And now some minor explanations and tidbits about some scenes for these: 1. 00:26 - In my Headcanon, Crowley more than once looked at the angels in Eden when they couldn't see them. In the series scene when they talk on Eden's Wall, Crowley acts as if he is seeing Fell for the first time since he was executed from Heaven. That's because he would never admit to voyeurism; 2. 00:34 - I felt pure satisfaction when I was able to include Aziraphale's apology dance in the animatic; 3. 1:59 - For people who are not very familiar with the universe: This scene refers to the one from the 20th century when, after Fell's performance, they sit and talk about different shades of gray in the context of good and evil. Moments later, Aziraphale is shown in the Animatic trying to wipe a light gray stain from his heart. It was a wink to the previous scene and showed how much Aziraphale was still afraid of crossing the line and entering "their" side; 4. 2:25 - Here I would like to clarify the circumstances of the scene. It shows Crowley reading in a bookstore. (there is no background there, but it can be inferred from Fell's small "attributes", and besides, we know well that Crowley doesn't read or own books) The wine stain on Aziraphale's property makes him angry, he wants his friend's belongings were intact; 5. 2:32 - (Although the comment applies to the entire animatic) Stills show the passage of time and how much time has passed since Fell returned to Heaven. The same can be seen in Crowley's growing hair (In the last scene, he has it really long. Here, I emphasize as the author, it takes several years to get his hair to this length! As for the last frame of the bookstore, it turns out that she is neither Aziraphale nor Crowley or Muriel. Moreover, at 2:44 you can see that it is already sold. Well... nothing lasts forever; 6. The scene from 2:37 is so interesting that initially I had different ideas for it (yes, plural). At the very beginning, it was supposed to be a minor quarrel with our beloved Metatron. Ultimately, I decided that in such a situation, a simple quarrel was not enough. I changed the concept 180 degrees and re-arranged the entire scenario in which Fell was to be cast down as a demon. In fact, even I drew it, but the scene turned out to be so fast and chaotic that I had to give it up because even I, as the creator, couldn't understand what was on the screen. Unfortunately, the time of the song and rhythm was too limiting. I compromised, so I showed the biblical form of Aziraphale to add spice to the scene. I explained to myself that in such a case, Metatron might capitulate, get scared and decide that this form of Fell is too powerful, so he let him go without any major arguments. Am I satisfied with this scenario? No... not entirely, but sometimes you need to shorten something for better reception 7. Ok, let's move on to the finale. Why the sad ending? Why didn't Crowley just take his beloved angel in? Honestly? My answer is not clear. I have a few theories myself and I could just write them down BUT I leave it to your own interpretation. You can share your own assumptions, I will be happy to read everything and answer whether I have thought about such an option.

7. My assumption is that it's not a "hard" rejection. But Crowley was deeply wounded and needs time to heal. Aziraphale didn't reciprocate the kiss the first time because of his own internal struggles (that I hope he got to work on while in Heaven). Crowley didn't reciprocate the kiss the second time because he too has his own internal struggles. Crowley's "I forgive you" is not out of spite, but rather a subconscious reaction. He really forgives Aziraphale for all the pain he felt, as he always would do. But he needs time. This time, it is Aziraphale who's going too fast. Eventually they'll both catch up and be on the same page and when that happens, their relationship will start anew. This is a really beautiful animatic and I love your style~ And I find it really interesting to read your ideas, so thank you for writing them down

@@VonKellcsiis This theory is the most logical when it comes to their happy ending together. I've seen a lot of comics and fanart where Crowley and Aziraphale just hugged or kissed each other right after breaking their long separation, forgiving each other everything. These are beautiful scenes, but in reality it would be difficult to achieve something like this. Thank you for sharing your opinion ❤

@@VonKellcsiis I agree. Maggie and Nina nailed it with their lack of communication. This literally happened because they both haven’t really learned how to talk to each other properly. Crowley misinterpreted what Aziraphale meant. He does need him and he wanted him to come with him to see the old Crowley. The one he met when they were both angels had this spark in his eyes and that’s gone now. He doesn’t understand that Crowley does not want to go back to that and that he does not need them. He still believes heaven should be a place of good and he intends on fixing it for Crowley. It needs to be good enough for him and for the world. Crowley believes that Aziraphale will only want to be with if he changes back to an Angel and he doesn’t want and shouldn’t have to change. He knows way more than Aziraphale and that’s his own fault. He never told him what Gabriel said about shutting his stupid mouth and die, he never told him what he saw in heaven, and he enables the belief at times. “Nothing lasts forever.” Was Aziraphale saying how he would give up his life on Earth, restaurants, traveling, his bookshop and everything else to make things better and be with Crowley. Meanwhile Crowley heard how what they had wouldn’t last forever. “I forgive you.” As much as that kiss made me scream and how much I liked it I can’t deny it was wrong of Crowley. He meant to show him exactly what he felt, an attempt at convincing Aziraphale to stay with him, and perhaps a goodbye. Aziraphale both loved and hated the kiss. He wanted it but saw it as Crowley tempting him and I can’t deny that I understand where he was coming from. He wanted the first kiss to be special maybe at the picnic they talked about in season 1. Something that was build up to. Even if it wasn’t Crowley’s intentions it must have hurt him. It was raw, desperate, and unclear. And to think all of this could have been avoided if they sat down and had a real conversation. I blame The Metatron an Neil Gaiman. 😤

Ok im ok with the sad ending like im still crying but first off give azi taste of his own medicine also ive been saying that if azi shows up out of the blue and just thinks crowley will take him back with barely any effort and crowley does crowley would have had no character development none and thats why the break up had to happen it gives them room for the character development they need i honestly believe crowley should be petty and not forgive azi for a while in the next season before being like ok and this gives azi the chance to learn that heaven is toxic and deal with his religious trauma id like it if crowley only agrees to talk to him next season just to stop the second coming because i think the dont bother was him understanding that he cant help azi he will never be able to help azi learn and azi is going to have to find out himself and when he agrees azi who is now ready and sad under the circumstance crowley falls back in love watching azi and all the little things even though hes still enraged and i do believe it will end on good terms but not before crowley breaks azis heart first

AGREED OML IT BROKE MY HEART

In my head the reason why Crowley didn't take Aziraphale back is bc its been YEARS. He has suffered and waited and hoped for so long... but then he couldn't anymore. He sold the bookshop, he moved on with his life, the bleeding wound where Aziraphale was has scarred over. Crowley has accepted that Aziraphale is not coming back, and then he does. Crowley isn't going to forget what happened, he can't. Aziraphale coming back is shoving all the progress he made back in his face, telling him that it was all pointless because he came back. That everything can be alright again, the way it was before. But Crowley has changed and cannot accept that. Cannot forget that. Him saying "I forgive you", is him throwing back Aziraphale's own words back in his face. It's petty, but it's only fair that Aziraphale hurts the way that Crowley hurt. (That is, in Crowley's POV.) That's my opinion at least. Regardless I want to say that this animation is gorgeous. It clearly took a long time to make, the art style is so good! And I love the character designs for them. Crowley's depression era HURTS lol. This is just, AMAZING. Thank you for putting this into the world.

Really, that was one of my main "theories" for the ending of this animatic. But never in my life would I have put it like that (I mean, I wouldn't have put it that well). The only thing that bothered me about all this was the fact that a few years on the scale of their long life is like the snap of a finger. But after all, why should Crowley suffer for decades because of this? Thank you for your comment, it made me smile so much

@@ksanax_art I'm glad that I was able to word it well! I think that Crowley suffered so much BC Aziraphale wasn't there. Even when they were apart they were still on Earth/still friendly or at least there was hope for reconciliation. But Arizaphale rejected Crowley. 6000+ years of knowing each other, yearning... I think he took it hard. I imagine he does a LOT of sleeping, trying to forget that they could have been an "us". I think he tries to move on relatively quick, probably on the advice of Maggie and Nina(or some self-help books). I don't think he's over it though :). Thanks for replying!

totally agreed with this theories, but if i might've still wanting the happy/ a slight good ending, it could have been because how sudden aziraphale asking him ''to come back be the way the used to be" , i mean , after being basically neglected for idk, year's, ofc anyone will have a hard time to accept someone there was once in their live. but maybe, just maybe , I'll took some time to win him over, they have been in love for millennia, if it's took aziraphale 1000 more years to earn that trust and love, i think he will do it. love win y'all.

Of all the animations i saw these last weeks, this one, this one hurted me the most. The moment when Crowley said "i forgive you".... Man, i nearly cried. Congratulations for the great work!!! 😍💔😭

The switching of hands was so creative. Showing Crowley's Eyes past the glasses as well was so interesting. The aftermath of both sides and how they must have felt and journeys to find the truth for themselves with the guilt and betrayal. Very well done.

OH, I KNEW SOMEONE AT SOME POINT WAS GOING TO MAKE THIS BUT YOU LITERALLY HAD TO CHOOSE THE MOST PAINFUL SONG FOR THESE TWO AND MAKE IT EVEN MORE PAINFUL

This is so good that ending is going to make me HURL that's so painful my HEART AHHHHH

I am absolutely delighted!!!!!! In just a few minutes, the author inserted so many references and symbolism here that it all feels like a complete integral story! This is incredible, a tremendous amount of work has been done, all laurels to the author. 💓❤‍🔥💥

THIS IS SOSOOSOOS SO BEAUTIFUL TEARING UP i love this a lot :-( the ending hurt so bad but a small part of me hopes crowley doesnt forgive aziraphale at first. just so he realizes what hes taken for granted and how crowley had been by his side for so long

Crowley at the end really said “uno reverse” but holy crap this is amazing I’m literally about to sob!

ok, I have something to say about this firstly, OMGI LOVE IT, IS PERFECT, AZIRAPHALE RELAIZING HEAVEN IS NOT BETTER AND JUST QUITS, RUNNING BACK TO CROWLEY, AND CROWLEY JUST TRYING TO MOVE ON AND HEAL IS OMG YES so much feeling into this

HOLY COW THIS IS AMAZING? I’m actually gonna sob my eyes out because of this

THIS IS INCREDIBLE. Everything about this animatic is so well thought and im a such a fan of your artstyle, its so pretty. Ngl the ending physically ended me, not sure im going to recover from this, WELL DONE

My GOD. I love how you put the meanings of some scenes, and i had been watching your Channel for a while (because i do like ToH too) and i have to say that you improved a lot!!! Also, i like the idea of Crowley not forgiving Aziraphel after all the time that had been past (that i like it doesnt mean It doesnt cause me PAIN) because It would be so fast and he (Azi) has to win his forgiveness.

Me slowly getting overly excited and happy about getting a happy ending after season 2. Me reaching the end of this video...😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 DAMN YOU for breaking my heart all over again. But OML this was beautiful!😍

the way you originally had aziraphale be pure white and crowley be pure black but then they fade to very light/very dark grey at 2:01 HURT SO BAD- YOURE SO EVIL YET GENIUS FOR THAT 😭😭😭

For some reason i was so confident this would be a happy ending...silly me😅 oh well i needed a good cry anyway. this animatic is so BEAUTIFULLY DONE! love it

Accidentally fell down a rabbit hole of good omens animatics and stumbled upon this masterpiece. Damn, I was not wanting to cry today yet here we are

Пожалуйста, это так прекрасно, прошу продолжение я не могу смириться с такой концовкой

I really love all the "biblically accurate" Aziraphale fan art I've seen, but those things with all the eyes are Thrones, the ones with all the heads are Cherubim, and the ones with all the wings are Seraphim. Then again, most charts I've seen have Principalities outranking Archangels, so "biblical accuracy" shouldn't stand in the way of rad af fan art.

Ya lo estaba superando 😭

MY HEART

It did make me cry and all, but I LOVE THE SAD ENDING I don't think that Crowley will accept Aziraphale back as if nothing happened; they might need a bit more time, like Maggie and Nina, but even if they don't get back together in the end their decision still fits with their characters Your animatic not only shows that, beautifully, but also gives us a bit of variety. Don't get me wrong, I love the good endings, but when they're well executed THE BAD ENDINGS ARE MWAH, LIKE SGWHYABAYWJ Amé tu animatic y sinceramente te voy a tomar como modelo a seguir (si me lo permitís, claro)

me quieres hacer llorar verdad ??? , justo ahora acabo de ver como miles de veces la ultima escena , y ahora esto ;-; , mi corazon de pollo ya no puede mas

You're Pratchett, aren't you? Because only you and Gaiman could do so well and hurt so much to the point of tears

THIS RIPPED MY HEART OUT, IM ACTUALLY IN TEARS. i dont think ive ever cried over an animatic before. and the song! why does it fit so perfectly! the art and animation is also so good wowowoow so well done UGH SO GOOD

Me: Aaw, happy ending :)) Narrator: but it was a lie Me: :((

the line up of the "im sorry" lyric with "i forgive you" was CRUEL

I was confused because my phone just started to return to the homesceen and I realized it was because a tear drop fell on it

Call me a masochist, this is so good, makes my heart sting the "I forgive you" is such a good way to express that the gap is already too grand to cross. It was a mistake with consequences, and a gesture of rejecting shared between two of them was a sharp reminder that sometimes, it's over for real all over scrumptious

I'm very glad you ended it the way you did! I've been thinking about how they would handle the reunion in S3 and (hopefully not permanently) I was thinking of how I really don't want Crowley to forgive him. I feel it would be good for them to work it out on screen and have them finally communicate lmao.

Ive never cried to good omens animation, not once but oh boy this one. This one made me sob so much that I dont think ill recover from it. Its so beautiful and i absolutly love it, but i swear my next therapy session is gonna be about this animation. Im so glad that neil said that the ending is gonna be happy one, but deep down Im so scared that this is the way its gonna actually end, and if so, Im srs gonna commit crime. we cant let neil see this or he'll destroy our hearts. your art is so beautiful and amazing!

I CANT HAVE ONE GOOD DAY W GOOD OMEN FANS (This was ridiculously well made, one of my new favorite animatics. The ending made me cry. THANK YOU.)

BAWLING RN THIS IS SO GORGEOUS AND PAINFUL WTFFFF

i can totally imagine this happening and crowley being like at the end "i dont want want to hurt you again" BUT IN TURN IS JUST HURTING HIM MORE IM SOBBING

Me when the two grown men have angst: hehehe yes YES

honestly? I love the ending of this animatic. like, I really want them to be back together again at the end of season 3, but I also think it would be satisfactory for Crowley to do something like that at least ONCE before they reconcile. Like, poor boy has suffered so much for that angel. This is amazing.

This tore out my heart, healed it for a split second only to tear it out all over again, thank you.

I'm usually exaggerating when I comment that an animatic made me cry but right now I have actual tears on my face, haha ow, thank you

THE ENDING BROKE ME HOLY FUCK (really incredible animatic tho i absolutely loved it)

THE DIFFERENT CUPS OVER THE AGES... it destroyed me

This animatic is AMAZING, but I swear if season 3 does this, I’m gonna cry…

PLEASE I JUST WATCHED EPISODE 6 YESTERDAY I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR MORE PAIN--beautiful. incredible. my heart is shattered. 5 stars.

Oh my God, I'm roaring over these animatics again. The end killed me and trampled on my heart, bro, you can safely compete with Neil Gaiman in glassiness. The animation is incredible! Thank you for the work! ❤

okay screw you you broke my heart now pay my therapy bills. /nm no seriously every single two birds animatic on those two never fails to make me cry

The way I gasped at the end! I think that was an incredible ending. I loved so many things about your animatic, i think i enjoyed seeing "post-divorce" Crowley and how he changes the most! Well done on this entire project, what a beautiful thing you made!

im not crying ur crying (this is so good omg)

THE WAY HE BROKE DOWN IN SILNECE FUCK OFF IM CRYING

Aziraphale having a panic attack… poor fellow, precious fellows

BRUH IM SOBBING AT THE ENDING THAT SHIP REALLY WENT DOWN LIKE A LEAD BALLOON (Also, the magic words to make your relationship disappear is “I forgive you” if that wasn’t obvious) 😭

You did not need to target me like this. I am supposed to be studying but I can’t anymore after seeing that. What am I supposed to do with my train wreck of emotions that this beautiful, beloved, tragic animatic shoved me into?

This is the worst ending could ever possibly ever happens, it's Aziraphale leaving the bookshop that he kept for tens of years for sale, him leaving Crowley alone again on Earth, suffering, waiting, hoping that a miracle would show up and make the angle he spent 6000 years with to come home , just to help him recover the fragile, comfortable zone he made for "our"self. It really hurts to see the future that might be coming to the series, but I hope we all can be there for it, even if it cuts deeply and made a hole in The Ineffables we are.

it's interesting to me how crowley and aziraphale, respectively, saying "come on!" and "i'm tired" at 00:58 of course works so well, but how it would also work the other way - where aziraphale wants crowley to join him but crowley is tired of choosing sides.

YOURE SCARING ME WITH THIS OMG SEASON THREE BETTER NOT PULL THIS anyways wonderful animatic i screamed at the ending

YOU ARE PAYING MY THERAPY (Aside, I LOVE THE WAY YOU ANIMATE AND DRAW AND EXPRESS FEELING IT'S JUST AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)

This is so heartbreaking.. these two have filled up my heart and have shattered it into pieces Anyways, amazing art style!! Crowley and Aziraphale look so good in your art style!

NO NOT THIS FRICKING SONG AGAIN 😭 This is amazingly gorgeous ! So sad and bittersweet. I definitely believe this is not the end for them ; they need time to heal, to get in touch with their emotions and process everything. But, above all, they 👏need 👏 to 👏 TALK 👏

just so you know I'm about to cry. Have a nice day and your animation is amazing.

I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW ANGRY I AM AT YOU.

OMG THAT MADE ME CRY YOU ARE SO TALNTED HOW YOU CONTINUED THE STORY ITS SO BEAUTIFULL
