- A pickpocket scours the subway at the command of his inner demons, but when a chance encounter with fate brings a long-lost love back into his life, he must defy the voices in his head and choose a righteous path.

The most unrealistic thing is that no cop would be that dedicated to taking down a pickpocket
Clearly the cop wasn’t as concerned about stopping as pickpocket as he was beating up a guy who challenged his ego
there are cops that shoot at people for talking back, it’s not that far off.
The cop was stolen himself from you can tell he was only made when he checked his pocket
Actually he would since his pocket was picked
I don't think it was that he was actively searching for him, and more that he happened to spot him across the street or something. :P
You guys know we can all see the most replayed parts 😭
No you can’t
LMAOOOO
I can’t see but I’m guessing it’s the tits isn’t it? 😭
i started the video immediatly went there cuz i thought that was the climax. im fricking 12 🥲
dafaq what you doin on here lil bro@@impeebo
Great animation!
For the people complaining about 'love' being the cure to Jacks problem. I don't think it's love so much as finding someone who actually cares about you. That can help a lot.
i thought she was just an allegory for a source of comfort and familiarity to keep your mind straight
@@2ndamendmentandy That too.
I was immediately drawn to this thought, and you immediately helped me re-frame my perceptions about it, and I no longer feel that critical twinge about it. Thanks! ❤
Will love doesn’t have to mean in a relationship with that partner, love mean that you are willing to help or take care of a person that you respect. Just like how I love my friends but I don’t want to pursuit anything else’s from friends. It’s the will to help understand and help for the people that you care for.
❤ I totally agree. You got to begin to love and care for yourself when no one else will.
The fact that the cop chased him down only to not take him in and just take the stuff he stole. This is amazing the art style amazing and the story kept me wanting more I love it I can’t believe I’ve never saw this 🥺😭💖💖
nice dude
Nah fr, I was just like… “yup, that’s a cop.”
Same, just saw the thumbnail and almost didn’t watch it but I’m glad I did (:
Thanks for the spoilers!
@@cavemant4842dont go to comments unless youve watched the vid
it's so unfair that a ripoff of this has more views
Can you give me the link that so called ripoff?
@@Iloveyou-dz7mq just type in pinched and you'll find it
Isn't this the Titmouse official channel?
Its not a rip off if he credits the original
@@night_phoenix8669 they have to ask for permission to the original creators
The way I would just EAT UP a series about this. The animation is INCREDIBLE, the character design are great, and the story feels complete despite being so short. I love this
(the style) reminds me of like an updated version of Downtown, which was a series animated by the executive producers on this
You should watch Mutafukaz the vibes are the same !
@@TheSpaceOctopus yesss mtv downtown
I actually appreciate this story because as someone who faces something very similar (bpd+schizophrenia, what a combo) the visuals is exactly what it's like. Sometimes it's off putting, but tou learn to live with it because it's your norm and you HAVE to. And even if it doesn't ever fully go away, when you can finally heal, it really does feel like everything falls into place. I get turning to a bad lifestyle, could be because you can't function enough to do anything else, or it's all you know you can do, and the monsters within tell you to keep going because deep down you hate what it does to you. But eventually we can get the chance to break that cycle, and it's such a good feeling.
My brain never stops seeing those monsters. Medicine never helped me, and it's how my brain works now. But I can learn to live with it, to not let it define me, and to live freely. It won't chain me down anymore. I hope everyone in these shoes can find that balance, that spark that allows us to move on and be free.
Thank you for making this beautiful little movie Titmouse. It's refreshing and relieving to see such raw, real depictions with good meaning and a good ending.
Probably just another self diagnoser, lmao when you were born? Serious question, when?
So proud of you ❤️, my brother has schizophrenia too and this words of yours will help him out, good luck in your life, I wish you peace and balance.
@@elnongas918 Thank you, Iwish the same for you and your brother my friend. It's rough but we have the strength to face it and it's clear he has someone fighting by his side. That's a wonderful thing. I wish you both the best and take care 🫂
what a beautiful conclusion
Sending much love homie.
This is incredible. All of the feelings depicted in this film are so real and raw. We need your art. Please make more art from the heart like this. (That last part is a message for everyone)
This shit was made in like 2016
got a point? who cares when it was made, it's valid and it's good@@rahteljackson433
Saw this way back in 2015 when i was baked af in bed before a school night. Art style is better than 99 percent of western animation, animation itself is professional grade with a rough around the edges style that goes hard, the dialogue was so realistic and believeable and the whole thing was just a trip no cap on god bruh 10/10
bruh these are the professonal western animation teams.
titmouse is a western animation company, einstein
These two guys totally just assumed that he thought it wasn't Western animation. He was saying it's better than 99% of Western animation. Oh my God the misunderstandings on the internet are just ridiculous.
@@AkkarisFox its still false
@@circleinforthecube5170 You know that's just your opinion man
i cry my ass off every time when she takes his hand in the end and his world is transformed...
Must be hard to sit.
@@manwhoismissingtwotoenails4811lmaooo the fact that this is a reply to comment from 5 years ago makes it even funnier 💀
:,) me too
Must be hard to shit too :(
Fucking spoiler, why can't ppl keep their opinions
This is making me nostalgic for the early 2000s artstyle that was popular at the time
This short film sort of displays a relatable sense(IMO) of how a person dealing with these type of mental issues copes and handles everyday life(not stealing, but emotionally).
I admire every bit of this film and can relate to it on a higher level, personally and truly. I'm confident that this is a product of personal-expression and PHENOMENAL TALENT within their craft(animation).
There's people with AMAZING TALENT that are not able to output their abilities 100% because of the monsters(mental issues) they're fighting/dealing with in their head.
I do not know if David V., the producer of this film, created this, purposely, with the paranoid-schizo/schizoid-trope references in the film, but it is incredibly accurate. I also did deeper research and noticed that he has went on to directing, storyboarding, and much more in some films that were nominees.
It's awesome that such talent has and is still flourishing until this day.
Well deserved.👏🎬
why is this so unpopular even guys who reuploaded this have more views
I remembered , the uploader didnt want to upload it on youtube, he kept wanting the video to be taken down. It was uploaded a few times and taken down a few time and finally no more
@@91010186 but if the original maker didn't want it on youtube, where the other uploader got the animation from?
@@paulcopper299 from titmouse studio. I forgot it was a website or social madia page, but it clearly states that this video is just a advertisement for what their studio is capable of. But the video spread throughout social media and it was a hot video.
@@91010186 ohh that explains. Thank you much.
@@paulcopper299 HE used dark magic probably. you dumb.
Loved this so much, a fantastic display of titmouse' talent in storytelling and visual design
Isn't it vandervoort's
hi from 2023
i watched this i like 2015
i dont think he actually got ''cured by her love'' but rather he saw the way SHE sees the world and HIM through her eyes
I remember watching this years ago, it was cool back then but I appreciate it so much more now and can’t even believe we had such high quality film making at the time, no one just thinks like this anymore it’s sad
Yeah, it wasn't that animation was dead but more that we've stopped looking for art like this and instead just stayed in mainstream/nostalgia... the golden age of animation really shouldn't be a formula, nor what is the next big thing. It's more just the fact you can find good work anywhere you go.
@@chermal7311 perfectly said
it's hard to make passion projects without funding. people end up getting work doing other stuff, and being disillusioned, or never having the ability to make things like this anymore. Patreon actually keeps a lot of indie animators in a position where they can do this - but it' only so much. Otherwise I do recommend Nwgrounds, it's a literal treasure trove of animators and animations
5:47 bro what I didn't expect that to come
Сиски :)
If only it was that easy to dispel mental illness.
Everyone says "how romantic" but it's clear she dismisses mental illness as a mood or a feeling, as in expecting it to pass and everything be okay, when here it is a fundamental component of his entire identity and is not something that will go away regardless of who is or isn't in his life. If anything he will just rebound into a greater spiral into mental illness when he fucks up again. Great animation though, too bad the nuance and subtext are lost on so many.
Thank you! I was worried i was the only one who noticed this is not a great romance
so true, but just hopefully having her with him will prevent that from happening
Exactly! I thought i was alone! The girl is deffo a redflag!
This has Gorillaz vibes.
SAME BRO
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!! IMAGINE SATURNS BARZ OR CLINT EASTWOOD ON THIS
That moment when she takes his hand and the music stops, his expression changes because he’s overwhelmed and barely able to comprehend just how much love can heal. It got me tearing up a bit.
You guys are responsible for animating some of the best shows in the past two decades and you only have 6.5 K Subs, thats just criminal
seriously
i love this art style so much, this vaguely reminds me of invader zim honestly
this is actually so beautiful omg 😭
Honestly reminds me more of Jamie Hewlett’s (the artist for Gorillaz) and so does the soundtrack- when jack was meeting with the soul creature the background music reminded me so much of spitting out the demons or bill Murray
@@johnnyjoestar1909 OH MY GOD YES! i just love jamie hewlett's art and now that you mention it, this really does look like something straight out of tank girl or gorillaz
@@johnnyjoestar1909 I was literally gonna say that oh my god
@@johnnyjoestar1909 the animation/art style also reminded me of “breaking the habit” music video by linkin park
(Oh and the kill bill animation scene too )
It’s really fun seeing someone’s perspective like this. I have mild hallucinations which only come in the forms of shadow people which don’t happen too often (unless I’m feeling incredibly stressed and/or depressed) so it’s nice to see something show that off
Huh
you've never heard of shadow people? @@Gr8_izzie
Huh
It’s crazy how sometimes the right love can transform your dark and evil world into a paradise and a lil brighter❤
lmao he cheated on her, his world wasn’t transformed if he’s gonna do it again
Wow, someone should really go and tell all those idiots at the psychward that all the years of extensive therapy and medication was a waste of time, after all mental illness is so easily cured with a bit of love, right?
@@dyinginside3797 nope
i do not think that was the point of their comment, but go off with your magnificent misunderstanding@@dyinginside3797
oh my god I thought I would never see this masterpiece again, one of my favorite animations of the 2010's and of all time. The crazy style and the voice acting are AMAZING
I always loved how differently and pretty realistically all the characters were shaped, even one off background characters had so much personality to them. The movement and music and just EVERYTHING I absolutely LOVE it. Gives me iron giant vibes if it were a grittier and more mature movie.
The first step to letting others get close to you and accept you is to first accept yourself for who you are. Don't condemn the worst sides of you, let it be out in the open and get to know it. The knowledge of it's existence, its behaviours and how it makes you feel will make it easier for you to work on and this in turn will prevent it from controlling your actions and life.
Wow…I usually associate Titmouse with some pretty trippy stuff, but this was REALLY engaging and beautiful: the kinetic and smooth hand drawn animation, the kickass soundtrack, and a pretty interesting take on mental issues with a heartwarming end. Just that image alone of the guy having his hand held and all the terrifying monsters fading away was near tear jerking.
It’s a shame this doesn’t have more views even after all these years.
I remember watching this years ago. There was so much I did not remember from the first time around. It was worth watching again!
Damn, Dib from invader zim has gone through some shit
I’m so sorry so many tik toks have just stolen your content and get so much more views and likes
that entire app is just reposted content for idiots who dont care who makes what and just want to be mindlessly entertained, shits so annoying bro
without realizing it, I created my own characters based on this animation. i love this type of story and style so much.
I SAW THIS YEARS AGO AND I COULDN'T REMEMBER THE NAME!!! I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT A FEW WEEKS AGO AND IT POPPED UP ON MY RECOMMENDED. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS ANIMATION. SO GLAD I FOUND IT AGAIN
im so glad this is getting spread around again!! i saw this years ago near when it first came out and ive fallen in love with this type of geometric visual language for animations. a partner of mine is schizoaffective and has bpd and rly struggles with reality and scary stuff like this but they've told me that other people and having those meaningful connections rly does help them ground themselves in reality and make everything less scary
i love the rough line work as a character design choice.
The absolute rollercoaster of emotions, the fluid art style and animation, the realistic morally grey characters…. I love it! 💝✨
this is so good. you can see that he was fighting it so hard 🥺
6:40 WheRe yoU ThInk Yu GoiNg BoY??
Kratos
Now that’s a line
I miss this story telling. All of the truths and no lies *slaps my hand together* collided with a hot cup of black coffee
I watched it when i was like 12,13 years old it was just a cool animation for me. Now i understand it and it makes me tear up.
it's incredible that not many people knows this channel exists
I love how it shows how much just one person can have an impact on some ones life
I love the part when he grabs the hands of the other self and embrace him even the worse parts.
Really deep and meaningful
Bro was the ops
Love the sketchy look to it, amazing short.
This is so Fucking good! You guys should make like an animated series of some sorts, like I’m seriously so impressed with this! Good job guys
Titmouse is involved with producing the american animation series Pantheon by the way
As well as Hanna Zuki. @@RahtimarY
they've literally made too many shows to list. they are all great - starting from the original, "Downtown"., in the 90's. There's also a great animated show called Kiff on CN - & My favorite, Metalocalypse@@RahtimarY
oof the feeling that person gives you. that moment of peace and clarity is everything. thank you for representing this in such a creative way!!!!!
Even after 7 years i cant stop watching it
This is a masterpiece. The animation, the history, everything should get more recognition, and i believe, probably 1 or 2 years in the future, this will have the views it deserves
why am i only just now seeing this??? This is absolutely amazing! the art style, the story, the everything. I just love it so much!
I'm ao glad I came back to this like 5 years later. It's still as beautiful and amazing as I remembered it
In the end someone can make a difference in your life and that someone might just be yourself.
Coming up on shrooms when I found this, loving it. Very accurate mental illness shit. Like, try explaining to someone there's a witch doctor in your head making you do shit. Brains are so weird.
This is a masterpiece. No words can describe it in my mind
this is extraordinary, when she held his hand and light came to his life i tore up. this animation is a work of art
I wish this was a comic book or a full series
Damn this is awesome! Why TF does the sped up version of this has more views?
Tictok attention deficit
Obsessed with this short, I've watched this at least 5 times this past week
Something about 2016 makes me think i was happier back then
Watched this on a high school night. Enjoyed every single second.
7 years later after ignoring this video i finally watched it, gotta say it was genuinely amazing in every aspect & detail.
This video means a lot to me. Kinda perfectly described my life at a certain point in time to an extent. It's a lot different now, but this video always hits close to home for me.
Man.. everytime i see this it gives that warm fuzzy feels from that person who makes you feel truly loved
I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT FROM THIS ANIMATION BRO 💀😭(5:44)
I remember watching this when it came out years ago; im SO happy to see it pop up in my recs again! Amazing work.
I CANNOT believe how little views this has, truly a masterwork of art
This isn’t the original video, the original had at least 2 million back when I first saw it
@@draconicusmathiusanytherio7630 ah good good
This deserves more love 100%.
I'm very happy this exists.
That was one of the top 3 best shortfilms I've ever seen, I'm really disappointed it took CZcams 7 years to recommend it to me
Dude this is amazing. Everything about it was so well done
7 years and this is still one of the best short video
3:53 I JUST NEED TO KNOW THE NAME OF THE SONG IN THIS SCENE,IT HITS SO HARD😭🔥🔥🔥🔥
GOLLY,THIS WHOLE ANIMATION IS JUST PERFECT
Yea please let me know if you find that song
This reminds me of Downtown.
It’s definitely got that same vibe.
I’ve seen the cafe scene of this posted about a million times with the caption “amazing what a footjob under the table can do for a man” or something like that and it’s crazy that this video doesn’t have like a billion views
This is so beautiful!
Thank you for this!❤
Thank you for uploading this, I am searching for this clip from a year.
That was a trip, really glad this got recommend to me. What an amazing short story! I love the art style. Especially the fast moving parts were very impressive.
Who subscribed because of the animation of Diablo and even liked it more because of this? All I have to say in this short movie is WOW!♥
5:47 That caught me off guard 😂
"we can do great things together"
I love the afro demon scene And his art style 🔥
one of the best animations on youtube
It's been 6 years since I first saw this animation, seeing it under even 200k views is criminal
4:43 bro this is incredible
im suprised this video isnt in the millions of views, i remember watching this a long time ago and it was so nolstalgic to watch it again
Thank you, we can all be redeemed by a kindness shown in understanding.
i havent seen this in so many years, still rad and beautiful as the first time i saw it god
was one of the animations that really inspired me to keep goin with this medium
This is amazing animation and story 10/10. Really happy that it appeared in my recommendations.
I remember watching this way back when it first came out, such a rush of memories to see youtube recommend it to me again
5:45 caugh me off guard dawggg
6:29 nice Address
5:46 y’all mfs are down bad for this scene to be the most replayed💀

Wresting control of yourself from yourself is the first step of healing. That internal merge - his hallucinations haven't gone away, but his fear and hate no longer control his actions. He's managed to get that agency back, so he's able to start moving towards someplace better.
(I say, projecting heavily)
Huh, thanks random recommendation
I loved every instant of this video. The animation in INCREDIBLE, if not GALACTIC!!! The artstyle is AMAZING, kinda reminds me of Jamie Hewlett! This is just a piece of art
1:23 you can't tell me that's not the femur breaker scream but pitched up
It's been seven years but it still slaps. It makes you feel like you were drinking fresh warm milk when you were 8 years old.
This is just masterclass of animation and story telling.
Perfect metaphor for life without/with her❤️
Saw this YEARS ago and it freakin changed my brain chemistry. Couldn’t remember what it was called but I’m glad I found it again
i would watch a supernatural length series in this artstyle and never get sick of it
this animation is like, my favorite thing. the vibe. this. immaculate. oh my god
