Blind Reaction: The Legend of Vox Machina Season 1 Episodes 1-3

hello everybody flamin shark back with another video and today we are jumping into a new series on the channel and this one's an interesting one i don't know much about it i do know a tiny bit about it but what i know about it actually has nothing to do with the series itself but this is the legend of vox machina could be meshina but i imagine it's pronounced machina um so this is apparently an animated series uh an amazon original based on a uh dnd series that i believe been streamed on either twitch or youtube or maybe both called critical role which was done by voice actors and actresses and those care those uh and i guess this had at some point had like a gofundme or kickstarter one of those type of things and made a lot of money to be turned into an animated series and whatever the point is is that the show's getting an animated series now i don't know anything about it but i've heard good things not a lot but i've heard good things uh and that's pretty much the extent of what i know i know that this series is really long that that it's uh the the or see well yeah i guess it would be a series but the dnd um uh was a campaign jesus christ i've never played dnd so i'm not very familiar with the terminology but i know that it's very long we'll see how how far that it gets adapted and everything i believe it's still ongoing to this day if i'm not mistaken um should be interesting i i kind of wanted to do this because i thought hey look amazon making another animated series that's cool uh and it sounded interesting now i don't like i said i know really pretty much nothing about dnd uh but i mean i imagine because it's dnd i imagine it will be fantasy themed in some degree and yeah i'm i'm pretty curious you know it's interesting because this will be this is will most likely be the arcane replacement slot too if i had to guess i'm not positive on that yet but um i'm recording this uh at one am on what is in the morning of february 25th 2022. so yeah i'm recording this and i will have probably recorded the whole the whole first season before you guys see any of these videos i'm doing episodes one to three i'm gonna do one to three four to six not seven to nine ten to twelve i know that these episodes were released in sets of three they released three episodes a week over the course of a month and that was how the series was released so i figure i will watch them in that um you know i thought about doing a similar thing with arcane but what i ended up deciding with arcane was the episodes were a little long and i just saw this episode was 27 minutes which is a little bit longer than the normal episode from my understanding they are more or less around the normal length though so i was like okay yeah sure i'll do three episode sets and and i imagine that will probably work out well um i imagine that there they'll be pretty good stopping points uh however it's structured but i'm looking forward to this i know nothing about the show itself i know nothing you know i just know that it's based on a dnd series from either twitch or youtube or both uh called critical role which was by voice actors and actresses and they'll be reprising their characters and stuff in this that's pretty much the extent of my knowledge and it's an amazon series so it will probably be on youtube not a guarantee but um you know invincible i had no issues with so i'm i'm hoping that it'll be the same thing with uh vox machina uh yeah so it's called the legend of vox machina i assume that's the name of one of the characters of the show will have to see or probably the main character um but it also could be like their group or whatever we'll have to see i don't know i mean it's dnd so i imagine like it really could be anything outside of being like fantasy it could pretty much be about anything so we'll have to see what this is i'm looking forward to it though going in pretty blind to this one uh usually i am to be fair but sometimes i like this one i didn't even get a lot of hype for it was just something that i heard about and i and and i know i you know a few people have brought it to my attention anyways but something that i heard about was like huh that sounds kind of cool why not so yeah let's jump in to the legend of vox machina in three two one and play so we have amazon original i think we're gonna be seeing more and more of that in the years to come in another realm stood the majestic kingdom of taladore taldorium it's the battlefield of gods and titans it's landscape magic i'm not sure if i want to turn this up or not mystery it was a time of peace until it wasn't until a great evil arrived let's go 115. a brave group of heroes main characters [Music] okay all right all the different archetypes yep [Music] okay then wow yeah it was something yeah that was something all right [ __ ] all of our mercenaries slaughtered like lambs yeah i hate my case again southern uriel i yeah we attempt to capture the beast and use it as a weapon against our enemy that seems like a bad idea we don't even know what the creature is demon elemental and how do you propose literally have no idea lady allura is right oh my god there's an allure send our remaining army beyond the city walls until we know who or what our enemy is we must find more mercenaries and where might i ask the taurian butchers are butchered the murder hobos murdered the director of those are all dead dealers and find someone worthy do not rest until you bring me the greatest band of mercenaries in all of taldori okay and we're about to beat them aren't we quote unquote greatest uh okay so we can already tell this is very much an adult series which i kind of expected given it's a dmd campaign but that's right who's the best yeah strong wins again grog wins huh [ __ ] me why do we always play drinking games with a guy twice our size because it's the fastest way to get drunk obviously nice drunk not me i'm great i think we should go to another another didn't you only have disgusting easy grog we don't waste our time on talking [ __ ] remember i know that voice tavern keep another round for vox machina the greatest band of mercenaries in all the realm wow the greatest oh you couldn't even rescue a cow from a burning man nice so that's the name of the group huh let's keep things civil friend we're not looking for trouble oh i'll bet you everyone knows you're a bunch of pathetic losers i'm only asking okay i can't decide i'm just going to have it really loud i think all righty then the legend of oxmooch united need what an interesting best start [Music] everyone's drunk too nice [Music] this guy just chilling over there oh [ __ ] he's a gun type huh wow you gotta love a classic bar fight can you try to stay out of the way hey come on you tripped over me also i recognize multiple voices in this god is she gonna throw up on someone what the [ __ ] oh [ __ ] why does this happen every time we go out drinking i mean because that's all only what's fun hey [Music] drink it over here drink it huh oh nice judo throw though [Music] yeah i have like none of their names written down frog okay uh [Music] percy the hell man if you want to join in you got to i should have known could you put on some pants and help us yeah what the [ __ ] down there's the tavern key you gotta be shitty oh [ __ ] stop they are pissed first you people drink me dry then you destroy my tavern what is that gnome doing with my daughter oh my it's probably best you don't know oh he's apparently quite good in the sound such a mess absolutely dreadful but i can assure you darling vox mocha will find those results don't even try it manny now well you see we don't exactly have any money on us per se but if you give me five [Applause] you idiots uh hello yes excuse me oh nice nice nice what the [ __ ] i mean we're officially banned from every tavern in amman i can't decide how wild or not loud i wanted a place to live and [ __ ] all for prospects well perhaps if someone didn't accidentally decapitate the last fellow who hired us apologize didn't i he did get the middle finger oh god three silver to our name we need a job anything at this point i mean if protecting carts from swindlers and killing goblins for gold isn't getting us yeah it's my girl i don't know maybe maybe such a great voice actress [Music] ethics are a luxury we currently can't afford hike have you guys ever thought maybe we're not really meant to do this i mean vex and vax only care about themselves [ __ ] you wow just wants to murder everyone yeah pretty much percy barely wants to be seen with us in public and yeah to bed everyone in the realm yes you can say it keyleth i'm not ashamed honestly why are we even together i'm getting some names right because you were paired together for a d journey that's why i'm moping around i have to drain the proverbial basilisk of course you do what the [ __ ] bro hmm wrong oh my apologies that's the mind of the time sometimes what's the matter with you so much is wrong with him this this is our purpose fighting for justice for glory protecting the kingdom and stuff nice most importantly [ __ ] [ __ ] lots of money our money and there your [ __ ] out bro i mean this show is uh certainly adult we're really gonna see the sovereign looking like this oh okay we'll take you in but the bear waits outside yeah we kind of had a quite that quite the [ __ ] it's okay buddy we'll be back soon we'll be back uh bears sad oh lady kima it is imperative lord and lady briar would join us sire white stone hasn't been heard from in months our last messenger never returned i must be warned of these attacks send another guardsman straight away [Applause] what the [ __ ] i'm sorry who the hell are you vox machina you see it's actually a somewhat clever play on words honestly we don't care sire i warned you the notices would attract the scum of iman excuse you i thanks offense means a fool this deadly requires more season greg don't bother with these drunken buffoons guards buffoons clearly you've never heard of the legend of vox oh my god title title just [ __ ] introduction oh girls your excellence tried the best fighters who've adventured far and wide but i promise that you've never met a troop so qualified [Music] [Music] give the council a moment to discuss your curious group you can't be seriously because you're such a crucial teacher sovereign their reputation is less than stellar well they do have a bear it looked quite ferocious and the song was entertaining why what the [ __ ] yeah if they die they die right yeah doubt it i mean let's just go diving uh agar apparently had his hand chopped off in a bar room brawl oh [ __ ] [Music] very well you're hired box machina little did you know that happened lady allura will accompany you to the shale steps the village closest to the last attack so what exactly are we killing and how much are we making we don't know what you're killing but once you kill it all this is yours uh one more question yeah how are we supposed to get there yeah flying a flying pirate ship or not pirate ship a flying ship pretty cool way to get there not gonna lie oh man i am telling you i felt it right there in the throne room i haven't felt that since isn't this [ __ ] oh amazing uh important stuff that's gonna be relevant later in the story whispering like we can't hear you can you mind your business for once gnome mimi as you can see the creature has already raised three villages and miles of farmland if this evil persists the kingdom will starve to death well i mean this mission sounds if it's not a dragon i'm going to be disappointed but it probably will be something else yes this task is dangerous which is why only the most noble heroic and true yeah yeah nobility and heroism is fine and all but we're in this for the money so it's coin over character absolutely anything but hey i mean if we get the job done who gives a [ __ ] right that's what matters i don't know what i think of this show so far it's a whirlwind at the beginning the shale steps are beyond that it feels like they're really blitzing through it right now this up yeah there you go that is how they say you'll be back to pick us up later right no yeah she'll be back no she most certainly will not be back you guys are too good for a woman like that or a woman in general attack was just south of here we're gonna ask around see if anyone knows anything mike greg excuse me green friends have you seen any evil wizards what's your name again can we say it again i might actually look up the names or check subtitles we saw was dark clouds lightning we thought it was a storm oh you didn't see anything huh how convenient mr fisherman if that is your real name okay maybe let me handle the questioning scanlan i'm sorry about him he's an idiot priest of sorts aren't you could you bless our house protect it from this evil uh a blessing yeah yeah yeah sure uh no problem okay here it goes may thee everybody upon your home everything will be tipped up okay i'm sure you'll survive these trying times so good luck wow are you sure you're a holy person yeah i'm just uh out of practice i don't really bless a lot of houses these days thank you dear i'm sure it'll be enough to keep our family safe wow are you a wizard nah the magic's all on the fingers ken yeah wow yeah and now it's in yours that's real silver keep it safe there's a monster roaming about you mean flying what's that something flew right over us hey they're being nice people and they're learning information we couldn't see it in the storm but it was big it's a dragon it's a [ __ ] dragon get over here drink it found something okay the tracks are too muddy to discern but it looks like it took to the air and flew along the coast okay i'm here for that i think you'll be needing this ship probably i like this animation it looks pretty nice i mean we'll see what combat like real combat looks like but like as far as the art style is pretty good it's kind of look to it it's close everyone get ready it's not gonna be what you're afraid of [Music] it's gonna be uh [Music] [Music] [Music] okay so she has some type of sense that's telling her oh there it is that's a dragon yeah oh [ __ ] is the correct response yeah yeah yeah you might look at that extra [ __ ] too good [ __ ] grog [Music] god damn there's like a lightning dragon it looks like and of course that's going to make her all sad i suggest we run right now [ __ ] that we fight i mean this is [Music] he is a dumb brave [ __ ] this is true damn rock's down already come on okay god damn [Music] almost looks like sure again of some kind a little yeah i'm struggling to make out what that name was i don't want to take a guess i'm just gonna after episode one i'm gonna look at the credits i think that should be able to tell me most of it god damn why did you hit him with lightning of all the things that hit a lightning dragon with did i just make it worse yes you just basically charged up his battery i don't think that's gonna hold oh they went oh he went for behind you guys what happened oh my god what the [ __ ] um what the [ __ ] oh get me out get me out and the truck underground's ass lovely oh nice this is what rock bottom feels like at least we're still alive thank the everlight and thanks to keilith for the giant shrub keyless okay to make it so thorny dragon we almost died except we didn't die because of you keyleth you hear me yeah that's what matters most well how the [ __ ] are you gonna take down a dragon nah just a flesh wound no big question yeah that deserves a holy [ __ ] for sure i got you ah okay yeah [Music] nice the healer of the group yeah that took a lot out of me i got you okay but not that strong thanks you're sure you won't put me down now oh yeah uh yeah yeah all right [ __ ] uriel and all of this we're done here we didn't sign up for certain death must i remind you we gave our word to the council that should probably mean something oh who gives a soggy anus about the council the only word i care about i know that's two words but you know what i'm saying yeah what are those [ __ ] folks ever done for us except give us a job and a bunch of gold and treasure and stuff yeah there's that a lot of things but a dragon that's on another level it's not about the council or the contract it's about these people sure protect these people yeah we can't just run away sure this is why i hate traveling with holy people yeah too god i'm good yep it's true they're too good when vax and i were young one of those monsters killed our mother ah that's why i was hoping to find the one that did it i can feel when they're close the horrid pain in my head then it's settled we'll go back to the palace and get out of the contract you don't understand percy i felt it there too at the palace you're just telling us this now saying what the dragon was that that guy that guy on the council was the dragon it's been years since mother yeah are you sure i know what i felt someone on the council must have been in contact with the dragon or i don't know but i i'm sure it was real and we walk away from home yes it's not worth it you heard her one of them might be working with that monster yeah that gets into some really [ __ ] [ __ ] for sure can we all agree on that i don't think so dex and vax have but oh maybe they are damn what are you gonna do like grog yeah you're coming with come on [Music] interesting what's what are we about to see here for the life of me i can now now it's personal for them all of them and they're going to a certain house i literally cannot decide what the volume should be i think i'm going to run with 105 though i think that's correct oh and they're dead and now it's personal are you gonna get the coin back [Music] jesus christ oh that's [ __ ] up hike get over here jesus christ please everlight let your power reach him pike please [ __ ] no i can't do it i'm still too weak from before even worse they're gonna walk oh did he give him back the coin yeah he could have stopped this shoot yeah now it's personal [Music] what the hell are you doing scanlon thinking of a rhyme for dead dragon because i i guess we're killing one i'm in oh i mean i'm not gonna lie him terrified and we're probably gonna die but we're in i don't like losing but now i'm feeling dings on the inside they don't feel right so yeah um wayfair that was actually well stated grog yeah not bad never mind count me in as well you guys we're doing this hell yeah we're going to die a truly horrible death oh yeah but we'll die gloriously and we'll kill a [ __ ] dragon hell yeah okay okay yeah it's yeah ashley johnson that's the name of uh that's the name of uh pike's va i know that one [Music] i actually have the [Music] this is a cool little ev actually uh okay so vex is bow girl yeah i have that but it's actually vex alia okay i'm actually just gonna [ __ ] make new [ __ ] notes for this honestly i'm just gonna start over on my notes here but yeah that was um i'm gonna go 110. it's gonna be really loud for me but i think that's what's that's gonna be best but uh yeah i'm just gonna i'm just gonna do this i honestly should do this more in shows at the end of episode one just take in the names that i need and they got some some interesting names here but um but i'm just writing down all the names but uh yeah that was a really interesting episode uh there's there's a lot to say i'm just taking my time here um um so caleb is the mage okay pike percy okay do i have everyone matt mercer over here voicing everyone trinket i want to say was the name of okay there's scanlon grog yeah grog okay i have a tiny bit of notes to verify after this but i think i got everything i want to say there oh actually yeah let me real quick actually before let i'm make sure yeah okay we're good we're good i just wanted to make sure there wasn't any like uh and credit scene or anything there okay so wow okay so that was episode one of the legend of vox machina um a lot of good a little bit a little bit of bad i'd say but a lot of good um first of all the show is fun right off the bat it's fun it has energy it has character it's it's got it's got flare to it it feel it feels alive right and that's what you're looking for right away is i get i get character i get they feel alive as far as depth maybe not you know we'll see how much depth and how many how much legs these characters have as we get deeper into the story but i'm definitely feeling everything quite a bit i'm definitely vibing with what's going on so far i'm here for it pretty good energy i like the setting again just kind of your typical like fantasy setting they're mercenaries it's cool vibes uh the show is it it's [ __ ] up it's funny it you know it has those vibes it's it's gonna be it's a bit gory maybe it hasn't really been gory but it's been bloody for sure and uh yeah they're they're they're they're kind of [ __ ] they're a [ __ ] misfit group of uh of uh mercenaries that are gonna become that that are gonna live up to that title the legend of ox machina um so that's really cool my biggest thing and i will say and this is weird and i don't know that i don't know necessarily whether this was on purpose or not this episode felt weirdly paced it felt too fast um i i swear to god i don't know what it is about first episodes that i like some of the more recent shows that i've watched like first episodes it's just they i feel like so often they feel like they're going way too fast this was another episode where i watched this episode and they had quite a bit of time right it was a decent length episode but it just felt like it just kept going and going and just wouldn't stop the episode felt way too fast too much happened it felt like i felt like i don't know i don't know like i get i get trying to get to all these plot points here and that was apparently a part one which makes sense because you know they have to go kill a [ __ ] dragon i don't know if they're actually gonna get to that next episode i imagine they're gonna try with the way it's been structured out but that was a really interesting deal and there was a lot of there was a lot of cool stuff that was set up but it just felt like everything like we just like it felt like we were blitzing through stuff and that was a little strange uh i feel like the pacing [Music] hopefully will slow down a little bit um it felt like a little too breakneck for me but other than that that's like my main complaint other than that i'm vibing with this i'm vibing with this i didn't know really what to expect i mean i knew like you know like a fantasy setting would most likely be the case but this is interesting this is interesting not not necessarily from a perspective even though they actually have set up a little bit of overarching story potential but what i really think was interesting was just the dynamic and the vibe and i could see how this is kind of based on a bunch of friends obviously a bunch of uh fellow vas just having fun playing d d right so i could see i could see i could feel that in the actual story itself in the actual animation so that was pretty cool action was pretty decent and yeah i'm looking forward to more i would say that i'm curious to see where i land on these characters they didn't i didn't really fall in love with any characters right off the bat and um yeah i i thought you know kaleth was pretty cute um ashley johnson's one of my favorite voice actresses so so pike's already got something going i liked percy because he's got like the smart boy thing vex and vax both seemed really cool like the characters all seemed like interesting archetypes so curious to see where it goes curious to see what they do should be a lot of fun i'm sure and yeah i think that's all i gotta say it's weird it's weird usually i have a lot to say when i when i dissect the first episode of a show i think what i'm struggling with here is one it felt like a lot so i'm still trying to catch up to that i don't know that pacing was just that pacing shook me like it's not the worst paced first episode i've ever seen i've definitely seen worse but as with many first episodes they try to hook you and it feels like this episode was trying to hook you by just giving you a lot and i feel like it's one of those things where if you really believe in what you're doing you just gotta chill out in that first episode and just let let things come naturally but it was fun they threw you right in which i liked i liked that just getting thrown right into the universe i thought the early scene like the bar scene was great and i thought the episode was going really well and i like hypothetically speaking there was nothing in this episode i didn't like it just felt like they went through a little too much too fast so i don't know maybe they could have did a thing where like the episode would end with them confronting the drag i don't know that maybe structurally wouldn't work i don't know i feel like there was something with that pacing that could have been done differently but um yeah whatever the case may be it was still a fun episode and a wild and wacky introduction into a new universe and we still got 11 more episodes in this season so plenty of time for thing to to iron out whatever kinks i might have uh it looks like we're gonna be jumping into part two uh is this going to be a three-parter is this going to be longer is this just going to be a two-parter i don't know but we'll find out soon enough as we continue on with the legend of vox machina i am going to finish taking notes off camera off screen and then we'll jump into episode 2 of vox machina alrighty i am about to jump into episode 2 of vox machina just wanted to say got my notes on the on box machia we have vex we have vax we have caleth we have pike we have percy we have grog and we have scanlin and i know who each of those people are we'll see how i do with names but i wanted to just take the time after episode one figure out who everyone was try and burn that into my mind hopefully we won't have any more issues yeah you guys know i'm terrible with names so if we have like weird fantasy names or if i'm like watching anime it's japanese names like i am so bad with names even regular names i'm just so bad and i still always end up having weird [ __ ] derps regardless of even if i know the people's names but try to burn those into my skull hopefully that goes pretty well us have more water might actually switch to some soda for episode three i'm kind of feeling soda i very rarely uh drink soda when i record but i'm kind of in the mood but um yeah i'm excited first episode was mostly positive like i said i didn't really have much issue with it it didn't blow me away but it was really charming it was fun i love i love the i love the adult kind of centric stuff i love the i love the language and it was it was a doll and it was you know like foul language and stuff but it was still charming which i think a lot of times when you get into like really foul language you you can lose the charm factor i don't think i think this show from what i saw so far was brimming with charm honestly might be its strongest feature so far so that was on point action seem decent character is still hard to tell it's so early to tell i mean we have archetypes we don't have characters yet so that that that'll grow in time and i'll get more of a feel for what i think of the seven potatoes that make up vox machina but uh anyways let's check out episode 2 which should be interesting i'm looking forward to it these episodes are like slightly longer than the industry standard it looks like but they are pretty close to the 22 minute episodes they're like 25 minute episodes anyways let's jump in episode 2 vox machina 3 2 1 and play [Music] let's get it amazon so i finally figured out the volume i'm gonna go out which is gonna be quite loud for me but not okay that's quite the uh [ __ ] beard bro luke sharp son what is that guy general creek is it true the shale steps fell i and the monster is still unknown but you are the arms of iman entrusted by sovereign uriel with the safety of the realm we don't need to know the enemy know ourselves no matter the danger victory is ours if we fight with honor and raise our swords on high you heard that that's a good speech [Music] little do you know that vox machina is in fact on the job someone broke a thing of garlic so i just smell garlic right now we've got him coming they're not even gonna pierce through the scales at all jesus christ that might be worth a shot don't cheer just yet you idiots you just pissed it off jesus christ yeah you guys are all gonna die or maybe you'll escape jesus christ yeah yeah that was the perfect response [ __ ] honor indeed jesus christ oh my god an opening oh my god an opening holy [ __ ] uh yo it is an opening okay okay she might be able to transform in animals potentially those two putting in work the frame rate's kind of weird but the camera's dynamic and you have the the siblings yep [Music] percy [Music] dude what a what a cool looking [ __ ] if we had to go purely on designs i i think percy's my favorite i really like caleb's design as well the vex looks cool as well and then the string is an interesting visual technique and then them in all different areas and uh yeah yeah that's so interesting like the yep critical role the legend of ox mocking now you have the dungeon and dragons die in the critic for the critical role although very cool what did this the beast is a blue dragon sire only a few of us managed to escape my gods allura you've dealt with such creatures in the past how do we fight it well that was a red dragon years ago but to my experience dragons are fiercely intelligent calculating creatures their machinations run deep ah sir fence finally joins us i hope this crisis hasn't kept you from your stoking i've been gathering intelligence we sorely lack seems your band of fools have gone missing safe to say you've sent vox machina to their doom doom we don't know the meaning of the word well i certainly don't sovereign hold on to your goddamn crown we've discovered that the monster is none other than a blue dragon no yeah did you kill it yep i wouldn't say kill really we're still kind of working on that part i can't believe you made it out alive how did you survive trade secrets i'm afraid krieggy we hid and it flew away wait how did we survive that these blabbering fools are useless sire perhaps if we made an offering to the dragon gold in exchange for peace oh shut up you shake its hand and offered a [ __ ] pint while we're at it a dragon cannot be bartered with if it desires amongst destruction it will not relent yes you know what must be done but what if it attacks the city we'd be sitting ducks what would you have me do let it burn more farmland slaughter more innocence no we will bring the fight to it on our terms oh [ __ ] you may move our soldiers at dawn but sire you know i have made my decision lady oh [ __ ] lady kima huh this council is a jerk i should be writing down their names all right you heard them clearly i'll remember them yeah vex does not trust that boy your offer is still on the table right oh my god they love the bear yo i felt it again that same feeling i had around the dragon there must be a connection there one of them is working with that [ __ ] or is the dragon i bet i bet it's a laura i never know it's the [ __ ] you than me it's probably the guy but maybe it's not it's vince the creepy one yeah piece of scrap leather yeah buy us a weapon that can kill a dragon uh with what we're flat [ __ ] broke please with the way that man dotes on you i'm sure you can work something out the rest of us will split up and search for vince if you find him don't let him out of your sight that sounds like a plan but uh you're not the only one with ideas that isn't that soon all right let's yeah i don't think the bear wants to hear it though when i have one nice bro all right scanlon gilmore's glorious goods okay time for the gay triple g's in this thing i have entered a realm of mystery of magic of marvel welcome to oh my god more than i thought wow magical artifacts at discounted prices nice sandal bro silver platinum why if it isn't the mysterious vaxel dam i was hoping you would swing back yeah max what the [ __ ] what the [ __ ] glad to see you've lost none of your charm or wait oh listen to you don't stop i can't take it just throwing up right your visits oh my yeah hi so are you here on business for pleasure what the [ __ ] touch love we need information particularly to kill them well for 20 000 gold i'll sell you this handy-dandy magic lance of dragon slaying a fantastic bargain we can't presently afford such a weapon but perhaps some advice for a tiny fee hopefully what you're offering isn't too tiny i suppose size isn't everything what the [ __ ] dragons have any weaknesses weaknesses eh well to start their ego maniacs okay being insulted and have tremendous vanity okay you can use that what the [ __ ] hi still here is there any way to stop them honestly there's no simple way to kill a dragon even in tomes of old legends of their destruction are largely poetic drivel damn nice dust bro the worms shall only find defeat in the gorge where the twin rivers meet dragon anatomy is a topic for many a scholar anyone close enough to find out seems to get themselves snapped yeah sorry i couldn't be more helpful but you get what you pay for gilmore this is all very helpful even the [ __ ] can we survive this i owe you dinner you owe me more than that oh my god yeah that uh those two are going to have a long night after they kill this dragon if they do kill a stranger oh searching for fence or something god this is boring oh no and now you're gonna start chasing tail you know where that creepy little taint raisin would be the brothel i knew he was gonna say that yeah we can investigate there for hours if we need to yeah but won't rex be kind of pissed if we ain't doing what she said to i don't give a wet fart what she thinks what's up with you and your websites of this operation bro really that's the second time you made a reference which doesn't seem possible well he's so short that his dick in his brain is pretty close to each other i'm going to the brothel there he is [Music] it's that thin lipped crypt keeper come on yep yeah he he's heard that bird before that one of the first things you guys did when you

to assassinate his ass no they're conspiring you idiot the second floor scanlan and grog search the attic max and i will start here oh maybe we all just go check this out sure why not that seems that seems like a quick uh quick way to go about things it's a lot of scrolls we caught you blue-handed chicken humper drop your blade what no you don't understand i'm not stealing anything of course you're not and that sword isn't to murder general krieg with either right okay i think it is you must listen to me these documents are evidence general krieg is planning [Music] well then hello creek nice bloody technique how do you stay so quiet in that armor oh no he was the one he's the one in league with of course it was me i sacrificed you because there's a bunch of wetlands you know and gives two shites about that's true you've been lucky so far but you have no idea why you have gotten yourself into oh yeah this is a much bigger conspiracy than i thought oh [ __ ] be careful bro

organize look at us we're fox machina we [ __ ] [ __ ] up yeah you do try can we at least go already yeah i think i'm with vex on this one it might be worth it to actually try to be a little organized you know what guys uh good luck i'm just gonna keep a lookout for grabbing yeah yeah yeah you are not getting out of this scandal like you [ __ ] little poor it's so cold what is this place high in the mountains to another area wherever we are much colder so we see and that's a lot of gold this is a [ __ ] oh my god it's the [ __ ] dragon's dead seems excessive for a council member seems excessive not a dragon dragons you know what uriel can keep his paltry payment we're rich hell yeah wait wait wait this school didn't fall out of the [ __ ] sky this is a horde we're in the dragon's lair yep and the dragon's right but also isn't that the dragon ominous yeah i was gonna say is that the [ __ ] dragon you idiot oh [ __ ] i can talk what the [ __ ] is this a dragon did i do that i don't think i did that you didn't do that keyleth don't worry i must say i'm impressed to tell you the truth i was certain you would die the moment you met the mighty brimsay said it seems some famine are hard enough to kill them hello you wanted yuriel to send the entire army out of ammon so your dragon friend could wipe them out the age of man is coming to an end there was a time when dragons ruled all of taladore when we ruled the entire world when we just say we yeah oh my god he really was i was actually called the freaking dragon day well jesus christ not that it was him but i did see the person turning into a dragon thing coming how are you gonna kill this [ __ ] oh jesus ow are you all right yeah you're gonna have to be important in this now damn that is much the fun on the dragon isn't that bad oh [ __ ] yo nice shield i mean i was enough to at least buy you two a little time [Music] give you any insight on how to kill this thing or did you two flirt the whole time [ __ ] right right uh uh dragons are vain arrogant egotistical i know that already i studied them remember well then you didn't really get much info at all you see that we have to get it on the ground thanks do you hear me yes this way all right yep so they have a plan they that the neck is the weak spot yep where the two rivers meet that's really cool actually cool detail maybe we don't fight as one maybe we do what we do best well we're gonna find our best so what do you want us to do run out and yell hey dragon man we don't know what the [ __ ] we're doing yeah oh my god oh my god those faces they were like let's get [ __ ] up and [ __ ] a dragon hey taint smear you're in my way again you ape what you call me maybe i'll squash you too oh my god this is literally their plan preening

a bunch of [ __ ] has its merits yeah souvenir yeah proof we killed the scaly turd you know you're a lot smarter than we give you credit for grog yep oh i'm a genius and maybe you're not a genius after all what now and i was gonna say you need to find your way out yeah smart get some gold before you can leave yeah wait oh the [ __ ] the [ __ ] dick nice oh the coin yo that was actually really cool oh that episode was really good it still felt a little fast but it was heroism i proclaim you all protectors of the realm and honorary members of the council of taladori holy [ __ ] i can hardly believe it myself yeah i've missed respectability yes yes yes that's all fine and good but where is hey the money you never saw what was inside they [ __ ] you uh keys parchment where's our reward you're holding it the deed to your new keep here in imar we need our protectors close at hand to you know protect we'll take that we'll take that house is pretty cool hypothetically if we sold it how much do you think that okay sister we have a home huh oh wait till i tell my father oh this shari will never believe this i bet i'm ruining a moment yeah you're ruining a moment between siblings as protectors you must understand that the threat is far from over we suspect krieg may have been part of a larger plot makes sense i have arranged an important banquet to discuss the security of our realm it'll be quite delightful really yes we have a wonderful cook we trust you will all attend in fact several dignitaries should be on their way important characters in other words that guy looks depressed as [ __ ] what the hell literally never got a wicked briarwood ladybug can you go around it desmond allow me what the [ __ ] that's a cool design her design looks sick too we didn't get a full look of it well ain't this lucky nine looks like royalty to me what do you say gang you made the worst mistake of your life oh he's a fancy one we want everything you and the mrs got unless you want to be gutted like a fish what are you deaf or something empty your pockets jesus christ what the [ __ ] what the hell yeah that was the [ __ ] of the [ __ ] omni man style what the hell and she's just drinking your tea i hope it wasn't too much trouble silas delilah my dear silas and delilah the briarwoods [Music] holy [ __ ] they seem like some pretty wild dignitaries holy [ __ ] i don't know who's more g the dude for just just going through those people or the [ __ ] lady who's just chilling drinking her tea like it's nothing i don't know which one to be more scared of holy [ __ ] terror of taladori that's what it was [Music] um okay i'm gonna i'm gonna write a few names down just don't mind me i'm just taking a okay i got real i already knew who i allure i don't think i need to write down but i'm going to anyways um otherworldly voice nice uh ah yes uh let's see uh i see her where is his name or was his name was his name in the pre in the first set of credits no his name definitely wasn't so maybe it'll be in a third set of credits okay so delilah briarwood what's his name oh it didn't i swear his name literally wasn't in the [ __ ] credits unless actually he probably was on the first page let me go back again i'm gonna find it i probably don't have this on the screen right now so this is probably a really awkward part of the video because i'm not going to edit this out because i'm a potato but um come on get sales yeah silence briarwood yeah i was gonna say cause i could i noticed that matt mercer was voicing a bunch of characters so far so yeah there you go okay all right okay so that was episode two of the legend of ox machina they defeated the dragon that was only a two episode scenario i thought this episode felt a little fast as well it didn't feel as rush is the first episode it still felt that it moved a little quickly um but yeah i don't know it was interesting i liked this episode more than the first episode i felt like this episode um i think we got a little bit of a better grasp as to who these characters are and i definitely think we got some really fun stuff in this episode as well so i definitely enjoyed episode two of vox machina a little bit more than episode one um so this was just like a two-episode scenario this wasn't something that went on for a while this was just an introduction thing sets it up they're the they're the protectors of taladore now and they believe there's a bigger conspiracy going on and we're about and dignitaries are coming over for this dinner which i imagine episode three will be the dinner and we're also so we're gonna get to meet lore i i believe it's i assume it's lord uh well because it's lady briarwood so it's gotta be lord briarwood yeah lord and lady briarwood delilah is the girl and silas is the guy um they look insane and i'm hyped to see what they're all about because they look like they're wild [ __ ] so hyped for them for sure i'm definitely curious to see what the briarwoods are all about and what that's going to lead to in the story i'm sure that'll be very interesting to say the least um yeah i'm really liking percy uh really liking calif she's cute uh vex is cool vax is cool um grog i mean even scanlan i'm liking honestly i'm liking all of them i don't have like an absolute standout character just like instinctually i want to say maybe percy will be my favorite um i feel like out of the group he's instinctually the one that just vibes with me the most i like the cool type he's got the glasses love the gun gun quote unquote like i just his whole vibe is really cool um vex i guess i mean vex is casted first so i guess vex is supposed to be the main character it's very hard to tell because it is very much like a group thing but um yeah i definitely really am having fun with this this is definitely off to a good start um interesting too we've we're setting up a universe um and we're doing it kind of in just the throw you right in and do things and over the course of time we'll build up the universe more so it's interesting i mean we're just focusing on you know vox machina and what they're doing and over time we'll build another stuff obviously percy you know i kind of figured from the way he talked the way he dressed but it seems like he used to have like status um and you know he was like ah this is kind of nice uh to feel this again and uh you know i'll be interested to learn more about these characters like where they came from and as they kind of like build them up in that sense it should be interesting um and given the nature of like what this is adapting i'm very curious how they decide to do that how they plan to do that and how uh you know obviously i won't know because i have not and will not watch the source but uh it'll be interesting to see at least from what you guys explain uh how for anyone who is familiar with critical role like how uh how much it's how much how much of a like a straight uh one-to-one adaptation it is or how much they kind of modify for the different format of being an anime a television show uh or animated i guess streaming show i don't even know what to call television anymore because so much of it's not on tv like this being an amazon series it's on prime as opposed to tv so um yeah very good stuff enjoyed that episode a lot excited for episode three curious for episode three mainly excited to see the briarwoods they look like they're really sick i don't know which one actually i'm more interested in probably the woman but i kind of like a woman who just casually drinks her tea while her husband just [ __ ] murders [ __ ] like left and right but he seemed pretty metal i mean he just put his hand right through that first [ __ ] that was wild so hey i like what's going on vox machina i'm feeling you i'm feeling it this is pretty cool so uh yeah i think that's gonna do it for episode two i think i am ready to jump into episode number three of the legend of ox machina alrighty this episode's apparently called the feast of realms which makes sense based on where we left off episode two so we had a two-parter to start i just noticed that like the title i i swear the titles were not in my files for one and two but my the title is there for this one i got my dr pepper we're going soda action uh for episode three i'm mixing up i rarely do this but i wish it was a tiny bit colder but it's still quite good the only thing about soda is it gets me burpee and i don't like being burpee during videos and also like water is better to keep my voice flowing but that's usually only a problem in when i do my let's play commentaries where i'm just talking like oh like like where i'm doing voices and talking a [ __ ] ton uh if i'm just talking a [ __ ] ton my voice is usually fine so anyways episode three the feast of realms we got we got the briarwoods coming we got we got vox machina in the house we got uriel and allura and like all them people maybe others maybe other new characters something's probably gonna go down this episode's actually a bit shorter than the first two so this is the shortest episode so far but uh let's jump in to vox machina episode three in three two one and play all right let's get it amazon [Music] this is a flashback question mark this is percy [Music] what the [ __ ] [Music] oh jesus [Music] well person's got a [ __ ] up backstory holy [ __ ] jesus christ and somehow he got he got away and survived oh my god yeah this really is a fantasy world holy [ __ ] what the [ __ ] awaking in a cold sweat and yeah you got your new place now you and the rest of the uh box machina yo that mask what the [ __ ] that's creepy as [ __ ] bad dream i mean actually they are but i love saying stuff like that the most inappropriate times this intro is really weird because i love how it's like one like continuous okay that is that was not a continuous shot but it's kind of shot like it's a continuous shot right where it's like although i think yeah just it's just very weird how the camera pants make it rex and backs and they're sorry uh backstory percy got his thing i assumed that was supposed to be the place where he was from where all his family got murdered so it looks like we might be getting into percy backstory interesting hey i'm here for it [Music] all right let's get it legend of vox machina i'm here give it to me third episode good morning everybody oh good morning i wasn't really yelling but she's definitely very excited compared to the rest what the [ __ ] servant i never agreed to the stupid game must you we can't all be aloof tired asses draw i'm simply suggesting you could all benefit from some well-practiced restraints yeah that probably would be for the best maybe you should cut loose once in a while damn hello vox machina are you here [ __ ] hope you didn't feel the need to bring a housewarming present i didn't i'm only here to remind you that sovereign uriel expects you at his dinner oh [ __ ] that's tonight finally a proper evening of protocol and civilized conversation it's more than a party dignitaries from across the realm are here to form a new

as they are beautiful you tag their balls you get three points you have my word nothing will go wrong everything will go wrong his balls are hurting and percy realizes this is going to go horribly wrong i want to see their outfits though okay okay what the [ __ ] oh my god it's a cup remember what we practiced okay those are outfits protocols damn you know that's looking sexy just follow my

let's see what vax finds out i love how vex actually is coming across as a pretty like fancy lady i mean she's too hot to be truly fancy that's like one of the rules although i don't know there's like 20 million accepted that what i just said literally was just straight stupid never mind this poor guy so tired what the [ __ ] oh nice [Music] what the bloody hell [ __ ] snake what in the world damn

stone oh my god the official story is that the city was administered by the derollo family until they succumbed to a rare disease but i'm afraid the truth is we concocted that tale to protect their legacy what the the sad reality is that the rolos abdicated they grew bored of ruling and after their children raided the treasury they abandoned their people to rot thank you sovereign uriel but i think we will retire for the night it was a lovely dinner oh my god it is quite refined damn he's [ __ ] bleeding everything and bro's been [ __ ] in the head already my [ __ ] silas percival darling

quickly go go nobody move turns where we in there oh i was on fire that's pretty awkward yeah that deserves a [ __ ] and that's a perfect way to end the best episode of oxmak i know that you're thinking about me cause your curiosity has been pre-tied i may be 42 inches of 69 feet of freight [Music] nice amazon studios yeah that's gonna do it oh what the [ __ ] just happened that was like the weirdest thing ever oh my god that song is so weird oh my god so weird pull on my [ __ ] beads huh well that was episode three of ox machina uh it was the best episode uh it was the first episode that just felt okay i don't want to say it was a perfect episode it wasn't that good but it was really good this was the best episode of uh box machina so far it it had intrigue it had it really felt like it focused on a character and really like started to build that character up as a character and percy he gave us really interesting villains in the briarwoods that both of them were like compelling and cool in their own way but as a as a duo they were like amazing um it really just gave off great vibes i really liked what i saw out of um delilah and silas and um percy has this like mask and he has like this demon mode i don't even know what was going on there but that was really cool uh we were getting you know vax had good stuff the the briarwoods were able to manipulate uh uriel so now vox machina is getting arrested so now it's a question of like how do they get out of this next time and this definitely felt like the end of like this felt like it was like the finale of the first set so it definitely so it definitely does seem to lend credence to the fact that the release format is also how you're supposed to watch it where it's like you watch three episodes at times which works out perfectly with how i structure sets so everything's going to work out wonderfully here and if this becomes more of a trend in the future it'll play perfectly into the way i like to do these reactions anyways which is fantastic but that was my favorite episode of the set that was easily i think the best episode on the first few episodes with the dragon stuff were not bad at all they were pretty good but i feel like this episode really took things to the next level there was a suspense there was a dread there was a sense of seriousness like everything just felt like the combination like the the show already was reaching a great mix of seriousness and comedy and it just it just all felt right in that episode it didn't feel like that episode was rushed either and that was i believe like i said you know and they're all within a similar length to each other but of the three i believe that was the shortest episode of vox machina so far and it was it felt it didn't necessarily feel longer than the others but the pacing felt slower than the first two and i feel like it felt like the show calmed down for a second but still told a wonderful story in that episode so that was without a doubt the best episode of the legend of vox machina so far in my opinion and that's gonna be a good benchmark episode for the rest of season one because we obviously have three more sets or nine more episodes after this so there's plenty more content yet to come we still have like i said this is just video one of four for my season one reactions to vox machina and i'm so excited to jump into the rest of this this wasn't the strongest first impression i've had of a show but it was a pretty good one i definitely am looking forward to the rest of the show and this was kind of one of those random things i just decided to do i mean it was something that you know i've seen maybe a couple requests i've heard of it but it was just kind of one of those things that i just i was i felt like you know what i'm going to do this show sounds cool i want to try this show and and it was nice to kind of just pick a show a bit more on a whim than normal for me a lot of times it's either planned out way in advance or it's like the most popular thing in the universe or it's um a poll winning show or something you know and this one was a little bit more on a whim this is something that i didn't know i i only found out about relatively recently um a little while before i started recording at least like maybe a month or so and uh and i'm already doing it and uh it's it's left a pretty good impression on this shark so far okay i'm really excited for next set really excited to see what part two has in store uh what we get with uh this continuation with percy and the briarwoods is going to be really interesting i think percy is my favorite character leaving these first three episodes but i really like vex vaxx keyleth is not my favorite character i really like her design and i like that type of character in a more edgy environment is really cool um she reminds me a lot of a similar character with even a similar power from she-ra but the nature of that series in that type of series those characters aren't like great it's like that weird thing right in less edgy series the edgy characters always stand out and in really edgy series the less edgy characters stand out so it's kind of like a weird it's a weird uh juxtaposition uh contradiction almost of sorts that like i tend to gravitate towards edgy characters and less edgy shows and less edgy characters in more edgy shows and this is this show's fairly edgy clearly so she kind of like i was drawn to her and i'm not saying she won't be one of my favorites but i think percy is number one i think vex and vax are two and three i don't know which one i take over the other probably vex than vax then i think pike is probably after that and then i think uh keilith grog and scanlan who i like all of them are probably closer to the bottom this is a very malleable list none of these are like none of these are strong even percy at number one is very like soft and i was just ranking the other potatoes delilah and silas were amazing and i really like allura too so a lot a lot of cool characters already in vox machina that i'm definitely going to be looking forward to and i think this is a really cool project you know there's a lot of really cool projects that we've been getting lately and this is one of those i think it's just a really cool idea and you know the the idea of turning something like this into an animated show is really cool and i'm glad it's happening and i'm glad that i'm gonna be able to experience this with the blind perspective of not knowing anything about it other than like i said the tiny bit i went over at the beginning you guys whether you're new fans of the show or old fans of the uh of critical role or whatever you can experience this and enjoy my reactions with me so it should be a lot of fun and they'll probably be straight to youtube i'm not entirely sure uh i'll i'll be fine by the you know shortly after i record this i'll know one way or another but probably will be able to which would be really awesome as well because that would just be uh that would be great because that's just better for me better for you it's a win-win but uh yeah legend of vox machina huh what a what an interesting show what a fun show this is a really fun show and episode three showed me the narrative potential of the show i feel like one in two showed me the fun what the show is and episode three showed me what it can be and i'm hoping to see more of what it can be in future episodes and future uh sets but uh yeah we're a quarter of the way through season one of vox machina and i'll be excited um like i said i don't have any sets prepared for this i'm just assuming that given how they released it in sets of three i'm assuming that the perfect way to watch it would be to watch it in sets of three so my plan the time i'm recording this i'm just planning to go one two three four to six seven to nine ten to twelve and that should hopefully work out perfectly so uh anyways i think that's going to do it for my first vox machina reaction i hope you guys enjoyed the video i had a lot of fun with this this was an interesting series i i've done a lot of shows i feel like i've done some shows that i could compare to this but i don't think i can i say i've done a show that really has all the elements here because i feel like any show um that i've done that kind of reminds me of this either wasn't an adult show or it wasn't like a fantasy kind of [ __ ] like i can't think of a show that i've reacted to that has like all the elements combined that this show has so it's pretty different from anything that i feel like i've watched on the channel which is great it's always fun when i get to watch something that feels different and unique if you are new to the channel and you found me because of this vox machina reaction i do cartoon reactions i do a lot of anime reactions i reacted to around this point i'm probably close to or even at series 60 this will probably be like series like 59 or 60 i think this might actually even be series 60. i've done so many series i'm doing i'm dabbling into like visual novel let's plays i'm um but like i said i react to tons of anime tons of cartoons um if it's a really really good or really popular anime a cartoon a really popular cartoon i probably either already saw it or i've reacted to it you guys can check my playlists uh on the channel and as far as anime goes i've reacted to it tons of anime and will continue to react to more same goes with this but uh yeah i'm not entirely sure when this will go up it will probably be replacing arcane not entirely sure about that it might replace amphibia that might replace arcane probably arcane or it will probably be in slot 2. um so yeah we'll have to see but i'm definitely looking forward to getting this video up and hopefully you guys enjoy it i will probably have recorded all of vox machina before uh this video goes up and i will confirm that in the comments if i have watched all of vox mocking up pre uh pre posting of this video i will say so in the comments so you'll know one way or the other but um yeah anyways uh that's gonna do it so
