A short quick one!
I came up with the idea while making the last one and wanted to see what I could do within a day. Churning this out out was really fun, I want to do more short ones! Shoot me quick ideas in the comments if you have them!

I love how Justin goes from barely remembering to talk in character to like basically becoming Taako later lmao. It's amazing how much these boys grew throughout this podcast
Imagine if that was the voice that merle went with for the rest of the podcast. Sometimes we don't appreciate the blessings we've been given
in an alternate timeline he wasn't able to stop Clint and there's an entire campaign of Justin begging his dad to stop doing character voices.
"The mouth word that you just made won't do" amazing
imagine being trapped in an umbrella for a decade and the first time you hear your brother's voice again hes arguing with a dwarf about his character voice
Aislinn Leinster | MY GOD YOU PEOPLE NEED TO UNDERSTAND SPOILER WARNINGS
Aislinn Leinster I actually read this before I knew about her being in the umbrella, but I had NO idea what you were talking about until I watched it XD
Okay thanks for the fucking spoiler, not like I literally just started listening or anything. Nah it's okay.
Whelp i guess I don't have to listen to the podcast anymore thanks
Please. Just say spoilers ahead and skip a few lines. *That's all you had to do.* But *nope,* gotta ruin the story for *several people-*
When Taako grabs Merle like 3 years old boy and pulls him back - so cute. Those little moments add so much to the scene. to the ideas thing - I haven't seen any animation from that moment in ep 22, when Boys meet Marvi for the first time and Taako is disguised as Little Jerry. It can be fun.
Gm- ok no one but taako can do a xharacter voice *years later* Gm-God dammit dad do your character voice
That's because later on they establish his Christopher Lloyd impression to be the voice of Merle (and Justin was sick of trying to figure out if they were speaking OOC). They really get after him about using it during the live shows.
the scene where taako eats his name sake and reunites with his boyfriend
Inkie the Crow I'm animating that one now 😁
God speed laughing Jay. God speed!
Laughing Jay I'm literally subscribing to you just so i can see tgat when it comes out
I can't get over this! That beginning with Magnus saying "he's your dad??" Gets me every time! 😂 If want something quick to animate, you should do the scene where Magnus slaps the Director and she slaps him back and say "Booyah". I believe it's right before the Crystal Kingdom in the Lunar Interlude.
The first summer festival I believe. The lunar interlude before crystal kingdom was camdlenights
i still absolutely love that this implies that taako might be doing a voice in that world
imagine if merle kept that voice all through that time he flirted with a plant
Taako's expression at the end is my favorite part.
I love how they went from "whoever you are, uhh, dwarf" to century old friends
This is literally the video that convinced me to watch taz
Mallk238 hey me too! I just finished the episode this is from
IM SCREAMING THIS IS SO GOOD! I love how you included the part with Justin calling Merle "dad"
That was really great fuck If you want suggestion there's the moment where taako starts twerking at the very end of the crystal kingdom, either that or the extraction of the philosopher's stone
those are terrible thanks
Taako actually called Merle dad, it was a reflex from the stolen century
I've watched this on so many loops. All the little details of the gestures of stance are hypnotic.
The very last face Taako makes is pure gold
Wow I love how Taako just yanks Merle backwards lol, this whole video is so cute!!
I was dying laughing the entire time I was watching this. The McElroys are too funny for this world and this animatic is fantastic.
merles eyes at his deeper voice make me laugh every time 😂 also every time taako picks him up too
"Dorf"
I always love your animatics. They're so expressive and detailed and your character designs are on point! I was so hoping for the part "I'm dying. rest in peace me" but this was fantastic.
gosh this animatic is so good!! taako is so expressive and i love the way they move and how you play with perspective. really really excellent!!
your art style is PERFECT
Taako's voice is just pure honey.
I love this omgggg. The character designs you use are flawless!
“No, that won’t do…” And it’s only now, years later, that I SUDDENLY realize watching this how this moment gets echoed later on in the show and think, once again, “Griffin, you brilliant bastard.”
SO DANG GOOD WHAT. These POSES are so so expressive! Very inspiring bless u
Their body language is so great throughout
God, this is so good. I’m impressed by something new every time I watch it.
"No that won't do" taako about merles 'character voice' "No, that wouldn't do" lup rejecting merles attempt to hold the umbrastaff
The little "blahblahblah" kills me
YOUR STYLE AAAAAAAAA
Honestly that second voice was pretty good. The voice they eventually settled on for Merle was perfect, but I wouldn’t have minded that deep voice lmao
So. My incredibly flamboyant tiefling got a voice tonight. Or he almost did. Until I realized I was slowly slipping out of 'smarmy gay' and slipping into full on goofy ass Taako. It's actually a lot of fun to do that voice, and no one called me on it so I might just keep doing it.
*cough cough* taakos thong song dance *cough cough* For real tho great work as always! It brightens up my day whenever you post; your animations and designs are awesome and full of expression!
This is literally the animatic that made me start TAZ and it’s still one of my favorites to this day
Oh my god Taako reeling Merle back in is freaking hilarious XD
I thought this part was absolutely hilarious, I laughed so hard when I first heard it, thank you so much for animating it, this is amazing
This is amazing
I think about this video a lot
Omfg you've given this golden moment so much more life, thank you so much for doing this ;u;
This is so adorable! My gosh I love it
This was the most incredible animation from the whole series. Especially Taako dragging Merle back was so cute 😂😂😂
I love your animatics! Their great love em
I love how you draw these boys. Their expressions are spot on!
This is amazing! greatjob!
I’ve watched this like 6 times I can’t stop
0:25 merle being just out of shot is fucken perfect omg
The idea of picking up Merle like a child when he’s an old man always gets me
this expressions make me cry, amazing
*i cannot stop watching this*
this is a great animatic
beautiful animatic! I love it and it's one of the best way someone made the scene (directed the scene?) it's well made and I like how you show it xD
THANK YOU
I love it.
He sounds like PsychicPebbles
jfhdhhd this is so good theyre so expressive !!
i'd definitely love to see you do some scenes from the live wrestle ep
So good! 😂
I really liked that voice, that and his animation were adorable
"Uh, excuse me, which ever one you are, the- uh- uh, Dwarf, uh, there's a cane here to look at." -"Oh, I'll check it out!"- "No, that won't do. (Uncontrolable *"the sounds"* laughter). No, th- the mouth words that you just made there, can't be a sound I'm exposed to." -"How come you can have a voice and I can't?"- "I have to sit next to you." -"THEN WHY ARE YOU SITTING NEXT TO ME?!"- "I literally sit next to you, I can't-" -"Blah Blah Blah Blah."- "I can't handle that, literally." " *Alright how's this, I'll go check out the cane.* " "It's getting worse!"
Hell yeah
it's actually crazy how it doesn't seem like taako unless he does the voice
omg yes
There's a reason Justin/Taako gets all the attention in this show.
I'm so surprised how hard I laughed watching this
Merle too short to be in the shot is so important
Just occurred to me: Taako's "no, that won't do" in response to merle's voice is like exactly the same as Lup's flashback. ("no, that wouldn't do. Sorry Merle.") ...So I'm not saying that Lup threw him across the room for daring to put on that ridiculous voice. But I'm also not NOT saying that.
HOW COME YOU CAN HAVE A VOICE AND I CANT
Bitch I love your art
HIS YOUR DAD???
Clint's first voice sounds so much like Zach Hadel.
"blah blah blah blah" 😃
Hello there
Can someone tell me where to start watching TAZ? Not all the episodes are on KZhead and I could not find any websites online. Oh btw, the latter is probably because I'm on my phone. So any recommendations based on that?
any site that shares podcasts. itunes and maximumfun.org are your best bets
