Song: The moss - Cosmo Sheldrake
My old pinned comment disappeared for some reason so here's a new one
FAQ:
1: These are my own characters. No they are not from homestuck, deltarune, eddsworld, etc.
2: You can read the comic for this animation here! www.respawnstory.com/
3: TWs for the comic can be found here if needed: www.tumblr.com/respawnquestions/716420139532402688/what-are-the-tws-for-this-comic-it-seems-fun-from
4: I do not own the song. The song is "The Moss" by Cosmo Sheldrake
5: Please do not reupload! If you make an edit that is fine but please do not claim that the original is yours. Link this video in the description! (also, feel free to tag me I love seeing edits!)
6: Yes I know I misspelled it. It's been 4 years since I uploaded this.
7: This was made on flipnote 3d for the 3ds! Thats why its called a flipnote 3d animation.
7a: Unfortunately, I didn't make the video with the 3ds's 3d function in mind, so it doesnt give the 3d effect (I used the multiple layers for coloring and sketches. So if you turned 3d on youd be able to see hints of the sketches)
Wonder what happened to the old comment ehh probably just a fault on TH-cam's side.
Bro upload💀

Lol, sucked at building realistic minecraft trees a year ago, but after watching tutorials/guides on it n' practicing (you know...

This song has been able to scratch a musical itch for me. Not too slow, not too fast, not too loud, and not to soft. Just perfect.
Exactly, it's just at that perfect in-between.
Hello there! A friendly reminder that this lovely, brain-scratching song exists!
I think Cosmo Sheldrake is very good at that, although he definitely has some songs that are slower (like linger longer) or faster (like No. 3)
@@trilobite3120 huh a song called linger longer is a slower song... that is a weirdly unexpected event, and tbh I am not sure why.
The vocals also have such power

I get that there's some Homestuck looking things in here but can we stop talking about it and start talking about how incredible these OC's are. Like we only get small pieces of their stories and designs but it truly reminds me of one of those amazing dreams with a whole world and cast, but you're missing too many details so it has a meloncholy mystery behind it.

talking into the void cuz i really wanna talk about this
this animation inspired me so so much in early middle school. i was really afraid of the future, not sure what my life would become. i wasn’t sure who i would be, what i was put here to do. and lmao covid made that soso much worse
then i found this animation. i then realized what i wanted to do. i wanted to tell stories. be they real or fiction, i wanted to create my own small worlds, ones so minuscule yet expansive.
it’s been five years since then, and now i’m a sophomore in high school. so much has changed, so much has occurred. and even now my dreams of creating something predominate in my mind. it sounds corny but in a way this animation let me realize who i wanted to be.
thank you, from the bottom of my heart
Im glad my animation could inspire you like that!! : D! I hope that no matter what story you decide to tell it gets popular!! You got this!
@@SurohHorus thank you soso much
positivity in't spread often enough. wonderful to hear about it and i wish you luck on your creations. may the world remember your name
This is honesty one of THE best flipnotes I've ever seen, I've never been so impressed by animation????? Everything just absolutely blew me away, amazing job!!
Thank you so much!!!

Aaron Lawson who hurt you
Wow, this person did not leave details out. I love all the hard work and effort put into this whole thing, it's so beautiful, yet they still do those tiny details.
gotta be honest, i wasnt prepared to hear such a masterpiece of a song, and to read such a masterpiece of a comic, although it takes a bit to get into it, it is well worth it. every death makes the reader feel like a part of them has shattered(even if it was on for less then 10 frames) and it always keeps its stakes high, its the best webcomic ive read in really quite a while and the song was the break ive been unknowingly waiting for for a while.
Agreed comrade!

Kato Kivera same
Same here
Same, but if you think about it, isn’t that the beauty of animations? As the 1:00 mark says the moral is “Nobody Knew and Nobody Knows” it gives people the ability to explore their own minds and interpret things differently and share and inspire new stories
Every time I hear it it always makes me want to draw a dramatic, perilous, life-on-the-line, hero scene
It makes me feel kinda lost
Oh my goodness that was beautiful! I didn’t think I could be more impressed by this flipnote, but I was definitely wrong. Watching this really makes me want to see some lore about the characters in it!
Thank you so much! and dont worry, this wont be the last we see of these characters
SurohHorus AAAA I cant wait
@@SurohHorus Thank you for sharing this with us Suroh this was incredible keep up the good work plus btw I'm in love with this song now thank you so much
Copy and pasted from tumblr “I can explain the backstory of the world and put the events from the video here in the correct order.
The story’s name is “Respawn”
Far into the future, the Earth is on its last leg, barely any resources, the ozone layer so messed up that people can only live in designated areas, and people are running out of food. All the while, there have been reports of a rogue planet coming towards the Earth. Thankfully, the planet, Namulia, does not collide, but instead begins to orbit the Earth. When some inhabitants come down it is revealed that they are the reincarnation of humans through “Respawning”. They retain no memory of their human life on their first respawn, but can respawn just one more time (retaining any injuries they had before) and get their human memories. However, whatever they die of each time they respawn they become immune to.”
@@SurohHorus I'm gonna sun then
Your typography skills are absolutely unparalleled, the way the lyrics fit into each frame and work with the surroundings and against them??? I die
the lyrics being perfectly timed with the words on screen is really satisfying o_o

When the beat dropped at 0:30 and all of the bright colors started to flash, I literally GASPED. It’s so gorgeous and so fluidly animated! And I love how I can see the story happening but it’s just enough of a mystery that I am intrigued and wanting more! Going to read the comment immediately now

How in the hell could you make this so fast and so GOOD
I'm disgusted.
you are underrated, this animation is absolutely stunning and you deserve more recognition

You had me in the first half, not gonna lie XD
I saw this and I was about to hit someone but it’s good now
Why does this feel like childhood? This is the second time I've heard this, the first time was last year, and I swear it just captures the mystery and magic of being a child. Perfect.
Damn that animation must have took forever to do. Everything was practically silhouettes and the audience could still tell what was being shown, that's hard to do.
Inks Hermit and they did it on a 3DS!
But still look in description for 0:22
This carries that vibe of a story that lives on forever and forever because it's so unforgettable it's not allowed to die. This feels like TAZ and Homestuck and all other stories you've either come to love or heard enough about to know they mean something to people, but not enough to know why. Idk what it is exactly but whatever it is.. It's fucking incredible and you nailed it.
What's TAZ?

Eyy
cardSleuth, I agree full heartedly
I found this on accident because I forgot to stop the auto playlist that TH-cam made, and I'm damn glad I did, because it's pure gold, I love the song, and the animation fits oddly well, and includes the lyrics, too
Saaame
Yep, and now I'm obssesed
I love how abstract this is. I can tell there's a story, but I can't quite figure out WHAT it is, because it's not simply handed to viewers within the video. There's just the right balance that you can tell something is happening, but aren't certain what it is. I absolutely LOVE that. The color choice is also really well done. The colors are all really bold and at the same time, they are used in such a way that they complement each other rather than being too sharp of a contrast and hurting viewers' eyes.
The entire video is just really good. I love it so much. Extremely well done job!
Sincerely,
C
@Vance Schluter Omg yes I love that game. I 100% get what you're saying.
i think flipnote studio 3d only has 6 colors
The complete lack of outline colors really adds to this! Without outlines, the colors and shapes have an easy time blending into each other, and when switching from scene to scene its easy to tell what we are looking at. There is also something to be said in how despite the song having nothing to do with the animation, the feeling that you get from both is similar, this sort of feeling of being on another world where the rules are all completely different.

i couldnt say it beter than you my frend a tru piece of art
I JUST STARTED READING THE COMIC AND THOUGHT "HUH THIS STORY FEELS REALLY FAMILIAR, I SWEAR IVE HEARD OF SOMETHING LIKE THIS BEFORE"
AND THEN I REMEMBERED THIS ANIMATION AND I WAS LIKE "WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF TWO THINGS BEING SO SIMILAR, MAYBE THEYRE CONNECTED"
AND WHAT DO YOU *FUCKING* KNOW, I WAS RIGHT!

FAQ before you comment:
1) No its not homestuck/eddsworld/Deltarune/whatever. Its its own thing.
2) read the description.
3) it was made in flipnote 3d for the 3ds, thats why the title says "3d".

Legend has it that the moss grows on
The north side of the trees
Well, legend has it when the rains come down
All the worms come up to breathe
Well, legend has it when the sunbeams come
All the plants, they eat them with their leaves
Well, legend has it that the world spins round
On an axis of 23 degrees
[Chorus]
But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon?
Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon
Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune
And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom
Well, we can all learn things, both many and a-few
From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe
Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup
Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers’ droop
[Bridge]
Come listen, all ye fair maids, to how the moral goes
Nobody knew and nobody knows
How the Pobble was robbed of his twice five toes
Or how the Dong came to own a luminous nose
Or how the Jumblies went to sea in a sieve that they rowed
And came to shore by the Chankly Bore where the Bong-trees grow
Where the Jabberwocky’s small green tentacles do flow
And the Quangle Wangle plays in the rain and the snow
[Chorus]
But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon?
Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon
Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune

From that old hunched-up woman who lived inside a shoe

You managed to tell an elaborate story with AMAZING shots using nothing but colors and a song. That is incredible!! You just got yourself an instant sub my dude!
(Edit: I FORGOT I WAS ALREADY SUBBED 😂😂😂)
Could you spell out the story? I'm catching some, but not all of it
I might be horribly wrong, but it seems like several different stories that tie in together by an outside force. Something or someone is influencing certain events that therefore lead to other events in the other stories. I don't understand it all, but its very interesting to watch it all unravel.
@@theallmightyboop4732 Or maybe something is leading these different events into one. Causing one huge conflict.
@@celestinemorningstar4851 yeah I couldnt really catch most of it either. Just small parts.
read the description..
I love how this was made on flipnote because flipnote was a big part of my childhood.
At this point this song is just pure concentrated nostalgia, it feels so magical. I remember seeing it when it first circled the recommended, and seeing it grow and get the attention it deserves is so satisfying. Gotta say, when I think of TH-cam as a whole this is one of the first things that come to mind
i saw it the first time bout 3 days ago, and it made me feel nastolgic for the storys my grandma told me
Yeah this is full of nostalgia
I still remember when it came out I listened to the song not understanding anything but liking the music and I came back and it very nostalgic and it caught me off guard heck it auto played on this my eye literally opened from shock I was playing minecraft-
one of my teachers played this video in class
Dude, I loved the part where all the arms were running 2:59
Oh god I didn’t see that
Jeebie Jeebly really it’s at 3:00
Also the arms are a whole creature*
Wait- That's illegal.
when you or
I was taking a test and a question was that axle does the earth rotate at and this song popped up in my head and it's been stuck in my head for 2 days now
that's plesant
Good way to remember
Was it correct
Well there you go
I made the like go to 666 :>
This is beyond impressive how clear the picture comes out, despite how few colors they used to animate this.
King with no crown
Jester with a frown
A man who couldn’t drown.
That sounds like a description of a team, *or a book*
Rasputin. Is that you?
Izzy Frizzy RA RA Rasputin!
Did you listen to the girl
Who said she had a mouth
But didn't hear her
'Cus you took
The other route.
I am both confused and in awe. This is all sorts of amazing
So, I used to listen to this song *ALL THE TIME*
And I randomly stopped listening to it and forgot about the song.
Then I saw this in my recommended..and I got slapped with nostalgia, and now I listen to this amazing song again!
I just wanted to thank you for making this, so thank you.
Also this is animated incredibly, all the colors go well together and the song just works so well.
The silhouettes make the animation seem mysterious and I love it.
Please never stop animating😫👏
Legit, same here
The satisfaction you get after being able to piece events together and understand this animation after reading into the webcomic and the info around it feels good. I'm absolutely following the webcomic's development!
After watching this at least 15 times over, my brain is only now starting to piece together the plot.
_the scenes were color coded the whole time, smh me_
OH, SHIT YOUR RIGHT!
WAIT WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT
NEED ANSWERS
can you please explain?
I mean, the different characters had distinct colours, but if you mean the background and what's happening there, then you've lost me.
This gives me homestuck _and_ Steven universe vibes! (Mainly because of the multicoloured alive arm things)
the adventure zone too!
Definitely gave me homestuck vibes, same

Before I knew about this video I actually thought he said "Moscow on the North side of the trees" and I was so confused I thought this song is about world war 2 during nazi invasion to Soviet
I NEED THE LORE. *slams fist on table* Genuinely incredible storytelling and visuals. Don't know how i JUST found this. New sub
The first thing I thought once the chorus hit was that this is the perfect song to explain the importance of stories. And of Bards who tell those stories. The common trope is they're bed hoppers who sing and mess around- but really there's so much power in a story and people overlook that.
Once upon a time, a Legend was whispered among shadows.
It was a legend of hope
It was a legend of dreams
It was a legend of light
It was a legend of dark
This is the legend of M O S S
Eat moss
Yes, consume the dank

Where life has a second chance
Where humanity may not last

45 watches later: fuck yea.
for real, this is AMAZING! I stumbled on this by complete accident and got my mind blown. Thanks for sharing your wonderful art and ideas!
Me: also friggin loved it and subconsciously looped it for more than an hour while making art on me computer
happy rather belated 4th birthday to the animation that changed the way i construct funny little animatics within my brain. i'm SO happy this popped off, ABSOLUTELY deserved! seriously this owns i can't believe it's only existed for four years, it feels like it's been around for literally forever in the best way possible.
2:27 Ok, so APPARENTLY, making it seem like the camera is spinning around a character in an animation is something only for pros so uhhhhhh...
oh my goodness you're right
wow that's amazing...
Yes well see it’s incredibly difficult to shift perspectives in a 2D animation because most 2D animation is just shifting static 2D sprites around or slightly redrawing them sometimes but if you shift perspectives
You have to redraw
*everything*
*_every frame_*
Toasted Water *oh no*
That was a really cool shot. Thanks for pointing it oit
Only true pros know how to procrastinate
This song has the vibe of that one dream that you can’t really remember but you know that it was super nostalgic... I love it
holy cow how is this comment a year old

No one is going to read it here?
Good.
This story, the Flipnotes, the music, they remind me of those months before the pandemic, just after I joined Uni, waiting at the bus stop of that weird City...
I don't miss that chaos, but I do miss the ways I used to give myself solace...
This is more true than ever
Legend has it this animator will continue to be more succesful
I know this is one more comment like many, many others, but
1) This is amazing animation, especially on flipnote.
2) That story, as much as we can see of it, it crazy, cool, and very interesting.
3) Can't wait to see the entire story.
4) Yes, Homestuck was brought to mind, but only concepts of it. The chaotic story that brings fan to question everything, the many perspectives, crazy out of the world things, a mix of old and new technology, lots of death, etc. but it was a good reminder.
Thanks for making this video.
Hey bro whats homestuck?
@@Gfrmda6blocc It's a webcomic by Andrew Hussie using MS paint. Crazy story that I won't write the novel and half to explain. Feel free to look it up.
Ok
Might have already said this, but now,
THIS is how you draw words.
It was so much more pleasant, and interesting to see the words to the song tilt, or bend to fit with the surroundings.
I like to do that at my projects (school projects) but my dad said it’s hard to read (and it kinda is sometimes) BUT DAMN IT LOOKS GOOD, it’s like subtitles that are are just subtle(haha funny joke), you still can picture the image without it because of how it blends in so good with the scenario and I don’t know more what I’m saying it’s 1am and my brain has already melted while I listen to this
I'm revisiting this after a few years because of a TH-cam mix, and it's still super stunning!!! I'm gonna read the comic now :]
my boyfriend is so talented
haha gay
@BlixerisacaT 2.0 i never said there was anything wrong with being gay sjw?
@The Empty Water Tower bruh i am just saying funny joke

Man, imagine seeing a cow flying towards you at 100 miles an hour while you just landed on mars. That would be quite... *interesting*
We just gotta find your mom
One small step for man, one gia- Houston, what the fuc-
More like 10ish km/s if it's jumping from earth to mars without double jump. Unless the cows farts also become way more powerful.
Ok, I'll stop now.
‘OmG thAt PrOvEs tHe gOveRnMeNT iS HiDinG thE FlaT eArTH FrOm Us!!!!!!’

The fact that this was done on Flipnote is a shining example that you don’t need fancy software to create something great.
Fantastic job man, it looks absolutely beautiful. It’s the kind of stuff that I can only hope of making some day in the future.
Flipnote 3ds just clarify
Flamingo is our lord Right? It’s insane how much was done.
1:04 has to be one of the best pixel hands ive seen that isnt just drawn and than converted into pixels.
*"so what is he saying?"*
*y e s*
Do people actually not understand him? It sounds so clear
@@thischanneldiedlol2234 if you know what he's saying yea, it's clear but listening to this song, the first two or three times, or if you don't care enough, it is a little more difficult to even know what he's saying
(Edit - oh wait I just realized this is the moss and not buttercup. In that case he just kinda sings almost meaningless gibberish (came to shore by the jangly bore where the bong trees grow) as the first few times I listened to this song I would have no idea what hes saying, the comment was just about how what he was saying was very weird? Is that the word?)

Thank you @Goatie The Demon, very cool!
It's been a bit, and I find myself thinking about this a lot. You made something that sorta
Sticks in your head, y'know?
Whether it's because of the cool music or the excellent animation or both I can't tell.
All I know is that my brain keeps it in the back of my mind, and I'm drawn to it like a compass for some reason.
Ya did good, kid.
I agree. Something about the cryptic rhymes along with the symbolic visuals just sorta speaks to me in a way that doesn't normally happen with other animations. Perhaps it is the music, the animation, the story underneath that all culminate into an all encompassing story that reminds us of a time in our childhood where it felt like anything was possible, and where fantasy culminated into whatever it wished. I've watched this a dozen times, and I still haven't quite figured out all the nooks and crannies of the messages that this video contains. Perhaps time will tell.
I love the aesthetics of this...the art style and custom text looks amazing. Limited resolution & intentionally limited color palettes remind me of cinematics in NES games...this really gets the (creative) juices flowin'.
This is AMAZING and nobody can tell me otherwise. You have this great style mixed with the smooth animation (which, by the way, is scarily good for flipnote) and the colors are bright but don’t clash, you can tell there’s a story but you have to think about it, instead of having it given to you, and the song choice is great. Overall I just love this animation.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
I was just looking. And clicked on "play video again" twice.
Over and over.
after watching 800 times.
so you watched this 2.22222222222 days without break?
@D H and you somehow surviving the age in years most likely yet possibly 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 years
@D H oof mental and physical state
I love this animation so much, I personally enjoy drawings that don’t show too much detail, but enough to recognize what it is. The flow and visuals are so eye catching and smooth, I don’t fully understand the story, but the short and precise sequences makes me feel like it’s an old memory. It shows the important parts, but not all the small stuff and makes me feel a little empty on the inside.
I dont think I've ever been more thankful to get such a random video recommendation on a 2am youtube rabbithole.
I keep coming back to this. The song and the animation combined are such a wonderful thing, and I truly can't express the rare sense of calm this brings me.
Thank you to both artists for their incredible work.

Babe! It’s 1:30 pm, time to rewatch The Moss | Flipnote 3D Animation!
it’s 1:52 am, time to watch it again
this is a good comment, thank you.
It's 12:00 pm, yesterday, time to watch The Moss | Flipnote 3D Animation since we went back in time so that this comment changes from its original state to saying for that it's time to watch it again
Yes. I agree.
For the hundredth time lol
Why does this bring so much nostalgia despite never seeing anything like this before?

This has it all, happiness, adventure, betrayal, sadness, the complexities of life. And all to the tune of a great song. Truly a masterpiece ahead of it's time.
Man, I commend you for so many reasons. The animation is literally perfect for a 3ds, I’ve tried Flipnote 3D, and it is ridiculously difficult. Not only that, you introduced me to the greatest music artist that I’ve ever heard, and dear god I want to learn how to do this. Thank you. Just: thank you.
insane. easily my favorite animatic of all time
You cant look or blink off the screen cause you'll miss something amazing
You can't blink, period
Blinking is now outlawed
