I love the contrast over how they speak with big and important words but are also so slow and forgetful in their speech, like they're dumb as rocks but someone gave them a thesaurus.
They are basically prehistoric sea cockroaches having a conversation while doing the equivalent of walking around a kitchen looking for food. The speech pattern avoids vagueness while using a few distinct words as possible. Words only become stretched out with multiple meanings if the words are being used to describe a wide variety of ideas. The Trilobytes have tiny brains that can only form certain limited thoughts, so their "words" don't get stretched out and still only have narrow, non-overlapping meanings. Someone with a Ph.D. is translating their thoughts into language and choosing the most precise word for every idea. There should be no synonyms, though the overlap between "edible material" and "snack" might be allowable given how food-oriented they would be. Some anthropomorphic ideas did creep into script though. The Trilobytes shouldn't be trying to teach each other lessons or pointing with legs. Corp should have smelled his buddy's last meal on him and followed a scent trail to it. He should be saying "You are poorly nourished. I should not follow you." Corp's buddy should have smelled Corp with his antenna and then decided to follow him because he is better nourished. Leadership isn't determined because they remember interacting with each other in the past. Also, even if they have good eyes, their eyes are pointed upwards and not forward. Having flat bodies close to the ground, they don't have the correct perspective to see off into the distance anyway. They should locate food by scent or feel and only very rarely by sight. The "flying ones" are more properly translated as "non-threatening shadows." The Trilobytes should also react to any threateningly-shaped shadows passing overhead just like cockroaches would today (though their efforts to run away might be comical because they are so slow unlike modern cockroaches). Edit: also the term "invertebrate" should be replaced by "worm." Proper vertebrates like we know them today weren't yet a thing in the Cambrian.

I didn‘t know its name, but it looked dangerous. And he, the trilobite, was so well nourished and selfconfident. Poor thing. Anomalocaris could only swallow soft prey. (See, I can google.)

Heh! Hilarious! Animalocaris eating Corb the Trilobite was the most unexpected thing, and Trilobites calling Opabinias "Flying one" was very cool! Sometimes being a Paleontogy nerd really makes you unserstand these jokes, lol! I hope we will get more of these! A Cretacious or Devonian episode would be awesome.
I love so much about this. The fact they use so sophisticated language but then struggle to find words for things only to then name them by describing the thing too good haha. Then the setting, the aesthetic, the sound just everything fits so perfectly its such a nice vibe. Very intriguing to watch I would love to see more of this!
Wow! Just happened to come across this channel. Very cute animations and hilariously funny, love the use Cambrian animals as characters. Please make more of these.
I like how simplistic these guys are. Not politics, no debates. Just two buddies surviving in the simplest time with understanding of each other. Like Klay World level agreements and simplicity. I love it
I do not have anything against politics, but things online with the political are out of control. Besides, I am just expressing how delightful this animation is.
I see my fallen brethren infront of me. Mangled, twitching, then still. I look at the husk that once contained him. My friend, my brother...his visera glistening and his blood trailing off to the sky. Cant say no to a snack.
Reminds me SO MUCH of Smiling Friends, specifically whenever Pim and Charlie are talking. You know the last episode where they're at the airport and they're all talking about what to do? Yeah, it reminds me of that scene which makes me absolutely LOVE this animation.
“The accessibility of that encounter is comfortable to me, and I like it” is Bojack Horseman level scary ❤ fantastic I feel malice towards one of my favorite creatures, visually, ever Why is Corb like that, stop (edit he stopped. Can’t say no to a snack 😊)
The one crab that gets -SPOILERS- sounds like Bateman from American Psycho. A 'Crab Bateman', if you will, but can actually have something akin to a friendship.
I just realized that the reason Corb was getting so annoyed with the Opabinia was that he had misophonia to the sound of chewing like a lot of people do.

With him saying “you can’t say no to a snack” at the end it implies one of two things: Cannibalism or He holds no grudge towards the anomalocaris.
they arent the same species.
Depends on the opinion but it doesn’t matter in the simplicity that is the Cambrian at the time.
both
well i mean that's some fine edible material right there
edit: minor spelling mistake, coping
perhaps both

You you just can’t
You could make an entire Adult Swim Show out of this concept.
i think they should, id watch it
“Im bothered to a high degree” im gonna quote that
This needs to become a series, the Cambrian is such a great time period to base something like this off of.
The internittent verbosity of these invertebrates is quite a pleasant experience to my evolved sensory apparatuses.
I hope lindsay nikole sees this. Just kept pointing out things that I learned from her Cambrian vid.
