I've watched so many different versions of this, but this just my favorite one by far. Like I dunno if it's because of the faces, or the fact Merle as the "narrator", or because of how in character it would be for Taako or Lup to break a pool table or shitting on a laptop. Like damn, thank you m'dude

taako takes pride in his work. I LOVED THIS

Here's a long ass comment of me just commenting on every single thing cause it's the closest I'll ever get to fully expressing my absolute love for this 0:18 Taako popping in just to insult Leon is perfect 0:20 Leon is married to the book,,, why am I not surprised 0:30 Awe, Brad, you cutie 0:36 MOM, HOLY FUCK 0:36 Also, loving how Taako and Merle are spending time together with a casual nice game of cards 0:41 and that they immediately literary drop the game to go do something stupid and reckless. These chaotic boys are so aboard Magnus' plan. 0:44 All the minor character interactions here are so good,,,, 0:47 God, I love this family of dorks. 0:50 God, I love Lucretia. 0:52 GHGFVHGFV, I'M DYING, why does this fit them so well,,, 0:55 I love that Merle is narrating in this environment like he's got a camera man following him (which, what if he does) 1:02 God, this Lup and Merle interaction is great. Also, Lulu is so smily, I love her so much,,, 1:12 she's amazing 1:17 oh no 1:18 Taako, no 1:19 TaaKO, NO 1:21 3 things: 1. Loving Taako just walking away from the crime scene, innocently whistling 2. Magnus and Carey being best buds - YES 3. Still loving how Merle looks directly at the camera and continues narrating 1:32 I love that Merle's actually slowly blacking out while he's talking 1:37 Idk why, but the way how Luce leans down and puts her hands on Merle's shoulders as she worriedly tells him about the police is so familial and nice and I just love it all so much,,, 1:46 never change Merle 1:48 everyone staring at Merle in surprise is perfect and also a big mood 1:48 also, rewatching this for the 5th time, I finally noticed Davenport is facepalming . This space captain is so done with his family being reckless lovable shits. Also, how Taako is leaning into the room to also stare at Merle is also great. 1:51 yes,, just.... *inhale* YES,,,,,, 1:52 Poor Davenport feeling peer pressured to join in... jk, he's probably enjoying this deep down 1:56 yeah, like, ????? 2:00 these 3 frames are the definition of perfection 2:02 Barry is a cute and reckless drunk and I love him and am very proud of him 2:03 and Lup absolutely is as well 2:05 GOD, this is so fucking cute,,,, that little blush and smile,, 2:05 also, just realised Lup is telling that to Barry. She's complimenting him. God, how are you so good at making these pure character interactions,,, 2:08 Pringles, how dare 2:09 ok, but the fact that Pringles has actually been in jail only makes this even funnier 2:12 I. Love. Lucretia. 2:15 I. Fuckingggggg LOVE. Lucretia. Also, same as Davenport, she is so done with these dorks 2:19 WHOOP, surprise Rosswell, love them 2:23 Yup, just walking away from that shit, good on you Luce 2:23 also, there is like, so much stuff going on here, and I'm loaf all of it: Magnus' satanic expression, Pringles' look of anxiety, Taako burning a spell on fighting with Carey and Killian who look appropriately terrified, Blupjeans being happy dancing dorks in love, and Garfield just recording all of this - it's all so fucking great 2:25 Davenport looking at Magnus worriedly and Merle's blank "shit" are such moods. Also, loving that Roswell is just,, glaring at them all dissapointedly 2:27 _oh my god,,,,_ they're trying their best, y'all 2:29 _druuuuugs~_ 2:33 Merle's accusatory glare is great 2:34 Roswell looks borderline traumatised and I don't blame them, cause honestly, same. 2:44 Roswell's lip (beak?) movements are perfect 2:48 ;;;;;good,,,,,,,, hfbyvgvghvgbv 2:50 Has Magnus even been in jail? Lol, I don't remember, but either way, this is great 2:55 I absolutely LOVE that they just, very quickly come up with an escape plan and work together,, Dav'port is such a captain still 2:56 I love this cooperative family. Also, Luce's chill thumb up and Berry's nervousness are perfect. They're all so in character, what the heck,,, 2:56 Yay for teamwork!!! 2:58 why is that Merle's needing a second to finish his drink before he runs from the police is so in character,,, also, Taako whooping is great 3:00 Luce's so appropriately done, I love it 3:01 oh my god,,, 3:02 Taako and Magnus' expressions are such moods 3:12 Merle's finally using his goddamn character voice,, in the worst possible moment and situation 3:15 the fact that he has a bandaged head suggests he climbed the fence and then got a concussion from falling off of it and idk why, but that is such a big mood,,, (probably cause I'm just as unathletic and absolutely would hurt myself climbing a fence) 3:16 aw, Barry being there to take care of him is so pure and good 3:18 cuties,,, 3:28 Okay, but this reminds me that not only is Lucretia one of the people that were at the party and that she's a badass grandma that also probably knits warm sweaters while saying stuff like "hot digitty shit" but she's also the director of an entire organisation and,,,, I don't really have anything to add, I just love her so much it's absurd 3:32 I also love Brad, such a helpful adorable bean 3:46 I love that while Lup looks sheepish and guilty, Taako is absolutely not regretting what he did and takes full pride in being a disgusting shitting-on-computers boy 3:52 "old book" gfbhvtvhr 3:56 Leon's been through so much shit since the THB arrived and somehow that makes me feel both bad for him and absolutely delighted 4:04 Merle's mind literary loading is a perfect visual 4:12 good question,, 4:18 you can practically see Merle's thoughts screaming at him "are you sure?" and I'm living for it 4:25 his thoughtful pose and expression are so endearing 4:33 awe, my defective cleric dad and existential crisis dad are having fun playing playing a nostalgic game of chess, how amazing 4:37 Merle u gay 4:42 wait for it 4:43 and here comes the suspicion and horror 4:50 ahhh, all of those photos are so good, such good wedding Carey and Killian and Birthday Ango!! Also, is that our vore boy Griffin or am I confusion? 4:56 John, why,,,, 5:03 Mood, Merle. Mood. 5:08 Also, his expression is perfect. 5:17 Goddamn it, John.

Aaaaa this is amazinggg, I thought I was sick of animatics using this audio cause they were always pretty repetitive and boring, but you added so many new things and little details, like how merle narrates while it's happening around him or Lup looking sheepish and Taako absolutely proud in the bg when Brad revealed them, or the little character interactions like carey and magnus talking on the couch or Lucy putting her hands on Merle's shoulders as she talked to him to steady him or how Lup gave Barry proud kisses cause he sweared on the police, or just how sometimes the audio was fitted to other characters dialouge instead of Merle's, for example, it was Lucretia who explained that the police were actually there, and just,,,,, hhhhvhbgbjbgbh I could rant about this endlessly, this is so fucking good, definitely the best animation I've seen using this audio yet.

DUDE AND ROBBIE YELLING THE "IVE SERVED MY NICKEL YOU COME AND T A K E ME"

It's sooooo much more hilarious with the collector being John oh my god, the parallels. this is gold.

This is a gift and I fucking love you. Merle being the main character was cool, the fans don't give him enough love.

oh my goD JOHN

When merle looked scared at the "took me into his bedroom" and then relieved at the "and into a sideroom off of his bedroom" i CHOKED

everything about this? genius. Merle as Mulaney? inspired. Merle narrating the story within the story as we're walked through it? brilliant. how perfectly you nailed all the characters for every little aspect of this story? unbelievable. all of this. i love it.

Merle’s probably thinking, “Wow. It’s going to take a pretty strong Zone of Truth to fix this.”

Ya know, I thought I was kinda sick of this clip, 'cause I've seen it so many times, but nope. This was an absolute riot. Bravo

i would Die for your brad tbh. i mean i'd die for brad in general but he's adORABLE. your klaarg? his lil face? i want to hug this hugbear. your killian? she can come break my spine anyday. your roswell? good. round. friend-shaped. not exactly optimal for cuddling but i'm willing to take a risk. your avi? absolute cutie! what a beautiful boy! this is the single most in character thing i've ever seen? pringles being the guy who's already been to jail? davenport facepalming in the background as merle starts yelling? lucretia giving brad a piece of her mind about throwing a party despite the fact that she WAS at the party? pringles just carrying a bong in his pocket? davenport coming up with an escape plan? Proud Girlfriend lup smooching her Rebellious Boyfriend barry? lup looking sheepish while taako is super proud of himself? magnus being ango's father? concerned barry sitting by merle's bed? the slight implication that merle hurt his head because someone tossed him over the fence? JOHN AS ALEX? merle's face of sudden realisation at "never a good thing to have"? i appreciate roswell putting the walkie talkie up to their bird face so much you wouldn't understand

This is cannon and you can't tell me otherwise

merle definitely did the whisky-or-perfume one too.

one factual inaccuracy-pringles is a halfling. it would’ve made that scene 10x better

This is so PERFECT. I love all the details and everyone's expressions, they're so perfect. I was really surprised at first, because I thought for sure it was going to be Taako who stole the photos, but having it be John instead was SO PERFECT. Amazing job on this whole animatic! I couldn't stop laughing the whole time.

oh my god the voice actually sounds like young merle

I love the idea of Lucretia... Participating. At all. It's hilarious omf this is perfect.

Amazing animatic. Magnus' bay is ango and I've never been happier

I have seen so many animatics of this, because it is beautiful, and even though I don't know the universe these characters are from, I can hands down say this is the best I've seen. The storyboarding is brilliant, and it makes the most out of one picture to the next, like the eyeball movement. It made this animatic incredibly fun and engaging(?) To watch, and yeah, I found myself laughing at parts I haven't in a while (because I've seen it so many times) simply because of the spin you put on it. This is amazing!!!

Davenport giving Merle a look and telling him to leave is honestly a cute touch and this whole thing, poses, and details ​is so great.

I love how it was Lup and Taako who did the wildest shit

So, I've seen this video animated lot of times. I've seen an overwatch animation of this, and the first time I heard this was when I watched a Persona 5 animation for this (which was amazing). I am so glad that you decided to do an Adventure Zone animation for this. Thank you so much!

"Someone broke the pool table." >Lup looking nervous "Someone took a shit on my dad's computer." >Taako looking proud as hell

PRINGLESSSSS!!!! NICE CALLBACK REFERENCE TO ROBBIE he doesn't get enough cameo love in animatics, this whole thing is awesome I love how you draw Lup and Taako

dat blush tho hehe

0:42 THE CARDS FALLING OUT OF TAAKOS SHIRT I LITERALLY HAD TO PAUSE THE VID BC I STARTED LAUGHING SO HARD SJJSJDJDJD

Najsigt, this is, by far, the greatest animation I’ve ever seen of this audio. I’m always looking forward to your next post and I have to say, there has never been any disappointment at all. Your work inspires me all the time actually. Thank you for all of what you do, it always brightens my day :)

This two things blends so perfect together

Magnus with the picture of angus, and Roswell as the police is the absolute best thing ever

this is the single funniest thing i have ever seen oh my GOD i love all of your art and animations but this is.... spectacular

3:47 the duality of the twins

Magnus screamin “scatter!!” Is the funniest part to me

This is so excellent. Every time I watch this I notice a new detail and it’s just all so smart and carefully put together. Everything fits perfectly and it makes me smile so much.

The cinematic appeal of this is phenomenal. Where merle is on and off telling the story as it happens is amazing

The highlight of this is when Lup flames the wall and Magnus fucking BURSTS thru it. Excellent animatic, so funny

having the taaco twins be the kid who broke the pool table and the kid who shat on the computer was a brilliant decision

oh I’m going so fUCKONG FERAL this is AMAZING FHGJGHHHJO

Oh my god. Pringles as the delinquent.

The eyepatch switches sides and disappeared and I can’t tell if it’s intentional or not but I love it

HE AND HIS WIFE

this gives me so much life oh my god thank you i didnt know i needed it until now

*wakes up in a cold sweat two years after finding this video* muh... merlaney

Goddamn every fandom needs one rendition of this bit and I'm glad taz's version comes from my favorite taz animator. It's just always a good time!

"someone broke the pool table" Lup looking pretty nervous "somone took a shit on my dads computer" Taako is PROUD

LEONS WIFE IS THE GATCHAPON BOOK IM DEAD

This is so unique and wonderful compared to the other animatics of this bit!!! I love it so much ♡

Lucretia had to do it to ‘em

The short frame of taako acting innocent with the coin is my favorite thing

i near DIED when pringles entered

Ahhh holy shit, your art style is so great, it's really expressive and flows super well

this is still to date one of the funniest things i've ever seen

jesus christ the expressions are perfect

The party scenes are like playing where’s Waldo with all the various taz characters

Just a reminder that Merle has over 2000 party points

MERLES EXPRESSIONS ARE SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love this so much this is fantastic!!!!!! great job again your art style is amazing!!!!

*KRAVITZ YOU ARE THE POLICE*

THIS IS THE BEST RENDITION OF THIS SKIT BY FARYOU DID IT, YOU WON BEST SKIT ANIMATIC

So you see how Merle earned all those Party Points... Also John Hunger was the best choice for "Alex"

Brad Bradson looks EXACTLY as I imagined him. Well done.

thank u my lord and savior

Every single thing, every single character, every single frame, is absolute perfection

so no joke, i think this is now in my top 3 fav taz animatics because good god this is so f/cking goood

I love that Taako and Lup are the ones causing the trouble at the the party

Actually though I would have loved for someone else to be the narrator of this story only for Merele to be the one to yell *"SCATTER"*

Brad bradson being Leon's kid is perfect

0:27. Look at this dude

I dont know why but making Merle the main voice of this was LITERALLY the funniest choice you could make. Ffs. Comedy gold.

god this is so in character

3:45 FUCKIN LUP AND TAAKO I'M WHEEZING

JOHNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!

"Because it's the one thing you can't replace" I think he is going to be serial killer

"because that's what we did back then" hits different during quarantine

The best version I've seen so far

everything abt this is amazing!! the character designs, expressions, it’s all so good!!

I really love this combination of two things I greatly enjoy: John Mulany and The Adventure Zone. Great Job!

I consistently love all your designs!!! everything about this video is wonderful!

I feel like pan would be proud of Merle for causing such a ruckus.

This is absolutely stunning

Most people who animate this bit I've seen dont really do much with it but animate what's being said but you managed to fit so much personality from the podcast in there!
