@joshuafrazier3904 No, I don’t think there’s any reason beyond plot. If I had to make one up, I’d say that because Odysseus used the wind bag-an artifact crafted by another god specifically to contain some of Poseidon’s powers (the storm)-it had an effect on him. There might also be certain restrictions in place since Zeus agreed to Athena’s request. But that’s just me speculating rather than knowing for sure. I hope that helps with your headcanon! I’m just going with the rule of cool.
@@dominiqeu11 Honestly? Agree with your speculation that there were limitations placed on Poseidon since Zeus agreed to set Ody free and stuff. As for the wind bag, in a snippet for 600 strike, Jorge said that Odysseus was breaking the sound barrier, so that explains why Poseidon got bruised. Not to mention he was hit 600 times (according to the wiki). But that's just my personal take on the whole thing.
“Next to my wife” is colder than the antartic itself, colder than the sea Oddyseus was thrown into, colder than when we heard his mom sing, colder than Polites body
I was on my coffee break during work. The next ahift came in the break room as this line was delivered and my reaction was so over the top they stopped and hesitated to sit down xD
"Six Hundred Death under my command. Cuz I only had one goal in mind:" ...and silence. You can hear 'make it back alive to our homeland'. Because they never did. That fuckin hit.
Its interesting that he was blaming himself for their deaths... but then finally facing off against big P he is like, "Ya know what, no... This is your fault you ruthless fish humper."
And he wont deserve her anymore, he is a danger to thise who he dis all this for nkw, the cruelty he learned will not soare them. Just saying, in myth, where he was not a monster, he strangled penelope in a fit of outrage over her trying to make sure he was not an imposter .... I dont want him getting home anymore
@@SingingSealRiana Bro what myth did you read cause that was like, not at all in the Odyssey. Especially since in the Odyssey, he didn't have this "journey to be a monster".
I made a crazy connection: Ody gives Poseidon 24 stab wounds with trident, and if we count the number of songs from Storm to Six hundred strike, it's exactly 24. This is probably just a coincidence, but I'd like to think that it isn't
@@zakronthesheep fr tho, I do kinda sympathize with her. I think being alone for a hundred years gives you some pretty stunted empathy, sense of time and social skills. (But fr tho like 7 YEARS!!!!)
@@PiaPancakesif I were completely alone for 100 years I would absolutely become obsessive over the first person to finally be there with me lmao especially since she’s alone again? Ough
41:18 in the song Dangerous, I heard echoing in my mind “make it back alive to our home land”. That was so epic, the crew sings that part, but since they aren’t there, it is just silence! Then Odysseus mentions how he has no more crew with him to sing right after that moment. It is just so perfectly crafted!
There’s something darkly satisfying about seeing Odysseus physically hurt an all-powerful, immortal god who brought him & his crew nothing but pain & death. “Look what you turned me into!” That line is going to stay with me for a long time.
Odysseus doing the Full Speed Ahead motif with no crew to finish the line in Dangerous was such a minor touch but a super impactful one, the instrumental was gorgeous as well
it works perfectly too bcs the listener auto finishes it and think "make it back alive to our homeland" which is what he's referring to, and the song doesn't even have to say it for us to understand that's what he's sacrificed everything for.
The OMG moment at 53:36 when I realized that Odysseus took out Poseidon's left eye, He really had it out for him after 'Ruthlessness' Gwendy and their team made this animatic so well. Jorge, Steven, all of Cast of EPIC did so well done throughout the journey, this saga was so worth watching live. I LOVE IT SO MUCH
@@RoseFoster19997OMG yes! Someone mentioned this before but it’s actually Odysseus’ vengeance not Poseidon’s. When I realized that my flabbers were fully ghasted 😮
52:44-53:30 Odysseus stab Poseidon non-stop almost for a minute. I'm so shocked seeing that moment. That revenge is served so cold, even when Poseidon begged for him to stop. Ody just continues, reminding him all that stab, all that pain was caused by what he teaches. What he have done. "Look what you've turned me into" "look what we've become". Omg it's so chilling.
That hits me emotionally but my brain can't f-ing process whether I have to break down in tears or scream from the animation of Odysseus stabby-stabbing Poseidon with his trident and Poseidon's scream. MY F-ING BRAIN IS NOT FULLY FUNCTIONING IN THIS SAGA 😭😭😭😭😭
These Animators leveled up their EPIC skills to the test. Like Anniflamma using more color and Gigi having smooth frames and Gwendy giving us a cool anime animatic And I was at school so ANIME ROCKS
Calipso: I love you Odysseus: no thanks Calypso: *forces herself upon him for multiple years* Odysseus: yeah no I still don’t love you Calypso: BUT WHY
@@RoseFoster19997you're right! I mean in Greek myth it's more that the gods can't die, not that they can't be hurt. Prometheus for example, that's his life story, and he's a titan. He's being tortured for eternity because he can't die. He just keeps getting his insides torn out and eaten, only for them to regrow and the process to begin again the next day
I love the detail that the part where the crew would usually reply in the "full speed ahead" melody (IDK what it's called) is so conspicuously silent 😭😭😭
This was an absolute emotional rollercoaster. I really felt for Calypso when she switched from being not sorry for loving him to breaking down and questioning why she ever loved him and finally what to do with all the love she amassed for Odysseus. That was heartbreaking. Odysseus finally became the MONSTER and Posideon felt true FEAR. All it took for forgiveness and this would have been over but his darn pride. It's not like they killed his son. He really took An Eye For An Eye way out of proportion. My Epic Journey has absolutely been magical and I can't wait for the Final Saga. Thank you Mr. Jorge and The EPIC Team for this masterpiece 🎉🎉
When you are so much a monster that a God declares you to be one... - shivers - I feel like I just saw the moment Odysseus completed his transformation into a demon. Tiresias really meant it when he said Odysseus would no longer be who he was when he drew his final breath.
I mean personally, if I think if he was a true monster He would’ve done more when Poseidon begged him to stop he gave him mercy unlike Poseidon to him.
I mean there is still something less because unlike Poseidon he actually did show mercy at the end after letting him beg a little. So thankfully he isn't a 100% gone
Except he isn't helpless and could still kill Odysseus right then if he wasn't being stupid and did literally anything. Like Im sorry Poseidon could do literally anything and Odysseus has a high likely hood of dying on accident Poseidon didn't even try to fight back which is dumb. Like I love the saga but that ending scene is so dumb to me.
@@Nechrostriker4 Yeah, Poseidon used a good amount of his power for the storm, then used his God move (strongest move of the Gods), then got slashed a bunch of times by Ody's own super move, there's also the possibility that restrictions were placed on him cos of Zeus deciding to release Ody. Poseidon used too much of his energy to fight back at that point.
600 Strike was so dark, and I loved it. I’m the kind of person who believes in an eye for an eye, and Poseidon doesn’t have enough stab wounds yet. Also, “Next to my wife” was the PERFECT response to Poseidon asking how he’ll sleep at night
NO ONE is talking about “And I will get back to my WIIIIFE” and that is killing me i really think it’s my favorite line read of the whole saga! Jorge you are just so insanely talented and I am so glad I was born at just the right time to experience the brilliant light you bring to the world
I'm hoping Jorge didn't blow his voice out doing that because I can imagine doing repeated takes like that when you're not a gravelly singer can do that.
So we’re all talking about six hundred strike but I want to talk about that SILENCE at the beginning of Dangerous. Because after that he says “No fleet, no band” and there LITERALLY is no band, just Ody’s sad guitar
Only one more saga left…😭😭😭 I’m not ready for this to end. This has change my life so much, thank you again so much Jorge❤️ 🐴👁️🌊🦁🧟⚡️⏳🔱❔ Edit: OVER 500 LIKES HOLY S-
O: You're going to call of that storm. P: Or what? You can't kill me. O: Exactly. I think this. This specific snippet is my all time favorite. The pure anger. The raw feelings. The realization. It's perfection.
600 strike was CRAZZYYYY! I totally didn’t expect that 😭 But the Vengeance Saga was wonderful, thank you to everyone who put so much work into it, and thank YOU Mr Jalapeño
The instrumentals?? The pure AGONY in Poseidon's voice??? The full circle moment that Poseidon started Ody's monster arc and ended up being the primary victim?? This was so SO GOOD
Same! Calypso is not a good person for what she did to Ody but it was also entirely understandable how that all came about and those feelings are real whether they're for just reasons or not
Jorge, I know we all talk a lot about the rest of the cast, and they were all truly amazing as usual, but I have to specifically say that YOUR performance, acting and singing combined, was absolutely phenomenal in this saga. Not that it isn’t always, but you really pushed yourself by running the full gamut of emotions here, and it paid off spectacularly.
REAL! Jay is literally the spinal cord, not just the back bone but also the brains and eyes with his vision it's amazing how he accomplished all this. Especially with some actors being long distsnce its amazing rly
Steven is amazing. I didnt think vocalizing torture was possible, but his cries of pain and pleads for Odysseus to stop, damn, I started feeling bad. Then i remembered that ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves. Such an amazing saga
There’s a reason why this musical is called because it is exactly that epic it not only has some of the catchiest songs it also has some of the coldest lines
I’m loving the symbolic lessons well learned situation. Poseidon is the one who taught Ody about ruthlessness and now he’s the one who has to deal with the devastating consequences.
God, I was freaking wincing with every stab he gave Poseidon… what a brutal scene, the animator really captured the brutality of the act of stabbing someone who can’t fight back anymore. That scene looked like it would be right at home in a series like God of War, just a brutalization of an already beaten opponent. I know it was necessary for Odysseus to finally reach home, but how absolutely deranged does Odysseus have to be at this point? That torture was premeditated, he knew exactly what he was going to do, from the moment he opened that bag…
The marketing has been teasing me about "Get in the Water" for so long that hearing Steven actually SAY IT made me almost faint. Bless wolfy also his art of Posi is yummylicious
Oh my gosh…can we all agree that Steven’s performance in the last song is so incredible?? Or am I going nuts?? He and all of the other vocals and animators did so amazing.
THE ARTISTS WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND IN THIS SAGA, IT’S LIKE THEY FORMED A SINGLE POWERFUL MIND TO CREATE ALL OF THESE AMAZING ANIMATIONS!! IT WAS SO CRAZY WATCHING THIS… MANY THANKS TO JORGE AND EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON IT🙏
Wow. Just wow. I knew Get in the Water would be a banger, I was waiting for this song the entire musical long but damn, somehow I'm still blown away. The ending not only perfectly sums up everything Odysseus has learned on his journey but also tells us exactly how his arc went. He tries to lend forgiveness to Poseidon at first but when he denies it he enacts his vengeance. When Poseidon finally said "Alright" he drops his weapon, enacting a last moment of mercy. From unconditional mercy, to unconditional ruthlessness to a balance. Whether that mirroring of Odysseus' arc was intentional or not, this is a masterpiece. I'm so glad I could be part of this listening/release party, it was a joy to be part of.
I like how the hardest fight by far is already over. So when King comes out, its basically like a postgame encounter that WOULD have been super difficult... Before you got the broken powerup from beating the final boss.
I was not expecting 600 Strike in the slightest. My god what a climax, I cannot wait for the finale. Every song and animatic was amazing, another 10/10 without question. Love you Jay and all the team who had a hand in this.
The fact that Ody was able to strike Poseidon six hundred times with a WOODEN SWORD (from what it looked like) in the air.. at such a quick speed.. That was such a badass move, this was such a badass saga..
@@elijahcole6786 i thought there was gonna be some kind of blessing odysseus got from exploiting a loophole in zeus' ruling, but no, apparently odysseus is just Him
Yeah as I remember it, during the Trojan war both Ares and Aphrodite was wounded by.. Agamemnon? I'm not sure entirely but it tickled a memory@@JustSomeone-2
Get in the Water was what introduced me to EPIC and I gotta say... I almost cried listening it!! was so good!!! Well worth the wait for the full version!!!
The synthy bass from Different Beasts hitting right as Ody paused and said, "You're going to call off that storm" was perfection! Add in, "How will you sleep at night?" "Next to my WIFE!" And this is the best ending out of all the sagas imo
@@Comment27560 I think logic went out the window when Odysseus saw his men brutally murdered, retaliated, and was chased down like a wild animal for 10 years over the same principles Poseidon's been preaching since day 1. And yeah, he did say, "You totally could have avoided all this had you just killed my son." But in OG mythology, he was willing to go to war with Ares because another of his sons raped Ares' daughter and Ares killed him for it. So Ody was in a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" scenario. There was no way to win the second he entered the caves.
When jorge said he would take artistic freedom to change the original myth if he wants, I wasnt expecting Odysseus beating Poseidon This caught me so off guard
Can't wait for the next Saga! Hopefully we can reach 200k viewers on the next Saga release stream! (Also thanks to Calypso for not crashing the stream this time!)
@@thisgirliscrazyweirdandlovesit You too! I was like frantically running through the parking lot with a crap ton of Halloween stuff in my hands like a crazy person.
Accidentally fell asleep and woke up to the start of dangerous, thought I missed everything till hermes spoke. Just saying I think now know how relieved odysseus felt when he heard hermes
Only you are able to make me laugh so hard one moment and let me cry the next This is why I LOVE epic! It’s so full of emotion, no one else can do it like you Jorge!!
This is going to go so hard when you're able to launch it in a movie or performance format. It's already so emotionally evocative and just WOW!!! 100/10 once again!
I just wanna say everyone who made the animations we all absolutely adored them. Thank you for all your hard work! Also jorge ty for giving us this absolute masterpiece of a musical! 💛💛

Oh yeah! The edit ideas were flowing the second i heard that song!
@@dreamydragon5670it is extremely toxic and calypso scares ne more then beastmode zeus
It's legit the gaslighter song
"Calling their captain in vain!" I broke down in tears 😭😭😭😭😭
The heat on the word "captain" hit me so hard. He's so pissed and for good reason
@@jp24stripes THAT WAS SO FREAKING SAD 😭😭😭
That hits me emotionally but my brain can't f-ing process whether I have to break down in tears or scream from the animation of Odysseus stabby-stabbing Poseidon with his trident and Poseidon's scream. MY F-ING BRAIN IS NOT FULLY FUNCTIONING IN THIS SAGA 😭😭😭😭😭
YES
I was in TEARS 😭
These Animators leveled up their EPIC skills to the test. Like Anniflamma using more color and Gigi having smooth frames and Gwendy giving us a cool anime animatic
And I was at school so ANIME ROCKS
Was NOT expecting Ye Olde Jetpack but you go Odysseus! 🌪️
ye olde jet pack 😭🙏
Ah yes, the ye olde jet pack.
omgggg 😭😭😭
Second time he had to open the windbag he was instructed NOT TO OPEN to beat Poseidon. With Poseidon's own storm.
Calipso: I love you
Odysseus: no thanks
Calypso: *forces herself upon him for multiple years*
Odysseus: yeah no I still don’t love you
Calypso: BUT WHY
This is a reversal of typical patriarchy
0:00 Intro

38:07 It's time for Vengeance (Saga)
54:17 Outro
The amount of actual pure fear and dread I felt when Odysseus picked up the trident…that was horrifying…the screams of Poseidon…oh. my. goodness
You’d never think that he would be tortured but considering he can’t die, it’s fitting. But I also never expected him to beg for Ody to stop
@@RoseFoster19997you're right! I mean in Greek myth it's more that the gods can't die, not that they can't be hurt. Prometheus for example, that's his life story, and he's a titan. He's being tortured for eternity because he can't die. He just keeps getting his insides torn out and eaten, only for them to regrow and the process to begin again the next day
@@elijahcole6786 not to mention diomedes was able to spear both ares and aphrodite in the trojan war with the aid of athena

Torturing Poseidon until he begged for Odysseus to stop was _NOT_ on my EPIC: The Musical bingo card for tonight
saaaame
Welp I got insta spoiled lmao (TH-cam's fault)
@@emilis4323I AM SO SORRY FOR YOU
I am so glad I didn’t open the comments
After watching it I still was surprised somehow, literally just forgot this comment until Poseidon started begging
fr
IM SO PISSED THE MUSIC WAS SO GOOD AND I FELL ASLEEP DURING ACT ONE AND MISSED THE SECOND LIVE
SAME
I felt asleep 20 min before the whole livestream started
ME TOOO I FELL ASLEEP HALFWAY THROUGH RUTYLESSNESS AND WOKE UP SO MAD
See this is why I drank coffee and couldn’t sleep until two hours AFTER the livestream finished. School today’s gonna be great!
I fell asleep for the new part I was so mad and woke up at 1 am to finish watching it
BRO, THIS SHOOK ME... I CRIED. THAT
"How will you sleep at night?"
"... Next to my wife."
GAVE ME CHILLS 😭😭
I had literal chills all over my skin for the entirety of the saga OMAIGAAAAAAD
i yelled out OH MY GOD
FR
My jaw literally dropped for 2 minutes
Yes
I love the detail that the part where the crew would usually reply in the "full speed ahead" melody (IDK what it's called) is so conspicuously silent 😭😭😭
I almost cried
I never realized how badly I need a reprise/cover of monster with Steven Rodriguez... until I heard Poseidon say that single word, Ody was cold bro. 🙏

"How will you sleep at night?" -Posiedon.
Better question, how will WE sleep tonight?!
Thank you so much for another great saga Mr. Jalapeño!
That’s the catch….we won’t. But seriously this saga was so incredibly well done and I’m sad we only have one more left
I got fluffy blankets and hot coco
Same as usual for me then.
Together ( there are other ways)
Facts
This was an absolute emotional rollercoaster.
I really felt for Calypso when she switched from being not sorry for loving him to breaking down and questioning why she ever loved him and finally what to do with all the love she amassed for Odysseus. That was heartbreaking.
Odysseus finally became the MONSTER and Posideon felt true FEAR. All it took for forgiveness and this would have been over but his darn pride. It's not like they killed his son.
He really took An Eye For An Eye way out of proportion.
My Epic Journey has absolutely been magical and I can't wait for the Final Saga. Thank you Mr. Jorge and The EPIC Team for this masterpiece 🎉🎉
Epic is one of the few productions that will ALWAYS be underrated, no matter how popular it gets
100%
When you are so much a monster that a God declares you to be one...
- shivers -
I feel like I just saw the moment Odysseus completed his transformation into a demon. Tiresias really meant it when he said Odysseus would no longer be who he was when he drew his final breath.
THIS
I mean personally, if I think if he was a true monster He would’ve done more when Poseidon begged him to stop he gave him mercy unlike Poseidon to him.
Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves, Mortal
...
Okay now I feel that you're taking it a bit far?
😂
Whoever drew Odysseus in that part of No Longer You with red eyes is the real prophet here
I mean there is still something less because unlike Poseidon he actually did show mercy at the end after letting him beg a little. So thankfully he isn't a 100% gone
Going from Hermes' lighthearted quest giving to Odyseuss torturing POSEIDON. What an arc. Also Poseidon's voice is just absolutely incredible
"HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE HELPLESS!?"
I STOPPED BREATHING AT THAT MOMENT, KEEP THIS UP JORGE THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGG!!
Except he isn't helpless and could still kill Odysseus right then if he wasn't being stupid and did literally anything. Like Im sorry Poseidon could do literally anything and Odysseus has a high likely hood of dying on accident Poseidon didn't even try to fight back which is dumb.
Like I love the saga but that ending scene is so dumb to me.
@@joshuafrazier3904hey, the power of the Olympians is not infinite. Who's to say Poseidon wasn't exhausted?
@@Nechrostriker4 Yeah, Poseidon used a good amount of his power for the storm, then used his God move (strongest move of the Gods), then got slashed a bunch of times by Ody's own super move, there's also the possibility that restrictions were placed on him cos of Zeus deciding to release Ody. Poseidon used too much of his energy to fight back at that point.
600 Strike was so dark, and I loved it. I’m the kind of person who believes in an eye for an eye, and Poseidon doesn’t have enough stab wounds yet. Also, “Next to my wife” was the PERFECT response to Poseidon asking how he’ll sleep at night
I mean Odysseus literally did the definition of an eye for an eye... Poseidon killed his men he took out his left eye.
Yes he should stab him 600 times
Calypso story is heart breaking. She was punished so harshly for just being a good daughter.
600 Strikes ending was my favorite moment in epic.. the vocals from both Jorge and Stephen were absolutely powerful!
Same!!!
Same and I agree!!!
NO ONE is talking about “And I will get back to my WIIIIFE” and that is killing me i really think it’s my favorite line read of the whole saga! Jorge you are just so insanely talented and I am so glad I was born at just the right time to experience the brilliant light you bring to the world
I'm hoping Jorge didn't blow his voice out doing that because I can imagine doing repeated takes like that when you're not a gravelly singer can do that.
So we’re all talking about six hundred strike but I want to talk about that SILENCE at the beginning of Dangerous. Because after that he says “No fleet, no band” and there LITERALLY is no band, just Ody’s sad guitar
Only one more saga left…😭😭😭
I’m not ready for this to end. This has change my life so much, thank you again so much Jorge❤️
🐴👁️🌊🦁🧟⚡️⏳🔱❔
Edit: OVER 500 LIKES HOLY S-
Sameee
I don’t want this to end, I’m not ready for that 😭
right?! I'm in preemptive mourning 😭
Technically could of used 👁
I’m excited but I also don’t want it to happen at the same time😭 why does it have to end 😭😭
I hope after this he starts showing us the progress of bringing this master piece to the stage
This man cannot just calmly say “Goodnight.” After he just dropped a bomb like that in us. This guy is crazy…
And I love it💜
I wouldn't call his sign-off a calm one. More like delerious, which who can blame him?
"in" us?
Bro the only thing going in is Odysseus today iykwim
O: You're going to call of that storm.
P: Or what? You can't kill me.
O: Exactly.
I think this. This specific snippet is my all time favorite. The pure anger. The raw feelings. The realization. It's perfection.
600 strike was CRAZZYYYY! I totally didn’t expect that 😭 But the Vengeance Saga was wonderful, thank you to everyone who put so much work into it, and thank YOU Mr Jalapeño
I'm terrified of Odysseus...
@@GwenGeorge-n2y Completely understandable, I am too 😭
@@GwenGeorge-n2yFRRR I ACTUALLY FELT BAD FOR POSEIDON
@GwenGeorge-n2y I'm not, he earned that
The suitors are dead meat when he finds out what they’ve been up to
The instrumentals?? The pure AGONY in Poseidon's voice??? The full circle moment that Poseidon started Ody's monster arc and ended up being the primary victim?? This was so SO GOOD
Did not expect "not sorry for loving you" to hit that hard.
Another amazing saga🤩
It's my favorite part 😭🤎
It’s amazing how fleshed out of a character she is after only 2 songs. Can’t help but feel bad for her
Same! Calypso is not a good person for what she did to Ody but it was also entirely understandable how that all came about and those feelings are real whether they're for just reasons or not
I love that song because I hate Calypso so much but I also feel really bad for her, she's such an amazing sympathetic villain!
I feel so much for her, she's done her best to care for him, treat him well, but it doesn't matter. He keeps going back.
That music during Poseidon’s reveal…IT WAS SO GOOD
Also did anyone see the face under Ody’s raft or was that just me
Literally paused me for a moment
I literally had goosebumps
That piano had my full attention my God it sounded so good
@@MJG-om3ihTimestamp???
Jorge, I know we all talk a lot about the rest of the cast, and they were all truly amazing as usual, but I have to specifically say that YOUR performance, acting and singing combined, was absolutely phenomenal in this saga. Not that it isn’t always, but you really pushed yourself by running the full gamut of emotions here, and it paid off spectacularly.
REAL! Jay is literally the spinal cord, not just the back bone but also the brains and eyes with his vision it's amazing how he accomplished all this. Especially with some actors being long distsnce its amazing rly
Most definitely the emotion was out of this world and it shows how much you love your work so much ❤❤❤
42:11 Jorge just dancing to 'Dangerous' is a vibe😆
I had SOOOO much fun working with you, Jay! Thank you, and thank you all for showing up to support such an amazing project 🥹
you did a crazy good job its wild
Your work Is awesomeeeeee
Your arts really are samsational
Omg arg was so good!!!!
@@CelesteWysteria thank you so much 🥹✨✨
Steven is amazing. I didnt think vocalizing torture was possible, but his cries of pain and pleads for Odysseus to stop, damn, I started feeling bad. Then i remembered that ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves. Such an amazing saga
There’s a reason why this musical is called because it is exactly that epic it not only has some of the catchiest songs it also has some of the coldest lines
I’m loving the symbolic lessons well learned situation. Poseidon is the one who taught Ody about ruthlessness and now he’s the one who has to deal with the devastating consequences.
38:10 I'M NOT SORRY FOR LOVING YOU???? OH MY GOD???? WANGUIS VOICE WAS *chefs kiss* SO BEAUTIFUL AND SMOOTH
LITERALLY I WAS LITERALLY CRYING AHHHH
"Look what you turned me into!!"
JORGE!!!😭😭😭😭
God, I was freaking wincing with every stab he gave Poseidon… what a brutal scene, the animator really captured the brutality of the act of stabbing someone who can’t fight back anymore.
That scene looked like it would be right at home in a series like God of War, just a brutalization of an already beaten opponent.
I know it was necessary for Odysseus to finally reach home, but how absolutely deranged does Odysseus have to be at this point? That torture was premeditated, he knew exactly what he was going to do, from the moment he opened that bag…
The marketing has been teasing me about "Get in the Water" for so long that hearing Steven actually SAY IT made me almost faint. Bless wolfy also his art of Posi is yummylicious
DAMMNNNNNNNN!!! the last talk between posaidon and odysseus... Is one of the best stuff from this entire musical!!!!!
Oh my gosh…can we all agree that Steven’s performance in the last song is so incredible?? Or am I going nuts?? He and all of the other vocals and animators did so amazing.
Fr like damn majestic asf
He was incredible! And Jay always delivers on the vocals!
The winion Princess in dangerous was something i DIDN'T expect (also jorge writing the title as the wisdom saga LMAO)
I want a plushie of the Princess Winion so bad!
THE ARTISTS WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND IN THIS SAGA, IT’S LIKE THEY FORMED A SINGLE POWERFUL MIND TO CREATE ALL OF THESE AMAZING ANIMATIONS!!
IT WAS SO CRAZY WATCHING THIS… MANY THANKS TO JORGE AND EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON IT🙏
SPOILERS FOR LAST SONG
-
“After everything you’ve done, how will you sleep at night?”
“next to my wife.”
AAAAAAAAA GET HIM ODYY
FRRR
HAHA I LOVED THAT TOO
REALLLL LIKE OMGG
Straight up gagged Poseidon, no words!!!
Wow. Just wow.
I knew Get in the Water would be a banger, I was waiting for this song the entire musical long but damn, somehow I'm still blown away. The ending not only perfectly sums up everything Odysseus has learned on his journey but also tells us exactly how his arc went. He tries to lend forgiveness to Poseidon at first but when he denies it he enacts his vengeance. When Poseidon finally said "Alright" he drops his weapon, enacting a last moment of mercy. From unconditional mercy, to unconditional ruthlessness to a balance. Whether that mirroring of Odysseus' arc was intentional or not, this is a masterpiece.
I'm so glad I could be part of this listening/release party, it was a joy to be part of.
Hey I think this guy has a point
“Don’t you know that danger is my friend” is the best line in dangerous
"How will you sleep at night?"
*"Next to my wife."*
ULTIMATE FRICKING MIC DROPS.
Just… *HOLY SHIT.*
@@AhsokaJackson FACTS I WAS LIKE IN TEARS AND LAUGHING AT THE SAME TIME
MIC DROP 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I dont know if to laugh or cry
I like how the hardest fight by far is already over. So when King comes out, its basically like a postgame encounter that WOULD have been super difficult... Before you got the broken powerup from beating the final boss.
I was not expecting 600 Strike in the slightest. My god what a climax, I cannot wait for the finale. Every song and animatic was amazing, another 10/10 without question. Love you Jay and all the team who had a hand in this.
Best moment in the saga 53:06 just this massive catharsis for Odysseus as he finally gets revenge for his crew!
Agreed. That line just sends chills through me
The fact that Ody was able to strike Poseidon six hundred times with a WOODEN SWORD (from what it looked like) in the air.. at such a quick speed..
That was such a badass move, this was such a badass saga..
How was it even possible that hurt him??! My mouth was hanging open
@@elijahcole6786 i thought there was gonna be some kind of blessing odysseus got from exploiting a loophole in zeus' ruling, but no, apparently odysseus is just Him
@@VimyGlideI’m pretty sure gods/goddesses can be hurt by normal weapons like swords, they just can’t be killed by them.
@@JustSomeone-2 that would track with the iliad, actually
Yeah as I remember it, during the Trojan war both Ares and Aphrodite was wounded by.. Agamemnon? I'm not sure entirely but it tickled a memory@@JustSomeone-2
The "600 men" part at the beginning of "Dangerous" without the Crew singing their Response to Odysseus... hits more than expected
Get in the Water was what introduced me to EPIC and I gotta say... I almost cried listening it!! was so good!!! Well worth the wait for the full version!!!
The synthy bass from Different Beasts hitting right as Ody paused and said, "You're going to call off that storm" was perfection!
Add in, "How will you sleep at night?" "Next to my WIFE!" And this is the best ending out of all the sagas imo
Tho logically , posidon can just again raise that storm after Odysseus gets to his palace
I mean ik Greek mythology don't make sense
But still
@@Comment27560 did you forget about what happens to people who break their oaths
@@Diana1-c3q can you tell me?
@@Comment27560 I think logic went out the window when Odysseus saw his men brutally murdered, retaliated, and was chased down like a wild animal for 10 years over the same principles Poseidon's been preaching since day 1.
And yeah, he did say, "You totally could have avoided all this had you just killed my son." But in OG mythology, he was willing to go to war with Ares because another of his sons raped Ares' daughter and Ares killed him for it. So Ody was in a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" scenario. There was no way to win the second he entered the caves.
When jorge said he would take artistic freedom to change the original myth if he wants, I wasnt expecting Odysseus beating Poseidon
This caught me so off guard
Can't wait for the next Saga! Hopefully we can reach 200k viewers on the next Saga release stream!
(Also thanks to Calypso for not crashing the stream this time!)
Is there another one?
@@Vikasiiesone more to go!
I stayed the whole 2 lives!! Anyone else?
Present✋🏼 although I did miss the first two songs cause I was buying Halloween stuff at Spirit Halloween
@@mystic472 Nice! 👍🏾 happy Halloween btw!
Samee
@@thisgirliscrazyweirdandlovesit You too! I was like frantically running through the parking lot with a crap ton of Halloween stuff in my hands like a crazy person.
Accidentally fell asleep and woke up to the start of dangerous, thought I missed everything till hermes spoke. Just saying I think now know how relieved odysseus felt when he heard hermes
Only you are able to make me laugh so hard one moment and let me cry the next
This is why I LOVE epic! It’s so full of emotion, no one else can do it like you Jorge!!
The fact that we got like, 5 consecutive spin shots from Gigi in not sorry for loving you, wow, you do be cooking ❤
53:53 THE SCREAM I LET OUT
Woah, i had goosebumps when he said get in the water. Ody went super saiyan! Wow what a saga. Thank you everyone
43:22 why is no one talking about Hermes’ twerking….?
I SAW LOL
My GoD what i saw XD
Because it's totally in character
coz we were traumatized by that monster in the end 😥
Hermes: Its like Im not wearing nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all
Odysseus: Stupid sexy Hermes...
The ending was INSANE!!! You are so talented and this saga is amazing!! Also, ✨HERMES✨
I will now be making this saga my entire personality for a few months 💅
That was so unbelievably cringe, you guys cannot be serious that you liked it
This is going to go so hard when you're able to launch it in a movie or performance format. It's already so emotionally evocative and just WOW!!! 100/10 once again!
I just wanna say everyone who made the animations we all absolutely adored them. Thank you for all your hard work! Also jorge ty for giving us this absolute masterpiece of a musical! 💛💛
Lots of love from all your listeners
DUDE SIX HUNDRED STRIKE WAS SO WORTH THE WAIT THANK YOU JORGE
Right?!
I‘ll never get enough of EPIC AHHHHH
Calypso‘s song- and everything else just gave me CHILLS. Ody really ate and left no crumbs.
I can’t wait to hear from Athena again - but last I checked goddesses can’t die… right? RIGHT? 😭♥️
Jorge, I hope you drink a cup of calming tea and tuck yourself to catch up on the sleep now that this saga has premiered
