I LOVE that we're keeping the trend alive where Poseidon just straight up bullies Odysseus. Yanking him by the hair to watch his crew drown was just... *chef kiss*
Poseidon is very under represented in modern culture everyone talks about Zeus, Hades, and the rest of their screwed up family. The God is pretty chill 80% of the time then every so often people remember that this man is the Father of Monsters. A lot of his children are legitimate and unironic monsters and the sea itself is full of things ready to take people to a watery grave. He take the Silver medal for someone you don’t want to make angry
@@Broomer52 Right?! Poseidon does not in fact chill with the waves, at all. The only one out of the big three who is actually pretty chill, all things considered, is Hades! He's the only one who didn't abuse poor Ody
Ontop of that the whole I’ve been so gracious line? He’s semi right Odysseus is from an island surrounded by the ocean one that Poseidon could drown the Trojan horse? Poseidons made the horse
i actually like the idea especially since its really easy to for this version of Poseidon to say "oddy it looks you won round 1 congrats. how about starting the 2nd or do you need a breather? because i am ready willing and able and i want you at the peak when you get pushed. its not satisfying if i only make you trip. take all the time you need but... remember me. because i will watch your fall with adoration." all the while riding a horse across the water alongside the ship taunting oddy before it speeds out of reach of the sea deity. compared to other versions that people have animated are more obligation malice or a sick satisfaction this wanting a challenge version want to enjoy the game of cat and mouse and as a souls player i can actually relate because it no fun to swat a fly but besting gods and the clever now that is satisfying no matter how powerful you are
I don't care how the rest of this animatic goes, somebody *_FINALLY_* put the end of Keep Your Friends Close at the beginning of a Ruthlessness video!!!!!
As strange as this might sound, I love how you interpreted the scene where Poseidon destroys the fleet, how it’s more of a natural disaster rather than Poseidon using sea monsters or tentacles, also the giant hand holding up Odysseus’ ship is an awesome visual
The giant hand reminds me of Godhand from Berserk, and the way the water around it collapses and destroys the ships in this scene makes me think of a blender or other crushing/grinding device. This was really powerfully drawn and animated
Holy crap, I love all the different variations of Ruthlessness done in animatics, but I think yours is my absolute favorite. The way you depict Poseidon in this really captures the vocals better than most others I've seen, he really has that perfect blend of eternal youthful arrogance and ancient immortal awareness. His frustration with Odysseus not for WHAT he did but how he did it really shines through here, and it heralds back to Athena's warning beautifully. The act of "mercy" he performed by leaving leaving Polyphemus blind and alone was subconsciously an act of vengeance for the deaths of his men, and Poseidon damn well knows it in this animatic!
Thank you! While I love most animatics of the song I've seen, I think there's a certain edge to the vocals that most animators just don't capture, aside from maybe AnniFlamma
Ahhh I love your Poseidon the rage, the wisdom, as a god of the sea and clearly showing the dynamic of a god vs a king is so personal, especially how he is giving “mercy” by killing him last (like his son promised) forcing him to watch his crew be killed, so well done
using the water as an extension of poseidon (grabbing ody & the water hand) is such a great concept !!! and holding him while he destroys the rest of his crew is next level cruel, 10/10
Damn! Not only does Odysseus get grabbed by a water tentacle, but Poseidon forces him to watch his men drown by holding him by his hair! Also, this version makes me think that Odysseus at first thought he was saying the right thing by explaining his actions to Poseidon, but then when Poseidon turned back at 3:02 he starts thinking maybe that wasn't the right thing to say. I don't know. That's just my interpretation.
For this, I can see that being a good case. Odysseus may have thought that while Poseidon may be the father of monsters, would he really care for his children? Especially if they are killing humans, potential worshippers for his temple? Instead, he should have been thinking like a father, what a father would need to hear from someone who had attacked and crippled their child for life. Would it have spared his men from death? Maybe, maybe not, or Poseidon might have only taken half the fleet as a show of "gratitude" if Odysseus had made a proper apology, groveling and showing remorse for his actions, maybe even asking what he could do to make it up to Poseidon, to Polythemus even.
Coming over from your Warrior of the Mind video, it's great to see that you're an equal opportunist when it comes to giving gods giant chests. I approve! Also, holy hell the part where he drowns the fleet is just amazingly horrifying.
This version definitely has my favorite expressions that Poseidon has, he’s a mix of both genuinely angry and sadistic. God I love how each animatic has their own takes, this one is so good!!
I wondered wtf was missing from the other animatics I'd seen; Poseidon personally bringing Ody up to shout directly in his face and force him to watch his crew die as consequence for his "mercy". Mercy in Ancient Greece was more like "kill me before you dishonor me" and I think that this plays such a big role in why Poseidon is so upset. It's not even about the cyclops. It's about his pride as a god. "You totally could've avoided all this, had you just killed my son." The request for apology is also so twisted from Poseidon. He wants Ody to apologize not for the pain and cries, but for the crime of leaving him alive to feel continued pain and cries. Ody answers with a genuine statement about how he never even wanted to hurt the cyclops at all, only doing so to save himself and his crew. He hopes that this will appeal to Poseidon's humanity. But Poseidon has no humanity to appeal to. "Naivete and hopefulness" are what Ody felt in his statement. Hope that Poseidon would understand. Hope that Poseidon wouldn't destroy him. Poseidon doesn't take insults lightly, and believing him to be equal to Ody in human emotion is the final insult to Poseidon.
Absolutely loved this version, though my only gripe (and that's for every animatic of Ruthlessness, not a flaw of the animatic you made) WHERE OH WHERE ARE THE LAESTRYGONIANS~
@@tacodraws5012 i understand where you're going with this, you didn't animate them cuz of the lack of time as you were halfway done, respect, your animatic was awesome anyway
This is great! I love your art style. I especially liked the trident design and the expressions. The surprise at 0:21 had me giggling and the way Odysseus lights up at 2:44? He looks so excited at getting a chance to try to talk his way out of a problem. I love that.
Every time I hear the chorus for "Ruthlessness is Mercy upon ourselves" at about 2:18, I can't help but think that besides the crew members singing, Poseidon also has the Cyclops brothers as backup singers cheering him on. This was a gorgeous rendition, very well done!
@tacodraws5012 Your right, it's the Lastrygonians, but I like the Implications as well that Poseidon grabbed all his Cyclops kids and added them to the chorus as well.
Damm I could feel poseidons words echo through the screen. Such a beautiful and perfect animation of such an impressive song. Amazingly done and easily -imho- the best animation of Ruthlessness I have seen.
I like how in contrast to some other Poseidons in Ruthlessness Animatics who do act with some air of ‘professionalness' in regards to Odysseus both hurting Polyphemus and potentially hurting Poseidons reputation This Poseidon looks and acts like he was just waiting for an excuse to beat up Odysseus, and harming his son just gave him the best excuse imaginable
Afhaggahhsgha! I love it! I love how you made Posidon hold up odys ship and just released a tsunami on everyone else! I love your designs and the percepectives! And the bag! It was so happy looking! 10/10
This of one of my fav Poseidon designs as it •Looks like something from a myth, whisky simultaneously •Looking like the designs seen in official animatic •Bares a fair resemblance to Steven Rodriguez
@@tacodraws5012 if you do him, I hope he'll be handsome and look a bit like Athena tbh, he is her father after all. I know everyone love old-looking Zeus, but the man had success for a reason. Regardless, thank you for these beautiful animatics, and the zelda reference with the bag was fun.
@@tacodraws5012is there an idea when your next Epic the musical animatic come out? Thunder bringer or any of the other songs, I miss your animatics of Epic.
While this could have used more time in the oven, this video was still great! I love how you made his eyes red in contrast to how they are usually presented

OH DAMN NOT ONLY DOES POSEIDON MAKE HIM WATCH BY HOISTING UP HIS MAIN SHIP HE LITERALLY HOLDS HIM BY THE HAIR
THE DISRESPECT WAS REAL💀🙏🏾
Sexy tho
(Jkjk i just thought it was funny)

Okay, but we talk about how Poseidon isn't pissed off when Odysseus bests him, but he's AMUSED????
He's up for a freaking challenge, and I LOVE IT!
@RawwkinGrimmie64 Originally, I was gonna have him be angry, but I thought it'd be more sinister and creepy if he was smirking
That look says “well played but you’ve still got a lot of my domain to cross before you get home.”
i actually like the idea especially since its really easy to for this version of Poseidon to say "oddy it looks you won round 1 congrats. how about starting the 2nd or do you need a breather? because i am ready willing and able and i want you at the peak when you get pushed. its not satisfying if i only make you trip. take all the time you need but... remember me. because i will watch your fall with adoration." all the while riding a horse across the water alongside the ship taunting oddy before it speeds out of reach of the sea deity.

I was tired of screaming it every time I watch a Ruthlessness vid.
From the maker of muscle mommy Athena, we get chiseled edgelord poseidon.
Edgelord is exactly the vibe I was going for XD
Oh no. Now whenever I think of the Zeus and Poseidon faceoff in the Illiad, I'll envision Zeus saying "Calm down, edgelord" .
@@tacodraws5012In the best way your poisendon looks like Shigaraki.

Damn, it seems that Percy’s dad had beef with both the Trojans and the Greeks
You have no idea how long I've been waiting for someone to make a Percy Jackson reference on a ruthlessness or get in the water animatic
Percy: Daaaaad! Quit bullying random sailors named Odysseus!
@@Vee-t2hPoseidon: nope, I am doing this for your brother Percy, it is an "eye to eye " situation
Ahhh I love your Poseidon the rage, the wisdom, as a god of the sea and clearly showing the dynamic of a god vs a king is so personal, especially how he is giving “mercy” by killing him last (like his son promised) forcing him to watch his crew be killed, so well done

Oh my goddd. This is amazing.
"All I gotta do is open this bag!" ✨️😂
I love how during the line "monster that always draws near" he is quite literally, drawing near, behind Odysseus.
I like how you made his eyes here 0:56 red with rage.
I love how Odysseus holds Aeoluses bag like a Zelda item 😂
0:18 the shock in their eyes are gold
That one person on Odysseus
"And this is why i like/worship your older brother Poseidon."
Damn! Not only does Odysseus get grabbed by a water tentacle, but Poseidon forces him to watch his men drown by holding him by his hair!

The way Poseidon jumps into the column of water at the start is an excellent touch.

Ody talking his way into trouble 😂
This is absolutely brilliant, the Cyclops part is so clever!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS MY FAVORITE RUTHLESSNESS ANIMATIC IVE EVER SEEN! WOW!
Considering every other Ruthlessness animatic I've seen is incredible, that's very high praise lol. Thank you!!!
I love the idea of Poseidon pointedly holding up Odysseus' ship as he cruelly savages the rest of the fleet. Chefs kiss
Absolutely loved this version, though my only gripe (and that's for every animatic of Ruthlessness, not a flaw of the animatic you made) WHERE OH WHERE ARE THE LAESTRYGONIANS~
You are so real for this, no one includes them
@@omarsalem1219 YESH! WHERE ARE MY GIANTS! ;-;
@@Battleshipfan I honestly thought of that about halfway through animating XD
@@tacodraws5012 i understand where you're going with this, you didn't animate them cuz of the lack of time as you were halfway done, respect, your animatic was awesome anyway
I'm pretty sure they were adapted out?
This is great! I love your art style. I especially liked the trident design and the expressions.
The surprise at 0:21 had me giggling and the way Odysseus lights up at 2:44? He looks so excited at getting a chance to try to talk his way out of a problem. I love that.
WOAAHHHH! I LOVE the diagetic strike of the waves at the start, really met the tension set by the song!
0:25 Dude pulled a Moses move from the bible.
Great animation!
Every time I hear the chorus for "Ruthlessness is Mercy upon ourselves" at about 2:18, I can't help but think that besides the crew members singing, Poseidon also has the Cyclops brothers as backup singers cheering him on.
This was a gorgeous rendition, very well done!
It's apparently supposed to be the giants that live on the island
@tacodraws5012 Your right, it's the Lastrygonians, but I like the Implications as well that Poseidon grabbed all his Cyclops kids and added them to the chorus as well.
The only one that starts with Poseidon yelling, "Oh-dysseus of Ithica!"
Let's fucking GOOOOOOO another Ruthlessness animatic, another Odysseus getting manhandled by Poseidon
No cause in every animatic hes manhandled. I love it tho
I love your design of Poseidon. I can't wait to see Hermes and Zeus design
Damm I could feel poseidons words echo through the screen. Such a beautiful and perfect animation of such an impressive song. Amazingly done and easily -imho- the best animation of Ruthlessness I have seen.
This was amazing, it's really great to have you in the fandom
3:58 hooooOOO boy that frame! No words, honestly. Demon, maybe. Or Prey.
I love that 1:59 No. I can't stop laughing.
I like how in contrast to some other Poseidons in Ruthlessness Animatics who do act with some air of ‘professionalness' in regards to Odysseus both hurting Polyphemus and potentially hurting Poseidons reputation
This Poseidon looks and acts like he was just waiting for an excuse to beat up Odysseus, and harming his son just gave him the best excuse imaginable
Out of all the videos and animation, you actually had the courtesy of adding the last line from the last song to add context.
Thank you.
0:56 it was at this point Odysseus knew……he was doomed.
You made Poseidon so badass! Excellent work!
I freaking love how you had the rest of the ships destroyed while Odysseus's ship is held up! That was awesome!
Одиссей 2:13 буквально: поорал мне в ухо, угрожал и отпустил, что с тобой не так?!
I like how his trident looks like a battle axe
HANDS DOWN the best one I’ve seen of this song!!
Making Odysseus blast Poseidon in the face was genius ;-;
1:39 and 2:15 I just noticed that poseidon is dressed like vegeta. Like look at those shoulder armor!!! It's the same lol
(Nice animatic btw)
Bro used the wind bag like a item in Pokemon 😂
Afhaggahhsgha!
I love it! I love how you made Posidon hold up odys ship and just released a tsunami on everyone else! I love your designs and the percepectives! And the bag! It was so happy looking! 10/10
LOL THE ZELDA REF
I'm amused because Poseidon is pissed because of his mercy and not due to his actions... this is tremendous 😂
Dude, i love the emotion on dadd- i mean Poseidon's face, and the Trident twirl. Perfect
This animatic is so underrated. I firmly consider this to be jorge canon, mostly bc he never declared one particular animatic as the canon one
Its how he asked for apology and Ody just explain that he HAD to leave his son injured. SIR- 😭😭
THIS AND THE ONE IN THE PLAYLIST ARE MY FAVORITES
This of one of my fav Poseidon designs as it
•Looks like something from a myth, whisky simultaneously
•Looking like the designs seen in official animatic
•Bares a fair resemblance to Steven Rodriguez
Not Poseidon’s pirate earring 👌🔥🔥🔥
This was brilliant and wonderful! Thanks for sharing your hard work! ♥
This is incredible! I love all the expressions and also the trident spins ^^
I will say, having Podeidon's method of killing Od's crew be a whirlpool is a nice touch!
You made Poseidon so intimating and antagonistic! Great work especially on the expressions and details
Ayo! This is some awesome stuff, dude! Definitely worth the wait for this one!
Looking forward to the complete version of this.
... This is the complete version
🫢
This is by far my fav animatic for this song
This might be my new favourite Ruthlessness animatic! Amazing job ❤ love the zelda item get vibe at the end lol
I LOVE the posident design you made
Poseiodn really hitting the gym with this one 🗣️
Love how vicious and angry he looks.
Absolutely beautiful!
Will you do Thunder Bringer next? I'd love to see how you do the King of the gods.
I dunno if I wanna do that next, but maybe!
@@tacodraws5012 if you do him, I hope he'll be handsome and look a bit like Athena tbh, he is her father after all.

Ruthlessness animatics don't miss
The look of Poseidon, his face and eyes and the hair....he reminds me of Zelagadis from The Slayers...anyone else?
My favourite part was Odysseus holding up the bag of wind like in a Zelda game, it made me chuckle
DUDE!! I've been watching this since just be4 starting work today!!! Your animation is AMAZING!!!!!🤩
OMG THIS IS AMAZING
I think your Poseidon deisgn is my favorite I've seen
Good job :)
I love this a lot
GIVING YOU A LIKE JUST FOR INCLUDING THE "ODYSSEUS OF ITHICA" INTRO
I love how you have Poseidon splits the sea!!
Poseidon out here looking like Star Platinum ngl
Also love the animation!
Your Poseidon looks like finally boss or evil gin. I would love to fight a boss like this in some game
While this could have used more time in the oven, this video was still great! I love how you made his eyes red in contrast to how they are usually presented
why does this slap and the songggg too!!!👁️👁️ 👀👀🔥🔥🔥
This is so good!!!! Love this!
I love this the introduction was just amazing
Great animatic!
Well done. I enjoyed this a lot!
I like yours and Neal Illustrator's Poseidon the best out of the animatics
Oh my god I love your design for Poseidon! He looks like me if I was skinnier 😂 I should look into getting a trident
Every animatic of this song gives me hope to see Laestrygonians. But no one has ever drawn them🙁
The canadians???
Wow nicely done
You have to do the whole thing every song I'm obsessed ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@Gamerroesygang Believe me, I'd love to lol
Poseidon look like sth came straight off of Saint Seiya.
Posiden kinda looks like aizawa in the thumbnail. It's not just me, right?
It's interesting to me that Poseidon looks a lot like an older, meaner, longer-haired Odysseus. Dunno if it's intentional, but I kinda like it.
I like this version most since he did it this way to traumatize him first
If you think about it it's kind of sad. Cause poseidon's kind of the only one who listens to the cyclop
This is so good!!!!
