Watch episode 12 again and then watch the opening credits. There's so many parts that are shot for shot from the opening credits scene. All the scenes where Vox Machina is dying and reaches out for the gold threads were the dragon fight with Umbrasyl. Super cool touch.
And Larkin reveals herself... I knew this would be the cliffhanger of this season. If you notice, Raishan was only present in the very first episode and hasn't been seen since, unlike the others who pop up now and then. She was the green eyed pissed girl that went through the tree with Vox Machina to Whitestone. This was always her plan. Three cheers for Larkin! The BEST dragon.
I was kind of hoping there would be more random people that would show up with green eyes throughout the show, but I never saw any. Kind of a missed opportunity, but oh well.
As someone who watched campaign one as it aired I think she took the place of at least four maybe five NPC’s. Not a hundred percent sure but the member of that council in Vasselheim that tipped them off about the Slayers Take. Also in the campaign it wasn’t keeper Yennen it was a member of the council that showed up briefly in season one but was never name dropped and I’m pretty damn sure they cut out of the show simple not to overload people with too many characters.
@@EslocoSoldado I mean we definitely knew Assun's name. He was also relatively important to specifically Vex as he actually helped "train" her multiclass/extra ranger features in the campaign. He was instrumental to the downfall of the briarwood initially (though not at whitestone obviously). Originally Raishan-Assun doesn't even get to whitestone until the party briefly "checks in" on Emon to try to pick up survivors (at this point they still had many NPCs from Emon unaccounted for from the council). They deal with the Clasp, find out assuns there, and "recover him" (only for him to later be revealed as Raishan). To say he was unimportant isn't really accurate, but there was certainly "more important" characters out there, yeah. He def appears in at least 5 - 8 episodes throughout the whole campaign though. He was def cut completely on purpose though... mostly becuz of the first two episodes making it really hard to justify his role on the council being filled. I appreciated that they took the chance to use Yennen though as originally Yennen is important for like 2 - 3 episodes of the briarwood arc and forgotten about more or less after that. In the show, Yennen was given more importance and presence... so it made sense to use this as the Raishan fake since viewers would at least "like" her from the first season already. (or have the chance to like her) Does anyone know where Larkin is though?
15:09 so…remember that kid with the SUPER green eyes Grog spoke to back in the first episode when they escaped Emon to Whitestone? Yeah. Raishan has been in Whitestone a WHILE
@@vincentyong3272 shapeshifter, as per the campaign. She was a different npc when she revealed herself in the streams who was still in Emon, iirc. Not sure how they’re gonna explain it with Yennen in the show
What happened with the Scanlan killshot was that in that moment, he fulfilled a trigger condition (facing his greatest fear to save a companion) to shift Mythcarver from its Dormant to Awakened state. Vax did the same when he Awakened his Vestige to get the wings (accepting and embracing his fate).
If you remember that spooky green eyed child that came through the portal with other refugees, that was Raishan. Later in that episode the Chroma Conclave met and Raishan was missing
The armour, exalted! Vex was just as salty about the wings in the stream. Mythcarver's exalted form allows the bearer to pull off a move like that, too. Raishan was the little girl with green eyes when they escaped the attack on the keep. Originally, she masqueraded as the spymaster of the Tal'Dorei council.
I love how they show Vax taking a level in Paladin- it really builds on how Liam described it! He is pretty much the Angel of Death. The whole story surrounding the Matron has been one of the highlights of the season imo, as was the Killbox. And the reveal at the end was chef's kiss worthy- really wasn't sure when and how they were going to do that (though thought it would be at some point seeing as she came through as that angry little gil with them through the tree) as it is another character in the campaign she masquerades as Another thing though, wasn't it Grog that got the kill in the campaign? Please correct me if I'm wrong! We also need the soundtrack to come out asap because the music for this season has been beyond incredible. Thanks so much for reacting to this series chaps, it's been great watching
You are correct, Grog got HDYWTDT in game. But he got so many final blows that it’s more than understandable that they’re spreading them out a little 😅
@@TheSaphireKatana They had to set up for the uninitiated, even though I don’t remember anything about it in the campaign until Asoom, the kids scowl and bright green eyes were a big giveaway tho.
@wiredjerk I noticed the scowl but never noticed anything about the eyes, cause I was going off the knowledge from the campaign where raishan took the identity of somebody else who was still in emon
@@markpayne8004 Grog had 4 in a row in this portion of the campaign. Scanlan had 8 across the entire campaign. 2 were pre-Briarwood and 2 were in the in the two fights at Pyrah, which went to Keyleth in the show (kinda?) Grog also had the HDYWTDT on Saundor too, which is wild to think about - he had all named villains of S2 of TLOVM.
Calling Rashan a good dragon is quite the stretch. You are the first reaction team I've seen that mentioned the possibility that the eggs are possibly the creation of Dragonborn.
Thordak's master plan was never revealed in game. It was revealed in either "Talks Machina" or "Campaign One" recap. Wasn't revealed during the playing of it. It was behind the scenes stuff, because we only see/experience what the players are seeing/experiencing. ;)
Someone slipped during the Q&A of these episodes. I think it was Travis. It sounded like they had been working on season 3 already for awhile. They probably already have a group dedicated to getting The Mighty Nein prepped. So I think it will be back either quicker or in the same time frame as season 2.
In a recent interview, Laura mentioned that they don't stop working once a season is completed. They immediately begin working on the next. So, once the scripts and voiceover for S2 was done and it was going through the animation process, they started working on scripts of S3 and the voiceover for that, so there's a bit of overlap. Not sure if there's going to be a separate team for the MN series or if they'll start production on it once S3 is done.
I don’t think the egg like thingy at the end of the episode was Dragonborn. They already existed. One of the original characters in VM was a Dragonborn sorcerer.
God damnit I was tearing up so bad when I thought Scanlan was dead........they got me so good with that. Also is Mythcarver like based of magic casting ability or is it made for the bard class?? Cause that thing is hella powerful when Scanlan gets a hold of it
If a Bard swings it, Mythcarver powers up with the user's voice. Not only that, it empowers the Cutting Words spell, to the point where Scanlan's insults dealt physical damage to enemies on top of distracting them! That, coupled with the Visions the show gave it make it a HELL of a weapon for any Bard lucky enough to find it!
@@BlueSun_It also dealt Force damage and allowed for a multi-hit combo if wheeled by a Bard using Cutting Word, if I remember correctly. I’m guessing because of both abilities it did so much damage to the dragon, can’t resist against Force.
@@wiredjerk The extra damage was just a 1d6. The main thing is that it allowed to give disadvantage on saving throws to enemies after Cutting Words. Still, if its Exalted it would be a +3 longsword + the force so around 44 average damage if all 4 strikes hit. It's not nothing Also being Force damage would make no difference, the Dragons are not resistant to physical damage
This whole episode exhausting in the absolute best way possible! Whenever the heroes of any fantasy story fight a dragon it should ALWAYS be grueling and epic, true final boss shit, and the final fight left me floored. And the final moment of Scanlan finally using his balls for something other than sex and getting the courage to attack Umbrasyl had me actually shouting and cheering for him. It sucks that we have to wait another whole year to see what might be the conclusion of this saga, but it will be worth the wait. Also my plan for taking out Umbrasyl in the cave would’ve been to first have someone get rid of the dragons ability to fly by going after the wings, not by targeting the base of his wings but by making a single deep slash into the webbing of their wings, just like what Kratos did to the Baldur’s dragon in God Of War. Then lure the dragon into a smaller part of the cave and have the heavy hitters like Grog and Keyleth attack the ceiling of the cave causing a cave in to both damage and even incapacitate the dragon. After that Umbrasyl will be angry enough that he will keep trying to use his acid spit over and over while they use the newly dropped boulders as cover, then when he is between attacks do what Scalan did and go for the eyes. Then just keep chipping away at the weak points until it’s dead.
That would be a tremendous Robot Chicken pitch - Thordak wants all those riches in order to pay off his colossal gambling debts at the casino in Kymal xD
This happens when the production company is also the team of voice-over actors and directors who created the source material. It probably cuts down production time because they can just jump in the booth at a moments notice
@@devildham And being professionals it takes them MUCH less time to record than other actors. Sam said Troy Baker (who played Vex/Vax's jerk dad) recorded all of his lines in 1 take, 1 hour with no notes, redos - that is HUGE in terms of time and cost savings.
i mean, considering the source material is already done, and the original creators of the source material are creating the adaptation AND voicing the main characters, it does not shock me that the animation is taking the most time, or that it's doing seasons back to back.
This season vaulted this show past Batman TAS and settled it right behind Xmen (90s) on my personal Mount Rushmore of animated shows. Just incredible television.
Here's an idea for a monster. Mock-cyclops. It's like an Orca whale where it looks like it has a big giant eye to aim at, but it's purely superficial and its actual eyes are small and beady, and hidden with natural camouflage.
It's overrrrrr *cries * 12 episodes isn't enough. SEASON THREE NOW PLEASE! How about now? ...Now? I cannot wait a whole year for more, this show has been keeping me sane. They hadn't mentioned the Emergence until these last two episodes. At this point even folks who've seen the campaign have only the outline of what might happen, we're off the path here folks. They're doing a fantastic job adapting such a behemoth of a story to work in this medium, and don't get me wrong, it's brilliant! But this is different enough that we're kind of in uncharted territory. Exciting! Wasn't sure if you actually wanted suggestions for Fix It, or if that was sarcasm because you're drowning in them, but in case you do, how about Jurassic Park 3? I love the whole ridiculous franchise (yes, even the newer ones) because...look, I am a simple creature, and dinosaur-ish-creatures mixed with disaster movie vibes just tick a lot of "mental popcorn" boxes for me. But they are... not good movies if you want any kind of coherent plot. The third one in particular I remember thinking could be SO much cooler. Anyway, that's my pitch. Fix Jurassic Park 3. [/waffling] I wish I could make my brain gremlins do discord, that sounds like a lot of fun. You're SO right about ttrpgs, there's nothing tabletop players want more than to TEACH MORE PLAYERS. I swear. (Also, wrangling players is the true BBEG of every DnD game. You're not alone.) SO excited to hear about the one-shots! "Bonus Action" is a great name. Can't wait! GO FOR THE EYES BOO!
So Season 3 will probably take longer. When they started the fundraiser for this, they got enough funding for 2 seasons. So season 2 had a lot of work done by the time season 1 came out.
This is totally not how it happened in the campaign but it's very interesting how they are changing so much and moving things around but they also unfortunately left out one of the best guest PCs. Can't wait to see your RPG campaign.
13:57 "That booty should go back to Westruun..." If you listen, you can hear Pike say exactly that. She wants to use some of the loot to help survivors of the city and rebuild.
the greatest rock song? Mama, just killed a dragon Put my sword against his eye Stabbed deeply, now he's dead The Matron gives you wings and a case of Red Bull.
Thordak didn't mention anything about any emergence earlier in the season. That's a top secret plan that during the campaign the audience didn't find out about until much later so I'm surprised that they gave us a sneak peek in this season at all.
CR Season 2 Episode 1 when they are ushering all of the refugees through the portal. Remember how the Green Dragon was missing through most of that episode... look for the little girl with vibrant green eyes... *hint hint*
Fix It recommendation: The PKD movies: Imposter, Screamers, Total Recall (both version need help) & Minority Report. Take on Blade Runner at your own peril!
You guys doing D&D now on the channel, there were characters from another live play show in the Slayer's Take earlier this season, Travis watches reactions, including yours I believe....I'm just saying.
I love that even with all their upgrades they still got beat to shit and barely squeezed out a win against 1 of these damn dragons. I cant wait for season 3 and onward and even M9 cause i miss those assholes.
I’d be surprised if we had mighty Nein before 2025. It takes about 2 years for a show like this from start to finish, and I heard m9 had only just started production.
“I have a broom and you get fucking wings?” Is the most Laura Bailey thing Vex has ever said in this show.
It's great that they are basically super competitive siblings in real life.
Pretty sure that’s a direct quote, from Laura to Liam too 😂
"Vex, your Laura is showing"
@@laurahart1337 I’m glad we get this a bit of a feud lol as the boots were never introduced so they don’t have those to fight over.
@@wiredjerk Right?! I did love that little fight though. B/c it was more of a 'fight' if you know what I mean.
That key HAS to be for Scanlan’s Magnificent Mansion!
i was thinking it may be as a substitute for the scroll of gate
@@beesus1412 nah, they already have transportation spells.
@@beesus1412 both are good thinking, 🤔 and here I am thinking it was just gonna be another accessory in Scanlan’s love bag.
Didn't think about the mansion! the first thing i thought about its a key to old bookcase long long way down the line..
@@theflyingwelshman5338 gate is not for transportation tho.
I just realized that the shot of Vax exaltation was part of the opening all along....this show is so good
I got so hyped at that moment. There’s so many things included that foreshadow future events and it’s AWESOME
Watch episode 12 again and then watch the opening credits. There's so many parts that are shot for shot from the opening credits scene. All the scenes where Vox Machina is dying and reaches out for the gold threads were the dragon fight with Umbrasyl.
Super cool touch.
These guys will never notice, they're always too busy shouting about Power Rangers during the intro.
@@SightUnseen555 minor spoiler
actually, it's theorised that VM getting their ass kicked in the OP is another battle, faaar down the line.
@@EsquilaxM watch the episode again, the animations were frame accurate to the intro cinematic.
For those who may have forgotten, on stream, after VM killed Umbrasyl the next episode was the cannonball contest in the Magnificent Mansion
I mean, the key has to open something, right?
And Larkin reveals herself... I knew this would be the cliffhanger of this season.

Nat 20 for enthusiasm, Nat 1 for scheduling. That's just how we roll.

Mythcarver is made for bards, the power depicted in the show is more impressive than in the game.
It's main use in game is as a debuffer to enemies
It's for bards, it's connected to stories and bards are the og storytellers, it's also a tuning fork
If a Bard swings it, Mythcarver powers up with the user's voice. Not only that, it empowers the Cutting Words spell, to the point where Scanlan's insults dealt physical damage to enemies on top of distracting them!

13:57 "That booty should go back to Westruun..." If you listen, you can hear Pike say exactly that. She wants to use some of the loot to help survivors of the city and rebuild.
Can't wait to see the D&D games from you guy's. Sounds amazing!!!
It's your guy's turn to Roll!!!
Only Adam got the awsome fisting joke 😂😂😂
Fun fact they actually do long rest after regrouping. It is the ttrpg version of why Umbrasyl heals.
Fuck yeah! I'm so excited to see your guys' show!
Scanlin; killing a dragon by giving it a lethal migraine. Oh Scanlin.
the greatest rock song?
Mama, just killed a dragon
Put my sword against his eye
Stabbed deeply, now he's dead
The Matron gives you wings and a case of Red Bull.
I'm definitely going to watch your campaign.
Oh, you're just dropping the title with a "by the way"?
Bonus action! I'm ready, I'm pumped!
So freaking hyped for the D&D campaign!!!! Can't wait to see what you guys do!
Thordak didn't mention anything about any emergence earlier in the season. That's a top secret plan that during the campaign the audience didn't find out about until much later so I'm surprised that they gave us a sneak peek in this season at all.
Yooooo! A DnD show from you folks? I'll have to watch that!
Scanlan gets the kill with the sword and the power chord!!!
I hope the strike does not delay the release of Season 3.
That is one magnificent-looking key ;-)
i also thought he ment "raven queen needed to take her ass back to rebuild"
Jay and Adam should do a reaction too the new Flash trailer 💯🔥👌
the Raven queen does in fact give you wings
Thanks for the ride!
CR Season 2 Episode 1 when they are ushering all of the refugees through the portal. Remember how the Green Dragon was missing through most of that episode... look for the little girl with vibrant green eyes... *hint hint*
In case you were wondering if shit rocks...
One hell of a fight
Technically the armor gives Vax wings. I guess he just didn't know it could do that yet. It's only for a few rounds per day, however.
For the podcast keep it in them with the bit. Morphine Tim. The first Power Rangers Movie.
Fix It recommendation: The PKD movies: Imposter, Screamers, Total Recall (both version need help) & Minority Report. Take on Blade Runner at your own peril!
Adam: I love you dearly; but, in fairness, it's "Oh-ee-ay...Tale Spin! Oh-ee-oh...Tale Spin!" ;)
This episode is really funny to me because in past DND sessions eons ago, our saying was always "Go for the butt!" 😂😂😂😂😂
You guys doing D&D now on the channel, there were characters from another live play show in the Slayer's Take earlier this season, Travis watches reactions, including yours I believe....I'm just saying.
4 Vestiges and 1 Dragon down, really this whole arc is just getting started lol
This season has just been wild! Love it 🤟
Thordak mentioned an 'Emergence' to Umbrasyl, but we don't know what he means by that and VM hasn't heard about it at all.
I love that even with all their upgrades they still got beat to shit and barely squeezed out a win against 1 of these damn dragons. I cant wait for season 3 and onward and even M9 cause i miss those assholes.
Legend of Vox Machina S3 coming this fall! 🔥 🐲
I think the Key is Scanland's Mansion
Glenn Miller's estate is about to slap a copyright block.
Up the rear was hilarious
"Go for the eyes, Boo!"
i rate this season 1 out of 1 unexpected betrayals
14:22 Damn it, Adam! 😆
I’d be surprised if we had mighty Nein before 2025. It takes about 2 years for a show like this from start to finish, and I heard m9 had only just started production.
Vax finally attuned that magic item :)
Yeah, Mithcarver was forged for a Bard.
Wouldn't you know...
I don't think Mighty Nein will be seen next year, 2 years at best I think.
