I useda read Lackadaisy when it was new, followed it for years, then I just sorta gradually forgot about it as I drifted onto other things I guess. Seeing this pop up in my feed was an absolute nostalgia bomb, wrapped in the promise of something amazing to look forward to. This is making my day.
I couldn't sleep, watched saberspark's video about lackadaisy, watched the pilot, found this, played it on loop and read the comics. Then I fell asleep and fell onto a book. I cant wait for more lackadaisy!

This animation is flawless. Not only is this loop smooth as silk - Not only is every element of this art in constant motion - Not only is this dance step kicking hard to that beat - Not only is this cat girl clearly living her best life in the moment... On top of all of that, every single frame of this animation is a work of art. Pause at any moment and you'll see some new detail. This is high art.
I love how they keep us entertained while we wait for the actual thing to come out. As a Helluva boss and Hazbin Hotel fan, I'm kind of used to waiting these things out, but this is a hella lot better.
I'm impressed with how Ivy seems to always be dancing in perfect time with the music the whole time! Despite the animation being in a loop, it never appears to come out of sync. How??? Fantastic work!
My only guess is that swing is a timed dance with timed music. (Think box step 1 2 3 4) it’s just faster paced. This means that in theory a perfect dancer who is just doing one section of the dance, in this case the bit where you step away from your partner would look like a perfect loop.

Can't...stop...watching...dancing cat. Must support Lackadaisy...must immediately buy all available merchandise...all must obey our dancing cat overlord...
after watching ivy dance on repeat, I noticed that her foot work along with her dance animation was in tune with the rhythm of the first song whilst mostly in tune with the second, in other words: she is (almost) dancing exactly on each beat of each song. which is insanely impressive, especially since she was dancing for a straight 12 minutes!
... just kinda thinking to an elderly cat-lady in the 1970s. watching the snow falling from her Chicago apartment, playing an old record on her doily-covered console system, and looking at an old picture of her tomcat while remembering her youth...
It's so amazing how I remember being a child and stumbling upon this comic for the first time on Deviantart. I'm so thrilled at how far it's come! I can't wait for the movie!
This damn danceloop and music is living rent free in my head. I am driving. Pah pah pah pappadappa I am working. Pah pah pah pappadappa I am trying to focus. Pahpah pah pappadappa
I love that her eyes are essentially showcasing when she moves forward and backwards. It conveys the energy she has when she moves, she has them open when she wants to move forward; like she's excited about world in front of her... and when she needs to move further back the stage she closes her eyes. As if to try and restrain herself from absolutely losing herself in the atmosphere that is set up for her. The animation is smooth by the way. I love it
I will be honest here - I am NOT a cat person at all. BUT .. I really just love Lackadaisy! I think part of it is the art style and part of it is the historical aspect.
If there's anything I love nothing more than listening to electro swings, and dancing to it. The cat that was animated here exactly captures the wonderful feeling.
Yeah Hollywood should hear about this and have it published in Warner Bros. studio right now because I bet this will become the worlds 🌎 1#☝️ animation movie 🎥🎞 and animation TV 📺 series in history 👍🏿;)
This was the first lackadaisy-related thing I ever saw. Now that the pilot is out I can’t help but look back at it and see how impressive this whole thing is.
Amazing! The dancing kitty stole the hearts of people who were just going to listen to music. Excellent animation! *Electro swing is also good, but not so much as kitty.

and is anyone else hyped for Lackadaisy season 1?
@@ALPALGaming4Ever I am.
@@ALPALGaming4Everthis is a silly question, we should all know this answer

My favourite swingin' cat Ivy doing the charleston! Best Christmas gift ever
As long as she doesn't make like King Neptune did with Felix and explode. (Unless I remember wrong)
Would be even better if she was dancing to Alistor's version of "Good Golly". If someone hasn't done that already they should. O.o
Yeah this animation video of cat 🐱 Ivy dancing 💃 is truly wonderful lovely 🥰 and marvelous and she looks even beautiful 😻 in that dress 👗 of hers

Ivy was always my favourite cat. I loved her friendship with Viktor. I even named my RL cat 'Ivy' after her.
That’s so sweet of you to name your cat after her! She’s my favorite too ☺️
My favourite too, if I ever get a female cat I'm naming it Ivy
Named my cat with a scarred eye Viktor after the character. A big cuddle bug.
@@FantomBlaze aww, that's adorable
The creator actually has a cat named ivy she named her character after her
I discovered this video like a week ago, and it has been my main source of background music since, I don't even watch the animation anymore. I could find the songs on their own, or listen to a playlist, but no, I just watch this vid like 40 times.
On an unrelated note, I didn't know that Lackadaisy existed before this was recommended to me, and within 20 minutes I had already gotten excited for the film.
it has done its job :3

Because it does.
Loop it

Noooo we don't need that😅
Maybe it's just the animation being so well done
Since Ivy is 18, and the comic takes place in 1927, does that mean she has been working on the Little Daisy Cafe since she was 13?
She was raised there so I would assume she help when she was probably even younger
Yep. Basically born and raised Lackadaisy Flapper/gangster.
@@litepaw7makes sense, given some of her comic strips make her out to be no shrinking violet, she'll grab a shotgun barrel in a fight or beat the hell outta rocky with no qualms
Probably
It's in the comic, she was raised at little daisy cafe since they have great relations with their family, but I ain't going to spoil much, I just read the comic last night, and I'm half-way through finishing it to the latest

I always knew I loved this type of music but never knew the name Electroswing until now. Finally I can search for it properly and expand my collection considerably. And on top of it all there's an amazing loop of a kitty just having the time of her life to go with it. This day couldn't have gone any better
I remember when I first discovered the term electroswing and I'm happy you have too
Welcome to the club! I hope you've enjoyed the new tracks.
i got here from the A Hat In Time track "Trainwreck of Electro Swing" somehow! so happy to be here
im back bc of the pilot :)

Nothing can describe how much I love this. It's just it is. I just randomly found this while listening to electro swing while doing school work and I am glad I did. This is just lovely!

Have you watched the Lackadaisy pilot episode yet? If not, you should.
I have some good news for you! It's a webcomic that has been going strong for years, and has an animated pilot out.
Welcome to Lackadaisy Cats speakeasy!
@@pauliusjokimas1639 Is your confusion because I put the "It's lovely" at the end. I'm American I just couldn't think of any other way to describe it. Still can't
@@Montymania94 I found out that is was a web comic after I saw this. I'm not really a big fan of web comics, just have had some not so great experiences with them so I'm just going to watch the series as it comes out. It does seem like a interesting comic series and I LOVED the pilot honestly can't wait for more!
Glad to be part of it!
this is a certified *hood classic*
also, props to ivy for doing the damn charleston for *12 minutes*
she has now done for 1 day straight due to me looping it
I useda read Lackadaisy when it was new, followed it for years, then I just sorta gradually forgot about it as I drifted onto other things I guess.
Seeing this pop up in my feed was an absolute nostalgia bomb, wrapped in the promise of something amazing to look forward to. This is making my day.

Read all I could over last week, after watching the pilot. Really captures the imagination.
First I have to say.. Amazing animation..
Second..
Just realized... Her feet hit the ground in TIME with the music.
Specifically the piano.
that's what you call rhytmic dancing
The Charleston is danced such that you step to the beat of the music. It is intentional.
usually how dancing works XD
Yeah Hollywood should hear about this 👍🏿;)
@@sethiddings7293 Nah but y'all don't understand how hard that is to animate
I couldn't sleep, watched saberspark's video about lackadaisy, watched the pilot, found this, played it on loop and read the comics. Then I fell asleep and fell onto a book. I cant wait for more lackadaisy!
Hate to do this, but whenever I comment anywhere I get exactly 8 likes, or only 1 like. I wonder why.
For the first time I got more than 8 likes. Huh.
How long does it take to read the comics how much is there
When I hear the word lackadaisy, I immediately think of this video. The word just seems so fitting.
Lack-a-daisy..
And it rolls right off the tongue!
Back from watching the pilot because Lackadiasy is 100% intertwined with Electro Swing. Also this animation is so cute!!
Who needs a yule log video when you can have Ivy doing the Charleston?
don't you dare give us ideas...
@@LackadaisyComic do you have a version of this video with just the first song? I cant find the full song anywhere else on UA-cam and would just like a video with just that first song.
They. Did. NOT. Need. To. Go. This. Hard. Holy fetch, this is as smooth as butter and then some. Absolutely slaps. They made my second least favorite decade of the last century feel like it should be much higher up.

A reminder: A lot of our great-grandparents were hip, swinging cats.
My great-grandfather was a roving mystery man we don't know anything about, except that he liked his women. Was in Europe, got a Scottish woman pregnant with my grandfather. Also got an Italian woman pregnant. Fought in WW2, got a Japanese woman pregnant after the war ended. And that's all the ones *we know about.*
If somebody told me that mother-fucker was a fairy, I'd half believe them.
@@patrickfrost9405 That's pretty good. My great grandpa (still alive) grew up dirt poor, so poor in fact that as an early teenager he would hunt to keep food on the table. He was in the military as an unarmed instructor, but the best story about his time in the service is that he would play ping-pong and people would bet on him, and every time he won, he would take a cut of the cash and send his army check home to his wife.
@@patrickfrost9405 A fairy? Preposterous! Clearly the only real answer here is that your great-grandfather was Odin and/or Zeus.
@@enigmaodell6806 that's cool, my grandpa grew up on a farm and he loved airplanes. I remember him telling me that he didn't like chickens because the chickens on his farm used to always peck him (he still had the scars on his arms if i recall correctly) unfortunately that's all i really know about him; he died before i could really get to know him well, my mom says that he and i are the kindest people she's ever known
Ha you said a slang, cats🤣
She is so cute! :)
Yeah she looks totally lovely 🥰 in that dress 👗 of hers as well as she’s A wonderful dancer 💃
This would certainly be a good loading screen for a videogame.
Be nice if they made a Lackadaisy video game.
This animation is flawless. Not only is this loop smooth as silk - Not only is every element of this art in constant motion - Not only is this dance step kicking hard to that beat - Not only is this cat girl clearly living her best life in the moment...
On top of all of that, every single frame of this animation is a work of art. Pause at any moment and you'll see some new detail.
This is high art.

Yea same.
This is my second time siting here for 12minits
I'm impressed with how Ivy seems to always be dancing in perfect time with the music the whole time! Despite the animation being in a loop, it never appears to come out of sync. How???
Fantastic work!
My only guess is that swing is a timed dance with timed music. (Think box step 1 2 3 4) it’s just faster paced. This means that in theory a perfect dancer who is just doing one section of the dance, in this case the bit where you step away from your partner would look like a perfect loop.

The transitions between songs have to be perfectly timed to allow this to work.
its massively out of sync at multiple points of the video, but its just a bit of fun anyway

The Charleston was a joy to learn. I am so glad I can just immediately break it out as soon as a song with swing-ish rhythms come on.

Ivy is so darn cute. Especially when she's dancing.
She’s such a pretty little kitty. 😻
after watching ivy dance on repeat, I noticed that her foot work along with her dance animation was in tune with the rhythm of the first song whilst mostly in tune with the second, in other words: she is (almost) dancing exactly on each beat of each song. which is insanely impressive, especially since she was dancing for a straight 12 minutes!
... just kinda thinking to an elderly cat-lady in the 1970s. watching the snow falling from her Chicago apartment, playing an old record on her doily-covered console system, and looking at an old picture of her tomcat while remembering her youth...
Thanks, this put a nice big smile on my face today.

Can we all just appreciate how much soul is in the animation! ❤️
Fr💀💀
Soul? I thought it was jazz
I love that her eyes are essentially showcasing when she moves forward and backwards. It conveys the energy she has when she moves, she has them open when she wants to move forward; like she's excited about world in front of her... and when she needs to move further back the stage she closes her eyes. As if to try and restrain herself from absolutely losing herself in the atmosphere that is set up for her.
The animation is smooth by the way. I love it
