Gonna tell my kids this was the bee movie
Haha... Please do!
Hahahahaha wait no the Japanese remake
“You like jas?”
Gosh, I love the story and the samurai-type of setting. Would absolutely watch a full length movie of this!
Thank you very much! There is a big follow up story planned. We’re hoping to be able to do it in the future as a movie or TV series. For updates check out our Patreon page!
@@ehd543 I'm really looking forward to that then!
Same
I would to if it was English and has words
@@Crimmsinn1312 There's a certain charm about 'silent movies' tho. It makes it easier to appreciate the art and character designs. ^^
When the Wasp showed his face, I yelled out “HOLY FUCK”
I loved this.
The fact that you made sure to give soldier four bands of yellow on her stinger - a Japanese honey bee for a feudal Japanese-influenced hive - is a perfect detail. The amount of effort throughout this entire project really shines through.
Thank you! Very glad you liked it
I actually have a LOT to say about this, if you dont mind a long comment.
I appreciate the variety of body types used.
Appreciated the clear effort in VARIOUS forms of mediums. And I have more specific time stamps I want to talk about;
3:00; forshadowed their relationship, and i REALLY noticed that once i finished watching all of this.
10:50; the use of the butterfly surprised me. I thought he was some character put in for comedic relief, but he genuinely had a goal; to contrast our sunflower warrior. In both attitude, and in bravery it seemed. Excellent touch.
10:53; shipping moment. They're girlfriends now.
14:57; The notion of the Wasp having facial detail in the mask is actually SUPER genius, and it REALLY gives off a vibe of 'this is more creature, vs being one of us'. Though the notion of the mask itself gives the opposite vibe. Sorta a real mulan and the huns vibe. As in, they're both humans, but one side is evil enough to BE human.
16:17;Forshadowing here was BEAUTIFUL? The way it was presented, and the art style used? Loved it.
All in? My only criteria is that we get more of this.
Really appreciate your observations. 🙏
wow u said everything detailed! nice! This part was funny when u said-they r girlfriends now😂😂
The reason why she was sent out there could have been a little bit more clear, other than that I really love the story in the unique Concept in the animation is really good too. The whole time I was watching this all I was thinking was the bee version of A Bug's Life.
wait what is the reason?
@@Eprics I believe the reason why she was sent out there with the worker bee was to teach her humility
@@morningstar9849 oooh
@Morningstar Thank you very much for the comment and so happy you like the project! You’ve astutely picked up on the story point I was struggling with the most. Yes, the teacher did send the soldier to guard the worker bee to teach her humility. I’ve tried several ways to communicate this without dialogue but all (other than this one) seem to take too long and hold the progression of the story. The idea of humility is quite abstract and difficult to convey without words in a short time. Probably the most effective way to improve the clarity of this story point is to have the characters talk. This is the plan for the follow up project - to have them all speak English. This will allow for more complex ideas to be communicated in a shorter amount of time. The next story is MUCH MORE complex with regard to the inner working of the samurai beehive and its politics.

@@ehd543 holy crap that's a long comment. Tell you the truth you actually conveyed it very well through facial cues, I mean I'm not a 3D animator so I couldn't have done it any better. The reason why I explained it was because it took me a minute to pick it up and I know that some people wouldn't pick it up at all so I decided to explain it in the comments. Regarding their patreon I'm a bit strapped for cash right now, but just know that if I had a little bit more spare cash I definitely would contribute to your patreon I really liked this video.
14:03 lol such nice detail
After the "ear" of the wasp was cut off the butterfly grab his own "ear"
Just like he think "oh that hurts"
Edit: sorry meant hornet
I don't really know the difference 😅
I think what makes this most interesting is while honeybees are portrayed as samurai, the wasps are portrayed as being monstrous, as though they were oni.
This should be a movie .The animation looks so good, kind of reminds me of the movie Antz
moral of the story: don't have to much pride and you should help others
This movie is kind of like the Disney movie Milan and Bug’s world BUT i love it!
This was a very nice animation, I do hope to see it continued
Really happy you liked it 🙏
Whatbif butterfly wears a kimono its real pretty.
And fire flies
Wasp
Ants
And 9 wing bees as kitsune insect version.
Should definitely be made into a movie! I'd love to watch something like this!
it takes strength, bravery, and respect of those weaker than you to be a successful leader
i know everyone wants to say how amazing this is, but honestly it has amazing merit to all the work you put into it and should feel proud of that fact
Thank you for the lovely comment!
Kudos! A warrior's heart is in each of us when we value those who are weak and unable to defend themselves. A warrior's soul is in each of us when we respect each other.
A lovely allegory. Ever since I was young I've been fascinated by the idea of living among insects, from "The City Under the Back Steps" by Evelyn Lampman to "Cold War in a Country Garden" by Lindsay Gutteridge. This is a great addition to that genre.
I wanna see more of this
I loved the butterfly he's so funny and adorable
This is going in my “Bees” folder...
Buzza Buzz Buzz
Yah like jazz?
Yes, as a matter of fact... I just set myself up for something, didn’t I..?
Only through honor not as a warrior but as a person will you gain true power and with that power you will carry with you is the blade of responsibility you must always be burden you with it without both you will not truly consider yourself an honourable warrior..
I like how the wasp could kill them all in no time, but it didn't.
Dude I hope it’s continued. The end was a little confusing bc it seems like after fighting that one wasp and learning humility the samurai becomes like the commander of the army??
Thank you! There was a time transition at the end after which the samurai bee looked older and was a commander. You got it exactly right :)
@@ehd543 I found this transition a bit difficult to understand, too. I got the concept of "time passed" but thought it was a shorter amount and wasn't sure whether it's the same bee. (that's meant as helpful feedback not intending to say you didn't do it right, I'm impressed by what you acchieved!)
@musicsgirlfriend13 @Eli Elk I agree that it was a bit confusing, the way I interpreted it, she sees the Sunflower Warrior/commander earlier in the film, that one golden warrior standing before the assembled warriors of the hive, and I assume she wanted to be like that warrior when she was the one who charged forward with her sword (it wasn't totally clear) Her commander sent her to guard a pollen collector instead, and that was probably a test to see if she really could ever be that warrior.
And, it turns out, she succeeded; this show took place in the past, and in the present, our bee is the new Sunflower Warrior, and the commander of the bees.
I would love to see this as a fleshed-out movie. It is a wonderful concept and I would back it
Bro you need to pitch this idea to Netflix, I would definitely watch it
I like how all the bees are female, as they should be. That always bugged me (ha) about A Bee Movie, and Bug's Life.
Love this animation, when born as a hero, one always become a hero, and along with it, the responsibilities....
It's like "MONDI KATTHI" concept told by hero character from movie "ARAVINDA SAMETHA"
Absolutely enjoyed this! Great animation and the storyline is fantastic. Loved every moment of it. Can't wait to see more! ♥
Thank you very much! We hope to be able to do more in the future!
I want a part 2 so bad
This reminds me of a cancelled Disney movie called "Army Ants".
Those are bees.
@@baltazarsant4057 True. I just said it reminds me of a cancelled Disney movie.
Make this a movie now!
It does not matter that you think your defenses are impenetrable, it does not matter how skilled you are with a sword, no matter how much you train, no matter how hard you prepare, nothing can prepare you for War.......
This is a great project.
would pay to see this if it was a movie or a tv series
This is a great uneaque short film about bugs it's also amazingly epic as someone who likes bee's and japanese culture I give you a 9/10
This is perfect just the way it is.
Wow just wow, without word this vid is astounding, i hope is their a continuation or sequel of this
No matter how high up you get, never forget you are made of earth. Be hamble. And the way you do that is by serving other people.
The fact the teacher is so concerned for her pupil is beautiful.
That was great especially with the Japanese theme it did not need any voices
i can only say please make some more episodes this was just awesome and very exceptional design i loved the kind of intro in rough drawings and then the animation in full color just great 1000thumbs up
Just wonderful !
Hardly blinked, Love it! More...soon...please!
the story and art style blend quote well together.
How? How ist your Video Better then so much movies!!!
Thank you everyone for linking our work .... its very motivating
Already very good. Made me read up on male to female ratio in bee hives. Informative and entertaining.
Me at first: wow this animation is so good!
Me when i saw the 3D animation: OMGGGG
Gosh that was so beautiful!
Yall better up hold that to be continued!!!
LOVED IT. Its a unique piece of short film. I think she was send out to the feild because master realized she was underestimating how hard fighting off enemies in the real world can get. Even though she was really good at fight - trainings inside their colony, when faced with the real life enemy, she was devastated, scared and self doubting.......But when she saw common civilians without any bit of training trying THEIR BEST to fight off the enemy→ well determined even as they KNOW they won't stand a single chance against the hornet, she got inspired from them and got her courage back making her determined to give her BEST SHOT at the enemy thereby defeating it successfully.
Thank you! You understood the story perfectly
@@ehd543 😁
This shit is AMAZING
This was excellent! This needs a continuation!
14:56 and hello nightmares
Also, I also want this to be a series now!
Brillant!
The voice actors must be amazing
Yes yes!! More please!!!
Damn that was awesome! 👏👏👏👏❤️Wasp are really mean 2x this summer I seen them steal from a spider then I seen one take out a bumble bee! They were so fast I had no time to help the lil bumble bee. It was collecting pollen on one of my sunflowers actually and I was just observing the big ass bumble bee. It seemed to be twice the size of the Yellow Jacket wasp or Hornet. I don't know I get them mixed up. 🤷🏻♀️ And yet it just plucked the bumblebee right out of the air. I was like --->🙀
Best short I've seen so far here! Great scene setting and character development as well as plot and animation 😍
This is really *AMAZING* !!
So the female *BEE Samurai Watriors* are very kickbutt in every single way!! 🥰🐝🐝💥💥💥💥
Oh man this is beautiful this is exactly what I was going to college to do.If this was a show I would be totally addicted to it the animation is just so amazing, you can also tell what’s going on without dialogue.
I look forward to more... Hold you to it...cause u've set up a hell of a battle...
Well this it the long ct i watch
This needs to be a movie :O
Someone should make a petition to kickstart this as a full series
Thank you! You're welcome to check out and share our Patreon page!
Wow!!!! I love this. Especially the pencil test
This needs more attention
FASCINATING animation!!!🙂❤👍
This will be good movie
Wow....amazingly done....waiting for whole story...well done
Thank you!
The animation looks so good, can't wait for the next part.
The fact that this' all gonna be full cgi someday has me hype👌
Yasss
I really think that it looked very interesting and very fascinating to see that
Awesome, Im waiting the next part !
Excellent.
Wow! Great Work on this Masterpiece! I wish this was a full-fledged movie!!!
I love the animtion
I love it, she was a good warrior but didn't /get/ what she was doing this for. So she was put somewhere where she had to see that her cockiness and arrogance were just that. Once she learned who she's even a warrior /for/ is when she's able to become a leader.
damn, i really thought this was gonna be like a love between a bee and a wasp in battle- idk why- just did cuz before they started fighting and just stared at each other i thought there was gonna be that connection, y'know?
Honey bee Bushido? Amazing idea and well executed. Like so many others said, should 🐝 a full length film. Please keep working on it!
I love this animated short bees mix with Asian culture it the bee's reminds me of the Chinese and the hornets reminds me of the Mongolians and the battles they faced many years ago
@@TLGGAMER01 oh okay I didn't know
Fantastic!
Absolutely Majestic
This looks like the Bee movie mixed with an anime and Alien vs Predator.
What a cool animation! I love the samurai vibe to it!
*Stunning work of art*
Thank you very much!
Good story. Absolutely stunning animation. I loved it
That was a bad arse vid, love it from start to finish. Keep it up
Thank you Joseph!
Woooowww. just woooowww🤩
Me and the boys running out of ammonition: god how we gonna do?
