    Interesting choice have the weird illusion stuff even effect Odysseus; like just speaking the siren makes him think of a time before everything went to hell, lol. Also, really cool choice to have the sirens literally boarding the ship; adds to threat they present that they don't necessarily NEED men to jump into the water, and I fully get why the crew is ducking out of sight until the right time in that case. Great stuff!

      Absolutely. It explores this heartbreaking idea of Ody wanting to be affectionate with the siren but needing to remember at the same time who she really is. Like almost letting himself get carried away a bit before pulling himself back to reality.

  • @SakuraMikan1
    @SakuraMikan1 Před měsícem +101

    I absolutely LOVE how subtle it was that the Siren was feeling weak to Odysseus, and that stemmed from the fact that Ody was showing all his love that he had for Penelope onto her look-alike. It seemed as if she knew “he really cares for this person”.
    Adding onto that it really felt like instead of the Siren trying to lure in Ody it was the other way around, I could practically feel it when she put the child in Ody’s arms. Him holding the child and the Siren looking so warm and content because he himself was so soft with the kid! And then the subtle eye shift of the child’s ‘human’ eyes to ‘siren’ eyes, as if the child was reminding her what the point of all this was. LOVE IT ❤❤❤

    • @ilyte1
      @ilyte1 Před měsícem +22

      Genuine "Oh no" Is honestly I think a better choice than the eye roll. Remember, the sirens are used to putting up a literal paradise of a front. Plus on some level, they understand how scary poseidon is. It's not hard to fake empathy.
      AND It, of course, adds a layer of tragedy in the next song

    • @loonelytoon6523
      @loonelytoon6523 Před měsícem +13

      ​@@ilyte1 Totally agree: even if she was only faking interest it would have been a better choice. Still, it's definitely dubious how often this particular siren faked her emotions, because of that blown-away expression she has when he touches her chin. She should have known better than thinking a girl may be so pleasently flabbergasted by her partner touching her.

      ​@@Just_a_therian_in_cabin_7 I feel awful telling you that there is at least another animatic of this song where the little siren is seeing being captured (if it helps, they looked much more feral there than here), and some other youtuber is going to animate the follow-up song with at least a couple of teenage sirens being murdered (but he already said he won't show it). Unfortunately this moment, just as many others in the musical, has written angst all over its face, and becomes even worst when animated because you can see more of the sirens and that, like Polyphemus or Circe, they may be magical or monstrous but still have something humane in them. But I have to say the Siren falling for Ody in this animatic here is probably the angstier it would ever get. It's so hard to process he is going to kill her, but it is also so intense and after all it's what the story is about: Ody becoming the worst version of himself.
      EDIT: Btw, since I wrote this I think there have been at least other two animatics of this song featuring the little siren, and one even got its follow-up where she clearly got killed, even if it isn't shown.

    I saw how Odysseus was tied to a pole, in one of the versions of the myth Odysseus actually ties himself while they passed by the sirens so he can listen to their songs. Love it! I love the many interpretation the Epic fandom makes! IT'S SO FUN SEEING EACH LITTLE EASTER EGG THAT EITHER CONNECTS TO THE MYTH ITSELF OR CREATES A BIGGER IMPACT! AH! In love.

    OOF, I absolutely adore this! First off, i love your design for Siren!Penelope, both in the illusion form and the fishy form. i also love Odysseous, and how once the ilusion sets in he becomes younger, I catched it in the second time rewatching, and it's such a nice touch! I love the way you draw anamtomy of the body and hands. The crew waiting beneath the floor was fun, and a good way to fully portray the true form of penelope. I also love how in this animatic instead of being below the water, siren!Penelope was already on the ship, as it to portray a more homely scene to lure them into lowering their guard. I also adore the "daughter", they were adorable and i wonder if they were a siren as well. An instersting idea brought in the shot with the crew is that the beeswax means the ilusion isn't working, so odyssoues is just REALLY good at roleplaying. The siren also appears to get a bit too into the role, a lot of animatics have siren!Penelope be bored when tricking him, stating the thing about scylla but the sirens expressions 1:55 seems to imply they're legitimatelly shocked at her answer. Oh yeah, i also love your scylla design! I adore everyones expressions thought the whole thing, and the way the ilusion somewhat glitches out at 2:25 before setting back in. I love the final shot with odysseous and his sword, you are awesome!.

My heart. Also fhdhshsh the crew popping up deck, seeing the Siren, and going 'nope'. I love the others climbing onto the ship and their faces when Scylla is mentioned, as well as the brief glimpse of her in this! And Siren qualities popping up as the song goes on, like the spikes, ears and eyes and the glitches!!! This is so good!!!! Also OUGHH the sword, which means he has to stab the thing that looks like his wife.

    Something I havent seen anyone else mention: whether it was intentional or not, every siren (including Scylla) has a strand/chunk of hair hanging in front of their face from the water. Siren!Pen has this in her disguise as well, but it isnt affected by the water. Brilliant I tell you ❤

  • @remonssi6997
    @remonssi6997 Před 23 dny +2

    I kind of liked how for the beginning part of the song, it's the siren closing the distance and Odysseus consistently stepping away, but when he asks her about what route to take, he's the one stepping close and the siren's the one turning away to answer. Combined with the fact that it looks like the siren's face does turn sad hearing his situation and even right before she answers his question, it feels like this version's siren shows genuine sympathy for him, even if she is still going to eat him.
    I saw a lot of other animatics show the siren as uninterested in Odysseus' plight or taking joy in telling him, so this was an interesting interpretation.
    Though, this siren does go back to smiling as she tells him the answer's "the lair of Scylla", but I liked how serious her face was while initially giving the answer. Because even the sirens take gods' wrath seriously I guess. And when she goes back to smiling, I feel like maybe it's more relief because facing Scylla is bad enough that some people might choose to die here than take that path, so in a way, the siren might still feel assured that she has her prey or that being eaten is the "better" option/a mercy for Odysseus.
    Then again, I could be entirely wrong and she's just a really good actress committing to the bit.

Didnt even notice that cool detail of oddy getting younger when penelope tries using a mirage of sorts to lure him into a “pre mosnter era” or “greeting the world with open arms mindset” Also the crew hiding there is hilarious.

  • @TheCatInATux
    @TheCatInATux  Před měsícem +4

    Just a fun thing to drop by here! The entire animatic odysseus never looked away from penelope (apart from putting down the kid) because he’s reading her lips ^^ that’s why his sometimes ‘off’ look was on purpose and to answer some headcannons
    He didn’t hear the song, he felt the mist or the smoke ^^ !!

    • @TropicalHorror
      @TropicalHorror Před měsícem +3

      Oh, that makes sense. I thought he was affected just enough to see her as Penelope but not to believe she was actually her, because he was so close that some enchanting soundwaves should have reached him. But I don't really know how proficient beeswax is in isolating sounds, so he could have totally heard nothing at all.

  • @rosalyntressell8680

    My theory with the daughter is that the Sirens can only pick up on what people want, so she interpreted a desire for a daughter as a desire for a person who already exists, instead of wanting to go home and have more children with Penelope.

      I want it too but I also don't. The siren seems to have gotten the hugest crush on him because of how gentle and caring he was. He even pulled out his sword *right in front of her* and she didn't even notice, still tenderly taking his whole frame up. The continuation of that will be *extremely* painful.
