5:21 "Uuuh, you don't know what kind of story you're in - you're in Greek Tragedy, man" That's just too accurate 😂 Odyssey might not have a clasic fully TRAGIC ending for the protagonist but uhhh... yeah. Ancient Greece did not do optimism lol

Protect polities. Glad your loving epic

im so glad you are enjoying this journey like the rest of us! you shall become a full time winion(what fans like to call themselves) in no time! also everyone agrees our sunshine boys favorite food is pancakes lol

The war exhausted their supplies.

Polites is our darling.

Mah boi Polites🥹my sweet summer child🥹

I wouldn't say Polites is naive. He's was a soldier just like everyone else. It's just that he's tired of it and wants things to be different.

There will be more Polites. So you do have that to look forward to.

Less than 24 hours ago, the 6th saga released, and the first 2 sagas got a rerelease, so Jorge and his team actually get money from it (It's been throuh a rights hell since the beginning, fixed by the rerelease). Do not feel obligated to go back and relisten to the songs you've already heard. Also don't feel obligated to seek out the rereleased version for the songs you have yet to hear. It is entirely fine to continue on your journey as is, watching animatics that are made over the old versions. I also feel it's important to state that it is very likely that by the time you get to the 6th saga that not all the songs will have animatics for them. If that is the case, I would recommend asking your audience what you should do when you do your reaction to the first song of the 5th saga.

Polites, my beloved 😭 Now you know why fandom adores him, he is such a sunshine Those creatures are the Winions or Lotus Eaters, in OG story they are humans who were brainwashed by Lotus but in Epic they are those cat-like cute mischievous beings.

The little creatures are the lotus eaters (they are human in the Odyssey, but the artist chose to draw them as cute little animals).

Polities is so cute I love him so much

Reminder to viewers not to spoil any upcoming plot points!

I made a playlist of all the animatics in order! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pKyYlLpzt9zPo3U.html

So for some info polites is odysseus bestfriend since childhood while eurylochus is his brother in law and second in command (eurylochus married odysseus sister)

They besieged Troy for a LONG time, that's probably where all of Troy's food went. That and all the other Greek's not under Odysseus that would also have claimed a share.

Thx for the reaction

I thinc people don't pay enough attention to everything that is said in the songs, because literally in the first song when Odysseus has an argument with Zeus, about solving the problem with the child, Odysseus gives every possible way to spare the child, and there is a part where Odysseus says how he will make sure that the child doesn't know of his true family, so that Odysseus can spare him and raise him to not be an avenger that Zeus tells him he will be, and Zeus literally tells him "The GODS will make him know" which literally means, maybe you will raise him, but me or some other god will tell him about what you did to his real family, and literally gave Odysseus an ultimatum, kill this child or I will make this child a problem for you in the future.

You know, Odysseus and his men weren't the only ones at Troy... I bet the supplies were divided between all the Greek Kings and their armies, and who knows if they even divided them fairy? I mean Agamemnon for example has always been historically the worst lol

If you didn't know the creator Jorge rivera herrans of epic, sing as the main character that is Odyssey. Here are singers and who the characters they playing -Eurylochus (best friend, brother in law, second in commander) sang by Armando Julian - Polites (best friend) sang by Steven Dookie

Meet best boy of Epic, Polites, Odysseus' best friend! And Eurylochus, Odysseus' second in command. They are very important so please make sure to remember them (pun intended). Next two songs will be Open Arms and Warrior of the Mind that will close Troy Saga. And for both songs I would recommend Mircsy's animatics, because they are connected.

I like watching people watch epic, ive binged mortius's and casper fox's reactions

I'm gonna make it worse lol. So one of, IMO, the most poignant scenes in the Iliad is in book 6, Hector runs to see his wife and his son. He tries to hold him and kiss him, but Astyanax was scared of him and cried. He did remove his helmet and prayed to Zeus to protect him, around line 476 i think: "Zeus, and you other immortals, grant that this boy, who is my son, may be as I am, pre-eminent among the Trojans, great in strength, as am I, and rule strongly over Ilion; and some day let them say of him: 'he is better by far than his father', as he comes in from the fighting: let him kill his enemy and bring home the blooded spoils, and delight the heart of his mother." and Zeus, being Odysseus' grandfather I think, is now telling him to kill Astyanax. so fun fact on that one

Yay another winion!! Glad to have you I look forward to how you react to this rollercoaster of a musical!

Hi, I love your reaction, just be careful of the playlist that you choose because sometimes the songs are not complete and it's just a bit of the song, you should listen to full songs to grasp the entire situation!

You have my respect, you are the only creator watching epic

make sure to double check the videos if its the full release songs. some reactors made a mistake of using the short version or raw recordings

To be fair "the gods told me to" was about the best justification you could have for anything in ancient Greece.

I love the direction there going in so as a fan of hellboy it really has attention

He does indeed drop the baby 😢😢😢

Welcome to the EPIC fandom! We have cookies! ^^ As many have stated, please react to the animatics in order and try to make sure you don't look at the videos from over a year ago as those are the teaser videos that are using the incomplete songs from before they were released.

Yeah welcome to epic. Enjoy it it really does live upto it's name.

Hello, i recomend you pause epic until the 4th of july and re-do the first two songs, because the troy and cyclops saga are getting re-released, so you should listen to that versions

Ah yes, and the creator of Epic is also voicing Odysseus. He casts amazing voices for everyone though! So much talent.

This is ABSOLUTELY a series you need to watch. I heavily recommend getting a list of the song order so the animatics you see/listen too tell the story in the right order! It very much enhances the experience. Gigi has most of my personal favorites but a few of her's arent the entire songs like some. Trust, you'll LOVE the rest of it and likely get some tear jerkers.

One of us! One of us! I also have a playlist of all the released songs in order.

Welcome to the fanclub man. Hipe you wnjoy this place

Yes, Epic is definently inspired by Hamilton

Not shown in this animatic is the baby’s mother watching in despair.

One thing to understand about the paradigm of Greek mythology is they often operated in terms of fate, if you got a prophecy like that you know your only options are A) you kill the kid B) the kid murders you and your entire family. Not only that but in the song Odysseus gets a personal guarantee that the gods themselves will be involved in making sure that happens. As the verses "The blood on your hand is something you won't loose / all you can choose is whose." imply, to Odysseus this is not a choice of whether to kill an infant, it's a choice of whether to kill an infant or kill his own family by proxy.

Hey, so as you go on this Epic journey, there are a million options for animatics. I've compiled a list of my favorites that you can use as a cheat sheet while watching. Even if you don't use this one, I wish you the best of luck on this Epic journey! kzfaq.info/sun/PLDtLFTo7J8DvaJQDZ3jdAbipzc66jodQD

Epic is awesome, there are so many interesting hidden details! So if you do plan on checking out the rest of what is out, here are some interesting tidbits: 1. Every named character has an instrument attached to them, for example, Odysseus: guitar, electric when he's being strategical and ruthless, acoustic when he's emotional and more open. 2. All the vocals exist within the epic universe, meaning if you hear the backgroung vocals or a chorus, it's characters singing. With one big exception: gods. Gods, powerful beings they are, can summon background vocals that don't exist in universe.
