I love the man in blacks character he is so damn interesting to me like I know he's not in the right but you can't deny he has a point he's just a good damn villain (Fuck Sword tho on gang)

God it just hit me that Ame asked Suvi to stay hidden just as Grandmother Wren did when they all spent that fateful summer together as kids. Ouch

Brendan saying "it is day" so nonchalantly but also so *swiftly* after the man in black leaves is an incredible transition

I know the talk is for an animated series, but I can only picture Tom Sturridge as the Guardian of The Threshold

Every time I think of the man in black I think of The Dark Tower series by Stephen King which is my favorite book series of all time. I love love love this character and the animation. In the last fireside Brennan was talking about how the scariest spirit of them all is just a man and I think the simplicity of the character is what makes him so ominous that plus the resonance of his voice and foot steps. The artist captured that perfectly.

There is one obvious way to improve this. Make more! Seriously though, as everyone says this is amazing.
