☆CLOSE TO YOU Undertale Animation☆
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ม.ค. 2018
- Thank you for watching my first animation! (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ
You can subscribe to see my future projects~
Also I'll be very pleased if you share this animation with your friends or make a reaction to this~ (//▽//)
It took me 1,5 years to make it with zero skills in animating~ ;v; That's why it may look like a collaboration with myself from the past Although, now I can see lot of mistakes (especially in the earliest scenes from the 1:02 =▽= ) I'm also happy with the result as it's not every day when you can see a yearly progress in one huge animation haha~ ^ ^
I decided to make an animation for this song as we all know that Sans is one of the most interesting and untold character in Undertale. I was inspired by other animations and interpretations of this character, so I was excited to show him from my point of view. Same for Frisk/Chara and Papyrus (o´∀`o)
To tell you the truth, it wasn't easy to keep myself motivated until the end, but I'm really thankful to my subscribers, friends and family, who encouraged me all this time. Without you this animation couldn't become real ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
Thank you for reading this description until the end ^ ^
See you~ (ﾉ´ヮ`)ﾉ*: ･ﾟ

Everyone is talking about everything but the singer. Can we??? Appreciate him?? So much emotion?? Sounds so good?? Aaa?
She's a girl wtf
Um??? No?? The singer isn't a girl.
@@Rebecca-ob3jz I thought you were talking to the creator lol and that voice is only a bot
@@darkblade8798 the person singing is a bot?
@@darkblade8798 it's a real person my dude, look in the description of the video and they credit the singer
Even the Voice Crack the Voice Actor does after Sans gets Hit shows How much Emotion is in this Video. 10/10
I know that nobody will read this comment and I should have written it a long time ago but this song helped me a lot, it literally made me cry and I don't know how to thank you, thank you so much, I haven't felt this feeling for years
This song made me cry aswell
I felt that. I've known this videi since it came out, and I still feel every emotions that I felt the first time I listened to it and watched it. The song and the video are amazing and I honestly don't think I'll ever get over it
sans.
who didn't make him cry?
As someone who doesn't cry often, this almost. Almost, made me cry
me: hmmm undertale close to you sounds cool
5 seconds later
me: *balling my eves out*
Same here
“Eves out”
TheMostStupidGurl omg I didn't even notice XD
5 Seconds Is Just A Flower
Pretty shure you mean 5 minutes latter
Hi welcome to Starbucks what would you like?

I'm depresso and I want an exspreso
More exspresso less depresso
And hydrate don't diedrate
Wait is this a pun of depression? Cuz if it is i get lel ;w;
Hehe yeah it is.......I NEED A LIFE
doesnt matter if i know the lyrics off by heart,
doesnt matter if this is one of my fav animations in the fandom,
doesnt matter if its 5 years old,
doesnt matter if these comments are old,
doesnt matter if i come back to this animation atleast once a week,
doesnt matter if my undertale phase will some day leave me,
because at the end of it all,
*this still makes me shed a tear.*
Edit: Seriously tho, this is beautiful you really have a talent in animation.
Second edit: STILL HERE IN 2024!
for real, its been 5 years but its so good
omfg i feel you, thats so damn true
I agree
Tbh, i wish i didnt leave my undertale phase. Dont leave it. Not yet. Keep that, and keep on listening to this
YESS
The flowers of the new and laughter of the past
They're beautiful like you, beauty unsurpassed
Gone with a whisper, you fall asleep like death
Breaking through the earth, your smile shines again
My empty gratitude, another empty thank you
I finally learnt regret from words I've always said
Never meant to speak to hurt, yet it hurt to put in words
Goodbye wherever you are, goodbye unbroken heart
In truth I want to feel, the truth I want to see
I'm trying to embrace your drifting heart and smile
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes
I keep on looking forward at you, hoping that your light will never pass me by
I wonder what the stars that sparkle in your eyes are hiding from my mind
Hiding from my open heart and from your hoping heart
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, forever, I will find my way
You may never answer back my call, but you smile back at me with grace
And everything remains the same, this pain I'll soon awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears
A shape of broken line will never be the same
It'll never find new life as a body of remains
A soul without a form, endlessly it'll chase
But will my broken heart find another place?
In truth I want to feel, the truth I'll never see
I'm trying to erase how far we've walked in miles
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears as I look up at the sky
I keep on looking forward at it hoping that I'll find you soon enough in time
I wonder if the stars that sparkle in my eyes will eventually subside
Hiding from my endless heartbeat, from my endless heartbeat
Together, you and I will always be alive, committed, close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, then maybe I will find a way
I can never travel back in time, but they smile back at me, those days
And everything remains the same, this pain I'll soon awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears
Replaying time again, replaying time again
Repeating time again, repeating time again
Reflected in my heart, reflected in my heart
Your never ending laughter
Papyrus
(Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears)
Can't you feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes?
I keep on looking forward at you hoping that in time your light will pass me by
Now I know the stars that sparkle in your eyes are guiding me to light
Guiding to my open heart and to your open heart
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
This time will never hold my tears or hold my feelings down they pour like silent rain
All the colors forming back the life I knew when all remained the same
Somehow in a finite time, this time I'll find my way out
And I see I've barely reached you
And your heart
Thank you, kind traveller.
On the second last paragraph I think its time will never hold my tears. Thank you so much for this tho!
@@Kaii540 I just copy pasted it without checking the lyrics
Lyric lmao

"son, why are you crying in the middle of the night?"
M-Mom i am criying for skeleton boi *sobs*
These are tears of joy bc i just murdered all the monsters
A skeleton made me cry
Uuhh this didn't make me cry umm infected just stabbed me
If you say that they're probably gonna say "that's the stupidest excuse." Tbh
Okay so it’s been about 3 years now and I still cry over this animation :”)
Lol same
As you should!
@@AnEldritchBeing well uh I didn’t cry. am I a monster for that?
@@horroristic3104 even monsters cry about it:) so no, and I mean that in the worst way possible
It's only been ess than a year for me, but honestly, I'd be worried if I didn't cry over it when I watch it. (No offence, HorrorIzHere)
Honestly it's been years since I've seen this and it still goes hard. There are so many toxic fandoms and communities, but this is the undertale community.
I'm with you. Honestly, even if the undertale fandom is twisted now, we must look back at where we started. We started from a masterpiece. We are still with a masterpiece.
Lyrics:
The Flowers Of The New,
The Laughter Of The Past,
They're Beautiful Like You,
Beauty Unsurpassed.
Gone With A Whisper,
Fall Asleep Like Death,
Breaking Through The Earth.
Your Smile Shines Again..
My Empry Gratitude,
Another Empty Thank You,
I Finally Learned Regret,
From Words I've Always Said
Never Meant To Speak To Hurt
Yet It Hurts To Put In Words,
Goodbye Wherever You Are,
Goodbye Unbroken Heart,
In The Truth I Want To Feel,
The Truth I Want To See,
Im Trying To Embrace Your Drifting Heart And Smile,
Whenever I Begin To Feel The Burning Tears, Is Overflowing From My Eyes,
I Keep On Looking Forward At, Hoping That Your Light Will Never Pass Me By, I Wonder What The Stars That Sparkle In Your Eyes Are Hiding From My Mind, Hiding From My Open Heart, And From You Open Heart
Together You And I Will Always Be Alive, Connected Close To You I'll Stay.
As Long As I Can Hold Your Hand, Again And Again, Forever I Will Find A Way,
You May Never Answer Back My Call, But You Smile Back At Me With Grace.
And Everything Remains The Same. This Pain I'll Soon Awake From, What I See Will Melt All Away... With My Tears.
A Shape Of Broken Line,
Will Never Be The Same.
It'll Never Find New Life,
As A Body Of Remains,
A Soul Without A Form,
Endlessly It'll Chase,
But Will My Broken Heart,
Find Another Place?.
In The Truth I Want To Feel,
The Truth I'll Never See,
Im Trying To Erase How Far We've Walk In MILES!.
Whenever I Begin To Feel,
The Burning Tears,
As I Look Up At The Sky,
I Keep On Looking Forward At,
Hoping That,
I'll Find You Soon Enough In Time,
I Wonder If The Stars That Sparkle In My Eyes,
Will Eventually Subside,
Hiding From My Endless Heartbeat,
From My Endless Heartbeat,
Together You And I Will Always Be Alive,
Commited Close To You I'll Stay,
As Long As I Can Hold Your Hand,
Again And Again,
Then Maybe I Will Find A Way,
I Can Never Travel Back In Time,
But You Smile Back At Me Those Days,
And Everything Remains The Same,
This Pain I'll Soon Awake From,
What I See Will Melt All Away,
With My Tears..
Replaying Time Again,
Replaying Time Again,
Repeating Time Again,
Repeating Time Again,
Reflected In My Heart,
Reflected In My Heart,
You Never Ending LAUGHTER~...
Papyrus.
Whenever I Begin To Feel The Burning Tears...
Can You Feel The Burning Tears,
Is Overflowing From My Eyes,
I Keep On Looking Forward At Hoping That,
In Time Your Light Will Pass Me By,
Now I Know The Stars That Sparkle In Your Eyes Are Guiding Me To Light,
Guiding To My Open Heart,
And From Your Open Heart,
Together You And I Will Always Be Alive,
Connected,
Close To You I'll Stay,
Time Will Never Hold My Tears,
Or Hold My Feelings,
Down They Pour Like Silent Rain,
All The Colors Forming Back To Life I Knew When All Remained The Same,
Somehow In A Finite Time,
This Time I'll Find My Way Out,
And I See I've Barely Reached You...
And Your Heart~...
Ok, No Offence, But I'm Not Reading This, This Is The Longest Comment, In Human History.
@@inktirrell5016new to youtube?
@@ComicallyLargeHugo Nope, Been Here, For Years.
@@inktirrell5016 doubt it because ive seen longer comments 😭
Thanks
3-5 years ago, everything was amazing. Undertale was made, animations were made. Now at this point, people are still making animations of the game. The game has been carried on for so long, it’s amazing. The people in this community are great. I love the animation. And yes I know this was uploaded a long time ago but still, it’s amazing.
Maybe someone should make a fan game of undertale 2! If I knew how to code, I would definitely do it
@@switchy_kova393 I’ve been thinking about doing it, it would take a long time but I might!
@@yourlocallazyanimator That would be awesome if you could! And even if you take a long time, take your time! Besides, the best games take the longest :))
@@switchy_kova393 i decided I will :) Don’t forget!
@@yourlocallazyanimator I’m with you in the dark :)
I think this is the only animation that shows Sans not as this overpowered smiling jokster but rather as the real him. A very depressed person who goes through hell again and again. Every step that he takes in this video feels like a really hurt person and not like a surreal nightmare of bad puns. You did a beautiful job on the animation and focus of this video and i love it ♡
Ur analysis made me cri again ;)
@@Periwinkk lol
*your headcanon of him
like in the song I cant travel back in time to save our love ones like us
The one you're mentioning is Fanon Sans
Even though I recently left the fandom due to losing interest, I can't help coming back here every now and then. I can't get over the fact that this is a truly amazing animation! Not only that but whoever sang the song really put a lot of emotion into the lyrics, and I want to appreciate that as well. Two amazing things to create this masterpiece!
This is nostalgia for me
@@night_fall2561 same
I wish the singer didn’t private/delete their old video. I loved the og video too
For real bro. I wanna get back into the fandom but it does not has the spark like it once did. I don't know if roblox undertale games are getting worse or if undertale isn't as cool as it once was, but I wanna get back into it. I really agree with you completely and it's sad at least for me that times are changing so quickly
А я недавно вступила))
Proud to say this song has never failed to make me sob
*”CAN YOU FEEL THE BURNING TEARS?”*
Yes I can Sans yes I can....
😭😭😭
Me too
That multi-fandom fan I jus wanna cuddle him and tell him it's gonna be oki
Also is it bad that I uhmmm sorta killed papyrus and then when I got to sans fight I regreted it cried a little I understand if im sorta a killer cause I...I... im sorryyyyyyyy. *runs of crying*
I can... ;-;
good i cant cry
hehe
“don’t trust anyone, even the devil was once an angel”
And that's what I call a "Fallen Angel"
Hold up! wait a minute! something ain't right!
They're exposing there souls!
Only humans can do that!
and that angel was me..i couldnt trust my self
@@BluMahn emo much
Kepala bana hang
Even four years later, this is still by far the best Undertale animation and song i've ever seen.
Its even more impressive that you kept yourself motivated enough to finish after a whole year and a half.
Kehvin did an absolutely amazing job with the singing and the instrumental by Justin pulls it all together.
I miss when the fandom was big and all, it was such a good time
But it will always stay in our hearts, thank you to Toby fox for this amazing game, universe he made❤️
I still hope someday the fandom will come back 🌟❤️
Stay determined everybody ❤️
It’s kind of funny, Toby fox was probably like, “what if I made an RPG where there was this kid who fell down a hole, and saw a goat family, two dramatic skeletons, and a fish lady.” And we got to this point
Edit: and a frustrating dinosaur, a robot, a soulless flower, a man who speaks in hands and is probably the skeletons dad, a depressed ghost, and seven dead children and one of them is a demon, and a spider who eats children for no reason, and a messed up dog
Two what skeletons?Dramatic?!how tf??
And temmie
And a cannibalistic spider. Yes. A cannibalistic spider.
@dalphabanana And a fucking dead child.
@dalphabanana Sometimes they can be a Pacifist Toddler too.
I'm 33 years old...a grown,strong woman who has seen some fucked up stuff in her life. I learned not to cry over everything sad I see. And now I am sitting here and crying my eyes out. Very,very well done! Seriously this is amazing. It catches their brotherly love and bond on point. Papyrus and Sans were always my favorites
Raven: sans and papyurs are the best....
Angel: Neyh heh- ...NOPE!! I'm not saying it!
Raven: ...
Angel: okay maybe this once...NYEH HEH HEH!!!
Heh me too even if i dont have a brother nor a sister i know what losing somone feels like so i kept the tears to myself heh dammit this song just made me cry heh heh welp i gotta go and i want dis song to be in spotify plss
Your 33 and you like undertale
I salute you
Sans and Papyrus are my favorite to
@AVA LAWSON - STUDENT -_- why you sing a song there is a song-_- and you can do this? ==[]::::::::::::::::::::>
I wanna cry because I missed the peak of the Undertale fandom, but as a newer fan, people still appreciate that after all this time they are still getting newbies, which can be said differently for different fandoms *COUGH FNaF COUGH*
these kinds of videos are just the modern version of how poets and bards would write songs glorifying mythical figures like great heroes and gods
change my mind
Friend: Are you crying?
Me: NO! I just got something in my eyes-
Friend: What?
Me: TEARS! TAT
Galaxy Meteor NOT ME,
I GOT SANS’ DUST IN MINE!
:'3
Galaxy Meteor I cry golden tears
@@LoverOfStuff who do you make the saddest song on youtube funny!
3:52 **slash**
Sans:.....**refuses and sings even louder**
;'( I cried 100 times watching this but it was so good
I don't know why this happens but when I am on a slant I start crying
*snaps fingers and sends demon form of self after sans and everyone else then merges with demon form* Shadowfang: health(999999999999) defense( 9999999999)

Reading this comment made me filled with... *DETERMiNATION* no it filled me with sadness...
@@Shadowgames667 uhhhhhhhhhh
He even said papayrus in a sad voice
Wdym it isn’t on Spotify? This is a masterpiece, and continues being a masterpiece even after 5 years, which IS CRAZY. This is so good wth
Its on Spotify.
This animation just shows how deep his love and brotherhood to papyrus when anyone takes the genocide path. (Just look at how many times he had to suffer this same process) This is probably why sans became insane in the dusttale au.
I want to sing this for my school talent show but first I have to work on not crying when ever I hear it
Same!!
I would if my school had a talent show.
We are too boring for that.
It’s hard for me to not to cry either, I have a brother in college, and I always worry that he will never come home.
Same ☹️
xXStarWolfXx I can’t because in our school there’s no talent show and I would cry remembering my big bro and friends
my school doesn't do talent shows i wish hey did so i could sing this
1.5 years for a 5 minute video, now that’s some dedication
I guess you could say it’s DETERMINATION
That is impresive I'd give up within the first year
Ahem i think you mean DETERMINATION oh wait metallion already wrote that oh ok
That last bit just feels like he is taking his last breaths before death.
It hits so hard for me
Now I wish sans wore Papyrus’s cape in the genocide route. That was a really interesting extra detail.
i think its a scarf
This is the song lyrics:
The flowers of the new and laughter of the past
They're beautiful like you, beauty unsurpassed
Gone with a whisper, you fall asleep like death
Breaking through the earth, your smile shines again
My empty gratitude, another empty thank you
I finally learnt regret from words I've always said
Never meant to speak to hurt, yet it hurt to put in words
Goodbye wherever you are, goodbye unbroken heart
In truth I want to feel, the truth I want to see
I'm trying to embrace your drifting heart and smile
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes
I keep on looking forward at you, hoping that your light will never pass me by
I wonder what the stars that sparkle in your eyes are hiding from my mind
Hiding from my open heart and from your open heart
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, forever, I will find my way
You may never answer back my call, but you smile back at me with grace
And everything remains the same, this pain I'll soon awake from
More below the ad
What I see will melt all away
With my tears
A shape of broken line will never be the same
It'll never find new life as a body of remains
A soul without a form, endlessly it'll chase
But will my broken heart find another place?
In truth I want to feel, the truth I'll never see
I'm trying to erase how far we've walked in miles
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears as I look up at the sky
I keep on looking forward at it hoping that I'll find you soon enough in time
I wonder if the stars that sparkle in my eyes will eventually subside
Hiding from my endless heartbeat, from my endless heartbeat
Together, you and I will always be alive, committed, close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again, then maybe I will find a way
I can never travel back in time, but they smile back at me, those days
And everything remains the same, this pain I'll soon awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears
Replaying time again, replaying time again
Repeating time again, repeating time again
Reflected in my heart, reflected in my heart
Your never ending laughter
Papyrus
(Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears)
Can't you feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes?
I keep on looking forward at you hoping that in time your light will pass me by
Now I know the stars that sparkle in your eyes are guiding me to light
Guiding to my open heart and to your open heart
Together, you and I will always be alive, connected, close to you I'll stay
Time will never hold my tears or hold my feelings down they pour like silent rain
All the colors forming back the life I knew when all remained the same
Somehow in a finite time, this time I'll find my way out
And I see I've barely reached you
And your heart
Thanks for lyrics :3
You're welcome!
Wow how long it took 😍
Thanks for posting!
Like, forever! Until at night!
Who’s watching this in... 2020?!?!? (Yes it’s the first of January)
This song still makes me wanna cry in a dark room...
yeah, i actually cried even i'm a boy tho.
I am
2020 February 👌🏻
Hi
I
i actually cried... i haven't cried like i did in years, this song seems to bring out emotions that i kept buried... and i thank you for that.
...I still tear up every time I hear "I've barely reached you and your heart". Thank you for working so hard to make this stunning animation. I'm pretty new to Undertale, but this really growed my interest for the game. I only wish I did it sooner so I could've wrote this years ago!
Why is this looks like an anime opening in genocide run?
idk but is soooooooooooo great!
TOSHII KAWAII Opening? More like Anime Ending
More like ED XD
Idk
Too much spoilers.
Here are the lyrics
The flowers of the new
The laughter of the past

together you and i will always be alive connected close to you I'll stay as long
as i can hold your hand again and again forever i will find my way

Thank you
Hah your sans gf
Thank you for the lyrics ;-; cause I couldn’t really catch up on the song while singing lol
@@dnnie_the_weird_potatgacha6221 you could just read subtitles -_-
the first time i watched this 2 years ago, i sobbed. Ive grown a lot in those 2 years, but i will always love this fandom and all the amazing people in it that I’ve met. thank you for making this animatic.
it has been 5 years since this animation released but its still one of the best in the fandom
thank you for giving such a masterpiece to us
Where are all the people who /still/ love undertale. This is a wonderful animation and it deserves more love.
Skello sup I cried the entire time
I'm here everyday,it's great, my fav song, fav cover,fav game, favorate animator, I always come back to this
Rusty The Wolf so good though right
*i love undertale so much!!!!* AND YES, I AGREE
Beat me by 3 months
4 years later and this song still gives me this strong feeling in my chest
i can garante every older brother relates to this song in a way, wanting to protect the small one, no matter the cost
five years later and this is still an absolute masterpiece to the undertale community. Both the art and the song are amazing and incredible
I love how @Starimation used the “papyrus gets confused trying to solve a horoscope” joke
I never even noticed the detail!
haha your right 😂😂😂😂
Heh yea
hah that's a tiny detail that almost no one noticed

I never thought I'd cry for a skeleton but here we are

Same but for two skeletons🖤
Here we go again
@Janna ten Hagen hasnt everyone
I know 20,655 comments is a lot to manage, but I remember watching this when I was much younger, and much more sensitive. I watched this over and over, with tears in my eyes every single time. Watching this back 5 years later, really brings nostalgia back to me. I remember sharing this with my friend too, and they also felt the exact same way. I just wanted to thank you for making this animation, and perfectly fitting Undertale into what was my childhood.
*Thank you, Starimation.*
P.S.
(2:51) Me and my friend always thought the line "from my endless heartbeat" was "to my headless Barbie" and even though we were crying, we burst out laughing everytime. Thanks again ❤
I still can’t stop watching this it’s so good for sans and anything else and so sad….
But remember we’re the ones who caused this…. We’re the ones who caused his pain…. We picked the genocide route…
This is *amazing* it really shows sans and papyrus relationship 👍👍👍
A true deep siblings kind of relationship
Like if you would fight for your sibling
Edit:(who else watched this over and over and over again)
I watched it over and over :D
Me, I love this song Im trying to learn how to sing it. its just so good!!
Me
I may hate them but inside me I do care about them and if I have to die for them I will
(Edit: I keep on repeating it again and again it's so addictive)
Me
Me: Watching this on 2020.
Not even 5 second.
Me: Balling my eyes out.
Oh same
me too
Same
Mhm-
Me too
this hits so fucking hard nostalgia its even hard to do genocide without feeling bad for sans and the other monsters
A monument to simpler times in the fandom; better times.
It’s a shame that the original cover is no longer accessible, but this video definitely keeps it’s memory well kept,
Great video, I’ve probably ugly cried at this video like 3 times in my time in the fandom, lmao
I’m NoT CrYiNg YoU ArE.
“Loud crying in background”
Me too *sniff*
:c
I cry every single time I watch this 😭😭
How did you know?! "Silently crying"
You're correct, I am
Sans: Melt away with tears
Me: Mr Starimation I don't feel so good
Did thanos snap his fingers?
U GET TO THE WRONG PLACE .GO BACK TO SQUIDTALE
@@goldengamer081 do you mean Chara/Frisk?
I'm 18 years old. I used to have this friend that I've known for about 5 to 6 years now. It ended up shifting into a situation where I wanted to be more than friends. She made me happy. Never failed to put a smile on my face. Every second with her brought out the little kid inside me. Made me feel whole. But she saw me more as a brother rather than a lover. It pushed her away. I was broken. I couldn't sleep. I refused to eat. The memories replaying in my head like a broken record player to this day. This song was, is, and always will be one of my few reasons to keep going. Although I've never seen her face, I was given two things to remember her from. Her milk chocolate brown hair and her dark emerald green eyes. The sound of her voice is lost to my ears. I'd give the world to hear her laugh just one more time..
Five years later this song and this animation and everything about this still makes me cry. One of the best undertale songs ever made, truly. It isn't a parody or a silly giddy but it cuts deep and you can feel the emotion from the singer. The lyrics are so thought out and beautiful. I cry everytime i hear "As long as I can hold your hand, again and again." It gets me every fucking time.
Everyone talking about the animation but I’m over here like, “I NEED THIS ON SPOTIFY WTF”
You can put it on loop in PC.
I KNOW RIGHT
@@supernova.coz.9375 :T
FACTs
RIGHT?!
When it says “goodbye a broken heart” that when the feels hit
*very hard*
One of the best animations of the fandom by far. This will never not be hitting hard. Actually cried to this in 2022 and before, great work!
Responding everytime I watch/listen to this ×1
@@VeryangstyteenagerI'd be at 30 within just this month 💀
This made me cry so much because it reminded me about how sad the genocide route really was and the fact chara just kills because they can and absolutely just breaking sans. This was such a good animation and really highlighted that aspect of the game
I hope I'm not the only person who cried, replayed an cried again
The animation is so smooth and the singing has so much emotion
I agree
Top 3 best sans animations that are also actually songs:
3. Judgement
2. Determination
1. Close to you
I hope you check out all of those songs! :3
I did tho
I cry so much my sister cal me cry Baby
I literally cried and I keep seeing in when I watch a video
All of us just HAD to come back to watch it another dozen times, right?
Yes
20 time to day
Been here since it first came out and still can't get enough.
When u up at 3 in the morning to hear this
@@charaglitchwitch674 u up 3 in the morning just to listen to this just like me🙋
I remember when this song came out was one of the first times i slept in my home alone whitout parents and then bcs of this video i began crying and they had to come home early-
Abselutly astonishing even after these 5 years
If anyone is still listening to this just know I'm with you in the nostalgia
I'm here!
I'm here too!
I listened to this song the day after my great grandpa passed this song is one of the few things that helped me keep me together
Whenever I see a bully I think of Flowey
Whenever I’m welcomed into something I think of Toriel
Whenever I tell a joke I think of Sans
Whenever a friend looks out for me I think of Papyrus
Whenever I’m cooking I think of Undyne
Whenever I see someone famous I think of Mettaton
Whenever I go to science class I think of Alphys
Whenever I find someone to be loyal I think of Asgore
Whenever I hangout with my friends I think of asriel
And whenever These all happen in one day, I think of Frisk.
A true Undertale fan won’t copy and paste this, but they will know what it’s like...
Oh hey sans liked my comment!
What the....why are people actually liking this, it’s super cringe
Idk why but this comment made me sad, but its a good sadness
100+ people liked your comment,one of them is me,i know you dont care but this comment almost made me cry and now i legit am gonna think of it forever,and im gonna say a deltarune version
Whenever i see a bully,i think of susie
Whenever i get welcomed,i think of ralsei
Whenever im just having good laughs with my friend i think of jevil
Whenever i see my loyal dog,i think of lancer
Whenever i am doing a test or school,i dont think of having partners,i think of ralsei helping me
Whenever i all this happens in a day i think of kris.
Sorry its short

Balling my eyes out
GOD DANMIT
THE FEELINGS MAN
WHY
im with you bro
IM CRYING TO
Tiago Galarza I’m so glad I did the pacifist route
Yes u are but crying to
After? Me only at the 36th second
this aged extremely well, I remembee humming this in 6th grade all the time. no way im already in 10th grade. Ill be honest, this song really changed me somehow, thank you for making this amazing video. I dont think id be who i am now without seeing this, I mean that literally
SAMEEE
Y'know, this makes me regret doing genocide after seeing all the hurt and pain and tears... From now on, I will do pacifist over and over and over again, I don't want to do genocide... And if I ever decide to do genocide, I will look at this and tell myself the hurt and pain I will inflict.. AND ART WAS AMAZING BTW, good job m8
Edit: Well, umm, I forgot about this vid and I have done.... shamelessly, 6 genocide routes.... ugh, I swear with my self at night, saw ths and remebered this, ugh, and Undertale doesnt work anymore so umm..... I can't fix that.....
Edit 2: Geez I forgot about this lol Ive got Undertale working again and Ive done my true pacifist route and left the game alone. Although this might be a simple game to others, this has surprisingly helped me through my life in more ways than one and I cant thank this game and Toby enough for how much it has helped me through while I feel like this game also has its deeper meanings, like how even when we cant change the past we can still try and make things better in the future and how our actions can still hurt others.
And also, may I say, amazing animation here that you have, I aspire to be as great of an animator as you one day, despite still being in middle school and you also probably not checking the comments under this considering how old this is lol but I hope you continue your animations and continue the amazing work that you have here!
**says something emotional**

Lovely
Poor sans ;(
:c
Panda toy Fun why’d I laugh at that?-
You have an incredible natural talent for choreography/action scenes!!
The whole thing is amazing and I can see all the love you put into each scene. I can easily see why it took you a year and a half to finish this piece, everything flows really smoothly! Awesome job!

@@PaperDoodlrs this video especially is just too powerful. The emotional aspect of sans is not really portrayed. Just his sheer power. But he’s just… ridiculously sad in this.
I accidentally clicked on this video when I was scrolling through my recommended.

IM BACK FROM 2023 GUYS THIS SONG WILL NEVER GET OLD AND WILL KEEP ME CRYING
This is my main source for nostalgia. Thank you.

Dess Nugget it’s amazing how Toby fox made these characters have actual lives they live and when you reset they remember which is why I don’t do genocide it makes me feel sad
im not that stupid
After 5 years…. I finally found this and everything is the same as I remember it… beautiful 😢
Maturing is realizing this song is sad as hell😭
lyrics:
The flowers of the new
The laughter of the past
they're beautiful like you,the beauty unsurpassed
Gone with a whisper,you fall asleep like death
Breaking though the earth,you smile shines again
CLOSE TO YOU
My empty gratitude,another empty thank you
I finally learnt regret,from words I've always said
Never meant to speak to hurt,yet it hurts to put in words
Goodbye wherever you are,
Goodbye unbroken heart
In truth i want to feel
The truth I want to see
I'm trying to embrace your drifting heart and SMILE!
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes
I keep on looking forward at you hoping
That your light will never pass me by
I wonder what the stars that sparkle in your eyes are hiding from my mind
Hiding from my open heart and from your hopeing heart
Together,you and I will always be alive,connected close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again,
Forever,I will find my way
You may never answer back my call,but you smile back at me with grace
And everything remains the same,this pain I'll awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears
A shape of broken line
Will never be the same
It'll never find new life as a body of remains
A soul without a form,endlessly It'll chase
But will my broken heart find another place?
In truth i want to feel
The truth I'll never see
I'm trying to erase how far we've walked in MILES!
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears as I look up at the sky
I keep on looking forward at it hoping that
I'll find you soon enough in time
I wonder if the stars that sparkle in my eyes will eventually subside
Hiding from my endless heartbeat,from my endless heartbeat
Together,you and I will always be alive
committed,close to you I'll stay
As long as I can hold your hand again and again,then maybe I will find the way
I can never travel back in time,but the smile back at me,those day
And everything remains the same,this pain I'll soon awake from
What I see will melt all away
With my tears
Replaying time again,replaying time again
Repeating time again,repeating time again
Reflected in my heart,reflected in my heart
Your never-ending LAUGHTER
Papyrus...
Whenever I begin to feel the burning tears
*SLASH HIT*
CAN you feel the burning tears overflowing from my eyes?!
I keep on looking forward at you hoping that in time your linght will pass me by
Now I know the stars that sparkle in your eyes are guiding me to light
Guiding to my open heart and to your open heart
Together,you and I will always be alive,connected close to you I'll stay
Time will never hold my tears or hold my feels down they pour like silent rain
All the colors forming back the life I knew when all remained the same
Somehow in a finite time,
this time i'l find my way out
And I see I barely reached you
And your heart
*wind/death noise*

@@megawonszrzeczny9 umm I thinks you just typed the same things twice

I remember when I accidentally clicked on this looking at undertake memes. 4 years past of listening to this and it's still one of my favourite songs! Thank you for the nostalgia and emotions you've made me feel from this.
back again
Still after this years the fandom wont die what a warrior yall are still fan of this
sans wearing Papyrus’ scarf breaks my heart
Also, this is one of my favorite Undertale animations ever, great job!
Same
Yeah, same.
Yeah
Arceus [////////////////] 0 hp heart has been shattered
SAME =)
Every undertale fans has been through this phase:
*feeling guilty after killing monsters in genocide route.*
*i have never done genocide ever*
*actually I’ve never actually killed a Monster I just do pacifist*
Did anyone else reset after killing Papyrus or Toriel? I know I sure did, I felt real guilt for some reason XD
Sometimes i can look at papyrus’s death and feel nothing and other times i wanna cry
that’s why i don’t do genocide
I never finished the genocide route. I killed papyrus and cried.
Sad fact - if how many people watched / views this is how many times sans die
Or how many time we see him die
Because we reset his timeline/video so we just saw him die again.
But still this is a masterpiece.
I cried AGAIN. Wow, the feelings and emotions I legit feel within sans are so freaking unexplainable. I can feel it all! It’s so wonderful yet it’s sadly the truth.
Me: **Turns on subtitles**
Subtitles: Disclaimer stuff *you can read on your own*
Me: Oof
I miss when the fandom was this big. It was such. A good fandom. I wish it came back..
i hate to kill the mood, but it was never a good fandom. this is just one of the good things we got, despite a sea of amazing things.
but the state it is now?
DELTARUNE FANDOM, BABYYYYYYYYY
HELL YEAH
SO MUCH BETTER
@@alexandergazmen3126 yeah Deltarune Fandom somehow came back to life but yeah undertale is long gone
Undertale's fandom, the bad and the good, has faded away. However, it will always be in our hearts. It may be good to reflect on the past, but sometimes we need to live in the present and look to the future. Deltarune, despite only having 2 parts finished, has gathered a fandom just as large if not larger already. Looking back at the past is always a good thing, but sometimes you need to just stop and look to the future as everyone remembers Undertale. We look to Deltarune. Spamton's become more popular than sans at this point. Is that a bad thing? Depends on who you ask. One thing I can say for sure though is that Toby Fox has sparked many great things. One was the good part of Undertale's fandom with the creation of Undertale. The next is Deltarune's great fandom. Thank you for reading this entire paragraph if you did, and I hope you're having just as good a time playing Deltarune as you did playing Undertale.
im still in the fandom. have been from the start of it. Dont worry, between people like us, the fandom will never die, no matter how small it gets! i share your fears on it dieing out, as all things do, but dont dwindle on the future. We cannot do much to change the future, or the past, and must instead just enjoy it as it is, and reflect on how it's grown! How it started as a lone game, and has now turned into such works of art like this! the game itself was a proper work of art, and instead of wishing for what the fandom should be, we should be happy with how it is! it could have been worse, and as time goes on it may get worse, but for now we can just sit back and marvel at such works like this, mirrors that reflect the brilliant story of the game, and introduce new people into the fandom who may want to try out the game themselves. dont let people get you down! it was a great fandom based off a thrilling story of gain, loss, and regretting the past. Such rare and beautiful works of art like this are hard to come by, and we should just be thankful we got to see the grow of this one. have a nice day!
You made me cry-
This Just Hits Hard on how we are supposed to treat our siblings We Protect them no matter what happens

Seeing that in the flashback thing when he says "connected" the scarf is long, papys scarf looks ripped, and the scarf length seems to change, id like to think that papys scarf gets shorter with every genocide run until theres nothing left of it.
wow thats an amazing detail
2023 anyone?? Gotta keep the memories and the lore alive 🙂

yea
Yes, Sans has at least one defense, but he knows how to dodge.And the animation is very high quality the best work I've seen.
