Besides being immortal, Death like the rest of the Endless is omniscient but she also has the power of Nigh-Omnipresence. Being Death, she is everywhere on Earth at any moment, she also is the most powerful of all her siblings including Destiny.
Yup, In the comics (which I guess also applies to the show's version) she is universal in reach, she literally is everywhere at once. Every time a creature dies, no matter how big or small, no matter how far away it is, she is there to serve as a guide. I recall a comic where Lex Luthor had a near-death experience and meets her, and he questions her about the recent Black Lantern event where this Nekron guy claimed to be the incarnation of death and threatned all life on a galactic scale. Hilariously, her response was just a shrug with a pouty face anjd saying "seemed like you guys were having fun, no big deal", like she was so above all that superhero crap that it barely registered on her radar.
Seeing how differently people respond to death is fascinating. An old man, who lived a good life, asking for more time. To the young “junkie” who goes happily, willingly, ready to leave. I pray death is this beautiful and kind when it’s my time.
It's so fun to see the juxtaposition of the people that have no idea what's coming against the people that have read the source material and get excited
I would love to believe that when Morpheus and Hob met up again, they spent a longer time together. Reminiscing about the missed meeting and even everything from when they first met. That's usually what happens when old friends meet after not seeing each other for a long time.
This episode was the most beautiful poetry. Kirby is a TRIUMPH! Just an absolutely incredible performance and as we all die we all can see the deep beauty in all of this. ❤ This whole episode was just intense on such a great level.
When I finally read in the comics why Dream sent Nada to Hell, I was laughing at how HUGE Dream's Ego is. The Pride! 🤣 But I guess, he is an Endless. They don't follow such rules as Morality or Humanity or whatever. 🤷♀️
True, why should an enternal entity be bound by human morality or sentiments? Their entire frame of reference would be extremely different from that of mortal humans. Also, 10,000 years to an eternal being would be like nothing. Dream being bound for 100 years would be like getting stuck for a few hours to a being who has always existed.
That episode is absolutely beautiful and made me cry many many times… Absolutely incredible depiction of Death and its inevitability. Fuck and I cried at the baby scene again…
I have been in love with Death of the Endless for over a decade. Watching these reactors figure out who she is and love her and see her kindness and love. O wow this tore me up. Thanks for this compilation she is so wonderful she is such a gift of a character from Neil Gaiman
I love how they all miss the fact that the bits of background conversation happening in the bar each time they meet reflects the idea of how while some things change, some things remain the same. It's something Gaiman put into the comic book panels intentionally.
She tells the baby yeah I'm sorry that's all you get. I think in the books she tells somebody that yes that's all you get you get what everyone else gets a lifetime. But it doesn't say how long that lifetime is could be short like the baby or long like the man and the violin
It was interesting to see from the get-go, who only watches the series and who knew the story already from either comic or audiobook. Ranging from does he know her to mouthing the dialogue word for word, because this adaptation actually did a great job with the source material. So many key things are taken straight from there. Really well done,can't wait for the next seasons.
13:16 the Endless are kind of like the laws of the universe, without them the universe wouldn't function. Technically it goes The Presence (God) > archangels Michael, Samael (Lucifer's real name), and Gabriel in current canon Lucifer is the only one left (Gabriela and Michael died, and God left the DC universe)m Elaine Belloc (Michael's Daughter) is basically taken over gods role, her and Lucifer are the two most powerful beings, after the Archangels you have The Endless in the hierarchy.
Desire and despair are the ones that made Rao (krypton's sun) to bring life to the planet and, eventually, destroy it, with Kal-El (superman) surviving.
Thank you for creating this multi platform reaction I know those can be stressful and confusing but thank you it really helps us with the perspective of others
Death is psychopomp which means the “guide of souls”. Every mythology has their own psychopomps. Thanatos and Charon are psychopomps in Greek Mythology. The Valkyries in Norse mythology. Anubis in Greek Mythology. Death of the Endless is just one of many psychopomps of DC comics but she is the most important one. She even appears as H’ronmeer, Martian death god, to J’onn J’onzz
I love how you expect hob to just give up after the second meeting but, Gail an really pushes the point that we fundamentally don’t change in our desires and ways of living
Excellent episode, definitely the best of the series, the previous ones where very good too, but unfortunately I wasn't much of a fan of the storyline that came next, still an awesome adaptation, thanks for these edits!
Whenever I see positive representations of death, I wonder... is this a good message for someone who is suicidal? Telling him that it is a gift, a relief and all that...
Just recently checked the graphic novel version of this episode. If there were precise Dream would have been in Washington Square Park in NYC. Which I would have loved because I LIVE in NYC. 😉
@@bethanychatman9531 well he clearly was a holocaust survivor and when you become victim to a man who hate for what race and religion you believe in you kinda vow to yourself to never put that hate towards anyone else because it happened to you
So I guess I'm one of the few who are of a religion where death is viewed as a friend or more like a shadow that comes for us all in a form that isn't horrific. We mourn those we loose but not Death itself.
The baby going: "Is that it? That's all I get?" is just devastating.
Everyone always is like, "Oh, it was so sad to see Sam die" and I just think, "wait for the next one".
When that lady said "it's a good thing that guy was old". I was like aw baby I got news for you
who knew? "Inspirations can arise even from death"
Besides being immortal, Death like the rest of the Endless is omniscient but she also has the power of Nigh-Omnipresence. Being Death, she is everywhere on Earth at any moment, she also is the most powerful of all her siblings including Destiny.
Yep. It's even implied that not even the furies can approach her. She's beyond any rule.

Until the end, when Death no longer serves a purpose and the end of the universe becomes 'Destiny'...
@@Forbidaxe Even Destiny will end before Death does.
@@Forbidaxe actually no, she is also the "reaper" of her siblings.
"Please be death, she's gorgeous. That was a bit thanos of me wasn't it" BRUH XXXXXXXXD
Seeing how differently people respond to death is fascinating. An old man, who lived a good life, asking for more time. To the young “junkie” who goes happily, willingly, ready to leave. I pray death is this beautiful and kind when it’s my time.
Lil baby bitter he only gets so much😢
@KoiYakultGreenTea not necessarily bitter. She only answered a question.
"Is that it? That's all I get?"
she committed suicide through OD, she’ll be ODi’ing for eternity in Hell. and the Old man gets Heaven
Gaiman and Pratchett had the best freaking attitude toward a personal Death.
The choice to not show the still baby and not hear the mother's cries was perfect restraint. We didnt beed those.
I was terrified we would. I've heard that cry before. I've made that cry. I do not need to hear it.
I heard it in the NICU, room next to ours. I never need to hear it again it stays with you.
When everyone's bawling their eyes out, then there's Yoshi, Sheera, and Lupa..
LMAO yeah…
Sheera's "Drug Belt" makes me laugh everytime! 😂😂😂
I mean... a drug belt. How can you not laugh.
Love them so much lmaooo
Staying real af
It's so fun to see the juxtaposition of the people that have no idea what's coming against the people that have read the source material and get excited
That's me with the Mandalorian reacts too 😂
I love complications of reacts
The difference between people so excited to see her, vs the people slowly figuring it out but also falling in love with her . God so wonderful
I would love to believe that when Morpheus and Hob met up again, they spent a longer time together. Reminiscing about the missed meeting and even everything from when they first met. That's usually what happens when old friends meet after not seeing each other for a long time.
😊😊
"When the last living thing dies,...and lock the universe behind me..." in the Comics, she actually said that to Element Girl and not to Dream.
Yeah but I suspect... that scene won't make it into the TV series. I mean, doesn't that hit a snarl of licensing issues...?
@@keremindeyep I bet you are right
This episode was the most beautiful poetry. Kirby is a TRIUMPH! Just an absolutely incredible performance and as we all die we all can see the deep beauty in all of this. ❤ This whole episode was just intense on such a great level.
A beautiful adaptation of one of the best moments from the comic. Same with Hob as well.
When I finally read in the comics why Dream sent Nada to Hell, I was laughing at how HUGE Dream's Ego is. The Pride! 🤣 But I guess, he is an Endless. They don't follow such rules as Morality or Humanity or whatever. 🤷♀️

I like this depiction of death: it’s not a personal thing for her. It’s just a job, and she does it well.
You get what everyone gets - you get a lifetime.
I have been in love with Death of the Endless for over a decade. Watching these reactors figure out who she is and love her and see her kindness and love. O wow this tore me up. Thanks for this compilation she is so wonderful she is such a gift of a character from Neil Gaiman
12:10 Ooh noooo! I never noticed the belt! I thought this was someone that got stung by a bee and died of an allergic reaction!
What an emotional one-two punch this episode is. Just the best.
After balling my eyes out, watching this video is the definition of Schadenfreude. Lets all cry together
I love how they all miss the fact that the bits of background conversation happening in the bar each time they meet reflects the idea of how while some things change, some things remain the same. It's something Gaiman put into the comic book panels intentionally.
"Pass me my drug belt"
She tells the baby yeah I'm sorry that's all you get. I think in the books she tells somebody that yes that's all you get you get what everyone else gets a lifetime. But it doesn't say how long that lifetime is could be short like the baby or long like the man and the violin

Is this all covered in Mike Carey's Lucifer graphic novel series.
Desire and despair are the ones that made Rao (krypton's sun) to bring life to the planet and, eventually, destroy it, with Kal-El (superman) surviving.
"I'll always love her. All my life."
Watching people react to this and 24/7 makes me realise how emotionless I am
The idea that she chooses who dies is low key hilarious. "Oh look, a baby!".
I could watch a whole show around Hob through the ages
Bonus points for that Kanye reference, I was not expecting that
Everyone is written in the book of destiny before even their first breath
I love how you edited this... just brilliant :)
You get no more and no less, you get a lifetime.
when i will die one day because it is inevitable, i hope that this is how it happens. It would be super peaceful
oooo i love that you're continuing editing this series. thank you
i read a quote that said that any mortal meeting 1of the Endless can screw with your day for a lifetime
Thank you for creating this multi platform reaction I know those can be stressful and confusing but thank you it really helps us with the perspective of others
The way they took Franklin is the same way my brother and mother were taken in a bus accident on the same day.
"I'm gonna cry this episode, aren't I." Oh yeah.
Neil Gaiman wrote death as he hoped it would be when his time came, welcoming and comforting not some scary being.
Yay! I’ve been looking forward to this one 😊
The phrasing of 21:56 is so funny to me and I know the information of the dialogue is terrible but still 💀
Death loves life and everyone is so confused
It's not the dead I feel sorrow for, but Death.
Keep going man. Love your work.
I wanna asks, are you going to do the rest of the show, because I would love to see all of them
Death is my favorite character in Sandman.
Everyone who liked Death should most definitely watch the animated short DC Showcase : Death. I can't believe how underrated it is.
Oh dude this episode really gets you if you have lost loved ones
You edited this so well man! consider me a new subscriber.

Why didn't she look for him, help him? He was held captive for so long, why didn't she do anything, especially since they were after her.
Whenever I see positive representations of death, I wonder... is this a good message for someone who is suicidal? Telling him that it is a gift, a relief and all that...
Just recently checked the graphic novel version of this episode. If there were precise Dream would have been in Washington Square Park in NYC. Which I would have loved because I LIVE in NYC. 😉
the part at time 17:04 she can keep him alive but she told the child who died before his time is up ?
I love the original death but I love this one too.
En este episodio me costó trabajar entender pero después de ver cómo tres veces entendí que así es la vida vivir y morir sin importar la edad
ohh i really like how you edtied this
While hope dies with life or consciousness.. I would still ask someone to help me with Netflix to watch what's this one is about..😅
The video skips 1589, why?
Im glad to see Queen Victoria and Mr Francatelli again
Great work!
Prodigal son? Shall we talk about destruction. If you know you know.
Can't wait to see who they are going to cast for the other Siblings. And Orpheus, of course. Can't wait to see them all.
Death is leng just quietly 🌝
Can’t wait! I love this episode!
I loved this!
Sunless lands.
The shimmering plains. These are old names.
The couple at 11:30 went through this so it was so hard to watch it
0:07 Yo doesn't she look like a female Hank Scrader from BB or am i tripping??!
the protocol is destruction
I always known that a woman would be the death of me… 😏
0:07 what's her link ? double checked at went through them all (your list in the description and couldn't find it
The last one in the description CultureSlate Reacts
@@reactthisiit was that there before? did i miss it? or did you add it for me?.... did i go crazy? anyway thanks
This the best Episode after Hope in Hell
The guy who called the old man racist would be funny when he was Jewish
When he realized that he’s Jewish
I mean he could still be racist. What does his religion have to do with it.
@@bethanychatman9531 well he clearly was a holocaust survivor and when you become victim to a man who hate for what race and religion you believe in you kinda vow to yourself to never put that hate towards anyone else because it happened to you
So I guess I'm one of the few who are of a religion where death is viewed as a friend or more like a shadow that comes for us all in a form that isn't horrific.
We mourn those we loose but not Death itself.
Si van a mirar y reaccionar no se burlen porque la luz está SERCA de ustedes
I still like Kat Dennings from the radio drama.
Devil's advocate here.. the black man drowns.
😢😢😢cried again
1:27 They lying. Revenge is hella satisfying
Imagine your a baby. And you lived a month and died from sids
