OPEN UP YOUR EYES | svtfoe (animatic)

- So, after three weeks of daily and continuous work, I made my first animatiс about Meteora's story.
The idea originated long ago, so that not everything conforms to the canon and I changed some moments to please my black fantasy (I just couldn't help but draw Septarsis in my first animatic).
Doing it was fun, but I can't say that I'm satisfied with the result.
Strange faces, changing style and skill...However, I will continue to develop the drawing animatics skill. I liked to doing it and in animatics I can show my AU stories.
I hope you enjoy!

I've just realised why castles are so big it's so whenever someone break's into song nobody else can hear them
And large rooms like that would echo and make the voices sound haunting
Well... fantasy castles, sure. Real ones are both expensive and functional.
Nice theory dude
I would say its a good theory of why the castles are big
Yes
To me, the way this is set up, it makes Meteora seem like Star's aunt, who was the rightful heir. She's trying show Star what the world is like and trying to prepare her, in a way.
jagirl966
I hope someone makes a FanFiction of that idea
That a good thinking!
I mean you ain’t wrong
I was trying to figure out who she was, I recognized Star but had next to no clue who is supposed to be singing is.
Isnt she like her step grandma or something?
It would be so easy to convince someone that this was a deleted song
yeah, I tricked myself like this into watching the whole damn series and then be disappointed. learned my lesson about reading Yt descriptions.
StarVs is not bad, just not what I expected/wanted. Sigh.
@@HisameArtwork me too especially the Tom/star/Marco part i was like wtf ans didn't how understant why star realm is still connected with tom's but not her other hairy Friends
@@fandemanga3378 I don't like the fact that star got rid of magic it's not right
@@Zoey-zj3fw me too man, me too, but i accept it as one of the differents possible ending they coul have chose but it seemed so rushed, it's such a BIG decision with so many consequence not only to her realm. But they didn't really exploit it and focused on her wtf ending with Marco . ughhh, donc get me wrong, even though i'm tomstar shipper, i would have accepted it if it was happening naturaly and logically, but with all we have seen since season one, tom choosing to break up with strar was one of the most wtf think happening in the serie, especially when he was like "yeah you love him, go out with him'' O.o. just some épisode ago we got to see star doing much than two season to be with you, Tom presenting their couple as a second mewman/ Monster relationship like eclipsa /globgor, for the rest of their specie so they can live together too. WHAAAT????WHY??! That's why i have one advice too that sort on think. If you want a ship to happened in the serie, pls, don't do things that would make them not happen normaly
So back to the subject, sorry i kind of get distracted thinking of that....so me too, destroying the realm of Magic juste like that..... Killing people without their consent(the rest of the Magic council, and many specie we don't know like the people that live in hekapoo's realm) and destroying a way of life juste like that, along with your famille ability because well, Monster have still their power....there isn't a balance anymore... It would have been great if they could have think longer about that in the serie and see some of the After life . And why the •••• did her realm fused with marco's. They should have been destroyed but anyway. Her realm and Tom are still connected... Marco's fused, but not her hairy friend.... Why??? How is Pony tail still floating even though there isn't Magic anymore and then her dépression without et horn doesn't really count anymore since nobody can use Magic anymore.....
But i think, basing myself on glossaryck line, maybe it will be back since he said he can't die, but we will never know
Sorry for the mistake i speak french(edit: i tried correct my mistake, auto correct doesn't help here)
@@fandemanga3378 I appreciate you taking the time out of your life to write this and for that I totally support your opinion
"Face it Star; friendship has failed you."

That moment you realize this is way better than what we actually got
True, yet sad...
Facts I'm still crusty about it
@@Oop68 Crusty 😭 I’m going to start saying that.
REAL.
Me sleeping peacefully:
My alarm clock at 7:30am: *OPEN UP YOUR EYEEEEEEESSSSS*
Lol
Anna-Hien Pham what a underrated comment
My mom at 7:30 am: OPEN UP YOUR EYES YOU WILL BE LATE TO THE BUS.
Me: mooom the bus doesn't get here till 8:20 what is the meaning of this. Let me sleep.
Bruh my bus comes at 6 am xD
Me: Shut up
Alarm: Open up you-
Me: Shuttup
Alarm: Open-
Me: Shhhh
Alarm: *OPEN UP YOUR GODDAMN EYEEEEESS*
Me: OK, sheesh, i'll get up
From my point of view, I’d like to believe she’s doing this all to protect Star.
That's the impression I got too.
Same
Your likes
She hates star because she’s not even a real princess lol
... When I heard this song I couldn't believe this came from a MLP movie, or even related. It sounds like a litteral Villain Theme Song from DISNEY itself- I wonder if anyone else thought that!?
Also, fantastic animatic! :D You've earned a sub!
My Little Pony has the most amazing popcultured music ever!! Sia sang the Rainbow song and it sounds very mainstream. Also the Magic Inside Of Me.
Wait what
Various people commented that the song felt a lot like a classic Disney villain song.
It's sung by Tempest Shadow, the villain of the MLP movie.
I'm an MLP fan but it took me a bit to place the song, I was thinking Disney at first xD Then "Me among the mighty" provided a spark of recognition, and shortly after that I remembered Fizzlepop Berry Twist...
I knew it was mlp because i watched the movie right when it was on dvd xd if I did 't i wouldn't have believed it though
*birdbox*
Yes. Open your eyes it’s beautiful.
Hahahahahahahah, nice one!🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I saw that movie, though....it was suspenseful and had me hooked!👍👍👍
-You're gonna die if you take that off.- ITS BEAUTIFUL OPEN UP YOUR EYES!
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING
Delylah22 X 😂😂😂😂😂
Yea
Toffee and Rasticore look so majestic with the flying dragons above. I always wondered if the septarians are related to dragons. They are pretty much immortal, like dragons.
Yula568 I agree
I always saw komodo dragons when I looked at them.
I just can't stop watching the scene, it's so beautiful
It's confirmed Mewmans were humans who fell into a magic well, so how did the monsters come to be?
Vedji they might have already been there
Wow ! It's incredible! I would like to see the complete finished animation. I know this is very difficult.
its Greek and translates to Uh you! This is incredible
It's Russian and it translates into "Wow ! It's incredible"??
Could also be ‘fuck you’ tho
@@crook_productions5524 Is praise a checkmate? Kind of weird..
No, I'm not swearing, why do I need this? I like animatic.
@@StudioStellapresents it was a joke sorry- i never said you swore nor do i think you need to, just my humor sorry
I feel like this can be an AU where Meteora had actually experienced joy at a young age, and monsters were accepted. But then, a human prince who despised monsters created a rumor that would end this peaceful era. Meteora was forced unto hiding with her uncle who was known as Toffee, unfortunately, her mother couldn't survive the attack. The said human prince eventually became the king of Mewni, fast forward time and now we have Star. Meteora starts a revolution and takes over the throne, in which Moon fully accepted and supported. Meteora's reign was peaceful, she restored the peace with monsters and assigned Toffee to become her general. Not having any heir to the throne, Meteora whole heartedly accepted Star, even tho she was strongly against her behavior. As soon as the wand gets passed to Star, Meteora sends her to earth with hopes of Star becoming better. Meteora then offers to pass the throne to Moon, wanting to start a school for unruly princesses and live a quiet life. Moon hesitantly accepts and becomes queen once again. While this is all happening, Star and Marco become official. A month after this Mewni gets attacked by the vain human prince and in the process gets Moon trapped in an unknown dimension. Meteora takes the throne and begins preparations for the final war against the prince. Star protests against this war and tries to convince Meteora to make an agreement of peace instead, Meteora then decides to teach Star a lesson, thus this song and animatic :PPP
Edit: for those who want me to write this as a fan fic, I'll add to my list haha
Yesha Yap this would have been an amazing story line ❤️
This would be an amazing AU
This. This is *way* better than the actual show
make this a fanfic PLEASE
@@sunshinelunaeclipse2853 I would, but I dunno who would read it 😔
Not gonna lie I kinda wish that had been Meteora's backstory 🤷🏻♀️
Here real story is still pretty sad
Being thrown out if your home and not allowed to use your birth Privilege then also having your real parents crystalised and trained to become a cruel and heinouss creature that takes freedom of others
Meteora not mother star
@@jakoblent4694 dont forget becoming a youth sucking villain.
Yass
Same morning tea would spill in the show
_tbh your backstory is much cooler_
Depressed Optimist agreed
yes
Depressed Optimist yeah
Agreed, her story in canon was kinda meh, this would have been cooler.
Hell yeah, I don't dislike the show one, but I feel that with this one the final confrontation would be more exciting.
Likely an unpopular opinion but honestly I think this would have been a better overall storyline for SVTFOE from the meteora arc and onward. (At least the toffee story line wouldn’t have been left as a loose end.)
Best option on this comment section
Oh believe it its not unpopular
"better than the current ending" is a low bar to say the least
Never realized how well this song fits Meteora, especially compared to Tempest.
On reflection, it's a punch to the stomach to remember how funny we thought it was to watch her lose her mind.
This song fits meteora more than it fit tempest lol
Meteora took tragic villains to a horrific degree.
See, not even MLP is all sunshine and rainbows
Reminds me of G1, where the typical serial starts out like that, before getting dark at some point in the first part, and then it usually had added darkness because the people making it didn’t think it through. Or maybe they did and just snuck it past the censors? The adult Seaponies stopped appearing at about the same time of The Magic Coins, when the drought from Baby Lickery Split’s wish for just sunshine dried out all the rivers, and it’s explicitly stated that they’re working to protect the Baby seaponies, with no mention of the adult ones… the Doylist reasoning is that they just stopped making adult ones, but the Watsonian… not so pretty. Also, Applejack killed a man. (Applejack’s Amazing Adventure)

Yeah I was almost shocked by how dark the movie got
nah, those rainbows just end up blowing you to pieces or turning you to stone. TASTE THE FREAKIN RAINBOW!!!!!
Yeah lol
It’s funny watching this now meteora has changed so much 😂
Hahahah yeah
she's literally a babie
She is "little one" now
Star took away her chances of ever being Queen. Now meterora can be discriminated without magic. :D
Soooo much!
Meteora's story is an actually problem because of how people quickly judges people of how they look and act. I was abused occasionally because of my addiction with gaming and how I was so fat, they manipulated me turning me into a skinny girl who barely could run without getting a sprained leg. I'm going through therapy right now and I hope that no one is going through this problem and be strong and love yourself no matter what. :D
You shouldn't be judged for something you love and you shouldn't be judged for being fat. That's just bullshit. I hope you're doing better now
Have a heart. ❤
I like how Star’s face is so round and childish while M ( I forgot her name), her face is more mature. It shows the maturity level in animation. Star being naïve and M having seen so many things, has matured.
meteora
The part where Meteora flings the curtain open and where butterfly sees the army marching outside the window. It packs a punch and is my favorite part!! This whole animation, although unrefined , leaves you to fill in the unfinished places and admire the beauty of it in a new way, it's refreshing. Thank you Jeykeyblue.
Adriel Ting that is true !! I liked that part from the first time i watched this animatic
You mean star

Me too since i really find it unfair and illogical the way they forced star to break up with Tom and begins dating Marco, especially when you take the time to think about all the effort Tom did for her
Star used to be one of my favorite shows, but seasons 3 and specially 4 were just... So bad. It gets even worse when you find out that Daron had nothing planned from the begging, they just went creating stuff as they went.
I am confused what this animatic represents. Is toffee still alive?
@@User-ww3oj Nope. Fan fiction. In this one, I believe Meteora didnt lose her memories and ally with Toffe while waiting for the right moment.
Same here.
Ya know this would be a really good song for Azula from atla saying this to Zuko. Just imagine.
Yep that would be A W E S O M E!!!
Yes but it would have to be more condescending and sarcastic. This comes across as caring
What about Cassandra saying it to Kairi or Sora
@@foxx121 wasn’t it kind of that in The MLP movie
YES YES YES 👏🏻
The story I’m seeing here? Meteora’s mother, Eclipsa, had raised her a good memorable years before Shastican led an army of haters to get Meteora. Eclipsa had taken Meteora and sent her away for her safety, only to be imprisoned. Meteora grew hateful, and she began to plan the rebellion. Meteora had wanted to convey to Star the pain she felt from that and to get Star to realize Mewni isn’t going to change easily, and that Meteora actually didn’t want to get Star hurt, since Star tried helping the monsters. Meteora just wanted to Open Star’s Eyes to the truth as Meteora took the throne of Mewni, at last becoming her true self - the monster that the people feared unreasonably. A hurt creature done with their hurt.
Ari the Ram Shepherd of Mars Yes!!!
I agree
Ari the Ram Shepherd of Mars, I so understand this. Meteora just wants to take back what was taken from her all those years ago. I can also see Star joining sides with Eclipsa and Meteora.
Ari the Ram Shepherd of Mars
Yes, technically a (Mewni) version of "Daughter of Evil".....
It's a Vocaloid thing....
The supposed lost princess is raised in isolation from the one she loves the most being taken from her... & due 2 the years that passed by as she grows up w/o that person she grows bitter towards the world & becomes the monster that everyone fears.....
Julissa Heredia
So TRUE! I mean she IS the REBEL PRINCESS!

koolitsart :D The movie is actually pretty good. MLP has an odd reputation to people who think it's all about happy ponies and constant "powers of friendship". Sure, friendship is a part of it- but when isn't that part of good shows aimed at a younger audience?
when Toffee shows up ( 2:27 ) he looks soooooo flipping cute and a bit hot, you drew everyone and everthing so well! tbh this is the best animatic ive seen in SOOO long! keep up the good work!!!!!

Example: Toffee, Rasticore, Professor Venomous(OK K.O) & Elias Ainsworth(The Ancient Magus Bride)
But that's just my thoughts are
HOLY FRICKING GOD
*METEORA FITS THIS SONG SO DAMN GOOD, but I really wish this was canon*
Im surprized people consider Meteora and Eclipsa to be the villains of svtfoe. All things considered, King Shastacan is mostly to blame since he threw away Meteora since she wasn't "perfect" enough. Can you blame Eclipsa for cheating on a guy like that?
Did eclipsa even choose that guy or was he chosen for her?
The king genuinely love Eclipsa but it was love one sided. That's why he let Meteora alive and instead exchange her with Solaria her being as half monster, her face reminded too much of his wife and he's still a human. But still, doesn't mean I like him.
@@wickie-search the guy was a total creep though and in the book of spells it was obvious he only wanted her for the title and sex
@@jamesrogers6779 He's indeed in love with Eclipsa. If he did only chase after the title and sex, Meteora would've gone long ago.
No i dont blame her
I love this backstory of hers much better than the original one, no offense to the canon Meteora in the svtfoe, but this just looks and sounds more dramatic and devastating, plus i love the way Toffee was included into this, i like to think that he and Meteora were planning to take over the kingdom. It might go something like this *ahem*: Meteora a royal princess scorned and shunned by her own people for being the daughter of a monster is being chased away from her homeland, the poor princess watched her mother being taken away from her for only marrying someone who was different and having a child with him, and thus her hatred for the people who caused a lot of anguish and agony for her and her family was born. Forced to grow up and survive all by herself she hid herself and made up a new name "Heinous", a name suitable for the actions of the people who teared her life apart. Her lust for vengeance against the injustice she suffered kept her alive all these years, and a fateful encounter with Toffee set up the wheels of motion for Meteoras plan to take back what was rightfully hers again, her throne, her kingdom, and her revenge...
Jun Taiohara so much this! I loved the way Toffee looks in this too and I don't know why! Lol
Silurian F I know right? It would have been cool seeing him involved in the plot of Eclipsa and Meteoras arc, if anything i have small hope that he'd be revived for the next seasons seeing that Eclipsas husband will come back.
I’m pretty sure that that’s Rasticore…
Rune Anonymous Good catch! The first lizard is definitely Toffee but I didn't notice the second one with the spear which is Rasticore. I was thinking that he should have been in there and sure enough!
Rune Anonymous The first one is Toffee
damn... this has a better plot than a real svtfoe

Alright. I saw the song title and thought, "Yes. Let's see." After watching, I thought, "YES! This is Awesome!!" I love it from beginning to end! The ending was best, Meteora turning into her monster form. Sister took the throne. I could seriously see that happening if the show went in that direction. And I want people to be perfectly honest... Who got chills when Meteora opened the window. And who started crying when Meteora dropped her doll?! I was like, "OH! The doll!" Heartbreaking part, Eclipsa and Meteora separation. Meteora awakening her inner monster. I think I would have liked to see the green flames move and see that fat king burn to a crisp. Other than that... This is a work of art. I try to imagine it in color, and not saying it wouldn't work, but this is so much better. If you have seen another video called "Persephone", you would understand why this style is absolutely the best!! th-cam.com/video/vPGOkziFRS4/w-d-xo.html BRAVO!!
Dee Dee G , bro I got the chills, I was holy shit
The scene where she opens up the window combined with the music drop makes it seem just majestical and royal
i think ide rather see what happens if that fat king survives the fire, and seeks revenge. he totally had that sort of look on his face
Honestly the only song I liked in that pretty meh movie. I like this use of it to tell Meteora, the flashback backstory feels more fitting.
GSDA
True
meh movie?!
Pheebs A It was heavily flawed in what it wanted to do. The movie only had to be semi competent and instead they overcomplicate it. The story is similar to a typical old movie outline like Don Bluths work, but done messy.The problem comes it tried merging various story archetypes such as the main team meeting 1 new character that ends being traitor before redeeming (which could also be the henchman villain), the 1 main character meeting multiple characters story, and the infighting characters. We know the main characters so they introduce multiple new characters that don't get enough screen time to properly develop. Instead it's a rush to a new bland song over any real character development of the new characters. The cat and the pirates should've just been one character, a captain with his crew that sells the ponies out. The villain builds up like she's taking the power for herself and trusts no one, and then becomes the dumbest character by trusting the storm king for plot reasons of not being the real villain and redemption. They couldn't stick to a single basic story format of the "journey not the destination" and ended up meshing too many tropes in this outline together.
I thought it was just a rehash of Season 4 (esp the finale) crammed together with different characters. I'm digging its integration into Season 8 though.
In my case, my general complaint is that I didn't really like how the movie feels like a bunch of different franchises/universes crammed together in Equestria, not to mention the rehash of the Tirek story among other nitpicks...
This is actually a well-thoughtout and largely true message
Irl.
the fact that I relgiously watch this fan animatic and see this as cannon
no one will EVER convince me that this isnt cannon

I can’t forget this animatic. The expression she makes at 2:45 conveys so much grief and sorrow when she stares into the throne that was stolen from her family. SO SO GOOD
I wish Disney would make a prequel to Alice in Wonderland surrounding the queens backstory. Sort of a "Wicked" musical take on the villain.
For a moment I thought this was legitimate Disney pre-movie sketches, I actually googled for the movie. Excellent job!
this is not of Alice xd
But yeah, is very good
Don't wish anything from Disney, or you will get cultural enrichment again.
There’s a book called Heartless with a similar premise about the Queen of Hearts childhood. It’s really good
Didn't they go into the Queen's backstory in through the looking glass?
@@darkspaces5776 that was the red queen
Guess the High Commission screwed up real badly. They truly brought the monster out in Meteora. Had they left it be, Meteora wouldn't have been this ferocious with pent up anger and everything having been lied to and locked out of Mewni's history of the butterflies. So this anamatic just fits well with the story tbh. Wonderful job
Did anyone notice that Toffee is really handsome (or that just my thought ;-;) in here?

Lyrics :
It's time you learned a lesson
It's time that you understand
Don't ever count on anybody else
In this or any other land
I once hoped for friendship
To find a place among my kind
But those were the childish wishes
Of someone who was blind
Open up your eyes
See the world from were I stand
Me among the mighty
You caged at my command
Open up your eyes
Give up your sweet fantasyland
It's time to grow up and get wise
Come now little one
Open up your eyes
We all start out the same
With simple naïve trust
Shielded from the many ways
That life's not fair or just
But then there comes a moment
A simple truth that you must face
If you depend on others
You'll never find your place
And as you take that first step
Upon a path that's all your own
You see it all so clearly
The best way to survive is all alone
Open up your eyes
And see the world from where I stand
Me among the mighty
You caged at my command
Open up your eyes
And behold the fading light
It's time to grow up and get wise
Come now little one
Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes
I saw this and now i can't unseen the idea that Meteora easily looks related to Hisoka from hunter x hunter. idk tho, cause of the eyes, and face, and marks... plus they both rock higs heels
...This surprisingly fits Meteora
WriterGamer J I know right?

Damn, if this were Meteora's backstory, people would be rooting for her to win cause she's basically taking back her kingdom from the people who's relatives killed her family.
Your art style is so majestic and smooth!! This is also my first comment :))))) I love the story and you have a new subscriber ;)
Elizabeth Solidum I love this story! The animation, so beautiful and flowed so grandly with the audio of the song!
Ari the Ram Shepherd of Mars totally totally totally :D
If this was in the actual show I would be wondering what Star would be like after the song because it looked she was actually thinking that Meteora was right. That would be an epic plot twist.
Charles Griesel yeah that would be awesome and intense..
I feel like she's definitely a lot more sympathetic, and that she was somewhat correct, but lashing out against other people. That said, she would probably try to talk her down, and probably have more luck. She'd probably give her the throne, with some concessions.
This song works so much better in this context because Meteora actually has a real reason to be feeling this way, being a half-monster many would assume is just a monster out to get them trying to blend in and spy or eat their babies or something equally evil to them.
Tempest decided to not go to a hospital with the snapped off piece of horn to try and get it fixed, or at least keep it from exploding every time she tries to use magic, and scared off all her friends because she was actually a danger to them and got so upset that she ran away and became sasuke but a horse.
Chim- Chim True.
It's implied that the horn was irreparable. We haven't seen, in-show, a pony with a horn prosthesis/repair.
I suspect that the injury, and subsequent rejection, caused her to suffer from Cutie Mark Failure Insanity syndrome,
Unicorns often have a high standing in society. A Unicorn without a horn is nothing, it's like they have lost all purpose in life. She wasnt able to control her magic anymore, and even small outbursts of anger could trigger her horn into doing god knows what kind of damage. She could have endangered others. So she became an outcast, nobody wanted to have anything to do with her. This is why she so desperately wanted it to be fixed, so she could be normal again.
You realise the show just expects you to be intelligent enough to realise that going to the hospital wouldn't have fixed it, right? They shouldn't have to SHOW that for you to understand it.This is why we can't have nice things; human beings are idiots.
Also, she was a child. You're seriously victim blaming a CHILD right now?
2:27 I'm just living for this shot of toffee like he is the best don't @ me
Nah, I'm with you (~'w'~)
Ive seen this so many times and i havent even watched the show, its just that good. Anyway i just noticed that at 2:39 the club behind her makes it look like she has the same hairstyle as her mom
2:28 WHY AM I SUDDENLY ATTRACTED TO THIS STUNNING FIGURE OF TOFFEE
Cider Ambers
Cause Toffee is the best character
:3
Nope cause he have a hot body
Both. Both. Both is good.
Mathilde Blancho yup
I am impressed with the backstory and effort placed into an awesome animatic like this. A family torn apart in an unimaginable way..
Encore, encore! Continue this amazing project!!
Alex Kensington you could say that again
Tis a story already made , Eclipsa and her daughter star vs the forces of evil
Alex Kensington You spoke in Franglish ?
I speak french
Oui oui je suis francaise et j'ai pu comprendre a peu pres la video grace au sous titre lol
No back story
You made the lizard villain guy kinda hot
This was awesome. It gave me chills when I watched this but tbh i wished that was Meteora's backstory instead, it makes so much sense
I SCREAM WHEN I SAW TOFFEE!!!! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL
Yeh he looked cool asf
Same, I literally died when I saw him
Iveth Villalobos i know it's beautiful
honestly this animatic and meteora's story fits the song more than tempest shadow's backstory and this video gave me chills while the original scene in the movie was a bit underwhelming, good job!
peepers I know right?
It's like watching a whole season that captures you in just 3:23 done better than most too.
When this shows the real world, nobody accepting people that are cast out of the norms
*2018*

This HAS to be one of the best animatics I've seen here on youtube. The characters, background, animation was all done so beautifuly. Not enough people put details in the background these days.
I've watched this animatic over 20 times and I still get goosebumps every time I watch it

The mothers voice matches the character so well I’m deceased
@Viktoria Kabanova oh😀
I am surprised that this video is not having a lot of likes !!! Your art style is very beautiful and on point ~ not to mention I am in love with how serious the characters look and their expressions and the song you picked is very awesome and does express the situation very well

Stop fucking spamming
XDD
Delete this.
(Jk. 😂😂😂
I was wishing that would happen the entire video tbh
Мурашки по всему телу, вот прям серьёзно... Это великолепно...
Очень четко подобрана песня и события
Она буквально передает эмоции персонажей
This song SLAPS THOO
Toffee and Rasticore! They look badass!
Fanof Whatever I know right?
Agreed!!
why does this fit beautifully? I'm so sad that this isn't cannon :(
OH, DAMNNN! THIS IS INCREDIBLE! I LOVE ITTT! I almost wish this was canon! DAMN! My FEEELS! The animation and direction are AMAZING! I LOVE how young and small Star looks, too! And DAMN, that backtsory for Meteora and Eclipsa! T__T BEAUTIFUL! LOVE this AU!
Is it just me or does it seem like Meteora in this was trying to take star under her wing and have her join instead of against her
Same
*sees video in feed* eh, it can't be that good
*clicks video cuz is bored* woah.... this is actually pretty well made
*sees curtain part* holy shit that's some smooth frame transition
*sees flashback* Oh ouch.... rip Meteora's childhood
*sees Toffee and has to cover nose from the blood* f-fuck....
*finishes the video and is shook as fuck* sweet mother of cheese sticks....... this is one hell of a fucking amazing animatic
*slams fist on like button and goes to clean blood from nosebleed*
*Edit:* I can't stop seeing this shit, I'm fucking hooked on this animatic and I love it XD
*sWEet moTHEr oF cHeESe stiCkS*
Mate, I clicked on this cause was it was in my recommended, did thirty seconds of investigating and found out I jammed to my little pony
THIS IS THE BEST EVER!
Your design of Meteora is absolutely beautiful, and the storyline is perfect! You're the one they need to be hiring for SVTOE!!
Daughter Of Effie Trinket ikr?
dont you just love when a fan made ending is acually better then the show's finale
I've watched this animatic for over a year now, and I keep coming back. And it's very recently that I understood why I love it so much. In a few words : the pain on the face of adult Meteora. She's standing strong through the whole song, yet that strength seems to slightly crack on a few moment where it's not about schooling Star but remembering the suffering she went through to get where she is now. I love how the expression match the voice crack in the throne room as we see that her warning is a genuine attempt to spare Star the pain she's been through herself and how, even after all those years, it still hasn't healed. These few minutes alone create a complex and fascinating character. Both severe, yet caring, unbreakable, yet hurt, uncompromising, yet understanding.
Toffee and Rasitcore as her generals 😦. Epic!
Meteora:Princess of Mewni, with no wand (barely holding laughter) and no way out.
Star:Why are you doing this? You're a Mewman, just like me.
Meteora:I'm nothing like you! I'm more than you will ever be.
(After the Song)
Star:I'm so sorry for what happened to you.
Meteora:I saw the truth. My subject abandoned me for being a monster. Looks like I'm not the only one.
Star:(Sadly turns away)
Meteora:Face it Princess, your subjects have failed you too.
Star:No. My subjects did not fail me. I've failed them.
...Fuck
Jarosław Sobiński this was just directly taken from mlp
did
did you just take that out of mlp?
Yes, I did. Kind of like the author of this animatic. Thanks for pointing it out Captain Obvious. XD
That's pretty good but I'm not sure Star would say that.
This is the crossover of the ages, great use of the song to convey so much emotion for Meteora.
Meteora looks so beautiful
The story in this is honestly far better than the show. Once the show's Hieness turned to Metora and came for the throne it was like a kid wanting her doll back. But here's the thing by that point Hieness was grown she was tactical, poised, and most importantly by her and the world's definition a perfectly fit ruler. Not the petty baby they turned her into to try and show the pain of her growing up with a robot( which they could have done better with as show by the scene were she looked at her files).
Also how was she able to remember anything before looking at the files SHE WAS A BABY?
Mmagic Probably one of her assistant the bald guy with the goggles probably told her or made a tech to hack the robot to see the memory files
TheShinyBlueWhale No no before that when they were in that room in the basement of the monster temple at the party. She just saw her baby toys and furniture and she instantly started remembering her true past despite being a baby at the times. I could understand her knowing about the files but how could she remember that room in that moment before seeing the files?
maybe her monster blood?
This actually is a lot more better and easier to understand than the cannon. How meteora used star’s kindness against her and pretended to only want her life back by telling her what happened while the kingdom was being taken over by rasticor and her robots
Vivalcil That's Toffee. But your right about everything else.
Vivalcil I know right?
why does it fit perfect
UGHHH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH BUT IT'S SO HEARTBREAKING POOR METEORA
Wow. This is an amazing animatic. And this song sounds like it's from a good play!
*googles the title*
*sees My Little Pony*
.....
Wat? O-o
Star DeStefano MLP is awesome.
It was the best song of the whole movie lol
The villain songs in mlp are actually great
Star DeStefano I was surprised too, I’ve never seen my little pony 😂😂😂
Star DeStefano I feel u😂
Holy crap! You did this solo! Seriously this is amazing and, keep at it! This could be career for you!!
This is amazing! The art and backstory for Meteora is incredible and I could watch this all day
Bro it's been so long since I heard this song and yet, it's still GOOD
Really love this, your art style is so detailed I especially love how you drew their eyes.
Really wish this was canon cuz it gives more understanding of Meteora's personality n her suffering as well as seeing Toffee as a loyal soldier/general to her instead of the canon detailed chessmaster villain though his personality wouldn't change much.
She never really knew her parents considering she was only a few months old when her family was attacked if she had been a young child who had fond n happy memories of her parents only to witness what happened to them would add more depth to her character.
Nice avatar you got there
+ heck No Thanks
TheatreLover I know right?
+Danidiva21 Lovernotafighter Really wish this was canon but least her family will be happy now hopefully
