Alternate title: Jackson frantically tries to calm Vivian down for 25 minutes straight
after almost 6 months exactly of production, my first year of college under my belt, a new laptop, and a WHOLE new story later, this beast is finally done! If you were a fan of the original version of TSH, don’t worry! The original episodes will still be up and won’t be altered/removed in any way.
The reboot is an entirely new plot, and now revolves around Jackson as the protagonist instead of Lunis. My suggestion? Throw any former knowledge about the OG plot out the window, because this series is much different from the first draft. The only thing that’s similar are some characters, but even then, some have been cut, renamed, replaced, or altered. Basically what I’m trying to say is that the TSH reboot is it’s own thing, and should be treated as such!
I cannot wait to take y'all down this journey of The Stolen Hope reboot! I really hope it shows my improvements in art, story telling, character writing, and overall production! As I touched on before, I am a college student now, and I don’t really have a ton of free time anymore, so production is going to be slower than the first series.
That being said, this episode would NOT be possible if it weren’t for my fantastic Patreon supporters! They’ve been here for Ep. 1’s WHOLE production and have been backing me financially for almost a year! If you’re interested in supporting my project financially (which means faster episode releases), and you want to see exclusive episode two content that won’t be shown to the public, please consider pledging to my Patreon! Some episode two content is already up, and more will be posted very soon! Link below!
OR.. if you aren’t financially able to support me but still want to see updates/content from episode two, follow me on my social’s below!
Massive thank you to my OUTSTANDING cast and crew who helped me bring this project to life! They’re all listed in the credits, go give them some love!
Thank you to everyone who has supported me through production! Y’all really do mean the world to me!

Hello, this is the voice actor for Jackson! I’m so so happy to see so many people enjoying the first episode of what all of us on the crew consider a passion project. No spoilers, but you guys should be HYPE for what’s to come, it’s intense!
SOGGYYYYYY
SOGGY YOU OWE ME FOR THE EMOTIONAL DAMAGE THE WHIMPER IN JACK'S VOICE AT 7:40 CAUSED ME!
@@lolaf1er AAAAWWWW LOLAF IM SORRY CHONKER IS SO SWEET
Second that!
Ahaha Hi there soggy!! :3
I actually really like how Vivian has a better reason to side with the empire unlike the original. I feel there is much more potential for growth on both ends of the spectrum for her with this reboot now and I can't wait to see how it goes. Also I like how Lunnis isn't such a jerk this time as is trying to be friendly to everyone she meets, no matter the side they are on.
Yeah honestly, Lunis seemed like such a hypocritical, mean idiot in the first series. And already she seems to have made a complete 180. Pretty much all of these characters are way more likeable now.
JACKSON IS SUCH A GOOD BROTHER OMG 😭😭😭😭
IKR 😩👌
Agreed
Agreed
Fr!!
Agreed
7:41 Can we just appreciate the voice actor for the brown extra cat here? Like damn, they really went above and beyond.
I swear their voice reminds me so much of FunkyFrogBait
@@Synchronisedstumbling OMG YES THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
"ANYTHING BUT THE TOMATO!!!"
My favorite quote so far lmao
Agreed lol
THIS WAS AMAZING!!! Vivian and Jackson’s Dynamic is amazingly executed, Apollo is Adorable and so is Lunis. I’m so honoured to be apart of this series, even if I’m just a colourist haha(also all the crew did amazingly)
OMG, you're the colorist!!!
One thing I like about this series is that they're not swearing just for the sake of being edgy, they're swearing when they get really pissed off.
Honestly I love the perspective change with Vivian and Jackson being the current protagonist. With the story centered around the two of them we're able to see another side to Vivian that wasn't presented in the original. It not only gives a whole different story aspect but it also helps others to connect and understand Vivian, instead of just seeing her as a one-deminsional villain. Though don't get me wrong for the original Stolen Hope was really good still, but it lacked a proper well built up storyline when it came to the connection of Vivian/Jackson and their dad. Overall I really like how the remake/redempted version is turning out so far and I can't wait to see where the story goes next!
I love the massive changes in the story already. Since Iris died Lunis and Apollo already know who they are! I really want to see how this turns out!
Actually, the reboot centers around Jackson, so Iris never took them! Lunis and Apollo have lived with their parents! :D
AUGH OH MY GOD OKAY UH LET ME PROCESS THIS RQ
Okay so this episode IMMEDIATELY PULLS AND HOOKS YOU IN with an absolute KILLER of a first scene. You’re just getting introduced to Iris here and you sympathize with her the moment she starts talking, which makes it all the more heartbreaking when she dies, even more so when you see Jack and Viv having to deal with the aftermath. You sympathize with the siblings super hard and their personalities make them shine, which goes for when Lunis and Apollo are introduced too. Vivian’s character is done so well in just the first episode, you understand where she’s coming from and her trauma but you also know that she treats other people unfairly. Bottom line, this episode was phenomenal, and I am so so happy and grateful that I got to help out even just a little bit on this project. This is going to get serious recognition I know it.
Anyway, Vivian makes me feel things, stan Apollo (and also every other character), I’m going to go think about this for three months
“Killer first scene”
MMMMM-
I have no idea why people have compared this beautiful series to Warriors, or even thought it was Warriors. This series is much, much different, and nothing like Warriors! I loved the old series, and this episode is amazing! I also really like the plot better already! You have definitely improved at writing plots! I also didn’t really like Lunis in the original series, but I really like her now in the reboot, as she just seems like a better character in general! I also love Iris’ new design! Vixy will always be my fav character tho
The only reason why people think that is cause its feral cats.
Thats what im thinking
Vivan and Vixy are my faves they are. I prefer these designs they seem more realistic. Is Jackson a dilute calico if he is i die for male calicos lmao. I can also personally relate to this Vivian .
@@bananathewolf5589 Their comment targets people who view the episode, watch the whole thing, see it’s clearly not warriors, and continue to compare it to warriors. People have a right to be pissed about that, as do i. You really are the only person here who’s pressed
@@bananathewolf5589 my pride is lesbophobic stop acting like it’s god tier lesbian rep because it’s not!
@@bananathewolf5589 i’m an actual lesbian fyi. the creator is lesbophobic and the entire premise of nothing and hovers relationship is rooted in lesbophobia and misogyny. there’s an entire video on the problems with it. if you’re willing to listen i can link.
also i have watched the entire series.
@@bananathewolf5589 the creator has stated in the past that lesbians can date trans men. she’s lesbophobic and transphobic. if you have a discord i can send various amounts of evidence if you would like.
Vixxie is so charming in there, I absolutely love her already.
I’m loving Viv even more than I did in the og 😭
This one even makes me feel more sad for her since now it seems she really has a reason to betray the thorn cats. In the original it didn’t really feel as reasonable (from character pov) but now I can really understand why she would! Go viv go!
At 16:21; I have a feeling the two butterflies in the scene foreshadow Vivian and Jackson and how they will slowly grow apart from each other in the future. This is just a theory I have though; I also love your videos too, they are always so well put together and so beautiful. Keep up the amazing work!
I think so too!
Tremendous episode, very happy to be here for the premiere and to have the opportunity to voice General Dusk❤️Everyone did an excellent job
Much agreed! You did an amazing job voicing General Dusk! Everyone did an outstanding job!
I agree with you on that
You do the best voice for general dusk
@@darkclawwarriorcat517 Thank you!
@@MousePelt all in good time I just also remembered that in the first one dusk got hurt many times over and I was sad when we’ll you know what vixy did to carioline I was so mad than
First, I love Apollo's new design. He's so small and soft looking, I just want to pick him up and hug him. Jackson looks so big and fluffy, and Lunis' new design is just... chef's kiss. The stripes are beautiful on her.
I like that we're getting a lot of focus on Jackson and Vivian's bond, too! I always felt like it didn't get as much focus as it could have in the original despite how it was said they used to be close. I'm looking forward to seeing how the rest of the reboot plays out from here.
When Vivian went with Vixy I was like
"Damn no stranger danger- "
Vivian: "oKaY" [casually goes with stranger cat leaving her amazing brother behind]
BUT AMAZING WORK THE ART IS AMAZING AND I AND THE CREW ARE GOING TO DO A AMZING JOB
When you miss the premiere but you're not too late to still be considered early 🏃♂️
THE IMPROVEMENT OH LORDS??? I love how this story goes sooo much!! Lem, this is just so good! Thank you so much for rebooting TSH into this, the old story is so nostalgic, but this is a whole new level and I absolutely love where this reboot is going, this is a great episode 1, a powerful beginning and sign me up for the whole ride, I can't wait to see how this will play out!
Atsuoru! Can't believe you watch this too!
Oh my god never before have I sympathized so much with Viv. Absolutely outstanding job, Lem!
I understand why she feels that way but its confusing that she would want to trust a stranger who would promise her a " better life"
I think it’s because she’s desperate for things to get better. She’s sick of the constant bullying from the Thorn cats, so when a stranger (who happens to be second in command of an EMPIRE who’s ruled by her father and saw her when she was a baby) offers to make things better, Vivian is inclined to at least take that walk with her and see if she’s up for it
When you have school during the time of the premiere so you cry
I’m already out of school- it ended May 28th lol
@@shadilvic damn u lucky
I'm out too but I have work.😭
I’m staying up to watch I don’t care what anyone else says
I had to take my bath so I didn't get to see it
Is it just me or is there a sort of pattern between Jackson and Vivian in this episode? I know calling shots on the first episode is a little early but I wanted to theorize a bit about their behavior.
I think Jackson is an enabler type for Vivian due to his submissive nature. Not that he's doing it on purpose; I doubt he even knows he's doing it, and he absolutely has the best intentions, but he unintentionally harms her. In the episode, when they get to talking about their mom (a topic that's clearly repressed, from the way Vivian reacted), Jackson quickly shuts down the topic as soon as Vivian starts opening up about it and expressing her deeply held thoughts and emotions. I get that they couldn't have kept talking about it anyway even if they wanted to, because of training starting in 10 minutes, but the fact that apparently it happened years ago and Vivian still hasn't opened up about it indicates that Jackson has been letting Vivian keep it bottled up inside of herself for literal ages. It's impossible that the topic didn't come up before, and since it wasn't addressed as evidenced by this scene, it had to be dismissed. And Jackson didn't assert himself to force Vivian to confront it in any situation. Again, he'd clearly never hurt her on purpose, and maybe it has no bearing on where we know Vivian will end up, but that sort of thing can definitely harm someone's emotional intelligence.
We also see Jackson's submissive behavior opening him up to bullying from the relentless Thorn cats, and he has to be rescued twice in this one episode. This would also stunt Vivian's emotional growth. While Jackson is clearly already empathetic and emotional and openminded, Vivian is stuck viewing Thorn cats as "the cats who I keep having to protect my brother from" and therefore, as an extension, "the cats who are awful and all hate us and who I don't belong with." She helps her brother to her own detriment, and Jackson of course doesn't realize this is happening and that it's bad.
His submissive nature also prevents him from confronting her on when those flaws (that are exacerbated from the things I just talked about) come out and harm others. Like when she made fun of Lunis and Apollo and he ran after her. Initially he did the right thing and interrogated her on what she'd just done, but instead of talk with her about why it was bad or inquire deeper into why she felt the need to do that, he just offers to reward her behavior by eating with her alone. And she ends up rejecting this, but he still lets her go off on her own without confronting the situation or him.
Come to think of it, this all might've also given her a minor superiority complex; by having to be the one to defend her brother so often, and having that brother never make her confront her own misdeeds or emotional burden, she could have begun to give herself a little bit of an ego. That would explain why she doesn't like it when Lunis defends Jackson and starts befriending him. It SHOULD be a dream come true to Vivian, since her brother seems to finally be happy and getting a friend, but in her eyes, it's HER job and only SHE can do it, because she's perfect, and Jackson always affirms this perfection, and since he's the only one who loves or cares about her he MUST be right. A bit of this ego can also be seen when she's met with Vixy. She recognizes Vixy as the second-in-command of the Cursed Empire, which I can only assume at this point to be a rival to the Kingdom of Thorns if not their full-brown war enemies. But instead of being like "Hey! How on Earth did the literal vice president of this nation we're rivals with/at war with get here, and why are they here?" Vivian instead says "MORE IMPORTANTLY, how do you know my name?" and doesn't give the whole "second-in-command of rival empire" another thought. This extreme ego, combined with the mistreatment from Thorn cats, opens her up to manipulation, as we can see by Vixy stoking it and providing it with compliments we can only assume she never gets except from her brother. This would make her trust the wrong cats much easier.
Again I don't think that Jackson's doing it out of any malice. He genuinely thinks he just needs to be soft on his sister. But all of these traits point to him enabling Vivian by accident by not stepping up and guiding her when she needs it. Or maybe I'm just completely wrong and this is all a coincidence.
WOW!!! i really LOVE how to analyzed all of this and the character psychology!!! you definitely got right on the nose with some of the things you said and i’m so glad you picked it up!!
@@galemtido Of course! :D I really love looking at characters' behavior in-depth and I was honestly relieved there's so much more to these characters rather than just "edgy sister doesn't trust people because sad story and the soft brother is a perfect uwu boy." You gave them a wonderful dynamic, where both are victims (sometimes of each other by accident) but neither are abusers (at least yet; we all know what road Vivian goes down). Fantastic writing, keep up the phenomenal work!
Heya, I know this is an older comment but I wanted to throw in my own 2 cents, particularly when it comes to terminology. I hesitate a bit when it comes to labeling Jackson as an enabler this early in the series, for a few reasons. Firstly, as a sibling of the same age, grappling with the same trauma, Jackson isn’t really in a position to stop Vivian’s behavior; or at least, he shouldn’t have to be, that’s a parent’s job. They’re both adolescents/young adults, I believe, and expecting one teenager to be responsible for the mental well being of another teenager is… bad. Secondly, I think the term “appeaser” fits better, as Jackson _does_ call out Vivian on her more toxic tendencies, several times, but he backpedals HARD when she gives an aggressive reaction. As someone with a sibling who has an unpredictable temper, this behavior is sadly very familiar to me. Jackson _desperately_ wants to be on Vivian’s good side, and I imagine the fear of losing her (in an emotional sense) like they lost their mom is a contributing factor. She’s the only stable amicable relationship he’s had for years, so of course he wants to keep it as smooth and problem free as possible.
However, I can easily see Jackson shifting from appeaser to enabler as he and Vivian train with their father. Desperate to remain on good terms with her, I can see him making excuses for her, ignoring warning signs, taking on more than his fair share of responsibilities and so on, until Vivian’s behavior finally comes to a head, and their relationship fractures.
We can see that Jackson is acting with the best of intentions and is trying to help her open up about their shared trauma. (See: “why are you so eager to force it out of me?!” Implying Jackson has inquired about this before) But Jackson is also just a kid himself, and he’s in waaay over his head. They BOTH need trauma counseling, and neither is equipped to be the other’s therapist.
There’s also a certain level of codependency between these two, I think, and that just further complicates things.
-@gaLEMtido (just tagging in case you wanna read my dumb essay about your OCs; love how Viv and Jack have evolved in this reboot!)- wow, okay UA-cam doesn’t like that feature anymore never mind
@@StellarComet Oh yeah, I guess “enabler” wasn’t the best term to use. Because enablers make excuses for behavior and Jackson just doesn’t know how to deal with the behavior. I’m not saying Jackson SHOULD be responsible for Vivian’s mental well-being - as you already said, he’s juggling the same trauma as her - probably just that unfortunately it’s not the best personality pairing, but you can’t force either to change. I guess we’ll see further on in the series whether or not he turns into a straight-up enabler type, or if he continues with mild appeasement.
@@StellarComet SUCH A GOOD ANALYSIS!! I bet you’re really going to like later episodes based off of what you said!
I LOVE the touch in the scene where Jackson is consoling Vivian, the butterflies mirror the characters situation. At least, I think that’s what’s happening!
I love how this is like a parallel universe where Iris kept Jackson and Vivian. And I also love how Vivian as so much depth to why she turned against her brother, and we also see where she really started her journey as the antagonist.
I was admittedly a little distracted by chat during the premier so this is after my second watch but legit I am so stoked to get to be along for this journey for a second time! I am super stoked to be able to play Vixy again, I'm excited to see where she and everyone else go in this new direction, thank you so much for allowing me back! Jackson's and Viv's relationship is already SO strong from episode one and it's so easy to see how much you've grown as both a storyteller and as an artist. Of course massive shout-outs to the whole crew for managing to make one cohesive as heck looking treat for the eyes! Also also also, my fellow cast? Knocked it out of the fuckin' park!
A very strong start and I trust it'll only get better as it goes on!
I DID NOT EXPECT TO SEE MY ART AT 24:41 AAAA I'm still proud of how I drew Atticus!
This episode was very worth the wait, I'm super excited for future productions after seeing this! This is honestly a masterpiece, it's very pleasing to look at, even the designs! The team did an EXTREMELY excellent job with this, super happy to be working with y'all!
Wait, Thats your art?
@@Dacoro_ae Yep! I drew it :D
@@Chiradez OMG, its so good i love it
@@Dacoro_ae AWW THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
You know, Apollo used to be one of my least favorite characters in the old series. In the reboot, he’s already my favorite. :D
It doesn't matter how many times that I watch this the animation still blows me away.
Bro this reboot caught me completely off-guard and I absolutely love it
FNFYSHSGDJD YES THE NOSTALGIA IS DELICIOUS TODAY-
I'm accepting both of these series as cannon, just living in different universes.
Congratulations! I just created tsh multiverse!
The IMPROVEMENT you’ve gone through while making this series is absolutely phenomenal!! This episode looks and sounds so good, and it flows amazingly!! The pacing is perfect and I’m just in love with the characters, plus the writing is absolutely on point. Can’t wait to see where the reboot goes!!
Mmmmm that editing is just *chef kiss*
What a great scene to kick off the reboot! Pacing is is incredibly difficult, and you pulled it off so nicely!
My child is all grown up now 🥲
Amazing job! I'm so proud of you and am so excited for the reboot!
THANK YOU BUBS 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️
I wish I could watch this when it premieres but ima be in class ;-;
Same...
You're still in school? :>
@@AlexaTheFox_Official well if u in different country maybe it’s last week or somethin.
14:03 Jackson compared to everyone else is just so amazing!
This episode was absolutely extraordinary! It was sad, funny, and of course very interesting! I absolutely loved and enjoyed! Again, thank you so much for all of the hard work and dedication you put into your art and really everything you do! Thank you so much to the other artists and people that contributed to this episode as well and for always working hard!
Yesssss! This reboot will be written in history books!
Well im exagerating but still.. It deserves to be..
YO ALEX this was amazing! You've improved so much and I love seeing these familiar characters in an all-new version of the story! The voice acting and artwork was wonderful and I think I may like this version of Vivian even more than OG Viv so far! Keep up the great work~!
I LOVE TSH SO MUCH I CANNOT EXPRESS THE FEELINGS IT GIVES ME. KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL WORK, LEM AND YOUR CREW. ❤️❤️❤️
I know!!!!
The stolen hope is one of the BEST things created
I just found this series out, so far the reboot seems like it has its potential.
ITS SO SAD 😭 ❤️💔
OMGGGG
Having only discovered your original series about a year ago I'm so excited to see where this goes. I always love seeing artists I follow improve and change. There's already such a world of difference between this reboot and its predecessor. And not sure how to describe it, but I felt such a deep sadness watching Vivian make her decision near the end knowing what I know from the original series. Already have a feeling this series is gonna be a real tear-jerker.
First of all, WOW???? This REALLY blew my socks off. Everything in this episode was just done so beautifully. The characters, the acting, the art, it’s all amazing!! This really is an incredible achievement and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the reboot! Second, it’s been my biggest honor to be a part of this team. There are SO many talented individuals who are just so kind and it’s been the biggest pleasure to work alongside everyone. CONGRATULATIONS ON EPISODE ONE AND HERES TO A GREAT SERIES!!
I absolutely LOVE this series so much!
Apollo - *teasing jackson*
Jackson - *taking it so literally as to kiss his paws*
Apollo - *freaked out*
I love Apollo now, he's less annoying and more jokingly funny! Also the plot line is so more interesting! You have improved so much over the years, and all of us are really proud! Can't wait for the next episode!
ive known about The Stolen Hope for years now and ive just been trying to find the time to watch it. and now that im actually seeing it...its just.....breath taking, this is fabulous
DAMN this was awsome. Everyone got such a glowup- ESPECIALLY Lunis!
I feel so sorry for Iris. If she had defeated Ayres, it would have been different.. Well, thank you very much for such a passionate project.
I am SO HYPED for Sharp's appearance in the series. He definitely was my favorite character in the last series because he seemed to be the only one who wasn't a dumbass at some point and actually was reasonable. And now he's trans rep! My boy deserves it!
I'm so excited to see all the amazing new designs come to life! I really love your character designing skills, the patterns and color schemes are all perfect. They look so nice!
Holy wow!! :0 This turned out amazing!!! Huge props to everyone who worked on this, gosh the artwork is so pretty and I love the color palettes here!! (I especially love the character designs, they’re all so unique from each other!) Great sound design and the voice actors are so good! The writing is very nicely done too, dialogue and story-wise! I wish you guys luck with this! Keep up the amazing work! :)
Vivian changed to evil right as Jackson made friends with Lunis and Apollo. It kills me to see what the difference is from how Vivian treated Jackson before that and after.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG AND ITS FINALLY HERE YES!!! I LOVE TSH AND IM SO GLAD ITS GOT A REBOOT!
Edit: I was here for the premiere!!! There was so much hype oml. The backgrounds are so beautiful aswell as the characters redesigns and style! I can't wait for the second episode!!! ❤
I love how the story is more about Vivian and Jackson, I like the new take to the story, it makes more sense that they would be more of the main characters rather the secondary characters.
LETS GOOO THIS IMPROVED SO MASSIVELY?? i genuinely love all the story changes and how theres a real, dangerous issue this time. well done !
Rip Iris 😔😔
I cannot stop rewatching it, I'm so honoured to support this project! Love hearing some old voices mixed with some fresh ones! The art team did amazing and I'm speechless.
Oh my gosh, I thought I commented on this earlier! But congrats on getting the first episode of the reboot out!
I am very interested in this direction that the reboot is taking, and I like the sibling dynamic between Jackson and Vivian, and the friendly interactions with Lunis, Apollo and Jackson. Apollo is a cute round boi, I do love his design. All of the VAs did a very good job!
Looking forward to more!
I don’t know how I did not see this episode until now. Dang UA-cam recommendations. I love the change of viewpoints especially with Vivian. The beginning with Ares is amazing tho. He is a little charming but he is evil lol
The episode released right as i went on vacation, glad i am finally able to get to it. The art, the music, the camera shots, the voice acting all fits so well to create an amazing first episode! Im very exited to see how the rest will be put together and watch as the story unravels between the two siblings ^^
this is THE BEST SERIE THAT I EVER SEE! IS FANTASTIC, AMAZING AND PERFECT
Vc por aqui :3
ALEX THIS IS INCREDIBLE!! I love everything, the new designs (LITERALLY THEY ARE SO GREAT I LOVE THEM), the dynamic between Jackson and Vivian, the way the story is playing out, and the art, which is immaculate!! All of the artists did so well, the backgrounds, shading, characters, expressions, atmosphere in each scenes, and everything was done so beautifully! The voice actors also did an incredible job!! I love each of the characters' voices so much! They were so clear and expressive, showing each characters' personality perfectly. Amazing job everyone!! I am so excited about this series!
This is one of the very very very few successful animation series on UA-cam! Many others have seemingly flopped, or the animators no longer update it. I’m very happy this is being rebooted, it’s so interesting and there had been so much improvement since the older version. Don’t get me wrong, the older version is very nice, but this one probably will be better! No, *definitely* be better! I’m so excited :)
I LOVE THIS THIS!!!!!!! The Voice actors, the Story, the Art the characters!!!! I love Jackson's and Vivian's relationship and I can't wait to see what happens next!!! Also Apollo is so funny!!! I can't wait to see baby boy Atticus!!!
IT IS HERE AT LAST! Everyone did such an amazing job putting this thing together! Watching it gave me lots of serotonin and I loved every second of it! The reboot is going to be so amazing and I can't wait to see how the rest of the series goes!
I do like the transition from Ares being a guy that was only doing the horrible actions he was doing in the previous one with some regret to the ares now that does not give a shit what he does regardless if he is influenced by the curse or not lol
MY GOD-
VIVAN AND JACKSON'S INTERACTIONS IS EXACTLY WHAT I CRAVE FOR! THE PURR- I-
OKOK- The fact that the original series started with the royal siblings and now the reboot is starting with the cursed siblings is just PERFECT! We get to see things from their perspective and I'm fucking HYPED FOR IT!!! I do have to say that Vixy and Vivan were a bit quiet in the last segment of the episode. I had to turn my volume all the way up to hear them properly. Maybe turn down the sounds of the crickets or turn up the vocals a bit for a better listening experience. Other than that, everyone did amazing!! I'm so pumped to see the next episode!!
I am in LOVE with Jackson is color pallete and design! he is a beautifull character and my favorite, also a amazing brother.
:TO HIS VOICE ACTER: your voice is yes
THIS IS SO AWESOME
Holy crap Lem everything about this is so well made- backgrounds, characters, designs, the plot- watching this was so intense and I’ve gotten chills.
I’m glad I was able to help as a colorist to bring this episode to life, I’m very excited for what you have in store for the rest of the series!!
Bro, I love the fan arts. THAT was so GOOD! Can't wait for another episode.
This was absolutely amazing! Your style in art, character design and story telling is so advanced! It is nice to see the difference between the first series and the reboot, you have improved so much! I really loved the scene and the performance that voice actors gave the character, I no lie got Chills during the opening scene and the ending scene (I don't want to say the scene exactly because of spoilers lol). I loved the characters interaction they were really well written, especially the relationship between Jackson and Vivian. Really out did yourself! Can't wait to see how epic this series gets!
❤️ Oh my god! Vivian and Jackson’s relationship warms my heart. I just know it’s gonna hit deep when something bad happens between them. Apollo and Lunis are such great characters as well, honestly being the only ones who are nice to them. I’m super excited to find out what happens next. You guys are amazing! ❤️
I am so excited for this! I don’t care if I gotta do work tomorrow morning I’m gonna be watching this from beginning to end! I am so proud of all of the hard work and dedication that you have always put into these masterpieces! You are an extraordinary artist and person!
LEM OMG YOU ARE YOUR TEAM DID AMAZING!
I love the new lore you've added for the story to make it freash and new, Don't even get me started on the new character design; they are just lovely, you have an amazing sense of color palette!
Your improvement for art has just been an amazing journey to follow, keep up the good work.
I enjoyed ever second of this, I can't want to see more from you
This episode was absolutely phenomenal. The lighting and the shading are so detailed and the scenes are so well written, especially each cat’s personality. It’s absolutely amazing. I cannot wait for the second episode. It’s going to be awesome. Keep up the good work 😊
coming back to this ep after the latest one is literally heartbreaking .. jack and viv love eachother so much and seeing their rift is so sad
I CANT BELIEVE ITS OUT! this is def one of my fav animated series on yt, i miss this so much, the nostalgia! ur characters always make me feel a pang of sadness in my heart when i realize they arent real, they are so welll developed and unique 🥺
Wow that was so good Jackson and Vivian hard more of a relationship
OH MY GOODNESS! I saw it on patreon but seeing it actually on youtube?!?!?! Alex you have improved SO much! With every drawing and backround, you can see the effort! The sound design is incredible and everyone did beautiful at their voice acting! The expressions are so powerful and the way the tweening is used is amazing! All of these amazing things come together to make one beautiful episode! You and the other people who are part of this project are talented!
THAT WAS SPECTACULAR! I cried seeing the characters again! This is so well put together, and the storyline is ALREADY AMAZING! your art has always been good, and your art experience now is so great!
Your so talented, and an amazing storyteller! I CAN TELL THIS IS GOING TO BE AN AMAZING SERIES AND EXPERIENCE!!!!
~ hope you and your fam stay safe!
Absolutely solid episode! This episode is a great start for TSH reboot! With more depth yet familiar quirks in every character from the previous series. And I can’t wait to see the new twists and turns you have in store for the series! Keep up the great work!
I like the shift in point of view. I loved Lunis and her story in the original, I mean long lost royalty, having to ascend to the throne early due to her mother going insane, powers being corrupted. It was an incredible story, but I feel as if this change in POV is really nice! There was so much potential for this sibling duo in the original imagine this one! Also I appreciate the fact that you tried giving the cats coats that aligned with what their parents coats were. It’s a nice detail! I like the redesigned Lunis as well she seems more natural.
Ooh this turned out great! It has so much potentional and I look forwards to see where it's going and with the new changes! :D I love Vivian and Lunis'new designs! Keep it up!!
Lunis’s voice actor makes her so much cuter. Also, the coloring, designs and voice acting is top notch.
Absolutely PHENOMINAL work!!!! Everything about this episode was amazing, from the writing to the artwork! All the voice actors did a fantastic job aswell! So excited to see what's to come in this reboot, truly a work of art!
Wow! I can see the incredible work and effort you have put into this first episode alone! I’m so happy to see improvement and I’m super excited for what’s to come! Keep up the great work!
Oh this is such a nostagia! I love your work Gal. Its one of the many which got me into the art community.
Oh....my...gosh! I’ve never been so excited in months! Finally! It’s here! Woo woooo! I love the depth given to the characters and how well the voice actors portray them! Absolutely stunning job!
Was stoked to find out that you rebooted the series! I remember I would spend months and months on waiting for the next episode of the first version. Happy that you’re making progress!! Good job, guys!
everything was handled so well, I felt like I was watching a professionally made show!! The scenes were well paced, all the major characters were very likable, the voice actors knocked it out of the park, the art and editing look really nice.... definitely looking forward to seeing where the story goes from here :D
I am so excited for this! I fell in love with the first series and I am so happy to get new content about it! I’m sure the reboot is going to be great, thanks for giving us this amazing show!
I have watched the older series and I have got to say, it's nice to be seeing a reboot! It really shows how much progress was made!
EDIT: OMG THOSE REDESIGNS THOUGH!!! I LOVE THEM HOLY SHIT-
EDIT 2: ALSO OMG APOLLO IS SO SMOL- he's a smol bean
Two years late to the party but I absolutely love how strong the designs are in this and the color palettes of the characters
When i look at the original episode 1 after this, i think to myself: Wow, its improved so much! The story and the animation too! Well done gaLEMtido!
Plus, going back to the story change, it's become more focused on jackson and vivian. Like their life behind the scenes from the older episodes.
Vivian is like proof that villains arnt born but broken
Some days I'm Vivian, some days not....
This took me a while to say this, but Lem, it's not only refreshing, but also admirable on how you've come this far since The Stolen Hope was completed and then rebooted. Everything about this is just- * chef's kiss *
YOOOOO this is amazing. I absolute adore what changes you made. And I am absolutely love the night shading, GORGEOUS!!!!!
I can’t wait for the next episode!!
Holy WOW! This was an absolute joy to watch! It was so interesting and nostalgic. I loved every minute of it! I’ve been a sub to you since the first episode of the original series. Seeing you grow was such an inspiration! You are one of the major the reasons I started animating in the first place! Thank you for all that you do!
I- I have no words to describe how much I liked it ....
First, you unbelievably improved heavily, watching your skills growing up like you do, I was heavily inspired from you only from your old art. And now this ????!!
I'm exited to see what will you bring in the precious future you make ! I was always thinking about this episode, at school at home at streets and everywhere , I watch it many times now , this really touched me , and when you'll work on the next episode I promise this is going to be too good ! love it very much good luck for the next episodes Alex !
Woah!!! This is fantastic! You've improved so much since your Stolen Hope finale, it's amazing!!
The beginning reminds me of some of the TV dramas I watch such as Line of Duty because of the thrilling music and tone. The art is to die for, and the scenery and backgrounds are completely beautiful. Not to mention the phenomenal voice acting. I didn't think the original series could be improved but boy you have proved me wrong!!
Fantastic job!
OMFG!!!!!! I cannot fathom how incredible this episode is, how excited I bloody am and how much you've improved in storytelling, the style/art/illustration, backgrounds and animation!!! A cannot wait until the next episode reveals itself, and blows us away even further. Love you and you series!!!
P.S- Jackson and Vivian are SOOOO CUTE!!!!!
YOOO! that was amazing, and well-executed! I adore the dynamic everyone had, and it definitely has got me waiting on the next episode! I'm also glad that THS is still named that way, and instead of Lunis being stolen away it could mean the Empire's hope, Jackson and VIvian, being stolen! I adore for more content with the cast, can't wait for more to come! :>
