It’s one of those “watch the entire mystery skulls animation saga” nights
Yeah, you are right...

That's tonight
Yep
Took me a sec to realize you weren't from today ,XD
remember when in 2014 literally everyone in the world collectively went batshit crazy when this epic video dropped.......wild times
I know right...crazy times.
Lol remember when the pony fandom was in one spot and all over the place but now you see people with a pony pfp scattered among CZcams comments?

Yep. I agree. That's what happened.
and we're all still visiting back on this series in 2020 i love that
Yes, I mean we have to wait till October hopefully for more videos thanks to mystery skulls releasing their new album
I’m still waiting happily for the next video on this series including their other song because the series is just so good
To bad we will be died to rewatch this.
Yes lmao
Heart I was looking through my watch later vids and remembered how hard I used to bop to these lmao
I think what’s interesting about this whole storyline is that Arthur is not jealous that Vivi and Lewis are together because he wants Vivi or Lewis. He’s jealous because he wants something like that and feels like a third wheel constantly. I like that the animators did that rather than another toxic love triangle because it does make all characters likeable
I mean also he just. Isn't as into the ghost hunting thing? He doesn't find it fun!
yeah he may look disinterested in the car ride, but then he's holding onto lewis for safety in the cave. he doesnt actually hate either of them
Wait, is that why the yellow guy killed the purple guy? I thought his arm took over or the dog was controlling him?
Arthur (the yellow guy) arm did takeover and pushed Lewis (the ghost guy) into the spikes so the dog who I believe is called mystery bit off Arthur’s possessed arm which is why he has a prosthetic one
@@s0x591 Damn, where am I missing all this lore?
This music video is more faithful to the Scooby Doo franchise than the entirety of the "Velma" show
Hell yes
Lmaooo
LOL
It was recently voted the most hated show on Netflix.
I've got to agree, they did exactly what lead to Louis getting pushed off the cliff, get an existing character and giving them a brand new personality, the only difference is that one was changed by possession and the other was to "make it creative" lol

It's hard to believe that this is going to turn into a decade long video in just a few months time.

Coming back to this again just to enjoy the insane storytelling despite no words actually TELLING a story. you can understand everything that happens over the course of the video, just. absolutely stunning

Cartoon Logic: Gravity doesn't work until you look down.
An Artist That Loves Art Lmao
am I the only one that thought about that one cartoon related episode in season 8 of Supernatural where that man jumped off a building to commit suicide only to float in the air only to fall when he looked down? probably just me, i'm Supernatural trash xD.
That's an animation principle. you need to give people enough time to see the hole so that the actions are more predictable and easier to understand.
It's called anticipation.
Best lodgic
An Artist That Loves Art cartoon logic is best logic
The year is 2022, this animation is like, 8 years old already, and it still doesn't get the recognition it deserves; it has so much heart and depth packed into what looks like a child's scribble. This has the same breath of maturity hiding behind an innocent style that made the original "gold age" Cartoon Network cartoons so great and memorable. It's a shame something with so much soul like this is getting "lost in time".
WORD! I just found this gem and have been listening on repeat hahah
48 *MILLION VIEWS* and it still doesn't get the recognition it deserves?
You don't know the meaning of the word then. Yes, it's a great song but that's just ridiculously said.
It's interesting to note that at the beginning, we see the trio of Arthur, Vivi and Mystery all happy with wherever it is that they're going. Meanwhile, when we see the flashback to when our ghosty friend was alive, Arthur looks more dejected than anything. His arm only started possessing him during the cave, but the colorization was green as it took control...such as green with envy. I don't think Arthur was wanting Vivi to himself or anything, but maybe he was envious that Lewis, our ghosty friend, had all that Arthur wanted? He was the leader, had a girl he loved and a goal in life while Arthur was in the background unable to get into the front seats. He had taken Lewis' place in the van, being part of the foreground whereas before, he was merely in the background barely able to be seen behind the others. Maybe he felt there just wasn't room for himself in the gang unsure of what to do?
I think conceptually this is the case, but on a more literal story-case, it was most likely... Spoilers below:
A possession of some kind, as we see that Mystery ripped the arm off (presumably to stop the spread), and when the reflection shows him, it's with no arm. So the possessing force may have fed off, or be conceptually based on, envy but that same force (black and green coloration) possesses Mystery at the end of The Future. And when that happens, it's after the loss of the plant woman, not something that would necessarily spark "envy" of all things.
@@dahliarose6024 interesting, I was more thinking that it was a piece of her that transferred when Mystery got attacked, like how we saw her hand crawling back and reattaching to her, same as her head in Freaking Out. I figured that instead of doing that, she used that control to take control of Mystery.
@@Swordkiller55623Nah, at the end of The Future we see it rewind and very clearly show his arm appear and squeeze Mystery's heart causing the transform into Murder Mystery.
We also see the arm cowering in fear and fleeing at the sight of Shiromiro, so it likely took the chance to use Mystery dying to take over his body and defeat her.
Either way 100% the arm possessed Mystery at the end, not only was it clearly shown but they took the time to show us the same events again immediately after to show why they happened, reason being he was possessed by the arm when he was dying.
This is Scooby-Doo but with very different music and Shaggy fucking murders Freddy and he tries to get revenge as a skeleton ghost thingy.
Shaggy/arthur
Freddy/lewis/dead
And Scooby-Doo is a nine-tailed fox.
I mean......you aren’t wrong
Kinda except how would that go?
Daphne didn’t make the cut
Basically Scooby-Doo, except Daphne and Velma merged into one person, who is mainly blue, and also Shaggy brutally murdered Fred after being possessed by a demon, and Scooby is an ultra-powerful magic dog.
Saeed Totonchi lol
For me it seemed like scooby controlled shaggy or something i dont know
Saeed Totonchi the girl being a kind of mix between Daphne and Velma would make sense if it wasn't for that VERY Shaggy and Scooby Doo typical scene with her and the dog having sandwiches stacked to the dang ceiling. lol but yeah, this was sad, especially the ending. 😢
Saeed Totonchi basically

Man I've missed these guys hahaha
I just got done watching it its amazing
Yeah
same, maaz
Get ready for 2020. For the next part! Yay. Good shit tho
Sameeeee
Why couldn't Velma be this
Honestly the realization that these music videos did a far better job at a Scooby Doo show then something officially produced is why I'm back here.
i remember how fascinating i was when i found out about mystery skulls
I literally just searched "pink ghost man singing owowowowowo ah" and it worked
Liar
@@sowedidit how do you know
@@tallic967 looked it up
I searched up skeleton pink hair floating suit glow
I searched for "Scooby doo animation song" and it worked too, lmao
It took me too long to realize Vivi SAW Lewis die, so the whole glowy eye thing at 3:12 is him making her forget... Which is why Freaking Out shows that they've been searching for Lewis this whole time, thinking he's just gone missing
Thanks for pointing that for me your awesome
Oh my goddd ur right she probably thinks he's alive noooooo
Oh no ;∆;
Oh yeah, also at 2:59 you can see her at the bottom right of the cavern.
YES and thank you for sharing this information with me😔😔😊❤️❤️😎🤯🧐💯💯💯🤐🥺🥺
ok everybody talks about the music video and the animation itself (which i know is legendary) but can we appreciate the mixing on the song? love the synths so much and the nu disco nature of this song.
Idek the series people are talking about I remember it from wwe 2k15 and got hooked
Yes exactly what I’m saying. This type of genre is what I’m into and I always get overhyped whenever this song or the album plays!
So true. Love this song and it's a childhood favorite bc my dad showed this video to me when I was like 8 and he was really pumped about it! The disco vibe is crazy
also I am the one who took away your 69 likes muhahahah
I miss the feeling this song gives me that uncertainty of who I am and who I'm supposed to be. Now my subconscious keeps me down but someday someday I'll be free
''Ghost'' is lowkey a CZcams Classic. They did such a good job telling a whole narrative in under 5 minutes. Ugh I love Mystery Skulls so much.
Forever ingrained in CZcams culture as we;l
wait... THAT was under 5 minutes?! with how much story was throw at me it felt like a full polished movie!
UNDER 5 MINUTES?

Yooo! I totally I forgot about this video💀 I used to watch it all the time, in 2018? Or 2016 idk I forgot.💀👍🏼
My childhood.😎🤘
1:26 This just occurred to me.
What if the mirror's are showing us what's real? It's the mirror's truth.
Vivi has been blinded by lies.
Arthur's arm isn't real.
Mystery's true form is too powerful for the mirror to reflect.
I just love that scene. It's really well done.
I'm really curious about what might happen to Vivi, from hellbent we already know what mystery is and we learned in this one that mystery snatched that crunchy ghost infested arm off of Arthur
I also love how, at 2:22, you still can't see mystery's reflection on the floor, unlike Vivi's, nice attention to detail.
@@CompletelyNewguy Oh wow, that's neat.
@@foureyedpossum4613 for anyone wondering, 3:14

Rewatching it now that “The Future” is out
And seeing this compared to the future... wow the animation got a Big glow during each time it got out, like it is notable that in each one the animation is getting to move more smoothly then the last one, specially on the future. My favorite part would be the fight of Viví Vs shiromori, I really can’t wait for the next video... welp now time to go back to my tomb until the 5th episode is out in 2022. Buh Bye guys.

It was
sweet soup we still missing like 1or possibily 2 music videos
3:14 the human part of arthur is crying, I’ve seen this video tons of times and this is my first time seeing that. We know that he didn’t mean to push Lewis, and that it was a demon esc thing that possessed his left side which pushed Lewis off. Every time I see this I learn more, this series is amazing
This is true, but I think the thing that possessed him was actually amplifying his emotions. Because earlier in the van, Arthur looked very upset. So I believe that the spirit took advantage of that. Idk, all I know, is that Arthur would never kill someone on purpose lol.
I believe it was the bat that opened its eyes when they entered the cave. I would assume it has some sort of relation to the plant chick (not sure what her name is), as Arthur’s possessed smile is the exact same as her’s.
I think it was the Dog to be honest. The dog shows up on each scene Arthur is possessed and is seen at 3:15 kinda showing his true self it seems. Perhaps it's always been the dog.
Edit: Further evidence at 1:24 the dogs mirror shatters. Maybe it showed something inside that the mirror couldn't handle? This is all just a Theory, A Mystery Theory! Thanks for reading.
Joshua G Mystery is the one who ripped off Arthur’s possessed arm though. Why would Mystery possess the arm and then immediately rip it off so that it couldn’t be possessed again?
Watch hellbent and just watch ghost Lewis’ face in the last frames.
its been like 9 years and i still love this
i love how this video pretended to be a scooby-doo but rhytmic but then rapidly gave us loads lore and then became a (uncomplete) series
Apparently the creator of the animated series revealed that episode 5 has been delayed to October 2024.
Something about not knowing how to continue the story. Or something like that.
