VEAS 14

[acg452]

Ha ha. Star Wars Gangsta Rap. Love it.

[PseudoHuman16]

It's funny, Angst means Fear in my language, but I don't really get the joke. What do you mean with Angst?

[hakulives2613]

@PseudoHuman16 In this case, angst means being dramatically sad and depressed, usually tinged with guilt if the reason for angst is your fault.

[animalia555]

i am glad you kept the most epic of all of Escaflowne's pointless fight scenes intact

[brinahardmo]

hunny that cute lil vets is jus u all over.....O CRAP ROBOTS!

[CrystalFlames]

Hold on. I just need to say that I love the use of "Final Vision" from the movie. One of the best tracks.

[x1Brooklyn1x]

need more angst, can't fake it, gotta feel it. this is going to pop up in regular conversation now, i have a feeling.

[crazyjavi87]

Ansgty angsty combat.

Angsty Angsty combat.

[AlchemyAngelizBack]

"Good. Crazy hermaphrodite come. We go."

I lol'd

[suprememaz]

Hey, Dilandau, Char Aznable called. Hey wants his signature color scheme back.

[nailin18]

Oh, you are back! Cool.

[LeaderoftheAwesomes]

Star Wars rap? WTF? Am I missing something?

[rns13]

what's up you got all serious at the end there?

[giomole]

it's been a year already?

[kiyoshi85]

lol.... stop making me like Mir's fiancee.

[kiyoshi85]

I always thought that guy who's allen's friend was hot *___* ;;

randomness.

[shadowUrufu]

what was that last bit at the end of the episode from? I've seen\heard it somewhere but it was a long time ago... eh well.

[thedudewithdaface]

i love black escaflowne. one of the best yoko kano's done. but not as good as tank. nothing beats tank. now that's a manly man's music!

[jmccu100]

cosmic maintenance men?

[MisuOfArabonaClan]

2:31 sooo Starcraft

[dudeisodumb]

"What is thy bidding my master?"

"It's a disaster Skywalker we're after."

"What if he could be turned to the dark side?"

"Yes, he’d be a powerful ally, another Dark Jedi."

"He will join us or die."

[rockhellien]

this is my favorite part of the series, LOL.

[DevilDan83]

I thought Escaflowne is kinda impractical. Isn't an armor supposed to protect you from harm?

[Chrno34]

@DevilDan83

*coughs*Evangelion*coughs*

[pfeilspitze]

"Just you and me and my GUARDS!" ~ Robin Hood Men In Tights

[Dat0Weird0Guy]

lol @ the end

[SP1rAlinGDowN]

star wars references all around!!!

[arelimoon29]

aw...Poor effeminate male making Escaflowne freeze and Spoil-ridden villain loosing all his...her...um...it's men. Yaaaaay for on-coming angst and super twisted plot.

[MrRedtiger288]

rofl tech support

[Animecouple990]

NOOO CHESTHER!!!!!WHY!!!!!!

[WildOkapi]

Dryden totally looks like Rowe Rickenbacker from Licensed by Royalty.

[truhgoyyyyyy]

more ... more... more

[1aundulxaldin]

Holy Crap. Right now, at this VERY Instant, I just got the "Hermaphrodite" Joke. O___O That was a disgustingly clever way you used it, Mr. hbi2k.

[clarkbrett84x]

What's the joke I'm not sure I got it. So could you tell me what it is?

[FelinaofL2]

@clarkbrett84x

It involves a MAJOR spoiler of the series which is very confusing. Look up Dilandau on Wikipedia if you must know.

[1aundulxaldin]

A "Hermaphrodite" is an animal or plant that has both male and female reproductive organs.

Think about that for a second.

[rockhellien]

@1aundulxaldin

that really is the most fucked up thing ever about the crazy guy being Alan's sister, I nearly wanted to throw up when I discovered it in the anime, LOL.

[Kagimine]

what song is the begining theme? it goes like 'i put my feet upon the ground now im afraid that i cant fly picking me up ready to burn in the fire today' or something.

if someone knows it, can you please send the MP3 to me! please and thank you :)

[PrayerReverie]

Aw man, what's that end song with the Star Wars rap?

[L33tShamanKing]

@PrayerReverie It's the "Star Wars Gangster Rap"

[yummybakura]

I just watched all of these. Really great acting and writting in this <3 Though I am sad Dilandau is pretty much gone for the rest of the series D:

[MrBlindcat1]

KaiserNeko is awsome

[yungo1rst]

yay! jawas!

[soulnova]

Angsty angsty angsty COME BACK! xD

[ironhidewulf]

dont bother it didnt work rofl

[greatsage4ever]

Another hilarious epic abridged episode with powerful angst abilities!

Van's angst so pwns Sasuke's!

Hahaha stars wars references!

[evice]

That's not a good thing, just look at Shinji from Evangelion.

[ObsidianKnight90]

Nice vid, still, I don't understand how his mech suddenly froze at the end of that fight.

[HPAnimeFreak]

In the anime, it shows that all the killing gets to him, he blacks out or something, and because of the empathic link he has with Escaflowne, it freezes too.

[NeverAloneForever]

More SW references.

[NeverAloneForever]

lol James Brown. Alright now fellas, I gett'n redy todo my thang...lieka lieka sex machiiine man." lol

[NeverAloneForever]

lol Was that GnR?

[blaakmage]

weell that was wierd

[Nocturne22]

"Yah, don't bother, I've tried that it doesn't work!"

Hah - you guys know exactly when to stop with the running gag and just make fun of the gag itself xD

[dirtyred90]

LOL! They keep getting better & better every episode. & I know I said this before, but I just can't get over how real KaiserNeko's V/O for Dilandau is. 100x better than the original. Thanx a bunch, hbi2k! ^_^

[elric225]

what was the opening song?

kinda sucks he never mentions that in the info...

[ghostmanx4]

Found it for ya, Elric.

It's Masterplan , Keeps Me Burning.

Friggen' epic song, it is.

[onexbigxchibi]

i'm so glad you brought Van's singing back! i lol'd so hard. ^w^

[Grahav]

One Piece Reference :D

[daved1030]

epic van goes crazy

[playpus]

Lol! Tech Support!

[finalfantasyVII101]

i don't think people who haven't seen the entire series would get that hermaphrodite joke LOL

[grandpianogeorge]

The Jawa are very wise. They know to stay away from a fight with the pretty boys in a show that panders to girls.

[straightlikethat09]

wow thats 1 ep per week

[SuperJvRunnerBoy]

A full "angsty combat" song would be the best thing to happen this month.

[29013000032862]

Epic angsty fight.

[EonRifft]

We got Death star!

[ChromeHomura]

What the hell man we didn't even do anything to your parents!

[DosuZakuKin]

"Honey that cute little vest is just you all over- Oh crap giant robots!"

[chiissu]

turning black is never good. remember optimus prime and the dragon balls? that wasnt good and neither is that happening to open wounds.(on snap! in hokuto no ken people turn into black silhouettes before exploding into black blood firehoses)

[Bloodlust69XD]

whar kind of drugs are you on and why aren't you shareing

[chiissu]

cuz the pararell universe versions of the escaflowne characters who visit my mind from across time after they died in their universe and came to help me with my gender issues but in the end they were my first kiss but it wasnt rea since the ghosts were from the future and something about the gundam wing bikini babes

[e5hero5renegade]

MASTERPLAN SONG= EPIC WINNAGE! I will favorite this one just because of that little opening bit being my favorite Masterplan song

[VBallxAnimeRoxUrSox]

...Did Dryden have a hookah when he was talking to Millerna and telling her what she would get if she married him? :D

Ahh..Dilandu how I love you.

"Crazy hermaphrodite come. We go." "Crazy her-what?"

[jollytheoldsaint]

Elzam from super robot wars? Or is it that guy from get backers...or did they somehow breed to create some sort of super rich librarian hippie mechanic?

[Graycloak]

Awesome.

[flameroad123]

Epic Sweet! Btw, 2:20 -2:48 what song was that.

[SanguineSab]

Dude, seriously fucking awesome

[DariusJones456]

This is my favorite episode yet... apart from the one where Hitomi ran through the city in the torn dress.

[xxGing]

This was actually my favorite scene in Escaflowne. I loved seeing Van kick ass in a less than heroic fashion. They don't have enough of that in animes.

[SonRyu]

wait, what the hell happened at the end?

[seijuruhiko]

We got da death star! lol i haven't heard that in years!

[KeyOfTheTwilight]

Awesome Episode! ^_^ I love it! Keep up the good work! ^_^ Also I love the Escaflowne the movie soundtrack! Even the one part when Van went all berserk, fight Dilandau/his soldiers.

[Axen901]

Exactly how did Allen get injured to begin with?

[DarkPhoenixMishima]

If your talking about what they were saying the beginning, it was from guarding Hitomi and Merle from tentacles.

If it's about his Guymelef, Dilandau owned him.

[speedy2davey]

We NEED a soundtrack list. Also, awesome as always.

[linkzeldi]

I love how you gave voices to the moles, or whatever they are.

[Vitiare23]

so youtube doesn't pay you for these? they should or is a copyright problem?

[demonhand]

Angsty combat! Hahaha.

[re619]

"what the hell man? we didn't do anything to your parents!"

[RuleOfThunder]

My only regret is that there are but five stars to rate with.

[ReikoSpazz]

This was an entertaining episode as for as Dramady goes simple because I liked the fight scene at the end and the look on Dilandau's face..

Also, props for my favorite star wars race. HOO-TEENEE!

*~t3h C.

[animalia555]

I love the look on Dilandau's face when Van goes all berserk in this episode.

[slicerness]

wow.... that... is the crappiest gundam.... EVER!

honestly one drop of blood and it just, dies?! does the robot have that disease that makes it so the blood doesn't clot or something?(forgot the name of disease)

[Vitiare23]

hemophilia

[hbi2k]

Well, it's not just ANY blood that does that. Remember, the Jawa mentioned that Atlantean blood in particular voids the warranty.

[FallenAngel1Vicious]

u got to hate those pricey Jawas

[DariusJones456]

@slicerness Hemophelia is what you call it when you don't have enough platelettes for your blood to clot. Maybe the Atlanteans have giant-robot antibodies. Or maybe the Jawas are just allergic to Atlantean blood.

[TehNotorious01]

@slicerness do mean hymophilia ( spelling ?? ) if so , i have no idea

[Cujoh]

"For my parents"

"what the hell man. we didn't do anything to your parents"

[ZeroFang3724667]

Whats the OP song?

[DairunCates]

Curse of Dance.

[deroth64z]

my fav part.. what are you doing...calling text support

[TraciPeteyforlife]

Epic work. You guys rock. You all do great work. So great in fact that I'm off to buy this off amazon.

[ThundaRooster]

Don't ya think you're driving the angst jokes into the ground? Maybe I should make a counter that tells how many times you said angst in an episode. Then again I don't like to complain, if I don't like someone's work then I shouldn't watch it, but I do still enjoy your series, I just feel it could be better.

[hbi2k]

It's not really a "joke" at this point, it's just the way things work. Like Spiral Energy in TTGL or chi in DBZ, it's what gives the characters their powers in my version of VoE. I'll be straight with you, it's not going anywhere, so if it bothers you you'll either have to decide that the series does enough other stuff you like to make it worth putting up with, or else stop watching.

I don't mean that in a dick way or anything. It's up to you whether VEAS is worth your time to watch.

[ThundaRooster]

I know what you're saying, it's your series do what you want with it, and the angst running gags don't take away from the series, it's just a minor quirk.

[Stmurda23]

interesting

[brigbjones]

ok. it was funny at first but this angst thing is starting to get annoying. yes the anime is trying to be overly emotional but im sure you can come up with a new recurring joke

[OneDragonmaster]

Ah... Tiny animal thingies with vests. How cute.

... No, wait, what the hell?

[SaimonasSako]

what the hell man, we didn't even do anything to your parents:D

[Saiga6]

Wait...

What?

[GmelMkII]

.... what just happened. Dark Escaflowne?

Either way this is probably the most epic abridged series ever.

[BMneko]

Ah, That was a close call for Dilandau. I would have been super sad if he left... Hey Kaiser does a good voice.

[SuperPatch246]

1:20 is funny

[cookiebandit18]

thanks for putting the extra work into making a new intro each time

[animedudeChris]

kickass openning

[skheretic]

I was afraid they were going to kill off my favorite character. Then I remembered no one important dies in these kinds of shows.

[hbi2k]

Balgus takes offense to that. Beefcake!

[skheretic]

Characters that exist for half an episode and then die horribly are the very definition of not important!

Although Balgus was fairly awesome, he just couldn't escape the fact that he existed solely to die. Poor Beefcake.

[fuzzyreaper]

what happend to him at the end?

[Jowgen]

WE GOT DEATH STAR!

[redbeast13]

my reaction at 2:30, "HOLY CRAP LOUISIANA CAME OUT OF NO WHERE TO ROUND HOUSE THEM!"

[shibien13]

Beef cake.

[MinotaurSlasher17]

Aww... They didn't do the deathstar part. LOL. I am so confused as far as the, suddenly freezing escaflowne goes....

[EdgeyvonKarma]

lol, fashion squirrels

[evilpaul626]

fuck yea !!!!

[1aundulxaldin]

Van is what happens you (BLEEP) with Angst and Giant Robots. *shivers*

[rajin95]

I feel like the plot is taking over the sires. Rather than your own jokes.

[redfairy577]

Yay!

[themadwriter]

Aww, I wanted sexy Van in pain scene!

[hassmann2000]

star wars rap for the win

[bootyrific]

HBI2K Singing for the win.

[redpill1984]

i want to know what the music on the titals is...

[Armokthegreat]

it is Masterplan-Keeps Me Burning

[arturo0727]

lolol 5:20 "for my parents"

"what the hell man, we didnt even do anything to your parents" lolol good one

[PhoenixMatrix8]

I think i died when he said "Crazy hermaphrodide come" Just give me a minute, ill be fine :P

[w07v3r3dux]

LOL. Dial up. Jawas. "This is for my parents!" "We never DID anything to your parents!" That part really killed me. Great job and love the SW rap ending! :D :D :D

[sesgel]

you should do an abridged version of the escaflowne movie too once you finish the series

[raininess]

I'm surprised those two at 4:25 never got a spin-off show.

[CsBTransition]

The dial-up modem gag nearly shot V8 out of my nose.

Very good work hbi2k.

[SgtKaneGunlock]

wow it looks like he shit his pants he was so scared

[NanaOneesan]

The power of the angst is too much!

[toonadict]

ROFL! Angst.. the cause and cure to all of lifes problems.

[LoyalMage]

Glad to see Van has finally mastered the ways of the angsty bishonen XD

[CrabTastingMan]

what is that background music when the mole-like jawa ppl's ship teleported?

[hbi2k]

That was from the Escaflowne movie OST.  Yoko Kanno ftw.

[Pitraptor]

Lol love the star wars references. Good touch with the Jawas too. And it's good to see you back in good health.

[Jjkaybomb]

Wow, really epic episode, while still being funny. Hard to do, makes it that much more amazing! A few of your episodes have been hit and miss for me, but this actually managed to pull of semi-serious to make at least the final fight scene into something that's actually kind've intense! Love it, great job!

[ridjf]

OMG he had a angstgasm that took over the suit!

[deoxy360]

Nice episode. Very nice. I need to pick up escaflowne on DVD when I can.

[commandervulkan]

and here I thought you were going to make a joke about the repair guys being the family of the mole man

[tikkeltje]

xd sofunny, even when i never watched the series

[FrobmanAKATillman]

Angst never solves anything. Like war and pop music!

[leafgreenbeast]

lol'd @ sex machine in the background.

[clarkbrett84x]

Fight scene with escaflowne EPIC!!!!! WIN!!!!!!

I love the FF3/6 music and the jawas just beautiful

[xsinvurt]

so many Star Wars Jokes XD I love it

[Cretamus]

What is the name of that opening song??? It sounded so cool!

[PaladinBash]

The little clips at the end are my favourite part of the series :P

[TherealMrChristophel]

What is VE, shojo or shonen?

[Jourichio]

Its was originally intended to be shonen with a shonen influenced art style but before it could get off the ground it got shelved for two years. When they came back to it they changed the art style (and maybe some other things I don't remember right now) to a more shojo look to try and hit a broader audience.

[kalaar]

I love dalandu Hetero...homo?sexually... I'm a guy but I know the secret.

[imphic]

Great work as always.

[kingboru121]

good stuff the angst joke is getting old though i mean i get it but its just isn't that funny..?

[WatanukiProductions]

I love Dryden... I mean heterosexually.

[kreehomel]

The Jawa reference was perfect and the bit with the campy gopher things almost made me choke on my food I was laughing so hard!

[SilverZeo88]

Awesome.

[Ynnepchan]

I fecking love Dilandau! XDD

[OMGahooly]

Gangsta 8)

[frogsalbatou]

Angst Event Horizon? Actually I was wondering if you were going to put the dragonslayers' mindfuck scene in. Well you got Dryden down perfectly. I'm just glad you seem to be doing it just as well, if not better than Vision of Nescaflowne.

[Butin28]

Love your work hbi2k!

[Schabang]

thank you for the star wars rap. really an excellent choice in music.

[Robotfan987]

Awesome. Star Wars references work wonders on me, keep it up! Also, the angst song needs to be on itunes. Get on that, I'll be the first one to buy it :D

[4GDragon]

What is Dilandau saying at 4:00? He's an awesome character.

[4GDragon]

Oh wait, never mind. "The deal was we let them get to the border. After that hunting season is back open boys!" Took awhile for it to register.

[KotetsuShinguji]

"Crazy Herma-what-now?!"

...sounds interesting~

[Som1stolemycookie]

the rodents lol!!

[tmacsmash]

500 million berry. Love the One Piece reference.

[4GDragon]

WHOA! Nice! This is a nice treat. Great music and everything.

[TweekMorgan4dictator]

man, you sure are making these fast now... Not that I'm complaining, I love it.

[collegsucks]

Hmmm, this was a double-take episode. Definitely worth watching twice in a row, and whoever played the rich guy has an immaculate voice.
