Therapist: Vax with mustache isn't real, he can't hurt you
Vax with mustache:
They actually took and showed in this fantasy a portrait of Vox Makina a few years later, I would even say a portrait from someone's wedding, wouldn't they. All that is needed is to replace the *spoiler* with *spoiler* and...
Oh my God, it's on again, accept my condolences, animators :lol:
Oh, it's a pity that there was no turning Grog into an eagle, but okay, I like the reference to this with 'Do something smart! Think! Think!' :D
Oooooh, I see Scanlan fist the wound, and brutally so, on the stream, as far as I remember, it was even more gentle : lol:
I thought that this was where they would make the moment when Wax unlocked the wings. It turned out beautifully.
'There's no such thing as luck' - funny to hear that from Wax)
'Screw your Matron!- wow, I like this phrase from Scanlan's mouth)
Scanlan MVP! How often have I uttered this phrase when watching streams, ahah. Tak-s, since here he was the one who finished off Umbrasul, who stole his sword and killed the sphinx with whom he became friends, then I think that the Kill will fall out with Reishan (but I really hope that Kerrek will also be, please), Tordaka, as on the stream, will kill Wax (and Vex will break the crystal), Vorugala, I think Pike will kill. They also need to deal with Anna. I don't understand how this can be fit into 12 episodes of 20 minutes, i.e. I understand, but it's too fast, imho.
Aaaaaah, isn't this the key to Magnificent Mansion? Yes?! YES?!!!1111
Whoa, whoa, whoa, that's exactly what I didn't expect, or rather, I didn't expect it to be this character, Larkin Watch I lost, ah ha :lol:

And now there should be that gif from Finding Nemo. Because... well yes.
Overall, the season turned out well, for me it's better than the first one, keep it up!)

Wachs, who believe that destiny exists, and there's no escaping it, and that humbly were waiting for the final blow from Umbraculi because "then that's my fate," and Scanlan who disagree with him and all "Screw your Matron!"... oh boiiiii *screaming, crying, throwing up* 😭😭😭😭😭

@Nog: Yes, this series has a particularly strong vibe of Dragonlance. At one point, it seemed that they would drop a mountain on the dragon, as in one of the books. And the girl who hung out with the dragon is very similar to Kitiara, I wonder if she will be discovered?

A little bit ahuet😱 it was legendary (wait wait) darno, legendary. If Umbrasil is the "weakest" and almost all the heroes almost died, and there's still a whole army on the way... the level of anxiety for the heroes has skyrocketed. I was so worried about Wax's emotional and moral condition, he has changed a lot, he does not dance, he does not joke. But this episode has cheered up a little. It is clear that reconciliation with oneself, mother and fate has been beneficial. Joke Fess: I have a broom, you have wings in your voice. I want to know why Reishan decided to betray Tordak. And the one (I don't remember the name) whose image he "tried on" is alive or not, does anyone know?

@Levindeed: I strongly doubt that there will be a dragon for the season, I think in season 3 they will close the conclave arch and if Amazon or they kickstarter again for season 4, then they will close the company there.

The only disadvantage of the final episode is that now you have to wait a whole year after it! Fortunately, it's good that the series has been extended and there are probably many seasons waiting for us.

Isn't it epic for a Scanlan to take down a dragon literally in one fell swoop?

And if this is a "weak" dragon with invisibility(!) and regeneration(!), then what can the strongest do? As for me, this particular dragon was one of the strongest. I even hoped that maybe he would try to compete for power in the conclave and the heroes would take advantage of it.

These shadows are just bullshit. The Wax armor does not help in any way in battle, gloves cannot even knock out a dragon, a bow does not pierce the skin, it cannot set fire to a fire golem... They didn't have to collect all this at all, but just give the overlooked Scanlan a sword and that's it.

And yes, Percy still looks like the biggest sucker with minimal combat capabilities. I don't know what he could have done in the original, but here he is portrayed as just a hellish noob. Maybe a few orcs from the Grog tribe shot.

@ChrisRedfield: so he didn't "take him in one fell swoop", the dragon was badly beaten up by the whole team before that, and at the same time Scanlan's sword is not some ordinary piece of iron, but a powerful artifact. And no, it's not too epic for Scanlan, if they reach the final arch of the campaign, there will be an epic)

It's a great season for me. I do not agree with those who say that galloping across Europe. The arch is complex and eventful, there are many dragons, the search for artifacts, and so on. They didn't show killing all the dragons in season 1.
Plus, Kiki, Grog, and Wax were partially revealed (he has a powerful branch development), and Vex, and Scanlan. All the characters have internal personal growth, so it was almost enough, as for me.
Well, maybe I wanted some long gatherings, but dragons are an extremely serious enemy, a filler would be inappropriate.)
In general, I'm really looking forward to the continuation!)
And the woman whose appearance Reishan took is alive, I wonder...

@ninon92: compared to the campaign, it's still a gallop, and because of the format with significant changes both in the plot and in the development of some characters and their relationships with others. Yes, yes, this is the standard "but it wasn't like that in the book, it was like this and it was much better!", I know :)

@HollaFawkes: it would be a gallop if they really tried to shove the entire Conclave into one season, so as not to do LoVM and M9 at the same time :D But apparently Amazon gave enough money, we are waiting for the final seasons of VM and the starting series of M9 to go at the same time in a couple of years

I watched the first campaign a long time ago, of course, but I have no complaints about accelerated pacing at all. The only exception is the relational part, that Waxlet and Persalia seem to be developing too sharply so far. But it would be stupid to allocate more time for their development, too.

So far, the two main mysteries for me are who they will find in Draconia, because well, obviously not Tibs, and what they will do with the Tarion arch, given that they are clearly hinting at it already, but a) it is severely sinking in intensity and b) they are absolutely not going to hell anymore.

I enjoyed watching this animated series. I liked the plot, the animation, and the humor. I even dug up their YouTube channel and watched them play)) It's a pity, there's just physically no time to watch all this.. But if anyone is interested, then mighty nein is translating a strange place, and what they are doing there in new images is also just amazing!)))

@Hellfrozenrain: Mighty Nein also announced a cartoon, if you missed it.
For me personally, Vox Machina remains my favorite, then Bells Hells (although it is still on) and Mighty Nein are already at the end. M9 was very slow in the beginning, the threats did not seem so global / scary and the potential of the characters was not fully revealed, but in theory it is better suited for adapting to a cartoon VM.

It is clear why they are in a hurry and why certain moments are being moved in places, but still there is an unpleasant feeling from many missed scenes. Yes, there was no budget for the filler episode, but still I want depth.

Overall, I'm still happy, but I can do better.

How I like it in general, I love this game and the series based on it just. I like that the plot looks like it was actually built by the players. (As they say, the cube decided so))) I'm glad that I found out about this series when 2 seasons had already been released and I watched everything in one gulp. I'm upset that I found out about the series when only 2 seasons were released and I can't watch more in one gulp. I'm thrilled. Dungeons and dragons are the love of childhood, I feel that this series will be the love of my adult life)

Let the plot of the second season be a straight typical RPG story, the series is still cool due to cool characters, excellent animation, humor and music. Wait and believe that the third season will not be delayed!

Great show! I haven't watched the original streams and I'm not looking for DnD, but from the outside everything looks super, cheerful action, beautiful style, the soundtrack is just fire. I like the development of all the characters and their touching friendship. It would be interesting to see some flashbacks in future seasons, as the whole team got to know each other.
I was very sad for Wax this season, I hope he will still find at least some of his former cheerfulness
