Well, there is going to be a new show now. Though apparently its going to mainly focus on a different Slayer. We'll see how that goes. Animation would be the easiest way to bring all the old cast back though, I'd think.
Then again all the action and drama from the original buff could be toned down and the drama and corny humour will be watered down as well if this is truly happening
The fact that so many people think that this is from the actual scrapped cartoon is testament to how awesome this is. Fair fucking play, Stephen Byrne. Subscribed.
I love how they added Amber benson to this video. That proves how much the fans loved her and still do. If they ever make a movie they need to bring back Tara And Anya and all the original cast
Love how each of the seven frames in the hallway was that seasons villain. This is deffo one of those things I had to pause so often to get all the in-gags. Well done sir!
This made me so happy! The Cabin in the Woods poster, all the Big Bad portraits, the world of shrimp, Willow's hair, the one-off characters from the show and from the comics. Buffy in the Deeper Well. Oz shifting. Anya and Tara returning. Puppet!Angel for some reason. Tiny!Buffy and a dragon like in the cartoon (or like Cordelia from "After the Fall"). And all the little things floating around Willow! Olaf's hammer, a bunny, Miss Edith, the Gentlemen's box, Mr. Gordo, the Gem of Amara, the Bezoar egg, Amy. Basically understand that I want to appreciate everything about this. And the song is even catchier than ever. It's all so great!
My mom watched Buffy a lot before I was born and it was still on tv. Then she stopped when she got pregnant. When I was twelve I discovered Buffy and was hooked. I finally have a nerd topic to fan girl over with my mom... and she spoiled it for me...
Stiles Grace That is literally exactly what happened to me and my mom!! :0 Aside from the spoiling part. My mom stopped watching while she was pregnant and I watched the show at the age of twelve, wow!!
I'm a huge fan of the show and still am. I would love to geek out with anyone who has recently discovered it and could share various things with you. For example, I wrote a song for Willow since she didn't have one in the musical episode, and my one piece of Buffy fanfiction is also focused on Willow. Yeah, Willow was my favorite character, but I just loved the show in general and can bring a lot of insight to it for veterans and newbies alike.
I'm thirteen saw buffy on Amazon Prime for free- Gosh I love that show. SO much better than Twilight in my opinion! Though I'm in the minority here- many kids my age are like, "buffy? What's buffy??" But when I mention Twilight EVERYBODY knows :( Honestly this is one of the best animated things i have EVER seen. If anybody made a TV show off this- I'd pay to see it!! Seeing Anya and Tara as ghosts made me really sad :(
+MahoGats TFM So much better than Twilight ??? I lived my teenage years during the Twilight-craze and I envy everyone that grew up with Buffy instead of OMG VAMPIRE ARE SO SEXY, THEY SPARKLES (WTF !!!!).
ArthasTheCoward I KNOW RIGHT? SPIKE AND ANGEL ARE THE ORIGINAL SEXY VAMPIRES NOT THESE CHEAP SPARKLES THESE ARE JUST BUBBLE VAMPIRES THAT DESERVE TO BE POPPED
Both this and the Doctor Who/Gravity Falls animated video are FUCKING AWESOME!!! FYI, Sarah Michelle Gellar posted a link to this vid on Twitter. So this video is both Slayer Approved and Blockbuster Buster Approved!
@@Monikainlove I believe it's in season 10 of the Buffy comics. You may be able to find them in the store (a comic or used book store), but you'll find them online for sure.
Just discovered your animated Firefly video! Brought tears to my eyes. And now this?! My favorite show Buffy :3 yet more tears to my eyes. So beautiful! Lovely easter eggs, Xander playing with Serenity and the Cabin in the woods in the background! Genius.
Amazing! I love how you incorporated things from both the show and the comics. Plus all of the little stuff, like Iron Man, Serenity, Cabin in the Woods and Wonder Woman references.
Well if you look closely at her, you can see a bloody slash across her torso. Joyce wouldn't have that. Besides, both Tara and Anya had violent deaths and wouldn't be at peace and more likely to pop up like that. Joyce on the other hand died of an aneurysm and would be.
I love how Xander has Whedon stuff in his room! A "Cabin in the Woods" poster, Cap and Iron Man toys, and a model Serenity! So much detail went into this! Why is it not a webseries!? lol Hell, just go by the current comic storylines that continue the show! ;)
This is one of the best things I've ever seen. I love Willow snapping her fingers to change hair color with the Wonder Woman poster in the background. SO MANY GREAT THINGS!
Stephen, this is totally and utterly awesome, and I adore it to bits! I've seen some of your Buffy artwork before - a Halloween scene. I love your style. This really fun - love the Scoobies running past the big bads' portraits - and Puppet Angel! Willow is floating Miss Edith! Love the hair colour changes too. And all of Xander's Whedonverse/Marvel collectibles :-) Awesome
This is amazing. Like honestly, I keep rewatching it it's so good!!!! I love them running in the hallway next to the portraits of the big bads, and the Buffy separating Angel and Spike. This needs to be a thing!!!
Epic intro or the most epic intro in the history of the universe?! Seriously, I wish this was really a thing that happened. You made me incredibly happy and nostalgic at the same time.
Oh my god, this is the raddest animated fan video i have ever seen! WB needs to commission this guy for a series, and its not like the cast are doing anything else that they cant lend their voices! this is so cool!
I keep finding new throwbacks and homages every time I watch this amazing intro. The portraits of the Big Bads, Xander playing with Iron Man and Serenity, Puppet Angel running with the Scoobies. I love your attention to details.
This is pure magic! 😍 Thank you very much for this!!! So many nods to a lot of awesomeness. I love Sweet playing the guitar as Buffy dances, Puppet Angel, The World Of Nothing But Shrimp, Xander playing with Serenity... EVERYTHING IS PERFECT! You should be really proud of this 👌
No matter how many times I have seen it, if I am having a bad day or just need something to make me smile, I can always depend on this video! Thank you!!!
I like this intro and would be all for seeing it as a fully fledged series, especially as it has Tara back amongst the main characters as she was always my personal favourite.
Holy crap, every time I watch this I notice something new and awesome about it. Like the fact that you threw in Simone Doffler and a scene from the final arc of Season 9? You are made of 100% grade-A awesomesauce.
Amazing. If only the animated series was a quarter as well made and charming... Buffy even has her trademark halfsmile! The attention to Buffyfacts and details is wicked!
Oh, the memories... so overwhelming. This is one of the few shows on which I didn't fast forward the intro. I miss it, even though I finished binge watching it not two months ago.
I need this to be an actual thing. The world needs Buffy again.
YES!!

Yasss
Agreed
If you started a kickstarter to turn this into an actual cartoon, I would so be willing to donate. I'm totally serious.
I sure you not the only one :)
I would empty my whole bank account to make this a reality!!
I like the way you think :)
Netflix, make this happen, please.
LadyTaraJo me too!!
Netflix this NOW.

Yes, and she's a ghost! That's so sweet actually!
so great!
All the fandom have too unite again too make this real!!!
I mean I hope...
You're getting competition in the awesome animated videos Leigh...
You two should collab at some point.
jackyoh971 u know that if they make this into an animated show. They would have to take out the gay love thing, u know for the kids
Justin Sigler *"cough"* Legend of Korra *"cough"*
haha did anyone else notice the portraits of all the bad guys through that hall...and the muppet Angel?
I paused to see Puppet Angel, Oz, zserenity...
Not portrait, he was a member of the group walking along the portrait coridor
I don't know what you mean
Love how each of the seven frames in the hallway was that seasons villain. This is deffo one of those things I had to pause so often to get all the in-gags. Well done sir!
+MikesRambles Did you notice the Angel muppet too?
I did! Also reality of nothing but Shrimp!
And all the Joss Whedon references in Willow and Xander's rooms!
Its a literal Rogues Gallery.
This made me so happy!

Basically understand that I want to appreciate everything about this.
And the song is even catchier than ever.
It's all so great!
Ah, that moment where Buffy officially became a Disney princess. 😆
My mom watched Buffy a lot before I was born and it was still on tv. Then she stopped when she got pregnant. When I was twelve I discovered Buffy and was hooked. I finally have a nerd topic to fan girl over with my mom... and she spoiled it for me...
Wow, that's an amazing comment!

Well... Rest in peace every cool moment (or the one that makes you cry)
I love the part where they run past the portraits of 'The Big Bads'.
AMAZING! How I wish this was an actual trailer for a real Buffy cartoon.
Why isn't this a thing??! *cries*
I'm thirteen saw buffy on Amazon Prime for free-

Seeing Anya and Tara as ghosts made me really sad :(
That's just because of your age group when buffy was cancelled you would have been a baby...usually once people see it they love it
Jessica Lawson true-
god i wish it wasnt cancelled ;_;
MahoGats TFM it continued in comics that are really good
+MahoGats TFM So much better than Twilight ??? I lived my teenage years during the Twilight-craze and I envy everyone that grew up with Buffy instead of OMG VAMPIRE ARE SO SEXY, THEY SPARKLES (WTF !!!!).
ArthasTheCoward I KNOW RIGHT?
SPIKE AND ANGEL ARE THE ORIGINAL SEXY VAMPIRES
NOT THESE CHEAP SPARKLES
THESE ARE JUST BUBBLE VAMPIRES
THAT DESERVE TO BE POPPED
Both this and the Doctor Who/Gravity Falls animated video are FUCKING AWESOME!!!
FYI, Sarah Michelle Gellar posted a link to this vid on Twitter. So this video is both Slayer Approved and Blockbuster Buster Approved!
Came to see this because of your video on it, ERod. Thanks for spreading the word.
Don't say the F word
I love Tara, but Anya deserves to come back as a ghost more
Gamma Beta Alpha GBA Anya is a ghost in this, at :32 with a bloody slash across her torso.
Anya is also a ghost later in the comics. Read those!
Yeah but thus Anya ghost in comics isn't.. Ya know
@@alyssalandrith7232 where can I find the comics
@@Monikainlove I believe it's in season 10 of the Buffy comics. You may be able to find them in the store (a comic or used book store), but you'll find them online for sure.
YES! But this intro needed Cordelia!
Yup. Cordy definitely deserved better.
Cordy over Dawn and Tara for sure, though I do actually like both those characters
And anya
@@andrewthezeppo Dawn and Tara were extra characters that doesn't make any sense to the story XD.
@@ogr2 I have no idea what that is supposed to even mean

Amazing! I love how you incorporated things from both the show and the comics. Plus all of the little stuff, like Iron Man, Serenity, Cabin in the Woods and Wonder Woman references.
Buffy = Best Show EVERRRRRRRRRRRRR. Where the hell is Anya >.>
She's in a scene briefly between Xander and Willow, while Tara is between Willow and Dawn. 0:32 in.
METerrell omg ! i dont know how i could have missed that! omg ty >.
Willow Ma You're welcome.
METerrell Ugh, I thought that was Joyce!
Well if you look closely at her, you can see a bloody slash across her torso. Joyce wouldn't have that. Besides, both Tara and Anya had violent deaths and wouldn't be at peace and more likely to pop up like that. Joyce on the other hand died of an aneurysm and would be.

And an Astonishing X-Men poster :).
Every second of animation takes a lot of time of work. Thats why.
I'm sure this guy would do it but it would be fair to paying him for it.
I'm so happy for this! I adored the openning.I'll share it in all our pages. Please more Spike and Buffy kissage
This is one of the best things I've ever seen. I love Willow snapping her fingers to change hair color with the Wonder Woman poster in the background. SO MANY GREAT THINGS!
This is SO good! It was played at the Vampire Ball in the UK this past weekend. Emma & James were both there :)
I dont want a live action reboot with other actors. I WANT THIS. WHY WE CAN'T HAVE THIS IS BEYOND ME.
Man I've watched this like 15 times and I'm not getting tired of it. It just puts me in a good mood :)
Wow. I'd missed that Puppet Angel is with the group when they're going down the hallway with the pictures of each season's big bads.
This made me so happy. Thank you ! I so want this to be real.
Oh god, the things I would do to make this real. Horrible things.
i love the part where buffy kisses angel, then spike, and then spike and angel almost kiss eachother.
What an amazing cartoon this would make and loved the ghostly appearances of Anya and Tara.
Why isn’t this a real thing? It’s freaking awesome!
Can this happen? Please? God, I would watch the hell out of this.
This makes me absurdly happy. Especially the fact that Xander was playing with Stark, Cap, and Serenity toys.
i love all the detail in this. the portraits of the big bads in order of seasons. tarah and anya's wounds. willow's hair changes. so cute.
This was really cool. I'd love to see one for Angel
How I wish so much for a Buffy animated series. Love the video!
Props to you for making this, even if all it ever ends up being is this short title scene!
Still one of my favorite TH-cam videos ever
Stephen, this is totally and utterly awesome, and I adore it to bits!
I've seen some of your Buffy artwork before - a Halloween scene. I love your style.
This really fun - love the Scoobies running past the big bads' portraits - and Puppet Angel! Willow is floating Miss Edith! Love the hair colour changes too.
And all of Xander's Whedonverse/Marvel collectibles :-)
Awesome
Attention to detail in this is amazing. Love the corridor scene with all the big bads hanging up on the wall.
just wrote a short paper about this animation for my Whedon class. I really appreciate all the work put into this. Thank you for sharing!!!
Excellent work. The number of Easter Eggs is quite impressive, especially in Xander's room.
We need Buffy cartoon to happen. I am manifesting
Looks better than where the canonical comic's been going.
This is amazing. Like honestly, I keep rewatching it it's so good!!!! I love them running in the hallway next to the portraits of the big bads, and the Buffy separating Angel and Spike. This needs to be a thing!!!
THE WORLD FULL OF SHRIMP! I love the little references from the show that is subtly added into this intro! :D
This is so AMAZING! I wish we had a full season of this.
Seems I’m 7 years to late to see this video, BUT THE WORLD NEEDS BUFFY AGAIN!!!!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THIS A REALITY
so many easter eggs here :)
firefly,avengers,xmen gited,cabin in the woods,buffy season bosses enemies :)
Epic intro or the most epic intro in the history of the universe?!
Seriously, I wish this was really a thing that happened. You made me incredibly happy and nostalgic at the same time.
Oh my god, this is the raddest animated fan video i have ever seen! WB needs to commission this guy for a series, and its not like the cast are doing anything else that they cant lend their voices! this is so cool!
I love all the shrimp references!!
Great job on the illustrations and the intro sounds really good !!!! love it
I keep finding new throwbacks and homages every time I watch this amazing intro. The portraits of the Big Bads, Xander playing with Iron Man and Serenity, Puppet Angel running with the Scoobies. I love your attention to details.
So detailed that they forgot Sarah Michelle Gellar has green eyes, instead of blue.
I would watch the ever-loving fuck out of that 'toon.
Also: Xander playing with a toy Serenity? Genius!
I would watch the crap out of that!
Love it.
Thanks for making/sharing this with us.
Netflix needs to make this idea into a reality
i saw this shared on facebook today & you have no clue how excite it made me
This is pure magic! 😍
Thank you very much for this!!!
So many nods to a lot of awesomeness.
I love Sweet playing the guitar as Buffy dances, Puppet Angel, The World Of Nothing But Shrimp, Xander playing with Serenity... EVERYTHING IS PERFECT!
You should be really proud of this 👌
the attention to detail in this is amazzing!
I've always wanted to watch Buffy, but this makes me want to watch it even more now.
No matter how many times I have seen it, if I am having a bad day or just need something to make me smile, I can always depend on this video! Thank you!!!
This is the greatest thing I've seen this year.
Oh my god. This is seriously so perfect, I loved how it has so many details of the entire show. You are VERY talented!
I like this intro and would be all for seeing it as a fully fledged series, especially as it has Tara back amongst the main characters as she was always my personal favourite.
With this, the termn " Scooby gang" makes more even sense.
Love how you can see all of the Big Bads from from the show at around 20 secs in. I prefer the show's theme to this, but overall truly awesome. :D
You really nailed gilles' s look.
Holy crap, every time I watch this I notice something new and awesome about it. Like the fact that you threw in Simone Doffler and a scene from the final arc of Season 9? You are made of 100% grade-A awesomesauce.
I'd watch the hell out of this show (if it were real).
This is amazing! I had to keep pausing just to catch the references and I probably didn’t even catch them all!
Hilarious references, and yet I'm crying because of the two ghosts
This is brilliant - but suffering from a lack of Cordelia. Still brilliant, though.
This is amazing. I would totally watch an animated series of Buffy. Thank you!
This is fantastic. I am so in awe of your talent!
this song is perfect
Awesome! I loved the bit with Willow changing her hair colour, it was so cool. Oh, and the bits with Tara... because Tara!
I would totally watch this version of the show!
Same here! If it's Buffy and the voices of the original cast... then I'm good. :)
Amazing. If only the animated series was a quarter as well made and charming... Buffy even has her trademark halfsmile! The attention to Buffyfacts and details is wicked!
0:33 >Buffy falling through the Deeper Well
Did this happen in the comics?
Can't get enough of this... WE NEED IT!
This is also amazing! Glad I stumbled onto this channel
I love how Dawn was popping up in the Universe with Nothing but Shrimp!
I love buffy. This was fantastic. I would watch this SOOOOO much.
Gotta love that Xander is playing with a Serenity model. :)
I want this to be a real thing so much.
me to.
Awesomeness. It was great, I loved the spike angel buffy separate clip so epica!
This needs to go to series. Right NOW.
I love the inclusion of Tara
This needs to be a real show it would be awesome.
THIS is what should be happening, not the reboot. awesome job, btw. Characters look and feel on point! Thanks for making + sharing.
buffy was the best show ever. god bless dark horse comics for carrying it on!!!
Oh, the memories... so overwhelming.
This is one of the few shows on which I didn't fast forward the intro.
I miss it, even though I finished binge watching it not two months ago.
This now makes me want to watch Buffy even more.
I love how Xander is the huge Whedon fan with merchandise from all his shows.
This needs to be a thing
I'd watch this.
