“do you think we’re soulmates in another universe?”
sybth for soobin yeonjun beomgyu taehyun huening kai??!?!?!?!?!
i know this is an overused compliment but this genuinely has such amazing potential to be a full-blown series. this might be my favorite calarts film this year.
Each episode a new incarnation! Clean slate, new story, same two lovers meeting over and over and over
Woah
@@ari638That would be so cool! 🤩
A really interesting plot!
I'm speedless. It has a unique love story concept, amazing character design, and beautiful artwork. Cannot wait for your upcoming works in the future.
If you're so speedless, you really should have just gotten those agility +2 boots.
Lovely
Ain't got no gas init.
The way she blocks the view of the timer at 2:41 is so beautiful man. As if telling her not to focus on the new worlds but the everlasting constant- being with eachother
the same with the ending too! how she blocks the timer, repeating the “no matter what” point and showing the importance of them meeting over the looming timer!
@@PerishersChamberyessss!! It’s such a sweet detail
Soulmates in every universe. Yep yep this is a tear jerker
I’ve been seeing a lot of animations from CalArts lately and someone correct me if I’m wrong but I think it’s because it’s midterms or finals season either way they’re all really good
It's my favorite time of year when they magically start showing up in my recommends
@@IunaIia sameee!!
@@simplydree and all of them are so cuteeeeeee 😭 I love man's best friend one!!!
Might be their thesis projects
@@H3ref0ru_ righttt super cuteee
Thank you so much for having me on this! Having the opportunity to bring life into one of your characters is such a privilege! Everything looks so lovely, you did wonderful work!!
DUDE.. IF YOU EVER DECIDE TO MAKE THIS AN ACTUAL SHOW.. I WOULD WATCH THE FULL THING!! :D
Same!
Im crying, omfg, this not only showed me one of my biggest fears but also so much romantic love, dang it. I wont recover from that😭😭 very good work
this is genuinely so beautiful and perfect, not just the way they interact but how they sound and how you hear them express themselves. Its such a natural and real exchange accompanied by the music and ticking sound effects as well as those of life, it is so enchanting and brings everything together and makes it feel so elavated. "I miss you already" just really played on my feels.
Voice of June here. I AM SCREAMINGGGGGGG! 😭
the music composition reminded me a ton of super paper mario and it elevated the watch all the more for me 🥰 wonderful work from everybody involved
i definitely hear the same think it's nearly identical. I think it uses the same notes and scale. Memory/Bounding Through Time and this also seem to use a combination of piano, synth, and clock ticking.
@@NeatCrownBounding Through Time was indeed the main reference for the ending cue!
I’ve always loved that piece of music, and felt this was a perfect film to utilize it as reference! (Though, maybe a bit too heavy handedly 😅)
It’s the mostly the same pentatonic riff structure, but centered around the 7th as opposed to the 9th and some weirder timings on auxiliary synth parts.
@@Toastrz97 oh that's awesome :) it really set the tone perfectly and gave the whole ending segment this nostalgic touch that fit the themes of the film very well
@@Toastrz97 As much as it is heavy-handed, those heavy hands are equally as delicate. Although it is extremely similar, I love it regardless because its inspiration is from a game that is very near and dear to me. It brought back those feelings of bittersweet melancholy that I had felt before. Whenever I hear it, it makes me tear up, and it fits perfectly.
I love how urgent yet calm it feels. I really felt each second go by as the countdown reached zero. The emotions and the character dynamics felt so real, and it was guided by an amazing soundtrack. I love how it also feels like rpg with different scenerios with the level up effects at 0:40 and the different scenerios gone through at the end. The end sequence was especially amazing, it really got me to think about all the different timelines they went through together. Amazing work!!
I could imagine a full series of these timelines where they get closer and closer to figuring out how to stop their jump, or at very least retain their memories
Dear rita chen, You are so precious. The choice of pastelish-like colours… The art style that deeply reminds me of Adventure Time, reminding me really of my childhood and brings nostalgia… Those little shimmering stars are sooo familiar to me as well, is that… perhaps from… some Super Mario game or something..? The things you used to collect as a player? Nevertheless, keep it up and never give up, you‘re SO talented and incredible!!
The Music is giving BOUNDING THROUGH TIME / MEMORY from Super Paper Mario and i LOVE IT!!!
OKG YOURE RIGHT
OOH ok ok ok ok ok ok yeah. I'm crying
literally every shot was beautiful, i loved how well you used colors and the staging to invoke their feelings. The expressions and music were wonderful too, everything was wonderful!! i love this, thank you for sharing and creating such a wonderful film about love.
I will say once and I will say it again this is making me feel things!!! 😭😭 I’ve always loved your animations!! The storytelling really does tug on the heart strings in the best way!!! Thank you for 3 years it’s been amazing
Literally crying in the club rn 🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭
They joined hands.
So the world ended.
And the next one began.
holy cow.. this is just so impressive. wish i had more words to say than just these few, but oh well. this concept is just so interesting and beautiful, that they’ll always find each other
the swell of the music with the montage of all their lives makes me so emotional T___T) god,,,, my heart
The music and ticking sound in this love story reminds me of Blumiere and Tippi’s theme in Super Paper Mario. Cute cute video
4 minutes. that’s all it took for me to sob. what a beautiful film😭 the storytelling here was simply amazing, and to literally build the world, tell the story, and hit me in the feels real bad in that amount of time… and the ANIMATION?? this should be winning awards. simply amazing. usually don’t take the time to leave a like on videos, but i had to here. this is beautiful.
The world they appeared at somewhat had genshin vibes. But other than that, the backgrounds are just amazingly lovely done. So warm. All your works are joy to look at❤
Crying. Swelling music and I’m crying. The sunset… so beautiful. Watercolor skies
i love that the visuals make it so easy to understand that this is a “soulmates in every universe” trope. NOT a bad thing at all, in fact quite the opposite! animation/ film / storytelling in general is best when it’s show versus tell. and this showed a lot through the art. i love it
"Why would I be scared too spend another life with you"
AWWWWW the world building is so good! and I love the art style and the music... love this so much
This was incredible, genuinely made me so emotional. The art is fantastic and the one clip where it rapidly changes between setting as they run into each other so beautiful this whole thing is gorgeous.
oh my god the concept is so. aaaaah. the symbolism. the flying embrace. it's heartwrenching and devastating and so adorable and gay help!!!
i keep coming back to this short film AAAAAA i love it so much it's so cute and the music and art and voice acting are all so good!!!! (the background art and colors especially are so nice i want to cry)
I’ve been waiting for this! I absolutely love your films, your storytelling and art is incredible. This was so beautiful. I could watch a whole show about these characters :)
BEAUTIFUL TEARJERKER i love it oh my god gave me chills in such a short amount of time
This is such a cool concept! I LOVE your animation and colours, you did an amazing job!
This is STUNNING!! beautiful work!
The animation may not be the greatest if I'm being completely honest, but the story is very compelling even though is just a short story. I'd love to see an expanded version of this, it has so much potential.
Its suck a beautiful film. The scenes at the front (fighting) and the later scene were they shift through different universes are so amazing. I love it so much 😭😭
if you made this into a series and it was a different universe every episode (or season like infinity train) i would SO watch this
I’m sobbing this is so gorgeous and tender and sweet WAHHH
This is SO CUTE!! Wonderful work!!
new favorite short film ever of all time i love this so much
this needs to be a show
Another amazing Calarts film as always
I just meet this oc and i feel like i know them a decade just from this animation keep it up man this is great.
Extra Amazingly Nice 💞
This is such a unique concept :00 Every frame looks nice and the voice acting feels so natural. Nice film and props to everyone who worked on it!!
Wow, this is incredible and also I’m crying lol. Your sense of color and your backgrounds are phenomenal. Love this 💛
I think the art is really beautiful. ❤ Feels like home to me.
Everything about this is so gorgeous! O.O From the animation, voices, music, and colors.. this is amazing! Everyone did so well!!!
"I'll love you in every universe"
Loved this, thank you for making it. :)
STOPPP OH MY GOD this was so fucking cute
the voice acting ?? the music ??? the colors ?? THE ART ????? i wish this was 4 hours oh my god !! whether you choose to expand on this or move on to tell new stories, i cannot wait to see what you make next!
IDK if its intentional but I love how the part starting at 2:15 sounds like the memory track from super paper mario
th-cam.com/video/p5RDbnei7lw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mrTTshHK5BdUKoCj
it feels really fitting honestly, like the themes of that and this are kinda similar.
Oh also this was absolutely incredible!
Very much intentional!!
When this film was pitched to me my mind immediately went to that suite of tracks from SPM for the same reason!
When the main guidance for the ending cue I got was “I want a ticking clock and piano, idk what else” I figured this would be a perfect opportunity to pay homage (maybe a little too hard 😅) to one of my favorite games :)
@@Toastrz97you absolutely nailed it!!
Incredible!
Just like every single well done animation project I see on TH-cam It would always kill me joy to see a full series of this
I like recked my throat 5 times watching this
this is absolutely beautiful. the art style??? the lighting??? the backgrounds??? the shot of them kissing in front of the sunrise transitioning to all their other lifetimes had me IN TEARS. "play again?" yes, I WILL play this video again this is so incredible
The way I stomped my feet and yelled at the end of this I SWEAR-
Great work animator & co. Possibly my favorite student work I've seen
