No one: Not a single soul: Alan: cHeCk oUt tHis rEaCtiOn and dIrEcTorS cOmenTary ukposts.info/have/v-deo/sHyhl26qlp5pqp8.html

The thing I like the most is that, because of their personalities, it's not surprising that these two got into such a big fight. TSC is known to be the defacto leader and reliable, but is not infallible. He can get cocky and make mistakes, and is also extremely stubborn and uncompromising. 'It's my way or the high way' kind of deal. On the other hand, Red is known to be a bit more naive. In the hierarchy, he'd probably be the 'youngest'. He's caring and empathetic, but is very emotional. We see that with his specialty in Minecraft; his animals that he cares about very much, and his priority in the argument, which was that everyone would've been sad and bored. While this is good and balances the group dynamic, it also makes him the most vulnerable. He gets tricked by Purple because he listens more to his emotions than cold rationality. The two of them stand on completely opposite sides of the spectrum, with TSC guided by logic and Red guided by emotions, and that's why they fight so hard; they can't see eye to eye at all. If it was any of the other colours, it wouldn't be this bad. Green has a lot in common with TSC, so while he might raise his voice and they might fight, it wouldn't be THAT bad. Just punch once to vent and that's it. Not an all-out brawl where they're genuinely trying to kill each other. Blue and Yellow wouldn't try to argue, and would likely just try to calm TSC down to focus on surviving instead of the past. The reason TSC and Red go ham at each other is because TSC's stubborn and Red is emotional, it wouldn't work with any other pair.

Red when he has to save his friends: I’m too weak. Red when he has to kill his friends: UNLIMITED POWER

Not sure why so many slept on this episode; it's an amazing display of Red and Orange's personalities; these really are the two of the group who'd start an all-out fist fight over an argument. It's phenomenally drawn.

It was honestly haunting to see two of the stick figures fight for real, with no friendliness behind it, ignoring the beauty around them. I feel like Alan would have made a really interesting point on the nature of rage, friendship, and desperation if I had not been in the process of being blown away by the animation.

Creeper: I'm bout to ruin this man's whol- Orange: *Shut*

Creeper: Beginning Self-destruct in 3-2-1- Orange: I dont care

1:47 I love the detail when TSC throws a husk, another husk pauses and thinks of it's life choices, it was like "uh, should we be really fighting these players? They seem very strong"

I still can't believe that, with *no* dialogue, we got to see a fully realized argument with points on both sides morph into a knock-down, drag-out, no-holds-barred *FIGHT-fight* between…*checks notes* two stick figures. Visual storytelling at its finest!

2:17 Creeper: **is about to explode** Orange: "not now"

Moral of the story: You’re not yourself when you’re hungry Have a snickers

You KNOW its a serious fight when Red doesn't even take the time to gush over the axolotls

This was the first AVM short that actually made me cry. Just watching these two, who have been friends for so long, argue and fight, I just couldn't handle it and cried at stick people in minecraft.

red and orange: are hungry also them: *fights like they have full energy*

This episode shows TCS and red's friendship perfectly. In the begining of animation va animator/Minecraft red was shown as the first villain (possesed but you'll understand the context), and TCS saw this as one of His friends betraying him and the others. Red the grew to get along with the others as the odd one out. TCS is the protagonist and had to awaken His power, blue Is the alchemist, green Is the musician, and yellow Is the redstone expert, eventually red grew to be the animal caretaker of the group. The there Is purple, at first, the only ones who had met him were green and blue, yellow, TCS and red didn't understand the danger he could put them in until now, TCS saw him as a villain in episode 21 but everyone else thought that he could be reedemed,and red was the first one to show this and fearlessly aproached purple. Finally this episode shows that despite the fact that TCS and red have grown a friendship bond, that doesn't change the fact that they still have some beff for eachother, and they show this with no dialogue or facial expressions. Great job Alan, I'll wait happilly for the next part.

I want someone to transcribe their argument. Actually imma do it myself. Red: Ugh, I'm starving.... TSC: Same, but we gotta keep going. Red: * about to cry * TSC: Do I have to care for you like a baby?! Red: WE'RE ABOUT TO DIE! TSC: And because of WHO, huh? You're the one who convinced us to go into another of these damned portals when we could've gone back to our home and just chilled! Red: At least we got to have fun this way, what would we do at home? Die of boredom? TSC: Doesn't change the fact we're 'boutta DIE from that choice, and we don't even KNOW what happened to the others! Red: Remind me whose idea it was to combine three beacons? Oh right, YOURS.

0:20 this was the most amazing discussion i've ever witnessed

The weirdest part isn't the hunger logic, it isn't seeing stickman in Minecraft, The weirdest part is how that person wasn't playing in full screen mode

I LOVE orange and red’s fight not just because the animation was fire but that they both had a reason to be angry at each other and blame each other. They’re both hungry, lost, in the desert, & both of their actions caused them to be there in the first place. Fights like these are my favorites because you don’t know who to root for. Fights that really make you question who’s right? Or who’s wrong? But I love it even more because there’s no victor. They end up not saying anything at the end & just sit there admiring the view.

I don't know why, but it made me ache seeing Red try and run away from TSC. He was over the fight, or relized he wouldn't win, and tried to run away. But TSC was relentless.

Alan I’m going to be honest these videos honestly always surpass my expectations every single time the intricate fight scenes using the mechanics of the games in the most creative way possible, the time and effort that goes into writing these beautiful meaningful stories without a single word being said along with the lovable characters that you’ve made along with their relationships to one another. This episode really blew me away because it has all of what I said, the intricate fight scenes, the creativity, the beautiful scenery, and the relationships between these stick figures because this is one of the few times we actually see the sticks have conflict with one another to the point where they fight eachother willingly! THEY HAVE AN ARGUMENT WITH NO WORDS BEING SPOKEN! I could go on for about an hour and a half talking about all the things that make this series so damn wonderful but my fingers are getting tired and I don’t want to drag this on too long. So I just want to say Alan Becker you and your team have made something truly great and spectacular to me this is one of the greatest animated series to be made on UKposts I wish you and your team the best of luck with all your careers and hope to see more of these in the future!

One of the things I love about this episode is that it's so rare to see a full-on knock-down drag-out fight between these characters. Like, obviously they fight for fun, but here they're really going at it.

Orange has clearly been shaken but all the past events, death, suffering, and horrors they had to witness, and Red is notorious for not really thinking before acting, and rushing into action. Obviously putting them together alone in a very unfortunate situation would result in a bit of a fight, where while both have reasonable arguments, that ultimately doesn't matter, as they end up duking it out. Duking it out so well, in fact, that the poor mobs must have been pretty confused, and a bit scared. Kinda funny, not gonna lie. Poor Alex though, that must have been pretty freaky to witness- But, as always, the characters figured out a natural and creative way of traversing between computers. Wow!

i really appreciate how they both stop fighting in their blind rage when they see how beautiful the cave theyve ended up at is

that fight between red and orange was just amazing in so many levels. animation, emotion and the story behind it. i'm blown away by how these stick figures can make me feel! i'm so glad i decided to finally catch up to this beloved series again. it was just such a huge conflict between friendships because of the stress they were under and the lack of the others' presence (they would de-escalate it or the fight never wouldve happened) it made me feel some type of way

Orange and red: *starts fighting* Meanwhile, healthbar: aight see you soon

Red: "This is your fault!" Orange: "No, this is YOUR fault!" Red: *so you have chosen death* Orange: *so you have chosen death*

i can’t imagine how terrifying second must have been in red’s eyes once he was fully agitated, i wonder what could’ve happened if they hadn’t stopped at the right time

the most favourite part that I don't see enough about, is the fact that BOTH OF THEM have swords, yet never use them, shows how much they care for each other even when angry

Imagine playing minecraft and spotting 2 stickfigures who have no relation with the game, they jump out and mail themselves to an unknown person. Nobody's gonna believe you at school, Alex.

Alexcrafter28: tries to hit Red and Orange with the mouse Red and Orange: don't cite the deep magic to me witch, I was there when it was written

I know I'm late but I really just have to get this out there, this is defently one of my favourite episodes, while I wait for new episodes (which one is coming out today at my time) I always come back to this one and watch it. I'm a sucker for good charecter development, this fight really needed to happen between the both of them. And most people in the comments keep agreeing that it was more of SC's fault, I really don't think it was. And either way even if it was or wasn't more of his fault or Red's fault that wasn't the point of this episode, the point of this episode was for both of them to let out their anger and frustration for everything that went wrong and learn that it doesn't matter who's fault it was, it matter for how they'll get through it. Both of them had good reasons to be mad at each-other, Sc was mad for Red's recklessness and not thinking before going into unfamiliar places and pulling everyone along with them but he had to realize that Red is a really free-spirited person who just wanted to have fun and adventure a bit more since he thought they haven't done anything crazy and fun for a while outside they're normal place and thought everyone should join with him. And Red was mad at SC because he kept drowning that free-spirited nature he had and thought he wanted them to get bored to death because his "intuition" was telling him it was dangerous but he had to realize that SC was really traumatized from all of this and really couldn't handle it anymore but everyone kept insisting that they should have fun when all he wanted was to just be safe. I mean before all of this with purple we see when they went through most of the portals he was always the one on guard never taking a break especially in that episode where blue or green I don't remember who went to get some beetroot in the nether and they went after him and the others were just walking normaly and being calm while SC was freaking out and had his sword out.

It seems that Red is one of the most skilled in melee, but if we talk about physical strength TSC is the strongest (He killed a creeper in one hit with only two hunger bars) apart from TSC being the best adapts to his opponent's combat style, because as the combat progressed, TSC was gaining advantage and would surely have defeated Red in that blow before the scenario in which they were stopped them

Red and orange: Are literally starving Also red and orange: Proceeds to beat the crap out of each other

Creeper: im gonna end this man's whole career Orange: *ONE PUNCH MAN INTENSIFIED*

1:28 That backhand to the creeper was sick

can we just appreciate how Red is the only one who ever comes close to beating TSC in a hand to hand fight

Orange: *oneshot a creeper* Steve with Sharpness V Netherite Sword: This is bullshit

4:54 Red was like: "Get a load of this guy"

Red: Orange....I'm running out of hunger....I don't know if I can continue anymore... TSC: *sighs* Your acting like such a baby! 'Oh I'm Red! and I'm hungry and cold waaaaaah!' Red: *looks up at Orange and then scowls as he stood up* I'm sorry, circle face, but are you forgetting that we are literally stuck in a stupid desert with no water or food, and we might likely die here?! TSC: And who's fault is it that brought us here? Oh yes, you did Red! I never wanted to go on this adventure! if you guys had just listened to me, we would be safe in Alan's desktop still! Red: Oh yeah, great idea wise jerk but your forgetting something! we were actually having fun at parkour before! and if we did things your way, how long would that comfort last until we get bored with nothing to do?! we are not mindless programs Orange! TSC: And look how that turned out! look how your longing for adventure got us where we are! and we don't even know if our friends are still alive or not! Red: *growls and slapped pictures away.* You want to play the blame game Orange? fine! what about when you wanted to use those stupid beacons huh?! do you think that maybe....just maybe it was your stupid idea that brought us in this desert?! TSC: *He makes a scream of anger as he punched Red.* I've grown tired of this nonsense! Red: *Red falls onto the sand, and slowly got up, turned around and glared at Orange.* So.....that's how it's going to be Orange? TSC: *Orange glares back at Red* Yes Red, we are doing this right now. Red: Bring it on then circle face! *Orange and Red then started their epic brawl.* *In the midst of their fight* TSC: Die Red! Red: Not after I take you down first! TSC: At least I didn't try to kill my friends when I discovered this Minecraft game! Red: That wasn't me! It wasn't my fault! TSC: Yeah sure it isn't! Your no better than the King! your no better than Purple! your no better than the Dark Lord! Red: You know that's not true! TSC: It certainly seems that way to me! You have the same color as the virabots! Red: Shut up! *runs for the tree* TSC: *Crushing a zombie underneath his foot* Get back here! Red: No! TSC: Red I am so sick of you! *attempts to punch Red but they fall down the sand hole* *They scream all the way down, and then started cursing eachother as they fall down the hole and down onto the minecart and into the water.* *Struggling for air, they fought and chased eachother through the water, until they found air. And TSC started drowning him.* TSC: Drown! just die already! Red: *Hits him with his elbow and runs away.* TSC: Get over here! *TSC chases Red up the vines.* Red: Stay away from me! TSC: Get over here so I can beat your red head! *They climbed onto the wooden mineshaft* Red: Please don't- TSC: You are so dead- wait a minute.... *TSC looks around.* Where.....are we? Red: *Looks at TSC then looks around.* We are....not in the desert anymore? TSC: *lets go of Red and makes a sigh.* It would seem so... Red: *Looks away from TSC and sits up.* TSC: *Calms down and thought about what Red said before and sighs. He scoots closer to Red* TSC: Red... Red: Yeah Second? TSC: I'm...I'm sorry...I'm not trying to prevent you from having fun....your right, we are not mindless programs...I just want to keep us safe....and I feel like I should've tried harder to keep us together. Red: *Red feels TSC holding his shoulder.* I know Second....but you couldn't have seen this coming. TSC: Neither could you, Red... Red: *Holds TSC's shoulder. Until he feels his stomach growl. He holds his stomach and makes an annoyed groan.* I don't know if I even care that I'm hungry anymore... TSC: *He feels guilt sting his chest as he sighed as he took some fruit from a plant, he offered it to Red.* Red...I'm sorry for calling you a baby before...for being hungry, I'm just frustrated with the situation that we are in...and it was wrong of me to take it out on you like that. Red: *Red was reluctant at first before he took the fruit and he eats it. Before he says.* I already forgiven you, Second.

I like how tsc still keeps his cartoony little effect. And not going full tco. 1:50 Like here how orange has his arms cartoonishly angry

I love that the argument was animated so well that I understood every single word that they weren't saying XD

I've a theory: The stick figures only take Minecraft damage when they are actively using Minecraft items. Since TSC and Red are not using Minecraft weapons, they do not take Minecraft damage. They may feel the effects, but won't actually lose hearts. The same could apply for drowning damage, falling damage, and starvation damage. It's definitely not a watertight theory, and most irregularities are probably plot armor/rule of cool/stick-figures-bend-the-rules-of-their-world/etc., but interesting to think about.

Blue and yellow: builds a farm to feed a big animal Red and Tsc: beats the living heck out of each other

Rewatching this I notice how Red for 80% of the fight was running from TSC. Makes me imagine he never wanted to fight especially from how aggressive TSC was from the start of the entire situation.

I like how in the whole fight, they never take damage once. It means that they are doing the same "play fighting" that they always do. They might be angry and frustrated with each other, and fighting to try and settle the argument, but they don't actually want to hurt each other. It's a nice touch.

Purple: you shouldn't be here Red and orange: neither should you

I love how red tried to flee instead of fight TSC because he didn't want to fight but just get away from any altercations

1:10 For real though, don't mess with Orange and Red when they're mad, Orange HUNTS RED DOWN throughout that desert, as they both effortlessly decimate any mob willing to get in the way of the fight. Even underwater and in a minecart, EVEN ORANGE doesn't think about the dangers that could happen. They fight non-stop to the death all because of an argument (a good one in my opinion). I absolutely love these characters, even though this is the only series I've watched out of many. And this is as far as I've got so far. Amazing work, Alan.

6:09 *Come and Get Your Love starts playing* Purple: “Hey!” Red & Orange: “Hey!” Purple: *double take* “What!”

I love how Red just plucks Alex's arrows out of the air so casually. It really showcases just how much better at fighting the stick figures are than the Minecraft avatar human players are given.

I love how while fighting each other, they also fight the mobs like "STOP I NEED HIM ALIVE SO I CAN KILL HIM"

I like how during the whole fight neither of them pulls out their sword because they don't want to fatally hurt each other

yellow and blue: *uniting for a good cause to save a village and stuff* SC and red: *hangry fight noises*

purple: "you two shouldn't be here..." orange and red: "neither should you."

1:48 i like how the husk at the very far right was like "are we suppose to swarm these dudes or run for our dear life?"😂

Bro watching Orange and Red argue using drawings was hilarious 😂.

Stick figures when pissed: "Hunger is a fallacy"

At 1:38 it’s hard to see but TSC throws an arrow at the skeleton behind red.

I just like because it shows that Red is stronger than TSC, but does not has the same willforce, he does fight for fun and for his life, and nothing else

1:08 What the characters say : Orange : am I dreaming or are you behaving like a baby ? Red : we're going to starve here ! Orange: it's because of you that we're in this difficult situation, we should have stayed there instead of going through the portal ! Red : I prefer to go for the parcour than to be bored with nothing to do ! Orange : because of you, we're stuck here and we don't know where the other 3 are ... Red : I remind you that it was your idea to have merged the 3 beacons !

Sending them self to Alan’s pc with the mail is a genius move

i love how they didnt even notice there are *2* blue axolotls! 2:48

Yo Orange was raging like crazy near the middle - But at the same time was crushing the mobs somehow. Alan Becker, In all of your animations, You have accomplished capturing friendship, battle skills, arguments, and basically minecraft x life (or computer life lol) All in Animation. I'm still amazed, even watching older ones over and over again.

I love how red was so scared of Alex’s cursor, he has prior experience with cursors. While SC just slaps it. It’s little details like that is what improves the video.

The storyline of this entire this is a absolute masterpiece, even with not a single word spoken

I love how during their fight red and orange either beat up the mobs,use them to fight, or just ignore them entirely

2:42 blue axololt

It's amazing how two stick figures fighting each other because of hunger, desperation, and despair has more emotional resonance than the majority of blockbuster films these days. I have grown to genuinely care about these little guys. It broke my heart watching these two brothers beat each other up, the whole time I'm like, "No stop, please don't do this to each other." Alan, you are an excellent storyteller. Your animations are phenomenal and so detailed, but they wouldn't be as powerful without your talent to connect us to our favorite little stick figures.

Orange and Red: start arguing Orange's hunger: Adios

No one: Orange: *Kills creeper with fist in one hit*

Petition for Glow Squids to actually Glow with real light while turning the glow on and off periodically but keeping the brightness of their textures

Yeah, the fight was cool, but are we not gonna talk about how orange literally one hit KO'd a creeper out of anger?

Red & Orange: Starving Also Them: Blaming & Fighting as usual

Strength: Red {I feel like I saw him use a lot of brute force and barely any tactics} Speed: SC Durability: I'd say both {Tie} IQ: SC { Red Mindlessly followed purple without acknowledging the dangers} Battle IQ: Tie Experience & Battle Exp: Red, { Technically Red came from a website long before SC was created by Alan, check AVA IV to see what I mean if you're new} Power: SC { Though he can't use his awoken form all the time, I'm still counting it Again check AVA V Skill: SC Combat: SC { AVA IV he out combated all 4 of his friends} Reflex: Red { Check the Lucky block episode, The shit there was insane Area awareness: SC { 2:16-2:18 SC Grabbed the vine which shows he's more aware of the Area Agility: Red Dexterity: Red Raw Power: SC { SC can like....... Talk, Go check AVA IV & V Knowledge: SC {SC knows more about the outside world than red so I guess I'll count that} D.C: SC A.P: Red Tactics: SC { The fight shows that he uses more than just throwing arms, some of the tactics SC used was a head butt 1:11, grabs red's leg 1:35 and he slams red into the spider 1:37} Winner: SC High Diff 12-9 {Red might be Stronger, Bodily quicker, and More Experienced, But SC is simply just A better Tactician, Smarter, More Powerful, More Aware of any danger coming his way, SC is Just simply The Second coming and that is why he wins this fight.

When in a fight you realize that they even use their dangers to kill each other, you know VERY well that the fight is serious. Honestly, one of Alan's fastest, closest and most brutal unnecessary fights.

2:17 Creeper: "Ima kill you" Orange: "SIKE" *Uses uno reverse card*

2:02 orange and red: **starts fighting** sun be like: **"aight imma head out yall"**

Looking over the argument, Red is the one at fault. Yes, TSC's plan led them to being stuck in the desert, but it came from Red wanting to do the parkour. TSC got them out of being stuck in a never ending loop while being chased and hunted down. Also, Red has no real way to confirm that they would even die of boredom if they went back. We have seen the League of Legends video, Pokémon, and even Mario. Plus you have the whole Internet to explore as well. The only argument Red has for why they should have gone through the portal and not back home was a fun parkour map they can do. They can make their own parkour map back home. They have made an epic roller-coaster and several build battles for entertainment as well. Red is clearly the one to blame for them ending up in this situation as the leading cause of why it came about.

0:23 Red is so cute as a baby.

Orange and red: [Have a big fight.] Also them: [Don't starve to death.]

Red and Orange: escapes using mail* Purple: Ayo wtf

The "player" interaction part gave me a literal heart attack because I still have that tent/night sky background that was so freaking surreal.

Everytime Red and TSC go inside the lush cave it reminds me of how the comminity keeps fighting instead of realizing how far the game has got.

I love how they illustrate what they're arguing about so that us bystanders can understand them flawlessly. Great storyboarding and writing.

No one: Not even a single soul TSC and Red: *Doesn’t take fall damage*

I love how at the beginning, you can tell they are arguing about who’s fault it is that they are trapped in the dessert.

I love how blue and yellow worked together and never fought when they were lost but red and orange are going at it😂

The fight of Red and Orange was so good that hunger logic went like "I'll allow it."

2:18 *Creeper about to explode* Orange: *Smack* "I'm too busy fighting to deal with you"

A Stick Figure is 1.89 MB. That's got to be a record for the world's smallest sentient AI file size. And on top of that, two sticks in a single EMail don't increase the size of the attachment- now that's compression!

Mobs in the background when Orange and Red were fighting: "What they doin over there?"

Creeper: I’m gonna get ya- Orange: Shut up.

I think orange backfisting a creeper is the most satisfying thing to ever be seen in this show

This isn’t even a short this is a cinematic masterpiece

Everyone: "great story", "understand everything without a word" etc. Me: why Alex plays in small window???

I thought that the fact that red could hold his own against tsc in a fight when he used to demolish the others all at once was weird, but then i realized that red is the most emotional, the "youngest" of the group. he's used to using anger to win fights and can't fight as well when he's not mad at his opponent. and tsc is the leader, he is the most logical and smart out of them all. (except yellow, but he can still act silly, he's just got technical know-how.) tsc can't fight as well when he is clouded by emotions, they are a hinderance to him, and a help to red. thst's what balances them out. this concludes my ted talk.

Breaking the 4th wall is what started this series but you keep managing to do it in new ways
