As a Takodachi, words cannot express my happiness, seeing Ina being introduced as a character in this amazing series

We never do get an answer as to why Gura left Atlantis in her lore other than "it was boring", but seeing that as an answer to hide something more sinister is an amazingly unique direction to take this. Looks amazing.

I love this gritty visual aesthetic, the limited animation and the lack of dialogue. It provides so much room for the animation and score to shine.

4:17 this shot looks like it belongs in a multimillion production. Having something this high quality for free on KZfaq is insane. Kudos to the team.

You guys are really deserving of some sort of official partnership or commission from Cover, this is practically film quality.

Holy crap, this looks like a trailer for a full movie.

Couple things I noticed on Ame's cork board. 2:48 A newspaper article titled "Dead are missing!!!" which could be a reference to Rushia or Ollie. 2:58 Sticky note marking October 14th of 2007 as the day that Ame found gura. The 07 is kinda squished in there which made me doubt it at first, but there are other sticky notes a bit above it dated September 10th and 12th 2006. So it would seem that this series is set in the 2000's.

Any personal theories you have? Leave a comment below 😤 we'll take a look!

Can't wait to see the full animation. The style reminds me of Tim Burton's work, and that's the highest praise possible.

*OMG, INA IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!* Dude, this isn't just a Hololive fan film project anymore, it has transcended to be some of the best short films I've seen on this platform!

I like the way Ame is slowly collecting mythical creatures in her house. She knows its gonna be a mess but she wouldnt want it any other way 💛

It's only a matter of time before we get Calli and Kiara to complete Myth in this series. As for Ina's introduction, I can't wait to see how she ties in to Gura's past.

Hololive fanbases always amaze me, pumping out bangers like this animation, Holocure, Idol showdown and other fanmade works Not even other agencies/vtubers can get this even if they can pay for, it just Hololive fans doing what they passionate about

It almost feels like a crime having this made entirely for free viewing on KZfaq. This animation deserves to be funded and supported immensely, I loved every second of it.

5:21 ngl that's the same camerawork for introducing Godzilla in the 2014 movie, except one was badass and this is beautiful and charming, both worked perfectly

5:36 This is now my headcanon of when Ame recruited Bijou.

HELL YEAH WE GOT SOME GURA LORE LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the top animators I’ve ever seen, this is gonna be incredible!

Hololive should hire you guys for a full tv series

2:47 "but that's forbidden love!" 2:59 "Really Pog" Scientist Says

This literally deserves more recognition and praise. Y'all let the Holo ladies know about this and/or other streamers that are into Vtubers. This needs to be out there.

I love the mood that these shorts have. They’re playful but also really dark in parts

I absolutely love this story. Thanks for creating it.

3:40 Omg the Jaws lick here xD

Love the style of the animation, can't wait to see the final version! Edit: INAAAAAAA

INA LOOKS SO PRETTY OMG the intro sequence looked amazing, great job all of you

Ina is really beautiful. I can't wait to see the next chapter. Thank you for creating such a wonderful video.

The opening shot is breathtaking, the eldritch entity is all consuming and unstoppable. You can see the destruction of Atlantis inside the eye at the beach during Gura’s nightmare. Great work everyone at Crash landing studio.

Playing all of the Hololive backstory straight yields suprisingly good results.

Got Coraline vibes, but I find this animation drawing style superior. Hope this becomes a full feature movie/series eventually. Independent animation work has become far superior than the crap mainline studios put out nowadays.

I love how the low framerate adds to the characters' charm... If I could describe your animation in terms of food, I'd liken it to freshly oven-baked bread. Warm, fluffy and soft... made with a careful, handmade touch.

4:28 "You can't be mad at me, I'm cute!" Ame, without hesitation: YEET

I hope this is nice and long, cause a amazing animated movie like this released on my birthday is going to be AMAZING!

Words cannot express just how hyped I am for this

Pixar has all the funding, animators, writers, and legacy - and you've bested them in two short films. I look forward to becoming a patron when I get a new job lol

Gura the sole heir of the Atlantean legacy. I love that the animations are getting more and more better each time! Thank you for your passion!

She should have a watch party with ame when this drops

One of the more underrated Hololive animation artists to date Edit: WAH

This is what unbridled love of a fandom looks like. Fucking incredible man.

There is so much to love about this studio's work! There is so much love and passionate and effort on full display!

Ina will be on the next part lezgoooo. Also, thank you for all the people involved in this project 💜🍪

God I love what you've done to substitute dialogue. The music, body language and sfx are a perfect fit!

素晴らしい作品でした。 気になる展開、キャラもしっかり作られていて、世界に引き込まれました。

i love the way how ending music becomes upbeat and positive after Ina's arrival. Good vibes.

Dedication. Love. Passion. All that and more is present with how this turned out. I cannot even begin to convey how much I adore these animations. You all perfectly complement the term "visual storytelling", letting the animation speak for itself. I hope Hololive sees this, so that they know talented people like you all breathe so much life to the fandom.

All the care put into the smallest details for props that get a second or two of attention , that’s freaking amazing.

This should blow up. The amount of quality you guys spent on these animations are beyond impressive. You earned a new fan, do hope to see more!❤

Doesn't matter how long these take, i will watch them. Great work

This was absolutely incredible. While I do not have the knowledge the truly appreciate the amount of effort that must have went into this I at least understand that this kind of superlative quality is something absurd to attain, especially for a fanwork. You did a wonderful job leaning into the animations strengths, the expressions, music and the animation itself doing a wonderful job of conveying emotion and intent in the absence of speech, this was helped along by the environmental storytelling as well, if one is willing to pause a fair bit then someone can find a detail rich environment with a lot of care put into it, dense with references, call backs and bits of information to be gleaned about the girls and how they fit in this world. The opening sequence was spectacular. Within the fandom there has been plenty of conceptions of how Atlantis may have fallen, how, why and when and so on but this is probably one of the most visceral renditions of it I have seen. Ame's scene with the board was also brilliantly done, it conveyed the idea and concept wonderfully while also being detail rich for those who wanted to explore it, but not so much so as to overwhelm and obscure from a more casual viewing. The little references scattered throughout where very cute. The scene of Ame walking into the bathroom did a great job of capturing proper horror vibes in both the music and how the visual information and cues were displayed so that worked wonderfully, the shot of Gura tearing up the board was iconic. Gura puzzling over the picture of Ame and Ina just before Ina turns up was both a good visual in terms of pre informing the reader that Ina and Ame already know each other so helping to contextualise Ina turning up while also expanding on the two's background in this animated series a little, but also the fact Gura fixates on her a little suggests that either Gura was naturally curious about it, or perhaps was making the link between the horror that destroyed Atlantis and Ina, if on a subconscious level if not fully aware of it. Ina's introduction at the end was very well done as well. That steady pan up to show off her design was very nice and highlighted the amount of work you all must have put in to capturing her look and made a great cliff-hanger to end on. Well sorry for the rambling, just saying, thank you again for the great work. It was highly enjoyable.

I was completely engrossed in the story the whole time and then went back to go frame by frame on the detective board. It's clear how much effort, care, and skill was put into this. Absolutely incredible work. Can't wait to see more

This truly has been my main inspiration to actually start telling my stories through 3D modeling and settings, this channel only needs a small team to make such amazing projects in a short amount of time, if you guys can do it so can i!

I can only dream of a 2 hour movie like this with voice acting from the ladies themselves.

this studio is gonna hit it big one of these days, only a matter of time. ☝️

I love stop-motion shows, so i can't wait to see what art I'm gonna see

You're getting better and better at it! Can't wait to see more

I can't believe Biboo was already here 5:38

The most perfect way of introducing Ina! Amazing series so far too!

See, Ame was the one who found the Advent Girls while on vacation. Spot the Bijou 5:35

The animation is like LAIKA, it’s amazing

The moment I realised who'd be introduced in this episode, my heart was made instantly full. You guys are making some truly amazing stuff at a quality I've rarely ever seen from fan projects!

Goodness me, I was _so_ happy with your other work and I've watched it over and over but now it's a _series_ with a _story_ and _INA?!?!_ Bless you CLS, you're a wonderful part of this community and we treasure you

man now I cant wait for the weekend just to see this !!

OMG her holding the little Bloop plush I can't. The voice work you did with Gura is so good, perfect level for how non-vocal your movies are. That Ina is ADORABLE.

I've never seen a character designed in an artstyle so perfectly until I saw Ina, you guys deserve way more subs because the quality of these animations make me want to watch them in a big screen with popcorn.

I feel like your series of animations is pure art. The visual direction, the way you manage to tell a story without dialogue, it’s all so perfect, I’m always just so stoked to see more. Ultimately it’s just wildly compelling. Thank you for creating and sharing your creations.

Incredible! There were some really stunning shots in this. The scenes of the storm, Gura washing up on shore, and her tearing up the map made me audibly gasp at how nice it looked. You've got a really good thing going here. I thoroughly enjoyed this and I'm excited for what's to come!

Love the piano slamming with the bump at around 3 mins in

5:20 I love how Ina's show up time is her birthday too

This work deserves so much more attention! I can tell so much effort goes into every aspect of it

can't wait for it!

2:16 that one funny frame with Gura's face halfway through the surface of the bathwater mentioned in the behind-the-scenes stream

Gura sleeping in a bathtub full of water is a weirdly cute detail.

Damn, the shear amount of talent poured into this is astonishing.

GREAT job on the animation! Kudos to everyone involved! It's always hard to believe how talented and skillful Hololive fans can get. This was absurdly high quality!

1:32 gura stranding 3:24 DETECTIVE. ARRIVING. ON THE SCENE.

Bro, that first shot we see of Atlantis underwater along with the music reminded me so much of Land of the Lustrous when I first saw it. Y'all are doing great!!

You deserve praise. Good style, Good story telling, Good art direction. WAH

AHHH ITS SO GOOOD 😭😭 The team did amazing! I love the animation so much, the facial expressions were done so well!

I really love this series. 次回へ続ける切り方がもう映画のそれで、ほんとに次が楽しみ。

thank you so much for do somethig this amazing, in every moment you can know what their feeling without any simple word

Both the designs and animation are so full of character and life, even the backgrounds are just brimming with interesting detail, and it's amazing to see how well you folks can weave a narrative together without any dialogue... This is really a superb project. I can't wait to see more installments!

Woah, this was another phenomenal animation! Lots of cool references on that pin board to analyze and dissect! It's also interesting to see that Atlantis seems to have fallen because of the Ancient Ones. Perhaps Gura's encounter with that entity caused her feral nature to let loose? And that ending... What a cliffhanger to end on lmao.

Gura: "YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME!" Ina: I don't even know who you are.

Ina looks adorable in this art style.

This is impressive! Most movies i see today dont come close to this kind of artistic style. You have my respect! for whatever that's worth.

First of all, love the animation and storytelling without the use of words, you get to feel every moment of the story taking place and that makes it much more approachable! Second, thank you for making me and my takodachi heart squeal with joy! I am flabbergasted and looking forward to more exciting animations and adventures with the growing cast!

Wow this was fantastic, I was sucked into the whole animation despite there being 0 voices, well despite the Goob's growls lol. Those 6 minutes flew by so quickly, I really can't wait to see what else you have in store.

I love this so much. There's even a bit of voice acting now!

I love so much your work! the last frame could be an amazing wallpaper. It's just incredible actually how much beautiful is every scene on screen. Congratst!! ✨🤍✨

The wordless storytelling here is great, also, I love Ina's model and the way possessed Gura moves

the intro is insane wtf the environment n lighting just look fantastic

That slo-mo shot of Gura tearing at the board with the red strings streaming through her fingers was awesome! Such great work.

2:47 Olivia?

I don’t even watch this as holo fan, I just think it’s really amazing artwork and storytelling. It’s genuinely gorgeous.

2:48 oh hey theres Olivia

2:12 Thats quite the sinister WAH.

the glints of blue in gura's eyes when there's just the right amount of face shadow is really cool. 2:48 "but that's forbidden love!" and the sound design is pretty stellar too. on my second watch i heard the picture frame fall on the floor after amé slammed the door, i was wondering how it got there and it was at that moment i realized how good the sound is. especially at 3:05. I mean that particular instance may have more to do with the musical score, but yeah.

This is legit one of the most beautiful animations I have ever seen.

5:36 I can’t believe Biboo made a cameo.

We absolutely gotta show some love for the music/sound work in this piece of art, too!! It's truly beautiful both visually AND auditorily
