When will Greek rulers realize that entrusting shepherds to dispose of infants that herald tragedy for their homes doesn’t end well?

Love that this Achilles is drawn after the likeness of Brad Pitt's Achilles, he truly fit the character well

As Greek myself and a person that studies Homer I find it very accurate.

This looks amazing , the narration and art were top notch. Can't wait for season two.

Continue on with the rest of this famous classic Greek saga. Hope you do The Odyssey one day too. The way do this is very informative with nice comic art.

What you create is a masterclass of animation. Thank you for the amazing content that you make. Please keep making such quality contents. This is stunningly beautiful!

Words are not enough how beautiful the way you tell the most ancient epic story. I really am thankful to you for this video. I've read Homer's "Iliad" but not the backstories of characters. Watching this video makes me excited to read more about the backstories. Hats off, dear.

We should do two alternate stories: what if Paris chose Athena or Hera?

This is what makes this channel ammazing, i love the way the art is, and also when a series is mashed into one video, plus i cant waitfor season 2 of this series

I watched this video from beginning till the end. I felt like it finished in 5 minutes. It was so good. Wow. So inspiring. Please do a sequel soon. I can't wait.

This is a lot of information that I've never heard and I'm very grateful that you guys have put this together. Not gonna lie, as a father of a girl, the end actually moved me to tears.

I'm looking forward to season 2. I hope you work on the aftermath of the Trojan war too. (AKA the Odyssey, The Aeneid and the fates of the other Greek kings who either drowned or were banished or murdered)

I can’t look at Paris without picturing Anakin Skywalker... XD

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this accurate, beautiful telling of our precious sagas. As a Greek teacher I'm very grateful to see this, well done my friend!

Cassandra was a virtuous lady... She didn't want to be some cast off sidepiece... She was most likely saving herself for a loving, respectful, respectable marriage... She didn't cause the Trojan War. The goddess of discord did when she threw the 🍎 of Discord amongst Hera, Athena, & Aphrodite... Also Paris did with his fickle judgment & his overwhelming lust for Helen of Sparta (later known as Helen of Troy)... Helen played a role as well when she willingly engaged in an extramarital affair with Paris then accompanied him to Troy. Cassandra was upright & innocent. I actually admire her...

Can’t wait for the next one. Loving the comic illustrations that follow this timeless tale.

Amazing! I already knew these stories but the art and your narration brought it to life! Glorious

Wow thanks! The Trojan War is the most epic thing ever written!

Finally!!! I've been waiting for so long, we need the 2nd season FAST

These videos are rather relaxing. Coming from someone who finds it extremely difficult to relax/concentrate, that's saying something. Thank you! Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much for covering the trojan war!!!!

In some versions of the myth Iphigenia was rescued by Artemis and served as the goddess’ priestess for life….hence the plays Iphigenia in Taurus and Iphigenia In Aulis.

Thank you for sharing this with us 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

A snake licked my ear once and now I can see into the future! Haha What a story Mary!

This was epic! Really great narration and great artworks! :)

Yes I love a full series in one video this just made my day

EPIC!!! Thank you for sharing this.

The battle of Troy and the battle of Mahabharata are the greatest battles I've ever heard of.

The art, the music, the narration ❤❤

I really enjoyed the video. The art and narration go hand in hand.

Wow, this was very interesting to watch! Loved it

Thank you for making this amazing video! 😍💗👍🏼 My weekend is now complete 💯✅ Please do Jason and the quest for the Golden Fleece and all the other epic adventures of Greek heroes ☺️ Your work in all your videos in this channel has always been top notch! Love from Philippines 💜🇵🇭

This is absolutely fantastic

I really enjoyed your "Trojan War Saga". Though many KZfaqrs have covered this incredible story but none could do it the way you have done it. Deeply admire you for this.

Amazing stories thank you so much for your art and dedication!

Please do a full season of Hercules and his 12 Labours, also the Origin of Memnon. Your work, animations and narrations are splendid.💯👌🏽

Love this rendition!

The music goes so well with this!

I enjoy your videos and love seeing how your channel has grown. It keeps me motivated to keep working on my own. Keep the great content coming!

This was sooo interesting and emotional i am just waiting for the next part of the story. This was sooo cool

Love the art, narration and music.

thank you for this great video

amazing work !!

LOVE IT waiting for the next part 🔥

This is such great story telling

The ending moved me to tears.

Love this! So knowledgable and I love the animation I can’t wait for season two!!!

Wonderful presentation and narration. Thank you!

I love your work. Thank you. I hope if I refer to things you show it is ok??? I studied most texts and Velikovsky...These events were real IMO and on a scale that the human mind cannot handle. I have lots on my YT Channel about the actual RECORDED history in tablets and Papyrus and glyphs....most very accurate.

Such a great story I loev it your the ebst keep up the awosme work

It's a great videos. I learned a lot. I really love listening "Greek Mythology". :)

Great video!! Wanna see season2 !!

Love this guys keep it up

Thank you so very much. I'm writing a play based on the works of Geoffrey Chaucer's Troilus and Criseyda. But theres a lot of information missing (and some misinformation too) and the research done from the Iliad to il filostrato creates even more confusion. This aids me fill some gaps and information that I could not found. The history of how things ended like this is of immense importance. Also Troilus is mentioned only once in the Iliad and that's after he is dead. I'm looking forward to the second part. Cheers.

❤ all your video's mate.

Whoever did the voice acting for Hera, Athena and Aphrodite nailed it. Thanks for this awesome video.

This was awesome!

Can't wait for season 2. After that pls make a video on Odyssey too.

This is fantastic!

Tbh I can't wait for season 2 like the storyline is so incredible and interesting 💖🤘

This is amazing. Thank you so much!

This brought me to tears 😢

More of this pls love watching ypur video

thank you! you made my boring lessons into something excited!

Can't wait for Season 2

I read the song of Achilles and i cried for days

I also love the little easter eggs paying homage to the 2004 movie Troy. If you pay attention, the armor, hair, accessories and appearances look similar to the characters from the movie. Albeit far more accurate to the source material.

Fabulous explanation

This was amazing

This is a really good channel.

If there is a lesson to learn from Prophecy in Ancient Greek Tales is that the harder you try to prevent them from happening, the more likely they are to come to pass.

I’m still trying to figure out why Aphrodite he would promise him the hand of an already married woman and then makes her son waste his love arrows on a happily married wife and mother.

I remember my Dad's friend from work who was Greek we would go over to their house have the delicious food with the most amazing scents I have a wonderful memory of. My Dad had gone to Bible University and was still at that time going through the different ways of understanding the nuances in the written WORD. I remember telling my Dad how a person on You Tube talked about the myths being as real as the ones we tell now. And he agreed saying that the people we went over to really be blessed by the Grecian food and friends had as much told Dad. He knew that to them it was so, there would be no argument.

Achilles story reads like a hilarious D&D campaign. Roll for deception!

Thanks!

This is a masterpiece...

Great art!

This music is brilliant!

How many seasons are you going to do? It would be great if you could do a season for every year of the war, and then of Odyssey. And I know for those if us who love Rome the Aeneid. I know it takes awhile for the drawings and scripts to be made but I can say I will watch for any new chapters that you put out.

the music choices are great

At 58 i still enjoy these fantastical stories of the Greeks and there God's.

Thanks

You have done a very good job. It would be interesting to think of what myths might connote or symbolise so beautifully. Paris's choice may have to do with the choices of kings and princes at that time: to rule wisely, to rule by conquering other lands for resources and trade or to rule by marauding and plundering other places for treasure and women. The apple symbolises knowledge and deciding as in the bible. Abducting women, it seems, was a prime target of marauders. Actually, Illiad begins with the wrath of Achilles, when he had to give up Briseis - the woman he abducted, to Agamemnon, who had to return Chryseis - the woman he abducted to her father (a priest of Apollo) in order abate the wrath of Apollo.

Got interested in learning about this while reading "The song of Achilles" because I couldn't understand many of the references. Seems like the interpretation of the relationship between Patroclus & Achilles is different here. Well, either way, a very interesting story. Mythologies tend to have thousands of different interpretations & it's fun to learn about all the different ones.

Great!

Thanks, I enjoyed the video. A lot more to it than I knew.

I seriously would love to know where to find the music you use for these videos. They're really good.

More wisdom in these ancient Greek mythological word-of-mouth tales than modern folks realize. Just consider the names and lives of the two brothers named Prometheus ("Foresight") and Epimetheus ("Hindsight") for example. Epimetheus married Pandora, and, regretfully, we all know how that ended.

This was so much better than the Movie "Troy" with Brad Pitt, Orlando Bloom and Eric Bana as Achilles, Paris and Hector respectively. Brad Pitt's Achilles and Eric Bana's Hector was nicely portrayed but I never liked Orlando Bloom's version of Paris. In the movie Troy, Paris was too wimpy and always had his older brother Hector get him out of trouble and the portrayal of Helen made it look like she was a good for nothing adultress and didn't explain how she really fell in love with Paris. Actually the movie had a lot of inaccuracies and although entertaining I never felt like it lived up to the real book from Homer or the Illiad until your version here. Thank you for this more accurate version of the Epic Tale for others to learn and enjoy!

May I suggest everyone to read "The Song of Achilles" by madeline miller?

Odysseus, Achilles, and Ifogenia were the real MVPs here….

That was cool 👌

Very nice art

Put the complete story We are glad to see another Greek epic

great vid

I always found it odd that Athena would get caught up in a dispute like this. It felt very out of character, and beneath her. Aphrodite & Hera makes sense, but Athena.... ehhh...

really awesome work guys!

Perfeito brasil......
