#mighty nein animated

I say this as a huge Caleb fan - one of the things I hope the M9 animated show doesn’t tone down is how prickly and shady and unlikable he is at the start of the story.

In fact, ramp it up even! There are no players who are actual friends to get in the way of giving us abrasive and off-putting Caleb!

MIGHTY NEIN FANS HOW ARE WE FEELING!!!!!!!!

I started lineart two times, hated it and then said fuck it and cleaned the sketch. As Nature intended.

The new official M9 animatic made me so happy!!

Artist’s Parents: wow, you’re working on an animated series? that’s great, hun. do you have a particular part you’re drawing?

Artist hired specifically to draw all the balls and cocks Jester paints upon any surface she passes: yeah background art

My list of characters I think Matt should voice in Mighty Nein animated:

Essek Thelyss

Pumat Sol

Artagan (which is obvious as he voiced him in TLOVM)

The Syphilis Bandits

Febron

Zorth

One of my personal hopes for whenever Mighty Nein Animated comes out is that, similar to how they cranked up the dial on Vox Machina being kind of underestimated loser mercenaries at the beginning to make their rise to legendary status more satisfying, I hope they really place notable emphasis on just how fucking shady the Nein are. Like, Vox Machina are crass dumbasses who aren’t above a little pickpocketing or B&E on occasion, but the Nein are on a whole other level. They will have done absolutely nothing wrong and they still act like they’re hiding a body under their floorboards. One of their first adventures together was framing a political figure for sedition and attempted murder. They stole a beacon just because they felt like it. Beau casually committed mail fraud in like episode 4. They have worked for the mob and have committed piracy. These guys are straight up criminals and I would like that to be made very clear.

A snippet of animation for the new Mighty Nein series was previewed and I need everyone to remember that Fjord used his real voice in front of Jester before they ran into Beauregard. Jester mentions in-game how Fjord was speaking differently. (Just pointing this out for those confused or disappointed he wasn’t using his texblade voice.)

So you know how Mighty Nein is eventually becoming an animated series?

If Beau doesn't actually have a notebook that she frantically searches through on multiple occasions i'll scream.

have been thinking about the recent interview about the mighty nein animated series where it was mentioned that the series as a whole would be more of a departure and that vox machina s3 is a similar change versus the more canon retelling they started with in s1 and i’ve seen some negative reactions to it but honestly i’m Psyched to hear that is a change they’ve committed to in their writing and storytelling for the animated series because like. we have the campaigns. and for me the moments in the animation that have fallen the most flat or haven’t felt as fulfilling is when the show has tried to capture the Same Thing as the campaign without having the hundreds of hours of context that supported the moment in the campaign that made it Significant. and it is much much more exciting for me to have a changed story that is changed because it is now. a episodic television show and not a recording of actors playing dnd. like . yes actually Please change the storylines to be storylines and not the whims of game players. yes actually please make a good story in the medium it’s being told in.

Can we please stop asking if Sam will not voice Veth/Nott in M9 Animated instead of a Female Voice Actor? It's unimaginative at best and transphobic/bioessentialist at worst. Literally the only reason why he might not is if he no longer physically can because of his cancer treatment/recovery, or some other unavoidable such reason.

She is *his character*, he is a talented voice actor with a personal connection to her backstory and motivations. This shouldn't even be a thing.
