This storytelling is amazing!! I love how you drew the backgrounds and Monk and Survivor's relationship. I feel like the fandom gives Monk too much shit when they didn't even do anything 😭 they literally jumped into a whirlpool despite their lack of physical strength after their sibling when they were a pup!! They deserve more respect and so does this PMV.
@@umwhatdoiputherehate to be the "Well actually" guy, but... in the canon story, it's likely that Survivor fell as a pup and stayed in the area behind spawn until he grew up. Monk didn't jump after him immediately, he stayed with their family. It was already after they both grew up, and the scug colony migrated that Monk decided to go back for Survivor. That's why there's only slugpups in Survivor, Hunter, and Gourmand. The scug colony is still in OE at that time
@@xXFeralPyr0pteraXx You literally see them jump in the beginning cutscene, still a pup, after Surv? They fell together, but got separated. That's what I think though, I could be wrong,
@justyouraveragebird5996 Idk, that's how the DP lore goes, and it explains why there's no pups for Monk since the colony already migrated. I also thought Monk jumped immediately after Survivor, that's probably how it is in vanilla
When I first joined the fandom over a year ago, everyone was always talking about how cool Survivor was or how badass Hunter was and they always bullied Monk but I liked Monk because of their story. Also banana slug
Monk may not be my favorite slug to play but I _LOVE_ their story. It breaks my heart that they basically never see Survivor again until they both ascend :'D
Lolight! I love your videos! When I finish Rain World I'm thinking of making a mod because of how much your videos have inspired me. Anyways, I blathered to much. Have a good day!
Going into this I honestly wasn't sure what to expect but I am soooo pleasantly surprised ^^ amazing work! Also Monk is so overlooked cause of surviver it's good to see a AMV that actually focuses on them in any degree!!
your composition is so pretty! something really just hits me about those 2 last panels transitioning at 1:22 is so beautiful, monk looking up and then the screen changing to moon, illuminated in the light and higher compositionally, creates a sense of upward liftment that is so powerful to me. tysm for creating!
I like Monk because more than seeming like the dumb, incapable little sibling, they seem wiser despite being younger, they know their limits and that they aren't too good at fighting, but by staying in good terms with the wildlife, there's no need to fight since they won't be attacked. They also seem very brave, after all they were the only one ballsy enough to jump after their sibling, with no guarantee that either of them would even survive. They had no idea if Survivor had made it out alive yet they never gave up in their search for their sibling, I think that is admirable Monk is not a cowardly little kid, the fandom has been reading them all wrong Edit: AND !! They also took time out of their search for their sibling to bring Moon some neurons, despite not knowing this random blue lady they saw someone in need and knew they needed to help. Monk is probably one of the most selfless and honorable scugs next to Hunter (I would say Saint too but we don't really know what their deal is and I don't wanna jump to conclusions)
Monk is the boy!!! I love him!!! Edit: it’s been five months since I first watched this! And I still love it lol, but I honestly feel like the only reason surv didn’t wait for monk is because they didn’t expect monk to follow it, so it closed its eyes and just accepted their fate like they did in the animatic at 0:46 Anyways reminder this is still my favorite vanilla game animatic
The video is really beautiful, but my god those subtitles are a pain to read. Please in the future remember that this is a accessibility thing, not an aesthetic thing, you can't read them easily as they blend in with everything else.
im so so sorry, i definetly rushed the subtitles and should've been more mindful D: i keep subtitles on myself since i find it hard to make out what people r saying (especially in songs) and wish subtitles were added more often in pmvs/amvs for that reason. when i can, i'll update the subtitles and i'll keep this in mind for future, thank you so much for telling me!!
@@umwhatdoiputhere Thanks so much for understanding! I rely on subtitles most of the time due to hearing issues, so more often than not it's much worse to discover that a video has subtitles, but they're more for aesthetics purposes, and there's no other options like auto-generated ones (Btw, no negativity towards you, everything else done is awesome!)

thank you!! i love monks story and think their relationship w survivor is rlly sweet, they barely hesitated to jump after their sibling
@@umwhatdoiputhere literally!! monk is just so sweet and brave like no hesitation in going after survivor
baby does not deserved the hate

Me too

There is an alternative ending to Monk and Survivors story. I don't want to spoil it but if you ask I will tell you.
step 1. downpour dlc
step 2. gourmand
step 3. head back to gourm's ending region as the two siblings, do surv first
The outer expanse ending also exists!
The art in this is absolutely beautiful :)

I love Monk’s story so much, thank you for making this for them!!!
Going into this I honestly wasn't sure what to expect but I am soooo pleasantly surprised ^^ amazing work!
Also Monk is so overlooked cause of surviver it's good to see a AMV that actually focuses on them in any degree!!
the sketch style for the skugs is so charming i love this :3
Monk is awesome slugcat too
He/She is indeed brave that he/she decided to save survivor
So adorablee. And I like how you draw slugcats more like slug than cat, it's a nice change
