Heya there. Happy Homestuck day to you! Thanks for viewing this piece. I really wanter do animate this scene since my first animation, I did it with A LOT of passion in about... one and a half month I think. I wasn't even sure if i'll managed to get it finished before the 4/13... And honestly I'm really proud of how it turned out. Maybe not perfect but... i think it turned out pretty good. Hope you liked it. Please share it with your friends, reblog or repost it. Right now it's as important as ever. Thanks again for being here. Till the next time!
Phenomenal job, can't wait to see what else you have planned. Hell, even things like S Enter and S WV Ascend would be epic as hell animated in your style
Hey, holy shit?? The Homestuck fandom is insanely lucky to have you. If this had come out during peak Homestuck years i think you could have been one of the biggest animators of the fandom just off the basis of this video alone. Holy fuck. Incredible work!!!
personally i think john shouldnt have attacked, his death being so sudden was well, the gasp moment, and plus it made sure he didn't die heroically as he never managed to do anything
I also thought this, glad to see I'm not the only one. Ofc this animation is still kickass, but it was such an important detail in the comic that John drew his weapon and DIDN'T get to attack before he was killed, because that made sure his death was neither heroic or just.
YOOOO Every time I thought, 'okay, this cannot get cooler' I was swiftly proven wrong. I LOVE the action, and the way the character designs were translated - especially the touches on Bec Noir, like the green glow of his eyes and ring, and the interesting textures that give it almost a toybox vibe. The action felt a little floaty in places but overall is super snappy and exciting! The long shot of the planets in the Medium, goddamn. And then Rose devastating The Battlefield? THE RED MILES AND THE TEXT BOX????? THE DOC SCRATCH INTERLUDE WITH SLICK AND DAMARA AND NEVERMORE???? The way the Grimdark magics is done is super neat too, how it's not just amorphous but visibly tentacular, and its power is almost on a level with BN's, like it feels like GD Rose is legitimately giving him a run for his money, especially at the end. Absolutely phenomenal work!
What a great way to celebrate 4/13. I always was sad this didn't get an animation in the comics, thank you so much for doing this! It is just amazing! Part of me was sad it was so fast paced as sometimes i barely could understand what was going on, but it also felt necessary. Great job!
Holy shit. I just spotted something. At the end of the fight, Jack grabs his face, in pain, obviously. Then, he strikes a dramatic pose, as if there were cameras. But at 4:18, The BLACK QUEEN's hand pokes in from out of frame to grab him by the shoulder. That's why he whirls around all of a sudden. I feel very proud of myself for having spotted this.
@@higztv1166 Who else is there? The Court Droll? The Draconian Dignatary? The only other named Derse residents available are The Hegemonic Brute, who was killed by the Parcel Mistress; the Black King, who Jack beheaded; and the Authority Regulator and Warweary Villein, both of whom Jack doesn't really give a shit about. True, it's just a hallucination, the Queen died in [S] Ascend but no other Derse resident could have that effect on Jack. And before you say "It's Jack's hand", the one armed clown means he only has the right arm that is holding his face.
OH. MY. GOD. my jaw is on the floor im overwhelmed i need to do breathing excercises- holy shit. its SO fast paced i think i need to watch this like 20 times over on slower speed to catch all the details that are here, holy FUCK i don't know if I've just never come across them, but this feels like the first ever animation of this fight??? looking at the canon panels, it looks very cool in the gif implications, and obviously making a full fight scene with special effects in 2d for free would have been insane at the time, plus homestuck (generally) goes for imply not show for epic battles, so i def understand why it is like that, but i never really imagined how COOL it could be. you've also made it more epic and wide ranging and destructive than implied so its not a "faithful" recreation, but i do not care it is so fucking awesome i don't even know what to say. so fucking cool!!!!!! fuck!
i really wanna see [S] Enter reanimated, where Rose is going into Sburb. its still one of my all time favorite scenes in all of Homestuck and the music SELLS everything going on in it
Awesome!!! Jack vs. Rose was such an intense point for the story pre scratch! One of my favorite parts of it all! Great animation as always! Happy 4/13!
This animation is gorgeous. So many nice touches throughout. The shadow Rose trying to distract Jack by making him fall into darkness. The shattering effects on the landscape. The fractal nature of the Red Miles. Those are some of my favorite details. And all the visual spectacle is fantastically choreographed and matches the music well.
bro thanks so much for animating this scene, i always found it freaking stupid that there wasn't a major flash for this fight nor john's fight with jack on the dream bubbles
this was so cool! Your vision of how the fight went is beyond impressive! I loved you including the handmaiden and not-robojack-yet looking as Doc taunts rose!
Its absolutely amazing that you were able to make a whole original battle animation with new coreography and everything and make it look THIS GOOD like holy crap this is just amazing!! the energy and flashyness here are great and the fact it actually lasts the whole song!!!aaah!!!
"On this side of the rift, where the Slayer would not be unmotivated by a compelling duel. ...The Slayer would be compelled, yes. But not outmatched." (paraphrasing like crazy but I do love me a good doc scratch quote) Love this concept!

WOOOOOOOWWWW HILY WHIT YOU DID SUCH AN AMAZING JOB!!!!! THIS IS FACINATING, SUPER COOL AND WELL DONE! There are so many fine details and cool scenes, awesome inclusions that show a ton of care and thought. This is spectacular and an amazing celebration of Homestuck! Rose rocks!!!! THIS WAS SO COOL
This kinda reminds me of when i used to watch people make homestuck characters on Soul Caliber LOL. Havent seen 3d animation of HS since that, this is fucking amazing,
Absolutely amazing, never stop working with your passion. But I do agree with some of the others, the camera was a bit busy on this one. A little too much movement made it a bit hard to watch
This is genuinely mind boggling. I didn't know people were still making homestuck animations at all, much less some of the most impressive ones I've ever seen. The carapacians' designs and the textures on everything in particular are really good details, I like the way that Jack has the texture of fabric stretched over a mannequin and actually looks like he has an insect-like carapace underneath on the torso, especially in [S] Jack: Ascend. Major props dude, keep it up
I wanted to leave a more detailed comment here, so here are some things about this animation that I've found interesting: -No build-up? I liked the slow build-up from the original flash, kinda wish it was here as well -I really like your Grimdark Rose design. She looked really weird in the comic with that grey color palette, but here she looks just about perfect -The way Jack kills John is very natural, you can tell how easy it was for him -Everything is black! They're fighting on a planet where it's supposed to be light 24/7, why is it so dark in here? -0:20 I like how Jack is surprised that someone was able to block his attack, for the first time actually -0:51 What's up with this doppelganger Rose? Is that Rose's new ability or something? And, she was trying to twist Jack's neck, right? looks sick btw -2:00 Have the red miles touched her? It's hard to tell, but I guess no, since she didn't get any wounds -2:55 Technically, Slick can't watch the kids' session through these monitors, buuuut who cares anyway, nice cameo -the way the fight ends looks very similar to one of your previous animations, with Sollux and Eridan, the way they both are trying to redirect each other's attacks is very anime -Ahhh, I can't believe I missed Jack's scar in the previous videos! I mean, I noticed it, but I haven't paid any attention, I thought it was just a part of his redesign, I didn't think it was a literal scar you pulled a similar move here to what was in homestuck itself, with Jack's arm being covered in blood for the whole act for no apparent reason, only for us to see this reason in the very end and realise how dramatic it is which made me realise - there's no blood on his hand in your videos! makes me wonder what you're preparing for the cascade animation -Also really interesting how you basically swapped power-levels of Rose and Vriska. In the canon it was pretty much the opposite - Rose got disposed of fairly quickly, and Vriska was implied to be Jack's equal But your version kinda makes more sense - Rose is endowed with Horrorterror's power (which is a big deal), so she should be able to give Jack a run for his money, and Vriska is just on the normal god tier level something tells me you're not a great Vriska fan, I can relate in conclusion: dude, you're an absolute legend, thank you for all you're doing for the fandom
If I remember from the walkabout game, there were moments of black ooze stains around. That and I imagine the horrorterrors could have influenced the scene to make Skaia dark. Doppelganger rose I IMAGINE is a version of seer powers combined with horror terrors. Instead of seeing the path ahead, perhaps the doppelganger was trying to mess with Jack's head both figuratively and literally. As for the dispairty in power levels of Rose and Vriska... Well, feels like Vriska should have had a closer fight, I admit, but I like the idea of Rose's rage fueling her power and horrorterror's connection more.
Im crying… you literally are brining me back to HOMESTUCK. I used to translate HS in my language to share with my people during 2013~2016… My passion for this comic is lighting up again
This shit is so badass, god damn you've improved since the first time I saw your stuff. I guess the only criticism I have, is that the models faces sometimes look a little like they aren't really emoting much at all; and the movement sometimes seems a little too 'smooth'. Other than that, holy shit yes

You did all this amazing work in only a month and a half?! You and your skills are amazing.
Phenomenal job, can't wait to see what else you have planned. Hell, even things like S Enter and S WV Ascend would be epic as hell animated in your style
My god, I didn’t know you were still online. This is absolutely amazing!
So good i can listen to this for HOURS.
Hey, holy shit?? The Homestuck fandom is insanely lucky to have you. If this had come out during peak Homestuck years i think you could have been one of the biggest animators of the fandom just off the basis of this video alone. Holy fuck. Incredible work!!!
FUCK YES, this makes the Grimdark boost seem actually fucking useful
personally i think john shouldnt have attacked, his death being so sudden was well, the gasp moment, and plus it made sure he didn't die heroically as he never managed to do anything
I also thought this, glad to see I'm not the only one. Ofc this animation is still kickass, but it was such an important detail in the comic that John drew his weapon and DIDN'T get to attack before he was killed, because that made sure his death was neither heroic or just.
It was necessary to be sudden or else his death would be heroic becsue he had intent to kill a villain
@@lumeanoastra1252 Mhm that's what I said.
Ok but it’s in his character to do so
@jeffscrungle6179 But to be revived it must be a neutral death, he would've died heroically here
I had an epileptic seizure because of lack of flashing lights warning but in process of dying I appreciated the music
I was worried you were having an epilogue attack for a second there
Lore accurate Homestuck fights go harder than Dragonball, holy crap this is the best thing.
Happy 4/13 🎉 Incredible work as always. Also, I like how Rose actually managed to put up a fight. It makes Vriska's attempt look even more childish 😄
Because it was childish. She was too busy being a jerk to Tavros to actually think
@@lumeanoastra1252
Yeah, Vriska fucking sucks
It's a bit early to call it, but I'm pretty sure you are the animator who wins 413 this year. Bravo! 🎉
YOOOO
Every time I thought, 'okay, this cannot get cooler' I was swiftly proven wrong. I LOVE the action, and the way the character designs were translated - especially the touches on Bec Noir, like the green glow of his eyes and ring, and the interesting textures that give it almost a toybox vibe. The action felt a little floaty in places but overall is super snappy and exciting! The long shot of the planets in the Medium, goddamn. And then Rose devastating The Battlefield? THE RED MILES AND THE TEXT BOX????? THE DOC SCRATCH INTERLUDE WITH SLICK AND DAMARA AND NEVERMORE????
The way the Grimdark magics is done is super neat too, how it's not just amorphous but visibly tentacular, and its power is almost on a level with BN's, like it feels like GD Rose is legitimately giving him a run for his money, especially at the end. Absolutely phenomenal work!

why do you think this is queen's hand?
@@higztv1166 Who else is there? The Court Droll? The Draconian Dignatary?

@@Etimes99 well perhaps it's the same kind of black clone entity Rose had in this animation
@@higztv1166
i doubt it， the texture is different， and the hand looks segmented。
YEs
Fuck Yes.
HELL FUCKING YES!!!!
(HAPPY 413 my fellow HOMESTUCK ‘s)😎💚
Here a comment to push this in the algo, this is incredible
OH. MY. GOD. my jaw is on the floor im overwhelmed i need to do breathing excercises-
holy shit. its SO fast paced i think i need to watch this like 20 times over on slower speed to catch all the details that are here, holy FUCK

Happy 4/13!
Awesome!!! Jack vs. Rose was such an intense point for the story pre scratch! One of my favorite parts of it all! Great animation as always! Happy 4/13!
I've been listening to this since I was in culinary school. I'm already working and this still slaps.
I cannot fathom how your brain could have just imagined this , what i saw seemed to me litteraly unthinkable, yet you did it, you did the unthinkable.
This animation is gorgeous. So many nice touches throughout. The shadow Rose trying to distract Jack by making him fall into darkness. The shattering effects on the landscape. The fractal nature of the Red Miles. Those are some of my favorite details.
And all the visual spectacle is fantastically choreographed and matches the music well.
The only thing I regret about this video is that I can't use it to lure new readers in. It's too good and will set a slightly different expectations.
bro thanks so much for animating this scene, i always found it freaking stupid that there wasn't a major flash for this fight nor john's fight with jack on the dream bubbles
my brother in christ this was fucking amazing
this was so cool! Your vision of how the fight went is beyond impressive! I loved you including the handmaiden and not-robojack-yet looking as Doc taunts rose!
ladies and gentlemen, the winner of 4/13
Its absolutely amazing that you were able to make a whole original battle animation with new coreography and everything and make it look THIS GOOD like holy crap this is just amazing!! the energy and flashyness here are great
and the fact it actually lasts the whole song!!!aaah!!!
So… this is a taste of what Monty Oum would’ve done if he’d been a Homestuck.
Impressive.
PRAISE MONTY OUM!!!
Happy 4/13 all, lets continuously improve as we all have.
ok
now lets continue watching random old bad movies @everyone 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Love this concept!
4:20 just noticed an arm
God I love your Jack design. He looks terrifying
Happy 4/13. Amazing animation as always. We need whole homestuck series with this style of animation.
AMAZING. PURE ADRENALINE, YOU KEEP BRINGING TO LIFE AMAZING MOMENTS. happy 413 and congrats on the amazing animation
Best homesick channel. You're single-handedly keeping this shit alive, chum!

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE LET'S GOOOOO HAPPY 4/13
HAPPY 13/4 THIS IS SO COOL
criminally fucking underrated dude
Jesus fuck what how God dammit this is amazing

There are so many fine details and cool scenes, awesome inclusions that show a ton of care and thought. This is spectacular and an amazing celebration of Homestuck! Rose rocks!!!! THIS WAS SO COOL
Whats always bothered me about that particular scene is we got cheated out of the amazing fight scene that "At The Price Of Oblivion" promised us.
First my phone wasn't good enough to handle this, and now my eyes arent good enough to handle this
bro this is sick af, reminds me of a video game battle
This kinda reminds me of when i used to watch people make homestuck characters on Soul Caliber LOL. Havent seen 3d animation of HS since that, this is fucking amazing,
How are you consistently so good?
over the top fights like these are my favorite
A true labor of love! Thank you for sharing your beautiful art with us.
This is cool asfff
Honestly awesome to see everyone drop 4/13 content this year, myself included. Love it!!
This and your other animations go unreasonably hard and I love it.
Absolutely amazing, never stop working with your passion.
But I do agree with some of the others, the camera was a bit busy on this one. A little too much movement made it a bit hard to watch
My favourite day of the year, every year
Ah hell yeah

I've watched this 30 times, it's so good >.
Your animations are so energetic! It’s so awesome to see the comic in this style, thank you for making it all possible :)

Good work. Holy shit.
It may be extremely non-canon, but I love it.
My mind: Homestuck
My heart: Ronin alpha the first drifter
really Really REALLY awesome animation!!!
This is amazing!!
Another incredible animation as always! Happy 4/13
GOAT.
If Jack didn't have the green sun's power up, Rose would've served him
Omg, Rose wtf did you do?!
the red miles reminds me of the horned serpent from the season 2 finale of the monument mythos, in a good way
and IT IS G O O D
LET'S GOOOOOOOO!
HELLO ??? THIS IS INSANE TO ME
UNDERRATED
So cool
Happy 4/13
Happy 4/13🎉🎉
This shit is so badass, god damn you've improved since the first time I saw your stuff. I guess the only criticism I have, is that the models faces sometimes look a little like they aren't really emoting much at all; and the movement sometimes seems a little too 'smooth'. Other than that, holy shit yes
Merry 4/13😊
Now, THAT is a Dragon Ball Z fight right there!
