Halo the fall of reach the animated series
I don't own any of the material used here this is only meant to be a work of appreciation to the material it is using.
"Why do you always jump? One of these days you're going to land on something as stubborn as you are, I don't do bits and pieces." Continues to jump out of everything haha
Sorry to correct you on sonething but its "AND i dont do bits and pieces".
Sorry again
Jumping out of thing is fun.
I've always liked that interpretation of Halsey acting as the surrogate mother to all the Spartans but showing the most effection to John, in particular, has been the most heartbreaking. She took away John's childhood, future, and family to create the perfect hero to save their species. Over the course of the war, John lost comrades and people he genuinely cared for. Halsey lost her distant ex-husband Keyes to a gruesome death by the Flood and then her estranged daughter Miranda was taken by a conflict that has left her marred and marked as a monster. The only person that understands her and has a semblance of a connection to her even if it is hinted with animosity, is John. He is all she has left after the dust from the galactic scuffle settles. The only person left in the galaxy that knows who she is in earnest has no love to give. It's tragic.
I have much the same interpretation to you. Though I like to think that John would be capable of showing his affection for Halsey in his own way. It is tragic though. To add to your point, Halsey’s arguably greatest creation and in a sense other daughter has now become the new overbearing threat to the galaxy and is specifically targeting John. Just another nail in the coffin.
I can agree with that. Something that's fascinating that no one achknowledges is that Cortana's personality is mirrored completely off of Halsey. So Cortana's deep rooted connection to John might stem from that branch or it could have been coincidence that builds the relationship she does with him. She treats John in a kind bashful way as opposed to how John was treated while in Halsey's care. Cortana is a reflection as stated so aside from rampancy wasn't this outburst of perfection with the Guardians inevitable given her creators personality or is she simply a fragmented mind clinging to a purpose she no longer understands?
I think one more tragic thing is John and Cortana's discussion about who is a machine, John is a human that made to resemble a machine while Cortana was a machine that was made to resemble a human. It seems like a sick paradox
John is definitely NOT the biggest tragedy in the S-II program. I forget some of the names, but some had horrible starts before Halsey selected them for extraction. Serin is one example I can think of. Her mom was a junkie and abandoned her before age 6 and Halsey picked her up. She completed training, but almost died in augmentation. That's when Admiral Parangosky recruited her into ONI. If you don't remember her, she was the ONI officer who gave Captain Lasky the green light to take out Halsey in Halo 4 Spartan Ops. You should definitely read the kilo 5 trilogy.
@@Bryan-uw1ny I didnt write that John was the most tragic part of halo, but a tragic part rather.
Sad to think again about the fallen spartan 2s and other soldiers
honestly, I always found that the spartan 3s had it worse. Their parents threw them out to be experimented on and possibly die horrible deaths on the operating table, and they were old enough to know that as well as be hated more than spartan 2s because they were looked at as more expendable and weren't made by Halsey. Most went on headhunting missions that were almost a 99% mortality rate, later renamed as suicide missions because of that statistic. hell, even ODST's were considered less expendable.
@@ArgonianInSkyrim spartan 3s we're orphans and well lower the risk of death on a operating table spartan 2s are the ones you are thinking of but one thing is wrong the parents did not know that about their kids since them we're replaced by flash clones that die in a week
@@theblackswordsman3612 I just recently found my mistake and was hoping no-one would catch it, but they did (in some cases) have to watch their parents die, and I am talking about the spartan 3s because each spartan had a different reason of being there. There were never really any flash clones involved with spartan 3s for the most part though.
@Splint3rb3n thx, and facts
@@ArgonianInSkyrim you are right for spartan 3s yes there was no flash clones for them since them were orphans do to the covenant but how ever spartan 2s on the other hand yeah them needed to have a flash clone to replace them since them had parents
this hit so hard, but made me more hyped for infinite
Why? Serious question. 343 contributed nothing of quality to the Halo universe so far. All they have done to this point is stolen the work of other people and made it infinitely worse. What in the hell makes you think infinite is going to hw different. Just another dumpster fire made by 343.
@@requiemagent3014 and you know it's a bad game... How exactly? Cause I bet you've played it for soooooo long now
@@ArgonianInSkyrim That is the worst argument ever. Halo 4 and 5 were both a disgrace for the Halo IP. 343 has a track record of making garbage. They can't even make a port of a game that came out in 2001.
They had almost an entire year of delay and had absolutely nothing to show for at E3. This is just another Cyberpunk. The fact they hide their non existent work so much is more then telling. But 343 fanboys like you will never learn. It's not like they ever made anything good in their short existence.
Go outside and touch some grass. That is literally all you people are good for
@@requiemagent3014 I bet your great at parties. (Doubt u get invited to them but yeah)
@@requiemagent3014 and also no ones gunna listen to your points if there unjustifiably negative. The gameplay for infinite looks good and a return to form. 343 have learnt there mistakes and there back with a promise that I believe will be delivered. Gotta have some optimism man.
Spartans never die... they just join the Chorus. Been playing from CE to Infinite. Stuck with this series all my life. Thank you for this video.
“Sam was our first loss since augmentation… We thought training, augmentation, armour made us untouchable, invulnerable, immortal. Blue team. We were wrong… we were children.”
Makes me tear up every damn time
I've heard after John lost his squad mate because of the ruptured suit he makes his team bring extra thrusters and patching kits for their suits
That is the case. I beleve it's first mentioned in the book Silant Storm, which is set a few mouths after the death of Sam 034.
The Elites with ODST Soldiers at war, really felt like a nightmare of a war, good Job! This edit made Spartans ever more Epic!
This is really, really good & so are your other tributes. Goes right for the heart through the central underlying & overlaying themes really, really well & respectfully to the stories told. As a Halo nerd from the first game & Fall of Reach onwards, this is just
Even thought in the final months of the war she didn't think her work would save humanity.
Halsey is not a good person in public eye's, she never will be. But she is also the person planted the seeds of humanity survival, Spartan project, Mjölnir project, Infinity Class ships, UNSC Infinity and Eternity, and lastly Cortana. All of this is her life works, even though everything is according to the librarian plans.
Hmm well said men really well said good job you made Spartan and other Spartans very happy to see others Spartans fall good work men keep it up buddy
for some reason I only just I did't notice this comment till now. But thank you for the encouragement it means a lot.
Mate. I didn't cry at the End of Angel Beats. I didn't cry at Marley and Me. I didn't even cry at the end of Return of the King. Halo gets me EVERY GOD DAMNED TIME
Been playing Halo since the beginning. Got so good that I was going to go do the MLG thing. Then it all came crumbling down. The story hits hard because I remember all the good times. Even if this isn't about MLG, I felt attached.
Great video!
I never usually shed tears....but seeing this tribute to Spartan-II's made tears shed...
Agreed
Wow this is outstanding, legit every memorable and heart breaking and emotional moment and trailer. This is literally amazing I can’t express myself, I can’t express how great this is.
Thank you so much! I’m currently working on a dedicated John 117 video and hoping to get it finished before infinite release. I hope to do just as well in that tribute.
I am still with Halsey on this one. Life deals every one of us a different hand to play in life. If some of us are needed to go through Hell, then to Hell we shall march.
It always comes down to the fact that even with all the horror that’s the Spartan program caused if it was never done humanity would’ve been wiped out. As horrible as it was it proved in the end necessary.
@@rohanthomas4134 I think people keep forgetting this was not done to win a war this was first done to keep people in line the war happened after they had training and augmentation not because of the war but to keep people in line and underfoot of the government
@@lunasnightshade I think it would be more accurate to say that ONI wanted to win the (what seemed to them due to the Karva findings) inevitable mass conflict with the insurrection, and by extension prevent the predicted deaths of billions. What ONI did to facilitate the Spartan 2 program was utterly monstrous and in principle unjustifiable, but it was about more than just control of the population. To someone like Halsey it was about survival of species, and she was vindictive in the end but that still doesn’t make it right.
This hit hard…. I’m currently still serving in the military and this…. This hit hard.
Well I'm very happy you enjoyed it, and thank you for your service.
I actually bloody cried. Spartans never die
Been about a year since I played halo. This hits too hard. Need to go back and play them all again.
Thank you. Well they did just add forge and campaign co op to infinite so now is just about the perfect time.
Dude, you can't make a video like this, it causes localized storms and now my eyes are filled with salty rain.
I can! and I'll do it again! "insert evil laughter" also thank you for your kind words.
@@rohanthomas4134 I immediately heard O'Malley's evil laughter :D
The beginning sequence is phenomenal
I have been looking for this for so long. Thank you.
"No soldier should be honored for doing what is expected of them." - John 117
That give me so match tires in my eyse seeing all the emporten since in halo and even the music tocht my heart. 😢😭👍
For someone to die for someone else they dont even know that's the very definition of sacrifice
Enough to make a grown man cry
Well I’m happy to hear that I managed to move you that way. Thank you.
@@rohanthomas4134 👍
God fucking damn it I cried a little.
The culmination of the minutes where there were soo many voice lines were perfect that skit is one of the most underrated
A piece of art that deserves more attention
Spartan 2's are literally gigachads to be honest
gave me shivers. Shook me all the way down to when I was 10 years old and played Halo for the first time
Spartans lls and clones, clones and spartans lls, both made for war, both met with a tragic end with so few left
You can tell you Read the Fall of Reach as Like I when I was younger recently bought another copy of it and it's only amazing that you through in Sam! He sacrificed himself so John and the Squad could make it Back and it's so impactful as how he had that bond with the surviving children of the experiment and was knowing they forced by the higher up authority so they wanted to build strength and to get out together and slowly he was being molded into a leader but each loss impacted him dearly there was a couple other deaths that hit hard like olgirl that sniper they had that if wasn't for her Master Chief wouldnt of made it off reach but honestly she saved him 3 times if remember right and the last one was a sacrificed on her own positioning so John could make it to the ship only to stand and gaze out the window of it minutes later looking at her body lifelessly float as reach falls.. what I love bout this now is the beta week surprise drop talked about how also with introducing everything on launch it proceeded to drop how they also did this surprise launch to promote via the new Book to the Novels just came out so it shows the Halo infinite team tie in lotta based lore and have high regards to the core story of John. Seems they really hit home on understanding the characters in this one by what we've seen so far. but just going on rambling as I can say from a third party standpoint..you have a Tremendous Great Understanding of John and You are deeply infatuated with the Character. And You beautifully have Worked hard at Finding the Most Spectacular way to show and express how you interpreted the Story. Brilliant and a high five If my hunch was right but just saying you push this they should hire ya lol
Well I'm booth thankful and flaterd by your appreciation. Funny thing is, I think I'v goten a lot better at this since macking this video. My most recent Video infact is all about John. If you liked this vid then you'll love that one. ua-cam.com/video/HD2Am3J_YYM/v-deo.html
Yoo that ending be hitting different
You are really good at this, you rock.
I can tell so much love was poured into making this video. Great job man!!
Thank you! I’m happy to hear that my passion is appreciated.
I wasn’t trying to cry today but here I am
Don't mind me. Just crying.
"incert evil laughter"
Right here we got well let's get right down to it then
i loooove intro so much
this is INCREDIBLE
Unpopular opinion: halo 4 and 5 master chief looks the best out of them all
I agree with your unpopular opinion.
I like the design and detail of the armour but it always bugs me so much of how thing both the forearms and biceps are for these perfect soldiers. Just looks unnatural
Give a feel or amount of emotion to the Spartan 2 program. This was pretty good.
seeing the headbutt scenes from johns original story and from halo 5 was awesome cause that's something i never noticed, aswell as the ´´This was the only thing john was afraid of... losing one of us..´´ And it cuts to cortana, the end of halo 4 was always emotional for me but fuck this gives it a whole new meaning.
My glad you appreciate that parallel. I. I’m working on a dedicated John 117 tribute right know and there is certainly going to a lot them in there when it’s done.
You know… I was thinking about this the other day as I was reading “Silent Storm” the other day. How does good come from evil? Because, when you really think about it, what Halsey did to the Spartans was pure, cold-hearted, and twisted *EVIL* .
She didn’t make the Spartans to defend humanity from the Covenant, that’s just something that happened. She ripped these children out of the lives they could have had because she wanted to see if she could turn children into killing machines and the government, a completely soulless entity that was in a war to maintain its death grip on the colonies who were tired of being cogs in the machine, agreed with her.
John-117 could have turned out exactly like Darth Maul. “The Sith ripped me from my mother’s arms, murdered my brother, used me as a weapon, and then cast me aside. Abandoned me. Once I had power, but now I have nothing. Nothing.” When I think about it, John is almost exactly like Maul, or maybe even the Clones. Halsey may be playing his mother now, but she doesn’t *really* care about him. He’s expendable to this scientist and the government that enabled her to abuse him at the end of the day. When there are no more wars to fight, when Cortana, Halsey, and all of the other Spartans are gone - having given up their lives to a cause they didn’t choose - he will have nothing. Not even a life.
Humanity was saved. I’m sure the species is grateful for the sacrifice of the Spartan II’s… but when we think about the atrocities our species is capable of, all of the unspeakable things we have done and will do solely because we either wanted to or because someone told us to… it really makes you wonder if our species *deserves* to survive. If we’re like Halsey, a woman who was only ever devoted to science and never had any morals or ethics and was willing to destroy the lives of hundred of children *just because* … I really wonder if whatever smacks us down the road isn’t because we deserve it.
While I totally agree that the Spartan 2 program is evil regardless of the net positive it gains for humanity, I strongly disagree with your assessment of doctor Halsey and her motivations. It is made very clear in multiple sources particularly"the fall of reach" and First strike" that a significant if not the primary motivation driving Halsey is the Insurrectionist threat and the possibility of large scale human civil war predicted by the Carver Findings. As far as Halsey and the UNSC are aware, if drastic action is not taken to stabilise the political situation within the colonises then humanity is on the track to tear its own society apart and kill billions in an interstellar nuclear war.
I would definitely agree that there was an element of morbid scientific curiosity and ego that drove her proposal for the spartan 2 program, but that does not invalidate the (as far as Halsey and the UNSC are concerned) grim necessity of the program. In addition, it's made clear in "the fall of reach" that if Hasley tried to delay or refuses to move ahead with any of the unsavoury elements of the spartan two program (witch she strongly considers dowing just prior to augmentations when the candidates are fourteen) then ONI would just replace her with someone less concerned with the child candidates welfare. There are several instances of her feeling immense guilt over what she did to the Spartans and by the end of the human covenant war she has come to believe that the choice she made to embark on the project was wrong and subsequently does everything in her power to save the Spartan 3's on onex defying ONI and the UNSC in the proses. (ironically it's this act of attempted moral penance that gets her arrested and scapegoated by ONI)
She absolutely cares a great deal about the spartan 2's especially John, there are numerous instances of that being expressed over many books, comics and games. While there is a certain dissonance to her caring for but still putting the Spartans in harms way, as soldiers it's important to remember that by the time that the Spartans are actually deployed the covenant has already made its threat known. In the face of such an existential threat, it would be madness not to deploy the greatest soldiers in human history against it. We see her express affection or concern for the spartan 2's in almost every interaction she has with them across the whole franchise.
@@rohanthomas4134 honestly couldn't have worded it better myself.
We grow together, we die together
This hits the spot❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Holy,Dark.~~!!!!
We all go into a coffin of one type or another it when they life is over
Holy-Shit. i was ready for a slap music video but damn. im pumped...makes me want to put on my suit of armor i built XD
well I'm happy you had such a stong reaction.
I was also a Child once but you don't even me complaining
Lol
The dead, never die.
This is beautiful
My mother interested of the story of halo but not much time to watch whole gameplay or lore of what I know of and who they are
Fmv video show something special may be highlighted bit or so. But to know more there is more
Something to think about, that though perhaps humanity has yet to produce super soldiers, every soldier
then and now who faced great darkness with courage and a willing heart, began their life...as a child.
And when they put on that uniform they are a child no longer, innocent hopes traded away for the will to
fight and defend others.
Hoouragh Master Chief from JT Hughes of the 1st Infantry.
excellent video
Thank you.
That's some pretty good stuff
why thank you.
@@rohanthomas4134 you're very much welcome c: great editing skills you got there
Half of our peers were lost to augmentation failure.
This feels like a movie wow good job
More people need to see this
That was awesome
Starts a little bumpy but wow towards the end is just filled with good content.
just beautiful
By the gods...
Thumbs book was the best. The spartan 2s are my favorite. Their story should've been adopted long ago imho.
I agree. To bad every attempt to directly adapt any of the halo stories have ether been ether incomplete, canceled or . . . the show.
That ending, on the one hand part of me wants to say "hell yes!" I'm the other hand... I know most of all who follow him get killed eventually, so....
Love it made very well
Thank you good sir
Would've totally went through this program as a kid hands down if it meant I could get the suit
well, you'd have about a 1/25 chance of dying in an accident during training, a 13/36 chance of dying during augmentations to get the suit, Plus an about a 1/3 chance of dying in the human covenant war so who knows how long you would have it but yeah, you would have a pretty coll suit.
@@rohanthomas4134 I'd do it for the height. My ass is short and I'm tired of always been called "shortie"
My emotions😭
BATJAX 😊
Yep, i didn't need them
When halsey say John was not emotionally equip to face Cortana, I thought she meant he can't process it. She was wrong, Chef knew. He wasn't a machine, he had hope for her like he always does. Without the forerunner force power, I think chef would have stopped cortana.
Amazing. Keep up the great work
Thank you. I'll certanly try.
Spartans are badass yes and were the last hope... But holy crap the process to make them was tragic
And most of humanity will never now.
This was taken 5minutes befor disaster
You made a grown man cry today
Well do aim to emotionally attack my viewers.
Bro this hits so hard….amazing work 😭
I’m so happy to hear that. Thank you.
117 of them and yet only 7 are left
Well actually in the lore the spartan program started out with 150 candidates but only 75 were taken to reach, between the augmentation washouts and those killed in action most died. There are however at least 12 active spartan 2's that being Blue team, Red team, Gray team and Naomi 010. There are more than a dozen Spartans who were ever crippled during their augmentations and thus never entered combat, retired and became a civilian or deserted from the UNSC. Even with 20 years of content were still not sure.
Bro i have no clue how you dont have more views. This was so beautifully put together and well edited and just gives such emotion. It is beautiful. Love your work and hopefully this gets picked up by the algorithm because it deserves it!
Thank very much for your kind words. Fear not, for it appears that the algorithm has decided to notice me after all these months of making videos. It’s really quite surreal to have videos suddenly go from getting a dozen views a day to Well over 100 views a day and suddenly realise that one of your creations is approaching 20,000 views. I figured as long as I keep going people keep coming and I’ll be happy with that.
@@rohanthomas4134 That's wonderful to hear! Congrats! And I look forward to see what else you put together, going through all your other videos right now actually.
@@Drededangel thank you. I’m currently working on a dedicated John 117 tribute right now. Hope to have it finished before infinite. It will take some time but I’m really happy with how it’s coming together.
Damn, this was intense
@ 8:13 343i pay homepage to her as bundle set, you can own on Halo Infinite MP.
I love that that they included it, wish I could unlock it without spending credits though.
This is a MASTERPIECE, you deserve 10k subs.
Thank you! I figured I’ll get there eventually if I just keep going, especially cus halo is on the rise again.
I was here.
this deserves way more views and likes than it has
well, I was recently found by the algorithm so I reckon I'll be getting a few more at least. Lucky me!
Thank you for this !!!
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
I like the part when they said the names Blue Team, Jorge, Daisy, This is red team. Just wish they added more spartans with voices like or other saying names, Kurt, Will, Grace,Li etc. Alot of Spartan 2s died on Reach very few remain Gray,Red,Blue and Naomi as far as ik.
Well I might do something like that in a video down the road.
Where is that "I wonder what our parents would think of us now" line from?
It's from "Homecoming" one of the anime short films from Halo Legends. Specifically, the scene where Daisy and Ralph are talking in the wilderness.
Great and tragic and very emotional
Thank you. I was certainly going for that.
This video was AMAZING MAN!!!
well I'm very glad you think so.
Very well edited. I love it.
Thank you so much!
Watched halo reach movie. Damn the spartans were child soldiers. Guess same at real life spartans. Bummed me out. Great warriors but at what cost.
wait until you hear about the spartan 3 suicide soldiers.
Being broken isn't a fault.
I love Kelly
She is cool. though I'm personally more partial to Lynda.
Amazing edit....hope you upload more
thank you. I'm working on a master dedicated Jhon 117 video right now actualy.
Covenant when they here the word master chief they cry out in fear
But when they hear noble 6 they don’t know that is.
Random covenant: who is noble six
Gets killed randomly
Noble six in shadows with a suppressor: kill 9,885,567,023
I'm so happy there're no footages of Infinite! They really killed this franchise
Well, this was made at a time when the only Infinite content we had was a teaser trailer and a preview of the first cutscene. I can't deny that the multiplayer content is pretty botched despite a pretty fun core. Narratively I think Infinite is a bit of a mixed bag but its positives soundly outway its shortcomings.
now that deserves to be the main ship trailer for all of halo
Thank you! The funny thing is that I’m currently macking a dedicated John 117 tribute video that is intended to do fill exactly that role. I only hope that i terns out well.
@@rohanthomas4134 if it turns out half as good as this it will be great^_^
@@musicwarrior7630 thanks. I guess all I have to do is finish it before infinite drops.
@@rohanthomas4134 looking forward to it^_^
nice editing!
I need a version with just the first part
Well done
Thank you.
As a WH 40k fan, I never saw what Halsey did as bad. 20m children would have been worth sending into the grinder to get as many Spartans as possible and it would have been a easy price for Humanity.
That's basically what they thought when they made the spartain 3's lol. Teenage suicide solders baby!
Nice Video.
