It's like im in my younger teens again coming home from school looking for the next maple series to watch, thank you, for making me feel again like in those times, and may your motivation never dies out, only increases to finish this mastercrafted series and do even more things!
savouring every scenes... lovely after a day's work
If there's one thing that I really appreciate about maple projects, it's the ability to be able to tell a riveting story, and I can tell that something wonderful is on the way. Dez - this was amazing, and the rest of the cast did absolutely wonderful. I know most of the time we're always joking around in our interactions, but you have my full support. I'm looking forward to seeing what you'll come up with next.
So impressed you can maintain such high-quality visuals and storytelling for +15min, not many people can say they've done that! The voice actors all did great as well.
Congrats to you and the crew, I'm looking forward to ep2 :D.
You better be....Bish you're in it.
I''m looking forward to the completion of SOUVENIRS series. I absolutely love it!
Omg, I would have never thought I'd encounter a new maple series while watching the old one's. I badly miss this kind of animation😭💓✨
i'm not crying, you're crying. so amazing 🥲
Woahhhh maple story ♡♡♡ I miss it so much ♡♡♡ HIGHLY UNDERRATED ♡♡♡ amazing work, from voice acting, camera shots, and soft music and the writing ☆☆
the way you animated this is amazing and you have a real talent
OHMYGOD YESSSS ITS BEEN SO LONG SINCE I WATCHED A MAPLE SERIES
WOOWWW! I legit haven't logged into my account for 3 years and the day I do I get to see this masterpiece?! It's so exciting to see a Maple series after so long! The animation, voice acting, storytelling?! *Chefs kiss* Everyone did an excellent job!! Excited to see where this story goes!
this makes me so happy that ppl still make maple story videos😽
Wahh I used to watch maplestory series all the time when I was younger and I wanted to see if people still made them, and holy crap this is like a whole nother level!! T_T the editing, lighting, and camera shots are all sooo beautiful and well done, and the voice acting is amazing as well (like seriously this is such a good cast,, i am awed SKJFDHDSF, i especially love toris voice ) major kudos to you guys
cant believe people still make maple series
Great video! I really enjoyed it!
I love this!!! Been years since I have seen a good MapleStory Series💙🥲✨keep it up I look forward to more episodes
This is so pretty!! God, the animation and voice work is so beautiful and thoughtful, and I can’t believe Maple animations are still being made in 2022 haha. This brings back so much nostalgia for me, I cannot wait to see more of this and your work!
Now, this is a pretty series! I can tell there was a lot of love put into it and I really respect the care one has for one's series. I was quite surprised to find out there was voice acting too LIKE HAWT DAYUM that's like dessert for a buffet I'm about to eat (Looking for a voice cameo as an extra?? keke kidding cause I would be horrible tbh lol) Anyway, fricken captivating if I have to say so myself, already the animation is top tier and easily captures my attention in the first 3 seconds. (TLV could never LOL). The cast of characters, even down to the extras are so colorful and full of life like they feel like real people and I love that so much. The emotional journey that this series has within it is one that will definitely grab people by the hearts and I hope that more will discover it and check it out. I commend you and all who took part in this project a job well done and I wish you luck in the continuation of it!
I came here with my ancient account to speak as I felt it would be more meaningful since I was originally a maple series animator. Thank you for listing TLV as an inspiration, it really warms my heart when I see people mention it after so long. You're very talented and I wholeheartedly believe you're going to continue to make great things.
(Also you know a series is good when I can get caught off guard by a cliffhanger hee hee)
AHHHHHH WHAT A BIIIG INSPO! I'm so happy you watched!!! 😭💖 TYSM!!!!
I'm in denial about the episode ending. Everything is goooorgeeeous..victoria's mah fav. great work dez!
Can’t wait for this series to emotionally destroy me ❤️
I’m hooked and impressed with the way this was made. The quality of this is just amazing! Nice work, Dez.
Oh wow - Big shout out and mad respect to Dez and all the voice casts!
I can tell that so much love and care has been put into the animation, the voice acting and the storytelling.
I love everything in this episode.
Looking forward to see the next episode and get more emotional feel trips.
a maple series 😫😫😫😫
This is a full memory, I think it is really doing a good job, as far as the current series is concerned, there is not much. Many of the stories in the look back, found that there is a new story, and let me re-energize my God, it's really, really shocking. I hope you can continue to do so, I will look forward to looking forward to your new story every day
Such an interesting first episode! I'm looking forward to seeing more of it. I like the kinda slice-of-life vibe, and it visually looks great too! Everyone involved is so talented, and I think I watched one of your MVs a couple years ago, it's nice to find your work again!
Also I love the little detail of the voice actors signing the chalkboard! That's so clever :D
HOLY CRAP, A NEW SERIES !! looks and sounds great so far 💕
This is so good. The animations, the voice actors/actress. I love it so much! Good job i cant wait to see the next episode! I know by the end of the series I’ll be crying buckets.
I'm glad I looked at old MMVS haha to come across such an awesome series like yours. I'm really excited to see what happens next :, ) and so grateful to see a maple series brings back memories and joy.
SIIICK FIRST EPISODE Love the performances and music choice. Super nice animation and cinematography, it felt really nice and flowy! Congratulations on releasing the first episode :D !
how dare you end it off like that heLLO
but that aside the animation quality was SO good and consistent. LIKE LOOK AT THAT 3D!! i'm so excited to see where this till go!!
Okay this is a first for me. Full voice acting cast in a maple animation. Serious kudos to all voice actors/actresses as you the animator! This is some top-notch stuff. Lots of love, care, and patience seems to have been put into this. And as a sucker for stories I'm definitely hooked. Looking forward to ep.2 wonderful job to all involved in making this come alive
EVERYONE DID SUCH AN AMAZING JOB SDJKNDF I'm so hype for the next ep 😭😭 It's obvious how much work you've put into this Dez and this is godly. Take your time and don't rush yourself too much! It'll all work out in the end~
everyone did an amazing job
Cool I’ve emotionally recovered, time to rewatch 😭
Man this was so good! Huge props to you and all the voice actors for doing such a great job on this first episode! I can't wait for future episodes!
Great music choices. Ow my lines. Everyone did amazing with their lines and delivery. Overall good episode, great work putting it all together.
it was so beautifully made AAAA im so glad you were able to finish it, i hope you find the energy to continue it, cant wait to see more
Ah so beautiful! Eager to see more
That was really good. Great job Dez, and great job to the voice actors and actresses.
I'm looking forward to Episode 2. (And a casting call for a new character(s) hopefully... 👀)
👀yes
It's been a year since you replies "yes".@@pepsi101loser
THIS WAS WONDERFUL! Great job Dez and team 🥺
i'm not really into the maplestory scene anymore, but came across this gem by chance! even from a slight outsider perspective you can tell that it's extremely polished, the pacing is nice and there's definitely an appeal to it!
one thing that i did notice was in the office scene, the sleeping character in the back seemed small in size rather than further away. i wonder if more subject focus blur would help? i do see it being used slightly in the beginning which is quite nice, along with being used throughout scenes where they move around. also loving the camera work and panning. the one around 4 minutes in was pretty cool, loved that. use of lighting is pretty nice too, like with the PC in the beginning. everything's really bright and nice to look at. great job!!
I’m amazed everybody’s got like high quality microphones compared to a couple years ago in maple series 😭😭
That was amazing! I can’t wait to watch more!
amazing omg
Idk why but the vibes, music, colors, perspectives... reminds me of Life is Strange. I am soo hooked. I love this. You've done an incredible job and your animation style is so unique and beautiful.❤❤❤ enjoyed everything about it! Can't wait for the next part, but don't burn yourself out 💕
OMG W EPISODE CANT WAIT TO SEE THE NEXT ONE!!!
You built like a spam bot ong
just finished wtaching ofmgogmfog ur so good 😭😭 LOVE THIS SO MUCH SO EXICTED FOR FUTURE EPSNRJFNS
waitwaitwait huuuuhhhh a mapleseries in 2021???
This aint Souvenirs Episode 2!
all jokes aside, this was actually so cute wtfff ;n; The environments and comps for some of these shots were amazingly executed.
That javier guy sounds like a simp tho idk he kind of weird bro
ya he sound like u
But what about Episode 3?
Alright back here to make my comment! And also rewatching because hehe… I just wanna say before getting into some of the detail I noticed, I love the amount of perspective, the blurs and lighting to achieve the mood and tone of the scene :D Some shots, like a 45 degree angle from above at around the 3:53 mark; it’s super interesting and nice to see despite being so short and I love that effort for such a small amount of screen time ^^ Not to mention the voice acting
You have such a good eye for detail omg
I always look forward to your comments 😭💕😩
The kind words are greatly appreciated!!
Also, can’t confirm or deny any theories.... but you’re definitely in the right direction with Emily.... ;)
@@pepsi101loser Awww thank you! For MS Series like for Nightscape, I like to put in just that bit more effort to see all the little details since making a series itself is such an arduous task, and I like to do it in a way to 'give back' (but sometimes I do purposely omit the petty stuff like spelling - do you want proofreaders? XD) And besides, its fun seeing the little details and how things will go, even if it's not really correct :)
Also I did not expect you to say I was on track with any one of my theories, since like you said, can't confirm nor deny any of them, but here's Emily xD ... Oh poor bbyyy
Victoria best girl
Wow. wow this is just so good what the fuck. theres so much detail and effort in the animation and everything is just put so well together !!! the transitions are so smooth and the scenery is sooo beautiful ?!?! GOOD JOB DES WHAT THE FUCKKK & a good job to the VAs too!! everyone did so amazing,, this was such a good first episode. never thought I’d see a maple series animated sooo well
😭😭😭 wtf THANKS BIH! Where you BEEN!!! We miss you!!!
ITS JUST. AAAA ITS OUT AND ITS SO GOOD
THIS IS SICK
Nice animations and the voices are good. Got to love that teenage high school drama with the anime-esqeue vibe: The sitting on the roof for lunch trope, Japanese style classrooms, class rep. A bit confused on why Charlie has the mask unless he's sick. I'm sure that will be explained later. Also why he's allowed to carry the camera first day of school. Probably be explained later.
Summary: I love it and hope to see the next one.
AHHHH EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD 😭😭😭
Since YT took our ability to see dislike, I don't dislike this video at all but rather...
This is sick as hell. You did it, Dez! Looking forward to the next episode. :^)

Animate it
Nostalgic everywhere. Learning maplestory for the first time as a kid. Playing through it from then to now. Waiting and watching these maple stories and animations and growing so fond of it. Watching this after a long while I am a matured person now brings me back, and brings me motivation to something like this. Awesome work and great VOs. Very excited to watch more, and very much appreciate you. Cheers!
