This short is an emotional rollercoaster. It's rare that an animation can be so happy and so sad in the same 10 minutes. I am also delighted that this short got it's own art book! 🦊
Same I hope so too. I mean Sif and their team are certainly trying. They've partnered with the Danish animation studio Nørlum, who previously have worked with Disney TVA and Cartoon Saloon to pitch Tales of Zale as an animated series for TV stations or Streaming service. And they have the support of Jakob Stegelmann who is basically the Danish Stan Lee, grandfather of the modern Nerd Culture here, manager of the Disney Afternoon, and so much more! To have the backing of him is a big accomplishment and I really hope they can make a series out of this!
Could be a good cartoon series I would definitely watch it I don't see why not they should team up with Netflix and make it possible I've seen a lot of people team up with Netflix they might like it or Hulu and Peacock this would be a good cartoon to watch I want to know more about their world.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR WATCHING!! It has been SUCH a journey bringing this project to fruition!

This is such an incredible film! I'm new to the Tales of Zale, but this was quite an introduction! I was awed by the story, art, and sound. I can't wait to see more of this world. You and your team are extremely talented!
Wanted this one to be something new viewers could jump straight into as well, since it's been such a long time since the previous episodes. I'm glad it made a good impression! :)
@@happyheartstv1431 It's an owl, isn't it? Owls can eat cats. Probably not that size of an owl, but it's definitely large enough that the cat would be risking its life to try and fight it.
Morfeus seems VERY interesting to me, it seems that he doesn't want to hurt and wants to help Zale, but we see how he doesn't seem to like Elva, he already tried to kill her once and the other time he tried to keep her from accompanying Zale, there is something very strange about Morpheus.
Maybe morpheus has some sort of connection to zale or his family, so thats why hes nice. but for elva, idk maybe she was like. trespassing morpheus’ territory?? and also cats hunt birds so that might be one reason
Looks amazing! I remember watching episode 1 and 2 of Tales of Zale a year or two ago, and being so amazed by the talent, the story, and the characters! It looks amazing, and i cant wait :D
This was a long journey and now we're here. The art, the music, the direction, the story: everything is beautiful. Especially I love the mystery and atmosphere, it makes you want to see more.
the symbolism between the street, the street light, and crossing it being death- ( I think, that's just how I'm reading into it lol )-is quite creative, The street light being red where you have to wait to "cross to the other side"
I'm at loss for words, this is such a stunning piece of work. You all did such a wonderful job at every turn, the emotions, atmosphere, story, animation, music. It struck a chord in me for sure, and I feel for Zale. I'm happy he has Elva to support him (: Excellent work, all of you!
In this current era of terrible corporate decisions where animation is now at it's lowest point yet, the only hope now was to rise up and support all the indie shows that have been put somewhere where nothing too shady is watching them. But then I suddenly stumbled upon this series, and let me just say: *WELL DONE!!*
Yes, just, well done! If anything though, this just comes to show you that animation doesn't have to be targeted for the young ones only. Adults and teens want to like it too, and this series, with it's well written story that isn't afraid to take some pretty dark turns, has potential to become one of the perfect representations of why it matters to everyone. Again, this was a beautiful work of talent you got there. Awesome job! ❤
Thank you so much. It's interesting and scary to see what's happening with the global animation market, after we've just had a golden age where more and more creativity was given the opportunity to be unleashed. We will see what happens - either way we'll never stop making. Not for "kids", "teens" or "adults" - but for people as the people they are.
wow, i watched tales of zale as a kid and now i'm an adult, which is so crazy. Coming back to this animation and story (which I always thought was beautiful and interesting) and seeing such an improvement with the even more adorable style and gorgeous animation is amazing! I really hope to see more of this cause I've been hooked since the first episode
Thanks to everyone for watching and supporting the efforts from Sif and the Tales of Zale team. I am at a loss for words how much support there has been as we have worked tirelessly to bring Zale's heartfelt adventures to life. For me, this animation project through the years has been a musical love letter to all the creatives out there who continue to share their talents and passion to inspire others. I am looking forward to continue to do just that, and hopefully continue working with this team on future projects!
I came here because some dude I follow retweeted this. Was like, well, might just be smth to spend the time. I ended up sobbing at the end because the message behind it hits deep. Thank you for creating this and sharing this with the world. The music, the art, the story-telling, the build-up, the hints, the atmosphere, it was wonderful. A true masterpiece. Thank you.
What an incredible journey it has been to reach this point. I remember watching the original pilot all those year ago followed by the first and second episode. To see how far you've come as an animator and story teller is a real treasure. The animation, backgrounds, and general ambience is downright BEAUTIFUL. Congrats on finally getting it out. This is a one of a kind shortfilm.
What a treat this film is oh my goodness!! It is so professionally done too 😭🙏❤️ I've been following Tales of Zale since I've found episode 1... The growth is unbelievable!! The storytelling and visualization are beyond beautiful, what a wonderful project!!
THIS IS EXCELLENTLY MADE the story telling, sound design, voice acting, animation everything I especially love the character acting of the owls it felt like they moved like real birds and the fact that this was largely one person is incredible! Thank you for putting in the hard work and putting out this 2d animated gem on the internet
Holy smokes this is incredible, I love the vibe, the mystery, the characters! Not to mention the animation itself is outstanding! I really wish you the best of luck with the series, and I hope I can make it into Copenhagen to see the exhibition about Tales of Zale this weekend! Ps. Happy Birthday Sif!
This was beautiful and I hope this gets way more attention! This is one of the things that inspired me to start my own Series and for that thank you, thank you so much! This is so beautiful and underrated!
After watching this I can say that this is some of the highest animation quality you can have on youtube rn. I feel confident in saying IT IS the highest quality short film that is suitable for kids Amazing job Sif, this was amazing and you deserve all the love in the world!!!
I love stories set in a word left behind by humans seeing how the animals still alive would interact with the ruins of cities and seeing nature take back land
I already knew it would be well worth the wait but OH MY GOSH! Sif, this is absolutely superb! I mean, this was such an amazing project to watch and then rewatch two more times (you already know I’m gonna watch it again lol). AND THE EXPRESSIONS- Those expressions really show how each character is feeling even when there’s no dialogue. It really adds to whole experience. Everyone, voice actors and team members, nailed it! Round of applause to all of you! Seriously! 🥹😍 Poor Zale.. It may just be me looking way too into it but I could sort of pick up on an envious vibe at the beginning when he watched Elva interact with her family. Especially knowing that he is looking for his own. Being lonely can be an awful thing to go through. You can distract yourself with temporary things like exploring, hobbies or discovering new things but somehow you always get dragged back to that feeling. ;O; I was tearing up when he chose to sit in the rain with the buffalo (?) so he wouldn’t feel lonely like Zale was. I was so curious about the interaction between Zale and Morpheus. I feel like Morpheus isn’t all bad. Like he gives off a sort of “villain” vibe but I have a feeling that there’s more to him.
Truly a masterpiece! It definitely make the viewers see more. I remember first watching Tales of Zale a few years ago and I thought it was so cool and it still is! ❤️
Stumbled across this while scrolling, The amount of talent: animating, story, characters, music and everything. I can’t describe it apart from calling it a masterpiece. Keep up the great work and don’t forget to take breaks 👍
I can't believe after 6 years it's finally here! The animation in this episode is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! I adore all the little details and effort that went into making this story a feast for the eyes. The story has gotten even more compelling and I really can't wait to see what happens next. Incredible work and I look forward to seeing more from this series!!
This project has come a long, long way, and it was so lovely seeing this come out! The art, direction, story, music, voice acting just everything about this episode was wonderful, sad but also so beautiful. It hit me in a special spot for sure. I felt so much for Zale here, and I'm happy to see Elva is there for him. Everyone who worked on this did amazing!!
When I saw this episode was out, I was like what a concept, this was so well made, this probably has like 50k views, it is so beautiful. Now despite the mere 1k views, I think that you deserve so much more considering that you were able to bring this world and these characters truly to life. Not many animators can do that or just captivate so many different types of people into something that feels like a kids show (on the surface). I cannot wait to see what this becomes and how big this will get because I'm telling you: This is really is something else. Keep up all the hard work because you've got a whole lot of support coming from us. Take care
Thank you so much Tyler! I have quality over quantity with me, with everybody being so nice and supportive around the project. Of course, I hope to get our hard work out to many more people and will do everything I can to make it so. But it may be more of a marathon than a sprint. I'm glad to have everyone's support in the endeavour :)
Do not worry. In 2 years, this episode has gained more than a million views. I'm sure the animator is pleased with the result and the whole series deserves its popularity.
WOW!! I've been seeing the process work of this, but to see it complete is a whole other thing. It's absolutely stunning, the music, the art, the story, amazing! I love how the backgrounds also add to the story. Fantastic work and you should be proud of how hard you and your team worked!
I can’t believe somebody was able to come up with a plot so with and so good that I cried through the second act tales of zero is probably some of the best things I have ever seen in the past decade I have been alive
After watching this I immediately re-watched the first two chapters and the mini-episodes. I had an idea on what the white rabbit symbolized, but now I really don't know. Anyway, I love how there is real character development here, with Zale revealing his deeper motivations and Elva overcoming her timidness and fear. I really look forward to what chapter 4!
Dude. This is truly something special. The visual effects, the FREAKING MUSIC, just everything, it's amazing! I would really love to see a continuation of this!
Amazing animation, adorable characters and interactions, awesome voice acting and music... just wonderfully done! Congratulations on creating such a great piece of art! I hope Saberspark covers it in the future, as he has covered other indie animations.
I loved this! I don't know why it didn't pop into my recommendations sooner, but this is absolutely top-notch! The music, ambience, animation, everything, it's so good! I feel like this could be made into an actual movie, I'd definitely watch it!
I absolutely love this series and cant wait for more to be made. Especially with the cliffhanger at the end of this short film The symbolism and the cinematography on this are absolutely beautiful
This is literally amazing. I watched the original episodes quite a while ago, and I remember thinking they were absolutely amazing. I didn't know this existed until I decided to revisit not long ago. Needless to say it blew my mind; absolutely flawless. Really hope we get more at some point, there's just so much love and effort packed into the 10 minutes here.
AHH WOW I’ve been watching the progress of this on Twitter + on the discord for quite a long time and it’s so amazing seeing the final piece. Everything turned out so well, I absolutely love seeing Zale animated again after all this time. the animation is so fluid and satisfying to watch, everything looks incredibly professional and I’m very excited to see what the future of this series holds!!
Has to be a joke right? 100k views? It’s been three weeks! Should be at least 3 mill! Brilliant This is better than so many movies! One of the best things to ever come out of UA-cam! Hope the views start coming, you earned it!
This was honestly a lot better than I had anticipated. The animation was good, I liked the voice acting, and it had such a strong message at the end. Honestly made me a little emotional. Nice work.
Oh Sesam, what are you up to...Morpheus being out there with him worries me. But this was really great! I've been following it on Instagram for a while now and I loved every part of it! The animation was so great, the characters look awesome (Zale and Elva are so CUTE) and the ending was really interesting to me, too. I do wonder whatever happened to Zale's family though :( Where are they? How'd he end up in the forest with Elva? Who looks after him?
It was amazing watching the animation progress that went into this short film. And it was a beautiful short as well! The sound direction and the art went hard. Hope to see more in the future!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!! srsly the animations and art is srsly amazing! 😍 everyone did an amazing job with the voice acting as well dyamn! great job!
This looks awesome! I discovered this project on Instagram not too long ago and it’s awesome to see how amazing it turned out and see the story unfold! Looking forward to seeing more!
Sesam is such a brat XD That long drop of Zale's at the beginning gives me goosebumps every time. The shot with the wind and the ruins is mesmerizing every time. Morpheus, you smooth talking sonnova, how ya doin?! Can't tell if Morpheus is pleased or annoyed by Zale not being scared. I hope it's pleased. Poor lonely fox bean. Happy tail wag by the bison is adorable
I was a little confused by the ending, everything turning to mist, seeing the outline of a fox, and the light turning green, the bison moving forward and he too passed into the misty outlines. I got the sense that the mist represented death, but was then confused on how Zale was talking to a dead bison the whole time? Or the bison was simply waiting for death, and when Zale left, he did actually pass away. Perhaps the Bison was so unwell that he was already seeing that ghost fox? Either way, if you couldn't tell by the username, I'm an avid lover of foxes, and all I could think of when I heard Zale was looking for his family, is that foxes don't stay families for long. Foxes are fully grown and out on their own in left than a year, and they're generally solitary creatures. I see in movies and TV shows, foxes always looking to belong in what would otherwise be considered a "pack." Hell, even Zootopia, Nick wanted to "be part of a pack" and, look how that turned out. It's like the world is just, reenrofrcing what happens in nature, foxes are typically off surviving on their own. So it was nice to see Zale was finding new friends after the loss of his family. It seems like he lost his family not out of natural progression of life, but rather they died too soon.
It's the best combination of 2d disney animation, studio ghibli and cartoon saloon. I remember watching this so long ago- can't believe it's only 2 years old- and I've finally come back and I can say, I relate a lot to Zale.
Oh my goodness, this is really amazing! I seriously can not wait for more! The artwork is amazing, the voices are so good, just... everything! You got me all in for this!
This is SOOOooo GOOod! And SO Nice to see Tale of Zale again!😊🤩 I remember watching this back in middle school-highschool (ithink),around time episodes were newer, and obsessed over the animation and tactics you used. It'd be a lie if I said it hadn't Influenced how I looked at and analyzed animated stories 😁. The animation and story was and is still absolutely dreamy! Fantastic work, As ALWAYS.
Amazing short 10/10. This short just popped up in my reccomended and I decided to watch all episodes. Art is beautiful and the sound desing is too. Good job! Going to sub, now.
OKAY THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST ANIMATED SHORTS THAT I HAVE *EVER* SEEN. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN! BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED!!! BEAUTIFULLY VOICED!!! I CAN SEE HOW MUCH HEART AND SOUL YOU'VE PUT INTO THIS!!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND INSPIRING!!! I LOVE ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS!!!! THEY'RE ALL SO FUN AND CHARMING!!! THE STORY IS SO ENGAGING!!!! WHAT HAPPENED AT THE END? WAS THE BUFFALO REALLY A GHOST WAITING FOR HIS AFTERLIFE??? WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS WORLD??? THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!! BEAUTIUFL!! THRILLING! STUNNING!!!!
i love how much is conveyed with only a few characters and a few settings, its master-level story telling IMO. The first time i saw the 1&2 episodes all those year ago, it really left an impression on me, and it really makes me over-joyed to know that the story is not over Art & Music here really do compliment each other here to a perfect degree, everything produced around Tales of Zale has such charm, joy, and an indescribable mood to it, feels sorta like a mystery, but without the overdone and prolonged suspense, but at the same time it feels like a fairy tale almost. Thanks for creating such wonderful animations, it really has been a joying watching them all~ Greatly looking forward to more as well~
this channel, and this video is the main thing that inspired me to make animations, i have admired this and have wanted to do work of this quality since i saw this.
Valió la espera espera me gusta mucho el estilo que tiene,las voces de los personajes les queda muy bien y los efectos del ruido y los colores son hermosos un trabajo bien hecho ❤🙏
This short is an emotional rollercoaster. It's rare that an animation can be so happy and so sad in the same 10 minutes.
I am also delighted that this short got it's own art book! 🦊
Thank you so much! I had so much I wanted to say in such a limited time - It was really a puzzle saying as much with as little as possible😄
Absolutely amazing
@@Sifps I love ur chanle now❤
yum
@@Sifps why were elva and zale redesigned their designs were perfect.
I feel like this could genuinely be made into a good movie
Maybe even a movie series?
That just shows how much love and effort was put into this

@@drdewott9154 I genuinely hope that it works out for them
7 years ago they made an episode 1 and 6 years ago an episode 2. This short is the only reason I know that btw.
Could be a good cartoon series I would definitely watch it I don't see why not they should team up with Netflix and make it possible I've seen a lot of people team up with Netflix they might like it or Hulu and Peacock this would be a good cartoon to watch I want to know more about their world.

I get the feeling Morpheus is just tryina protect the kids lol, this was absolutely beautiful! And I love all these characters!
Yeah, I didn’t rlly like that a bird pushed off a cat, it made literally 0 sense, but it was amazing apart from that
@@happyheartstv1431 It's an owl, isn't it? Owls can eat cats. Probably not that size of an owl, but it's definitely large enough that the cat would be risking its life to try and fight it.
Plus the cat wasn't being too aggressive, just more of a. Hey I'm here, and dangerous okay not really.
@@weeveferrelaine6973 lol idek anymore I made that comment a while ago so idk and idc :/
Morfeus seems VERY interesting to me, it seems that he doesn't want to hurt and wants to help Zale, but we see how he doesn't seem to like Elva, he already tried to kill her once and the other time he tried to keep her from accompanying Zale, there is something very strange about Morpheus.
Morpheus is the god of dreams inngreek mythology so thats some info
A cat? Strange?
Maybe morpheus has some sort of connection to zale or his family, so thats why hes nice. but for elva, idk maybe she was like. trespassing morpheus’ territory?? and also cats hunt birds so that might be one reason
I was thinking a bit scientifically, cats are natural predators of birds, and even if Elva is an owl she is still young and vulnerable so yeah.
Looks amazing! I remember watching episode 1 and 2 of Tales of Zale a year or two ago, and being so amazed by the talent, the story, and the characters! It looks amazing, and i cant wait :D

Same here I remember wanting so bad that there was another episode over time I forgot about it until UA-cam recommended this and I’m so glad it did
I THOUGHT I had seen this before somewhere! Glad I'm not the only one!
This was a long journey and now we're here. The art, the music, the direction, the story: everything is beautiful.
Especially I love the mystery and atmosphere, it makes you want to see more.
Yeah! Each of these elements are helping to tell the story, in a way. It's beautiful indeed!
the symbolism between the street, the street light, and crossing it being death- ( I think, that's just how I'm reading into it lol )-is quite creative, The street light being red where you have to wait to "cross to the other side"
I never really watched these types of things, but i started to get into these. Having this as one of my first ones really made me like them.
I'm at loss for words, this is such a stunning piece of work. You all did such a wonderful job at every turn, the emotions, atmosphere, story, animation, music. It struck a chord in me for sure, and I feel for Zale. I'm happy he has Elva to support him (:

Do not worry. In 2 years, this episode has gained more than a million views. I'm sure the animator is pleased with the result and the whole series deserves its popularity.
WOW!! I've been seeing the process work of this, but to see it complete is a whole other thing. It's absolutely stunning, the music, the art, the story, amazing! I love how the backgrounds also add to the story. Fantastic work and you should be proud of how hard you and your team worked!
Thank you SO SO much!! We gave it our all, every step of the way!!!!
Thanks again everyone, It's always a pleasure voicing Zale for this series.
I've watched this like three times already. The animation is beautiful, you did a great job.
And I appreciate every one of those views - thank you!!
I can’t believe somebody was able to come up with a plot so with and so good that I cried through the second act tales of zero is probably some of the best things I have ever seen in the past decade I have been alive
After watching this I immediately re-watched the first two chapters and the mini-episodes. I had an idea on what the white rabbit symbolized, but now I really don't know. Anyway, I love how there is real character development here, with Zale revealing his deeper motivations and Elva overcoming her timidness and fear. I really look forward to what chapter 4!
Woot woot! A huge congrats to the team for putting this together! It's been a heck of an adventure :D

Holy shit the quality on this is unreal. I had shivers through the whole thing and that is not an overstatement or exaggeration I promise you.
Dude. This is truly something special. The visual effects, the FREAKING MUSIC, just everything, it's amazing! I would really love to see a continuation of this!
The animation of the owl is absolutely superb. You've got the physicality of using the wings integrated perfectly. This is top-tier character work!
The owl is Elva
Amazing animation, adorable characters and interactions, awesome voice acting and music... just wonderfully done! Congratulations on creating such a great piece of art! I hope Saberspark covers it in the future, as he has covered other indie animations.
SUCH A PRETTY ANIMATION YOU AND YOUR TEAM DID A GOOD JOB
it's impressive, the art, the sound, all high quality, an excellent job from what I see, the script too, it's all amazing keep it up
I loved this! I don't know why it didn't pop into my recommendations sooner, but this is absolutely top-notch! The music, ambience, animation, everything, it's so good! I feel like this could be made into an actual movie, I'd definitely watch it!
Yesss! It’s here! I’ve been enjoying watching your streams. I know you’re glad to have it completed.
For sure!! And thank you so much for sharing so many of the clips I post underway, it's really been a great help! :)
I absolutely love this series and cant wait for more to be made. Especially with the cliffhanger at the end of this short film
The symbolism and the cinematography on this are absolutely beautiful
This is literally amazing.
I watched the original episodes quite a while ago, and I remember thinking they were absolutely amazing. I didn't know this existed until I decided to revisit not long ago. Needless to say it blew my mind; absolutely flawless. Really hope we get more at some point, there's just so much love and effort packed into the 10 minutes here.
AMAZING. this could have its own cartoon. the style is amazing :)
wow wow wow woooowww!!!!! such a cute film!! i love all of it!!
Yess my childhood favorite, this is amazing thank you making this!
AHH WOW I’ve been watching the progress of this on Twitter + on the discord for quite a long time and it’s so amazing seeing the final piece. Everything turned out so well, I absolutely love seeing Zale animated again after all this time. the animation is so fluid and satisfying to watch, everything looks incredibly professional and I’m very excited to see what the future of this series holds!!
I'm so glad I found this! That was an excellent experience. Thank you for working so hard to bring this to us.
Thank you for watching and enjoying 🧡
Has to be a joke right? 100k views? It’s been three weeks! Should be at least 3 mill! Brilliant This is better than so many movies! One of the best things to ever come out of UA-cam! Hope the views start coming, you earned it!
This was honestly a lot better than I had anticipated. The animation was good, I liked the voice acting, and it had such a strong message at the end. Honestly made me a little emotional. Nice work.
Oh sii está sin duda va a quedar hermoso ✨✨ ❤️❤️ ya quiero ver cómo quedó!!
Y sin duda quedo hermoso!!! ❤️❤️✨✨
Oh Sesam, what are you up to...Morpheus being out there with him worries me.
But this was really great! I've been following it on Instagram for a while now and I loved every part of it! The animation was so great, the characters look awesome (Zale and Elva are so CUTE) and the ending was really interesting to me, too.
I do wonder whatever happened to Zale's family though :( Where are they? How'd he end up in the forest with Elva? Who looks after him?
Hopefully I can answer that.... someday :)
It was amazing watching the animation progress that went into this short film. And it was a beautiful short as well! The sound direction and the art went hard. Hope to see more in the future!!
We all gave it our all! It's been a long journey :D
Wow this is gorgeous all around. Stunning work
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!! srsly the animations and art is srsly amazing! 😍 everyone did an amazing job with the voice acting as well dyamn! great job!
OMG the hype is really! Your work is amazing!
This was absolutely gorgeous! I’ve no words. Super well done!
This was so beautiful I hope it gets more attention! The end was so unexpected!
This turned out great! Was 100% worth the wait. Well done to you and the team
This is amazing! I look forward to more of The Tales of Zale!!
This looks awesome! I discovered this project on Instagram not too long ago and it’s awesome to see how amazing it turned out and see the story unfold! Looking forward to seeing more!
This animated series is amazing!!! The art, story, music, character designs - ALL of it is beautiful and so well done! :)
This was so fun to watch! The character dynamics are nice and the background art looks really good💞💕
I'm mad this isn't more viewed, this deserves love and reconnection
Sesam is such a brat XD
That long drop of Zale's at the beginning gives me goosebumps every time.
The shot with the wind and the ruins is mesmerizing every time.
Morpheus, you smooth talking sonnova, how ya doin?!
Can't tell if Morpheus is pleased or annoyed by Zale not being scared. I hope it's pleased.
Poor lonely fox bean.
Happy tail wag by the bison is adorable
Ahhhh reading all your reactions brings such a smile to my face!! :D
I was a little confused by the ending, everything turning to mist, seeing the outline of a fox, and the light turning green, the bison moving forward and he too passed into the misty outlines. I got the sense that the mist represented death, but was then confused on how Zale was talking to a dead bison the whole time? Or the bison was simply waiting for death, and when Zale left, he did actually pass away. Perhaps the Bison was so unwell that he was already seeing that ghost fox?
Either way, if you couldn't tell by the username, I'm an avid lover of foxes, and all I could think of when I heard Zale was looking for his family, is that foxes don't stay families for long. Foxes are fully grown and out on their own in left than a year, and they're generally solitary creatures. I see in movies and TV shows, foxes always looking to belong in what would otherwise be considered a "pack." Hell, even Zootopia, Nick wanted to "be part of a pack" and, look how that turned out. It's like the world is just, reenrofrcing what happens in nature, foxes are typically off surviving on their own.
So it was nice to see Zale was finding new friends after the loss of his family. It seems like he lost his family not out of natural progression of life, but rather they died too soon.
It's the best combination of 2d disney animation, studio ghibli and cartoon saloon. I remember watching this so long ago- can't believe it's only 2 years old- and I've finally come back and I can say, I relate a lot to Zale.
Congratulations Sif, everything turned out amazing.
Oh my goodness, this is really amazing! I seriously can not wait for more! The artwork is amazing, the voices are so good, just... everything! You got me all in for this!
This is SOOOooo GOOod! And SO Nice to see Tale of Zale again!😊🤩
I remember watching this back in middle school-highschool (ithink),around time episodes were newer, and obsessed over the animation and tactics you used. It'd be a lie if I said it hadn't Influenced how I looked at and analyzed animated stories 😁.
The animation and story was and is still absolutely dreamy!
Fantastic work, As ALWAYS.
I love it. It gives me such wonderful "By the waters of Babylon" as opposed to "Fallout" vibes and I love it.
Amazing short 10/10. This short just popped up in my reccomended and I decided to watch all episodes. Art is beautiful and the sound desing is too. Good job! Going to sub, now.
Came for the cute fox. Stayed for the amazing story. Chills, laughs, and even a couple of tears. This is quality animation and storytelling.
UA-cam treats animation better than Netflix & HBOmax combined.
There’s only one thing I have to say about this well technically to, but you did a amazing job, and all of the characters are so Flippin adorable lol
congrats 1 million milestone👏👏
For something that just appeared in my recommended, I am truly astounded. Beautiful art, animation, story, characters. A wonderful work of art.
Bravo!
Looks like I ain't sleeping tonight.
Sorry! Impossible to find a time that's nice for every time zone 😆😅
@@Sifps nah its worth it haha.
I seen many film’s but this is really great I will watch the rest when I’m feeling lonely
It’s the type of thing you can watch over and over, but nothing feels better than the first time you see it
¿Fui el unico que se regreso al episodio 1 y a los cortos para ver desde el principio esta obra de arte?, gran trabajo a todo el equipo
I can’t stop revisiting this beautiful film. It’s beyond beautiful and the hard work put into it is extremely visible. Once again, amazing job.
this animation is so insanely professional oh my god it seriously feels like im watching a film. good job holy shit
Thanks so much!!
Oh wow! This looks absolutely stunning and amazing and just indescribably great.
OKAY THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST ANIMATED SHORTS THAT I HAVE *EVER* SEEN. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!! BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN! BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED!!! BEAUTIFULLY VOICED!!! I CAN SEE HOW MUCH HEART AND SOUL YOU'VE PUT INTO THIS!!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND INSPIRING!!! I LOVE ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS!!!! THEY'RE ALL SO FUN AND CHARMING!!! THE STORY IS SO ENGAGING!!!! WHAT HAPPENED AT THE END? WAS THE BUFFALO REALLY A GHOST WAITING FOR HIS AFTERLIFE??? WHAT HAPPENED IN THIS WORLD??? THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!! BEAUTIUFL!! THRILLING! STUNNING!!!!
i love how much is conveyed with only a few characters and a few settings, its master-level story telling IMO.
The first time i saw the 1&2 episodes all those year ago, it really left an impression on me, and it really makes me over-joyed to know that the story is not over
Art & Music here really do compliment each other here to a perfect degree, everything produced around Tales of Zale has such charm, joy, and an indescribable mood to it, feels sorta like a mystery, but without the overdone and prolonged suspense, but at the same time it feels like a fairy tale almost.
Thanks for creating such wonderful animations, it really has been a joying watching them all~ Greatly looking forward to more as well~
2:38 scourges allycats vibes-
9:11 Holy shit. I wasn't expecting that... but i guess, those things aways come when you're not expecting...
Очень красиво нарисовано!❤ Я бы хотел увидеть полнометражный мультфильм в такой стилистике!
this channel, and this video is the main thing that inspired me to make animations, i have admired this and have wanted to do work of this quality since i saw this.
𝕎𝕒𝕚𝕥...𝕤𝕠 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕓𝕦𝕗𝕗𝕒𝕝𝕠 𝕕𝕚𝕖𝕕...?🥺

Love the simple art style, varied perspectives / angles, & the endearing characters.
Lovely film.
Valió la espera espera me gusta mucho el estilo que tiene,las voces de los personajes les queda muy bien y los efectos del ruido y los colores son hermosos un trabajo bien hecho ❤🙏
This was amazing, its got alot of emotion in it, it's rare to find animation's like this but i love it! amazing work!!
9:46 One of Zale’s family members? :o
