STAY UNTIL AFTER THE END CARD FOR SOMETHING FUNNY HEHE! ~ Check out the full length commentaries of these two episodes on my Patreon Page :) www.patreon.com/angelinakim

A classic telling of "Who is the leader of Vox Machina?", from Taliesin (Percy), is answered "Vox Machina doesn't have a leader, unless Vex is within earshot. Then, it's Vex"

Fun holy water story: I once played in a Curse of Strahd campaign. We were fighting a vampire spawn and spilled our holy water. The dm allowed me to take off my shirt and soak up the holy water. I then proceeded to whip him to death with my wet shirt, locker room style. I highly recommend everyone play dnd.

The little "if you know you know" pointing to the Vex stand-in was brilliant on the editor's part

"Why is he so fabulous" I believe the words you are looking for is Glorious!!! 😁

"If you know you know" -- Rees being the real MVP on that edit, though 😁

Rees killed me with the edits, the faded “EMO-TIO-NAL DAAMAGE” over the little girl got me howling with laughter 😂😂

To answer your question at about 13:40 there's about 12 good guy deities known collectively as the Prime Deities and 8 bad guy deities known as the Betrayer Gods. The Dawnfather and Everlight obviously being among the former.

Everything about the fortune cookies in this episode was perfect. Launching the first one into orbit, the fact it had no fortune, and then the second one being THAT of all things. Amazing.

The smoke?... His weapon burns black powder... maybe that's what you saw...

So many references this time around. So the "strangest kills" are actually encounters the party had in the game that this series is an adaptation of. Since those arcs were cut for time here, it was a way of referencing them since those stories likely aren't getting put in. Vax, Keyleth, and Grog's all came from the arc right before the Briarwood Arc began in the game, the "Underdark/Vasselheim" arc as that was the first two dozen episodes of the game when they started streaming, since they picked up mid-adventure from their home game. Vax's kill was a devil creature called a Rakshasa that is effectively a tiger man (in the game they have distinctive backwards-facing hands, couldn't do that here for copyright issues). His name is Hotis and the thing about his race is that if you kill them, they respawn in the nine hells and reform before swearing eternal vengeance against the ones who killed them. Vax had gotten the kill against Hotis in the previous arc and he becomes a recurring villain the party has to deal with the rest of the game. Keyleth's and Grog's were from the Underdark where the party was travelling in an underground tunnel complex under a dwarven city to rescue Lady Kima (the gnomish warrior on the Council that we saw in previous episodes) as a favor to Allura, also on the council. Grog's kill (moved to above ground here to visually be different from Keyleths, in the game they were in roughly the same location) was a Bulette, a dangerous creature that was attacking the dwarven city. Trinket's armor is actually made of the scales harvested from the bulette after that battle since it had a very tough armored hide. Keyleth's kill was a Duregar, essentially a dark dwarf (think of how the Drow/Dark Elves are compared to regular/High Elves, same thing but with the Dwarves) that was part of a raiding party that attacked the group near a lava flow. Keyleth knocked one into the lava and did pull the whole "go to sleep, go to sleep" thing with him although the game's version was even more brutal since she tried using her wind powers to push him under but wound up cooling the lava back into rock and leaving him trapped in it.

Fun fact about the door scene in the live stream. It took three spells and Scanlan took damage before they could get it open.

"Ever Light" and "Dawn Father" are nicknames. They cannot use the real names of the gods and spells because they didn't get the rights for D&D stuff.

19:13 the dagger teleports. His belt is a magic item that causes the effect....not the snake belt, his other belt.

Man, I remember watching the game live when they got to the Sun Tree. It was just as shocking back then as it was now. Though they had Trinket with them in the game and they also had a bear hanging from the tree as well.

I love when reactors have editors that are more familiar with the content and put in little bits of commentary. It's a fun added bonus for the viewers.

i remember the deafening silence when the party saw the tree and the hanged party in their original game. They really gave homage to that scene the way they did that episode ending with no end credit music, just the creaking of the ropes.

I think Scanlon may have broken Ange 😆 I love Grog and Pikes friendship so much though! Can’t wait for see you react to the rest of the show Ange

As a critter watching this I saw the people being summoned by the Briarwoods and when Silas said something about getting them into their costumes I was hit with the sudden "oh no"

19:00 fun fact- in 5th edition D&D teleportation magic falls under conjuration magic so technically, he did, in fact, conjure it back to his hand

I see what the editor did at 11:47

Laudna cameo really hit me when she explained her backstory.

Angelina: Oh my god, I can see why this is rated R, I want to burn my eyes out. also Angeline: They killed those poor innocent people and didn't even eat them? What a waste!

i love that your editor is caught up on campaign 3!! HAHAHAHA

17:43 it’s actually fairly easy to rip off a human ear (Archie here is a dwarf so he may have tougher ears) it only takes about 10 lbs of torque.

When the fortune cookie had nothing in it, your reaction absolutely sent me into the stratosphere. lol.

11:45 "if you know, you know" Amazing

YAAAAAS!! Loving the reaction! I'm glad I discovered your channel because of TLOVM!!

Lmaoooo, the "if you know u know" text is so good

You basically described why I love Druids, they’re so versatile. They can tank, support, utility, control. Literally love

It's like some kind of philosophical dilemma when you get a fortune cookie with no fortune in it.

11:47 rise and shine laudna...

11:47 I know :,)

OMG I love this, also the editing is A+ amazing I love it. Cannot wait for you to review the rest of the episodes

You're not kidding about Keyleth probably being the most versatile on the team. I'm playing a druid (same D&D class as Kiki) in our game right now and the sheer variety of spells is pretty bonkers.

Love Scanlan telling about the wierdest kill he ever had, and its that sex-scene with her turning into a monster - and Scanlan saying "I still finished...!" gets me every time..! LMAO

I love the editing on these

23:51 that face lol! also rip for not getting anything from your first fortune cookie, not sure which one is better though :D great episodes, I think that might fit your style a bit better especially if you say you want to do more long form content.

Another great reaction!! Loved The Sun Tree moment... man the reaction we all had to that on stream... GOSH they portrayed it so well!!

Yay!!!! Thank you so much 🙏!!! Much needed today with the crazy stuff I’ve had going on these last days. Thanks for the breath of air in todays hard times 😋

I love that you call No Mercy Percy "scary Percy," it's adorable

Ah, the Sun Tree moment when I really understood Percy`s feelings toward Briarwoods. This moment was awful enough in the campain and they made it WORSE. I enjoy your reactions, thank you, so sweet and genuine feelings! I love that you liked Yennen :333 Fortune cookie edit was amazing, huge huge respect to the editor!

3:20 And Sylas not having a reflection in the hallway.

2:35 "Why do they need his help again?" It was easy to miss because the camera was focused on Pike being sad, which is what you were commenting on at the time, but last episode as they walked away from the keep the convo went: Scanlan- We should probably pick up some supplies huh? Vax- I can make a run to Gilmore's Vex- Not without me to negotiate. It was easy to miss, don't worry about jerks lecturing on your upload schedule. Clearly you're doing very well, and people who want to watch more Vox Machina reactions are perfectly capable of looking them up without the help of the aLgORitHiM, its good for us critters and for the longevity of the show to have content coming for a while after the short month of airtime 😁

11:46 haha..i know

Ange is gonna love the next 3 episodes. ESPECIALLY episode 9. 😅 Also your reactions are too adorable I can't. 😆

Two episodes are better than one

the iykyk at 11:47 i-

#ANGELINA, you're so sweet. Thanks so much for uploading this awesome reaction video. I love your content because it's so amazing, and I really enjoy watching you react to different shows.

I love that he's recalled his dagger in every episode so far. but it wasnt noticed until 6 episodes in.

Watching the campaign, the moment when Matt revealed the Sun Tree you see at the end of episode 5 it took the whole story arc to a different, much darker crazy level. Honestly up to that point we were watching a fun dysfunctional group have a comedic action adventure... And all of a sudden Matt drops that scene and you realize there are legitimate horror villains in the game. And your internal monologue quietly goes, "Oh holy fuck". It's then that you realize Matthew Mercer is a voice acting, story telling genius who is there to bring out the best in his friends, and he's an absolute master.

This was so good :D

Fun factoid: The voice actor for Captain Stonefell is the same actor for Reinhardt in Overwatch.

OMG Angelina, you are gonna LOVE how this show keeps going, and the finale and transition to season 2, WOW!

11:47 that if you know, you know part... still can't erase that discovery :(((

The teleporting dagger thing is due to Vax's belt of returning. As you've probably noticed the running joke that they have issues with doors. That is because in the campaign they had horrible rolls when trying to unlock doors and caused alot of funny moments that carried on.

I really recommend watching the sun tree reveal from the campaign! The slow reveal gave me chills.

I’m anxious to watch his episode/s!

If it's any consolation. There are no more Scanlan bedroom scenes this season.

thank you for telling us you're watching C3 of CR whoever does the editing 😂

She yeeted the fortune right out of the cookie lol

I can't wait for the next episode It's easily my favorite

Oh Ange, you sweet summer child... Percy is only getting warmed up.

Don't see it in the comments, so I'll point out that the reason Pike left the party was because during the D&D game this is based on, Ashley Johnson had to head to New York to film Blindspot, so wasn't available most of the time. We actually didn't see anything she did away from the party until this show, they expanded on the story for that part.

Great reaction!

Are you glad you are doing two because could you imagine ending on the tree scene and waiting a week?

I feel like that fortune cookie was directed at Percy lmfaooooo

Do you do your own editing or do you have an editor? Either way, the editing with the words on screen and stuff is hilarious haha

Lol whoever the editor is knows what's up ☝

LMAO you launched that cookie so hard you evaporated the fortune!!!!!

“How many gods are there?” Me: about 20

Scanlin deserves his own rating.

I’m about to binge your whole vox machina playlist but like are we getting a season 2 reaction?

Scan’s the man!! Nothing to be ashamed about. 😂

More VM! Yesssssssssssss!

Gotta love, No Mercy Percy!!

Loved the part where Vax summoned back his dagger, but only because I forgot he had one like that.

"How many deities are there?" Uhhh, at *this* point in time of the series, there are 20. Twelve are known as the Prime Deities (The Good and Neutral aligned ones). The Dawnfather and the Everlight are considered Prime Deities. The other Eight are known as the Betrayer Gods (Evil aligned).

Looking forward to your reactions to the rest of the episodes. AKA Ange doing her Ange thing. 😉

love someone enough to give them the last De Rolo 😁

For Vax, the description you're looking for is "dark, angsty and svelte."

Is the intro new? I don’t remember it from before but it’s cute!

It was a bulette a land shark.

In the main lore, 21 gods split between 12 Prime Deities and 9 Betrayer Gods, with a whole bunch of lesser deities or lesser idols.

This video is also missing from your playlist, just thought you should know. I love your reactions to this series and hope you do season 2

Wow. That behemoth stalking around is remarkably like a dream I had, just last night. I'd been lately bingeing Gravity Falls reactions, and dreamt there was a certain forest glade with a sign posted saying "No Fun!" and it turned out that it was a warning against giants who became enraged at sounds of laughter & enjoyment...We narrowly escaped one, but some little jerk went back, and started jumping rope or something, and ended up summoning one that was kaiju-sized. We were all scrambling to try and find someplace in a city that offered protection, or at least concealment.

20 years ago I was in a Chinese restaurant with a couple of friends. We thought we'd get something to eat before going to the theater to see Kung Fu Hustle. We finished our meal, and the server brought over the bill and some fortune cookies. Buddy 1 opens his cookie, reads it. "yada yada yada, in bed." Buddy 2 opens his cookie, reads the fortune. "Blah blah blah, in bed." I open my cookie... empty. One second goes by as a stare at blankly at my fortuneless hands. Two seconds... Three. Buddy 2 points at my and very loudly exclaims "You are nothing in bed!" To this day, at 50 years old, I am still nervous about opening fortune cookies and a visibly relieved when they contain a fortune.

I wish I knew how this video ended, but alas I was murdered by that fortune cookie edit

You should watch the live play of the hanging tree.

5:19 - Is it the Briarwoods? Why're they so _shady,_ shady? Because direct sunlight would kill Sylas. 😁

Ange Do your Ange thing!

EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!

5:50 - 6:00 is one hell of a reaction rollercoaster :D

"beter be worth it" reality rangers have very limited spell slots so every spell counts doing that spell on her arrow most likely was a large percentage of her spell slots

the flirting between vax and gilmore and vax and Keyleth gets even funnyer when you are aware that the voice actors Keyleth and Gilmore, in the game lifestream, where they all look echother in the eyes while doing that, are a married couple and everyone is just totaly fine with Vaxses actor hitting on them in the game. vaxes actor is also married, though to no one at the table. he does flirt like hell with scanlans actor, even if that had not yet factored into any of their character dynamics. Vexes actor literaly mouthed "I love you" at scanlans compleatly beside the game . . . . . the streams are absolutly worth watching for all the adorable interactions between the whole cast that happen parallel to the game as them comforting eachother or falling over eachother laughing . . . .

Thank you! Scan-man can be a little too much, yeah :D

No mercy Percy 🖤💯

I came here for the Vox Machina episodes. But I stayed for the Star Wars. I think I need to check out more when I get time. 👍🏼🔥🔥🔥
