I hate those liches, too. My friends and I were doing this as a campaign and my paladin had to give up his longsword his grandfather gave him.

"and then loot him for Julia!" is such an exquisite line

this scene is so impactful when you know how much effort Travis put into Magnus' backstory.

“And just like that....Magnus’ quest for vengeance ends....” “...AND OURS BEGINS.”

I interpreted Clint's "And our's begins!" as a joke, but between the look Merle and Taako shared and the flash-forward to them killing the slimy asshole....well, it's *nice.*

"AND OUR'S BEGINS"

Future Taako and Merle was an excellent edition, I got chills when Travis made the call.

I missed the "loot him for Julia" line holy crap my life is complete

"And then loot him for Julia!"

This was the first scene in the show that had me bawling. Of course, it's smattered with jokes as always, but I couldn't help but cry when I knew what was happening. After listening to his reaction to the chalice in the previous arc, and knowing how important this was to him, and just listening to how sincere he was to Taako and Merle to continue on his revenge for him broke me. Such a touching and sad scene.

i especially like the bit where taako rests his elbow on merle's head,, its good good tol and smol friendship interraction

Hi, can I just say that I love the last part of this? Like, the whole thing is wonderful, but that end, where Griffin says "Magnus' quest for vengeance ends," and then Clint cuts in with "And ours begins!" That was a really funny line. But seeing Merle and Taako look at each other, with that steely glint of determination... It just reminds me that, sure the Tres Horny Boys joke a lot and just plain mess around, but they're family. They've seen each other at their best and their worst, and they hurt when one of their family is hurt. So seeing that look of determination in Taako and Merle's faces, as Magnus forgot about his quest for vengeance--I have no doubt in my mind that after the Story and Song Arc ended, any time not dedicated to Taako's school or Merle's adventure camp were spent in this epic quest of hunting down Mad Governor Kalen. Right up to Merle holding him in place with some powerful binding spell, as Taako glares down at him, and mutters, "This is for Julia...and Magnus. Abraca-Fuck You, asshole!"

Heres the thing Spoiler warning After magnus turns into a mannequin, and then returns to his body, griffin specified that the memories of the governor are there since the blood was taken from before magnus went to wonderland, this also undid the aging specifically... not sure about the max hp reduction he got though...

@765ZackAttack

@@fatedunion1761 Actually, the inverse is true--Griffin stated that the body that was made in the tube was made with blood from pre-Wonderland Magnus, so physical losses such as his finger or his age did not carry over. However, soul losses, such as his memory of Mad Governor Kaylen, remained, because his soul is still there. A good reflection of this would be Barry Bluejeans, who every time he died had to be remade in a tube just like Magnus, and when he inhabited that body, he had no memory of his past. He was still Barry, he was still inhabiting a body that technically existed before the Voidfish's memory wipe, since the first body was made from his blood, from a body that died before the memory wipe could fully affect him. And yet he still forgot everything each incarnation. Because memories are tied to the soul. It's likely that the only time Magnus will ever remember Mad Governor Kaylen again will be the day that he passes away, and by then Taako and Merle would've hopefully hunted him down and brought him to his horrible end, meaning he can truly, truly rest in peace when he's brought to his home in the Astral Sea.

I love everything about this. The expressions are so wonderful and I literally gasped when it switched to Taako & Merle in the future.

“Statistically speaking we’ll probably kill him anyway” is such a true statement for DnD

It’s cool being named Julia and knowing somewhere Taako says “IM GONNA LOOT YOU FOR JULIA” yeah that’s pretty cool

Can we just appreciate that, without any hesitation, Merle and Taako take on a revenge quest to kill and a man that they don't know, for a woman they've never got to meet, all for their friend? Like, god! One of the best parts of Suffering Game is that it really shows how close the THBs have become over the course of the series, they still bicker and often don't agree on things, but they're truly there for each other, thru thick and thin, like not just this scene, but a scene later when Magnes offers to take the penalty so Taako won't have to give up his beauty, and of course 'Arms Outstreched'. Like, god it's just so good!

I think when we first heard this we were all scared the lyches would take Julia from Magnus, but in hindsight, Griffin would never ever take something like that from one of the boys.

This is amazing!! Apart from how much I love Magnus and his story and how emotional this scene is, I also just wanna say, I really love Taako in this scene. He's often portrayed as selfish or vain, but his actions here just seem so sincere, like, he's been with these guys longer than he can remember (literary), he cares about them, they all have a pretty strong friendship by this point, even if the past is yet to be remembered, and it just really shows here, y'know? You did a spectacular job on emphasizing that, with how Taako gently puts a hand on Magnus' shoulder, or how determined him and Merle look at the end, or with the flashback that shows that they really did uphold their promise to Mag, and it's just really, really great.

4 years after lol, but you're so right. A lot of people think that Taako doesn't care. But he cares so much about the people close to him. He'd let worlds burn if it meant the people he loved were safe.

Taako is so perfect in this! This is actually my headcanon Taako from now on.

Damn the expressions in this are great. Love the cut to the ruins of Raven's Roost, that hurt. Thanks for posting!

I love griffins reaction when travis rolled this. He almost doesn't want to give him that as the sacrifice, but the liches do.

I really want a live show where they go after governor kalen

This is both sad and funny at the same time…

So good. So good so good so goooood. Love the interpretations of all their looks. Love the interpretations of their actions. Love all the different angles. Love the scene you chose and how you chose to just show a lot of it in the wonderland room. Such a nice succinct end and beginning of the Kalen/Calen revenge quest. And I totally missed that comment by Merle about hating the Liches my first listen so that was great to catch as well! Thank you for putting the time that you did into this.

It's from The Adventure Zone, a D&D (dungeons and dragons) podcast.

the expressions on Magnus are so fucking good here? like ALL of them are good but Magnus especially, damn. Well done dude

this was ROUGH. I'm crying like a baby. You did such a good job!! The expressions, the animations, it's perfect.

omggg the change of atmosphere starting at 1:40 KILLS ME like i get chills the art just UGH subscribed

I literally have no context for this and I'm crying wtf this is beautiful

Fcuk me dude this animatic so fucking great this is so lovely. I love your expressions and your designs for Tres Boys! I really like that the Wonderland Liches have no pupils I think that was a sick-looking detail! Also the shot zooming out from Julias face was really nicely done and this is very cool! I could gush forever but when it comes down just!! This is awesome!!!

this is always in my recommended and i always click on it and i ALWAYS cry when julia comes up

This made me cry and laugh at the same time. Marvelous.

This is such a good scene and you nailed everyone's expressions! I really loved your design for the liches.

The sound of my heart breaking real quick. but goddamn i love your taako design

I had thought the line was "and then loot him for jewelry!" which, while in character, felt a bit like they were making a bit too much light of the situation at the moment. However, now knowing that it's for *Julia* instead of for *jewelry*, this line feels really poignant. In addition, I like the scene where the fire comes out of the Umbra Staff.

i love how dedicated taako and merle are to helping magnus. it hurts my hEART

"And ours begins" What great fucking friends

Great animation. I really don't know how to feel about some things in TAZ though. The comedy is great, but the dramatic moments could often stand on their own. I can totally see the Balance tale being either totally comedic or more gravelly drama, and somehow as a podcast it works with both going on, but a part of me wants to see the vanilla story without the background rolls and comedic interjections. The story and characters, hnng. So yeah, great animation, you brought this to the forefront of my mind

It would be sooooo fucked up if Griffin split up the party during an adventure, and Magnus (who's separated from Taako and Merle) meets Governor Kaylan and becomes friends with him.

my ONLY complaint with taz is that we never got to see this come to fruition. it is the only plot point tht wasn’t neatly wrapped up at the end. Governor Kalen is still out there and that thought upsets me daily. (but this animatic is absolutely fantastic!! i love the expressions and designs especially omg everything is so cute but also really emotional and it’s so good)

Great animation! Would like to see more. A thought about this plot point: it would've made more sense and been way more interesting if Magnus's quest for vengeance didn't end after forgetting. On the contrary, he would be on a never ending quest for vengeance because he would be plagued with a great desire for revenge that he would never be able to satisfy. He would always be searching for the person responsible for his wife's death, but would never even able to figure out who it was.

Your Julia is perfect. I didn't even realize that this was how I was imagining her but every depiction I've seen hasn't felt quite right until this one. I love this.

"And then loot him for Julia" 😂😂 Taako ain't shit and I love him for it

I remember I thought they were going to make him forget Julia. That would be so much worse.

I'm gonna cry.

Even With all the goofs and stuff, I love how solid the friendship between them is portrayed

I'm not crying you're crying

I really like this moment because I feel like it shows how Magnus forgetting this thing all alone would have been horrible and weighty, but Magnus forgetting it with friends who he knows are there to support him made the whole choice very very easy; he has a life to get on living, and his past is not what defines him, his present and his future with the people around him right there and then is what defines him

Wait a sec, if Magnus is now in a pre wonderland body, does he remember now?

I just started sobbing actually when you drew the scene of Taako and Merle killing Kalen just - i jsut started crying

That flash forward to them finding Kalen gives me chills every time.

I am subscribing to you specifically because of this animatic. Excellent, EXCELLENT work.

beautiful moment in the story and you brought it to life here; I absolutely love it. great job!

this is incredible!!

gosh this is so good!! the expressions and mannerisms are so... fitting and dynamic and just... awesome! great job dang!

This made me cry oh my god!! this scene is so beautiful in a way. love your animation of it.

this is amazing!!! I love it, the expressions and everytging is so perfect!

Those animations are amazing. That back round music makes it.

I knew nothing about TAZ when I first watched this video. I was watching MBMBaM animations and ended up watching TAZ animatics without really realizing what they were. It wasn’t until I got to this one that I noticed they were telling an actual story, one that drove fans to animate not only the funny bits, but also gripping, dramatic moments like this one. I was suddenly overcome by the sense I’d found a spoiler for this story that I hadn’t known existed before seeing this scene, and I knew I had to download the podcast and listen to it for myself. In hindsight, it’s amazing how captivating this scene is even if you aren’t familiar with the story, and how much more amazing it is when you are. Listening to TAZ has been a wonderful experience, and I want to thank the maker of this animation for inadvertently introducing me to it. You did an A+ job with this video.

This was a very beautiful scene...and you did it justice with this animation~ Wonderful Job~!

this is so gorgeous! I love it!

This is fantastic!!

This was so beautifully done that I had to go back and watch it again. I love the little touches, like the snippet of Magnus crying at Raven's Roost, the way Taako marches over to Magnus to touch his shoulder... perfection.

Fucking End My LIFE I'm literally crying

omg this is so good!

this is amazing...... this is such a good scene and you captured it perfectly this is now one of my fav taz vids :'))

i was so sad when i first heard this, the way you make it is so eerie i love it

Your character designs are amazing! And I love the flashbacks and flashforward, amazing job!

“And ours BEGINS.” Was so AGRESSOVE and I love it

This was wonderful,, this scene breaks my heart

god this makes me cry every single time i listen to it and now i have STUNNING VISUALS PLS IM NO STRONG ENOUGH

this was sooooo good!!! the emotion in the actions was amazing. I loved how taako put his arm on merle's head, the best thing

I do love that Griffin decided again in this moment that he’s out here to make a good story, not a needlessly tragic one

I really like how you drew them all, especially Merle!

This was absolutely perfect.

oh my god this was so good and I'm so emotional now! ! your designs are amazing!

This is so fantastic. So so so fantastic.

love the podcast, love your video, love it all.

Merle: I hate these liches Me: same

I've never watched The Adventure Zone and I'm not quite sure how I got here, but the emotions you were able to express with these characters made me actually care about them. Wonderful job

I love your art. And I love this scene

This by far my favorite animatic for Wonderland. It's so beautiful, and actually made me cry D:

So good!! Well done 😊

Thank you for this, it's a really sweet moment brought to life though your art. I really appreciate you taking the time to make this.

you did such a GOOD JOBB omg i love it

This was really really lovely. Your expressions are so nice, especially for Taako. Thanks for sharing. :)

This made me cry all over again 🥺

this is so great!!! love it! your art is cute!!!

“And ours begins!”

There's so much to love here. Your flashback to Magnus weeping in the ruins of Raven's Roost KILLED ME. You blended the flashbacks, imaginary scenarios and what was actually happening so well. Taako's physical body language with Magnus when they talk. This is awesome.

Ooooh, I love how you shifted to them finding Kalen midscene!

the little flash to them in the future is so fucking important this animatic is so goddamn gorgeous

I like to imagine, some years after magnus’s death, a still pretty young tasko and merle are out together once again, somehwere in the worl, in some bar, when they walk up to an old old man, who they tap gently on the shoulder. As he turns and says “what?” Merle holds the Xtreme teen bible, taako points the umbra staff, and say “for julia” as the most powerful spells they know pierce through him and leave him dead where he stood, because they would never forget Magnus

I love your design for the liches!!!

I liked this a bunch!!!! the way you do eyebrows is great. ..... good job

your art style is so perfect, oh my goodness

aww Magnus looking more like a kid in this one is cute
