I know that there are two versions of this song written for Luna. To explain a bit why I chose this particular one, Luna’s Reply, I would like to quote the author of the lyrics, Swords-and-Bandages: _„Another clarification I should perhaps add is my thoughts on how Luna's corruption works. She was obviously in Nightmare Moon mode when she was first released from banishment, though she would have been lucid and repentant when she made her reply to Celestia. Drawing from real-life experiences with depression, I interpret her as being in a constant internal struggle: some days, resentment and anger drive her mad, and the darker side of her dominates her. On days like these she stares with baleful eyes onto Equestria, wishing for destruction. Some days, she understands why everything is the way it is, and rationalizes her situation while remaining emotionally distant from it. Some days, she just wants to go home, but she knows she can't because she must be punished--which makes her mind spiral between guilt, repentance, and despair. Her state of mind was a mix of the last two when she composed this reply._ _When the magic enforcing her banishment broke, some of Luna's emotional restraint may have broken as well, leading to her going Nightmare Moon mode. I suspect, though, that Luna did not lose all of her mind to resentment, and may have been sabotaging herself from the inside in her second attempt to bring the world to eternal night, ending with the Elements giving her a jolt out of her negative emotional cycle in addition to purging her of any external dark influences. Much of her subsequent absence from the show was spent in catching up to the times (to a degree) and getting much-needed emotional healing. All of this, though, is neither here nor there."_ source: www.deviantart.com/swords-and-bandages/art/Luna-s-Reply-351236424 Of course, everybody favours one version and that’s fine. I just personally agree with this quote and therefore chose to stick with it.
you're joking i love all 3 of them, and even more when they are arranged as a combination for a trio, then is where you really start to understand what was happening in the story
this is a really good quote and reason even in the show luna's reply is a good song if there was one in a scene of luna on the moon in the show she liturelly has a nightmare over and over and her reason is " I created the monster to give me the same nightmare each time i sleep to punish myself for the things i did as nightmare moon " LUNA'S WORDS so i think if she was nightmare moon on the moon during her banishment she would sing the other song scolding celetia but if she was luna during her banishment she would sing luna's reply so i like both songs equally but if i had to choose a song that really repersents luna , Luna's reply then , but i had to choose what best repersents nightmare moon the other one
5:30 I was really confused like, wait.... OHHH luna is watching the Earth disappear because SHE is in the moon and Celestia is the one lowering it. THIS IS SUCH AN AWESOME AND UNIQUE SCENE!!!!! I FREAKING CRIED
The addition of the demon soldiers gave a lot more context to the battle which was so cool. I always thought that the show just skimmed over it like “oh here you go” like they didn’t care. This adds more context and I love it. The jewelry Luna wears on her dream realm is so pretty. I also like that you made this whole video seem like she was dreaming this whole video until the very end. Nice touch.
This was absolutely amazing. The details within the artwork, how you blended colors, and brought forth our night princess is absolutely outstanding. This is such a heartwrenching song and you certainly did it justice.
This seems a most worthy successor to WarpOut's "Lullaby for a Princess" animation. Very well done indeed and just as powerful as the aforementioned video.
I love your depiction of their armor. It makes Nightmare look so menacing, like an actual foe. And putting Celrstia in similar colors really highlights this grey area I think everyone just kind glosses over. Fantastic.
I'm not a MLP fan but I came across the Lullaby for a princess song, which lead to Luna's reply and I saw a link for this in that videos comments. I'm so glad I followed it. That was a fantastic animation! Great job!
You should definitely watch MLP. The lore is amazing and the creatures are drawn beautifully. Even if you keep seeing them flaunt about friendship a lot. It's worth it. I'm very sad to see MLP:FiM end.
This was such a perfect compliment to the "Lullaby" that it literally had me in tears throughout most of it. If Hasbro or one of their partners ever decides to make a movie or episode dedicated to the life stories of the Sisters, I hope they find a way to sneak at least a hint of this melody into it. That would make it perfect, too. ^.^
I literally cried. I truly, genuinely cried. There was just so much emotion in your singing voice and it was just so beautiful. Truly, you have an amazing voice and fantastic artistic talent. (The wings were so DETAILED, I love it!)
Thank you so much! Yeah, I really love drawings wings.. Crystal Bell performed the vocals in this song, she is incredibly talented. I'm glad you enjoyed the animatic :)
I love your designs for Nightmare’s armor and Celestia’s look, it really makes them closer to their “elements,” Celestia being a fair and beautiful ruler while Nightmare being a “Nightmare”
I never knew Lullaby For a Princess had a fan made reply song by Luna until now. This literally just showed up in my suggested videos. But I can say with ease that this is definitely just as emotional and beautiful as Celestia’s song.
Whoah! The quality of drawings is stunning! This really shows where animatics can shine: each individual frame can be crafted and refined to such amazing level of polish, that like half of frames could be easily hanged on wall. Like wow! (Also love the style, and props / royal clothing is really damn fancy. Ah! This just pleases my eyes.)
This song is just as brilliant as Celestia’s lullaby. She felt so guilty as well as Celestia because she believed that she was to blame for this and she didn’t feel any actual anger towards her sister. It’s amazing how they’re not furious at each other but rather devastated that this was the outcome of a tragedy which both of them couldn’t forgive themselves for. This could have gone too ways but I believe that out of both of the brilliant outcomes whether they were angry or not at each other I believe them just holding guilt to themselves is the best of the two although they’re all certainly brilliant and interesting. And Luna actually admired her sister for being brave enough to banish her sister which is an interesting choice but it makes sense that she wouldn’t be mad because she knew how horrible her actions were. I also noticed that Luna was on the brink of tears as she sang. But when she came out of the moon the tantapus took control of her mind again and forced her to do the horrible things she did.
I love Luna’s lines and these moments. She begs, in tears: “Sister, please take me back. Please,” I love the way her horn glows. “Look out on her kingdom and sigh,” “Dejected, she cried “Surely, there is no pony who loves me or finds any love in my night.” “Celestia, you loved me much more than I knew.” She tries to reach out, but her wing passes through Celestia. She gazes at the sky, crying in pain & loneliness.
late comment but i really really love how you drew inspiration from the lullaby for a princess animation but didnt let it completely control how you went about the progression. I really like your take on nightmare moon's armor set, it looks amazing
The artwork is absolutely amazing! I love the artwork, and I can't believe I'm so late =') Great job! It's fantastic! Kudos to the singer too! They did a wonderful job!
If you're still working on this; I wish you luck. WarpOut's animatic was what drew me into this fandom, and when that animation released; bit of a tear came out. The original "Luna's replay" made me stay around, so to see it animated... it shows me that I didn't make a mistake being a part of this fandom. So, thank you.
I waited so long for a animated reply! This is sooooo incredible! You style is so beautiful! Every single frame was a gorgues artwork itself! I loveeee this animation! All this ideas and creativity! You are such an great artist. I especially loved the scene where she tried to fly back on earth but bounced away and at the end where she kinda had a dream and went to celestia. I loveee this animation! It has the same style as lullaby for a princess with celestia, especially the memories look exactly the same! Now I am a big fan from you! Thank you for this animation! 🤩😍😁❤️
Oh my god. The "forgive me being so blind" have different meanings for both, especially after the line "you love me more that I know" for Luna and "Luna, you're loved so much more than you know" For Celestia was like she's apologizing for being so blind about her sister's situation. For Luna was like she's apologizing for being so blind of the people who actually love her so much like her sister.
Oh my gosh! I love this! I just realized I wanted to see an animation of this so desperately, but this animatic is still great! REALLY DESERVES SOME LOVE
@@priscillachapkylo934 More specifically, his Transformers Prime incarnation. Now I’m imagining a shadowbolt as Starscream, using Luna’s purification as an opportunity to seize command for themself. “NIGHTMARE MOON HAS FALLEN! I am your new leader!”
Amazing work, so well done ! It's really nice to see someone fully flesh out Luna's side and you did it wonderfully, everything was so visually in sync with the emotions, tone and vibe, bravo ! ♥️🌈🌈
By God, this is beautiful. The drawings: I loved every one of them. Your attention to detail in every frame is absolutely stunning. I got goosebumps when Luna thought she was with Celestia again. Man, that was so beautiful. And the wonderful vocals and lyrics. Just...wow 💗
you know, it's videos like this that i want popping up in my recommendations more... watching literal grass grow or random meme compilations is nice, but this right here is a core reason why i even put up with youtube shenanigans, lmao. love the work that went into this! my only complaint is that i didn't see it sooner ;D
I like this version of the song better, it would make sense with luna also trapped in her own mind cause of nightmare moon with her regretting the actions she taking.
Those are some beutiful armor designs that are actually kind of functional while still representing the character well. Luna even got a Sans moment! And Celestia's Hair!
I've been looking for someone who has made an animated video to go along with the song and not just put the lyrics in a picture in the background. I also loved what she said at the end

Yeah, I kind of wish they'd done a couple episodes about Luna and Celestia growing up together and becoming the princesses we know.
Why is UA-cam only showing me this NOW and not SOONER?!

Also UA-cam: "Anyways, check this recommendation about Lyla Building a portal"

This is criminally underrated
It just sadly came out to late. But its beautiful for those who still stick with the fandom.
Yeah that’s sucks
Yes
No it’s illegally underrated
It is
This was beautiful. personally I like both versions because both tell different stories as each reflects half of her.
Hello there.
You think we'll get anyone in this comment from the server?
@@patriciodaniels7168 Which Discord server? The official Fimfiction one? Or the CotG one?
Well because this version is Luna's song, and the other is Nightmare Moon's actually ;)
This was absolutely amazing. The details within the artwork, how you blended colors, and brought forth our night princess is absolutely outstanding. This is such a heartwrenching song and you certainly did it justice.
Thank you very much for your kind words!
I can't believe I found this so late. The visuals are astounding, the way you told the story, everything- breathtaking!
This deserves more love!
The visuals are pretty subpar.
This seems a most worthy successor to WarpOut's "Lullaby for a Princess" animation. Very well done indeed and just as powerful as the aforementioned video.

Same,I just remembered this was a thing,glad I watched it tho!
I always tear up at 4:36. "I..i love you. I miss you" the way her voice cracks like that. Damn that is talent 👏

Hey
Me!
Sup!
Hiii
Mee
When she said
"Please sister, take me back"
I felt that🥺

This is the Luna version of Lullaby For A Princess I love it.
"Forgive me for being so blind" This Line in both songs hit different....
*Lullaby For A Princess flashbacks*
This video, even being an animatic, should have at least 10x the views it has now. I mean, it’s been months!
Seriously underrrated

What’s weird is that princess Luna and princess celesta reminds me of Elsa and Anna
...Omg! I see it now!
And they both remind me of genderswapped versions of Loki and Thor 😅
