ohhh, how i see it is that it’s representing how daisuke had so much ahead of him while anya and swansea were stuck in life: anya being not able to achieve her dream in becoming a nurse and swansea not feeling fulfilled in life (i think??? it’s been a while)
I like the detail of Daisuke being the person who shoves Jimmy off like Jimmy shoved him off into doing something horribly dangerous that should have never been done
Not only that but then he proceeded to probably sneak though the vent to escape Swansea and didn't end up getting hurt so not only he push him to do something incredibly dangerous, it was something incredibly dangerous he was able to do
This is probably the first animatic where I've gotten to see Anya, Swansea, and Daisuke just being HAPPY. Heck yeah your funky employees, haunt Jimmy from beyond the grave.
I love how you encapsulated Jimmy's petty obsession and jealousy over Curly's success. Having Jimmy act like some lord over the captain only for the consequences to throw him through the wringer is awesome!
what i understand through the game is that Jimmy was so down psychologicaly that he wanted to end his life, not caring about the others that he think they are looking down on him. And when Curly got hurt instead, he found here a opportunity to be the highest of all of the crew and do the decisions and, by the same occasion, having some morbid fun with the guy who he was jealous to. He becomes so delusional that he believes that he arranged things, but he actually made things even worse, ending up killing people. When he realised the gravity of his actions and what that led to, he tried to peruate himself by saying that all of this was an accident (he denies everything he has done because he believed he was the main victime in all of this), but he finally decided to save the captain and end his own life.
@@eliottdeletraz97 To indirectly quote a Tumblr user- "Jimmy only 'cared' about Curly when he had absolute power over his entire life due to the injuries he sustained in the crash"
@@AlexiaGeer-j9y eventually, yes, but he is clearly not in the game. His eye still tracks the player's movements until the end, so he was at least still able to see when Anya killed herself.
@@johnosburn6814 I was just saying that realistically, he would go blind, but then again we have weird fleshy eggs with weird bone horses or something In the game so yeah sorry lol
i personally find it to be pretty true to the character, he clearly doesn't see her as a person, and he clearly just doesn't care about her, we know this all from the game, i personally think that this is perfect for his character.
Adding to this, the line after for Swansea, "misled", fits well, for me at least, because of how Swansea felt like an "inevitable crazy axe villain" on first playthrough
I’m always so obsessed with your cartoon-ification of characters. My favorite part of these ones is how Daisuke is very small and noodly and Swansea is very large and tough, which REALLY helps emphasize the young, carefree intern vs. old, pessimistic expert dynamic
@@TryinaD I mean if you watched author of this video twitter you will see that her/him Cahara look exactly the same, just another clothes. For me this is super eastereeg because they similiar behaviour
I love when a character’s spiral into insanity is shown as a musical number, it always works so well and this is no exception. The song totally fits and I love how you drew all the characters. Especially love Daisuke’s design, I feel like it really shows how young he was compared to everybody else.
I also love how even though it’s not literally them we still get to have the catharsis of the characters that side character has hurt just getting to torment him or her for a while I’ve always loved stuff like that because it’s always just so much fun for me I don’t know why
1:13 I like how Jimmy isn’t acknowledging Anyas body just like in the game while Curly is looking at her despite Jimmy being there. It just feels like such a nice detail that really shows the difference between two of them and their priorities
The game's only a few hours long! Surely it can't start an obsession in such little time! Don't worry, it's certanly safe! You won't become obsessed I promise just try it :) Wash your mouth.
I really love how the visuals change the meaning of the lyrics. At the start jimmy is singing to curly and taunting about how he is going to jump from the tower if he is let down and doesn't get what he wants but after the event of the game it's everyone else singing happily to jimmy about how they WILL jump from the tower BECAUSE they have been let down and jimmy is left alone with that truth
AND THE CROWD SOBS HYSTERICALLY!!! 🗣🗣🗣 /pos The way Daisuke looks especially younger and more lively compared to the others around him... He still had so much potential in his life, like the symbolism of him being the one still climbing the ladder while others are stuck on it. CRYING. FANTASTIC.
I like how Anya shows up in the back when it says “I get overlooked” because she got overlooked by Jimmy, so much so he doesn’t even a sequence in the game of him ‘taking responsibility’ for what he did to her. I also like how Swansea appears when it says about being misled because Swansea misled him about the state of the utility room.
1:04 I love the subtle horror of Curly being stuck powerless on the bed while the crew slowly drives themselves away to their deaths (mainly because of jimmy)
I love love love that this takes place almost entirely in the weird hallucination dream spaces of the game it’s such a clever way to make sense of the musical number happening.
i've rewatched this countless times already, not only is it impressive and showcasing an INTENSE understanding of the game and its characters but its SO impressive from a framing and storyboading level. going to make something sick in your name SWEAR
I love this especially how loud daisuke’s body language is And Swansea giving a thumbs up after daisuke pushes jimmy off the coaster And also the little bounce in the “intro” when he lifts up his welding hood thing Jimmy being jealous because the intern is amazing Can’t even be mad you drew jimbo because everyone else is having unrestrained summer fun tormenting him
This is awesome, and I really love how to took the hopeful part of the song where "I hope youll stop me" and twist it to fit Jimmys fucked up view Jimmy seems to have in parts of the story where he blames blames the captain for not stopping him because the crew and their actions are "his responsibility".
Oooo I love how when the song talks about being overlooked we see Anya and when it says mislead it shows Swansea. It both feels like Jimmy’s stomping down the hallway throwing a tantrum over Curly’s perceived slights, while also in the background you see the REAL harm Curly’s leadership has enabled Love how the corpses of the crew and Curly-post accident don’t feel like they’re characters, but just whatever Jimmy thinks of them and wants to project onto them. Because they don’t have agency anymore.
I really like how they're designed here, all very distinct body shapes and movements. Anya and Daisuke look especially great! Edit: Since this got a lot of attention, I'd like to point out how much I like the moment at 0:48 . Love love love how they're posed
I like the fact when Jimmy is dropped onto the roller coaster thing with the three dead people haunting him. Anya puts her hands on his shoulders, I know it ain’t much but now she’s the one in control and is able to touch him and he isn’t able to fight back. Also in the beginning after Jimmy presses the button, and it’s shown Curly saw the images flash. Imagine that was telling him what was gonna happen, but the plane crashed and then he couldn’t talk. And only stay still while everyone around him died
This is the best Mouthwahing animatic made to date. The seamless transition of the song from starting as Jimmy’s spiteful vow to drag Curly down with him to becoming a heckling by the ghosts of everyone he hurt is nothing short of a masterclass of directing.
My personal interpretation of Swansea and Anya on their ladder is that, they believed themselves to be at the top already, a low top but the top nonetheless, they could not believe they would ever climb any higher, they reached their sad lonely peak... but in reality they had the capability to climb, if they'd just climbed down their ladder and up another, the steps to go down are there, but they didn't see a point in taking them because going down is terrifying... theyre at the top, how could they possibly go higher, right? They dont have a higher peak to climb to... unless they went down first...
I think it was more of showing how daisuke had more ahead of him because he was younger than the others and that's why he could still climb up but that's also a great interpretation!!
I love how on the screen all the characters are highlighted in red by their injury but for curly, he’s all red, his eye is the one thing that *didnt* get injured
"But I hope I am stopped on the elevator up by you" Maaaaaaan. Man. "Take responsibility." I've watched this so many times now. The imagery use is so good. Making the ladders into rides fits the song so well, it's so jaunty and so miserable. And the way you've interpreted their designs is so expressive. Aaaaa
like the detail of jimmy looking at Anya on the lyric "i get overlooked" given how Anya's whole situation with him was overlooked by everyone on the ship. Curly did nothing about it even blaming her a little for it, She felt she couldn't tell Daisuke as he was too young and Swansea only learned of it when it was too late to do anything. It also sums up Jimmys perception of her as he constantly overlooks/outright downplays any capabilities she has.
"Och framför allt, tare kallt!"/"And above all, take it easy!" being so perfectly timed with Jimmy hitting the button sent chills down my spine! This certified Ted Gärdestad banger™ fits his character to a T, wonderful animatic!
I love how you stylized all of them, you kept their shapes, their big hands, kept the style and the charm. This is amazing. Sorry you had to draw jimbo
I didn't realize this came out today at first. This is very well done. Especially showing Jimmy's resentment for Curly's success and then being remorseful about what he did only because it hurt Curly, seeing what he did as wrong.
Every time a new narratively rich yet fucked up game comes out I’m always batting my eyelashes waiting for yellow-py to post some banger ass fucking animation
Älskar att man blev jävla jumpscaread av ens kultur i spelet också, när Swansea had sin monolog och en video av en smörgåstårta poppade upp i bakgrunden blev jag så jävla glatt förvirrad. like what, Wrong Organ är ett svenskt företag??? xD
LOVE the characters fucking with j*mmy and your interpretation of daisuke especially he's just a silly goofy guy...also i feel bad about it but i couldn't help giggling at curly's :0 face at 0:46
its no surprise the person who made my all time favorite Cuphead and Deltarune animatics made one of my favorite MOUTHWASHING animatic too! i have been replaying this every chance I've got since this came out, this is insane!!!/pos
The fact that the artist (Ted Gärdestad) committed suicide by jumping in front of a train makes this song.. a lot sadder. (He suffered from schizophrenia and in 1997 he took his own life due to severely worsening mental health, not to mention the stigma. If you listen closely to his songs leading up to it, you can notice a pattern of it getting worse and worse.) - Swedish internet dweller.
i have such an unhealthy obsession with this video. i love the way you draw everyone and the song is just SOOO PERFECT😭 also love the detail of daisuke being the one to shove jimmy off that platform, just like jimmy shoved him off to do something dangerous instead of going himself C: love the little details and DAISUKE LOOKS SO CUTE AND HAPPY. MY BOY also, at 0:24, the lyric being "i want you for myself" while showing the "BEST CAP" cup is SO cool?? like jimmy wants to be the "best captain", which fits so much into the context of the situation in my opinion, since his envy about curly being better than him has just taken over his thoughts !!
my gosh I cannot emphasize this enough, the stylized versions of the crew are SO AWESOME?? body types and hair styles and everything like that, it's just so fun to watch and it's like one of those really well-drawn comics where I can't help but just admire how well it's drawn in addition to the story. (+5 points for them being so silly and happy uhghgfggmm)
Omg i love this so much!! The choreography is so crisp, i love how each character's personality is shown through the way they move! And Jimmy going from bitter to snapping and acting so snide and cocky, only then to lose his marbles completely and be devoured by the guilt... and you managed to portray it so beautifully, I'm mesmerised, thank you
I'm completely obsessed with just how well designed each character is in your style, each of them individually have so much personality and charm to their looks! As a longtime fan of your works (been here since the Lisa and Cuphead animatics) this is amazing, always looking forward to more dude. You've come SO far in terms of improvement.
@ Hade själv en tanke att göra animatic till Håkans Försent för edelweiss. Det har legat på vänt eftersom svensk musik e lite niche för youtube, men jag blev så himla glad över att du också kör på det :D
@ asså om du har en idé som du är passionerad över, bara kör hårt och gör det! Spelar ingen roll om inte allting är perfekt för att kunna få maximalt antal views. Själv gör jag bara grejer för att jag vill få ut idéerna ur mitt huvud.
I adore the scene of him being sat in front of the party for him, where everyone is dead together, juxtaposed to Curly's party where everyone was nervous, uncertain, and fearful, but nonetheless still alive. Curly would take responsibility because he could, and if nothing else, could admit his faults, as Swansea put it for himself. But Jimmy's greatest sin was refusing to see his own faults (because its easier to believe you've done everything you could, than it is to believe you can still try harder), so when his mind started having trouble keeping up the lie to himself, he lost his footing, and fell into his own despair, as you depicted it. I wonder if, when he died at his own hand with all the time left to think before pulling the trigger, he had any regrets, like Swanson. I wonder if he believed he'd done everything he could, and that his death was justified, because he was "taking responsibility." "Taking Responsibility" is a theme throughout the game, and the understanding of it changes through time, and based on whose perspective we're looking through . Jimmy believed it meant "taking control" or "doing everything you can to remedy a situation," later on, while Curly as a captain believes responsibility is "keeping everyone alive and safe" until he learns later (when he cant do anything about it) that it means more than that. it seems like the devs wish to communicate that "taking responsibility" means to "do what is asked of you" or "whats expected of you." when taking responsibility, you dont do so AFTER failing to take responsibility; its not something done in response to failure (that would be accountability). Jimmy wanted to "take responsibility" at first, without knowing what it really meant. He believed "taking responsibility" meant "taking the position of captain" and when he realized it was more than that, he then thought of it as a means to apologize, without ever saying he was sorry until the end. Jimmy never did what he was asked of (which would've earned him trust, which comes before responsibility) and only did what he felt was right. Curly didnt do one thing he was asked of, and thats what brought them to the situation they were in, and he has to live with that. He can no longer take responsibility. Which is exactly why Jimmy's suicide, as well as the rest of his actions, were all self-serving. He didnt do anything for anyone else; it was just to make him feel like he's done everything he could. It was just to make him feel like he "Took Responsibility."
first off, awesome song choice, new song in the playlist second off, OH MY GOSH?? THE CREATIVITY? THE SCENES ARE SO FLUID, THEY RUN SO WELL WITH THE SONG!! ITS LIKE EVERYTIME I REWATCH I REALIZE NEW MEANINGS BEHIND SOME OF THE SCENES AND WHY THEY WERE PAIRED WITH THE LYRICS ALSO, ALSO, YOUR ARTSTYLE?? I FEEL LIKE I JUST WATCHED A LEAKED STORYBOARD TO AN ACTUAL SHOW WHATTT IM IN LOVEE!!
I really love how there's one scene where swansea twirls him around.anya tosses him to daisuke. And daisuke finishes Jimbo off by throwing him.kind of like swansea finishing off daisuke while giving him the final act of mercy.
i loooovvee how u drew swansea in this ... this is perfect!!!!!! the concern on swanseas face during the frame where daisuke dies is ... ogh ... oooogghhh... so good!!!!!!!
Oh my GOD I ABSOLUTELY ADORE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!!! The song choice is so fitting somehow, the characters are stylised in such an appealing way that makes you recognise them INSTANTLY, they have so much personality through their movements and incredible expressions, and the way the story is portrayed is just perfect Man this is TASTY
I love everything about this!!! The composition, the art style, designs, the text mimicking the game, the vengeful ghost vibe,, plus I've been introduced to a bop?? Perfect!
The more fan content I see of him, the more convinced I am that J*mmy was a hundred percent gay for Curly and was too deep in denial and narcissism to exhibit it like, you know, *a normal fucking person.*
Let's not bog down a complex issue into something like that. I'm sure the gays don't want to be associated with someone like THAT anyway. Go watch Easy A if you're looking for extremely subtle blink-and-you-miss-it homoerotic undertones between a main character trying to make their life one they don't have to escape from and their toxic friend turned toxic rival 🤧
i love this sm. im glad jimmy is portrayed more complex here, not just an asshole garbage but clearly a sick and troubled person. for once i dont feel as disgusting as usual for relating to him
ohhhh this is SO good. From the character design, to how well the song fits, to how you managed to compress the whole plot in under 2 minutes!!!! Screaming!!!
genuinely the best mouthwashing animatic i've ever seen this is amazing impeccable impressive ITS SO GOOD RAHAHHAHAHAH and i love how you drew them SO MUCH LIKE THE WAY YOU CAN LIKE TELL THEM APART AND IDK HOW YOU INTERPRETED THEIR DESIGNS
i love the symbolism of ladders they’re on. jimmy can see the top of his but hes not actually there yet, he’s holding onto the lower rungs. daisuke is climbing his but there’s no top in sight, his potential is seemingly unlimited. swansea and anya are on the same ladder, and have reached the top but it’s not fulfilling, they’re just sitting there. they’ve reached their full potential and after that the ladder just goes back down. curly climbs to the top among the stars but it’s unsteady, and jimmy meets him there and pushes him right off of it. the higher the ladder the harder the fall
The second I saw mouthwashing I know that if you made an animatic for it it would go SO HARD, thank you for immediately proving me right and blowing my expectations out of the water
i like the detail that daisuke is still climbing up his ladder while swansea and anya are just like. stuck on theirs
ohhh, how i see it is that it’s representing how daisuke had so much ahead of him while anya and swansea were stuck in life: anya being not able to achieve her dream in becoming a nurse and swansea not feeling fulfilled in life (i think??? it’s been a while)
@@spxcesoda yeah that's pretty much what I meant !! you worded it better than me though
YE S ohmygod .
I just thought it was just physically prowess
@@aitusai yeah, could be a mix of both
I like the detail of Daisuke being the person who shoves Jimmy off like Jimmy shoved him off into doing something horribly dangerous that should have never been done
Not once, but twice! Very cathartic.

Not only that but then he proceeded to probably sneak though the vent to escape Swansea and didn't end up getting hurt so not only he push him to do something incredibly dangerous, it was something incredibly dangerous he was able to do

My exact thoughts, this is amazing
I could watch this 50 times and not get bored

Jimmy's doing the "Get everyone killed ANY%" Speedrun, he didn't want to waste any time.
I love this
especially how loud daisuke’s body language is
And Swansea giving a thumbs up after daisuke pushes jimmy off the coaster

Älskar att man blev jävla jumpscaread av ens kultur i spelet också, när Swansea had sin monolog och en video av en smörgåstårta poppade upp i bakgrunden blev jag så jävla glatt förvirrad. like what, Wrong Organ är ett svenskt företag??? xD
As a Swedish Mouthwashing fan I want to sincerely thank you for making this (IT’S SO COOL AND THE SONG CHOICE IS AMAZING???)
OMG SWEDISH MW FAN HIIII
Kinda crazy how this is the closest thing to an eng lyrics video for eiffeltornet on yt
ok but i ABSOLUTELY LOVE how distinct each character’s personality is through their body language (0:50 and 1:35 is where you can see this the most)
LOVE the characters fucking with j*mmy and your interpretation of daisuke especially he's just a silly goofy guy...also i feel bad about it but i couldn't help giggling at curly's :0 face at 0:46
BRO AS A SWEDISH PERSON HEARING THIS AND THEN JUST BEING ABLE TO UNDERSATND THE LYRICS IS SO NICE
Istg this person needs to start a show, their story boarding is beautiful, idk what the show would be abt, I’d get invested either way
its no surprise the person who made my all time favorite Cuphead and Deltarune animatics made one of my favorite MOUTHWASHING animatic too! i have been replaying this every chance I've got since this came out, this is insane!!!/pos
The fact that the artist (Ted Gärdestad) committed suicide by jumping in front of a train makes this song.. a lot sadder.
(He suffered from schizophrenia and in 1997 he took his own life due to severely worsening mental health, not to mention the stigma. If you listen closely to his songs leading up to it, you can notice a pattern of it getting worse and worse.)
- Swedish internet dweller.
i have such an unhealthy obsession with this video. i love the way you draw everyone and the song is just SOOO PERFECT😭 also love the detail of daisuke being the one to shove jimmy off that platform, just like jimmy shoved him off to do something dangerous instead of going himself C: love the little details and DAISUKE LOOKS SO CUTE AND HAPPY. MY BOY
also, at 0:24, the lyric being "i want you for myself" while showing the "BEST CAP" cup is SO cool?? like jimmy wants to be the "best captain", which fits so much into the context of the situation in my opinion, since his envy about curly being better than him has just taken over his thoughts !!
"I'll make a musical number out of it." A MUSICAL NUMBER? YOU'RE UNDERSELLING YOURSELF!
my gosh I cannot emphasize this enough, the stylized versions of the crew are SO AWESOME?? body types and hair styles and everything like that, it's just so fun to watch and it's like one of those really well-drawn comics where I can't help but just admire how well it's drawn in addition to the story.
(+5 points for them being so silly and happy uhghgfggmm)
Swedish song, english captions, ted gärdestad, mouthwashing? a masterpiece
Omg i love this so much!! The choreography is so crisp, i love how each character's personality is shown through the way they move! And Jimmy going from bitter to snapping and acting so snide and cocky, only then to lose his marbles completely and be devoured by the guilt... and you managed to portray it so beautifully, I'm mesmerised, thank you
I'm completely obsessed with just how well designed each character is in your style, each of them individually have so much personality and charm to their looks!
As a longtime fan of your works (been here since the Lisa and Cuphead animatics) this is amazing, always looking forward to more dude. You've come SO far in terms of improvement.
Innan jag tryckte på videon tänkte jag "det kan väl inte gärna vara Ted Gärdestad-låten?" And it *was???* Best thing I saw today!
Någon behövde göra det 😎
@ Hade själv en tanke att göra animatic till Håkans Försent för edelweiss. Det har legat på vänt eftersom svensk musik e lite niche för youtube, men jag blev så himla glad över att du också kör på det :D
@ asså om du har en idé som du är passionerad över, bara kör hårt och gör det! Spelar ingen roll om inte allting är perfekt för att kunna få maximalt antal views. Själv gör jag bara grejer för att jag vill få ut idéerna ur mitt huvud.
I ended up listening to this song 300 times after i discovered this animatic
Thank you for finding one of my favorite songs now
I adore the scene of him being sat in front of the party for him, where everyone is dead together, juxtaposed to Curly's party where everyone was nervous, uncertain, and fearful, but nonetheless still alive. Curly would take responsibility because he could, and if nothing else, could admit his faults, as Swansea put it for himself. But Jimmy's greatest sin was refusing to see his own faults (because its easier to believe you've done everything you could, than it is to believe you can still try harder), so when his mind started having trouble keeping up the lie to himself, he lost his footing, and fell into his own despair, as you depicted it.
I wonder if, when he died at his own hand with all the time left to think before pulling the trigger, he had any regrets, like Swanson. I wonder if he believed he'd done everything he could, and that his death was justified, because he was "taking responsibility."
"Taking Responsibility" is a theme throughout the game, and the understanding of it changes through time, and based on whose perspective we're looking through . Jimmy believed it meant "taking control" or "doing everything you can to remedy a situation," later on, while Curly as a captain believes responsibility is "keeping everyone alive and safe" until he learns later (when he cant do anything about it) that it means more than that. it seems like the devs wish to communicate that "taking responsibility" means to "do what is asked of you" or "whats expected of you."
when taking responsibility, you dont do so AFTER failing to take responsibility; its not something done in response to failure (that would be accountability). Jimmy wanted to "take responsibility" at first, without knowing what it really meant. He believed "taking responsibility" meant "taking the position of captain" and when he realized it was more than that, he then thought of it as a means to apologize, without ever saying he was sorry until the end. Jimmy never did what he was asked of (which would've earned him trust, which comes before responsibility) and only did what he felt was right. Curly didnt do one thing he was asked of, and thats what brought them to the situation they were in, and he has to live with that. He can no longer take responsibility.
Which is exactly why Jimmy's suicide, as well as the rest of his actions, were all self-serving. He didnt do anything for anyone else; it was just to make him feel like he's done everything he could. It was just to make him feel like he "Took Responsibility."
1:39 i like to think this is basically saying everything went downhill at some point. Amazing animatic as always!! Love the art style
The way this bastard won’t even deign himself to look at Anya even after things come to a head, monster
Awesome animation
saw this and went "huh this art style looks familiar" and realized you made the DE good life animatic!!!!! Love this!!!!!!!!
first off, awesome song choice, new song in the playlist
second off, OH MY GOSH?? THE CREATIVITY? THE SCENES ARE SO FLUID, THEY RUN SO WELL WITH THE SONG!! ITS LIKE EVERYTIME I REWATCH I REALIZE NEW MEANINGS BEHIND SOME OF THE SCENES AND WHY THEY WERE PAIRED WITH THE LYRICS
ALSO, ALSO, YOUR ARTSTYLE?? I FEEL LIKE I JUST WATCHED A LEAKED STORYBOARD TO AN ACTUAL SHOW WHATTT IM IN LOVEE!!
Mouthwashing if it was a Black Comedy play instead of a psychological horror game
Ye and If It Was Swedish
1:25 “so long, gay horse-lover!!‼️‼️🗣️🔥🗣️🗣️🔥” -Daisuke (inspired by “so long, gay bowser”)
I really love how there's one scene where swansea twirls him around.anya tosses him to daisuke. And daisuke finishes Jimbo off by throwing him.kind of like swansea finishing off daisuke while giving him the final act of mercy.
i loooovvee how u drew swansea in this ... this is perfect!!!!!! the concern on swanseas face during the frame where daisuke dies is ... ogh ... oooogghhh... so good!!!!!!!
i watch this animatic religiously. once every day
Thank you for introducing me to this song. Also, I really loved the Anya/Daisuke/Swansea trio here.
I just noticed that Daisuke's ghost form always keeps one eye closed. What a small but bittersweet detail!
Oh my GOD I ABSOLUTELY ADORE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!!!
The song choice is so fitting somehow, the characters are stylised in such an appealing way that makes you recognise them INSTANTLY, they have so much personality through their movements and incredible expressions, and the way the story is portrayed is just perfect
Man this is TASTY
so good!! I love the snappiness when Curly gets pushed and it shows him on the medical bed for the first time
Oh this was so fun, I LOVE the part where they're suddenly on a little rollercoaster. Really nicely done all around.
I love everything about this!!! The composition, the art style, designs, the text mimicking the game, the vengeful ghost vibe,, plus I've been introduced to a bop?? Perfect!
1:38 - I like how the music here lines up with them going around the bend
0:28 to 0:40 and 0:40 to 1:03 are my faves They are just too well done
The symbolism/metaphor in these animatics r so good, esp this one and both LISA's
The more fan content I see of him, the more convinced I am that J*mmy was a hundred percent gay for Curly and was too deep in denial and narcissism to exhibit it like, you know, *a normal fucking person.*
Let's not bog down a complex issue into something like that. I'm sure the gays don't want to be associated with someone like THAT anyway. Go watch Easy A if you're looking for extremely subtle blink-and-you-miss-it homoerotic undertones between a main character trying to make their life one they don't have to escape from and their toxic friend turned toxic rival 🤧
SUCH A GOOD ANIMATIC AND WITH A SWEDISH SONG? HELLS YEAH
(small nitpick though, "Eiffeltornet" is misspelled)
😳
I FUCKING LOVE THE WAY YOU DREW DAISUKE EAGHHAH
i love this sm. im glad jimmy is portrayed more complex here, not just an asshole garbage but clearly a sick and troubled person. for once i dont feel as disgusting as usual for relating to him
ohhhh this is SO good. From the character design, to how well the song fits, to how you managed to compress the whole plot in under 2 minutes!!!! Screaming!!!
genuinely the best mouthwashing animatic i've ever seen this is amazing impeccable impressive ITS SO GOOD RAHAHHAHAHAH and i love how you drew them SO MUCH LIKE THE WAY YOU CAN LIKE TELL THEM APART AND IDK HOW YOU INTERPRETED THEIR DESIGNS
i love the symbolism of ladders they’re on.
jimmy can see the top of his but hes not actually there yet, he’s holding onto the lower rungs.
daisuke is climbing his but there’s no top in sight, his potential is seemingly unlimited.
swansea and anya are on the same ladder, and have reached the top but it’s not fulfilling, they’re just sitting there. they’ve reached their full potential and after that the ladder just goes back down.
curly climbs to the top among the stars but it’s unsteady, and jimmy meets him there and pushes him right off of it. the higher the ladder the harder the fall
I admit. This is the best animation I've ever seen in my entire life
TED GÄRDESTAD??? IN *MY* MOUTHWASHING
Wut in tarnation?!
The second I saw mouthwashing I know that if you made an animatic for it it would go SO HARD, thank you for immediately proving me right and blowing my expectations out of the water
probably one of my fav mouthwashing animatics
I love when people main characters who are in their mid 20s or early 20s, very energetic and happy like how you did with daisuke
This song sounds like it’s from a musical I can’t stop rewatching this
At first, it was hard to tell Curly and Jimmy apart, but Jimmy wants to be like Curly, so it makes sense.
I love how you characterized all of them, the artstyle is amazing! The way they move, EVERYTHING! I can’t stop watching :,0
I need this animatic tattooed in my brain oml The way you draw each character makes them even more distinct
Mid-drawing Mouthwashing fanart and I get this notif!!! So good!!!
theres so much overlap from funger and mouthwashing and i love it
the girly girl problem of having to stop myself from VIOLENTLY sobbing everytime i think about how daisuke had his whole life ahead of him🤭
