This is fantastic!

Woah

I could say that the thing with the frog could be a parallel with what happened to Caleb, when he died Belos created another one, as Caleb did with the frog and the rock

It's sad, but we shouldn't let this forget that what he did later in his life was unforgivable. It should explain, not excuses .

Disney when a show isn’t popular the very first episode 😡

AWWWWW OMG THIS IS SO SWEETT 😭😭😭

This is amazing, It looks and feels like something taken right outta the show! Everyone who worked on it did a great job!

This was amazing

Owl House got canceled, so the fandom will take it from here lol

I love seeing this side of Philip. I wish we got to see more of his and Caleb's relationship in the show.

THIS. IS. SO. GOOD. 🔥

Oh my GOD what the hell this is the most amazing animation I've seen in a LONG freaken time. Like I can't even imagine how LONG this took. You like need a patreon or something you're INCREDIBLY skilled and should be paid for your work.

This sure is a lovely animation, I'm looking forward for more of your content!

0:22 is that the Mr Frog replacement from the newest animation you made?

THANK YOU FOR THIS

Sometimes, I wonder if the Wittebane brothers were born much later.

And Caleb and Evelyn seemed to had such a sweet relationship, like that i could imagine Cal felt trapped into that puritan enviroment and how he had to took care of Philip because he wanted his own life and felt like that kind of extremist community was suffocating and didn't fully adapt to him, cause probably he used to be a pretty much religious guy, yes, but not like Philip/Belos as a zealot who used religion as an excuse to everything shitty he ever did and who was actually more rational and understanding, but he really didn't know any better so he felt resigned to that world, that not to say he was perfect cause if i'm not mistaken (but i ain't sure if it's canon) he also approved of witch hunting and maybe was even a bit much part of it (and about that it could be interesting a redemption arc about this for his character and relationship with Evelyn and then the boiling isles). Then he and Evelyn met probably in their teens and he felt with her as he could be fully himself, without having to be "the guardian" or in the fear of being judged because of being "flawed or sinful or heretic", finally could open up knowing he was understand by an equal, cause as much as he might loved Philip he still always had to play "big bro", "the adult" ever since he was a kid himself and despite how much close they might have been he still probably felt as he couldn't open up about everything

THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY SPLENDID, YOUR WORK IS ALWAYS A BLESSING TO US OWL HOUSE FANS AND WHEN I SAW THE NOTIFICATION I HAD A HUGE SMILE ON MY FACE!! THIS WAS SO GOOD !!!

NO CALEB WAS SUCH A GOOD OLDER BROTHER FRICNSKSMSSISNSKSNKSSNSN

Holy- this is amazing?!?!

GUYS CALEB WITTEBANE IS UZI DOORMAN CONFIRMED! (I was lowkey tweaking when I read who the voice actor for Caleb was in this)

Good enough, welcome back the owl house ✨

Animation is so beautiful

We're definitely going to be calling this Series "The Wittebane Diaries".

Wow, I’d LOOOOOVE to see more! PLEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSSE!!!!!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

2:19 Yeeeeeah... not for a while but probably sooner than you think...😓

2:18 that did not age well.

um, this is amazing- Wow

o u c h

Amazing animation and wow Philip is as whiny as Prequel movies Anakin, what a crybaby.

The sheer quality of this is just.... wow.

Kid was so close to ending up in Amphibia.

THIS DESTROYED ME I CAN'T

you had NO RIGHT to give us all these emotional backflips or whatever they're called (but whatever, great job I loved this lol)

this is amazing!!

Props to Magpie! We never got to see Phillip/Belos' backstory in the official show, but THIS...THIS IS PHENOMENAL. The animation is so similar to the show- spot on, in fact- and the writing... I'd always thought of Belos as an irredeemable bigot of a villain (and he ABSOLUTELY still is), but this shows another side of him. He started off as a lovable, innocent boy slowly broken down by years of hurt as he was raised to adulthood in a society that punished anyone who deviated from the norm. Eventually, these toxic teachings became so ingrained in his heart that he went on to shape a dysfunctional society in the image of the one that he had grown up in. My favorite detail in this animation is how when Phillip became Belos, he kept the stone Mr. Frog. It could be a reminder of his brother, but I think it's more likely that it's a reminder of the false belief he has that "those who are different will inevitably be punished for it", adding a bit of continuity to his arc and giving commentary on real-world issues. Villains like Belos are a warning to all of us who are watching. Because when we hurt others for being different than we are and teach others to do the same, we perpetuate the same cycle of hate and abuse exemplified in Phil/Belos' story. And even though he's a fictional character, I wish I could tell little Phillip he was fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of a forgiving, loving God, a being who is nothing like the one the people of his town follow. One that doesn't punish people for being different, because He made so many people with different personalities and passions and yes, different dominant hands. I wish I could tell Phil he was loved for who he is. I wish I could take him away from that place and help him heal and grow into the person he was meant to be, instead of taking the dark path he did. And for the person reading this, I don't know if you believe in a God, but I hope you know that you are, and always have been, loved. Pass that message on, so we can make our world, and our stories, filled with far less horror and tragedy than Belos'. gosh that was long...and sappy, towards the end... but I had to get that off my chest. Cheers!

this is amazing, you are so so talented!!!

The prequel we all wanted

NO I CANNOT FEEL SYMPATHY FOR BELOS!

I felt cheated that Disney didn't let Dana Tarrance and her team have more episodes that would have let us know more about Caleb and Philip's story. Thank you for filling in the gaps for us.

OMG I need to see more of this!

gosh this is amazing, I basically consider it canon at this point lol. if Dana or the rest of the TOH crew haven't seen these yet, I definitely think you should send these to them!

I`m going to fucking cry

1:53 Well that went dark.. (Thank you for giving us wittebane content)

OH MY GOSH YES

jesus, Phillip was so saddened by mr frog dying, and him thinking that he was punished by god for being left handed, it just hurt, and for Caleb to just have sit there and tell him was just so sad to watch.

„Are you going to die too?“ it really hits hard hearing it from Pip, knowing what he will do to him…many many times

ONG THIS IS SO SWEET IM CRYING 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Me when, when. When sillies, me when. YIPPIE!!!!💙♥💙♥💙

I hope the creator recognize your well and hard-worked animated episode ✨
