- ok, but why was this video the hardest thing I've ever done ever. Not even joking, part of what took it so long to come out is that I was just struggling to make some parts of it. If you only saw the timeline on my editing program, oh god. It was a mess. But it's here :D

Odysseus: Fuck it we ball
Hermes: Blasting the Weeknd at full volume
The best *Great-grandson and Great-grandfather* moment
The weekend sung by Harry Styles
Odysseus: “what melody is this?”
Hermes: “you mortals will get it in 2000 years.”
I love how the animation community came to the conclusion that Hermes has an ever-present pair of shades.
It also reeeally jives with the 80s-nostalgia Synthwave theme of this song.
In a modern-setting story you'd expect this melody for some scene in an 80s car driving towards a purple and pinkish sky during sunset, palm trees, street lights and beaches flying by, intercut with shots of the protag at the wheel wearing such shades.
Pretty sure his voice actor put on shades for the first part of this song
It’s not too out there since Polities fanonically wears regular glasses
Yeah Hermes having his covered / not visible is as constant as all of the characters being taller than Odysseus
@@justtj8085 I am a fan of Odysseus always being a short king (literally). I love him
Okay, but does anyone else think the actor for Hermes should be wearing roller skates in the stage production for Epic? Like, they could have little wings on the side and everything! I just think Hermes being able to move so much faster and more smoothly than other characters would work so well visually
YES
NO WAYYY, IWAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Fair! But I raise you heelies, which would be safer for the actors.
NO JOKE THOUGH my 5th grade class's play was a musical compilation of Greek myths, and our Hermes was, in fact, on roller blades with foam wings attached to the ankles (this was the 90s so yes they were full skates and not heelies)
We NEED Jay to hear about this. This seems like a critical addition that needs to be a feature.
i like the idea Hermes made the tiny boat travel fast when the beat drop. Hermes is god of travel and his blessing is probably the one blessing odyseuss reallly needs the most, and is probably the only reason he's alive.
i know Hermes helped twice but considering Hermes is god of travellers and hospitality, thievery and cunning, heralds and diplomacy, on top of a messenger of the gods and a psychopomp, Odyseuss's life clearly far more suited to be under Hermes' patronage. i suppose the fact that Hermes is Odyseuss's granpa made it redundant and well, as a warrior, a favor of a war goddess is much more preferable.
well i mean he's still on the sea, so if Posideon noticed, his ship would go under
He is also Odysseus's great grandpa, so there's some more incentive to help him out.
I just read this comment again, and I just thought about it. Literally, what Odysseus wants desperately is to go home to his wife and son.... and what better way to start his positive path back to it with a piece of home? Hermes, the best travel companion to him now with all that has happened and is part of his family to lead him home. Still rocking to this song as I was thinking it over xD
@@AtsukaWolfcat well since Athena dumped him / ditched him (Depending on your POV) he needs a new godly BFF and hermes is a lot more willing to be your friend~
@@alakazamlover4908B on the other side, Hermes is the god of trickery, and Odysseus on a small raft. Poseidon doesn´t know or gives his blessing. The Odysseé made made it relatively clear, that Poseidon forgave him beforehand.
YALL. when hermes laughs, i hear the surfer fish from spongebob
stop it’s literally the exact same-💀
WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT 💀
@@hymnbos You are 😭
I think that's who he modeled it after
BYEE I HAD TO WATCH A VIDEO FOR COMPARISON AND ITS SO SIMMILAR RDNAYABSBW
I can't NOT look at Hermes and think of the surfer fish-
I love Odysseus and Hermes dynamic here Ahh
The way it transitions to "dangerous" is smooth as butter
BECUASE OF THIS ANIMATIC IM NOW OBSESSED WITH THEIR DYNAMIC
Fun fact: Odysseus is actually Hermes great-grandson!
Like a criminal under cover
HECK YES
It’s funnier when you remember that Hermes was Odysseus’ great grandfather
One of the things I adore is the differences between Athena and Hermes.
Athena is a strict teacher and Odysseus was one of her first serious students that she invested in. She accepts nothing but the very best, expects wisdom no matter what, and doesn't allow for mistakes. That said, every intervention of hers was directly helpful and meant to help Odysseus along, often stepping in between gods when she did so.
But when she leaves, Odysseus isn't alone because cool grampa Hermes has Odysseus' back. He's not trying to teach, he's not trying to mentor, he's nothing but supportive and EVERY action he takes is to even out the odds Odysseus faces.
And the WEIRD thing is, in the musical I get the sense that Odysseus wanted the opposite to happen. He wanted Athena to be cool aunt friend, and he reacts perfectly to Hermes trickster-mentor tendencies.
Also honestly even if they weren't related, Hermes is the god of travellers and man Odysseus travels a lot
The reason Odysseus reacted that way to the gods, is probably because of their dynamics. Athena helps him in battle, so he treats her like he does a fellow soldier because that's what he's used to. Hermes is his great grandfather and gives him assistance only in his most desperate times of need. He's a trickster too, which makes it hard to really become close to him as his intentions are never really clear.😅😅
The fact that he’s (probably) got no idea that Hermies is his grandfather is so funny cuz he’s so confused on why this random god keeps helping him & Hermies is just living for how confused he is and therefore never bothers to tell him. 😂
OMG YESS, I LVE FOR THIS KINDA DRAMA!
(great)grandfather, no?
Huh, I always figured Hermes helped Odysseus because he was the God of Travelers and all, and Odysseus is, well, a traveler
@@cristrollelgeekmaster4674 Its probably both. He's aiding a traveler because its his domain but he's eager to help and goes beyond what he would normally do because Odysseus is blood
I legit had no idea Odysseus was descended from Hermes, but I do remember the Iliad repeatedly calling him "son of Laertes and descendant of Zeus"
0:38 the color choices here fit sooo well with the 80s ass synth inexplicably in the backtrack here, its giving it all a very vaporwave vibe
And it’s bisexual
@@enigma3238and its bisexual!
Ikr?! I don't understand the necessity of exposing sexuality in everything, it's such 80's colors vibes and it's okay being just that, nothing at the situation needs sexuality implying
@@sammypierce6079It's not that deep. There's a joke about "bisexual lighting" because a lot of films use pink, blue, and purple in scenes that are the same colors as the bi flag. That's why people say bisexual lighting
@@sammypierce6079you are aware that Epic starts with The Illiad, right?
Hermes has the vibe of a car salesman that really loves his job. I don't know how to explain it.
No, no. You’re explaining it fine and you’re absolutely right.
Hermes is like the car warranty message you receive once in a while except it's a good thing here
1:00 You can really feel the grandson-grandparent bond in this scene. Like it has that feeling that Hermes(even tho it’s kinda his entire personality) is trying to be jazzy to smooth it down and kind of cheer Odysseus up and he’s like “Okay fine. I’m sold.” And when Odysseus agrees Hermes has that face that’s like “O MY GOSH I KNEW IT I’M THE COOLEST GRANDPA EVER” Definitely one of my favorite god-hero interactions in the entire musical.
I love the way you characterize Hermes, his movements are just so fun and carefree like a kid playing and it fits his personality!!
Ó
God I love how you draw Hermes. His little happy face when Odysseus agrees to his plans. The perfect 😄 you're truly incredible!
I liked that Hermes gave Odysseus a choice. Most Greek gods would just say 'This is what I want you to do.' Expect the mortal to comply and they start inflicting divine retribution if they didn't.
But Hermes lays it out like; 'this will get you home to your wife and son, but it's really dangerous, what do you want to do?'
*Yes! He's gone for it! My time to shine!*
@@dromankass8655Well he loves his grandson
Fun Mythology fact: Odysseus is actually Hermes's great-grandson. Odysseus grandfather was Autolycus, a son of Hermes, a thief and trickster who could shapeshift.
But Odysseus has no abilities, despite his great-grandfather in the form of the god of messages
@user-oi1os8zj1f you would surprised by how many demigods (who were direct children of gods) had no actual powers, a major example was Helen of Troy who was the daughter of Zeus and had no powers at all (don't let Percy Jackson fool you, demigods getting powers was rare, and most often you got the lamest powers, like being a child of Poseidon would just make it so that you were really good at horseback riding)
That... makes a lot of sense where Sisyphus's immense skill at fucking with Hades comes from now... (Sisyphus in some versions is Odysseus's father)
The guy from the 90s Herculese/Xena series? He was pretty rad! I don't think he could shapeshift in the universe of those shows though.
@@naturegreenr4757 maybe he got his silver tongue from his grandfather 😂😂😂
0:01 bro just experienced high tide
Hermes: 🐬/🐴
Oh Ody looks so very disheveled and _done_ it's so satisfying to see Hermes put a lil smile on his weary face. Excellent work as always!
i’m OBSESSED with your Hermes hes so much fun 🤩- “wait for the beat drop” - also i love how short Odysseus always is it’s like a requirement - and the fact that at this point in his journey he’s all… fluffy lol
he's also really fine -
Hermes summoning bisexual lighting is absolutely in character and I will hear no different
I read this comment.
I agree. My ears are officially closed.
I was thinking something along these lines
Bisexual?
E-fucking-xactly it is amazing, it fits so well when hermes is the type of god to swing ether way just because and the lighting gives the vibe of some type of mystic energy that enhances it further
@@cookieaddict5956the colors 💀
Odysseus vibing with his great grandpappy will never stop being hilarious.
The fluidity of Hermes’ movements really shows his character- laid back relaxed and super chill. He’s like that one fun uncle Yk? Athena’s movements on the other hand are more calculated and regal in a way. Lol just saw the differences and felt like commenting about it I could do a full fletched analysis but I’m too lazy
Honestly I'm LIVING for your characters designs for this musical holy sh- I love the vibe your art brings to the song
One thing that's been on my mind every time I listen to this song. Hermes is fast because he's a messenger for the Gods, Goddesses, and Demigods. I always wonder if he can just pick Odysseus up on his back and carry him back home. But then again, the omnipotent beings can't interfere with a person's fate or lifestyle and watch for the outcome (or simply didn't want to get involved). Or the gods were still punishing/ cursing him like Poseidon. Plus, Hermes probably didn't want to piss off any uncles or aunts of his aiding Odysseus. Amazing animation!!
Hermes is also Odysseus's great grandfather, so he could easily just be like, "Ah, ah, ah, don't you dare touch my great grandson!"
0:52 is just so beautiful... Like, idk, it fills me with joy. Your Hermes has so much personality, I love him
0:38
Hermes: bisexual lightning? In MY businesses pitch? More likely than you think
Nice nod to ULTRAKILL brother
My god I absolutely adore your Hermes design. He has so much ✨personality✨
This Hermes is an appropriate level of jazziness for this song. I approve.
ok but this song is finally in the next saga and i'm dying
I honestly don't know how you are seeing the bi flag, but it was not intentional (I mean, yall see whatever you wanna see, not telling you how to watch the video)
you NAILED hermes's personality PERFECTLY omg
I love the way you draw and animate facial expressions. Every single time they match not just with the lyrics, but with the inflection and tone of the singers. Odysseus's face at "why are you here?" Cracks me up.
I’ve watched this so many times and every time I hear and see Hermes’s silly little laugh at the beginning I just smile. Because its just so fitting that he has an absolutely dorky little laugh like that.
0:43 At first I thought it the two people were a young Odysseus and Penelope. Nope, it's Telemachus!
It's a yahoo for me, brother/sister/non gender specific person.
I love how messy odyssyus's beard is, and hiw excited hermes is when he says he's in. He's so proud.
0:20 idk why, but the way he says “wash it away” is literally my favorite part, it’s sounds so cool 😭
Ok but this Hermes design and the way he moves make him seem like the type of person who finds tea and starts drama with it. 😂😂
So happy that Odysseus gets along with his Great-Grandpa Hermes!
Your hermes is literally the best thing ever
This looks so good! I love the dynamic animation, the poses and expressions 🤌
Hermes waiting for the beat drop XD
The animation of Hermes making the raft sail very fast is so cool
Love Ody and Hermes' expression at the end "Alright, I'm in. What do I do?" and Hermes getting so excited after these words XD❤
Spectacular animatic, as always ❤❤❤
I LOVE HOW YOU MADE HIM LIKE FLY THROUGH THE SKY WHEN THE CHORUS CAME IN OMG-
I love Hermes' voice so much and the design for him is amazing
I just ✨exploded✨ with happiness when I read the title, I knew this would be awesome and I was NOT disappointed!
"Oh my! You look a mess!" I love that I can just hear the accent in that.
Damn it, your Hermès looks so charming, this almost looks romantic… I mean, I know they’re grandparent and grandchild, there’s something almost fond in the way they look at each other. Affectionate, light-hearted.
Well- it's not as bad as you think it is, the Greek gods are pretty messed up when it comes to relationships, Zeus married his sister and even slept with his grandson's wife. So don't feel strange, although what you mention is indeed pretty strange.
Lovely work as usual, gigi! The 'wait for the beat drop' moment was hilarious and yet you transition to more emotional moments with Penelope and Telemachus smoothly!
ugh, I’m OBSESSED with this! I keep finding myself coming back to this video. Literally everything from the animation, to the character design, it’s so good. I can’t wait for the full version! Thank you for feeding us hungry fans 🙏
I'm just literally obsessed with this animatic. Like I just can't stop watching it. I love the way hermes is designed and how he moves and just. ugh. im literally mesmerized??
can i just take a moment out of everybodys day to appreciate the bi lighting? hermes took a few male lovers in his myths so i think it's great to see that and the synth music in the background.
Hermes' smile is so cute♥︎ I think I feel that way more because he was the one I loved the most among the actual male gods in mythology:) Thank you for the always great anime videos!
i really really love your ermes design, it gives him both the vibe of a god, like you know he is an ally but he also looks like a guy ready to rob ya. wonderful work as always!!!
I love this so much. I’ve looped it so many times. Your character designs are so good, especially Hermes with his sunglasses and general vibe. My favorite part is when he waits for the beat to drop and then the perspective changes and the boat starts going faster- so good. And the twirl he does with his staff is so cool! It’s very satisfying to watch
Love how Odysseus was like when he saw Hermes. So casual.
This is so damn cute!! I adore Hermes' eyes when they shine through its such a lovely detail
This looks so good and is so fun! I love the transitions to Penelope and Telemachus and all the transitions overall, really. Very clever yet in character. Odysseus rolling his eyes too XD
The 80s montage kid in me is jamming out like crazy right now
ive been rewatching both of hermes songs because number 1.
GIGIS DESIGN FOR HIM IS THE VIBE
and 2.
the laughs and the songs are too good.
I LOVE HOW HERMES INTERACTS WITH THE VIEUWER THAT JUST FITS HIS CHARACTER SM
his last little "be dangerous" !! and the little dance and pose over odysseus' shoulder ! and the eyeroll !!!! oh my god i love this so much
I like to think that Hermes under the helmet looks exactly like a young Odysseus because they are supposed to be doppelgangers
Now I’m imagining Odysseus being a character in “That’s Not My Neighbor” and one time, instead of Odysseus, Hermes just shows up.
the bisexual lighting is indeed required thank u sm for this
I live for the little dance Hermes does at 0:56 omg
1:01 Hermes' little "oh mi gosh!" face when he agrees is so damn adorable I love it 😭💕
I fucking ADORE this; Hermes is so fun to watch and your camera angles are to die for!!
His little dance at the end is so cute
Guys. I am so unbelievably attracted to Hermes. This is an issue because I don't know what to do with this. There are virtually zero fics about this man and I'm sad now.
I just wanna mention that I love the Hermes' funky synth! It sounds like a Midnights song ❤
Your art style is so cool! , The vibe of this vids make me feel like it's a Great Adventure trips of Ody and his great-grandpapa , thanks you for making all this !
Your animatics are so amazingly done, and i absolutely adore this one! Stellar work! the beat drop was SO SMOOTH, i cant even
Why is every single song that Hermes is in so incredibly catchy
Beautiful coloring and also, especially after the Wisdom Saga, it’s REALLY nice to see Hermes manage to get a smile out of Odysseus
hermes gets bisexual lighting, nice
LITERALLY WAS JUST LISTENING TO THIS MINUTES AGO, IMAGINE MY SURPRISE WHEN I REFRESHED MY TAB AND SAW THIS FHUEIHFKUE you portrayed hermes so well, great work as always!! :>>
I think your Hermes is my favourite, the way he moves is SO PERFECT 😭
I love that in every animatic I've seen of his songs, Hermes always has shades / obscured eyes and turns the background bisexual
I love Hermes' accent omg. Your animation REALLY encompasses his personality I love it sm!!
God this is my favourite animatic and song from EPIC
i wish it was longer man xD
This animatic is just pure perfection to me I love it so much
0:00 am I the only one who heard “leave”?
0:35
Thought we wouldn't notice the bisexual color scheme but we did
If their was a single genre of music to associate the Greek gods with 80’s Techno would absolutely be Hermes type of music
Odysseus: I gotta fight for the freedom of my men
Hermes: OH my bisexual lightning
I just noticed that Odysseus still has Polites headband on after all this time.😢😢😢
Edit: Love your animatics
OH MY GODS
Love the bisexual lighting in your animatics anytime Hermes shows up! I still think it'd be fun if he was in like, a modern Hawaiian shirt and board shorts. Not anyone else, just him.
Love to see a great grandson and great grandfather bond
The bopping of the boat in time with the beat brings me a ridiculous amount of joy 🤩
Always nice to see a an animatic of Hermes helping his Great-grandson.
(This was so good OMfksoakdbdnakan)
bro I need the annimation when the beat drops as a background or something adsifwokd
I love the “wait for the beat drop” Hermes would SO be the type to just interrupt his conversation like that
your art and designs for all the characters are just so gorgeous too I’ve been binging your animations.
By far my favorite song in EPIC, can’t wait until it releases. Also I love the way you draw Odysseus
Head-cannon: Hermes owns every pair of light-up sketchers in existent
I don't know why, but I feel like hermes can break the fourth wall whenever he wants.
Hermes radiate pure gremlin energy
Hermes design and animation is on point and adorable great job! It still needs to be said the singer did not need to pop off as hard as he does playing Hermes
I love that you used the guy actually voicing Hermes in the musical for this
Hello Gigi! It's been a while! I really love going back to watch your animatics every time I need inspiration to get out of a creative block ^^ When I realized I already had a new Spanish adaptation for this song! Would it be okay if I use this video to upload a new cover from fans to fans? Ofc I'll be giving the credits to your incredible work!
PS: I love your work, keep it up!
Man, Hermes in this just seems like such a fun guy to hang out with
YESSS I SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THIS POST! Your art is incredible and this has become one of my favorite songs! Thank you!! I know how much work and time this must have taken!
The building retrowave evokes this feeling of sitting down at an arcade and the start of one of those racing games. And thats exactly what Hermes is setting up, Odysseus's final race home and to the gods its all a game.
i love this so muchhh omg, this is one of my faves songs from the musical and now i love it 10x more 😭❤
hermes is such a silly dude and you capture that perfectly lmao, the colours when the beat drops and hermes guiding odysseus is just perfecttt
I think this is the my favorite Epic animatic yet! The transitions are so smooth and creative and I love how much character you put into their movements. Tysm for sharing your hard work!
Yay🎉 I was waiting for this! I love the playfulness of Hermes and how he manages to put a slight smile on the weary and exhausted Odysseus's face. That teasing grandpa vibe at 0:28 😂
