What started as a warm up for my next boarding segment turned into -- well. This. Considering what scene I was boarding, it's only natural I went super extra. Anyways enjoy this iconic and oscar winning performance!

I won't lie, every time I listen to the podcast I always imagine your designs and your soundtrack. It's a little irritating, actually! Like, I just got to this scene, and I'm like "where's the music"? You've spoiled me :)
I've come back here after a long hiatus of not reading comments - and this one right here is my favourite. Thank you - that is the highest of compliments❤
@@ImmortanJilli cannot believe this from a day ago! This video is CLASSIC!
i’m convinced that griffin decided to use the Magic Brian voice only a split second before he opened his mouth and he originally intended to have them both sound the same, but realized it would be WAY funnier if the disguise was really shitty 😂
oh you're totally correct
"but which was the *real* gundam?" - travis' underappreciated bit
It’s pretty much the “Why male models?” Of the series
“Which one’s the *real* Gundam Rocksieger?”
Shannon: no one seems to get or appreciates that reference, but that’s one of my favorite movies lol good job!
*"WHICH IS THE REAL GUNDHAM TANAKA-oh wait wrong fandom"*
RIP Magic Brian :( He died as he lived: with a ridiculous German accent.
And with all kinds of sinister magics, we can't forget them
ohohhohohho and he AFTER lived with the same accent
Killed by his most interesting feature.
@@logicaloverdrive8197 He died as he lived... for awhile
this animatic made me kinda sad actually
Just imagine your final words are met with nothing but hysterical laughter. This comment made by the Magic Brian gang
Oh noooooooo! The mystery is solved! You’ve solved my final riddle, you are ze new riddle master... Congratulations… You have proven yourselves... quite the adventurers... oh, I’ve landed on Bryan- Bryan, ahhh… Bryan, I’m so proud of zem… I’m going to die now... My life is flagging from my body... I’ll see my family... goodbye cruel worrrrld-
JEEZ, how deep is that pit?
And the award for most devoted goes to this commenter
Disney Rhydon How loud is his voice!?!
@@marleytarver9759 It looked like that was music for Taako's ears
I cast magic missile at him *again*
The head pats at "he's a bad boy" killed me
"OooooOooh, I landed on Bryan," Get's me every time! I swear!
*Bryan
With a Y
Cathrine Animates Briany
When Travis said "is it possible" it sounded just like when he started the mango cult.
Spoilers for further in but Yall this is hilarious but like, Remembering that Brian was a regular Balance member until the thrall of the weapon makes this, a lil sad???? Like he might ACTUALLY be proud of them
And they kill his ghost which at the time seems really dark, and only gets darker when they see his grimacing lifeless face inside Legion.
I was honestly expecting Taako to summon him in the final battle with the bonds thing.
I forgot about that LMAO
And he was gonna get married... So.. ._.
Still kinda upset that there was no Magic Brian themed live show where the boys return to the Astral Plane to ensure that Magic Brian's Ghost Wedding goes well.
Taako reaching down to pull Merle into frame at 0:30 made me burst out laughing!
Well, you know what Justin said about making for better fanart. :D
YOO I THOUGHT IT WAS MAGNUS WHO PULLED HIM UP. taako is stronk
Then drops him 😂
Geo Da Sponge ff
Imagine if he actually cursed rockseeker with a voice modifier
that. actually may have gone better for them? cause they would have killed him when his disguise ran out and phandalin may not have been destroyed
I love how most drow elves are portrayed as sinister and evil bad guys...and then you have this guy. A wacky, riddle master drow named Brian that has a German accent and a pet giant spider named Bryan. Best drow NPC ever!!
I like how easily Clint is given to joy. He literally laughs at every single joke anyone attempts to make during this whole series
I died when "Arms of an Angel" started playing 😂 This was a beautiful and wonderful animation with one of my favorite TAZ moments and I can't wait to see more!
Jinx Me combo'd with the jojoke
That WRECKED ME.
I'm only on ep 8, but this so far is my favorite moment from Av
You really have a knack for knowing the exact way to visually characterize each character and find the perfect angle and direction of each moment. Your style is genuinely how I picture the events of the Adventure Zone going down. I feel so greedy asking for more but I absolutely love these! If there was an animated series I'd demand you head it. Amazing work yet again
got magnus' facial hair all wrong tho
@@thecursed01 the boys said it's all up to interpretation. No such thing as wrong
I read this as Brian falling into the pit
I liked at the end of the video Gundren just has his face in his hands like, why? As he reavaluates his lifes choices and the reality that he was saved by three idiots had just reached him.
@@DigeeTheGenie yep
I've started quoting 'I'm going to die now' in that voice when I'm gonna die in vidya games and shit
all that laughing was in-game and i refuse to believe otherwise
there’s something cathartic/depressing/amazing about knowing that I'm watching this in a world where the campaign is over
Christ on a trike it's been a year already
@@jauxro Make that two.
@@knightornstein5902 [I once again shake my fists and curse the passage of time]
I love the Here There Be Gerblins graphic novel, but I feel like one thing they omitted from this scene was the joyful laughter on the part of the boys, which I feel very much makes this scene as hilarious as it is. You capture that so freakin well.
BRIAN WITH THE OSCAR AT 3:00 AAAA
And Brian is on Magic Brian's shoulder!
Bryan with a y
Im so glad Magic Brian's beautiful death scene was immortalized in this amazing animation
I continue to love your art style. Brian lightly slapping Gundren for being a bad boy was my favourite part of this :D
meissnerd you’re talking about magic Bryan right? 😂😂
Rip in peace Brian
2017-2017 He landed on Bryan
in the arms of the angel~ " ZE BEAUTIFUL GERMAN IZ DYING!!!!!"
BLACKSODA GERMAN SOCERIES ARE ZE BEST IN ZE VURLD!
H
1:04 i was so not ready for this
We’re any of us?
But who is the real one?
None of us were. None of us were ready for Brian's stupid voice to still be there even with the glamour.
taako just. dropping merle. i love it.
0:27 Love that Taako has to lift up Merle just so he can be in the shot.
i think that your black spider is actually the best one ive seen in design and expressions and just the way you draw him really, really good
I'm just listening to TAZ for the first time, and this scene is what made me realize I was truly hooked with no hope of escape. I was laughing so hard I was almost crying, which was really not safe seeing as how I listen to podcasts while I drive.
I've heard this clips so many times, just from relistening to the episode and watching other animatics, but this still manages to make me laugh, especially with how you brought this to life with your animation (not to mention the truly inspired music choices!)
Your art and designs are what I think of when I listen to the adventure zone
"I've landed on Brian" is probably the single best thing ever to have existed. When God comes to purge the world he's going to give us a second chance because of this.
all of this is fucking gold, but magnus's eyes when he went, "but how do we tell them apart!" had me wheezing
Arms of an angel killed me.😂😂 this is great!
Easily one of the most classic TAZ moments by easily one of the best TAZ animators
omg i cried laughing at the 'arms of an angel' part, i love seeing your animatics! such great expressions !!!
confession; I don't even watch TAZ(at least not yet), so i have no idea on what's happening, but this alone boosts my motivation to watch TAZ by 90% because the mix of the expressions and poses with the audio is amazing and my sides actually hurt
Go listen to TAZ Now Now NOW
Taako pulling merle into frame and then just dropping him xD
Ironically, if they did end up killing the real Gundran just for the sake of the joke, a lot of people would still be alive.
"How deep is that pit?" Gets me every time
That scene never gets old. Definitely top.
I love this I also love how he says "I'm so proud of them" so emotionally and it just shows them cracking up idk why but that's my favourite scene keep it up
the moment i got the notification i came straight here and you picked easily one of my all time favourite scenes from taz!!!!!! i love your character designs so much, and magic brian's end was pretty much exactly how i imagined it, i'm so glad you're animating again !!!
Man all these character designs are so perfect but I gotta say, that Merle is frickin' SPOT ON. Like that shot at 1:47 is EXACTLY what I thought he'd look like when Clint said that. Incredible! Amazing! Bravo bravo bravo!!
This is so amazing. The character designs, the posing, the expressions, the shot compositions--all incredible. Also, the scene is funny as all hell. Fun fact: when I started listening to TAZ Balance, I listened to it while working out. This scene left me utterly incapacitated, dying laughing while laying on a bench trying to do crunches. My workout ground to a halt for a solid 10-15 minutes and I got a lot of weird looks. Had to stop listening to Balance while working out after that. Anyway, amazing work!
To think we came from scenes like this to Johann's message. Christ, Balance will forever be a triumph of collaborative storytelling.
Nothing will ever be funnier than Magic Brian's death scene. The first time I heard it I laughed so hard I cried uncontrollably. I just went looking for it again because I needed a little Spider Bryan bump.
I love the JoJo reference with the "to be continued"
MastermindEpsilon apparently you were the only other person to get it
This video was literally the reason I started watching TAZ and I am SO thankful! It's my absolute favorite podcast and gives me so much joy, and I would never have checked it out if not for you. So thank you! You are the best!
I love how everyone is just laughing hysterically the entire time
THE WAY HE FLUNG INTO THE PIT WITHOUT ANYTHING TOUCHING HIM DKSJJSHDHHSH
Rest In Peace magic Bryan, we truly didn’t know you long enough
I still miss him
The scene that got me hooked on Adventure Zone
We need more Brians and Bryans in this world.
RIP magic brian, you will forever be in our hearts, you were the most beloved joke-ish character ever, may you rest peacefully in the eternal sea of the astral plane.
I love all your animatics, and I loved this one, too. Your designs are all so good!!!!! Your Magnus is so pure, such a good boi, my favorite Magnus, and your Taako is immediately identifiable and perfect. Your Merle looks squishy, like a Merle should, and I love all of your designs!
This was already amazingly animated, and then Arms of the Angel kicked in and I absolutely LOST IT. Oh my god, you're AMAZING
Well...it's official. Thanks to you, I have no choice but to listen to this podcast.
Of course Brian dies ... He has the side ponytail!!
This is still one of the funniest moments of the podcast.
I watched this in my office and had to bite my arm really hard to not just burst out laughing. And then I watched it again because it's perfect and had to bite my arm again.
This is the animatic that made me start listening to the Adventure Zone, and I just finished it today! Great work!!
Once again hun you have outdone yourself. Truely the TAZ animatic queen
THIS IS SO GAL-DANG GOOD. hOLY jeeb This is fantastic. One of my favorite early campaign bits and you freakin'... ah jeezums. Nice work
I just started listening to TAZ and finished ep 4 five minutes ago. This could not have come out at a better time. Absolutely hilarious
Your art style is delightful!! I especially love Taako!
Definitely my favourite TAZ art! Oh man so good
I love your magic brian design! also you draw amazing expressions
This was, the animatic that got me into TAZ. Still just as hysterical years later. Thank you for this gift to humanity.
This is almost exactly how I envisioned the characters and this scenario going down! Amazing work!
I love that Griffin says “that was primo” but like that was all him so he’s just complimenting himself lol
this is my favorite animatic in the history of ever
I have genuinly heard or seen nothing about this but now im intrigued
1:35 I love how you can hear his smirk.
@immortan Jill thus is one of the first videos that got me into TAZ, I started watching these when they randomly popped up on my feed and I was super intrigued, a year later I’ve listened to all of TAZ and am super into it, and I just want to say thank you, for getting me into these good good boys, you changed my life for the better! :)
beat me to it
It's been over a year since the graphic novel came out, but these are still my favourite designs and this animatic is among the most amazing.
i keep coming back to this animatic because no matter how many times i have listened to this bit i laugh so hard i almost cry. probably one of my favorite things in the entire campaign.
The moment that song started up I felt so bad for laughing so damn hard
Gotta have that to be continued JOJO REF. GOOD SHIT! Besides that, great as always! I liked the personality you gave to the disguised-as-Gundren Magic Brian as he was talking.
The part where he says “oh I landed on Bryan” kills me every time TAZ is the freaking best
YESSSSSS YESSSSS THIS WAS AMAZING!!!!
I'm dying because I completely forgot this moment and how amazing it was and I love this.
I JUST REWATCHED THIS, AND WHEN I HEARD THE ADVENTURE ZONE THEME I ALMOST CRIED
Really great takes on the designs and expressions. I always return to this scene every now and then, it never fails to crack me up.
This bit is what me fall in love with TAZ
That scene is so amazing!
10/10 as usual with your animatics. XD i nearly died laughing at the expressions.
I NEVER WATCHED THE CREDITS IM SO PROUD OF HIS OSCARR
magic brian is literally the best character ever created
the pause and fall just made me think point and click adventures XD
I really like how you drew them when they were getting out of the pit!
This just has such mbmbam energy, like Griffin completely deadpan doing a bit while his family wheezes with laughter is my favourite song
Yo, I’m kinda sad that I didn’t play The Black Spider as a flamboyant German drow when I played Lost Mines.
This video is what originally got me to listen to the adventure zone because this was so gosh darn funny, thank you so much for introducing me to something so wonderful!!
holy shit man that was truly fucking incredible. this is absolutely my favorite scene in TAZ and this is by far my favorite animation of it.
I love your animation. It’s perfect for TAZ.
this is INCREDIBLE i absolutely love your character designs for them and i can't wait to see more!! you are so special and talented and i thank you very much for sharing your creations with the world
Timeless. The buildup will never get old
