New episode coming out on December 7!! And this episode is called .... "Hades and Minthe" 🌱

Hephaestus captures all the pain of being an Artist of any kind "This one is gonna be so cool but..... ITS NOT FINISHED YET"

3:08 Funny reference. For those who don't know this net was used by Hephaestus to catch Aphrodite cheating on him with Ares.

I appreciate that the argument in the beginning wasn’t totally one-sided. It felt like they both legitimately had their feelings hurt, and were lashing out.

The way she flirts with everyone even after just breaking up and eavesdropping is so characteristic of her lol.

Hephaestus is so cute, and I'm so happy to see him with a cane :') I feel like a lot of people forget he's disabled. I use a cane and it makes me feel seen

This is actually the only take on Aphrodite and Hephaestus I ever want from now on

As someone who’s dabbled in Greek mythology, I’m usually more fond of the idea of Aphrodite and Ares being together. After all, Ares was actually pretty tame compared to some of the other gods and Aphrodite’s marriage to Hephaestus wasn’t exactly her idea. *However* I can make an exception in this case. Why? Because these two have adorable chemistry and they spark with passion!

I love how they did Hephaestus’ animation, we looks like he is about to fall any minute due to his leg yet he radiates a feeling of someone who cannot be budged because of his kindness and good nature

I’m the voice of Hephaestus! Thank you so much for your support everyone ❤️ 🔥

Hephaestus here: "Everyone has a talent, Aphrodite" The Real Heaphestus: "Where's is my HOOR wife?!"

This is the level of quality of Disney's classic animation, which the company unfortunately forgot about. It's cool that there are people like you doing this kind of animation. I miss a cartoon of such a visual performance.

You know what makes me sad? That we all know where this is gonna go. We all know how this is gonna end. Yet I hope she really doesn't break Hephaestus heart in this. They seem like a wholesome couple in this.

Relationship in the myth: Aphrodite betrothed to Hephaestus and cheats all the time on him with Ares Relationship in this: Mutual respect, chemistry, and NO forced relationship. Hephaestus in real myth: crippled/deformed, emotionally distant Hephaestus in this: Generally good looking, caring, easy to fall for this show is a beautiful lie, and i like it.

Fun Fact: Ares and Aphrodite have children together such as Phobos (Fear), Deimos (Terror), Harmonia (Harmony), Anteros (Requited Love), in some sources Eros (God of Love aka Cupid), and Adrestia (Revolt)

At least Ares looked remorseful when Aphrodite ran off. And he wasn't wrong about Aphrodite craving attention. The only difference is she is desperate to be loved. And I'm glad that Hephaestus is nice to Aphrodite and tries to help her. If only he could muster the courage to confess his feelings.

Hephaestus is every artist ever- “You know. Not quite finished yet…”

It’s interesting to see this take on their relationship but I’m honestly just happy to see a kind and passionate Hephaestus. Understandably many renditions show him as a tired and unhappy workhorse of a character but I really enjoy the idea that he’s genuinely happy and enthusiastic making things for other people.

Hephaestus and Aphrodite in actual myth: *forced to get married by Zeus so Aphrodite will stop sleeping with every god* Hephaestus and Aphrodite in this: *genuinely nice and respectful to each other* That's a legit nice take on them and very refreshing to see

This reminds me of Ever After High, but waaaaay more up my alley. This is amazing! Great animation skills and talented voice actors. 💖💖

3:00 Hephaestus: “This one’s my favorite!” Aphrodite: *”EèhHehEHÆ”*

I really appreciate how there's clear implications that while both Ares and Aphrodite do/did like each other, they both contributed to the problems of their relationship, rather than just Ares being a one-sided jerk (bc _that_ tends to go hand-in-hand with Aphrodite being shallow as she's only with him for his looks 😒). So, this portrayal is so refreshing and, I think, gives the characters a lot more depth.

I hope this gets picked up by a huge animation studio. It’s on the same level of animation of monster high or even the Tangled series. I like how it’s directed in a sense that it’s young school gods but not school drama focused. It has a little something that makes it refreshing and unique.

Hephaestus is so sweet, it's cute he cheered her up after her break up and showed her around his workshop and gave her that beautiful belt.

Bless hephastus' heart Imagine the goddess of love and beauty comes running into your workshop after getting broken up with like He was so sweet and it was adorable

I think its very telling how Aphrodite has her mascara ruined all throughout, and Hephestus still manages to make her smile. It shows that he sees past her beauty. Nice touch.

I like how he was introduced leaning on a cane. When Hephaestus was born, his mother found him ugly and tossed him off a cliff. When he landed on his feet the impact broke both of his legs and they healed in an irregular way. Sometimes he's depicted with bent or crooked legs, metal legs that serve as prosthetics he made himself, or no legs at all. Also fun fact: his daughters name is Pandora. If the name sounds family. You may also know what she's known for. Opening the box that was made to contain all the evil and wickedness in the world. Hence the phrase: we've opened Pandora's Box.

3:51 bro got friend zoned 💀

HUGE RESPECT for the sceenwritters for The fact that the writing is in actual greek! 💙 Ευχαριστούμε

Ha! Aphrodite catching her foot on the chains was a nice touch. For context, after Aphrodite and Hephaestus ‘married’, Ares and Aphrodite had an affair. Hephaestus wasn’t exactly pleased with that, so when Aphrodite and Ares went to continue their affair, Hephaestus trapped them both in fine chains he had draped around the bedroom and displayed their affair to the whole pantheon. (Apollo and Hermes though it was hilarious).

I love all the little details omg like his invisible net! When Ares said “you always do” when they last spoke, the expression made me go wow! I love this series so much!

what the heck, what is this? This looks so good! It's like Kim Possible and Hercules together! Those two are some of my favorite mediums.

"Everyone has a little something that makes them special.Even if they don't see it"-quoted by Hephaestus in Gods School☆

Easily the most underrated animated series on KZfaq. The quality always blows me away. It’s crazy to know how such a small team can pull off a show better than most on tv right now. Been here since the beginning. Loved seeing this show grow and improve over the years ❤️

This episode is very nice. I like how you included the belt Hephaestus gave Aphrodite, how it relates to the one from mythology that makes anyone fall in love with her. Wonder if she’ll use it to get Ares back or if Hera will borrow it to make Zeus love only her like in the stories. I saw at the end you mentioned a new episode coming out this fall. Can’t wait.

MY HEART CAN'T CANDLE THE CUTENESS OF THIS EPISODE!😭

I love how cute Aphrodite and Hephaestus are!!

I didn't expect Aphrodite and Hephaestus to be such a wholesome couple. I am all here for it, and I cannot wait to see them interact more. Edit: Guys, I know the actual myths can get dark, let me enjoy this pls. .-.

To see a sweeter side of this relationship makes me so happy

Hephaestus in mythos just reminds me of Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame. He isn't handsome nor a charmer but he is caring. This more of my preference anyway. I love it. Sometimes truth isn't enough. Sometimes people deserve to be rewarded for their faith.

Those two are actually so cute together!! Thanks for brightening my day with Greek Mythology man!

Aphrodite almost tripping over the net is so funny if you know the original mythology behind it XD

I wished the real myth was like this This is such nice story in comparison The animation and voice acting is great❤

Why isn’t this on Netflix? My daughter would love this!

I love that in this interpretation Aphrodite, the goddess known for her beauty becomes kind of a muse for the artist Hephaestus. This was my first vid from you and now I'm hooked. I know it's about all of the gods, but honestly I could watch a whole show of just the two of them figuring out how to have a healthy and stable relationship, kinda like Love After World Domination. ♡

i can't believe i haven't seen this before. it feels like Greek mythology meets ever aft high it's so perfect the animators and voice actors did such a good job and the writing is actually acurate to mythology and isn't cringy

THIS is WAAAY better than the actual relationship! I’m hooked on this instantly. I want this version of the married pair together, forever. Screw Ares! 😍💗🔥✨ Edit: I just noticed the background in the end! YEEES! 🥹🥰

This is so good! Beautifully animated, with gorgeous color schemes and unique, adorable designs for the characters. I absolutely adore this

I loved how sad Ares looked and sounds. this story always has such tension, and usually, we see Ares presented as the 'better man, but just there for the physical, and Hephaestus being the well-intentioned but unattractive one. You've really crafted an Ares that makes me feel for his side of this. (Still team Heph though.)

This is so nice compared to the actual relationship. Instead of their relationship being a joke to the gods (as shown in the Odyssey) they seem genuinely compatible. Hephaestus is shown to actually be tentative towards Aphrodite instead of tricking her into marrying him. Aphrodite is shown as celebrating Hephaestus’ talent instead of looking down on him for his disability. It’s refreshing; a sensitive nerd and a sensitive popular girl 🥰

I feel so nostalgic finding this channel again, I discovered this freshman year and now I’ve graduated. So glad to see new eps still being uploaded.😊

4:16 you can hear the pain in his voice 😭

I said this before, but I am really happy with the fact that they portrayed Aphrodite and Hephaestus as a loving couple here. The original legend shows that she considered him ugly and inferior (Just like many other gods), hating the fact that she had to marry him by force. And when Hephaestus made "the net" to catch Ares and Aphrodite committing adultery, it was kind of like he was a "resentful and vindictive" god because he exposed them to the rest of the gods since she cheated on him, or at least I felt it that way. Thanks for doing another version of this story, I think that Aphrodite being with Hephaestus by choice would have been a sign of how love is not determined by someone's looks, and even "the ugliest" person can make the prettiest feel the most beautiful in the world. P.D: I would love to "audition" to be the voice of a god, is there a way to do it? :D Merci Beaucoup!

Hephaestus is an evergreen stereotype of the kind boy that none cares of, except when they need support😢

I loveeee you made Hephaestus literally so cuteee he deserved so much better cuz I feel like he was probably so kind hearted 🫶🏿

3:20 Aphrodite feels attracted to the Cestus because she's made of sea foam too

2:34 ¡I UNDERSTOOD THAT REFERENCE!

“It’s made of sea foam” STOP DON’T REMIND ME ABOUT THE THINGS MADE OF SEA FOAM🙅‍♀️😭

proceeds to cheat on the nice guy relentlessly until he asks his dad for a literal refund

I love this video!!! The hint of Achilles and the net where Aphrodite and Ares got stuck under is just so amazing 💕❤️‍🔥💕. Just more reminds me more of how great Greek mythology is and how good your videos are.

i’m crying during the aphrodite hephaestus bonding moments it’s not even romantic, it’s just so. so. sweet.

When you realise they are all in the same family...

I hope they keep updating the episodes every week😢cause I love it❤

Im so in love with the visual/artistic look of that series 😭

I really love your versión of Aphrodite, She is so cute and lovely, Hephaestus is so loyal

This was adorable, the animation is gorgeous! I will totally be watching all of these immediately

I love this! Aphrodite is such a sweetie, i want more of her and Hephaestus!

Whoever is behind this show. PROPS TO ALL OF YOU IN THE TEAM. The animation is smooth. Aphrodite’s hair is literally so beautiful, and both Hephaestus and Ares are sooo handsome and charming, and have beautiful voices. First time looking at one of the episodes from this lil web show. I find it very charming

I loved!!!! I totally loved it, from the beginning to the end. I never imagined loving hephaestus, but this one is so adorable and charming. The way he tries to make Aphrodite feel better is so beautiful 😍😍. And I don't want to stop mentioning all the details from the net... everything 😍love it 😍. Like you, Aphrodite was always my favorite Goddess, this chapter was incredible for you. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽🇲🇽

Lol I love learning more about Greek mythology through the comment section

I’m just gonna say it, this is beautiful! you can hear how much the voice actors loved their role, this is so good!

This Haepheestus looks so nice and kind and cute 🥺

oh my god(s) just realized this isn't an animated serie that airs on TV but an actual exclusive youtube content ! the artwork is so clean, well done, can't wait for the next part !!

We need a whole ass movie with this animation

You guys have come so far since the beginning. I’m so impressed with the direction, the animation, voice acting. Great work ❤

I actually really like this, because they didn't make Aphrodite act like a very selfish and terrible person. She is actually a really kind and gentle goddess, and she is very caring and loving. I loved to see her bonds with the other Olympians.

I would actually really like to see more of these two in the future. I'm not familiar with the romances of the Greek gods and goddesses except Hades and Persephone but I'd like to see the full love story of these two characters

Stop these two have my whole heart 😭😭

He made a bronze giant with a weakness in the ankle. Either it’s Talos, the giant owned by Minos, or it’s a statue of Achilles.

There is a lot to love about this. And I mean a lot. One is that both Ares and Aphrodite contribute to why their relationship doesn't work here. Maybe at one point they did, and they just drifted until they were only ever getting together because they were used to it, if Ares comment about how she would get bored of the others and come back to him eventually like always and how he isn't even smug, just resigned to it. Heck, maybe it never was working and they just reached the point where it's impossible to ignore. Another is that Aphrodite doesn't go into the workshop intentionally. She just kept going until she found somewhere that felt like a safe place to cry, not even realizing what it was. Maybe it isn't intentional, but it feels like foreshadowing for the fact that soon Hephaestus will represent someone she feels safe and comfortable with. Another is that Hephaestus isn't treated as just a smith, but an artist in his craft. I feel like he doesn't get enough credit in that regard in most depictions these days. Of course, the biggest thing is how Aphrodite and Hephaestus interact. In mythology their relationship isn't even on the rocks, it's buried under them. Here we see him give her a tour, showing his work to her, and her genuinely enjoying herself. She's actually interested and listening, and not reluctant about it at any point, contradicting Ares' claim about her being self-absorbed. Finally, the belt. When Aphrodite is feeling upset once more over Ares (and not even jealous or mad, just heartbroken), she is cheered up once more by Hephaestus, who not only of course made the belt for her, and took her recommendation about the pearls, but managed to get it to her without her realizing it for no reason other than it always being meant as a gift and hoping to make her happy. And it does, not just due to the physical gift, but the kindness in it. I do hope that Aphrodite and Ares both realize that what they have isn't good and that she gets with Hephaestus. They are now an OTP for me in this series.

Not sure how this came up in my recommended, but I'm pretty impressed. Visuals are cute, the audio is clean, and the writing is very well-researched in and surprisingly respectful of the original mythology. Very impressive for an indie project.

The fact the names are written in greek and correctly is a much appreciated detail. Good job!

my only critisim would be to add more detail to the clothing n stuff. fashion that is unique to each character with elements of their personality. other than that i absolutley love it.

1 M views!! THANK YOU so much for your support! This gives me the possibility to produce more episodes and keep GodsSchool alive 🙏 Working on this one was AWESOME, I felt so much less pressure than for the previous episodes and I'm so glad you like it! In the next one, you'll see Hades ... And some other characters... 😏Stay tuned 💜 Gaylord

She managed to find a surface to cry on from a mile away

For the first time in MY youtube history... Im SO glad THIS was on my timeline. 💗👍🏾

This will forever be my favorite episode

So Aphrodite just randomly went into Hephaestus’s workshop to cry? 😂😂

It's a beautiful series! I love how you transformed the gods and referenced some myths with small details. And the fact that it feels a bit like the myths at the same time it feels new and refreshing, adapted to a high school type of story is also very interesting and fun. I liked how you wrote the relationships here, Ares and Aphrodite have this tone that feels like a lot of relationships between teenagers, both parts may like each other a lot, but some times they hurt each other, which can make a relationship fail. Hephaestus and Aphrodite is also interesting, because it's clear he likes her, and they feel sweet and cute, and I'm just a sucker for that, but knowing the myths, I don't know were this is going and I'm a bit insecure. I also love the characters on their own. Aphrodite feels sweet, gentle and dreamy, but also a bit jealous, insecure and confused at times, which is amazing because it's EXTREMELY easy to make her either this angel who is extremely generous and sweet or this selfish, manipulative godess who cares only about beauty and herself, when in reality, she's very human, being flawed and doing both good and bad things. I can say the same for Ares, his cockiness, meanness and anger issues aren't healthy, but he feels hurt when he's insulted, has fear and want's to be liked. Hephaestus is the only one till now that we had seen mostly the sweetest, most caring and cute side, but the "it's not finished yet." for most of his works is very relatable for artists, and it's very funny too, he is creative and loves what he does, but is a bit insecure about his talent. I'm not sure if this is still the case, but if you're still working alone animating the series, I hope you can contract a team of artists soon. Keep going because it's a very amazing show💕.

I love the detail of adding greek characters!! The animation is obviously perfect and the voice acting soothing and fitting!

This is absolutely stunning, adorable and... And... Omg AMAZING 😭😭🥺🥺 The beautiful art style, animation, voice, writing... I love this 🥺💖

hephaestus is so adorable!! who else is a sucker for soft boys 😃👍

this gives me Ever After High vibes in terms of quality with the animation. the lighting, the movements, the slight bounce in their hair - it's so crisp and clean and on point and professional. also, did you model Hephaestus off of Disney's Hercules? because with the red hair, bronze clothing and adorkable nature, I'm seeing some parallels. great job, you should be very very proud.

Gotta love how’s she’s literally like the lust god and she’s acting like this fr XD

Okay but the fact that the voice of Pomni from the amazing digital circus also voiced Aphrodite is honestly one of the biggest plot twists I’ve ever seen 😮

“I Call It ‘The Cestus’, This Ain’t NO ‘Ordinary Belt’.” - Hemphaetus & That’s How The FIRST Greek-Like Cupid Artifact Was Created!

So many mythological references in his workshop, even the net he would use to trap Aphrodite and Ares. Interesting divergence in the relationship, one many modern viewers have longed to see, the kind of odd couple relationship that people love.

I love this dynamic. Anytime Aphrodite gets more than the jealous goddess part I love it

Did anyone else read the Goddess Girls books growing up? Because I loved them and this reminds me of them so much 😭❤️

I just realized something, the title of this show goes “God’s School: the Olympian Gods.” It’s GOD’S school, it’s not specific to any mythology until the subtext. That feels that it kind of hints to that there’s other schools around the world consisting of other gods like the norse gods, Egyptian gods and so on. Wouldn’t it be funny if there was an episode where the Greek and Egyptian gods battled it out?
