I initially made this in response to a analysis, decided it needed its' own comment (If I ignore something it's because I don't think it's entirely relevant)
I Believe this animation is about self deceit and the loss of people or opportunity because of false personas. This is because of the combination of the lyrics and the animation coinciding heavily, with the character tending to specifically mouth out words of the song.
The character is the one speaking at the start, tired and ragged underwater (Underwater meaning she's under pressure and is sustaining problems), stating something lazy being willing to leave their lights on (Burns electricity, makes it harder to sleep, generally doesn't seem to care, she's too tired to care).
First appearance of cacti, and a single balloon. I think it's hard to interpret what this means right now, and will touch on it later when the other cacti come up.
The next scene is darker, getting lunch, seeming to enjoy it, then being dragged down after a set of eyes appears within ramen. This could be from things like ptsd and etc, but I think it more deals with guilt or feeling out of place in the situation. She still obviously enjoys the ramen, but when she's being looked at, or starting to enjoy herself, she drowns. The character repeating the lyrics ahh man, sad about leaving that enjoyment.
The lyrics now state, "I think that I like you" During "I think that" the character is looking in the mirror, with the person looking seeming tired, worn down, and the person looking back being confident, bold, etc. Showing a split in the character and how she perceives herself. With the name of the song itself being Two time, we can connect the dots and assume a bit that the character is holding up the name a bit. (Now having two selves assumingly with one who's faking). Next the lyrics state "I Like you" which we are greeted by one of the things that made her feel like she was drowning, she is covering her mouth, "Like" is being scratched out. The character regrets saying this, having had it come from a part of herself she doesn't understand or respect. Assumably being her reflection, someone strong and confident being able to say the words not realizing the effect they will have.
The effects of her words and the symbolism behind the cacti start to make sense now. 3 Balloons are seen, with one cacti, after another voice replies "you do?". The character states "yeah" causing the balloons to back away from the cacti, showing that this persona is causing the loss of opportunity and potentially friends or loved ones, it scares them, it seems wrong or out of the blue.
"But something bothers me bout the way you lick your envelopes so!" This is where the meaning of the animation can completely change. If it does stay true to the lyrics, the character is analyzing the person they state they liked overly critically, finding something not to like, the other side of their persona taking over and deciding they don't like them. (Two timing the person). This would make the envelope licking scene is about how the character themself licks envelopes weirdly (Who the hell licks an envelope like that), and proves their being overcritical, unreasonable. If not, it becomes much more about what the original post stated.
"I'm out on the block again, so hopped up that I can't pretend" "Two Time!!" The character has returned to doing something, being hopped up on something (presumably her tendency to self deceive herself into having a persona that she doesn't like Two timing herself) Unable to pretend, it shows that she's sad, unable to hide how she feels in the moment, laying on the floor not caring about staying current in her life. Depressed. Her persona showing again, proclaiming her vice "Two Time!"
Next we learn that they stay friends, seeing a pinky promise. I see this as the character over criticizing after declaring they like them, then deciding to stay friends, but not happily, unable to decide whether or not they want this person. This obviously hurts the character "Problem that you can't defend", the character being unable to find something that can stay with them, as their constant playing drives away relationships that she both does and does not want according to what mood she's in. She scratches the cactus, and frowns after happily waving, showing the disposition between acting happy in her persona, and having wants she can't get filled.
She then asks if someone is ok, she herself having a gaping hole in her chest. Two timing herself asking something to another in hopes of gaining something she wants, that she herself will stop or take away. Lacking, and caring for others, even though she may actively be hurt, or regret it.
"Whose heart could I break today?" She can't stop two timing herself and by association whoever gets too close.
This line is what drove me to think this was it in the first place. "stay friends" This line is showed again, but the artist has friends disappear and "stay" become underlined. The thought that she just wants someone to stay, but they never do. The balloon being in her reach after it usually is too far, is spikey and harms her, going from something to chase, to a reason to be sad. This and the mirror scene I believe really make this relate closer to the lyrics, wanting someone to stay, but being unable too because of a persona that differs from when she's alone.
Reinforcing that "Problem that you can't defend" reappears with the character seeming younger, with pigtails, the problem having been there for a long time, other people not being willing to work through the two timing and stay with her period. (A nonsensical hope, but it's still present). The character is still covered in bandages, hurt from her self deception crying, unable to keep something because of self sabotage.
I take this as the character displaying she was initially hurt by being unable to having someone stay because of who she was. This gave birth to a persona that is able to get people close, but is a curse of itself, also not letting them stay long. I think this animation conveys the songs lyrics by showing two timing as being as personal and external pain. Making the person two timing feel insane because they can't control a part of themselves, and the person dealing with being two timed feeling as if they are dealing with two separate people. With the character saying two things at different times. Getting balloons only close enough too not pop, the distance being a pain that the character deeply regrets.
… thank you so much for your thoughtful analysis!! I'm so happy you people try to put my art into words, I feel much more understood!! I'm glad you brought up the “stay friends” part since that was the scene I related to the most when drawing this!! ^^
this. is. amazing.
was not expecting that lmao
woah!
Dang impressive!!!
I've seen many versions of this meme, but this one feels special. So many of these shots caught my eye, from composition to color. You can see where a lot of thought and care went- wonderful!
Holy shit, HI PJ!
hey pj!! i agree lol
Meme?
Meme? THAT'S A FUCKING SONG.
@@NihilTK read the title of the video
Your style, coloring and composition are amazing: they are expressive and so pleasant to look at. You are a huge inspiration. Thank you for sharing your art
no replies on a 3.1k likes comment?..I've fixed that issue!!!!!
@@stevekwun thank you!
I thought it was weird that it has only 2 comments. But then I remembered that the previous guy had written a poem and I realised that maybe everybody was just to tired after reading his theories to write something.
Damn it, that bastard influenced my way of writing.
They didn’t make the song. But yeah I love the style
This helped.or inspired me to draw better to a style like yours : ]
Okay, I know it was made a long time ago but this one really hit me. especially at 0:45. it reminds me of when I overwork myself or force myself to stay awake for my friends or studying. it also reminds me of whenever I am just ready to let go of everything- just how I see it though of course
That is so valid dog. Personally it reminds me of eating too many carbs before bed and waiting until 3am for my stomach to digest enough for me to sleep but that’s just me bro.
@@trulymoody7982 :skull:
The fact that someone made a long analysis of this animation meme is amazing. Great work!
literally

congratulationn oon the 100k subs
CONGRATTTSSS
I just watched your vid 2 mins after you commented this, congratulations!!
😎
Im not surprised, the quality of your content is really worth 100k :)
this is so well thought out and so mesmerizing i love things with “decodeable” meanings, it just gives it a secret essence to discover and makes it all better. the colors, meanings, examples and artstyle are so gorgeous
I really like how it’s different every scene and not so repetitive, which really makes it nice expecting something new happening next with its own meaning :)
Oufdhfh give me a second to recover because this is stunning
First off the colours are so soft and muted and fit the song so nicely?? weirdly enough??
And I absolutely love the way you draw the character - it's so simple and cohesive and nice on the eyes in the best way possible
Also the way you draw hair is lovely
And I don't know how to explain this one, but I really like how so many shots are creative and compelling in a way that goes beyond just being aesthetically pleasing (which they still are). Like the underwater train?? The disintegrating umbrella? The letter falling through the door onto her face??? And oh god the cactus shot is incredibly cool and the "you ok" is hauntingly beautiful and I am.
simply running out of words to do you justice
I just think it's quite difficult to come up with unique storytelling within the constraints of an animation meme and you do it so so well
Anyways, suffice it to say I am entirely delighted by this in its entirety and I hope you know you're incredibly skilled at what you do
HAFHGSHHF WOWW, IM SO HAPPY YOU LIKED IT!! ^^ I'M GOING TO CRY WHAT
This is what keeps me motivated to draw and improve, I’m glad you enjoyed it and took your time to analyze it!!
fucking epic
you're an insanely talented artist and animator but man your directing skills are actually insane, like the aesthetics and composition of everything work so well
Your artstyle is so relaxing yet dynamic - And your characters are so refreshingly simple yet uniquely recognizable! It's so nice to watch :'D
The way the animation leads your eye to the next shot
is nice
that's the only thing that I usually try and find now after watching
a specific video on how to lead your viewer's eyes to an animation
to make it more fluid and more lifelike
It's pretty cool
Why you write like that? You want to feel special or something?

Animatic
This video blessed my heart and has kept me going for 7 months. Whenever I feel low or sad, I come to this masterpiece of an animation, which is NOT a meme, and it automatically brightens my mood. As well as this comment section, which I completely agree with, being so chill. Im not looking for likes. I just hope this could possibly help anyone. As well as trying to thank crymelt for making this. You are amazing. Dont let anyone take that away from you. Set and accomplish your goals. Thank you crymelt and everyone else who sees this. I hope this made your day.
I am especially attached to 0:29. It really hits me hard
She's hugging the cactus, which symbolizes acceptance to the pain she suffered. She even tightly grips it, as if she forced herself to accept it. Her stale face also imply that she gave up resisting, as she piled her raw emotions inside her chest
It's... not the good kind of acceptance. It's a moment when you realize that hiding your emotions is better than releasing it. It affects you very bad emotionally, since it just means when your emotions went overload, it all blow into this one angry mess, deteriorating you mental health more. I have this point of view since junior high, and oh boy how easily I go emotional.
I rewatched the animation plenty of times, but everytime I see the particular scene I just cried a little. Maybe it felt so relatable for me, or maybe I'm just over interpretating it.
Anyways, good animation 10/10
Wow. That was a really nice and impressive analysis
English teachers be like:
She is clinging quite tightly to her pain. She cant let any of it go, as much as it leaves her battered and bruised. Those memories are all she has left of what has now passed. It's really quite evocative imagery, the way she's quite happy to hold it at first. Then almost tears away at it.
Its interesting to consider just how the cactus itself is a beautiful metaphor. She becomes like one herself. Prickly on the outside, and hard-shelled, in order to preserve all her watery insides from the harsh climate of the outer world.
I used to be like that too, until one day, I just became numb. I can't feel anything even if I wanted to, even in the face of actual, tangible tragedy. And like you said, the suffering is all you know, especially when it took over half your life, all of the important years that were meant for finding your purpose. All of those years were spent in misery. You learn to accept it when it fails to destroy you.
Nah, she just likes the cactus
I cannot tell you how stunning this looks. The animation, shading, composition, color, meaning, it all works together so well and looks amazing. This makes me inspired to keep practicing animation more, you’re doing a great job!!
Это просто чудо!😊 Лучше этой музыки я не слышала.
I keep getting this video on my homepage, and every time I do I watch it a couple times on repeat. IDK exactly what I love about it, but I do truly love it.
yeah same here, idk why I keep coming back to it haha
I enjoy the different color schemes you use, they’re all so gorgeous and soft, and the animations are so creative and beautiful. Youre truly a one of kind animator
this is so gorgeous I love what you've done with the composition on this !! >>
this is absolutely amazing... reminded me of certain people who hurt me and i let them because i was too afraid to let go.
Man I saw this video yesterday (when it came out) in my recommended and fell in love with your art style, I know everyone has been saying it but the expressions and the cuts and all of that just looks really nice. I’ve always wanted to try and get good at drawing but just haven’t had the motivation, but seeing what I could create with a couple years of practice and now I’m going to try and get serious about this. But enough about me and back to you, the animation is just amazing, my favourite scene is probably the one where she says “two time” and the claps syncing with the music. I have no idea why I like that scene as much as I do but it’s just so crisp. You’re really talented at this, keep it up!
ahh, thank you!! Practice depends from person to person, I just think I had high expectations, especially at the start so I would try animating complicated stuff a a beginner… which isn't a good learning process... so uh, remember, health comes first, but I definitely recommend challenging yourself!
good lucks!!
@@crymelt thank you for the advice! I have big ideas for things i’ve always wanted to draw/animate, but I think I should start by finding some semblance of an artstyle, haha. I hope you continue to do well and create more of these amazing animations, watch out for your own health, too. Like you said, health comes first
@@crymelt "health comes first"
Fighter reference ?
I love your art style so much and the development through this animation, with the cacti and balloons, genius!! your drawings are just so amazing I want to screenshot every frame to appreciate it fully! even the little movements like the lollipop to the mouth are done so well, you’re such an inspiration!!!
This is one of my favorite Jack Stauber songs and I love how you continued the story and made it your own. I really love the symbolism in this with the cacti and balloons and letters and all of it. Great job.
I love your art style, it's the perfect level of detail. I especially like the part with the magnifying glass. Thank you for sharing with us. This inspires me, I hope one day I'll be able half as good as you.
The metaphors and composition is so beautiful I swear
Something about your art creates a feeling of time that I never knew I had, that I lost
As a random ass girl that can't draw, I am absolutely obsessed with your art style, coloring, animation and overall every single thing in this video
Everything about your style, color schemes, and animation is just beautiful, i can tell you poured your heart into this and im so glad that i get to see a masterpiece like this. thank you for this :)
After so many times watching those over the last few weeks that I have lost track I feel like I need to give due compliments. I love the way you do transitioning and imagery and completely ADORE your artstyle, I just feel like I can't ever get enough of it.
This is so beautiful as always, I admire how clean everything looks as well as that gorgeous color palette... I have no words to describe how much I love this!!!
I love the animation also, it is really smooth, the expression, the artstyle and how original is the imagery!!!!
sorry, I know it's quite long but there is just too many things I love from this
This is so beautifully done and fits in with the timing of the music so well. Also reflects its theme and really builds off it beautifully. You created a whole microcosm that sprouts out of a few vague phrasings. The artstyle and the choice of symbolic imagery is all quite captivating and evocative.
This really makes me wanna dabble in animation.
Damn, very well animated. The pinkies together during the first “stay friends?” line is painful to look at because you can tell that the hand on the left isn’t reciprocating. You did a good job capturing that kind of subtlety
This animatic really captures what Jack stauber is know for so well, it’s complex and detailed with meaning in every frame while still being a very beautiful and enjoyable experience, even if, like with staubers works, the meaning might not be obvious on first inspection, not to mention the animation is so fucking good like god your understanding of 3 dimensions and color realy shines through this is so good seriously I can’t stop watching it
your artstyle is beautiful!!! it doesn't matter if it changes, it's part of the process ^^
lowkey down bad for ur oc o//o
that lollipop part o////o
I love the way you play around with lighting, colours and the bg's !!! they're so pretty and it makes it very visually pleasing !it also adds to the metaphor behind it which if i had more time i would psychoanalyze (lmao)
i love how when each scene changes, there's always somehting from the previous scene in there. lovely lil touch
you're doing great, keep going crymelt
HEHEHEH STOPP ^////^ THANK YOU!!
I don’t know exactly how to word it but this is so lovely???? Like, it’s not often a piece of media just like, speaks to me in a way I’m not sure how to describe, but you really did that with this.
oh my god i literally aspire to be able to animate like this, the art style it self is so unique and amazing, but the animation quality ties it all together, i hope you can fulfil whatever your goal is with animation.
Holy crap this made me feel things. The song is really good and your animation syncs up with it flawlessly, your style is cute and the imagery is both kinda creepy in it's surrealness but also kinda nice. The subway underwater especially, very trippy. The art is fantastic too, expressive and pleasant to look at.
This makes me wanna draw again. Thank you
there's something very comforting about this, and all your art really, that keeps me coming back
Your style, from your color choice to your eye design...something about it induces an emotion I cannot process when combined with Jack Stauber.
It's like a combination of relevance, manufactured nostalgia, and just a deep seeded need to befriend a non existant person who's suffering. This girl in the animation doesn't exist yet I feel like I must give her a hug and say "things will get better soon."
The best part? I am all for it.
Just wanted to applaud you for how amazing this animation is, and how it is able to convey so many emotions in such a small period of time. It feels oddly nostalgic to me too, keep it up :)
This just hits all my check boxes for an awesome animation. You style is so cool!
potato
thank you for the analysis
....that was impressive, i'll be sure to strive for your writing skill
Im not gonna pretend like I read all of this but from what I read this is very well thought out and based on the pin possibly correct. Props to you and good luck on your geography homework!
You should change your profession to journalist wow like wow
I didnt read it all cause im doing my homework too right now but the start got me like “Damn 😳 im starting to admire this person’s existence”
love your analysis
i love your animation style and i love the music choice! you are so expressive with your art and your colors are well done! you are such an inspiration!
edit: i forgot to mention how much i LOVE the scene with the mail and the door, its so creative and i know that perspective, *especially* animating from that had to be difficult and it turned out so COOL
This always pops up every now and then, and im obligated to watched it everytime, such a good animation.
I'm absolutely in awe of how smooth and pleasing to the eyes your art is! It all flows together so well with the colour palettes and and scenery. The first bit that really blew my mind though I have to say was the bit at 0:02
Wow! I love this! The animation is so smooth! But what I want to congratulate you on is the storytelling; I have never seen this character before, I do not know who they are, but now I have seen this animation and it makes me able to empathize with the character and the setup would make any viewer care for, and want to help the character though whatever they are struggling with. Amazing job!
I SUCCEED LETS GOOO!! (THANK YOUU!)
I don't know why i have a deep feeling of connection to this piece of animation.I have a deep feeling of appreciation for this. Everything about it takes me away ,Thank You.
this is the first video I've seen by you, it's an absolute masterpiece omg. I love the colour palette that you chose, and the whole animation is just so pleasing to watch! I swear I could just screenshot each frame and make it my wallpaper forever. thank you for sharing this with almost 100,000 of us :)) definitely earned yourself a subscriber
there is no way you could be unsure about your own art style, I ADORE it, literally one of the rarest and unique style I've ever seen.
I've seen it so many times like every day idk why i keep watching it, probably the art style is to good
Your art is so amazingly beautiful. Something about the colors and shading used makes it feel almost like…what things used to look like to me when I was a kid I guess?
Like the colors themselves seem even more beautiful than usual.
You have a genuine and unique style. Don’t let anyone lead you astray from your hearts intentions with your art.
i'm really watching this in loop, this animation is cativating with the music and the tracing is perfect
There’s just something about the mix of the animation (it’s just got a style that I like and is really smooth), and the music that keeps bringing me back
the song hits so much harder, when its not only feeling nostalgic because of the general feeling of the song, but also feels nostalgic because it is nostalgic and makes you think about the time you first heard it
Love this style! The art paired with the timing is what really keeps pulling me back, though-- short, snappy, in sync moments, smooth movement, mood contrast. I just keep rewatching. :)
i absolutely ADORE the artstyle.
I love the symbolism that you use in this video, very well made, very creative, we need more talented people like you putting these animations too life!
I am in LOVE with this style!
The meaning and the imagery are fantastic!
I love this art style. It's pleasing to look at, the colours, face shape, eyes, nose, animation. Beautiful.
AAA I LOVE THIS
ive rewatched this so many times, youre amazing! i hope you keep making these :D
Your art style is fantastic!! Everybody is unsure about their own creatives, but the thing is it's easier to see how beautiful it is from an outside view ;)
i really love these stylized animations, awesome work
i really like the art style in its minimal and expressive presentation.
the relaxing colors, deliberate movement and smart composition
i kinda wanna see a small narrative with those elements
maybe consider a one shot?
great job!
0:37 is such a beautiful scene. This image sums everything up very beautifully: fragile as a balloon, but harmful as a cactus; the cold persona she created to protect her fragile heart.
The rest of my interpretation:
0:06 In an hostile environment (the 3 cactus), being pure and innocent (a balloon) is the unusual, the strange. Probably symbolizes trauma; a bad family, maybe; learning than been weak means being prone to get hurt. This led to the creation a persona hard on the outside (the cactus) to deal with it, someone that does not grow attached to anyone. 0:05 the umbrella breaking may mean fear of being exposed.
0:10 the trauma, the shame (eyes looking at her; she drowns).
0:12 She looks into the mirror. Her reflection doesn´t match her face. One is confident (or so she appears) and the other sad. Two personalities.
0:13 She regrets saying "I like you", and tries to erase it (her sensible side). 0:15 Then she says saying "yeah" openly and without shame, as if she didn´t care (the persona takes control). 0:15 People get away from her because of this, because of this persona. They find her weird.
0:17 She is paranoic of being hurt again, so she over-analyzes the behavior of other people for possible sings of betrayal (looking-glass) even in dumb things like "licking envelopes".
0:23 She is depressed, lying on the floor; people show their discontent with her behavior. 0:02 Just at the beginning she was in the bottom of the ocean, symbolizing the state in which she is currently in.
0:28 (hugging a cactus) This persona, despite her best efforts, does not always work. She still get hurts if someone is bad to her even is it doesn´t seem like it (she´s covered in band aids), and sometimes lashes backs (tearing the cactus skin): the rejection still reaches her. It could also mean resentment towards the person that made her into who she is now, but whom she has come to accept. The hopelessness of the situation.
0:37 the word "stay" is highlighted rashly. Fear of abandonment?, maybe. 0:32 This makes get out of her away to help others, despite her needing the most help and dying inside (giant hole in her chest). 0:31 Red threads guide her hand, as if she was force to do that (anything to not be abandoned again).
0:37 fragile as a balloon, but harmful as a cactus
0:33 She sings "whose heart could I break today": this persona in her fullest.
0:44 And, finally, she wakes up tiredly, as if angry at having to repeat this unhealthy cycle instead of being happy, as would be expected after waking up and starting a new day.
The colours, aesthetics of this video combines so well with the song... I can see this for an hour ✨
Absolutely gorgeous animation, combined with a deep meaning behind the animation, and the fact that it also suits the song despite having a story over it. Impeccable!
Cara, isso é simplismente bem feito!!! Tipo, olha os detalhes em volta, o cénario nos dando conforto. . As cores não tão em destaque, mas ainda assim chama atenção e demostram algo. Talvez tristeza, algo pesado, mesmo que suave e o opaco de uma sala sob um escuro leve. E o traço me parece familiar. Deve ser porque já o vi por aí pelo Pinterest, mas continua INCRIVEL 😭💕♡♡
AAAA i love it! the style. the colour. the smoothness. the sync. the creativity! you have pure talent
the amount of times I've rewatched this is crazy, and each time I love it even more. your animations and art are seriously so cool and the song is my favorite artist? 10/10
Same here.
Thank you crymelt.
When I first watched this, I didn't think much of it. Just another high-quality animation meme. However, it stuck with me, never leaving my mind. I watched it everyday then somebody explained the meaning behind the animation. I realized that I was just like the girl in the video. I realized that I was "Worrying about others despite their own problems" . Since then, I've been on a mental health journey with my friends and family.
tldr: The girl in the video is just like me (fr) and I've been on a journey to solve my problems.
Thank you so much.
edit: its been going really slowly. I'm not sure if I've made much progress but i feel really different now
I'm glad this animation brought you to better understand yourself, take care, and good luck on your journey of healing ^^!
I'm so happy I helped in a way
I don't know if anyone will ever see this, but I'm glad to be on this side of youtube. It's nice knowing that no matter how alone we feel in one thing, we can always find videos like these where we see a whole community of people who don't know one another bond over feeling and appreciation for art and one another. Stay safe you guys!
I love everything about this video! The colours, the emotions, the scenes, the art and art style, how it flows so well with the song!!! I love replaying this ☆
I love the feeling of psychological comfort that this video gives me... 😊
this animation feels sooo nostalgic for some reason, btw well done! You managed to express visually the lyrics perfectly!
There’s a theme of past difficulties in the first few scenes like the train and such, but I’m really interested with the scenes about letters and envelopes. She licks the envelope then looks at the camera, seemingly nervous, then the truck scene, with what look like letters flying out the trunk, this could be in reference to the past where she used to give out lots of messages and now only sends very few, then she’s laying by the door letting the incoming mail land on her, yet she doesn’t open them. I think this shows her removing herself from those that care about her, or enough to send a letter. The cactus them might represent a harmful relationship? As the other balloons (friends?)are driven away, she stays, enduring the pain, covering them with bandaids and hugging the cactus. None of this is for certain I just thought it would be fun to try to decipher it
hehe, I'm glad you chose to mention the part about the letters and envelopes, I think those scenes are one that I thought the most of! ^^
Задумка, стилистика и цвета просто шикарны!!! Это не анимация, это что-то большое! Просто шедевр! ❤️✨
Okay, idk, I love it. I'm trying to explain it logically but there's just so much visual and audial candy I'm just
This 0:31 reminds me of when I give too much of myself to others and make sure they are okay more than even myself when I’m sad.
This is amazing. I have little else to say aside from that I love this aesthetic and it's paired with the song so perfectly.
That smile at the "Two Time" as much as sad it's really charming. I just can't tell why.
been 10 months and I'm still coming back to this. It scratches a very slecific itch in my brain.
Everything about this is perfect. From the art style, to the colors, to the animation ❤
this was the FIRST animation meme i ever watched!! thank you for making this masterpiece!
This animation is just amazing in general. The style and colour palette is just so nice. It gives a comfy feeling but the pictures makes me a bit uneasy in a good way (if you get what I mean.) the animation is stuck in my head now. The art is beautiful, and in different parts of the lyrics there is a new part instead of the animation being repeated. Keep up the good work!!
0:37 is that a locacaca? (sorry i just had to comment, btw your artstyle is amazing and it is really pleasant to watch)
holy hell i love your videos i cant even elaborate its so good. the visual metaphors and the style are so great
I love your sense storyboarding and direction of the whole animation, even down to the small details like the balloons moving away from the cactus during those few Beats. You had an idea and went on a whole ass spring lmfao. I adore this, please keep it up :)
I've been following you on instagram for a long time and your art has been an inspiration to me, I'm really happy that you've gone viral and I hope you can reach higher and higher 💞

the symbolism, the art style, all of this. absolute chef’s kiss, and i hope you’re doing well.
One of the beautiful and majestic piece of art I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Deserves to be in the best museum ever
Замечательно, просто замечательно. Стиль, детали, музыка. Возможно, самая лучшая анимация под two time. И это учитывая сколько их вышло за эти долгие и не очень 4 с лишним года. Замечательная анимация на прекрасную песню.
Wow, the art style is super cute and the visual depictions are incredible. Most videos like this I see don't capture that artistic side of things nearly as much, so this was an awesome watch.
Невероятно приятная и красивая анимация. Пересматриваю это видео уже несколько дней подряд. У меня апатия уже несколько недель и почему то после просмотра этого видео мне становится намного легче. Спасибо crymelt!!!!! I'm sorry, I don't know English well, so I wrote in Russian🥲
this is an amazing animation, you managed to put a lot of details in less than a minute!!! that is incredible!!!
when i saw "figther", i was amazed at how good it was, and i said "it can't get any better than this", and you managed to surprise me!!!
It shows how you've improved drawing, this animation is much more fluid than the previous one, and in just one month it almost has the same views (although over time I'm sure it will surpass it)
all the details in the animation are fantastic, so symbolic, so much so that it's hard for me to choose a favorite, but among the ones I like the most are the moment where she eats pho, the moment where she licks the envelope, and when she says "two time" and claps her hands
I also like the moment where his hand is tied by several threads, I think it's something typical in your animations
and I think that's it, that's my opinion. I never comment on a video because I'm really too shy to do it, but this video really deserves it
and sorryyyyy for commenting a month after it came out, I forgot to subscribe, but now I am and I'll find out as soon as it comes out
I will wait for you to surprise me again, and if you see this (I hope so), greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷
PS: if you don't understand something I said, it's because I'm still learning to speak English, and I had to use a translator to do this
Thank you so much, I’m glad you liked it ^^!!
@@crymelt I keep seeing and seeing this comment and I can't believe you answered me, thank you very much ^^!!!
sorry i had to say it
Man, this animation is S M O O T H the way you... Idk its really good and the first time i watched this i knew it meant something serious
Someone probably already said this but it feels like a toxic relationship “when is it time time to let go” meaning the character is scared to let go of that person.
WARNING!!! Long analysis ( can I even call it that? ) with a lot of mental gymnastics.
I think this is about toxic or possibly even abusive relationships.
In the first scene, we see a character, let's call her B, possibly smoking? Usually when people pick up smoking, they think that smoking is fun, but in reality, smoking is very bad for your health. I think this part is a metaphor for B entering a toxic relationship. At first, she think that the other person, let's call them Q, will treat her well and be a good friend to her, but after a while, Q starts to be toxic and affects her mental health in a bad way. It could also be B smoking to "relieve stress" and trying to cope with the trauma of being abused.
In the second scene, we see B sitting in a dilapidated train that's underwater. I think in this animatic, water represents toxicity or love. After being in that toxic relationship with Q, B has protected herself from the toxicity, in a train. But in doing so, she has also distanced herself from love. The fishes outside the train might represent other people trying to get through to B after she isolated herself. We can also see that B is very tired from isolating herself and sitting in a dingy train that probably smells bad.
In the third scene, we see B's umbrella breaking. What are umbrellas used for? To protect you from the rain. And what is rain made of? THATS RIGHT. WATER! The water represents B's boundaries. Q has broken B's boundaries and is starting to make her feel uncomfortable.
In the fourth scene, we see three cacti and a yellow balloon. The yellow balloon represents B and the cacti represent Q and the toxic people she hangs out with.
In the fifth scene, we see a seemingly harmless bowl of noodles. B happily slurps up the noodles, and then realises that the noodles have eyes! B gasps for air as she is drowning in WATER... aka TOXICITY!!!
This scene represents how B thought that Q was a nice person but then realised Q is a bad person only after she has befriended Q.
In the sixth scene, B says "I think that I like you" and Q responds with "you do?" and B says, in a tired voice as she is drowning in Q's toxicity struggling to breathe, "yeah."
In the seventh scene, we see three balloons and a cactus representing Q. The balloons are other people who see Q for who they are and avoid them.
In the eighth scene, B says that she doesn't like the way Q licks their envelopes. Representing how B is starting to see the red flags.
In the ninth scene, we see letters flying out of B's truck, representing how she showers Q with compliments and good stuff and just B genrally being a great friend..
only for Q to respond with a thumbs down in the next scene.
In the next scene, we see B clapping and saying "Two Time!" iirc to two time means to cheat. Q cheats/tricks B.
In the next scene, we see B and Q making a pinky promise.
In the next scene, B is hugging a cactus representing Q while the lyrics of the song sing "problem that you can't defend" B can no longer defend Q's toxic actions and scratches the cactus in frustration. She has bandages on her face from the previous times Q has hurt her.
In the next scene, we see B's hand tied with string like the arm of a puppet. Representing how Q is controlling her like a puppet.
In the next scene, we see a giant wound in B's body representing how hurt she is by her toxic relationship with Q.
In the next scene, we see B attempting to eat a lollipop shaped like a heart. This represents how she is skeptical of other new relationships thanks to the noodle incident/her toxic relationship with Q. Q sings the lyrics "whose heart could I break today"
Now B is even more sure that her relationship with Q is toxic.
In the next scene, we see someone holding a balloon that is now spiky like a cactus. The balloon represents B. She has become a bit bitter after her toxic relationship with Q. It's quite brief, but a red line underlines the words stay. Representing how Q begs B to stay with them.
In the last scene, we see B. Who now feels weak and helpless like a child, and is attempting to heal after what Q has done to her.
I have been here before it sucks, my heart goes out to anyone who is going through something similar
love your art style and the coloring
I swear.
I can fix her.
All jokes asides, the subtle story behind this and the animation in and of itself is something to applaud. Well done.
