I started this is October and now it's done! Finally lol Anyway, here's the story of Achilles and his bf, Patroclus, during the Trojan War. The song is Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youth
Context for anyone who needs it: A little ways into the war between the Greeks and the Trojans, Achilles got in a fight with Agamemnon (the guy in green) and refused to fight. The Greeks started losing the war without his help, so Patroclus stole his armor and rallied the troops but got killed by Hector, king of Troy. The majority of the video is Achilles dealing with the loss and eventually choosing to keep fighting. At the end, in new armor gifted to him by the god Hephaestus, he kills Hector, avenging his bf. But then he takes it a step too far, tying Hector's body to the back of his chariot and driving it around Troy for nine days, losing the favor of the gods and desecrating Hector's body. He then is shot in his weak spot, the back of the heel, by Hector's brother, Paris.

The fact that there may have actually been an Achilles is incredible
Really? I didn't know that. Interesting!
There's something so romanticly poetic about achilles dieing with a smile. A man who has done as much bad as he has good, has hundreds of lives on his hands alone but has experienced so much pain first hand. Especially in that time after patroclus died, the blind, unfeeling wrath of a man in grief. A man realising he doesn't have to fight anymore, doesn't have to kill anymore, that can finally see his love once again. I can't express how much I love it when people draw him with a look of bliss as his last emotion rather than panic. Amazing animatic btw
Thank you, that was exactly my thought process. Now he can be with his love again and doesn't have to worry about the suffering that comes with living anymore
THE SMILE IN THE END-
That killed me too.. he'll be with him now. STOP I'LL CRY
lol thank you, it is a very heartbreaking ending but now they'll never be apart again!
I like that Achilles has not just long hair, but damn long hair
great work ^_^
lol thanks! I'm glad you liked it. I think he spends a little while presenting as female, actually avoiding the war, until Odysseus finds him, so I figured why not give him SUPER long hair! lol
@@littlecereal293 Just substitute "Rapunzel" for "Achilles" in the lyrics? Does that work? :)
@@randyastle3301 lol idk
Awesome even after 2 years of age, like cleaning a dusty book and reading the still fresh words put of a fine leather cover.
Thank you so much!!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it
THIS IS GREAT, The ending reminded me of who achilles was. It was cool that you added that. Nice work
Thank you!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME THIS WAS SO AMAZING. The amount of effort it must’ve taken, the pure raw passion and talent and your imagination. My favourite part was when the ‘devil’ and Patroclus’ spirits were arguing and Achilles watches, torn. You did so well! And that Hector fight too, smooth animation! Thank you!
Thank you so much!! It did take a long time lol I worked on it for abt 2 months, sat on it for 5, and then speed ran the rest in a week lol And the bit where they're arguing on the roof is my favorite too! I love the emotions and the music there, especially the lyrics
4:36 that scene gave me goosebumps this is so good 💔
Edit: the end gave me goosebumps too... good Job I loved it this is exactly what I imagine when I listen to the song 💕
Thank you!! 4:36 was definitely my favorite part to do lol the music is so powerful there
Freya: the Black Shadow Figure appears to be Apollo mocking him...
Yeet it's me Zagreus! Great work!
Hello! Thank youuuu
So great! But so sad!!

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH OMG
You drew a lot of things the way I imagined them while listening to the song and I loved the black shadow person and alsoit made me tear up when around the end everyone hugged achilles and just AHHH

AAAAA I'm so glad you liked it!! I'm really proud of how it turned out, the black shadow person was one of one of my favorite parts to do lol
Freya: the Black Shadow Figure appears to be Apollo mocking him, BTW...
