[TruthInABrokenWorld]

what a beautiful imagination this person has

[SuperSchattenlady]

this is so beautiful that I cried when I saw it I hope you make more such movies just fine.

[gypsydreamer09]

very touching!

[CrazierGirl1870]

Very very beautiful, but I don't really understand what the story was about...

[JesusIsTheSavior7777]

this is the most beautiful animation ive ever seen, wow, it almost made me cry..

[aurickandrien]

I'm so glad that I saw this on tv. It's videos like this that make me love animation.

[lumberface]

Just saw this on T.V..... A house full of drunk people playing twister....it stopped everyone. The only sound was this song, the only movements were the blinking of eyes. You've created something good here. Keep it going!

[Fierying]

;^;....

[altevoz]

Why only 70k views? This deserves at least 700k...

[NAAjine]

What's the song?

[EzkuDude]

@NAAjine song is Empty Eyes by Olive Musique.

[Pyro01Inc]

this is so cool!

[schwartzerdrache]

Wow, that's cool

[TheSilverFolf]

So many feelings, no words to describe them

[Spiritrunner6]

Not one word of exposition. Not one word of dialogue or explanation or narration... and none was even remotely needed. Beautiful enough to bring tears.

[loke177]

good

[wientext]

wolfgang koch was here.

[leshpar]

This is higher quality animation than most modern cartoons.

[Neves7561]

23 people have no soul.

[ONEINAMILLIONPPL]

I can't believe this has just made me cry. I am lost for words.

[magnetchill]

this is extraordinarily  beautiful

[andreasrylander]

One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Thank you for making my life a bit more magical.

[zenbyrd]

...it's so BEAUTIFUL TTxTT

[Orthrutos]

0:50

Oh... the little creature's the only one who can see the butterfly. Her father can't, apparently.

[lordmagicpants]

RIP Athus.

:(

[peppermillranch]

So beautiful...but I'm confused at the end, did they combine into one?

[riddlerules101]

this is soooo intenes NO JOKE

[xxAlicassiexx]

wow.. <3

[79Louise]

This is a beautiful film. Well done! ;)

[MonfangHowlett]

I'm in the nice part of youtube again.

[Rankuku]

When I watched this, it took my breath away. It's so insanely well drawn and there is just so much talent there. When I grow up, I hope I can be able to draw as well as this. <3

[SchattenDpg]

Beautiful! :'D

[DragonRiderOfTheSkys]

I wanna mask that can turn me into a dragon!

[ninjascrag]

Beautiful animation, beautiful music, questionable yet beautiful story...makes me wanna cry! ヽ(；▽；)ノ

[bethy2317]

I don't care if this is an old video. It's absolutely beautiful and gives off a lovely warm feeling.

[asadd2]

"Well, in Youtube they say - that asadd2's heart grew three sizes that day"

[lithius54321]

i just apreciate how this video was made it must have taken a lot of effort to do it :)

[talkativebun]

First of all, I would like to say how wonderfully beautiful this animation is. You are such an amazing artist!

Secondly I want to remind everyone that Athus Nadorian didn't make this as some people are being mistaken. Sushan Yue made this (as it says in the description and in the credits). She is not dead, Athus Nadorian is. He posted this on the day that he died because he thought it was so beautiful.

But again, this is one of the most touching and beautiful things I have ever seen.

[SAndroidProductions]

Really cool work.

[LollyLutieLuu]

beautiful, only word. Absolutely beautiful.

[DigimonQueen13]

Wonderful. <3

[Fjodin]

Amazing animation!

[Llyander]

Damn, that's just beautiful.

[tothequasar]

Words...not enough... :U

[doondad101]

RIP Athus

[shadow3477]

[TheMetrofocus]

[MsOutspokenOutcast]

I'm at a loss for words...

[silverraven360]

@AshfurWolf96 it's at the end of the video, it's called "empty eyes"

[PL0P13]

This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen or heard <3

[silverraven360]

the person that created this has the most beautiful imagination that i have ever seen

[AshfurWolf96]

What's this music?

[WhiteGorrion]

Extremely beautiful.

[XxsilverflowerxX]

[DrakoDragonis]

RIP Athus Nedorian, you will be sorely missed T.=.T

[RowanWolf22]

Most.. Enchanting..

The butterfly dragon... It gives up itself really, to go into the mask.. Such powerful thing.. Such friendship, in such short time.. you can feel the emotions coming from this.. It's wonderful, and sad at the same time.. Well done.. I truly am amazed at this.. <3

[Suppilovahveroloisto]

<3 so beabutiful <3

[Shadearrow12]

[Raqwaza17]

[Suppilovahveroloisto]

This is fabulous <3<3<3<3<3<3

[Myjapan4ever]

Out of curiosity, would anyone be willing to disclose the story of the animation? I'm dying to know what it's supposed to symbolize.

Thanks. :)

[skytheeevee]

this was so cute and so beautiful!

[rabidpinky]

probably the saddest thing (and cutest thing) i have ever seen

[Lyiend]

This is why I think 2d animation shouldn't die... it has such soul

[Lyiend]

Not sure why... this is so beautiful I cried...

[StarWell101]

Wow, I don't really know how I can put into words how incredible this is, your gifted! It's amazing! I wish I could draw and animate like you can.

[12Emma4life]

Me: Im going to kill 23 people

Frosthawk: By yourself?

Me: nahhh i got 55,689 to help me

frosthawk: ohh ok have fun

[BreeHX101]

Wow. Such a beautiful piece of work. Many congratulations to Sushan Yue for winning the award. I hope to one day be to this college. It would be an honor to work somewhere with such fine students.

[TheDebscook]

Wow! That was so beautiful! The animation was great and so was the story line!

[XxBrokenPandaxX]

This was beyond beautiful! It makes me want to go out and chase butterflys!

x./\

[rhpslover12]

[peacetheportalcat]

@gman586 would you mind not trolling on this?

you are agitating noone for everybody knows how to deal with sorts like you :)

now please shut up, and enjoy the animation.

[TheEternalChild7]

This animation (combined with the very fitting music) is so beautiful it makes me want to cry. Well done, Sushan.

[Dzheridein]

@NightLizard25 Olive Mucique - empty eyes

[skirtheretic]

@NightLizard25 Credits. Try looking at them.

[Aroranastar]

This is one of the most beautiful video's I have seen in a long time, very very very well done please continue to make such awesome stuff



[mcthrasher69]

GOD!! shut the fuck up gman586 just shut up geez this video is beautiful everyone else loves it and stop saying such mean things to us furrys FUCK!!

[BlackBulletRave]

@mcthrasher69 May I say, a very typical response.... I do believe your kind are what makes us furries look bad. :/

[KEITH2781]

@mcthrasher69 ya :S i agree with blackbullet

[silverraven360]

@KrobraProductions i couldn't agree more with you

[ben10master100]

Love This Great Animation

[silverraven360]

@gman586 stop being a douche so you can shutup and enjoy the animation

[madbananasaa]

i love it

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 Oh look, it's back XD And I hate to tell you but furries don't actual exist.. ~cuddles~

[silverraven360]

this person had such amazing talent and imagination. i thought it was beautiful. may you rest in peace

[Disco32er]

So much fighting.....SMH

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 I simply had to leave early and didn't recheck my work. I'd rather have a few spelling mistakes than be late you know~ But anyway, you are pretty sure? So you are agreeing that you are not completely sure am I right? And if you truly did not care, then you would not be trolling and that is the truth. Nor would you being trying to insult anyway. People who don't care, don't care. And leave it at that. Obviously, you're a bit bothered. ~hugs~

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 Tsk, Tsk, such a childish response. And again, you find yourself falling back on those two words, as if they were insults to me.. But I guess if you need attention so badly I'll give it to you. ~hugs~ Oh, just read your last statement~ Just because i choose to continue a conversation, if your two word phrases can be called that, does not mean i am mad. I simply hate leaving people without a reply. It's rude you know. And I have Chrome, much better in my opinion and it comes with SC

[Aupas]

@DeathNotesxMxChan You're getting trolled like crazy by one sentence responses bro lol.

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@Aupas lol, it's sad really. Most of the trolls I've met before could at least offer up a decent argument.

[Aupas]

@EvsterRob Sushan Yue DID NOT die and is NOT DEAD. Sushan is a student who did this animation and is very much alive at the moment.

The reason people are saying "RIP" is because a furry artist named Athus(Brian Dyer) had this linked on his FA account as his final journal entry before he died in a car accident.

[ben10master100]

@Aupas Really???

[bladecrusher01]

@Aupas Wat? He's dead? Well fuck. Never knew.

[failurebuddies]

@Aupas thats sad :( RIP Athus

[6G3rm4N9]

@Aupas oh my god is he ok? D:>

[JohnnyBoy232]

@6G3rm4N9 "before he died in a car accident."

[6G3rm4N9]

@JohnnyBoy232 >was talking bout the car

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 But I guess you're just too simple minded to understand any of what you are even saying. Poor troll. You can't even define your own words and put them into a correct insult. But I guess the fact that you consider those words insults just proves not only are you mentally incapable, you are also a racist and close minded individual. For shame, relying on such crude words to try and prove yourself. ~pats~ Now run along little one, you've been doing nothing but repeating yourself.

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 lol, is that really the best you got? I've said it before and I'll continue saying it, pathetic. And unless you can actually back up your statements on here, I'm afraid you're not realy nto worth chatting with. Just another troll who can't pull a descent statement~

And, as i assume you are not aware, faggot is a derogatory term referring to a male homosexual. I, am female~ Strike one.

Nigger is a contemptuous term for a black individual. I am not in that pigment range~ Strike two

[KrobraProductions]

@gman586 You have no respect for the dead. The very fact that you mock a man's hard work and his death is not only disrespectful, but down right pathetic. You might not give a damn, but there are people here that do. Think for a minute. What if you created something beautiful or inspirational, then died tragically? Wouldn't it infuriate you to know that someone would trash your hard work without even knowing you? If you can't respect the art, then at least respect the dead.

[cooperwolf22]

@KrobraProductions ya tell that racist immature bitch whats what

respect & honor for everyone even the ones you never knew.

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@KrobraProductions I'm afraid trolls like him will never understand. All in all, i think he's just jealous and someone whose seeking out attention by trying to slander someone else s name. It's really pathetic. But, all in all, he's just another troll. A coward really~ I assume the only reason he even bothers to speak up, besides the fact that he needs attention, is because he thinks the internet gives him invisibility~, guarante you he wouldn't say it in public. Pathetic.

[KrobraProductions]

@DeathNotesxMxChan I agree with you. It's sad really that one would go as low as to insult the dead to gain such attention.

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@KrobraProductions Truly it is~

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 And once again you have proven how utterly stupid you are with that statement. XD run along ten year old, I'm sure your mom will give you attention. And I'm not pissed, just slightly annoyed/ But I guess you can't interrupt even the most basic emotions over the computer. Tsk, Tsk. Such a let down you are~ Now then...Shoo. You obviously have nothing to back up your arguments and your foul language is just a pathetic attempt to make up for it. Poor troll~ You really are sad. ~pats~

[anthonywotton]

@gman586 You are the most insensitive and immature person I've ever seen... I don't even have words to say to you.

[lEriFreemanl]

This is too beautiful :')

[c001crash]

o its amazing i love it

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 lol, yup. No more comebacks left. Just as i thought. Now run along ~ I'm sure some deserted forum is looking for you.

[HomestarYoshi]

I dreamed a dream in time gone by, when hope was high and life worth living, there was no ransom to be paid. No song unsung, no wine untasted.

[SylvioTenenbra]

@gman586 Dont say bad things about Narse. He and athus were friends to the last breath.

On a sidenote, this video seems to inflict a lot of bad luck. Athus is dead and now Sushans too. But at least they leaved something meaningful to the world as so many people mourn their deaths. God protect their souls. R.I.P

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 poor child, falling back on that nonsense. Ha, looks like someone has run out of options.

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 lol, what run out of insults? I guess so, hat always seem to be your fallback when you're loosing the argument. Ha. Go troll somewhere else~ You've obviously been beaten. And do you think calling me a faggot is an insult? Such a pathetic creature.... Oh, well. Give it a week, everyone will forget you ever existed. ~watches the movie again~ And then all your little cries for attention will mean nothing.

[DeathNotesxMxChan]

@gman586 All you've done here is prove my point~ That you don't know shit and your just a troll. Unlike the artist here, who will be remembered for his inspiring works such as the one above. Truly, you are just one pathetic creature. Calling people faggots and trying to make excuses for your insults, you're no different than every other troll out there. All in all, you just want attention. and the only way you can get it is by insulting someone who can't even defend themselves. Pathetic.

[RetroOctane]

@superman77377737 You are a truly deluded human being.

[sabuteur]

So much arguing.. One person died after linking this video in a journal; the first series of RIPs. Then the creator died, which is also very unfortunate.

Can't we all just get along? Sheesh.

[Malkmusianful]

@sabuteur I have a feeling that Sushan isn't dead yet.

[TheKittyOKat]

But I don't get it

[TheKittyOKat]

aww, Kawaii!!

[mitzymoonina]

@TheKittyOKat And you,my friend are the reason why I hate all wanna-be-Japanese faggots.

[sezuor]

@mitzymoonina agreed 

[Malina247]

As far as I know he's not dead. Some guy posted a link to this animation on furry website and then died in a car crash. But it's not his work, I don't understand all the RIP's

[Malina247]

@Malina247 Oh, wait, seems she died too. My bad

[Disco32er]

@Malina247 He posted this link the day before he died saying how it's "A beautiful animation" in his words, and how its a coincidence that he posted this happy/sad video before he deceased.

[grabarcnr]

@gman586 Pffft nice comeback XD I think I might be scared for life now

[djxthexmonferno]

@gman586 This was posted on FA according to older comments, so yeah, I think he was a casual furry or at least an artist that would be considered "furry". Problem?

[RetroOctane]

@superman77377737 You really can't make an interpretation of what this is about? Well this is just my interpretation but I think the dragon represents friends and family. 1:40 seems to be about trusting your friends and family because even if you fall they'll be there to catch you. And I think the end is about how friends and family are always with us, even if they're gone.

[djxthexmonferno]

@gman586 Interesting take on the matter, good sir. However, I see no penises in this video even though it was done by a furry artist. I myself am a furry writer to an extent, and I do not write sexual stories about my characters, nor am I interested in yiff. As for your dead fag, that is quite unfortunate but I'm sure you could simply light up another. Cigarettes aren't hard to come by, after all.

[djxthexmonferno]

@superman77377737 Pssst~ if it wasn't for "no life losers", guys like you wouldn't exist and neither would every animated movie and meme that's ever been created. ;3

[drakzus1]

I like this, but there is one thing I don't get?

Who's Nigga and Sushan?

[LSelkiegal]

Don't know how many of you are trolling and how many are sincere, but as far as I know, Sushan Yue is not dead. A lot of us were brought here by the final journal of someone else who was popular in the art community. He died in a car accident the same day that he shared this, hence all of the RIPs.

[NzKya]

@LSelkiegal calling us trolls? jeez internet these days

RIP

[draconas109]

[L337Z3k3]

Oh my god. I cant believe this travesty. She will forever live on through her beautiful artwork. Requiscat im pace.

RIP Will be missed.

[EvsterRob]

RIP I can't believe this would ever happen ): This just makes me think about the time that I have spent watching these videos, and how they have inspired me. Once again RIP Shushan Yue, you will always be remembered as a great artist!

[KateMossTurdStain]

So sad, taken far too soon :( You will be greatly missed Sushan.
