is epic af. Hope that litte fellow didnt die.😅

This was awesome. Thank you for creating this amazing video.

Not gonna lie, I cried twice. First with the Village Chief, because I also had my time when reading about his past, and somehow, I don't know why, but I felt inspired and also all of his hunter tips that still are in my mind afer all these years helped me a lot in the progress of the game. So it's fine to say that I see Moga's Chief as a father, of some sort. And second, with the 2nd phase song of Ceadeus battle, it brings so many memories, many of them. Maybe that's the reason why I love MHtri, it feels me with a lot of feelings. Thanks for this.

It’s amazing how you will make underwater popular thanks to your fanfics. Shoutout to you bro, keep it fresh.

I wanna see this as a movie. I hope you plan on making more stories!

You’re an amazing storyteller. I got chills during the poem.

Im still new to the series with Rise but seeing videos like these that cover the imaginative lore of the other games, it makes me just as excited for when I get to play them all. I love your stuff, Oceaniz☺️

Oh my god, dude. I have nothing. you left me speechless. thank you again for yet another amazing story.

The end of chapter 3 made me cry fr

Nostalgia invades me 😭

Gahhh this is beautiful! I love your stories so much, your voice adds so much and the visuals are beautiful.

I could be wrong, but I would assume the author survived since he wrote the last entry where he fought ceadeus. Perhaps he eventually stopped writing and just chilled in moga village. Unlike the [R E D A C T E D] story where the author's last entry was them prepping for the fight again.

what a good story man. Love this type of content

Love those narratives videos!

Dude that ending, it felt like something straight from Star Wars Rebels when that one character let themselves be in the moment and did what they needed to do.

Yet another incredible project! Thanks man!😊😊❤❤

As always, you knock these documenteries out the park. Keep swinging, man!

This, among others, made me realise that I missed out on something starting my hunt in the new world. Elder dragons don't feel like as big of a deal in world. That sense of a walking (or in this case, swimming) natural disaster is lost.

love what you did with the story of MH3

Oml...a fanfic of my Favorite game i ever played...great job for bringing so much Honor to a game i hold so dearly in my heart and great job too.

LADS NEW OCEANIZ LEGENDS VIDEO JUST DROPPED

Are you going to do the legends of Alatreon and Diremorlas eventually? Also this was amazing video keep up the good work.

Now THIS is perfection!

No words could express how much I love this. ♥

This is beautiful, my lord.
