To be fair, it makes a lot of sense for it to be High Elves. It also makes sense because it was a literal entire government. Like, it would be like America picking a fight and being like "What's he gonna do, come burn down the White House?", not expecting him to get surprisingly close.

some of it is surely ego because the school does carry his name, but my favorite thing about aguefort is that he genuinely cares about the kids he's teaching to be adventurers

The crawling through the rift part will never NOT be hilarious to me. Arthur really said, "They fucked around; time for them to find out!" 😂

Dumbledore would leave Adaine in the bubble until she would be grateful enough to die for him

Behold, what a REAL level 20 wizard would do with their truly irresponsible amount of power

Ya know I completely thought this sequence was going to be some fucked up dream sequence fantasy and that Adaine was still stuck in the depths of Aelwyn's mind somehow (especially since the episode was called The Dangerous Mind of Aelwyn Abernant) but then the scene just kept going and I had to accept this was happening for real

I recall him not knowing entirely how he did it. Basically, I think it's an actual star, but for a brief moment, with all his immense magical power, he bent space-time and reality itself to grab and the star and wield the essence of its almighty power.

He failed utterly at helping... I mean epically, but he was still more helpful here than Dumbledore was across 7 books.

Just to be clear, Arthur Aguefort didn't preemptively attack. He offered a choice, and some cheeky tool decided to fuck around.

I once had a minotaur sorceress who was the owner of a wandering magic shop in a campaign. There is absolutely nothing more fun than having a stupid powerful npc mage who is too chaotic for practical magic and too hyperfocused on being cool to solve anyone's problems. Wonderfully done art, you really made our headmaster shine!

100 meter tall titan that stole the very sun itself! On this day, the Elves received a grim reminder...

Honestly, I was waiting for the depiction of the Sun being dragged across the sky

Love how he shows up, does something super powerful, it barely does anything, and then leaves. He is truly the most based wizard of all time.

tahanks for animating arthur A as the absolute chaos gremlin that he is

This is what Gandalf would’ve been if he continued being a god

You know the best part about this. He didn't actually solve the player's problems, and did not take away from their experience adventuring. He did stop them wasting precious game time worrying about reinforcements by both apparently resolving that and also by putting a time limit on their plan. However, Adaine is still in a cell, the players still need to come rescue her, the encounter goes on as planned. And then, not shown in this video, a cut scene that makes it clear the Aguefort card can only be played once in this adventure. This is how you use an immensely powerful ally of the party. Not to steal the player's adventure, but to solve a problem that might be keeping them from adventure.

this is such a great moment to animate and you did it SO well. The way Augufort climbs over his desk and through the rift was just amazing.

This was so amazing, like it had it all. One of our faves beeing "saved", The crazy ness of it all, the bad guys going like "oh we fcked up", and that all of this was just a small side thing that was going on in the background for the rest of the season. Love it!

Arthur Aguedort is the kind of man to create a nation rending spell, just for it to be a distraction😂

The recorded msg makes Aguefort look high here. Which would sound on par for him knowing his stance on recreational drugs and having a good time

“Brennan had a really bad fever recently” - given when it was filmed, did Brennan have covid before it was ruled a global pandemic? If so then this is the ONLY good thing that Covid has wrought: this Aguefort sequence

I will miss Aguefort during junior year!

I love that Aurther Aguefort is clearly what if we took Dumbledore, gave him as much cosmic world-bending powers as we can, and then, made him a crackhead

"very well, you have chosen the way of pain. Goodbye." *Poof*

Appears, binds reality to his will, grabs the sun, destroys mountains, shits blood, doesn't rescue any students, actually makes things worse because now he can't afford to pay for hirelings, leaves.

4:20 Can confirm, this is what fever dreams feel like. Dreampt that I was Gear5 fighting the WickedWitch.

Not only did Arthur never make good on that promise, but Arthur’s attack didn’t phase her in the slightest. Which sucks.

Aguefort grabbing the sun (a complete perspective mindfuck) and channeling it through his body in glowing white-with-energy veins as he spits fire across the sky is one of the clearest and sickest visuals I've ever heard described, and it's not close to number two on those lists. Excellent capturing of it.

3:34 The little laugh from someone as the description of "He's growing as fast as he's falling." Is visualized in her head. Also I laughed so hard at the idea of a coupla Hugh Elves being so arrogant as to ignore Augefort's warning

The moment Brennan says he raises his hand behind the Sun I'm all in. That is a mage at the peak of magic.

this was my favorite bit of sophomore year and im so glad to see it animated

Oh man This scene and the afternath of it with Kristen I couldn't breathe the first time from laughing so hard

My favorite part of this is Ally reminding everyone that Brennan just came out of being sick with a high fever prior to improving this

Haven't gotten to this part yet, but holy shit this animation is amazing

Ohhh, I love the way you portrayed the growing while falling line - I never realized that's how it looked!

Arthur is *my* headmaster.

I love that he could do this the whole time but chose to kill the guidance counselor and himself in the first episode for seemingly no reason if he was this powerful

Adaine's face at "Adaine's in her bubble" had me cackling

i never want to see arthur aguefort drawn any way other than these goofy ass circles. its so CHARMING and SILLY and PERFECT

Thank you for reminding me of this scene! This was so funny!!

The audio was cut together really well! It genuinely sounds like it happened all at once

This was the best and funniest dues ex machina ever 😂

god this scene was so good i'll never get over it. you did a great job with it too

I really like Siobhan's little "Yeah!" at 1:31.

This is a 10th lvl illusion spell if ive ever seen one

Holy shit this is an AMAZING animatic this came on my recommended so probs gonna blow up in a sec

I love the detail of how absolutely bug-eyed-in-the-best-way Arthur is by nature, but the secomd he gets serious, the bug-eyes get fully shadowed out

I'm glad someone did this scene. I wanted to make my own animatic for it, but this is great!

I’ve watched this probably 20 times, it brings me so much joy 😭

Arthur Aguefort, maintains his crazy adventuring spirit, even in his old age

Excellent work! this is truly the essence of arthur aguefort

amazing animatic. great job!

This was amazing!!

I feel like Aguefort is if Makarov from Fairy Tail was on the opposite side of the alignment chart

Did we ever find out what the hell that even accomplished? Like... Did they actually go to war? Or was he just bored?

The idea was that it kept the reinforcements off the bad kids and allowed them to reasonably pull off their plan. Later it turns out Arthur couldnt handle holding the sun or being that big so he likely didnt have a huge impact on fallinel, but was certainly a problem for the time the bad kids needed a distraction.

I KNEW deep down that someone had made an animatic of this scene. Epic.

Anyone else like “Aquefort could have done this THE WHOLE TIME?!” ‘This’ being rescue Adaine’s sister from torture. Like I know she wasn’t an Aquefort student so didn’t have the protection but the headmaster could have done ANYTHING. Adaine had to get herself imprisoned before he was like “Oh now I care” I’m very emotional about these two siblings okay?!

Aguefort himself points out later in the season that, being a Time Wizard means he has very little 'attachment' to things, due to constant leaping through time. Probably why he has a specialized auto-response to someone invoking the Aguefort name in defense of a student. Plus, it requires there to ba one of his own students in danger, and given that Aelwyn wasn't an AA student, Aguefort didn't particularly care. Also, I may be remembering incorrectly, but didn't Aguefort jut recently broker peace between Solace and Fallinel?

I think that aguefort could easily have actually fully collapsed solace, but he is just too much of a chaotic dumbass to not do 15 experimental spells and almost kill himself
