I love how this adds so much depth to her character, as her lashing out at Tailwind wasn't because she wanted to harm him but rather it seems she was blinded in the moment with grief and rage over her now lost close friend. It seems she doesn't blame Tailwind for how he reacted but rather blames herself for it all because she convinced Icepeak to tell him the truth. I do hope this leaves room for her and Tailwind to genuinely talk things out, seeing as they both are grieving for someone they both held very close to them. Also the animation is absolutely stellar, pure eye candy!! :0
I SWEAR TO GOD, I''M TREMBLING I JUST NOTICED HOW rapidstep and icepeak's paws dirty at 0:26 and to think that it's probably because they just buried Maroonstrike is tearing my heart apart😭DSGYUFGSY
OMGGG RAAAHHHHH THIS IS SO JUICY LORE OMGGGGGGG Did Rapidstep like Icepeak??! Whether platonic or romantic it's so obvious about how much she cared for her- the "ugly" cry at the end was so beautifully put together I WANNA CRY
@@Luyeshingah, I love this. Even though Rapidstep love her she never was upset that Icepeak was with someone but accepted it. That is so nice to see instead of it leading to some resentment or jealousy.
DID YOU JUST STAB ME????? wtf 😭😭 the emotion and pain. Her recalling the events and begging for icepeaks forgiveness at the end excuse me while I go cry with her!
Omg I actually nearly teared up- that scene at the ending where she’s yelling/crying “Please don’t resent me!” Actually nearly brought me to tears, I could literally feel the pain she’s in- this is incredibly sad/heartbreaking but the animations and everything is beautiful, absolutely amazing work as always! Poor Rapid needs a hug 😔 this hit me right in the feels 😭
1:20 THIS CRYING PART. IT'S SO POWERFUL. This is why you're one of my absolute favorite animators out here, the way you portray expressions is leaving me speechless everytime‼️💖
OHHH MY GOD THE EMOTIONS,, NOOO RAPIDSTEP SHE DOESNT HATE YOU I SWEARRRRRRRR OMGG NOO ITS SO SAD EVERYTHINGS GOING WRONGG NOOO YOUR ART IS ALWAYS SO GOOD!! I COULDNT MAKE IT TO THE PREMIERE BUT THIS WAS AMAZING AS ALWAYS
Your animations just keep improving at such a crazy speed, I'm absolutely impressed each time🙏🙏🙏✨✨ The smoothness, emotions everything is just so *peak* ALSO YOU BETTER GIVE MY GIRL RAPIDSTEP A HAPPY ENDING IF YOU DON'T I SWEAR-
Number one, smelled this coming and I am WEAK naw. Rapidstep just rapid stepped their butt into one of my fave characters. I'm a little weanie for a tragedy, even more so for being supportive despite your own feelings. Also on another note can I say the way you animate crying is so good? I recently was working on something personally and trying to get that look of pure desperation not just crying is so difficult and you really nail it every time you do it and its so expressive. Like all of 1:19 and forward, she's not just crying she's SOBBING, you can feel the emotion in it and it wracks her whole body and that's so impressive to animate. Anyway, awesome video, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
1:20 My god, this part is so good!! The smooth movements she has, how everything flows so perfectly, and her expression at the end! It's fantastic, it flows with her sadness and grief, love your work!! 👏👏 I hope you can continue doing such cool content ❤️✨
I love how everyone is like: DAMN THIS STORY IS AMAZING (which it is) but CAN WE PLEASE TALK ABOUT THE LIPSYNCS?!?!?! HOLY MOTHER OF COWS I CAN FEEL HER VOICE IN MY SOUL😭👍🏻
LOOCAAAAAA it's SOOOOOOOOO COOL as always. I AM DELIGHTED WITH YOUR STORY, STYLE, HOW SMOOTH AND BEAUTIFUL EACH SHOT LOOKS! The way you draw emotions, WOAHHHH
I LOVE THIS SO SO MUCH OMGGG the storytelling And the way this story has gripped me is so amazing!! I'm so invested to see more of these characters and to see such a well written and acted dialogue scene with NO dialogue is so so cooooool!! Please never stop making such amazing stories and animations!! It is absolutely inspirational the way you have crafted a story here! I feel so bad for this poor girl and to see her plead with her old friend to not resent her? Omg it hurts so much, I love love love it!!
I just love how much emotion you put into the characters, and let’s talk abt how amazing your art style is! I adore your channel and animations so much! ♥️
DUUUDE the amount of emotion in this is insane!?!? the first half with the music drew me in so well, just to hit a brick wall of so much character in the next moment!? beautiful work as always!!!
Got startled by the cricket/owl ambiance because I used the exact same track in one of my own unfinished amvs a couple of years ago! Surprised I even recognized it Anyways, absolutely incredible storytelling and animation as ever. I’m always inspired by the way you capture emotion. Keep it up!! :]
dude the ACTING is phenomenal! I've always thought you were amazing with expressions. I love the end cut-scene. The lip sync is great, the physical acting is great, it's all great!
WHAT THE HECK LUCA I JUST CAME IN TO CHECK HOWS THE CHANNEL DOING ANDDD THISSS??? holy shish this amv alone just presented a character to me in all their glory, ig it also works bcuz i know the rest of the story shown in here but it adds so much new context?? also the grass moving when they're saying "riptidesmith said he was ready" is a heavy reference to how he wanted tailwind to do -that- so he prepared this situation himself literally by telling Rapidstep that? JEEE all these animations make me wonder what else is there to the story that we don't know yet JZKZJZKZK
It's a crime to do such slay things! I really like that w each new animation ya reveal their stories! It is really exciting to watch the denouement and put them back together piece by piece Oooh I'm screeching! I'm really amazed every time I see content w them cuz the way ya artfully tell their story in animations makes my heart beat faster QwQ I GOT INTO IT!
HEEEEYYY OMG MORE INSPIRATION FOR ME!! That ending is just so sad, stop making me cry - STOP!!! I love the way you use text like that at the end i wanna try that omg :o
This makes me love Rapidstep and crave more content of her. Like its clear she helped Icepeak after what happened, but i want so badly to see it. The EMOTION in your content is awesome. The depth to your ocs. Ive rewatched this so many times. I also wonder... would Icepeak be mad?
You are so ridiculously good at making these animations. Like, the animation style and quality itself is amazing-the colors, the timing, the lip sync, the fluid movements, etc etc But what I’m mostly talking about is the… I guess composition? The sequence? The order of events in your videos is so fluid, communicative, and symbolic in a way that is frankly unparalleled by any other individual animator I’ve seen. The way you find such a perfect middle ground between stylization and symbolism with coherent and effective storytelling is amazing-like how Icepeak’s dirty paw communicates that she just buried Maroonstrike, then it transitions to Rapidstep’s bloody paw. It’s such an abrupt transition but the timing is so smooth that it’s gripping rather than jarring, and it shows the emotional turmoil and conflict she’s going through perfectly. Similar to how her attack on Tailwind suddenly transitions to the water splash on Icepeak’s face back when they were having fun. You do an excellent job at conveying how Rapidstep’s thoughts and feelings are fragmented without losing any coherence to the video, or confusing the timeline. And the crazy part is that this isn’t a fluke or a one-hit-wonder. Nah, your animations are just consistently that impressive and thoughtful. Honestly the only thing I can compare it to is how Arcane handles it’s in-show music videos, with how much gets communicated and how they strike a balance between stunning art, compelling symbolism, and effective storytelling. 10/10 as usual ❤
Oh my goddd, this is so incredible!!! Every shot is so gorgeous and all of these characters are so well written!! This whole video is stunning!! Rapidstep quickly just became one of my favorites of your characters, I love her
HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT!!! I love the story there was here, how you wordlessly conveyed a clear story of what happened. I'm so glad Icepeak had someone who knew what happened with Maroonstrike to help her through it instead of just dealing with it on her own, especially a good friend like Rapidstep! I feel so bad for her onesided feelings, but her dedication to Icepeak is like Thrushpelt and Grey Wing, they just want those they love to be happy. I'd like to think that Icepeak doesn't resent Rapidstep. She looked at peace when she died, like it was something she was waiting for, and now Rapidstep can fill Tailwind in on what really happened (and maybe this time it won't end in death but Tailwind might follow in his father's footsteps)
OMFGGGH THIS GOESSS SSOOO HARDD LUCAAAa!!!!! im like so. god you just LEVEL *UP* each animation with the timing and different small subtletiee... and that END LIPSYNCCC agh 🩷💖
I KNEW IT And I like how, in the moment, I’m 100% sure she wasn’t mad at Tailwind, but at herself She wanted to prepare him to reality of the things, but failed And… “RIPTIDESMISH SAID HE WAS READY “ I mean, of course he knows, but why Rapidstep know that he knows????
RARARARARAAR I have no words so I must scream. I have watched this multiple times now. I love this all. The showing of Rapistep's affection and how she choses the happiness of others even if it means her own heart aches. Being there for Icepeak. Trying to prepare Tailwind but listened to Riptidesmith at the wrong time. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA In the few frames focused on her face and behind her.... do I spy...
The emotions in here are just breathtaking, I can feel all of her emotions. All of your ocs are detailed in their own ways, no one is 2D and everyone has a purpose! Great job as always!
OMG NOOOOO THE ONE SIDED LOVE IS KILLING MEEEE 😭 rapidstep knowing abt everything that happened surprised me so much, and the EMOTION IN THE LAST SCENE WAS SO HEARTBREAKING AAHHHHHHH THIS IS FANTASTIC AMAZING AWESOME I LOVE ITTT
OMG THIS video is sad, but kinda cute! You learn more about Rapidstep and why she did some stuff she did! I enjoyed the expressions and emotions, and the lore sm❤❤❤
Thank you!! And yeah, I’ve thought about it but I really love the idea that anyone can imagine her voice in their own way like when reading books- But maybe I’ll grab some voice actors in the future!
NOOOOOO WE NEED THE POTENTIALLY QUEER RELATIONSHIP WAAAWAWAWA I love the dirty paws from Icepeak turning to the bloody paw from Rapidstep showing how they both ended up hurting someone it's okay Rapidstep don't cry please 😭
Oh.. looks like Rapidstep had a crush on her but accepted the fact Icepeak choose Maroonstrike as mate because the most important is for Icepeak to be happy, even as this love slowly makes her suffer and cost her life in the end. I think it's pretty tho that Rapidstep decide to bury Icepeak by Maroonstrike side as she knows she would want to stay with him forever, and she's the only one that can make it happen because only she knows where they both burried him. In the same time is hurtful and silly for her to think Icepeak would resent her for convincing Icepeak to tell the truth, when in fact Rapidstep is the one who cleary resent herself, for "letting" this happen or maybe for hurting Icepeaks son or maybe for everything, like she could prevent it (she couldn't). I think you should do the "Do you blame yourself?" and it would sit perfectly. Also congrats, your animation style is amazing and your way of telling the story is so good that I wish it was a whole serie in netflix.
Thrushpelt 🤝 RapidStep
Unrequited love but remaining their best friend all the same.
THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING. I love them both so much
I love how this adds so much depth to her character, as her lashing out at Tailwind wasn't because she wanted to harm him but rather it seems she was blinded in the moment with grief and rage over her now lost close friend. It seems she doesn't blame Tailwind for how he reacted but rather blames herself for it all because she convinced Icepeak to tell him the truth. I do hope this leaves room for her and Tailwind to genuinely talk things out, seeing as they both are grieving for someone they both held very close to them. Also the animation is absolutely stellar, pure eye candy!! :0
Thank you so much!!
Beautiful analysis!! :D
I SWEAR TO GOD, I''M TREMBLING I JUST NOTICED HOW rapidstep and icepeak's paws dirty at 0:26 and to think that it's probably because they just buried Maroonstrike is tearing my heart apart😭DSGYUFGSY
OOOO YOU CAUGHT THAT >:D Yep that was after burying him :"D
@Luyeshin had to rewatch it but i noticed that as well, love How subtle and powerful those little pieces are
Ikr! That is such an awesome detail! I noticed it the first time watching it and now every time I watch this I can’t stop looking at that detail!
HER SOBBING OUT “please don’t resent me” AT THE END WAS SOO GOOD I COULD FEEL HER SADNESS ☹️☹️ OUGHH RAPIDSTEP PLEASE LIVE A LONG AND HAPPY LIFE…
THANK YOU!! :D
OMGGG RAAAHHHHH THIS IS SO JUICY LORE OMGGGGGGG
Did Rapidstep like Icepeak??! Whether platonic or romantic it's so obvious about how much she cared for her- the "ugly" cry at the end was so beautifully put together I WANNA CRY
HEHE THANK YOU!! And yea! She had one-sided feelings for Icepeak but settled with just seeing her happy :D
OH MY GOODNESS THE POOR CHILD PLEASE DONT KILL OFF RAPIDSTEP I WANT HER TO GROW OLD AND HAPPY WITH HER LIFE 😭🙏
@@GOTHIBORZOI and when she dies from age I hope she finds icepeak's soul on starclan and they live happily 😭
@@Luyeshingah, I love this. Even though Rapidstep love her she never was upset that Icepeak was with someone but accepted it. That is so nice to see instead of it leading to some resentment or jealousy.
Thought she was gonna be the typical jealous girl but nooo, way much better!!! She attacks unfairly Tailwind AND SHE KNEW IT AND REGRETED IT AAAAHHH
DID YOU JUST STAB ME????? wtf 😭😭 the emotion and pain. Her recalling the events and begging for icepeaks forgiveness at the end excuse me while I go cry with her!
AAA Thank you so much!! :D
Omg I actually nearly teared up- that scene at the ending where she’s yelling/crying “Please don’t resent me!” Actually nearly brought me to tears, I could literally feel the pain she’s in- this is incredibly sad/heartbreaking but the animations and everything is beautiful, absolutely amazing work as always!
Poor Rapid needs a hug 😔 this hit me right in the feels 😭
Oughh thank you so much!! It always means the world to me to hear that my work can touch peoples emotions like this- Thank you!
@ Ofc ofc!! :D I absolutely love your work, your animations and stories always amaze me and keep me on the edge of my seat! (literally, lol)

HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT!!! I love the story there was here, how you wordlessly conveyed a clear story of what happened.

I KNEW IT
And I like how, in the moment, I’m 100% sure she wasn’t mad at Tailwind, but at herself
She wanted to prepare him to reality of the things, but failed
And… “RIPTIDESMISH SAID HE WAS READY “ I mean, of course he knows, but why Rapidstep know that he knows????
HEehhee thank you so much!! :D

Trying to prepare Tailwind but listened to Riptidesmith at the wrong time. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I love the dirty paws from Icepeak turning to the bloody paw from Rapidstep showing how they both ended up hurting someone it's okay Rapidstep don't cry please 😭
Ooooo great catch on those parallels there!!
Thank you! :D
i''ve rewatched this an unhealthy amount of times
Oh.. looks like Rapidstep had a crush on her but accepted the fact Icepeak choose Maroonstrike as mate because the most important is for Icepeak to be happy, even as this love slowly makes her suffer and cost her life in the end. I think it's pretty tho that Rapidstep decide to bury Icepeak by Maroonstrike side as she knows she would want to stay with him forever, and she's the only one that can make it happen because only she knows where they both burried him.

I think you should do the "Do you blame yourself?" and it would sit perfectly.
Also congrats, your animation style is amazing and your way of telling the story is so good that I wish it was a whole serie in netflix.
OH MA GODNESSS
