Shawshank || Benchtrio The Multiplayers Au Animation

Check out The Multiplayers fic by CalistaWon on ao3!! :D (Link in description) (also fic recs in replies >:D)

THIS HAS MADE ME SO HAPPY. The fact that this whole thing is based off of a FANFICTION that I LOVE and it’s pretty much completely made by the community?? Everything about this is so cool, and even the little detail of the giant enter key on Tubbo’s keyboard- I just love everything about this and now I want to read The Multiplayers again.

God, that split second of Techno tuning into the stream at the end- just, thank you so, so much. I know he's in the fic but you could've avoided including him, and I'm so happy to see him.

i just noticed you use your fingers to draw these????? major props dude!! thats epic!

Watching this animatic in 2024 hits right in the heart. I miss bench trio,anc watching old animations with them just makes me smile so much i cry. I remember watching this at 4 am with a ranboo lore stream going on in another tab. I love just chilling and remembering the good old times.

This fan fiction is such a comfort fic to me and your style suits the vibes so well!! This has got to be one of my new favorite bench trio animations!

Didn’t know this fic was a thing until I saw this and it peaked my interest. Just spent a few hours binge reading it and omg?? I genuinely feel in love with it?? And ofc I had to come back to rewatch this with some context and it is SO. GOOD. You can see every plot point so clearly just to the point that it doesn’t spoil anything if you don’t know what you’re looking for. The colours used throughout are immaculate and the transitions?? SO clean and done in such creative ways (i.e. the loading screen to Tubbo’s face, the usage of the Discord calls, etc). Yet another amazing animatic, keep up the awesome work! :)))

THE MULTIPLAYERS!!!! i loved this fic when i read it, which was when it still had purpled in it, can't believe it's finally getting an animatic, and from you no less!!

The animation was so good, and they always are. You can always see the dedication it takes to make these, so I thank you for making and sharing your masterpieces!

I love how much of a proud parent Philza looks at 2:10 it's so nice

It would honestly be the most amazing thing ever if the benchtrio formed a band

This is so amazing! Your motivation to animate astonishes me, how do you finish a fully colored two minute animation in 2-3 weeks???

This is incredible!!! And the fact that you use your fingers to draw and create all of this is absolutely amazing too; I can’t even imagine how much skill and practice it takes :) The Multiplayers LET’S GOOOOOOOOO!!! This animatic just captures all of the exciting, happy, and chaotic energy that the three of them have throughout the story and I love it :D

HOLLY SHIT MULTIPLAYERS IS ONE OF THE BEST FANFICKS IVE EVER READ!! CANT WAIT FOR THE ANIMATION

I haven't read this fic in over a year as it was originally recommended to me from Twitter when it was first posted. Never did I imagine I would see it again, in the form of an animatic no less! Of course, as I haven't read it in such a long time my memory of it includes Purpled, but judging by his absence I can assume he was removed for some reason. Whatever that reason be, the story still holds strong even with only three players instead of four. This story was one of the first benchtrio fanfics I ever read and holds a special place in my heart because of it. You've done a fantastic job on this video and it was a pleasure seeing this fic get the recognition it deserves!

I love the part where techno is just watching his screen proud I love this sm

just read a entire fanfic in a few hours after watching then came back to rewatch this is literally so good

I SWEAR THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST VIDEO YOUVE MADE SO FAR, I CAN NOT EVEN PUSH ENOUGH HOW AMAZING AND SIMPLY PERFECT IT IS, THE STORY TELLING, THE AU, HOW DO YOU DO THIS- I COULD GO ON AND ON BUT IM SURE YOU GET IT. I JUST REALLY HOPE YOU SEE THE WORTH IN YOUR TALENT

I had to just go quick read the entire story so I could understand, and technoblades, “THE METAPHORS” part was just so funny to me, also Jack manifold is the best

"How many times have you watched this?" YES
