*Some context, cause let's admit it some of you are so confused:* - Nyx is salty because Lyner's mom came to his quiet, tourist destination planet and basically destroyed it and the people inside it except him. So he's out for revenge. A phrase here which means 'kill everything she loves', and the pendant that Lyner is wearing (which I'll get into later) is definitely is bonus. If you're wondering what's the deal with his smoke, it's because his planet was known for specializing in herbs, but yeah, now that everyone's gone, _might as well get his enemies high and murder them while they're in their drug-induced euphoria._ - Kay-Ren used to be a construction worker, she's got insane strength skills, which explains why she can tackle two people without breaking a sweat. Her fam is currently missing. Upon first meeting, she and Lenna had a fight each other, and she _almost_ won. Kay would have squished dearest Lenna under a boulder if Mr. Lenna's dad hadn't interfered (that's good, otherwise we'd have no Lyner, and no Lyner means sadness). He managed to convince her to not kill his daughter and instead work for them, thus becoming Lenna's first servant. - Mir is Lyner's partner. Initially, he tried to assassinate Lyner (because of his mom) and start an uprising against his family, but eventually they fall in love because Lyner is one adorable bean. Also, they have unique bedroom activities which we will _not_ get into. - Jet is... Jet. I didn't get much info on him, but I guess he cooks food and drinks alcohol. (Update: alright, so he used to be in the mafia, really messed up big-time by making leader's daughter pregnant and gets imprisoned. Lenna gets him out, and in exchange for his services, he asks her to destroy his planet, which is why he feels guilty and likes drinking to wash away the depression brought by requesting an inhuman creature to destroy your home planet. Fun stuff.) - Lyner is the son of Lenna. Why is he not like his murderer of a mother who goes around slaughtering innocents in the name of peace? (Look, I'm just mad she had to make Nyx go evil, like what's a herb planet gonna do? Drug everyone up and then slaughter them--- hey, hey wait a minute...) That's cause she's usually away where her duty calls her, and he spent a lot of time with his wonderful father, Hansel, who taught him the wonders of kindness, which is why Mir fell in love with him. Instead of finding a mini Lenna, he finds a sweet boy who did nothing wrong. - The people we see in Lyner's vision is his family: Lenna (or Lena, the older posts spelled it that way), aka lady with the wings, Hansel, aka man with horns, and his sister is Aggie, aka the younger girl with the horns. - The pendant is a family heirloom in Lyner's family, and it's passed down on their child. It has to be given to them right after their born though, otherwise it doesn't work. It's usually given to the firstborn child. The pendant grants its wearer immortality, immunity, super strength, and cosmic power. There are only two pendants. Their origins are unknown to Lyner. If you take the pendant away from the wearer, it will lose all senses and control, and it will do everything to get a replacement. If it doesn't get one, it will disintegrate and die. - In Lenna's defense, she only wants peace in the universe and she has to do unsavoury things to get there, but eh, I'm still mad at her. So yeah. I've only seen this animatic today... and I've rewatched it for more than I'd like to admit. The characters are cute as heck (Lyner screams in a distance), and the story's got me intrigued. All info comes from Lazy Eule's Tumblr, if I'm wrong at some parts, feel free to correct me. This animatic is gonna blow up. Anyways, wow, this was fun. Thanks for making this, Lazy! Edit: _now here's more character intros and my theories in case you want to explore more of this lovely stuff, it's very, and I mean very lengthy tho, and if you read the top, you have your basics covered already_ - Mr. Lenna's Dad was the previous holder of Lyner's pendant. He has to be pretty persuasive to talk down a strong, angry 'about-to-murder-someone' midget. Mr. Lenna's Dad was an intimidating ruler, and that's where Lenna follows, although she's softened up a bit because of Hansel. Notice the past tense? Yeah, Mr. Lenna's Dad is dead. 'How can you know, stranger?' you may ask, and let me tell you why. Remember the rule with the pendants? Yeah. I wanted to tell you not to worry, and that he probably died of natural causes because I didn't want to peg Lenna to be as heartless enough to forcefully take the pendant from her old pops and watch him disintegrate. And I realized. Pendant grants immortality. Whoopsies. So... you can just imagine what happens behind the scenes... I imagine Lenna just going to her father like, "I'm sorry dad, I love you and all, but I'm gonna give birth to my firstborn child, and he'll be needing that," and then proceeds to yank the pendant out. - And here's where my guesswork comes in based off snippets I know. Lenna's still kicking and alive somewhere. Nyx doesn't want her to be alive, but what can he do? She has a freaky pendant that makes her unkillable and unstoppable. There's only two pendants in the whole universe, one's with Lenna and the other's with... Her son. So sneaky little Nyx hatched a plan to garner the attention of Lyner and Co., Nothing too big, otherwise Mother would come. No, he only needed Lyner's pendant. Plus, it's easier for him to take a pendant from less experienced Lyner compared to Mrs. Pacifistic Murderer. I'm not too sure if he knows how the whole transferring of pendant works, but if he does know, then I can assume his plan goes somewhere along the lines of: a) forcibly take Lyner's pendant, hope Lyner doesn't kill him in the process, escape, and relish in Lenna's grief as he takes away her only son _Or._ b) drug up Lyner, make _Lyner_ fight against his mother, which will be harder for Lenna since it's her own son she's fighting, so she'll hold back more, increasing drugged Lyner's chance of winning. If Lyner wins, then great! If Lenna wins, then he should start digging his own grave. However, even if they both die in the process (which I doubt, it's not gonna be _that_ kind of story), it's all great for Nyx cause he killed two birds with one stone. Plan b didn't work out as well as he thought because Lyner brought his friends, and as we all know, the power of friendship saves the day. If Nyx is smart, he would have had a backup plan besides 'smoking and making people dance'. Either he escapes, or Lyner manages to capture him, and they win. Since he had Kay-Ren under his mind magic, he can hold her hostage in order to make Lyner cooperate, yada-yada, you know how it goes. - On that note! I also have another theory. It sounds far-fetched but hear me out. You see the thing that killed Mir and Lyner's family in Lyner's nightmare? I think that's some juicy foreshadowing. If you pause at the right moments when monster big mouth comes up, you can notice a few striking details such as: The monster's ears. It has that unique design I've only ever seen in Lyner's family. So, we've established that monster is his relative (of course, it can be "just a coincidence", but it seems very unlikely that this slipped Lazy's attention). Also, notice the collar. That's where they always put the pendant (see: Mr. Lenna's Dad, Lenna, and Lyner). Monster is glowing the same glow as pendant, but has no pendant. You can see that the tie is undone, no glowing stone, and monster is looking unhinged. I tried counting the corpses by the monster's feet but it's hard to tell if there really are three corpses or two. Anyways, it's possible that Lenna loses her pendant (probably due to Nyx), goes crazy, and it's a battle between Lyner and his mom, kind of like my other idea, only this time, the other way around. It's also possible that Lenna dies, someone else gets her pendant, but that doesn't make sense if you have to take into account that the pendant can only be transferred at birth, unless Lenna's been missing for an extremely long amount of time (and I doubt that since Aggie's young, and monster looks considerably older). My problem with "Lenna is monster in Lyner's vision" is that the monster isn't wearing what Lenna wears, and Lazy's depiction of a crazy ex-pendant holder is more uncontrollable tentacle teethy (... you get what I mean) and less smug smile, "hi there, I killed your loved ones, now it's your turn to die." Maybe the "someone got Lenna's pendant" theory works if we see another character with those defining Voxelle ears, and if they found a way through the "must be transferred at birth" issue (doesn't explain the loose collar but my brain is running on coffee fumes, and I need sleep, but I procrastinated, so here I am). Edit: It just occurred to me that it is possible that another pendant-wielder could exist in the universe, after all it is a big place. Whose to say there aren't any other pendants? All we have is info _from_ Lyner's family. Maybe a Voxelle, but distantly related from Lyner's family. It would make sense with these inconsistencies. About the corpses, if we're being considerate with the shapes, I guess we can count the the 'flat pointy thing' as Lenna. Note that none of these are confirmed. I'm just guessing how things turn out, and this is becoming more of a ramble than anything. Thanks for reading this essay, until next time on 'holy crap, how long is this comment?' Edit Edit: Apologies for the word vomit, haha, especially to those who read through the whole thing.
oh my god I love you forever,,,,, I was on lazy's tumblr trying to gather up as much info I could so I could know who these beautiful characters are but it's hard, since I'm on mobile. so like, thank you
@@Kuromaryy It's in the video's description. Nyx is the guy singing. Lyner is the one that dances with Nyx. Square glasses is Mir. Irisless man is Jet, and small girl is Kay-Ren.
probably my favorite thing about this is that the reason one of the characters evaded the smoke was because they were just THAT freaking short and the reason they got infected by it later was because somebody was HOLDING THEM HIGH ENOUGH FOR THEM TO REACH IT
Him- "Ladies and Gents this is the moment you've been waitin for" Me, someone who has seen this exact animatic almost 10 times, and is somehow so intrigued and loves these characters and the animation in general- *heavy breathing*
LMAO ME TOO I ALSO RESEARCHED THE TUMBLR AND NOW IM TOTALLY HERE FOR THIS. I WISH ITD BECOME A TV SHOW OR SOMETHING LMAO THEYRE SO CUTE AND THE STORY IS SO GOOD AAAH
Can we just please admire the fact that Nyx can walk down stairs, dance and almost kill a bunch of people in HIGH HEELS i can’t even stand up on them half the time
@Rain Coat The black eyed boy(Lyner)'s mom destroyed Nyx's planet, leaving him the only one who survived. So he wanted vengeance on Lenna. That's why he was mainly focused on Lyner and his amulet(which is a pretty powerful thing to be the holder of)
I love it when people will turn songs like this into something completely different from what it's originally supposed to be. I used to listen to this song and feel hyped and excited, but now that I've seen this, I can only see it as a villain trying to trap the protagonist in a world of happiness, only to use it againsy them by tearing it all down. But the part that really got me is when he sings, "Impossible's coming true, it's intoxicating you." And he's literally blowing smoke at everyone, intoxicating them into an illusion. All I'm trying to say is I've watched this too many times now and everytime I rewatch it, I find something else to geek out about. Thank you, and enjoy the views.
You've summed up my entire mood after watching this one animatic. Literally it's such good story telling the over writes the original and its absolutely loveable!
It always surprises me how good of a introduction song The greatest show is. Though I really want to know more about these characters their just interesting. Is it like a d&d campaign inspired story? Cause it gives me that feeling though if it’s different that would also be cool.
Im glad that you're interested in them ;;w;;!! if you want to know more about them you can always visit my tumblr huehue that's where i mostly post about them!
For a more coherent comment, I absolutely love how charismatic and charming this dude is. His dymanic with the other characters totally makes him really alluring to me. When he started making everyone dance, I thought: oh good god I'm falling for a fictional (villian?) again I need help
I second that one. Nyx brings out a version of me that a seldom see. It’s just, wow. He’s just so...wow. I honestly am just...yeah I’m pretty sure im also in love with a fictional antagonist. At least Nyx is an antagonist in this scene.
Honestly same. He's hot and i absolutely love how he interacts with them. He gives off a beautiful yet menacing appearance. Can't stop loving this guy.
I see, that way mind controlling gas, average height sword swings, headbutts and more cant affect me? Smart! If only I wasn’t already most likely taller than the villain.
IM NOT EVEN DONE WATCHING HALF OF THE VIDEO BUT I HAD TO PAUSE JUST TO SAY HOW GREAT THIS IS, FRAME BY FRAME IS REALLY HARD, CREATING OCS AND A STORYLINE ARE REALLY HARD, FINDING A FITTING SONG IS REALLY HARD- YET YOU DO ALL OF THOSE AND MAKE IT LOOK ABSOLUTELY STUNNING LIKE GODDAMB
I know this animation was meant to be serious and actually show some conflict with the characters but my god each of Nyx dance moves where so passionate and attractive. I seriously love this character, his design is perfect. Like if I were a villain I’d want that dudes energy.
@@rainydaisies7539 definitely. If someone gonna kill me I hope they're either hot, super smart so they couldn't find him, or just murder me painlessly.
Imma be honest he's the reason I've seen this an amount of times I can not possibly explain to you because he.is.so. so. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I love how Nyx doesn’t seem genuinely evil- he looks so, calm when he’s dancing and doing all this. And obviously seems to show little care for our main protagonists, only for Lyner because of his bitterness towards Lyners mom, and even as he’s ‘defeated’ he just seems very relaxed yet stern. You can tell he has an artistic and more enthusiastic side, but has lost so much he doesn’t even care about anything else except getting revenge. Yet it’s not grim of him too either- maybe I’m looking way into this- either way he’s kinda hot 😍
Now I’ll never be able to listen to this song without thinking of a very attractive villain manipulating his victims into a false state of happiness. The meaning has changed forever. Plus, the growing intensity at 0:32 then 0:45 feels especially panicked now. _I love it._
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the absolute badassness in that animation from 0:16 to 0:20? That was amazing. I loved it all but those few seconds were my favourite
Here's my little theory on the figure in Lyner's hallucination; I think the smoke at first is showing him is deepest desire. His family is happy and together, and Mir and himself being hopelessly in love with each other. (I'm kinda wondering whether Lenna knows about the relationship and how she feels about it). Then the smoke starts showing him his deepest fear. Sort of like a trip gone bad... He sees his father, sister, and Mir dead. Murdered. And the killer? A combination of Lenna and himself! More accurately what he's afraid that he could become. I'm not sure whether it's because he's afraid to become a ruthless killer like his mother / what could happend if he doesn't learn to control his powers / or if he loses his pendant. Notice how his mother isn't lying dead with the others. I also noticed that the clothing the figure is wearing is very similar to Lyner's own in the video. He's wearing black pants, a fully bottomed shirt and his pendant with two black ribbons. The figure is wearing black pants, a shirt, and not to mention that the figure seems to be the same specie as Lyner (see the ears) and their hair have part in the same place (and the same part as Lenna). The shirt is more open than Lyner's and the pendant is missing and it seems like there used to be something around the figure's neck (the ribbon hanging loosely around their neck), so that might tie in to the theory that he's afraid to lose the pendant and what would happen if he did. I mean think about it for a bit... Lyner's a kind hearted, gentle pacifist with the power to destroy worlds if he so wishes. A power that he doesn't have complete control over or completely understands. That has to terrifying. And seeing as Lyner is described as an over thinker, it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that he would worry about something like that. On another note: Holy cow I loved every second of this and I am now following on UA-cam, Instagram & Tumblr and can't wait to learn more about this world or the characters in it! The art style is amazing and the characters are super likeable 😍
Add on there were four bodys so his mother was included in the death count. He is deffo afraid of loosing his pendant and going on a rampage killing everything in his path.
I think that actually now that Ihave some context from comments on other videos but not from social media cuz i have none, I think that figure might be what Lyner fears of becoming (again) because of the video that was out last night the Wolf one, and I think that actually Lyner fears becoming a monster like that again, or going rogue or becoming like his mother. This is probably confusing I hope it’s not but- idk, this is only what I know from only YT, the comments, and teh barely little knowledge I got from the videos and yeah.
lyner had me throwing a fit like....who gave that child the right to be so fekkin wholesome. i love him. precious bb. he deserves love. they all do in their own lil special way.
Let me try and see what's going on- Fancy man has been introduced, he has the power to make people high and control them. He manages to make one of the group members high. Our member goes and dances with Fancy man. It then happens to our other buddy, long hair and then glasses boi. Everything turns into a magical ballroom. Little baby is confused, why are people being possessed and why are they dancing? Little baby finds Long Hair and takes him back to reality. They find glasses boi and do the same. They look at their best friend who's dancing with Fancy man. Glasses Boi is the most mortified, he loves our friend. Fancy man makes their friend highx2, causing him to see perfect things, like his lover, Glasses Boi. Then he starts seeing strange and bad things. Then he is saved by glasses boi. They love. Little baby tackles Fancy man, who is angry. He then gets his army of possessed people to defeat our group. Edit: I'm sorry- I know there are names for these characters but I can't help but call Fancy man, Fancy man.
I think sharp tooth dude’s mum or something did something to fancy guy, and now he’s trying to get revenge? He looks hella pissed when sharpy tooth reminds him of her, soo...also monster in hallucinations might be symbolic of how he views whoever that (brother??cousin??) guy was or might be. Or he might have literally become a mcfricking monster or something idk mate
After seeing Nyx's background, it can be confirmed that villains are just people who weren't saved. Nyx isn't really in the wrong for wanting to take revenge on Lenna, and of course, he's warped after what he's been through.
DUUUUUUDE THE PART WHERE THE SMALL WAS WAS TRYING TO GET TO EVERYONE AND THE BEAT GOT LOUDER I FELT ACTUAL DANGER!!! I SAW THE WIP ON YOUR TUMBLR AND LOVED IT BUT THE END RESULT IS 1000X BETTER THAN WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE LIKE!!!
I know this is a joke but Kay-Ren is actually older than all of them, her kind has a long lifespan and she has a waifu and a son. Sorry for being a Tumblr nerd :/
This animatic, universe, and these characters: _Exist_ My will to live: Restored My creativity and motivation: Through the roof My general entire _being_ in general: Happy (finally) I don't know how or why but this entire thing has made me extremely happy?? It's made me want to actually work on my own characters and stuff?? You've managed to make me feel happy again?? This is all because of an animatic?? Amazing job.
No but like same! I havent been motivated to do anything nonetheless start drawing again, but when I watched this I got thw biggest urge to work on my own projects. I don't know why but everytime I have a problem with motivation or creativity this video just fixes it?
yknow, same, i call this perfection, and im not even kidding, im really happy thats why i keep rewatching it so much, it inspires me so muuuuch i loove itt TwT
0:53 - 1:00 I can't stress enough how much I love this part. It gives off such an eerie vibe with the happy lighting change with the creepy danger things omg
THE MAIN BAD GUY MAKES ME FEEL FEELINGS I DONT LIKE THIS WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME aaaaAAAAAA he’s so sexy You have a talent and have an intoxicating art style Keep it up seriously
*they're 2D drawings, don't be attracted to them* *they're 2D drawings, don't be attracted to them* *they're 2D drawings, don't be attracted to them* *they're 2D drawings, don't be attracted to them* *they're 2D drawings, don't be attracted to them*
My thoughts that no one asked for. 0:22 _That_ is a coat. 0:28 How is he even walking in those heels? 0:34 Hypnosis vape? 0:41 Definitely hypnosis vape. 0:57 New favorite frame of anything ever. 1:19 DON'T TAKE OUT THE PENDANT!! DON'T DO IT! 1:35 You're about to die, Nyx. 2:03 Is this a flashback? A premonition? Just imagination? 2:24 Why does that look like Lyner with long hair and no pendant? 2:24 Nyx looks so done. 2:44 No, he got Kay-Ren! 2:51 Still the best coat. The moral of the story: Be short in order to avoid mind control and Nyx might have a crush on Lyner.
Ive only known Nyx for 3 minutes but i already love him,,, but hes evill,,, i am torn. Also i wanna give Lyner a hug he seem like hes been through alot :(( looking forward to more content with these guys!!
Not gonna lie, I thought Lyner was Nyx's kid and that's why he was so focused on him, and looked so happy to be dancing with him; and why he wanted to keep Lyner under the influence. Then I saw Nyx's background vid. This is absolutely fantastic, you've done such a wonderful job with the animation and your characters are brilliant!
Tiny The Weirdo I think what this person meant to say is that most animatics out there are literally just pictures with slight movement, often use tweeking, and not that many frames (somewhat like a storyboard). This person is just surprised that there is at least some rough animation mixed into it (which is an actual animatic).
Tiny The Weirdo Ahah. The term animatic has been gotten lose and lost its actual meaning due to UA-cam. Animatics with little animation and is just frames timed well with the music is close to storyboard rather than an animatic. An animatic is rough animation or incomplete animation, which is this video.
I can’t accurately explain in words how this animatic makes me feel. Maybe it’s Brendon Urie’s melodious voice, or maybe it’s the characters, or their situation, or a mixture of all. Now, I have never seen these characters before today, I have never had the chance to stumble across this channel, and I have no idea what’s happening (I have a little bit of background now thanks to ‘I See’s comment) but I can wholeheartedly say that I am in love. I absolutely adore this video and I just watched it for the first time EVER just a few minutes ago. I can’t explain why I feel this way, haha, but I have accepted that I love this masterpiece. Thank you, dear creator, for sharing your beautiful characters. This animatic makes me so happy.
THIS IS WHY THIS SLY VOICE WAS FAMILIAR ToT This bish damnit him again... And i gotta agree this is a mix of his voice and the art and the character's personnality ~^~
so I've watched this animatic like 15 times? maybe 25? the expressions, the characters, and animatic in general is just so good, also the plot keeps me coming back (by plot I mean Nyx)
Ok but like, clearly the guy singing is some sort of “bad guy”, but he is immediately my favorite out of all the characters... why do I always like the “villain” character?
I love the very short story told in just this song. And I love that all the villain’s plans got wrecked simply because “smoke rises, I’m short, and you were stupid enough to underestimate me.” I was cheering that little guy on throughout the whole piece, and then they’re the one taken over at the end? Brilliant!
I am obsessed with the animation during "And all that was real is left behind"? The transition from the lip-sync with prominent teeth lines to the face is reminding me sm of some style choices I've seen and loved in the past. Just love me a very tired, feral look.
I’m not lying when I say, I have watched this 14 times, and it hasn’t gotten old. I deeply look forward to another animatic if you make on. The characters all catch my eye and the whole idea and how you portray it is just- amazing. This is my new favorite animatic on youtube
oh my god I don't even know where to begin here. The character design??? the choreography???? the fluid motion???? honestly this is stellar and I can't wait to see more from you, what an amazing gift you've given us!!
I know I'm late for this but 1. Your art style is phenomenal 2. The grasp you have on anatomy, perspective, and expression is just w o a h 3. The story-line, characters, and background added together (plus the music) all make every one of your videos atmospheric and immersive in a way that has made me (personally) re-watch your videos on a nearly daily basis, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who does that 4. Hope you have a good day, and stay safe
* inhale * * exhale * *SO* i may or may not have watched this everyday for 2 weeks for 10 times, *but* heres the thing. This vid is literal perfection in everyway. It is an animatic, not mv which i appreciate so much. Every part of this has perfect timing to song, and by that i not only mean certain tics, also the emotion which that timing gives me. its beautiful. The style is ofc beautiful, everyone knows. Drawings even tho we can see theyre not polished in every way (i think) still looks clean and very nice. And just in one (beautiful that always give me feels) song you showed one chapter/arc/story and that is beautiful. i would tell specifically where i get feels and goose bumbs, but i dont think u want to read a 3 pages esay. When i first watched this i literally couldnt breathe and belive i saw what i saw. so yeah, thank you for coming to my ted talk, this was beautiful, ty for doing what u do
Bro this deserves more likes- you pretty much summed up all the emotions you get when watching this. It’s cool to see I wasn’t the only one left speechless ^^

*Some context, cause let's admit it some of you are so confused:*
- Nyx is salty because Lyner's mom came to his quiet, tourist destination planet and basically destroyed it and the people inside it except him.
So he's out for revenge. A phrase here which means 'kill everything she loves', and the pendant that Lyner is wearing (which I'll get into later) is definitely is bonus.
If you're wondering what's the deal with his smoke, it's because his planet was known for specializing in herbs, but yeah, now that everyone's gone, _might as well get his enemies high and murder them while they're in their drug-induced euphoria._
- Kay-Ren used to be a construction worker, she's got insane strength skills, which explains why she can tackle two people without breaking a sweat.
Her fam is currently missing. Upon first meeting, she and Lenna had a fight each other, and she _almost_ won. Kay would have squished dearest Lenna under a boulder if Mr. Lenna's dad hadn't interfered (that's good, otherwise we'd have no Lyner, and no Lyner means sadness). He managed to convince her to not kill his daughter and instead work for them, thus becoming Lenna's first servant.
- Mir is Lyner's partner. Initially, he tried to assassinate Lyner (because of his mom) and start an uprising against his family, but eventually they fall in love because Lyner is one adorable bean. Also, they have unique bedroom activities which we will _not_ get into.
- Jet is... Jet. I didn't get much info on him, but I guess he cooks food and drinks alcohol. (Update: alright, so he used to be in the mafia, really messed up big-time by making leader's daughter pregnant and gets imprisoned. Lenna gets him out, and in exchange for his services, he asks her to destroy his planet, which is why he feels guilty and likes drinking to wash away the depression brought by requesting an inhuman creature to destroy your home planet. Fun stuff.)
- Lyner is the son of Lenna. Why is he not like his murderer of a mother who goes around slaughtering innocents in the name of peace?
(Look, I'm just mad she had to make Nyx go evil, like what's a herb planet gonna do? Drug everyone up and then slaughter them--- hey, hey wait a minute...)
That's cause she's usually away where her duty calls her, and he spent a lot of time with his wonderful father, Hansel, who taught him the wonders of kindness, which is why Mir fell in love with him. Instead of finding a mini Lenna, he finds a sweet boy who did nothing wrong.
- The people we see in Lyner's vision is his family: Lenna (or Lena, the older posts spelled it that way), aka lady with the wings, Hansel, aka man with horns, and his sister is Aggie, aka the younger girl with the horns.
- The pendant is a family heirloom in Lyner's family, and it's passed down on their child. It has to be given to them right after their born though, otherwise it doesn't work. It's usually given to the firstborn child.
The pendant grants its wearer immortality, immunity, super strength, and cosmic power.
There are only two pendants. Their origins are unknown to Lyner.
If you take the pendant away from the wearer, it will lose all senses and control, and it will do everything to get a replacement. If it doesn't get one, it will disintegrate and die.
- In Lenna's defense, she only wants peace in the universe and she has to do unsavoury things to get there, but eh, I'm still mad at her.
So yeah. I've only seen this animatic today... and I've rewatched it for more than I'd like to admit. The characters are cute as heck (Lyner screams in a distance), and the story's got me intrigued.
All info comes from Lazy Eule's Tumblr, if I'm wrong at some parts, feel free to correct me. This animatic is gonna blow up. Anyways, wow, this was fun.
Thanks for making this, Lazy!
Edit: _now here's more character intros and my theories in case you want to explore more of this lovely stuff, it's very, and I mean very lengthy tho, and if you read the top, you have your basics covered already_
- Mr. Lenna's Dad was the previous holder of Lyner's pendant. He has to be pretty persuasive to talk down a strong, angry 'about-to-murder-someone' midget.
Mr. Lenna's Dad was an intimidating ruler, and that's where Lenna follows, although she's softened up a bit because of Hansel.
Notice the past tense? Yeah, Mr. Lenna's Dad is dead.
'How can you know, stranger?' you may ask, and let me tell you why.
Remember the rule with the pendants? Yeah. I wanted to tell you not to worry, and that he probably died of natural causes because I didn't want to peg Lenna to be as heartless enough to forcefully take the pendant from her old pops and watch him disintegrate.
And I realized.
Pendant grants immortality.
Whoopsies.
So... you can just imagine what happens behind the scenes... I imagine Lenna just going to her father like, "I'm sorry dad, I love you and all, but I'm gonna give birth to my firstborn child, and he'll be needing that," and then proceeds to yank the pendant out.
- And here's where my guesswork comes in based off snippets I know.
Lenna's still kicking and alive somewhere. Nyx doesn't want her to be alive, but what can he do? She has a freaky pendant that makes her unkillable and unstoppable. There's only two pendants in the whole universe, one's with Lenna and the other's with...
Her son.
So sneaky little Nyx hatched a plan to garner the attention of Lyner and Co., Nothing too big, otherwise Mother would come. No, he only needed Lyner's pendant. Plus, it's easier for him to take a pendant from less experienced Lyner compared to Mrs. Pacifistic Murderer.
I'm not too sure if he knows how the whole transferring of pendant works, but if he does know, then I can assume his plan goes somewhere along the lines of:
a) forcibly take Lyner's pendant, hope Lyner doesn't kill him in the process, escape, and relish in Lenna's grief as he takes away her only son
_Or._
b) drug up Lyner, make _Lyner_ fight against his mother, which will be harder for Lenna since it's her own son she's fighting, so she'll hold back more, increasing drugged Lyner's chance of winning. If Lyner wins, then great! If Lenna wins, then he should start digging his own grave. However, even if they both die in the process (which I doubt, it's not gonna be _that_ kind of story), it's all great for Nyx cause he killed two birds with one stone.
Plan b didn't work out as well as he thought because Lyner brought his friends, and as we all know, the power of friendship saves the day.
If Nyx is smart, he would have had a backup plan besides 'smoking and making people dance'. Either he escapes, or Lyner manages to capture him, and they win.
Since he had Kay-Ren under his mind magic, he can hold her hostage in order to make Lyner cooperate, yada-yada, you know how it goes.
- On that note! I also have another theory. It sounds far-fetched but hear me out.
You see the thing that killed Mir and Lyner's family in Lyner's nightmare? I think that's some juicy foreshadowing.
If you pause at the right moments when monster big mouth comes up, you can notice a few striking details such as:
The monster's ears. It has that unique design I've only ever seen in Lyner's family. So, we've established that monster is his relative (of course, it can be "just a coincidence", but it seems very unlikely that this slipped Lazy's attention).
Also, notice the collar. That's where they always put the pendant (see: Mr. Lenna's Dad, Lenna, and Lyner). Monster is glowing the same glow as pendant, but has no pendant. You can see that the tie is undone, no glowing stone, and monster is looking unhinged.
I tried counting the corpses by the monster's feet but it's hard to tell if there really are three corpses or two.
Anyways, it's possible that Lenna loses her pendant (probably due to Nyx), goes crazy, and it's a battle between Lyner and his mom, kind of like my other idea, only this time, the other way around.
It's also possible that Lenna dies, someone else gets her pendant, but that doesn't make sense if you have to take into account that the pendant can only be transferred at birth, unless Lenna's been missing for an extremely long amount of time (and I doubt that since Aggie's young, and monster looks considerably older).
My problem with "Lenna is monster in Lyner's vision" is that the monster isn't wearing what Lenna wears, and Lazy's depiction of a crazy ex-pendant holder is more uncontrollable tentacle teethy (... you get what I mean) and less smug smile, "hi there, I killed your loved ones, now it's your turn to die."
Maybe the "someone got Lenna's pendant" theory works if we see another character with those defining Voxelle ears, and if they found a way through the "must be transferred at birth" issue (doesn't explain the loose collar but my brain is running on coffee fumes, and I need sleep, but I procrastinated, so here I am).
Edit: It just occurred to me that it is possible that another pendant-wielder could exist in the universe, after all it is a big place. Whose to say there aren't any other pendants? All we have is info _from_ Lyner's family. Maybe a Voxelle, but distantly related from Lyner's family. It would make sense with these inconsistencies. About the corpses, if we're being considerate with the shapes, I guess we can count the the 'flat pointy thing' as Lenna.
Note that none of these are confirmed. I'm just guessing how things turn out, and this is becoming more of a ramble than anything.

Dug a little deeper into these characters and I love how Nyx isn't a one-dimensional bad guy but instead has a sympathetic backstory
@Rain Coat The black eyed boy(Lyner)'s mom destroyed Nyx's planet, leaving him the only one who survived. So he wanted vengeance on Lenna. That's why he was mainly focused on Lyner and his amulet(which is a pretty powerful thing to be the holder of)

I love it when people will turn songs like this into something completely different from what it's originally supposed to be. I used to listen to this song and feel hyped and excited, but now that I've seen this, I can only see it as a villain trying to trap the protagonist in a world of happiness, only to use it againsy them by tearing it all down. But the part that really got me is when he sings, "Impossible's coming true, it's intoxicating you." And he's literally blowing smoke at everyone, intoxicating them into an illusion.
All I'm trying to say is I've watched this too many times now and everytime I rewatch it, I find something else to geek out about. Thank you, and enjoy the views.
aaaAAA same I cant stop watching it. IM SO IN LOVE WITH ALL OF THESe cHARACTERS

For a more coherent comment, I absolutely love how charismatic and charming this dude is. His dymanic with the other characters totally makes him really alluring to me. When he started making everyone dance, I thought: oh good god I'm falling for a fictional (villian?) again I need help
I second that one. Nyx brings out a version of me that a seldom see. It’s just, wow. He’s just so...wow. I honestly am just...yeah I’m pretty sure im also in love with a fictional antagonist. At least Nyx is an antagonist in this scene.

I know this animation was meant to be serious and actually show some conflict with the characters but my god each of Nyx dance moves where so passionate and attractive. I seriously love this character, his design is perfect. Like if I were a villain I’d want that dudes energy.
There's only one thing wrong with this animatic:
The villain is *WAY* too hot.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I love how Nyx doesn’t seem genuinely evil- he looks so, calm when he’s dancing and doing all this. And obviously seems to show little care for our main protagonists, only for Lyner because of his bitterness towards Lyners mom, and even as he’s ‘defeated’ he just seems very relaxed yet stern. You can tell he has an artistic and more enthusiastic side, but has lost so much he doesn’t even care about anything else except getting revenge. Yet it’s not grim of him too either- maybe I’m looking way into this- either way he’s kinda hot 😍
frrr
He inspired me to create my own OC who’s an entity that embodies Madness and they’re Pangender.
Gives me so much fanfic ideas

it’s my fav
cami_wul-chan I fell in love with it at thats moment.
The fact that this guys whole deal is like, I'm such a hipster that my vape makes people literally crazy, is so cool and I love it so much.
Here's my little theory on the figure in Lyner's hallucination;
I think the smoke at first is showing him is deepest desire. His family is happy and together, and Mir and himself being hopelessly in love with each other. (I'm kinda wondering whether Lenna knows about the relationship and how she feels about it).
Then the smoke starts showing him his deepest fear. Sort of like a trip gone bad... He sees his father, sister, and Mir dead. Murdered. And the killer?
A combination of Lenna and himself! More accurately what he's afraid that he could become. I'm not sure whether it's because he's afraid to become a ruthless killer like his mother / what could happend if he doesn't learn to control his powers / or if he loses his pendant. Notice how his mother isn't lying dead with the others.
I also noticed that the clothing the figure is wearing is very similar to Lyner's own in the video. He's wearing black pants, a fully bottomed shirt and his pendant with two black ribbons.
The figure is wearing black pants, a shirt, and not to mention that the figure seems to be the same specie as Lyner (see the ears) and their hair have part in the same place (and the same part as Lenna). The shirt is more open than Lyner's and the pendant is missing and it seems like there used to be something around the figure's neck (the ribbon hanging loosely around their neck), so that might tie in to the theory that he's afraid to lose the pendant and what would happen if he did.
I mean think about it for a bit... Lyner's a kind hearted, gentle pacifist with the power to destroy worlds if he so wishes. A power that he doesn't have complete control over or completely understands. That has to terrifying. And seeing as Lyner is described as an over thinker, it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that he would worry about something like that.
On another note:
Holy cow I loved every second of this and I am now following on UA-cam, Instagram & Tumblr and can't wait to learn more about this world or the characters in it!
The art style is amazing and the characters are super likeable 😍
Add on there were four bodys so his mother was included in the death count. He is deffo afraid of loosing his pendant and going on a rampage killing everything in his path.
Sana all
I think that actually now that Ihave some context from comments on other videos but not from social media cuz i have none, I think that figure might be what Lyner fears of becoming (again) because of the video that was out last night the Wolf one, and I think that actually Lyner fears becoming a monster like that again, or going rogue or becoming like his mother. This is probably confusing I hope it’s not but- idk, this is only what I know from only YT, the comments, and teh barely little knowledge I got from the videos and yeah.
0:58 shows such an incredible example of still drawings creating realistic motion. Seriously incredible
lyner had me throwing a fit like....who gave that child the right to be so fekkin wholesome. i love him. precious bb. he deserves love. they all do in their own lil special way.
Let me try and see what's going on-
Fancy man has been introduced, he has the power to make people high and control them. He manages to make one of the group members high. Our member goes and dances with Fancy man. It then happens to our other buddy, long hair and then glasses boi. Everything turns into a magical ballroom.
Little baby is confused, why are people being possessed and why are they dancing?
Little baby finds Long Hair and takes him back to reality. They find glasses boi and do the same. They look at their best friend who's dancing with Fancy man. Glasses Boi is the most mortified, he loves our friend. Fancy man makes their friend highx2, causing him to see perfect things, like his lover, Glasses Boi.
Then he starts seeing strange and bad things. Then he is saved by glasses boi. They love. Little baby tackles Fancy man, who is angry. He then gets his army of possessed people to defeat our group.
Edit: I'm sorry- I know there are names for these characters but I can't help but call Fancy man, Fancy man.
mickey That is the best description for this 😂
The names are in the description 😂
But still love those names you created
I think sharp tooth dude’s mum or something did something to fancy guy, and now he’s trying to get revenge? He looks hella pissed when sharpy tooth reminds him of her, soo...also monster in hallucinations might be symbolic of how he views whoever that (brother??cousin??) guy was or might be.
Or he might have literally become a mcfricking monster or something idk mate
@Pizza Baker mhmmm at the end, yeah
"glasses boi is the most mortified, he loves our friend" phat uwu energy :((
Lyner: ima have to ask you to respect the 6 foot rule
Nyx: nah
Is that...a Hazbin Hotel reference from Alastor?....
After seeing Nyx's background, it can be confirmed that villains are just people who weren't saved. Nyx isn't really in the wrong for wanting to take revenge on Lenna, and of course, he's warped after what he's been through.

idk who these guys are and idk what's going on BUT HOLY CRAP did I love this!
Not gonna lie, I thought Lyner was Nyx's kid and that's why he was so focused on him, and looked so happy to be dancing with him; and why he wanted to keep Lyner under the influence. Then I saw Nyx's background vid. This is absolutely fantastic, you've done such a wonderful job with the animation and your characters are brilliant!

C B animatic means a rough unfinished animation
Tiny The Weirdo I think what this person meant to say is that most animatics out there are literally just pictures with slight movement, often use tweeking, and not that many frames (somewhat like a storyboard). This person is just surprised that there is at least some rough animation mixed into it (which is an actual animatic).
@@nyellieellie5769 Oh, I hope they mean that- A lot of people think that what you described is actually an animatic, so idk if they do or dont
Tiny The Weirdo Ahah. The term animatic has been gotten lose and lost its actual meaning due to UA-cam. Animatics with little animation and is just frames timed well with the music is close to storyboard rather than an animatic. An animatic is rough animation or incomplete animation, which is this video.
This is absolutely gorgeous! Your OCs are adorable and your animation is??? do smooth??? I am so interested in their story :0!!
Shoutout to everyone else who watches these animatics at least 3 times a day
I can’t accurately explain in words how this animatic makes me feel. Maybe it’s Brendon Urie’s melodious voice, or maybe it’s the characters, or their situation, or a mixture of all. Now, I have never seen these characters before today, I have never had the chance to stumble across this channel, and I have no idea what’s happening (I have a little bit of background now thanks to ‘I See’s comment) but I can wholeheartedly say that I am in love. I absolutely adore this video and I just watched it for the first time EVER just a few minutes ago. I can’t explain why I feel this way, haha, but I have accepted that I love this masterpiece. Thank you, dear creator, for sharing your beautiful characters. This animatic makes me so happy.
THIS IS WHY THIS SLY VOICE WAS FAMILIAR ToT This bish damnit him again...
And i gotta agree this is a mix of his voice and the art and the character's personnality ~^~
Me: has never met any of these characters before
Me: tell me more
I can't relate more
Bruh same though and even though it got spoon fed to me in still kinda confused
I watching this, I'm enjoying this, but I DON'T KNOW THIS PEOPLE!!!
@@annafrederick4375 same but the pinned comment helped
Same XD
so I've watched this animatic like 15 times? maybe 25? the expressions, the characters, and animatic in general is just so good, also the plot keeps me coming back (by plot I mean Nyx)
Ok but like, clearly the guy singing is some sort of “bad guy”, but he is immediately my favorite out of all the characters... why do I always like the “villain” character?
Because poimpty teef 😳
because
*its brendon urie*
Cause he’s hot
Cause they're usually the most attractive
The funny thing is, it’s not that he’s attractive, I just... like his character, I guess 🤷🏻♀️
I like how when he first comes out, they all cringe like “Is he really singing?”
1:34 Mir: Why he touching my man? Where he going with my man? *pulls out knife*
NYX better run
50 Percent Off reference
*Nice*
Nir's partner is a gurl- but don't worry i thought she was a boy to
Mir* god my auto correct be mean
@@A1D34GAST3 Lyner is actually a boy
I love the very short story told in just this song. And I love that all the villain’s plans got wrecked simply because “smoke rises, I’m short, and you were stupid enough to underestimate me.” I was cheering that little guy on throughout the whole piece, and then they’re the one taken over at the end? Brilliant!
The second I saw Nyx wearing heels I was caught off guard my bisexual heart can't-
I love this so much
0:26 those heels tho
Imagine escaping death by being too small for the Grim Reaper to see.
I want to acknowledge the amazingly dark and put together backstory and story writing but...
YOU HAD NO RIGHT MAKING NYX THAT HOT.
AGREED
My one question is how did nyx NOT break his ankles,like, look at his heels
EDIT: holy- this is the most likes i've gotten thats very cash money
Yeah I cant even walk with slight heels on my shoes without twisting my ankle. Im really clumsy though so that doesnt help.
Cut to me with rubber ankles* *hehe funny*
he is a villain that's why
magic
He's flamboyant
Earth: CORONAVIRUS!*PANIC*
God: -This is the greatest show!
To be fair, 2020 is a great year if you wanna made a dystopian movie.
@@Fisinocean true
I like Nyx, he’s an interesting character and I like the art style too! Everyone has their own fun little features that sets them apart.
I am obsessed with the animation during "And all that was real is left behind"? The transition from the lip-sync with prominent teeth lines to the face is reminding me sm of some style choices I've seen and loved in the past. Just love me a very tired, feral look.
Me:
my mom: stop trying to convince me to take you to see hamiltion.
Me: ThIs Is ThE gReAtIsT sHoW
Mmm sounds like me
This song isn't from Hamilton really :v
@@cherryjelly8494 ...It was a joke. Like a meme.
I'll take you to hamilton
It is tho
I’m not lying when I say, I have watched this 14 times, and it hasn’t gotten old. I deeply look forward to another animatic if you make on. The characters all catch my eye and the whole idea and how you portray it is just- amazing. This is my new favorite animatic on youtube
oh my god I don't even know where to begin here. The character design??? the choreography???? the fluid motion???? honestly this is stellar and I can't wait to see more from you, what an amazing gift you've given us!!
Nyx: **blows some magic love smoke**
Kay-ren: *oops ya missed one*
What I got out of this: Short people have benefits
I was literally so invested throughtout the enitre thing I forgot I where I was for a second like- woAH
I guess the smoke is working~
HOLLY CRAP THIS IS AMAZING
YOU NEED TO MAKE A FULL ON SERIES OF THIS
I like this
YES, PLEASE.
Little Teddy uwu YESH
Man... making a "The Greatest show" sound villain - it's just genius. And the artwork is amazing. I love it!
Is it bad that I like the guy that mindcontrols?
(Villains are weirdly fascinating to me lol.)
His names Nyx and he has a pretty sad life which just makes it better he is *defiantly* ! a villain to be loved
nope
*s a m e*
Read more comments honey, everyone down here has a crush on Nyx
Omfg I just love how this came out
Like
The music is just fitting so much
The smile
The plot
Characters
BEST THING IVE EVER SEEN :0
1:54 that face- it's so pure.
I know I'm late for this but
1. Your art style is phenomenal
2. The grasp you have on anatomy, perspective, and expression is just w o a h
3. The story-line, characters, and background added together (plus the music) all make every one of your videos atmospheric and immersive in a way that has made me (personally) re-watch your videos on a nearly daily basis, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who does that
4. Hope you have a good day, and stay safe
Holy crap please do more on these characters! I’m now emotionally invested!
I've watched this almost 10 times now and I am addicted
* inhale *
* exhale *
*SO*
i may or may not have watched this everyday for 2 weeks for 10 times, *but* heres the thing. This vid is literal perfection in everyway. It is an animatic, not mv which i appreciate so much. Every part of this has perfect timing to song, and by that i not only mean certain tics, also the emotion which that timing gives me. its beautiful. The style is ofc beautiful, everyone knows. Drawings even tho we can see theyre not polished in every way (i think) still looks clean and very nice. And just in one (beautiful that always give me feels) song you showed one chapter/arc/story and that is beautiful. i would tell specifically where i get feels and goose bumbs, but i dont think u want to read a 3 pages esay. When i first watched this i literally couldnt breathe and belive i saw what i saw.
so yeah, thank you for coming to my ted talk, this was beautiful, ty for doing what u do
Bro this deserves more likes- you pretty much summed up all the emotions you get when watching this.
It’s cool to see I wasn’t the only one left speechless ^^
I cannot express how much I love how the hair animated
