Hannibal applied the art of seduction perfectly. He isolated him. Show him that his life is not real. And he must be with him. Portraying the devil perfectly

"I let you know me.. See me.." Greatest. Monologue. Ever Written.

God, it's been 10 years and these two still kill me.

"Bryan Fuller describes Hannibal and Will’s relationship as being viable. If you imagine that Hannibal is the greatest chess player on earth, he can beat everyone hands down and with no effort whatsoever. Imagine if you’d spent 30 years being that person with the belief that you’ll always be alone, and simply amusing yourself by coming up with ever more intricate and out there ways to beat everyone at chess (murdering people and eating them.) Then all of sudden you meet someone who can play the game just as well as you can (season 1 Will); who might even beat you (season 2 Will) and who would give you a reason to give up the game to take on the rest of the world together (season 3 Will.) Hannibal never desires to kill Will (otherwise he’d be dead) because Will intrigues him so much and he doesn’t want to lose that. Will desires to kill Hannibal on a number of occasions, at the end of Season 1 in the Hobbs kitchen, in the middle of Season 2 when he sends Matt to kill Hannibal, in the middle of Season 3 when he attempts to stab Hannibal at the Uffizi. To put it simply, they get over this. They don’t exist in a permanent state of desiring to kill each other, it fluctuates, and really it’s not the most important thing about their relationship (unbelievably!) With regards to why people ship it, their relationship is powerful, interesting, unusual, intricate, well written, and performed, the actors are attractive, complement each other and their conversation is natural to write. Also in the show, it is acknowledged that there is a love between them, and I believe as the show continues, it will become more overt. It’s not for everyone, in the same way that Hannibal isn’t for everyone for one reason or another. But Hannibal and Will quench the shaking ache of loneliness in each other, and that resonates with a lot of people. I hope I’ve managed to explain why they’re drawn to each other in the way that they are. You don’t have to ship it though! Enjoy the elements of the show you enjoy. As a fannibal, you aren’t expected to enjoy Hannigram so I wouldn’t worry about that".

"Because he was my friend", that quote makes a harder impact if you watch the deleted scene when Hannibal visits Will in prison asking him if he was lying when he asked for his help ending with Will telling him he will always be his friend.

It is 2019 and i still want a season 4, 5, 6 etc

This is your design. And... it’s beautiful.

why do masterpieces like this get cancelled, but mediocre (the Walking Dead) or declining shows (TBBT or GOT) simply keep on going? why can't we have nice things?

" Do you feel alive, Will? I feel like I'm fading."

I've decided after viewing this video thousands of times that this is a miniature master-piece. It is a compilation that succinctly condenses the essence of the story of Will and Hannibal down to its foundational components: the story seems to be hopeless love, and the cycles of rejection and reconciliation. It is so fantastic because it fits the narrative of every obsessive romantic, or every unrequited lover, it is almost compulsive in the way it draws out a sort of depressive monomania that mirrors both the extreme heat and callous cold of feelings in impossible relationships. By this I mean the contrast of seething hatred, with sincere assertions that reveal a confused sense of loyalty, such as Will's statement that Hannibal was his 'friend'. The music too seamlessly synchronises to the ebbs and flows of feeling, revealing an underlying sadness that is strangely empowering. Anyway, excellent work.

This is why I love this fandom! Not only are we very polite, since we eat the rude, but everyone here is so devoted and talented! The two abilities combined produce absolutely beautiful videos, artwork, and conversations. Our faith and endurance in the show is what makes me believe in a continuation of this amazing story! 😘

This show is truly a masterpiece. It's a shame it was cut short because the vision Bryan Fuller had for this was so grand even beyond what he created and I just wish we would have gotten to see it.

5 years later, i am still here, religiously watching this over and over again

It's September 2023, i just finished the series and i feel extremely privileged to be able to watch one of the highest levels of Art.....

It’s the first day of 2020. I’m still here and I’ll always be here. When life becomes maddeningly polite, I think about Hannibal.. Hannibal was more than a TV show to me. It was a life style. It still is. Without Hannibal, I’d be missing. I feel like a part of me belongs to this unique masterpiece. Hearing all those epic quotes, seeing all those beautiful scenes in this video.. i have no words to describe my feelings. Thank you so much..

i want them back so hard 😢

this show still remains my absolute favorite of all time, i don’t think any relationship in any series will ever compare to the complexity of will and hannibal’s, genuinely such a multifaceted gothic romance that wasn’t meant for NBC, maybe not even television PERIOD

The way it’s all clamped between him saying ‘Because he was my friend,’ and ‘and because I wanted to run away with him.’ Makes me want to cry, and everything leading up to it, I really can’t stop thinking about this.

"Stay with me." "Where else would I go?"

This is no doubt the best triller horror crime psychological serie ever made and with no doubt Hannibal and Will did more than amazing work with their performances and characters. Plus their dynamic, interaction and love story was beyond a masterpiece

Wow! breathtaking. I miss Hannibal so much... ❤

I watch it over and over, 7 years have passed and i am still here, because Hannibal is one of the best ting that happened to me

discovered hannibal in 2021. this show is incredible i wish we could have more seasons im sad

It is 2024 and i still want a season 4, 5, 6 etc

I've never seen hannibal but like... now i want to

Maaan, watching this is just painful. This show was an incredible masterpiece, it's such a pity that not many people can appreciate more complex stories like this one. But thankfully it's almost August, which means we'll soon get news on season 4 :) (Update: we're still waiting)

that first minute is absolutely hypnotizing

Every time I see the look on his face and hear Will say "you were supposed to leave" I feel another knife in my heart. The phrase is placed so well in this video. UGH... it's 2023 and I'm still not over this show or this ship. 😩🖤

I am speechless. I got chills watching this. Just absolutely breathtaking.

I cant begin to imagine how many times I've rewatched this video since finding it. I think this video perfectly encapsulates their relationship, the raw and beautiful aspects of it

That scene where Hannibal gives himself up and says "You'll know where to find me" such a bro moment. Just saw the whole thing this past two weeks and the finale was epic. Only thing: I wish Abigail had survived.

I'm crying, shaking, laughing, and smiling all at the same time. This show will forever have my heart and so will these characters. I want to personally thank you for keeping their memory alive, I can see your dedication from this. I truly believe their relationship expressed that of a soulmate form. Neither one can live without the other.

I've never seen this show but now for sure I will.

God this is utterly beautiful and dark and haunting, the way you built up the intensity in this video by picking up the pacing of your editing to go with the music build up was so perfectly done!! I also love that you used a lot of shots in this are not seen in Hannibal videos, this show truly has some of the most darkly beautiful cinematography around and you showcased it to perfection! Also, this it the song that introduced me to Olafur Arnalds via Broadchurch and I've seen many videos to it but this is genuinely one of the best

So many fanvids use cringey songs and cringey edits, but this is so artfully done. Great work

Bryan Fuller has stated that season 4 would've been about Will and Hannibal being officially a couple and hunting together. We could've had it all. 😔

Nothing makes me feel as empty as remembering Hannibal ended before it should have

I've watched this several times and it's a marvellous design. It made me look at the characters in a more subtle and human angle. If you for once stop psychoanalizing these two characters and look at them as just two individuals with powerful minds who were thrown at each other, you can see that they found what they were aching for, for a lifetime and were just overwhelmed with it once they found it in each other. They fill each other and complete each other. That's why Will feels more himself when they are together. Their minds morph in to each other, embrace each other, elicit bits, plant bits, change the bits, hurt and console. It's power exchange. It breaches the frames of love and romance and hits the level of becoming each other. In my opinion they never wanted to kill each other. They can't live without each other. Will pretended to have tried, provoking the surrounding to counteract the situation to see what would happen. They can't live with each other because they are destructive and influence each other’s both smooth and cruelty. They are one soul split and trapped in two personalities... The most beautiful part is at the end of season 3 Hannibal decided to give up and invited Will to kill him. 'Save yourself. Kill THEM all.' He meant both dragon and him. But we all know how the love of his life reacted.

almost 2023 and nothing can fill this hannibal hole

OOHH MAN GENIUS I was so pissed when you didn't include the "because i wanted to run away with him" BUT its at the end ayyyy I love it

i come back to this video everytime i miss hannigram ToT

Never watched this, I don't get a single thing of what's happening on this edit, I just know I'm speechless and this is damn beautiful

tears in my eyes... i miss them so much

It's s 2021 i can't get over it

I'm not gonna stop watching this video. Only the end of the world can stop me.

2022 and I'm still watching and rewatching this masterpiece. While hoping that they still might make a season 4.

It made me cry I see the pure art in the way you separated "because he was my friend" and "and because I wanted to run away with him" in the end. It literally made me cry at the end when you put _that_ scene after these words

Since i was born , i would't think i will be obsessed with any series til i saw Hannibal, i lived in every moment in this series , i felt like i know them in the real life , Will ,He influenced me a lot , icant stop thinking of him since i finished Hannibal, the best thing i have ever did was i chooseed this series to be my best thing i ever watched . I just wanna say : their acting masterpiece I love the way Will loved Hannibal , that way made him forgive Hannibal ever when he killed Apigil and made red dragon go and try to kill his family , and Will kept protect him :( I hope that this series have many seasons and doesnt end♥️

It's beautiful!

2022 now and I'm still waiting for the 4th Season, the 5th, 6th, hell a 7th.

Who still watching this in 2023? I just can't stop watching it.😞😞

God I’m freakin’ love this masterpiece. the fact that they canceled the series makes me cry every year. 2023💔

This edit should be placed in a National Museum. This is a national treasure that needs to be preserved. The amount of effort that you put into creating this one is 🖤.

Well, I can stop watching KZfaq now cause I just found the most flawless video of all time.

i miss them😭😭😭💔💔💔

Holy shit, this was so beautiful.

best edit i have ever seen of will and hannibal

It is 2023 and I'm still waiting for season 4, I'm not giving up on this one!

i swear i come back to this video every year

It’s the first day of 2022, I am still here :)

I can't even count how many times I keep coming back to replay this piece of art

this is one of the best hannibal edits ever

is it june of 2020? yeah. am i still crying over these two? yep.

This is actually a great summary of the show

This is such a great depiction of their relationship and what Will is going through and sums it up beautifully to me. I've found myself revisiting this video over and over again.

It’s 2021 and I still watch this

2022 and I just learned about this masterpiece two days ago and finished it. Season 4 please!

This masterpiece is so great ！ I want to add Chinese subtitles to this video. You remember when you decided to call hannibal? 你記得當你打電話給他 I wasn't decide when I called him. 當我打給他時，我無從決斷 I just called him. 我只是 I decided... 我下定決心...... When I heard his voice. 當我聽到他的聲音 You told him we knew. 你告訴他，我們發現了 I told him to leave. 我讓他離開 Because I wanted him to run. 因為我希望他逃離 Why? 為什麼 Because... 因為 Because he was my friend. 因為他曾經是我的朋友 I wanted to understand you... 我想要瞭解你 Before my eyes laid on you again. 在我再次望進你眼底之前 I need it to be... 我需要這一切...... Clear. 清晰 what I was seeing. 我正在看望的一切 what do you see? 你看見了嗎? Do you feel alive will? 你覺得你存在嗎？威爾 I feel like I'm fading. 我感覺我正在消逝 You're alone... 你一個人...... Because you are unique. 因為你很特別 The reason you currently used to work homicide 你以前不處理兇殺案 is because you didn't have the stomach for pulling the trigger. 因為你不敢開槍 You just pulled the trigger 10 times 你剛剛開了十槍 I'm as alone as you are. 我如你這般孤獨 Stay with me. 待在我身邊 Where else would I go 我還能去哪裡 I stared at hobbs... 當我凝視他 And the space oppsite me 我對面的空間 assumed the space 假設空間 of a man 一個男人 filled with dark swarming flies 黑暗中被成群蒼蠅所環繞 I can see you now. 我現在看清你了 Is this who you really are ? 這是真正的你嗎？ I know who I am. 我知道我是誰 If you don't kill him... 如果你不殺了他 It's all starting to blur. 一切開始朦朧 You're afraid you're going to become him. 你害怕你成為他的傀儡 When life becomes maddeningly polite 當你厭倦婚姻生活的客套 think about me. 想想我 I don't want to think about you anymore. 我絕不會再想你 I gave you a rare gift. 我送給你一件禮物 But you didn't want it. 但你不想要 I let you know me. 我讓你瞭解我 see me. 看著我 You were supposed... 你應該...... To leave. 要離開 We couldn't leave without you. 我離不開你 Feeling yourself from me and 我中有你 me feeling myself from you 你中有我 They're the same. 無法割捨 see... 看..... This is all I ever wanted for you,Will. 我曾經想給你這一切，威爾 For both of us 為了我們 and because I wanted to run away with him 因為我想和他終生廝守

i'm in tears, and i'm speechless. this masterpiece portrays the very essence of their relationship in such a beautiful way honestly.

Never before has a show made me suffer so much. Suffer because it ended! I still cannot get over it; yet I am afraid that, should they revive it, there will be no happy ending for this two. Not that falling of a cliff is a good ending, but they were together, and as per Brian Fuller's words they are alive and on the run together, and that is how I want to think of them. Beautiful video.

this is a fucking masterpiece and no one can tell me otherwise

I'm rewatching Hannibal for the fourth time and I find myself spending hours of my free time watching fanvids on youtube. Well, some of them are really just mediocre fanvids, but this, this is a masterpiece. I got chills by watching it. I'm speechless.

It is 2021 and i still want season 4

Just finished watching Hannibal again. This is a masterpiece. And this fmv is so good

I have just finished the series for the first time. It first aired when I was 17, and I was turned off of it after the cello scene because I was young and couldn’t handle gore. However, I was also mentally young and didn’t connect with the material. Now, as a 25 year old adult, I watched this entire series all the way through in a few sittings. This show is a masterpiece. I’ve never come across a series that makes me feel the way this show did. I felt the entire spectrum of emotion while watching. From disgust to excitement. From grief to giddiness (Hannibal giving up his freedom for the guy that just dumped him.) I’m so glad I gave this show a second chance.

this blew my breath away. well done. you put so much emotion into this

the audio alone is enough to make me cry god damn

I come here to rewatch this every once in a while at least once in a month...this is truly the best hannibal edit.

masterpiece edit from a masterpiece show

Idk how you guys could wait for many years. I finished watching half a year ago and I'm already dying.

I've never seen this show. _After watching this edit._ I'm going to watch the series right now.

this is just perfect. hauntingly beautiful. the whole show is an aesthetic masterpiece.

This is literally THE best Hannigram fanvid I've ever seen and I'm not exaggerating. You managed to portray all of the philosophy and dark beauty of their relationship in such way it makes my heart ache, I really don't have words to describe how perfect and emotional this video is. The ambiance, the selection of scenes, dialogues, the manips... incredible. Each time I watch it it's like re-reading a favorite poem and it gives me more hope for their love. I know this would get lost in the comments, but I just want to let know this is a piece of art and the best representation of their story in 5 minutes. Pure poetry and melancholia. I wish Bryan Fuller and Thomas Harris could bless this.

This told the whole story like... I just love this

It's 2021, and I seconded! Wanting season 4,5,6,etc.. and more Hannigram

Personally, I'm very happy about the fact that this video was my introduction to Hannibal and the Hannibal fandom. I've come back to it so many times since then. (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠✧⁠*⁠。

this was the video that actually made me watch the show and I'm so glad I watched it, and that you had the time to do it and upload it. What a fucking masterpiece.

I'm still here watching this stunningly put together video, of this haunting beautiful series. The greatest bond ever ❤ i always felt so sorry for Abigail though 😭 she was used and abused by both her father and Hannibal

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL IM SPEECHLESS. Also I feel like how they used the word "see" was super important in this show to reveal who can see the true nature of someone and I LOVE how you included all its evolutions from "I can see you now" to "I have let you see me ... know me" and finally "See ...This is all I ever wanted for you Will. For both of us". AHHHHHHHH THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY

holy hell i am so dead and speechless. honestly. i will have to come back with my thoughts or something because this is beautiful i cant process it. i love the quotes you used to build this and i like the pause you included before the ,"because he was friend" . and the beginning interlacing will going to find hannibal in the church and him at his house. b-bye. you captured the show and will so well

SOBBING. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE

This gave me chills. What a good series and what a good edit.

I'm literally watching this year's after the first time. It still gives me chills. Absoltue work of art

this edit psychically hurt me it’s a masterpiece

Bu diziye yapılan en mükemmel edit her izlediğimde beni ağlatıyor. Teşekkür ederim. Fandomun hala yaşıyor olması çok heyecanlandırıcı

i don't know anymore if i have cried more for s3 final or this edit

3 years and still listening to this masterpiece...

“If I saw you every day forever Will, I would remember this time” God I love this damn show and this video is absolutely a brilliant representation of the brilliance of the show itself!! This is why I come back to it over and over again just like the show!! Can’t help myself! Cheers

29.10.22 İt's still masterpice

I come back to watch this so often
