Special shout-out to BannedLagiacrus on twitter, who's lore-threads are literally the backbone of this series! twitter.com/BannedDino

Man i wish more people versed in biology would talk about MH. Such an interesting topic.

BrachyDios is my favorite Villian of DevilJhoJho's Bizarre Adventure.

What a genuine delight to see that you're still continuing with this series!

The Stories Brachydios training montage is the best thing

I've noticed that most of your monster biologies are on creatures with variants and I love it. They're so deeply interesting to think about.

Slime mold is actually a type of protist rather then a fungi. Slime molds are colonial detrivores that are capable of moving like a swarm ants and are able to reorganize there mass in such a way that the they can feed as efficiently as possible despite not having a nerve system.

"So it will pound until its enemies are destroyed." I see what you did there

This is what we need the monsters in mh are not just boss battles they’re part of the world and have their place in the circle of life If you can’t do more videos about monster hunter like this that would be absolutely amazing

It gives a bit of whiplash seeing how professional and deep you sound here, and seeing how much of a funny and chaotic mess you are in Shonen and chill

Man who has never played a MonHun game: YES FINALLY MY FAVORITE SERIES IS BACK

Hey, am a bio students that specializes in ecology, first off I'd like to say that this video is really good, it takes real life terms and adapt them well to the universe of monster hunter, both goes to show the work put into the game as to replicate a coherent eco-system with esoterical things in them as well as well as the work put into this vid to try and decipher said eco-system, I feel like brachydios is a prime example of symbiosis, while in nature there are many types of interspecific interaction(predation -> +/-, one species feed on another, one gains something, the other loses it, includes parasitism too / competition -> -/-, Two species fight for the same ressource and both gets hurt / etc...) symbioses might be the most interresting while prolly be one of the most ancient! Indeed, the endosymbiosis theory is a theory that tries to explain the presence of mitochondrias, between all the lil compartiments in the cell, only the mitochondria has it's own dna, the theory suggests that the mitochondria was a prokaryote (a bacteria of sorts) that went inside an ancestral cell to form one of the biggest love relationship known in the world haha, basically, the cell itself collects and gives the ressources to the mitochondria and the mitochondria gives energy to the cell, this simple interaction was just the beginning, for then it paved the way to eukaryotes which, in turn, permitted the creation of all complex living organism! It's kinda crazy to imagine that our very existence is dependant on symbiosis! Then we have other examples like the bacterias in our digestive system and all, but really, the theory of the endosymbiosis is clearly the wildest example of it to me, now to go back on other things, it is true that due to stress, the body releases high amounts of noradrenalin which ups bodily functions with little to no regards to the consequences on the long term as long as it helps for survival on the short termes, finally and to end this oh so long monologue, the brachydios's slime of sort could be considered a secondary sexual character, primary sexual characters are just the possesion of male and/or female genitalia while the secondary are all the visible assets an individual can show to prove they are genitically perfect, for example male peacocks are much more colorful than females because they have to show female peacock that they represent genetical perfection, to some degrees we can even put that to humans(this part is very theoritical so no need to take it as entirely true) when we were still quite primitive, male humans had to protect the female and their infant, thus to show power to protect the family, man's secondary sexual character were mainly muscles, body hair can count too in that, anything goes as long as it showed manlyhood and thus strength which was what women saw as genetical perfection, while woman had to deliver babies healthily and feed them, thus why men usually have an attraction towards wide hips and breasts, some of these concepts tend to change with time tho, as society was created and we became all the more connected all the while the dear of predators became less and less of a focus, the standards for men is in evolution dependant on that since to protect its family, men today don't really have to protect them physically anymore but secure their well being with good enough ressources (mainly money, let's be honest) so while thousands of years modelled our brain to find strong powerful bodies attractive, it isn't anymore in a society where intelligence dictates our status as a potential partner, while it changed for men, it didn't for women because the criterias stayed the same, no matter how society evolved (theoretical part over, this was kinda messy but I hope it was understandable) Anyway, I'm not gonna bore anybody much longer than I already did lol, just to say this video is great, and it nailed most of the parts around ecology and biology it was aiming for, and I hope my comically long comment isn't too much of a pain enough of itself lol

I'd love to see one of these on valstrax

i still remember the genuine scare i felt when i was doing my guiding land runs, my first time run of wounded brachy luring me to its own playground in the volcanic region erecting walls for a mano a mano run. i was out of healing items and running out of bullets as well on my beo lbg. the moment brachy reached its lair, it screamed, punched ground violently, i was shit scared from its sheer roar, never felt a good goosebump untill this encounter.

God! i love speculative biology, specially related to monster hunter, and this series is the best i've found so far

I’ve been loving these monster hunter videos

This series is the only thing on KZfaq i can't afford to skip through, great job can't wait for more.

I had been rewatching your monster hunter videos lately and wondered if you'd ever make any more. So glad to see you are! Thanks for making these videos

I am ADDICTED to these videos and I am on my knees begging for one on valstrax/crimson glow valstrax

1:46 thought it was gonna be an overlord reference right there

This is my favorite monster in MHS2. I love its training montage. I love your video. It should in the show Wild Planet. I like that green mold ha ha.

Kreia: "If you are to truly understand then you would need the contrast".

God the final fight against Raging Brachy is so goddamn cool

CANT WAIT FOR MORE

just putting this out there that the thing with the immortal reactor making R.brachydios immortal is nothing but a fan theory perpetuated by ragegaming that actually has no basis within the actual lore and was was never hinted at to be the case.

I love this series

Yesssss... Been waiting for another entry

Wait Brachy has claws?! I never knew that! I just thought its hands were the pounders! That's so cool!

Some times I hear snorts and oinks from time to time when I'm hunting this monster. I have learned that rolling is the key to success!

First time I fought the Raging variant, I couldn't withstand most of the swift, brutal attacks & powerful explosions for long. And it took me days to adapt & overcome my first Raging Brachydios, and I look back on those memories as the one monster I will always respect for being the best of it's kind.

Please more of these

after cornering the raging brachidios you say "its time to end this" and raging brachidios says "i couldn't agree more" and your like "wait what" then the final stage comes

Ah yes, the sexual apex that pounds and pounds and pounds away. Nature's truly beautiful at times

Maybe the next entry in the series could be about the Raths or the Zinogre.

I love this series giving a look into not just the physics but the biology as well.

One of these on Zinogre would be fantastic. It's similar to Brachydios in its use of symbiosis,but it's arguably just as cool, if not more so.

Dude, I thougt this was an old video (because I wasn't subbed for some reason), but I'm here with less than a minute since the release lol

Baby Brachi is the greatest thing I‘ve ever seen

This is incredible , I love when I new one of these gets on my recommended (Hoping for Alatreon or Valstrax)

Ofc the algorithm has kept this from me for two weeks!!!

I have hunted dozens of Brachys (raging too) and only just found out about their little claws…

I never knew the brachy had FINGERS!

god is back thank you best nature documentary

FYI, slime mold isn’t a fungus. It’s an amoeba!

Amazing video! Are you considering doing a vid on fatalis and his shenanigans?

I subscribed bro u make this so damn intristing

baby brachy lookin kinda adorable though

OH. This makes me happy to see

love it! Btw can you do Yian garuga?

I hope you do the khezu at some point, it's so wierd but interesting.

I want to see Legiana in the next Nature of Monster Hunter

you know you have a devestateing/op wepon when you are also threatended by your use of it

(first time seeing this channel) yanno i appreciate this ride you just took me on. I started watching this thinking "Okay calm down dude, this is Monster Hunter i think you're taking it too seriously." only to end on "F-fuck why do i have goosebumps??" I actually really loved this, I felt like I was sitting in a class in a world where Brachy exists. And you were the unhinged, poetic professor who just strikes absolute terror into the hearts of his students. Thank you for making this, I can't wait to see the rest of your work!

It's back bois

I’d forgotten how much I love this series. Thank you for making my day so much better. I look forward to the next episode (er, no rush though. Take your time)

Someone break the tie and make it 801 likes

Cant wait for lagiacrus or yuan garuga

"Land, Sea, and Air. Always bet on the Hammer"

Hell yea love me some nature or MH vids.😁

This puts a smile on our faces

Can I just say that I love how you rrrroll your Rs.

badass, you made another one

My fav monster

These are so underated

I feel like you roll your tongue at every possible opportunity.

The joy I had the moment I realised the playlist went from 5 to 6

Josh (from RGV) will be satisfied. . .

i thing it what its missing in MH is this final phase for all monster where they will not flee and but everything on the line says at 15% life a rage state ++

YES! I've been waiting for another one of these!

I love your monster hunter series, the narration and the editing is great, It should have way more views

Thank you for making another nature of MH video, I hope your enjoying Rise. PS can the next one be Gore Magala please? If so than I can't wait for it!.

Yes, many thanks for making this!

Thanks.

Lovely video, but I don't think Raging brachys are male-only. I think they can be either one, since I didn't find a source saying they're male. My sister has an ongoing joke that it's just an old brachydios who lost its chancla so it got mad

Finally !!!!

This is beautiful. Thank you for another monster documentary, Oceaniz

Many thanks to Oceaniz for more MH content

The nature and biology of my favorite monster in the whole series. This will be good.

Most people watching this with no biology background: I don't understand anything Me with a long history of biology and genetics: now this is some quality content

I just beat this for the first time like 20 minutes ago

I’ll wait for Glavenus……

My favorite monster, thank you for making the video :)

Yay another monster hunter video!!

Great video

YES!

this is my favorite series you have, good on you for doing research you put a lot of effort in this

A new one, nice !

Man i really love this video series! Keep up the great work!

A good monster to do next would be Glavenus!

Hello there fellow hommer brother.

YEEEEES

Tobikadochi please

I thirst for more. Keep the great effort up! And thanks for this awesome series.

Dude I would LOVE to see one about Anjanath or Tobi-Kadachi, better yet Magnamalo

Brachydios has to be one of my favorite monsters. Raging brachy has such a good theme too and the monster in general is such a cool design etc

YES

Nice

Yes! You made a fantastic day into a spectacular day!

I thought he said 2 meters tall and 7 meters long. I was racking my brain on how it was 6'6 and 22 feet long when its atleast 2 or 3 times taller than the character.

It has claws? damn
